Even Moro himself didn't think he could do such a thing.

The fact that Nemus was able to do this must mean he colluded with the Underworld Corpse.

"Charge in! Kill Nemes, that Silver Traitor!" Moro shouted immediately. The grain owners and others he had previously subdued, as well as the individuals who had been elevated to Silver Species by Moro's Silver Qi, could only obey Moro's orders and rush into the ghoul territory.

"No, this is definitely not the incident involving the ghost corpses." The city lord, though inside, could sense something was different.

The ghost corpse incident was a disaster, a purely harmful disaster.

However, while the current aura of these corpses still possesses corrosive and destructive properties, its core has undergone a transformation.

"Blackening and a certain degree of whitening!" The city lord had his answer.

Although she was of dragon blood, the city lord did not simply enjoy herself after becoming the strongest; she also worked hard to improve herself.

After the cards reached their limit of improvement and the numerical values ​​also hit a bottleneck, the city lord turned his attention to arcane arts and alchemy.

These two techniques are among the few ways that Silver City can enhance its power outside of the card system.

Arcane arts are spells that no longer use cards, but instead use materials as a cost.

Alchemy, on the other hand, delves into the cards, uncovering their inherent potential and using rituals and symbols to obtain a blessing beyond the cards themselves.

Of course, people preferred to study alchemy during this process.

Because anyone who studies alchemy carefully will find that it can actually encompass esoteric arts to a certain extent.

Furthermore, as one delves deeper, it becomes easy to discern that the entire Silver City is maintained and operated by alchemy.

The potential of alchemy is even higher.

This is precisely why the alchemy lineage has repeatedly emerged victorious in the struggle between the secret arts and alchemy lineages.

"That's right. According to the nature of alchemy, corruption and whitening are sequential and have an internal opposition, but they are not completely hostile."

"However, the past incident involving the undead has always been a point of contention..."

"No...it's not always about being opposed, it's just that the connection between them isn't with us, so..."

"What exactly is a savior?" The city lord was now increasingly aware of some of the questions hidden behind the Silver City.

Thinking about this problem, the city lord even had a moment of wanting to 'surrender'.

She couldn't help but think that if she truly surrendered to Moro and became his woman, just as he fantasized, she would have her personality eroded.

Then perhaps the fear behind it won't attack you.

but……

The city lord couldn't help but think of Nems.

This mysterious and powerful figure must have known something to create this 'memory flashback'.

His spirit was stirred by the presence of Nemus, and the city lord completely abandoned the idea of ​​compromising.

At that moment, Moro felt as if he had lost something.

“Fate has broken free…” Nemus stood at the center of the event, observing the scene, and couldn’t help but laugh.

According to its original 'fate'.

Moro should be the absolute protagonist of the Silver City.

They were originally lowly people who were oppressed and bullied.

The person you love was killed because of your 'mistake'.

When he had nothing left, Moro awakened his abilities, which were discovered by the city lord's men.

Then he quickly reversed the situation, subduing his former enemies and suppressing all those who dared to disobey.

They unexpectedly witnessed the beauty hidden beneath the city lord's ordinary appearance and special abilities.

Then he made up his mind to win over the city lord.

During the subsequent banquet, he used the city lord's influence to humiliate the Lord of the Desolate Tomb.

Afterwards, thanks to the incident involving the undead corpses, his strength increased rapidly.

Then he found Donna's reincarnation, found her first, and then brought Donna to his side as a savior.

Past mistakes have been made up for, past regrets have been redeemed, and former lovers have been resurrected.

Later, during the incident involving the corpses of the dead, he displayed his savior qualities, making the city lord realize Moro's 'charm' and choose to remain devoted to him despite the fact that Moro had other women around him.

However, now, the appearance of Nemes has broken one of the 'shackles'.

In this situation, the 'charm' brought by the Moro traits was not so great, at least it did not make the city lord completely despair.

Therefore, the city lord was not completely captured by fate, and as Nemes said, he broke free.

“And once fate has a loophole, then the deviations will increase.” Nemus observed ‘favoritism’ and sensed that this force of fate was beginning to falter.

The sword in Nemus's hand trembled slightly.

The [Swordsmanship] skill, which was originally upgraded from a Silver Card to a Six-Star Card through promotion to a Silver Card, showed a slight fluctuation at this moment.

"The opportunity to advance to the seventh star?" Nemus looked up at the sky.

Aside from that 'favoritism towards fate', some normal forces of fate also began to flow in at this moment.

The entire Silver City is no longer in a state where only Moro enjoys the favor of fate.

This is the change of fate.

"That's just how fate is; if something is missing here, it will be made up for there."

"In essence, the same is true of precepts. By restricting oneself through precepts, one can naturally obtain other forms of fulfillment."

Nems gained a deeper understanding of the connections between the various rules.

Although rules have a specific order, this does not mean that later rules are inferior to earlier ones.

"This is a whole system ordered by numbers, and each rule is not isolated."

"With the entry of the main destiny, Moro is no longer a threat."

"Now we'll see what tricks the mastermind behind this will pull."

Nemus's senses continued to radiate, observing all the changes in this event.

If the mastermind doesn't make a move soon, then Nemus will inevitably seize the opportunity to awaken the undead and then draw the fate of the main body into the game.

By sacrificing Moro, the birth of the Philosopher's Stone was forcibly propelled.

In this way, although the effect of the Philosopher's Stone will be weaker, it will still benefit Nemus, and the main destiny will be happy to see this.

Not only can Nemus break the blood curse of Dartmenley, but he can also obtain a Philosopher's Stone that can drive the emergence of golden seeds in large quantities.

However, this is definitely not what the mastermind behind the scenes wants to see; his goal is not just a gold-seed manufacturing device.

Instead, it is a stronger path that allows more people to reach the mythical species.

If that weren't the case, he probably wouldn't have needed to bring Dartmenley into the game and sacrifice him for so long.

It was at this moment that Nemus sensed the change.

A new person has been refreshed in the event.

Chapter 759 The Mastermind

Nems had previously made a judgment.

Those are the refreshers in Silver City, mostly 'memory'.

This memory comes from Saint-Datemenly.

Everyone he had met in his life, everyone related to him, everyone he knew, all appeared in the Silver City in the form of these memories.

Essentially, the refresher is a part of the zombie.

They cultivate their skills, elevate them, and then embark on a path of despair to advance to the Silver Seed, which is essentially the alchemical stage after corruption—albinism.

It's essentially letting the refresher act as a tool to refine themselves.

The emergence of people who have lost common sense is very likely not because these people have been working in workshops for a long time.

It is highly likely that this is because this part of their 'memory' has been completely purified.

These memories had no further value for refinement, so the alchemical rituals of the Silver City ceased to maintain their 'existence'.

Nemes didn't know who Saint Dartmentley knew.

By then, Nems knew that there must be someone he knew among these people.

Looking at the refresher who bore a resemblance to himself, Nemus smiled and nodded at the other.

Nemus learned from fate that there were nine 'True Spirits' in total.

Six of the true spirits are already dead.

Of the remaining three True Spirits, the Sun God is one, and I am the ninth.

Then there is another true spirit.

Nemus once doubted the God of Discipline.

However, he quickly abandoned this doubt.

If the God of the Commandments is another true spirit, He must know a great deal of information.

It is impossible for me to allow myself to steal His divinity like this.

Only at this moment did Nemes confirm the existence of this other surviving True Spirit.

“It seems I was completely prejudiced beforehand,” Nems said.

"Were you fooled by my corpse? Indeed." Dina nodded, seemingly assessing Nemus's condition.

When Nemus entered the Land of Sleep, he saw Dina's corpse.

On the other person, he discovered the characteristics of Dartmenli's hand bones, as well as the wound on his back from being killed by the Sun Saint.

Therefore, he instinctively believed that Dina had been killed by the Sun Saint.

As a mere golden seed, he had little room for further struggle.

However, it now appears that all of this was arranged by Dina.

Why would Saint Dartmentli fight against the Sun Saint alongside Dinah?

Why did he want to transplant his hand bones to Dina?

It's even possible that this is why Nemus, after emerging from the abyss, directly encountered Nair Dartmenley and became entangled with the Dartmenley family.

In fact, these questions have already been answered.

The mere fact that 'Dina is dead' created a kind of cognitive barrier that prevented Naims from discovering the real problem.

And now, the results are before us.

Dina did not die.

He was not sacrificed in his own world because there was no great calamity.

He grew into a golden seed and began his 'transformation plan'.

Therefore, he did not obtain the divine status of the Commandments, but instead acquired another special thing—the silver remnants.

With the help of this force, Dina began to make her own plans.

“The timing doesn’t quite match up. You and I are from the same era, even if we are separated by worlds. You shouldn’t have met Saint-Datmenley, who lived six or seven hundred years ago.”

"What supports you... Dragon?" Nemus began, but his mind had already grasped a crucial piece of information.

The city lord over there is undergoing some kind of transformation, and some dragon scales are faintly appearing on his body.

Thus, the question has been answered.

Dina received help from the remnants of the Dragon God, which is why there is a dragon bloodline in the Silver City.

"As expected of the person closest to me." Dina clapped her hands.

During this process, various lights continuously gathered around Dina, and cards appeared around him one after another.

His existence represents the pinnacle of alchemical rituals.
