Chapter 705 - 352: Dangdang’s Promotion_1
No one would turn down the chance to have a Divine Artifact, and Long Dangdang was no exception. However, possessing a Divine Artifact wasn’t as simple as it seemed!
Receiving an Artifact from the Magic Temple would surely be subject to many restrictions. He had been tempted when Wu Di had made the offer, because if he could carry a Divine Artifact, it would undoubtedly increase his chances of successfully rescuing his parents in Calamity City. However, once calm, he realized that it was impossible. Putting aside the fact that the Magic Temple would not let him take an Artifact so far away, he himself couldn’t do that either.
Going to Calamity City to rescue his parents was a dangerous and difficult task, with a high probability of failure. If he brought a Divine Artifact there, it might fall into the enemy’s hands. Such a loss would be a major blow to the Federation. He could not act selfishly!
So, once he regained his composure, he shook his head and declined.
"I’m sorry, Teacher, but I can’t give up my identity as a knight. I am now an Adamantine Cathedra Knight, and the Knights Temple has always treated me well. Even if I may not become a God’s Seal Knight in the future, I am more accustomed to being a knight right now."
Wu Di didn’t show any dissatisfaction with his refusal. He nodded with a smile and said, "Indeed, for you, perhaps choosing both the path of the knight and the mage is a viable option. Your mount also has similar characteristics. Follow your heart. However, the Hall Master asked me to tell you not to forsake magic. After all, you are representing the Magic Temple in the Great Impartation Contest. If you promise and win the contest, we will offer you the opportunity to control a Divine Artifact."
Long Dangdang stared at Wu Di in surprise and blurted out, "Really?"
Wu Di replied with a smile, "This is something you’ve earned with your own talent. Nothing is impossible. My expectations for you were already high, but to my surprise, your growth rate is faster than I imagined. Keep striving, and in the future Federation, there will be a core position for you."
"Yes, thank you, Teacher." The Magic Temple’s generosity encouraged Long Dangdang. Even though wielding such a Divine Artifact seemed surreal to him, at least now he had a chance, right? As Wu Di said, the God’s Seal Cathedra Rex of the Knights Temple couldn’t be given away and had to be queued for. The assistance a Divine Artifact could provide to a professionist was self-evident.
Upon saying goodbye to Wu Di, Long Dangdang learned on his way back home that his teammates’ matches had ended.
Tao Linlin won again today, securing a spot in the top three of the Soul Temple, which was an unexpected pleasure. However, due to the exhaustion from fighting for two consecutive days, he was somewhat drained.
There was nothing to say about Ling Menglu; the cousin was invincible!
