Chapter 623: Chapter 28 White Wolf God

Command Tower, highest Command Room.

“The advance is progressing smoothly.”

Looking at the map, where the goblin control zone is expanding in all directions, Richard felt very pleased. Once, he was part of one of those map arrows, but now he was the one drawing them. “Yes, my lord. Your foresight in positioning the elite squad is remarkable; these soldiers, who have undergone advanced modifications, are proving to be immensely effective behind enemy lines.”

Beside Richard, an old goblin displayed admiration. Over the past week, more than five hundred House Master-level targets have been assassinated by the elite squad. With their command lost, the goblins have encountered almost no resistance, advancing significantly and simultaneously annihilating tens of thousands of werewolf samurai, while detaining tens of thousands more.

In fact, within the Military Department, there have always been differing opinions about the use of modified goblins. However, because Richard spoke out personally as a Divine, the goblin modification combat model developed into what it is now.

But now, with the results achieved, these discrepancies should naturally dissipate.

“Special methods during special times,” Richard shook his head and replied, “If all soldiers could undergo advanced modifications, I wouldn’t need to form any squads; I could just deploy the entire army.”

After speaking, he snapped his fingers and his body appeared in the laboratory.

After so many days, his strength has been fully unleashed. His Rule Body has now fully integrated as well.

At this moment, Richard, except for being somewhat lacking in advanced witchcraft, has reached the pinnacle of a Four Rings Great Wizard. Some simple witchcraft, he can even cast instinctively without the need for a magic model.

Once he completes the Life Rule, he can apply to the Physique Crown Throne for a method to reconstruct his Rule Body, thereby advancing to a Five Rings Great Wizard.

In the laboratory, Bai Zheng guarded the Young Master of the Quan family, intently observing the reactions of the Young Master’s body.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the laboratory, the returned Inhardt was cultivating new Black Crystal Insects–decoding the bloodline of Black Crystal Insects only requires a body carrying the Life Core, Inhardt himself does not need to stay in the Divine Palace Laboratory.

Approaching the Young Master, Richard examined the Young Master’s bodily state.

“Hmm! The evolution is quite fast.”

In Richard’s perception, the structural transformation of the Young Master’s body has ceased. After the bloodline awakening, the Young Master’s physique had reached the threshold of a Third Level creature, and his body form was nearly identical to the White Wolf King Richard had seen in the Soul Space.

A majestic body, fur shimmering with white and gold, a handsome wolf head… He was practically a miniature version of the White Wolf King.

If Richard hadn’t intervened, the moment the Young Master’s bloodline fully awakened, his soul would have been devoured by the White Wolf King, and the ancient White Wolf King would have returned to the world through his body.

But alas, facts are not hypothetical.

“Speed it up slightly.”

Richard took a bottle from his pocket, filled with golden Mayfly Essence. He dripped two drops into the Young Master’s nutrient solution, immediately triggering a faint Energy Wave from within the Young Master’s body.

Richard felt nothing, but Bai next to him keenly sensed the Young Master’s surging Life Radiation.

Buzz!

Along with a violent Magic Wave, the Young Master opened his eyes.

“Master.”

After his eyes opened, the Young Master immediately bowed to Richard.

Richard nodded slightly: “Hmm, no movement from the Residual Soul, right?”

“No, it has remained stable for this period.”

“That’s good, come with me. I need to extract that Residual Soul from you. After the extraction, you’ll participate in a ritual. I’ll integrate you into the Miracle Divine System, and you’ll act as my Subordinate God, spreading faith in this world.”

Richard’s words contained too much information unknown to the Young Master, but it didn’t matter if he didn’t understand, all he needed to do was agree. Since he had already pledged loyalty to Richard as his Master, he naturally had no reason to refuse his Master’s requests.

“Yes, Master.”

…

The White Wolf King’s soul originates from the bloodline and is thus fundamentally linked to the soul of the Quan family Young Master. This characteristic allowed the White Wolf King, upon completing the soul takeover, to adapt to the body swiftly, changing the body while also entangling his soul with the Young Master’s.

“Somewhat troublesome.”

After confirming the status of the Young Master and the White Wolf King’s soul, Richard felt slightly troubled. Even for a Soul Wizard, handling the Young Master’s situation would be considered extremely challenging. And Richard was only a half-baked Soul Wizard who had studied Soul Witchcraft.

Solving this problem himself would be akin to looking for fish in a tree.

However, although Richard couldn’t resolve the issue from the soul witchcraft level, as a Great Wizard, he could still address it through the use of power.

The soul of the White Wolf King within you is entangled with your soul. My skills are insufficient, and extracting this soul would definitely damage your soul. That’s something I don’t want to see.

So I have a compromise.

Let the soul stay inside you indefinitely, and periodically I’ll wash away the White Wolf King’s personality. Once your spiritual power has roughly reached the Third Level, you can devour the White Wolf King’s soul yourself.

This way you enhance your strength without any risk.

Upon hearing this, the Young Master obediently nodded: “I don’t understand this stuff. Whatever you say, I’ll do.”

“Then for now, I’ll notify them to prepare the ritual. In a while, I’ll give you a piece of magic equipment to temporarily prevent you from being attacked by that Residual Soul.”

“Thank you, my lord.”

Richard took out a crystal stone communicator and relayed the message of the preparations for the ceremony. Under his command, the logistical goblins in the Floating City immediately got busy.

Enthroning a Subordinate God, this was the first time since the Miracle Sect was founded.

This historic moment would surely be recorded in the history of the goblins. Any mistake might make them a joke passed down through the ages.

As the protagonist of this ceremony, the Young Master still didn’t know what this upcoming ceremony meant. He was still discussing with his closest subordinate about what happened during his slumber.

“Bai, what modifications has the lord performed on you?”

Bai was silent for a moment, then replied, “…Currently, only some physique enhancements, but according to the lord, there should be other modifications after you grant me blood.”

The Young Master noticed something was off with Bai, as if he had something unspeakable left unsaid.

“Did something happen?”

“…It’s nothing, I just participated in a lord’s subordinate’s experiment. I find it a bit hard to accept her experiment’s results.”

“Experiment?”

“That woman in the laboratory who looks a bit like a bug, you should remember her, right, Young Master?”

“I remember.”

“That woman used my… reproductive cells to cultivate some hybrid creatures.”

“Reproductive… cells? What is that?”

“You’ll know later, let’s put on some clothes now.”

Bai’s reminder made the Young Master notice that due to his body’s development, his clothes had been shed.

“Ah? Quickly, get some clothes, why didn’t the lord tell me about this earlier!”

Bai looked at the Young Master’s body, now covered with fur twice as long as a typical werewolf’s, and thought to himself, “…He probably didn’t think you were unclothed.”

Three hours later, wearing a black robe, the Young Master was led by a goblin priest to the scene of the enthronement ceremony. On the way, the goblin priest explained what the Young Master would do next.

In the canons, this ceremony would be depicted as a mythical scene. Auspicious signs would fall from the heavens, golden lotuses would spring from the earth, ancient heroic spirits would come to cheer, but in reality, this ceremony had only a sufficiently spacious venue, a rectangular array, and a group of goblin priests as the audience.

The enthronement ceremony was also very simple.

Those miraculous signs would be added into the video materials during post-processing.

Under the guidance of the priest, the Young Master stood in the center of the array. Immediately, a layer of dark red light enveloped him.

Then, the Holy Spirit Ben appeared.

Ben used Holy Light to form a long divine stairway, and at the end of this stairway–within the sun in the sky, Richard’s figure slowly emerged.

He stepped on the stairway to the Young Master’s front, the Holy Light dispelling the ominous dark red glow.

Subsequently, the Young Master knelt on one knee, and Richard tapped the Young Master’s left shoulder with his Magic Wand.

“Quan Zicheng, in the name of the Sage, I enthrone you as the White Wolf God, seated second in rank.”

Saying this, the divine statue in the Gods’ Dimension suddenly moved. Behind him, a shadow of a kneeling werewolf divine statue was erected.

According to the ceremony, the Young Master should make a vow now, responding to Richard’s enthronement.

But an unexpected energy interrupted it.

Not knowing whether it was a problem with the ceremony or a fallback of the White Wolf King, at the moment the enthronement completed, a vast Power of World Origin descended from the sky, pouring into the Young Master like a river. Under the influence of this power, the Young Master’s soul began to transform. The step Richard painstakingly took through the god-ascending ceremony, the Young Master achieved effortlessly.

Moreover, under the world’s protection, the Young Master didn’t even undergo a Soul Mysterious Realm, directly completing the soul’s transformation.

In just a moment, a Forth Level creature was born before Richard. Although this Forth Level creature’s spiritual power was less than a hundred points and physique barely reached Third Level creature standards.

It only took a bit of time for the Young Master’s power to instantly reach the range of a Forth Level creature.

Having the World Origin as backing is indeed so overbearing.

“This…” Richard stood dumbfounded at the scene, “This is too unreasonable.”

Although he knew World Guardians were generally quite abnormal, he didn’t expect that World Guardians could directly escort a Forth Level creature!

The gap between people is really greater than that between people and dogs… can’t say that, since the Young Master is a werewolf.

Richard looked at the somewhat bewildered Young Master, calmly said, “No matter, continue the ceremony.”

The Young Master was stunned for a moment, then proceeded according to the script given by the priest:

“I vow to follow my lord, the Sage, for all eternity. Even if the world collapses and the stars fall silent, I will not break this oath.”
