Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Chapter 579 Looming Danger



The question brought some memories to Vivian as she gravely nodded her head.

"Yes… After we interrogated Phoebe and Paige, we learned about their plans to create the Sentient Artifacts. It was a cruel method and I want to stop it as quickly as possible." Vivian answered.

She then looked at Vincent before continuing…

"Do you have something in mind?"

"Ah… I was just curious whether you've seen a Sentient Artifact before. To be honest, I also have a Sentient Artifact or Magic Tool with me. However, I can assure you that it's not created by getting the brains of Mind Cultivators." Vincent explained.

"Yes… I've heard about your Sentient Magic Tools. I'm actually interested in it. I've read ancient texts about it but based on it, they should no longer exist… May I ask where did you find it?"

"I can't reveal it…"

Vivian smiled in understanding after hearing his reply. She wasn't disappointed.

"I understand… To be honest, you may be asked the same question once you displayed your Sentient item. Since we've learned that the Creed of Eiqehin can create such abomination through the sacrifice of many Manipulators, others might think that you've got it from the Creed so it's better if you don't show it most of the time."

"Yes… I'm planning to make them silent most of the time. In any case, no one would suspect my Sentient Magic Tool as long as they don't speak."

"That's good…"

Vivian nodded as she looked at Millie who was following them.

They were walking back to their residence and there were several people showing respect to Vivian as they passed on various people. There were also many eyes looking at the silent Millie so Vivian couldn't help but look at her.

She was a very beautiful Grand Knight and her temperament was impeccable as well.

"You're Millie, right?" Vivian said as she started a conversation with Millie while walking.

Vincent heard this and just remained silent.

Millie, on the other hand, was jolted awake as she didn't expect Vivian to talk to her.

"That's indeed my name, Sage Vivian."

"Hmm… I haven't rewarded you yet… However, I'm not really sure what to give to a Grand Knight like you… Do you like to learn our Mind Cultivation Technique?" Vivian asked.

Millie's eyes lit up after hearing this. She hesitated for a moment before looking at Vincent. Seeing that Vincent was smiling, she nodded her head.

"Yes, Sage Vivian. I've long heard about this cultivation technique. It would be my honor to learn this cultivation technique."

"That's good to hear…" Vivian replied as she handed over the crystal similar to what she had given to Vincent.

This Diamond Tier cultivation technique is certainly more expensive than the Diamond Tier Automatons. Once Millie mastered the technique, she would be able to control any level of Automaton she could get in the future.

"Thank you, Sage Vivian…"

"It's nothing… I was thinking of giving you a sword a while ago but after seeing your sword now, I don't think I can give you something better than that." Vivian replied followed by a dry laugh.

Millie smiled at this since she knows how good her sword was. This is a weapon that has been upgraded by Vincent's special talent after all.

Meanwhile, about 4 thousand miles away from Star Garden Peak, the Kayser Tower within Vera City received a piece of alarming news.

Ever since they have been besieged by various groups of enemies, they have set up some rally points in many hidden areas surrounding their city.

These hidden areas were guarded by groups of 5 to 10 people who would constantly relay information back to the Kayser Tower from hundreds of miles away.

This time, one of the rally points near the border of the Black Tower Organization and Martial Arts Association discovered the movement of hundreds of Martial Artists…

Furthermore, if these people weren't accustomed to seeing Celestial Beings, they would certainly miss 10 Celestial Beings that were together with the Martial Artists…

In addition to that, they could easily guess that the two people leading this battalion were actually Paragons… They were exuding intense pressure even from afar so there was no way they would miss that.

"This isn't good…"

Calidia muttered as she felt troubled in their current predicament. She wasn't scared facing them but without Vincent, she doesn't feel confident.

"Well, we at least know that the Cloaks from Beacon Magic Shop are effective… Not even the Paragons and Celestials can sense the presence of our scouts." Vel said with a smile.

"Right… In any case, we have plenty of Celestial Beings on our side… I don't think that we should be worrying about them, right?" Caesus added.

The three of them were the original members of the Qheglena's Followers and were now top officials within Vera City.

Calidia called for the two since they have been working with the Celestial Beings for several days now… They should have a better understanding of their current strength.

"Are you guys confident that we can stop them if they attacked us?" Calidia asked the two…

Vel and Caesus thought for a moment since they can't absolutely tell what would happen once they arrived.

"I think that they don't know that we have plenty of Celestial Beings here. They wouldn't expect that so if we do this right, we can even eliminate all of them and capture their Celestials so we can surprise Vincent once he's back." Vel replied as he hoped for the best.

"That's true… Furthermore, we have Ariana with us. We might be able to use her as our hostage if we're really in a tough situation." Caesus weakly said since he didn't really want to suggest this idea.

He carefully looked at the two and luckily, they didn't show contempt or dislike for his idea…

"It's not a bad idea. However, we can only do that as a last resort since it may backfire on us. If she suddenly had a strong emotion, it might break the hypnosis." Calidia explained.

The Subordination Impulse Potion that Vincent gave to them will last for three months. It was meant to train the Magic Knights and Aura Knights in the city. Since training people isn't new to Ariana, she was completely immersed in her hypnosis and there were no signs of resistance…

However, if she was used as a hostage and met other Paragons, it might be difficult to say.

In the end, the three of them mobilized a force that can fight to fortify the city and even requested Krusk's assistance in case necessary…
