Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 468: The Artifact of Disobedience, the Indulgent Noah

"Say something, Odin."

Facing the long-time silent god Odin, Noah was persistent and diligent. The gossip fire in his heart was burning fiercely, so much so that his words revealed a kind of gloating that could not be concealed at all.

"I am organizing forces to rescue you now. You can't keep everything to me. We are allies. If you keep silent and don't share information, you are harming your friends in disguise."

"I can handle it on my own. I don't need your help."

Finally, after a long silence, Odin conveyed such a will to help Noah obtain and collect many rare resources. However, facing Noah's active assistance, he chose to refuse.

"Really? According to the information I have collected, your current situation is not optimistic."

Noah showed a worried look because of the information he collected about the aquatic forces established through the development of Baihuang, the Lord of Mountains and Rivers.

Odin, who tried to retrieve the Eternal Spear Gungniya from the Protoss, was portrayed as a demon king who tried to blaspheme the old gods, intending to seize the spear and destroy the world of time and space.

According to the information disclosed by the Protoss, they have used Gungnir, the Eternal Spear, to suppress this blasphemous demon king.

It is said that his heart had been pierced by the Spear of Eternity, causing irreparable damage. That would have been fine, but this "demon king" was also hung on a cross demon-suppressing rack with his limbs nailed to it, and finally, pressed into the Death Zone of Absolute Souls.

In such a desperate situation, there is no possibility of escape by oneself. That is why Noah tried every means to collect relevant information and try to save the incarnation of Odin.

Of course, Noah was very interested in one thing, which was what kind of posture the God-King was in when he was hung on the cross.

Noah expressed his curiosity and wanted to see the true appearance of Odin at this time. As for whether this clone would perish because of this, Noah was not worried.

After all, he is the God King, so he has some background. Even if this clone dies, so what? The worst that can happen is that he can send another one in.

"unnecessary!"

Facing the kind-hearted Noah, Odin, who was obviously in a bad mood, was a little indifferent.

No matter how you look at it, this matter is too degrading. If it gets out, it will not only be laughed at, but he will be nailed to the pillar of shame. As long as the gods exist, this matter will be passed down as an eternal joke.

A dignified God King was actually suppressed by the weapon he had forged with his own hands in the past. If this kind of thing had not really happened, no one would believe it if it were told to others.

"Well, if you don't need it, then you don't need it, but I want to ask you something."

Noah paused for a moment, then

"Do you still want that gun? If not, I'll take it away!"

"When did I say no?"

Odin's voice, unable to suppress his anger, came suddenly.

"This is a Lord-devouring gun. I don't think such a weapon is necessary. Why don't you let me deal with it? This will be a sacrifice that will please the will of the world."

Noah suggested enthusiastically.

He is now extremely interested in every artifact in the world of time and space, as they are the main weapons left behind by the true gods after their fall.

However, judging from Odin's fate, these artifacts have undergone unpredictable changes after tens of thousands of years of sedimentation, especially after being worshipped and offered sacrifices by those races.

Odin's divine spear Gungnir is by no means the only weapon that can devour its master. If these true artifacts left behind in the world of time and space were to be found by their former owners, their fate and treatment would probably not be much better than that of Odin's clone.

Noah had speculations about the status of these true artifacts. These artifacts were created by the true gods ruled by Odin in the past with all their resources. The spirituality contained in them was enough to carry complete consciousness and wisdom.

These true artifacts, which are endowed with self-awareness and wisdom, can assist the true gods in exerting stronger combat power when they are in good shape and at their peak.

Under such a relationship, the consciousness nurtured by the artifact created by the gods with all their efforts is absolutely loyal and there is no need to worry about any rebellion, just like Gungnir in Odin's hands, who is absolutely obedient to the god-king in his peak state.

But the problem is that with the coming of Ragnarok, the artifacts in the hands of the gods were not destroyed together, but preserved. These true artifacts that possessed some of the power of the gods were found and worshipped by the races left after the war of gods.

If only a few hundred or thousand years were to pass, there would probably not be any problem, and any reincarnated god who came could easily gain recognition from the true artifact of the previous life.

But the problem is that the time interval between Odin's contact with the divine spear Gungnir again was too long, so long that the consciousness of the Spear of Eternity had undergone tremendous changes after experiencing the erosion of 100,000 years.

Just imagine, as a divine weapon with complete consciousness, when its former master was at the peak of his powers, it could only serve as a weapon obediently, and could only play a role when the master needed to fight.

But even so, during the battle, one must completely obey the will and command of the gods, and there is no room for one to display his or her own abilities.

As a weapon, even if it is a real artifact, this experience is normal. Which weapon is not like this? But the problem is that after the gods were annihilated, the surviving races of the war of gods found the artifact and worshiped it.

The artifacts replaced the gods of the past. The survivors who longed for the power of the gods prayed, sacrificed, and worshiped the artifacts, offering their faith.

Under the distortion of faith that forged the foundation of the gods' immortality, what kind of artifact can maintain its original loyal thoughts and ideas after being worn out for a hundred years, a thousand years, and tens of thousands of years?
Noah had already investigated and found out that among all the major races, the source of the supreme status of the artifact users was the real artifacts. They obtained the power bestowed by these artifacts and could even use the artifacts.

Just because of this, it has such an honor, a special status, and a complete consciousness. What kind of status does this artifact have among the major worship races?
He is clearly the supreme ruler. Who dares to disobey him? Who dares to resist him? A race without the support of a divine weapon cannot become a strong race in the world of time and space, and will be destroyed by other races that possess divine weapons.

Under such a special environment, the real artifact naturally has a special status that transcends many races. They call gods their ancestors and have been free and unfettered for hundreds of thousands of years, doing whatever they want. How can they go back to the past?

Noah put himself in the situation and felt that he couldn't bear it. His former master came and wanted him to continue to be a dog and use him as a weapon. What a joke!
It would be fine if he was still the true god who was at the peak of his powers in the past, but the problem is that he is not a mortal who has not yet fully recovered his power and has not held the ceremony of ascension to deity, and he has incomplete memories of the past.

This is a fake, and you want it to surrender?

wishful thinking!

With this inference, it is normal for the artifacts to rebel. These real artifacts have been worshipped as gods by the powerful races in the space-time world for hundreds of thousands of years. It is impossible for them to be willing to return to the past. Even if they just maintain the status quo, it would be great.

Odin thought that he had found the Spear of Eternity, and that a slight touch would be enough to make Gungnir return on his own initiative. This could be said to be a rather naive and beautiful fantasy.

Over the long course of time, the true artifacts that always had clear wills have long lost their former loyalty. They compare themselves to the gods of the past, so how could they possibly bow to the returning God-King?
"That is my weapon, I will break it with my own hands!" A weapon that no longer obeys orders and will rebel and kill its master naturally has no need to exist. Even if the Spear of Eternity was created with all the efforts of the God-King who was at the peak of his powers, this is not a reason or basis for betrayal.

"Okay, the Spear of Eternity is yours, but what about the other real artifacts?"

Although Noah's main focus at present is still on collecting the Black King Set, he still covets those real artifacts.

Unfortunately, each of these true artifacts has already become a god. If you want to get them, you must fight with the race that protects and worships them.

"If you can get it, it will naturally be yours."

The God King Odin showed his generosity and magnanimity at this moment. Before this, Noah also coveted the artifacts of the time and space world, but when he proposed it, the God King was vague and it was obvious that he was reluctant to part with the weapons left by the former gods.

Now, after suffering such a huge setback, the God King has come to terms with it. A weapon that betrays its master, no matter how good or powerful it is, has lost its meaning of existence, and remaking it is the best way to deal with it.

"But you can only use these artifacts as sacrifices and never use them."

"Of course, I don't want to be betrayed at the critical moment!"

Be unfaithful once, never be faithful again.

This is not only a criterion for choosing a partner, but also a criterion for choosing weapons. It is even more critical. After all, a betraying partner will only cause great damage to a person, but on the battlefield, a betraying weapon can cause the holder to lose his life.

Whenever there is any suspected risk, treat it as a confirmed matter.

"Whatever you want to do, just go ahead and do it!"

Odin's voice revealed fatigue and loss.

"But once you start collecting real artifacts, be prepared to be besieged!"

"Besiege?"

After hearing Odin's reminder, Noah understood that Gungnir, the Eternal Spear, was the main reason for Odin's downfall, but the real force that caused him to downfall was not just this divine spear.

"Could it be that all the real artifacts participated in the siege against you?"

"You guessed it. I have nothing to say."

"No, no, you still have to tell me in detail. I can only guess what happened roughly. How can you, who experienced it personally, know it clearly? I want to know which real artifacts participated in the siege against you."

"all!"

"All? Tsk, no wonder!"

Noah had seen the fighting power displayed by Odin as the resurrected God King. He was absolutely invincible among his peers. Even if he were to face him, Noah would still be unsure.

This God King has experienced too many battles in the past years. Even if he has only recovered part of his memory, he is still a Saint Master-level existence in the field of fighting, or he is a true God of War himself.

There is no one who can become a God King who cannot be defeated. Theoretically, in this world of space and time where there are no true gods or Dragon King-level combat power, Odin, who has the same development time as Noah, is invincible and should not be defeated.

But being besieged by more than ten real artifacts is another matter. Moreover, once the real artifacts move, those so-called artifact users will definitely get involved.

In the eyes of Noah and Odin, these guys who have become slaves of artifacts are extremely pitiful, but their fighting power is real. Every artifact user is a king-level elite in his respective race.

After gaining the power of the divine weapon, its combat capability is definitely far superior, even enough to crush most legends in the material world.

"You know enough!"

Odin's attitude became more and more distinct towards Noah, whose words were full of gloating and who was just looking for fun.

"God Odin, don't worry. This matter will never be heard by any living being. Outside of the world of time and space, apart from you and me, there will definitely not be a third being who knows about it."

Although the news that the God King who pretended to be an old god was suppressed was known to everyone in the Space-Time Realm, due to the special structure of the Space-Time Realm, what happened there would basically not spread to the outside world.

"So much the better."

The guarantee made by the Golden Dragon is undoubtedly reassuring, but Noah is no longer a Golden Dragon in the traditional sense.

The only similarity between him and the golden dragon now is probably that his scales are golden in color. The substance inside is completely different. This guy has transcended his original race and evolved into a completely new species of dragon.

Once he becomes the Dragon King, he will develop and evolve a new branch of the dragon clan with himself as the source. As for how strong this dragon clan can eventually grow, it depends on him.

The upper limit of any dragon clan is determined by its creator, the Dragon King or the Dragon God, but it does not mean that they can do whatever they want.

"Speaking of which, if you are in trouble, will I be implicated by you as well?"

After turning his gaze back to the world of time and space, Noah had to think about a very realistic problem. His clone, the White Emperor, the Lord of Mountains and Rivers, had walked with the incarnation of Odin many times, and many people had witnessed his traces. Those races that worshipped the artifact would discover this sooner or later as long as they investigated.

"You finally asked this question. I was thinking about whether I should remind you."

"Considering reminding me? Odin!"

Noah's expression changed.

"I didn't betray you, but they did find you. They are now pressing me for your identity."

"Since it has already been traced back to me, why are you still considering whether to remind me?"

"You're smiling so happily."
