Chapter 565 This sword… was extraordinary…

Alice couldn’t imagine what had just happened.

Zeus greeted her?

And she was complimenting his aura.

Right, how could the aura of the king of gods be anything but impressive?

This must be considered a high-ranking leader in the divine realm!

“Zeus is your disciple?” Alice swallowed hard, recently pondering just how powerful and esteemed William’s identity could be.

She aimed high in her speculations but never imagined it would be to this extent.

William naturally responded, “Of course, is that strange?”

Uh!

Alice was at a loss for words!

Is that not strange?

That’s Zeus!

The king of gods from the legends!

Seeing Alice silent, William asked, “What are your plans next?”

Alice took a deep breath and said earnestly, “I think I should try to earn more energy crystals and raise my strength level before going to rescue Loki.” Get your 𝒇avorite 𝒏ovels at novelb𝒊n(.)com

The logic was simple, based on what Alice knew about William, there would surely be a more difficult task waiting for her after rescuing Loki.

And it would be the kind of task she couldn’t refuse!

So, she naturally wanted to enhance her strength level first to avoid being overwhelmed by the task later.

“You decide for yourself,” William was curious to see what Alice would do next.

Alice took out an energy crystal and examined it for a long time before asking, “This must have been cut from some kind of ore, right?”

William nodded, asking, “You’re not thinking of finding raw ore stones and gambling on whether they contain energy crystals, are you? You want to gamble on stones?”

Alice blinked, “You guessed right!”

Damn!

She’s treating herself like a transmigrator with a cheat system!

Alchemy and stone gambling, these familiar plots make William feel as if Alice is like the protagonist from a web novel.

There wouldn’t be an auction coming up next, would there?

Given Alice’s current luck, when she goes to gamble on stones, she wouldn’t happen to meet someone who insists on betting with her, leading her to win big, would she?

“You’re not thinking about going to an auction, are you?” William straightforwardly asked.

“Shouldn’t I?” Alice naturally responded.

“Let’s wait and see.” William chuckled.

Do you really think stone gambling is that easy?

It would be funny if you ended up losing everything.

Taking advantage of being familiar with the house, Alice ran to the bedroom and, under the pretext of needing a chest massage treatment due to severe injuries, managed to extract some essence from William.

The next day, Alice was refreshed, with rosy skin, showing none of the dejection from the day before.

William took Alice to the largest Sacred Gem Exchange in the second district.

“Today, the Sacred Gem Exchange has brought in another batch of unusual stones. It’s unknown what treasures will be revealed.”

“Ha! Those stones are also ridiculously priced. It’s better for people like us to just play around at the stalls outside.”

“Ah, stop talking about it. The other day, when I cut open a stone, there was nothing inside, costing me 5000 energy crystals. My wife is now searching for me with a knife. I’ve been hiding in this Sacred Gem Exchange and dare not go out.”

…

Upon entering the Gem Exchange, William and Alice heard the whispers of the gods around them.

Stone gambling here is similar to that on Earth, with energy crystals being cut from various crystal stones.

The crystal stone veins in the Divine Realm are all occupied by powerful beings, and the so-called Sacred Gem Exchange is a trading center for a large crystal stone vein occupied by the gods of the Divine Alliance.

This vein is so vast that even Zeus only occupies a part of it.

The Sacred Gem Exchange has a formidable background, with each location guarded by a Supreme Deity. For thousands of years, almost no one has dared to cause trouble in the Sacred Gem Exchange.

No one in the Sacred Gem Exchange could discern William and Alice’s strength levels. As soon as they entered, they were promptly greeted.

After all, these two looked like the type who were very powerful.

The more powerful the person, the more generous they tend to be.

Here, there are deities specifically assigned to welcome guests, earning commissions through this service.

Encountering generous patrons could result in significant earnings from a single commission.

“First time here for the both of you, esteemed deities?”

The one greeting William and his companion appeared to be a woman in her thirties, exuding charm. Her strength had reached the level of a Nature Deity, yet her demeanor towards them was exceedingly respectful.

To work as a greeter here, one must be at least of Nature Deity level, firstly to ensure the security of the Sacred Gem Exchange and also because such a lucratively commissioned position isn’t available to just anyone.

William nodded, “It’s our first time. Could you give us an introduction?”

The Nature Deity, with a playful laugh, responded, “You’re straightforward, aren’t you? You can call me Mila. How big do you plan to play?”

William inquired, “What’s the biggest you have?”

“You jest. This is the largest Sacred Gem Exchange in the third district. You can play as big as you like here.”

Mila kept sizing them up. Despite her Nature Deity level strength, she couldn’t discern their power levels. She noticed William didn’t seem to carry any magical artifacts.

However, Alice was adorned with several items.

The bracelet she wore was clearly not ordinary, possibly made from the tendon of a divine beast or a fierce creature.

And the small sword hanging on the bracelet, though its aura was concealed and unremarkable at first glance, intuition told her it was no low-grade item.

“Do you have an original crystal ore worth 8,000 energy crystals?” William, of course, wasn’t planning on playing small. If they were to play, it would be resolved in one go.

If Alice gambled away everything, that would be truly amusing.

“An original crystal ore worth 8,000 energy crystals?”

Both Alice and Mila turned to look at William.

Alice appeared hesitant and surprised.

Mila’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

It was rare to see a deity willing to gamble 8,000 energy crystals at once. Even Mila, an elite of the Nature Deity level, had a total fortune of merely 20,000 energy crystals.

For someone to gamble an ore worth 8,000 energy crystals in one go was nothing short of lavish.

If William purchases an original crystal ore worth 8,000 energy crystals, regardless of whether he profits or loses, this Sacred Gem Exchange will grant her an 80 energy crystal commission, which is indeed not a small amount.

“Esteemed guests, please follow me,” Mila said, leading William and his companion deeper into the building.

The trio arrived at a courtyard where an old man in a black robe was seated amidst various stones scattered seemingly at random around the area, creating a distinctive scene.

“Mr. Thornwood, these guests wish to purchase an original crystal ore valued at 8,000 energy crystals.” After entering the courtyard, Mila first asked William and his companion to wait, then approached the old man to make a request.

“Raw ore worth eight thousand energy crystals? Choose at will. In the yard, aside from those white raw ores, the value of all other raw stones is above eight thousand energy crystals. You lead them to choose.”

The old man is in charge of managing the stones in this courtyard, where the energy contained is very abundant for enhancing one’s strength. He is responsible for some of the security issues in this yard. Although the Sacred Gem Exchange has a strong backing, it cannot guarantee that some strong individuals, blinded by their losses, won’t act recklessly.

Originally a warrior on Earth, known as the “Swordsman who Pierced through the Worldly Fog,” he is now a Nature Deity-level master of swordsmanship.

With him present, few dare to cause trouble.

While Mila spoke with him, he didn’t even open his eyes.

Yet, he instinctively sensed the presence of the two individuals, surprised to find he couldn’t determine William and Alice’s actual power levels.

When he finally opened his eyes, his gaze was immediately drawn to the Sword of Soulbreaker hanging from Alice’s wrist.

This sword… was extraordinary…

But he couldn’t pinpoint what made it so unique!

What shocked him even more was his inability to discern the power levels of the two visitors. Could they both be above the level of Supreme Deity?
