Five Frozen Centuries

Chapter 80: Decision Quest

Ye Yunxiao was very tactful. He retreated to one side, indicating that he did not want to compete with the three Gods for the Epic-ranked creature. However, he had to clarify the misunderstanding about Wei Huo.

“This is a child of the Gods who was lost in this world. I plan to bring him back to the Divine Realm after the coming-of-age ceremony.”

The only female God among the three Gods approached Wei Huo and patted his head. “He’s too young. He’s only 300 years old. I don’t know how many hardships he went through in this world. No, I have to contact the person in charge immediately and get him to bring him back to the Divine Realm. Look at his malnourished appearance.”

Wei Huo was confused. How do you guys know I am malnourished?

And how do these divine beings know my age?

A male God exclaimed, “Am I seeing things? This 300-year-old kid is actually Rare-ranked? If I’m not mistaken, this 18-year-old piece of trash is also Rare-ranked, right?”

Ye Yunxiao frowned and clenched his fists tightly. Wei Huo almost lost control of himself.

However, Ye Yunxiao held back. He could endure what normal people could not!

The only female God took a badge out of somewhere. There were complicated words written on it.

Wei Huo took a closer look and realized that the words on the badge were similar to codes that were unlocked after being encrypted. The words were ferocious and written with many strokes. Although they were simple words, he could not recognize what they meant.

The female God took out her token and started chanting a spell. In a moment, a ray of divine light broke through the air and headed straight for the colorful gate in the sky. It entered the gate instantly.

A man asked in shock, “Han Yun, did you just use the emergency voice transmission?”

Han Yun said, “The coming-of-age ceremony is about to end. Plus, given my strength, how could I encounter any danger? If I can use it, I’ll use it. On the contrary, this is akin to saving a compatriot of the Gods. Am I still not clear about this?”

The two male Gods immediately answered, “You’re right, you’re right. That makes sense.”

At that moment, Ye Yunxiao suddenly said, “I was the one who discovered this baby of the Gosa. The credit should be mine!”

The two male Gods immediately retorted, “Han Yun sent an important voice transmission. What did you do? How dare you want the credit?”

Han Yun suddenly lifted her hand. “Stop arguing. Let me ask this baby of the Gods who he wants to follow back to the Divine Realm.”

“Decision Quest triggered!”

A notification popped up on Wei Huo’s quest system. He saw Ye Yunxiao and Han Yun look over at the same time.

“If you choose to follow Han Yun back to the Divine Realm, Han Yun’s favorability will increase by 10 and Ye Yunxiao’s favorability will decrease by 10. At the same time, you will be rewarded with a Divine Pet Space.”

“If you choose to return to the Divine Realm with Ye Yunxiao, your favorability will increase by 10 and the favorability of Han Yun will decrease by 10. At the same time, you will be rewarded with a Divine Wood Missile Slingshot.”

“Note: Different choices will have different effects on the trip to the Divine Realm.”

Wei Huo frowned. Another multiple-choice question?

Wei Huo knew very well that he must have triggered the quest to enter the Divine Realm. It was similar to many quests in game-playing plotlines. As long as one met a condition, such as the necessary level, combat power, and so on, the next quest would be triggered.

The Divine Realm’s plotline should have been prepared for players who were about to reach the Epic stage. Moreover, they should not be younger than 300 years old or very old. Otherwise, this quest would not have been triggered.

Wei Huo did not make a choice. Han Yun, the other two Gods, and Ye Yunxiao stopped moving. When Wei Huo took a step to the left, they turned to the left as well. Wei Huo walked in a big circle to the right, and they did the same.

No matter how Wei Huo moved, they would all look at him. If Wei Huo retreated, they would look at him from afar. When Wei Huo was 30 meters away from the magical beast, the system suddenly said, “If you get 35 meters away from the quest, you will fail the quest and lose the right to enter the Divine Realm.”

Wei Huo was speechless.

There was a limit. I thought they would follow me. If they did, I would have brought them to kill monsters.

The difference between players and NPCs was obvious. After triggering the quest, the Gods stood still. They would not react as long as Wei Huo did not make a choice.

However, as Wei Huo approached Han Yun, she suddenly said, “Child, please make your choice.”

Han Yun then made a defensive move. It seemed like if Wei Huo approached her again, she would attack him.

There were no flaws indeed…

Wei Huo was confused. Are these so-called Gods really sentient beings or NPCs created by God?

Wei Huo looked at Ye Yunxiao and Han Yun and made a reasonable choice.

“I choose Han Yun.”

There was no reason to choose to increase the favorability of a male God. He should choose to increase the favorability of a female God instead.

Most importantly, Wei Huo had guessed that the female God’s status in the Divine Realm was not low. The higher one’s favorability was, the greater the benefits would be.

After Wei Huo made his choice, Han Yun smiled and patted his head. “Good child, I knew you would make this choice. Your choice was wise. I will immediately send my Heavenly Horse to bring you back to the Divine Realm.”

Wei Huo was confused. Where is the Divine Pet Space? Are you not giving it to me?

Ye Yunxiao raised his brows as if he was unhappy that Wei Huo had chosen Han Yuan. He said coldly, “To my knowledge, this baby has two pets. What are your plans?”

The female God smiled when she heard that. “Aren’t they just a child’s pets? I have two Divine Pet Spaces. I’ll give them to him as toys.”

As soon as she finished her sentence, Han Yun handed Wei Huo a golden bracelet. Wei Huo took it and read the information on the bracelet.

The Divine Pet Space Bracelet could be used to keep pets. There were three slots in total.

Wei Huo took the bracelet and glanced at Ye Yunxiao. Over the past seven days, they had subdued 12 Epic-ranked creatures. Every time they subdued an Epic-ranked creature, Wei Huo would ask Ye Yunxiao a question.

Over the past seven days, Wei Huo had figured out how to strengthen his weapon’s Divine Power and some of the Divine Realm’s laws and regulations. He’d asked about the ways to obtain rare materials and how to cultivate pets in the Divine Pet Space. Most importantly, Wei Huo had figured out how to obtain the God-Refining Skill and how to enter the Epic stage.

Every time, Ye Yunxiao would put the subjugated Epic-ranked creatures into the Divine Pet Space. It seemed like there were quite a few Divine Pet Spaces in Ye Yunxiao’s hands!

Han Yun whistled and her white pegasus approached her. The pegasus was snow-white in color and extremely beautiful. Han Yun patted the pegasus’s back and told it, “Take my child back to the Divine Realm and come back in an hour.”

As soon as Han Yun finished her sentence, Wei Huo received a system notification.

“The mission will fail if you don’t reach the rainbow gate within an hour after gaining control of the pegasus.”
