I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means-Chapter 871 - 533 Felik Oasis

Chapter 871 -533 Felik Oasis

The scorching sun hung high in the boundless blue sky, baking the endless desert until it was scorching hot. It seemed as if every grain of sand was trembling in the heat waves, releasing a searing breath.

The sky was a white bright blue, without a single cloud daring to appear here. Only the sun dominated the sky, relentlessly pouring down golden rays, adding a dazzling gold to the desert.

In this vast and harsh sea of sand, there were almost no signs of life, with only a few occasional withered yellow bushes stubbornly rooted in the sand. Their branches and leaves had lost their former vitality, yet they still stood stubbornly, becoming a rare ornament in this desolate land.

In the depths of this seemingly lifeless desert, a caravan stretching hundreds of meters was slowly moving forward, like a thin black line, tracing the trajectory of life on the golden sands.

The camels in the caravan carried heavy cargo, their steps steady and powerful, occasionally exhaling white breath that stood out in the scorching air. They and the caravan staff alike were enduring the blazing sun. As the caravan moved, the sound of camel bells rang out, crisp and long, piercing the silent desert and becoming the most beautiful melody in this desolate world.

At the end of the caravan, however, things were a bit different.

Lis leisurely sat on a camel, swaying slowly at the back of the caravan, flipping through a thick, ancient book.

A specially made magic item kept the area around him cool, dispelling the oppressive heat of the desert.

Even the camel Lis was sitting on seemed quite comfortable, shaking its head and looking around. Perhaps this was the first time since being bought by the caravan that it had encountered such a leisurely journey.

But behind Lis, Duke was not so fortunate.

At this moment, he was wearing only a pair of white trousers, his chest covered in sweat mixed with sand, looking very miserable.

Duke followed behind Lis obediently, his steps uneven.

The sand worm attack on the caravan had occurred several days ago. During these days, Duke had done nothing, focusing entirely on following Lis and receiving his guidance.

Duke’s profession was an assassin. He originally thought Lis would give him some combat experience and skill guidance, but he didn’t expect Lis to directly teach him several advanced assassin combat techniques after asking about his abilities.

Lis even demonstrated techniques in front of him, catching Duke off guard.

Could Lord Lis be a Golden Rank assassin?

But what about the bow and arrow technique used to deal with the sand worms before? Isn’t that Hunter’s ability?

Duke was full of doubts but did not ask Lis.

It would be better to spend this time learning as much as possible from Lis.

Under Lis’s guidance, Duke began rigorous training, filling his days with activity.

“Before you break through to Golden Rank, you are unable to use Shadow Power to conceal your presence. At this time, the assassin’s Stealth Skill does not truly make you disappear.”

“Shadows, wind sounds, cover, blind spots…”

“Except for certain special situations, the assassin professionals’ combat relies on stealth, so you should make the most of the surrounding environment to conceal your actions…”

“Yes, teacher.”

Duke listened to Lis’s voice coming from ahead, feeling the soreness in his body, and nodded earnestly.

Lis didn’t mind Duke calling him teacher.

Although it didn’t take much effort, he had indeed instructed Duke for a few days.

During these days with Blais’s caravan, besides guiding Duke, Lis spent most of his time studying the casting knowledge obtained from Matteus.

Matteus left behind a lot of Extraordinary Knowledge, but it was all related to the domain of casting.

Actually, Matteus’s own strength was quite formidable, but aside from reminders about the Path to Divinity, he left no other related knowledge.

From this, it was clear that for Matteus, achievements and legacy in casting were more important.

For instance, Lis’s book [Matteus’s Casting Notes], recorded all of Matteus’s insights in the casting domain.

Aside from the casting of Legendary Rank weapons and equipment, it even included Matteus’s exploration of casting Half-God Artifacts.

Yes, Half-God Artifacts!

In a sense, Half-God Artifacts already surpassed the legendary rank, possessing some traits of divine power.

But very few people researched this area. Like Divine Artifacts, Half-God Artifacts also required the buff from Divine Power.

The lofty Divine wouldn’t waste their power forging something that served them little purpose.

Most existing Half-God Artifacts were forged by demigods themselves relying on their own strength while on the Path to Divinity.

However, Matteus’s situation was special. He was the Divine Son of the Dwarf God of Forging, granting him the qualifications to study Half-God Artifacts.

[Matteus’s Casting Notes] also contained many related drawings and notes, which were very precious knowledge.

Much of the knowledge in this notebook was challenging for Lis to digest.

This was despite his prior extensive study of equipment casting techniques, having personally forged legendary equipment, and possessing quite a solid knowledge base.

For someone else, Matteus’s notebook would be like a celestial script, incomprehensible.

Lis was currently in such a situation, with most of his mind focused on the casting notes, sparing some attention to observe Duke.freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
