Walking through the interior of the temple, Lorne thought of the strange things he had encountered in the dungeon.

It was only a small dungeon, but it had attracted the Dragon of Darkness and even the Dragon of Light.

This did not look normal at all.

"I wonder if I can get some information from Leisha…"

With that in mind, he walked into the inner hall.

Here, he saw the Light Priestess Leisha in her holy robes again.

Unlike the last time, Leisha had been waiting for this moment.

Noticing his arrival, Leisha's golden eyes snapped open, and she hurried down the platform to stand beside him.

"I didn't expect you to sweep through the Valley of the Dead so quickly. I can clearly sense that the dark aura in that area has weakened. They no longer pose a threat to the village."

Leisha looked at him, a holy smile on her face, "By the way, did you see anything special in the deepest part of the valley? Or was it something peculiar?"

Something peculiar?

Without much thought, he told Leisha about the coffin he had seen in the dungeon hall and the information about the 'spatial node'.

Soon, Leisha gritted her teeth and said, "Those fellows from the Dark Abyss have indeed obtained information regarding the sealed node."

Sealed node?

Lorne heard another strange phrase.

"What's a sealed node?" Lorne looked at her curiously.

Hearing this, Leisha could not help but look deeply at Lorne, as if wondering if she should tell this news to the adventurer.

After some thought, Leisha explained, "This matter needs to be explained from a long, long time ago."

"About a thousand years ago, in the abyss of this continent, there were a total of 27 incomparably powerful Abyss Kings. They fought with the gods of the Order faction for the right to rule the continent, starting the final battle."

"In the unprecedented war, 20 of the 27 Abyss Kings died, and the other seven were also severely injured by a god of the Dragon Race, but at this moment, all the other gods of the Order faction had died, and the god of the Dragon Race was at its limit. It could not wipe out the abyss completely."

"Helpless, that god could only use the last of its magic power to permanently exile these severely injured Abyss Kings in the spatial turbulence, and leave behind the rough coordinates of the spatial node. It hoped that the gods of the Order faction that appeared in the future could kill them as soon as possible to prevent future troubles."

"However, a hundred years ago, a traitor appeared in the Human Empire. He stole the scroll that recorded the coordinates of the seal and attempted to open these sealed nodes to release the terrifying Abyss Kings!"

Leisha slowly walked towards the platform and continued, "The mission of the Light Priests and Priestesses is to find the whereabouts of the scroll and snatch it back before the sealed node is broken."

"A thousand years?"

Lorne was curious as he asked, "Hasn't a god appeared in the Order faction after so long?"

The sealed node that the god of a thousand years ago had specially left behind was to let the future gods enter the spatial turbulence and kill the Abyss Kings.

But strangely, after so long, this matter did not happen.

Had no god been born in the Order faction for a thousand years?

That was not right.

If that was the case, then what was the Dragon of Light?

It was the Dragon God!

"Of course there were. But that was another matter 300 years ago."

Leisha sighed helplessly, "After seven hundred years of recuperation, those Abyss Kings have probably already recovered from their injuries. If we enter the spatial node now, they will only be given a chance to escape."

"For the safety of the continent, the plan to suppress them was repeatedly postponed until that heinous betrayal occurred."

Lorne nodded after he heard the explanation.

However, he quickly asked, "But why hasn't the sealed node been completely opened after a hundred years?"

"It's not that simple."

Leisha said, "There are more than ten thousand spots recorded on that scroll, and the spatial node keeps jumping, so every once in a while, the true sealed node will be rearranged. Coupled with the fact that most of the spots are within the range of the Empire Alliance, if the Dark Abyss wants to open the seal, they can only keep trying. It's normal for them to not succeed for a hundred years."

Wow…

After hearing all of this, Lorne was shocked.

In the "Divine Realm", the Abyss Kings were one of the most powerful beings. For example, the Dragon of Darkness that he had seen in the dungeon was one of the current Abyss Kings.

The Dragon of Light and the King of the Abyss were on the same level.

Lorne did not expect to see two existences at the top of the pyramid and obtain such important news not long after the server opened.

If nothing unexpected happened, this information would probably cover the entire game's storyline.

After all, the greatest enemy of the Order faction was the Dark faction, and the greatest threat in the Dark faction were the incomparably powerful Abyss Kings.

"Young adventurer, I'm telling you this information to motivate you. This continent is not as peaceful as you think."

"Behind this incomparably harmonious background is constant war. The demons of the Dark Abyss have never given up on invading this peaceful land."

"Therefore, as the best of the new generation of adventurers, I hope that you can increase your strength as soon as possible. The Human Empire needs new strength."

With that, Leisha waved her arm.

The next second, a gorgeous light poured over Lorne.

Ding!

"Congratulations on completing the mission of Light Priestess Leisha: [Explore the Valley of the Dead]!"

"Reward: Gold coins+5, EXP+5,000, Reputation+500, [Stone of Wisdom of the Ancient Gods] (Mythical)."

The mission reward was finally given.

The previous rewards were not worth mentioning. It was just that the rewards for clearing the dungeon were too many.

But of the many rewards, Lorne heard a strange phrase.

He quickly looked at the final reward.

When he opened the attributes of the tool, he was dumbfounded.

————

[Stone of Wisdom of the Ancient Gods]

Grade: Mythical

Effect: A special gem that the ancient gods used their divine power to gather. It has unimaginable power. After using it, one can temporarily obtain extraordinary wisdom. You can ignore the level requirement up to 50 and learn any skill.

————

"Is this real?!"

Lorne could not believe his eyes.

This reward could actually allow players to ignore level requirements to learn skills!

Didn't that mean that he could use this tool to learn the skill [Hellhound Summoning]?!

However, before Lorne could think further, Leisha continued, "Last time, you wanted other rewards, but instead obtained some monster parts that were useless. I believe you are like the smiths of the Blacksmith Guild who are studying their uses. In that case, I'll give you some more materials."
