Chapter 59 Deprivation (Bonus chapter for recommended votes)
Once someone takes the lead, others will naturally find the courage to follow. Soon, two more elders came forward to protest.
Fang Senyan, facing these challenges, simply waved his hand and said:
"Very well, then the City of Dawn will not hold you back. Return to Rivendell!"
The three elven elders angrily retorted:
"You have no right to decide our destination!"
Fang Senyan smiled and said:
"If you want Lady Mu Ge to personally drive you away, that's simple—wait until I finish dealing with things here."
One after another, more elven elders stepped forward to complete the magic array on Glorfindel's body. In the end, a total of six elven elders participated in the process. After the array was drawn, Glorfindel was unable to speak, only able to make fierce "ho-ho" sounds in his throat. The dense array inscriptions, like molten gold, coiled around his skin, seemingly seeping into it like tattoos!
Annel. Salorno waved his hand slightly, and Glorfindel floated up from the ground. The bodies of the six elven elders also began to emit a faint golden glow. They surrounded Glorfindel and continued to walk towards the depths of the cave.
The three elven elders who hadn't participated tried to follow, but after taking a few steps, a clear light barrier appeared before them. Although the barrier was weak, it possessed an inviolable majesty, blocking them from proceeding. However, Fang Senyan swaggered forward, completely unaffected by the barrier.
One of the elven elders tried to imitate him, but upon touching the barrier, he cried out in agony. A scorch mark instantly appeared on the skin that had made contact. He hastily used nature magic to heal himself, but the scorch mark remained on his skin like a brand.
"The god only needs the most devout servants," a drawn-out voice floated from afar. "Regrettably, you have disappointed the gods."
The three elven elders exchanged glances, a sense of foreboding rising in their hearts.
The group seemed to walk for a long time in the darkness, or perhaps it was only a moment. Another enormous stone cave appeared ahead. Five holes were in the upper part of this cave. Although it was clearly at the bottom of the mountain, scorching sunlight shone down from each hole.
The five rays of sunlight represented the five glories of the Sun God: Light, Warmth, Splendor, Majesty, and Heat. The sunlight here was created by the Sun God Sindorei displaying his divine power, and would never fade away.
Annel. Salorno began chanting incantations with a profound look in his eyes. The five rays of sunlight slowly moved towards Glorfindel's limbs and head, and the array drawn on his body shone brightly in response!
Glorfindel roared in agony, struggling violently in mid-air to no avail.
Gradually, the surrounding light dimmed. This wasn't to say that the Sun God's divine miracle had disappeared, but that the five rays of sunlight were completely absorbed as soon as they were produced, transforming into the divine power of the transfer array. Naturally, this caused the cave to fall into a state of darkness.
Immediately afterward, a few red lights flickered on the nearby walls, then began to crisscross in the air. Upon closer inspection, they were one after another, the emblem of the Sun God Sindorei! Then various intersecting light trails appeared in the air, combining perfectly to form an image of the Sun God Sindorei. The entire cave now appeared to be a mysterious and enormous magic array!
Soon, Glorfindel's facial expression was completely distorted, yet he couldn't make a sound. An extremely dense green light began to overflow from his body. Then, he slowly floated higher into the air, moving as if being held in the palm of the Sun God. The deep green light emanating from his body became even more intense, finally condensing into six indescribable emerald-colored orbs, floating before the six elven elders present.
"I, Annel. Salorno, swear here that the glory of the Sun God will forever illuminate my soul! I am willing to become the most faithful believer of the Sun God Sindorei!"
Annel. Salorno's devout voice rang out. Compared to the other five elven elders, he understood the meaning of this magic array ritual the most. If this powerful elder still had doubts about Fang Senyan's words before, then after witnessing the performance of the holy beast Paul Goche, who had captured Glorfindel alive, he was completely convinced of everything!
"This, this is a fanatic oath!" The other five elven elders exclaimed in unison!
Along with Annel. Salorno's oath, the surface of the emerald-colored orb floating before him slowly began to turn gold, then began to seep into Annel. Salorno's body. When the orb completely merged into Annel. Salorno's body, his magic power began to increase wildly. The shackles that had plagued him for one hundred and ninety-six years disappeared quietly, allowing Annel. Salorno's strength to reach a new level!
Because, the emerald-colored orb he had absorbed contained ten percent of Glorfindel's power!
The power of all things comes from the sun. Only the power of the Sun God Sindorei can transform all power into the divine power of the Sun God, and then inject it into his devout fanatics! Annel. Salorno was a person who pursued power, so he took this step so decisively!
The other five elven elders were also stunned. They now understood, but while Glorfindel's ten percent power was tempting, becoming a fanatic meant that in the long life ahead, they would likely be controlled by Mu Ge. Sun Chaser. At the same time, they would inevitably become Glorfindel's mortal enemies, something they couldn't help but hesitate over!
But in the moment of their hesitation, Elder Annel. Salorno, whose strength had greatly increased, suddenly knelt down and chanted loudly:
"Great Sun God, your believer is willing to use everything to worship you, please grant me greater power."
Annel. Salorno's even more thorough act of "selling himself" immediately won the greater favor of the Sun God Sindorei. Immediately, the emerald-colored orbs in front of the other hesitant elven elders were once again enveloped in gold, and five golden rays were forcibly drawn away!! They dissolved into Annel. Salorno's body again!
His magic power surged again! It could be said that he was only one step away from reaching the hero level alongside Legolas and Galadriel!
At this time, the elven elder who had participated in drawing the array could no longer restrain himself. He immediately followed suit, taking a fanatic oath and absorbing the power of Glorfindel in front of him. He also unhesitatingly sold himself again, drawing part of the power orbs in front of the other four elders to himself.
Under these circumstances, the remaining elven elders finally awoke from their dream and swore oaths one after another. However, the last elven elder to swear was the most unlucky. After being additionally absorbed by many people, only about 5% of Glorfindel's power remained in front of him, and the benefits he gained were the least.
The biggest winner in this ritual was undoubtedly Elder Annel. Salorno. Previously, among all the elven elders, his power was at most average or slightly below average. But now, he had successfully bet decisively, and his strength had become the strongest under Mu Ge, effectively becoming the first person, and the position of chief elder could be said to belong to him without a doubt.
Fang Senyan, who had witnessed this scene, finally completely relaxed. In this way, the high-level officials of the City of Dawn were established, all composed of fanatics of the Sun God Sindorei. Even if Mu Ge was a bit naturally ditzy and made some silly mistakes, her position would be as stable as Mount Tai.
More importantly, these six elders had completely plundered Glorfindel's power to successfully rise to power, and it was completely impossible for them to compromise with Glorfindel.
At this thought, a cold smile appeared on the corner of Fang Senyan's mouth. The six elven elders still needed to quietly pray and cultivate in the holy land for a while to consolidate their newly acquired power. He directly grabbed Glorfindel's hair and dragged him out like a dead dog.
After reaching the outside, Fang Senyan handed him over to two dwarven elite warriors, then returned to the highest point of the City of Dawn and said to all the elves:
"Although Mr. Glorfindel came with malice and attempted to insult our faith and destroy our happy life, after leading him to witness the majesty of the Sun God Sindorei, the merciful Mu Ge. Sun Chaser decided to forgive his rudeness and let him return to Rivendell to properly repent for his blasphemous sins."
All the elves had not expected such a thing to happen. They originally thought that imprisonment would be the best outcome for Glorfindel. If Mu Ge was more ruthless, then killing him would not be impossible.
However, watching Fang Senyan directly throw Glorfindel onto a dugout canoe and let him leave, many elves had to believe their eyes and cheered for the mercy of Mu Ge. Sun Chaser.
In fact, this was also the result of Fang Senyan's painstaking consideration. The time he spent in this world was limited. Now, the defense of the City of Dawn was very complete. Glorfindel's life or death was not important, let alone one who only had 40% of his power remaining?
Moreover, if he lived, he would be a huge threat to the six elders who had absorbed his power. With external pressure, these six elders would naturally be more well-behaved and would not focus their attention on internal strife. The power plays involved were naturally not for outsiders to understand.
