“In my mind, how can there be such a strange divine tree?”

He tried to walk toward that divine tree. With a single thought, he arrived before it. The enormous divine tree should have been unreachable, but when Summer Clark raised his hand, he touched the black giant egg.

In an instant, a strange consciousness was transmitted from the giant egg into Summer Clark’s mind.

【Divine Item Origin: Underworld

Divine Item Name: Yin Soldier Nest

Info One, Yin Soldier Nest: The most common barracks for Yin soldiers in the underworld. Each Yin Soldier Nest houses one thousand Yin soldiers and three Yin generals.

Info Two, Yin Soldiers: The weakest Yin soldiers in the underworld, responsible for escorting unconscious souls of the dead.

Info Three, Yin Generals: Commanders of the Yin soldiers.】

The moment this consciousness entered Summer Clark’s mind, it was as if he had been enlightened, instantly understanding the purpose of the divine tree.

“This divine tree can actually produce mythic items like the Yin Soldier Nest?”

He removed his hand from the Yin Soldier Nest and placed it on a nearby silver fruit.

【Divine Item Fruit: Pluck the fruit to obtain a divine item.】

Summer Clark swallowed nervously, gripped the fruit tightly, and pulled it down with force.

The fruit separated from the trunk and fell into Summer Clark’s hand. Just as Summer Clark was about to examine this divine item fruit closely, it suddenly transformed into something like mercury, lengthened in an instant, and gradually became a longsword.

The hilt of this longsword was interlaced with silver and blue, the blade was entirely silver-white, engraved with mysterious patterns, double-edged, and gleamed with a cold light.

【Divine Item Origin: Danus Deity Clan

Divine Item Name: Sword of Vengeance, Sword of Response, Soul-Stealing Sword—Fragarach

Fragarach: The sword of the god of light and sun in Celtic mythology; if this sword is pointed at your throat, within the rules of power, you must answer and cannot lie; the sword can fly automatically toward the enemy, return to its master after killing.】

Summer Clark sensed the properties of this longsword and was slightly stunned—there were even divine items from Western mythology?

“But thinking about it, the divine items in Eastern mythology are described as overwhelmingly powerful.”

“To put it simply, this fruit is basically a newbie gift pack. There’s no way it would give me the Pangu Axe, right?”

“Maybe, this tree really does have the Pangu Axe?”

He took a deep breath, his mind suddenly much clearer, though he still didn’t know why this divine tree had appeared in his mind.

But when he touched the Yin Soldier Nest and the divine item fruit, he understood clearly that as long as he wished, he could bring these two mythic items into reality at any time!

He had just thought about returning to reality in his mind when suddenly, the scenes in his mind began to shatter like glass struck hard, breaking into pieces.

Summer Clark’s consciousness returned to his body. The man in black was still gazing at him deeply, and all the ministers were also watching him, as if waiting for him to be completely controlled by the bewitchment spell!

“Your Highness, where is the decree of Taicang?” The man in black’s hoarse voice sounded again. He hadn’t expected his bewitchment spell to have already failed.

Summer Clark was about to speak when a scout rushed in at the door in a panic, not bothering to announce himself, knelt down, and shouted loudly, “A thousand Evil Hound Troops and five thousand Hunting Troops from the Jiuhound Nation have already set out from the border. In at most three hours, they will be at the gates of Taicheng!”

The crown prince’s bedchamber fell silent!

Grace Harper frowned, looked around, and examined every minister: “The Jiuhound Nation already knows the news?”

The vigorous old man snorted coldly: “General Harper, the fall of Taicheng is inevitable. In a moment, you and the other generals must ensure your own safety, and be sure to wait until the traitor who leaked the news reveals themselves. At that time…”

After saying this, he turned to look at the ministers: “Our Taicang Nation has struggled arduously between the Jiuhound and Zhouqing nations for over two hundred years, and in the end, we still cannot escape the fate of destruction.”

Summer Clark’s eyes suddenly flashed as he said, “Everyone, I have another way. Why not give it a try?”

None of the ministers paid any attention to Summer Clark; they all knelt, tears glistening in their eyes. Someone cried out, “We have toiled for two hundred years, endured hardship for two hundred years, and in the end, we are destroyed by a meteor disaster. We cannot accept this…”

Summer Clark coughed lightly, raised his voice, and said again, “Don’t be so pessimistic. I have a way. Please hear me out.”

The vigorous old man straightened up, drew a dagger from his belt.

He looked at it carefully and shouted, “Pass down the order: once the gates of Taicheng fall, the entire nation must perish together. Not a single person is to fall into the hands of the Jiuhound tribe. Compared to death, these cruel foreigners are nothing!”

Summer Clark flew into a rage!

He grabbed the stone pillow from the bed and threw it at the iron candlestick beside him. The candlestick toppled with a crash, immediately drawing everyone’s attention.

“You’re all wailing and can’t understand human speech? I said, I still have a sol—”

“Bang, bang…”

A dull knocking sound came from within the wall. Grace Harper frowned, walked to the wall beside the bed, and with a flash of her sword, sliced the wall open.

A beautiful young girl, hands and feet bound, a rag stuffed in her mouth, her eyes full of hopeless tears—when she saw Summer Clark, her despair turned into a hatred etched into her very bones…

Grace Harper and the ministers all looked at the just-now imposing Summer Clark.
