Chapter 257: Chapter257:Decision And Departure
The knowledge about the Elemental Tides was something Enzo had learned from the Protoss girl, Carol. Unfortunately, there was no method to deal with the Elemental Tides mentioned in the Protoss inheritance she received.
The Elemental Tides could only be faced head-on.
Alternatively, extremely powerful beings could help resolve the situation.
As the nascent consciousness of a planet, Artemis naturally did not know of any strong individuals.
Wait, there was one!
The immortal deity Boyega who had come to the Disaster World!
At that moment, all the clues in Enzo's mind connected, forming the truth of the past.
At that time, Boyega had fallen into the Disaster World.
He discovered the secret of the Elemental Tides and sensed Artemis's existence. There must have been some kind of agreement between them...
Enzo could only roughly deduce this.
However, this was no longer important.
He looked at Artemis, who was floating in front of him, and asked, "My Lady Artemis, what should I do next?"
"Go to the Starry Sky."
Artemis's response was very brief but left Enzo puzzled.
The Starry Sky was the domain of the powerful.
Given his current strength, if he ventured into the Starry Sky, even encountering some not-so-powerful deities could put him in a very dangerous situation.
Artemis noticed Enzo's concerns.
She explained, "Although there are many deities in the Starry Sky, the probability of encountering one is still low. The Starry Sky is immensely vast, and even an immortal deity cannot step into every region of the Starry Sky."
"Moreover, in this world, it is impossible to become a deity."
"When one becomes a deity, an immense amount of elemental energy will accumulate. This energy will trigger the Elemental Tides, causing them to erupt prematurely."
"Therefore, if you want to become a deity, you must go to the Starry Sky."
After hearing this, Enzo nodded.
He trusted that Artemis had no reason to deceive him on this matter, especially since, as she said, he was the only one who could help her at this moment.
However, Enzo felt something strange: Artemis didn't seem overly anxious.
The girl's expression remained calm, and there was no fluctuation in her deep eyes, as if she still had some hidden card to play against the Elemental Tides. But Enzo couldn't take that risk. Once the Elemental Tides erupted, the people of the Crimson Star Tribe would certainly not survive.
Thus, there was only one path forward: to become an immortal deity!
Enzo quickly made his decision.
He spoke earnestly, "I will go to the Starry Sky as soon as possible to find a solution to the Elemental Tides. However, before I leave, I hope you can promise me one thing."
"What is it?" Artemis asked curiously.
"I hope you can keep an eye on the Crimson Star Tribe and ensure that no harm comes to its people." Enzo stated his request.
Artemis nodded and replied, "I will keep watch."
Then, she shifted her tone and said, "However, I am not a babysitter. Unless they encounter a disaster inherent to the world itself, I will not intervene in other conflicts. Conflict is one of the rules by which the world operates, and I cannot disrupt it."
Enzo nodded again, understanding this point.
At that moment, Artemis waved her hand, and Enzo felt his consciousness detach from somewhere.
When his awareness returned to his body, he found himself still in the deity hall of the Holy City, where the administrators were kneeling on the ground, their eyes filled with fervor as they repeatedly called out Artemis's name.
Disregarding them, Enzo opened a space portal to leave.
Before long, he returned to the Crimson Star Tribe.
However, shortly after Enzo departed, new faces appeared in the Holy City.
It was an elf woman radiating an aura of nobility, with a slightly rounded belly, seemingly pregnant.
By her side was an orc.
The newcomers were none other than the elf queen, Daphne, and Profaner Melokuhle.
They strode confidently into the Holy City, but thanks to Melokuhle's invisibility spell, no one noticed them.
Then, under Melokuhle's guidance, Daphne also entered the deity hall.
"Go ahead."
Melokuhle said that to Daphne.
Daphne nodded, her gaze resolute. She then closed her eyes and silently recited, "Great Lady Artemis, I have come to the Holy City seeking your presence. Please bestow your blessing upon the child in my womb!"
After silently reciting her thoughts, Daphne's consciousness appeared in the same Starry Sky where Enzo had been before.
Artemis still maintained her youthful form.
She looked at Daphne, or more specifically, at Daphne's rounded belly.
Then, she gently placed her palm on it, sensing for a moment, and softly said, "Daphne, I understand your intentions. However, this child's potential is already strong enough and does not require my blessing. Rather, it is you whose strength is too weak to support the child's birth. For now, you should remain in the Holy City."
Daphne did not dare to refuse and responded, "Yes, Lady Artemis."
On her way to the Holy City, Melokuhle had already informed her of Artemis's identity.
She was a true deity!
An immortal deity who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Boyega.
In fact, she might even be stronger!
But that was on the condition that the issue of the Elemental Tides was resolved.
Melokuhle had brought Daphne to seek Artemis not only for the so-called blessing but also to have Artemis guide the child in her womb.
Because he, along with Dorek and the others, were completely incapable of teaching her.
Although the child in Daphne's womb was still in the early stages of development and had yet to gain consciousness, the talent it displayed was already astonishing and shocking.
Just a few days ago, Melokuhle had taken Daphne into the Steles Amusement Park.
Originally, he intended for Daphne to acquire a few inheritances to enhance her own strength, which would also provide some protection for the child. However, upon entering the Steles Amusement Park, the child in Daphne's womb had triggered over a dozen golden inheritances, including a rainbow inheritance.
Such talent was truly astonishing.
Melokuhle was certain that even his master, Boyega, could not possess such an ability.
The talent of the child in Daphne's womb far exceeded that of Enzo.
This filled Melokuhle with immense joy!
It meant that once Daphne's child was born, their strength would rise rapidly, and after receiving Boyega's inheritance, they could even reach the realm of immortal deity in a short period of time.
They would witness a miracle!
Therefore, Daphne's safety had to be absolutely guaranteed.
In this world, only the Holy City was the safest place. After some consideration, Melokuhle decided to bring Daphne to the Holy City and also meet Artemis.
At that moment, in the vast, ethereal Starry Sky,
Artemis withdrew her hand. A slight ripple finally appeared in her calm eyes as she said to Daphne, "Before you, Enzo has already come. His talent is quite impressive, ranking among the top even in the Starry Sky. However, the child in your womb has already surpassed his father, Enzo. Once he reaches adulthood, he is destined to become an immortal deity."
"Daphne, you have done well."
"Carrying such a bloodline is your glory!"
As she spoke, Artemis summoned starlight, which fell upon Daphne.
Daphne instantly felt a warm and comforting sensation as her realm rapidly increased, while the child in her womb began to greedily absorb this power.
It was not until the starlight was exhausted that Daphne gratefully said, "Thank you, Lady Artemis."
Artemis nodded and sent Daphne's consciousness out of the ethereal Starry Sky. Then she murmured to herself, "What a terrifying talent. The fusion of Enzo's bloodline with that of the elven royal family has given birth to such an incredible lineage. Such a bloodline is enough to become one of the finest in the Starry Sky!"
"Perhaps, there will be no need for Enzo. We can simply wait for the child to be born, and the Elemental Tides problem will be resolved…"
Artemis's whispers went unheard.
Daphne followed Artemis's instructions and stayed in the Holy City.
Meanwhile, upon returning to the Crimson Star Tribe, Enzo began to delegate various tasks and answer some of Ward's questions, such as the tribe's future development and collaboration with the Snow Fox Territory.
However, Enzo did not go into too much detail. He only provided a general direction.
At the same time, regarding the Adventurer's Association formed in Crimson Lake, Enzo also made arrangements for its members to integrate into the Crimson Star Tribe. With the inclusion of Erdos and others, the top combat strength of the Crimson Star Tribe significantly increased.
After completing these tasks, several days had passed.
Enzo packed some supplies and used instant teleportation to cross the vast ocean, heading toward the City of the Setting Sun.
He easily located the City of the Setting Sun and also discovered the Starry Sky teleportation array that had been left behind.
Without hesitation, Enzo activated the teleportation array.
The moment the array was activated, Artemis sensed it. Her gaze turned toward him, but she did not disturb Enzo. After a brief glance, she withdrew her gaze.
As for others, they continued their lives as usual.
Some hunted in the jungle, others participated in trials in the supernatural trial space, while some engaged in various reproductive activities... For the Disaster World, the absence of one person was insignificant. No one would take notice.
For Enzo, however, his journey through the Starry Sky had officially begun.
Yet, just after using the Starry Sky teleportation array and seeing the scene before him, Enzo's expression changed dramatically.
