Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead Chapter 150
The scholars of the Mikel Kingdom have an almost pathological curiosity about miracles. Through their spontaneous research, they quickly discovered the clues to the appearance of miracles.
To some extent, the types and effects of miracles can be manipulated artificially.
If the wish of the believers is pure enough, vast enough, and lasts long enough, it can trigger a miracle.
However, successfully invoking a miracle is not that easy.
Where you pray is crucial in invoking miracles.
As a land granted by the gods, praying within the Mikel Kingdom is the only way to possibly receive a response from the gods. Outside of the Mikel Kingdom, even the most devout followers of the Spirit Medicine Sect cannot sense the presence of the gods.
Within the Mikel Kingdom, it is the Holy City Sirena that is most effective, and within Sirena, it is the Royal Tomb that is the most effective.
In simple terms, the Royal Tomb is the place closest to the gods.
Apart from location, the timing of the prayer is also particularly important.
The small miracles accompanying resurrection rituals don’t count; all great miracles happen at night. According to the records of the first miracle of the kingdom, the way the Great Sage showcased the miracle was by merging into the moon.
The scholars speculate that the gods reside on the moon, or rather, the moon is a portal to the Divine Realm.
Having mastered how to guide miracles and amplify prayers, under the leadership of Mikhail I, the scholars and nobles joined forces to set up the second great miracle, the Blood Moon Eternal Life.
All the nobles involved created their own Eternal Life Tomb Chambers according to the blueprints drawn by the scholars.
Creating an Eternal Life Tomb Chamber is a massive expense. For example, for an ordinary Count like the old Schneider, it required selling everything he owned and even signing a contract with a sponsoring church. The family members have to guard a section of the tomb for generations to complete their own Eternal Life Tomb Chamber.
The ordinary people who rushed into the Great Tomb impulsively were also part of the plan.
They were responsible for providing the purest Wish Power and acting as sacrifices for the entire ritual.
The Gravekeepers forbidding ordinary people from entering the Great Tomb was a tactic of bait and switch from the very beginning. The more they prohibited ordinary people from entering, the more rebellious people became, and the more they wanted to come in.
In the tug of war, the sacrifices willingly took the bait without any suspicion.
The Blood Moon Plan was very successful but also very unsuccessful.
The successful part is that the Blood Moon Eternal Life really appeared under human guidance and indeed brought eternal life.
The unsuccessful part is that Mikhail I had a trick up his sleeve. Of all the nobles who created an Eternal Life Tomb Chamber, only he obtained true eternal life.
However, the eternal life that Mikhail I obtained was not perfect. He couldn’t remain conscious for long, nor could he leave the Royal Tomb.
Because the true Blood Moon Eternal Life occurs twice, only by being bathed under the Blood Moon twice can one achieve true eternal life in its essence.
After saying all this, Han’er sighed, "Because of old Schneider, our family must always send someone to guard Tomb No. 44. After the family declined, it was only us on our own.
"The intelligence collected by the Gravekeepers, combined with the intelligence secretly left by old Schneider, led me to deduce the method of participating in Blood Moon Eternal Life. I am preparing to enter an Eternal Life Chamber when the next Blood Moon comes and obtain the power of Blood Moon Eternal Life."
Han’er didn’t keep the secret of Blood Moon Eternal Life to himself. At least what he said was similar to the conclusions Wu Chang deduced based on the existing intelligence.
Patos said that he and old Schneider were people who passed through trials, but did they really achieve eternal life?
Wu Chang thinks not. If they had obtained eternal life, they wouldn’t be struggling to open the Eternal Life Tomb Chambers one by one.
Mikhail I, who is rumored to have achieved eternal life but has never appeared before people, also didn’t obtain eternal life.
Based on what Han’er said, only by going through the Blood Moon Eternal Life twice can the ritual be completed. These doubts then align.
However, there’s one thing Wu Chang especially noted after hearing it, which is the scholars of the Mikel Kingdom speculating that the gods live on the moon.
The gods being extraterrestrial, capable of unleashing miracles through Wish Power—this setup inevitably reminds him of the Great Miracle.
In the Heart’s Desire Dungeon, the appearance of the Great Miracle is attached to a meteorite.
He wished upon the Stone of Miracles. The Stone of Miracles, under the pressure of the game administrator, squeezed him into the Midnight Graveyard Dungeon. Was this all just a coincidence?
Could the moon in the sky be a fully realized Great Miracle?
Impossible. Wu Chang quickly dismissed this hypothesis.
Even controlling only Yifu City, a Great Miracle growing gradually from a minuscule presence could produce a B-Level uncontrolled dungeon. If there really existed a Great Miracle as large as the moon, capable of harvesting the entire nation’s Wish Power, let alone an S-Level dungeon, even the Desolate Realm might not be able to accommodate such a divine presence.
He turned his attention back to Han’er and asked, "Brother Han’er, is there something you’re not telling me?"
Han’er firmly said, "Regarding everything about the Blood Moon Eternal Life, I’ve told you all I know."
"I mean something about you. Your desire to obtain the power of the Blood Moon is related to the Soul Light Sect, right?"
In selective truth-telling and playing word games, Wu Chang is a master. Han’er’s act is not convincing enough in front of him.
Han’er showed a bitter expression, "Did you figure that out too?"
Wu Chang shook his head, saying, "Regarding matters related to the Soul Light Sect, you were too deliberate in your behavior."
Starting from the visit to the Soul Light Cathedral, Han’er consciously or unconsciously badmouthed the Soul Light Sect, steering Wu Chang and Erin to suspicion towards the Soul Light Sect.
