Chapter 2062 - 2051: Activating the Battle Armor
Ning Fan asked, holding the keychain, "Are you referring to this holy sword?""Yes. This holy sword is not activated."
Seeing Ning Fan's silly smile, Vivian poured cold water and said, "Don't think too much. Without holy power, this is just decoration..."
As she spoke, Vivian was so surprised that her eyes almost popped out, and she said in disbelief, "How did you do that?"
At this moment, Ning Fan was holding a nearly two-meter long Cross Sword in his hand, its surface emitting a strong white light, looking as if it's covered with white flames.
"I don't know either."
Staring blankly at the laser sword in his hand, Ning Fan was equally dumbfounded.
Vivian questioned in surprise, "Do you have holy power?"
"I don't."
After saying that, Ning Fan's eyes flickered.
As the flame-like white light on the surface of the Cross Sword disappeared at a visible speed, its body continuously shrunk, once again becoming the decoration on the keychain.
"You still say you don't have holy power?"
Vivian squinted with a displeased expression, and if you could see, you would notice above her head, words about reduced favorability continuously appearing.
Noticing the fierce light in Vivian's eyes, Ning Fan said with a headache, "Can you please calm down first? You're so familiar with holy power, don't you have any sense about whether I have it or not?"
"Uh..."
Vivian was embarrassed, knowing that if Ning Fan had holy power, he definitely couldn't hide it from her.
Despite that, she still stubbornly said, "Then, how do you explain this?"
"How else can it be? Of course, it's because of my extraordinary talent, an unparalleled genius among tens of thousands."
When saying this, Ning Fan couldn't hide the joy in his eyes. He didn't expect the Light of Life could be used as holy power.
At that moment, when Vivian mentioned again that only holy power could use it, Ning Fan subconsciously activated the Light of Life.
Unexpectedly, it really worked.
"The holy sword is activated, then..."
Ning Fan couldn't help but turn his gaze toward that set of holy artifacts.
At this time, Vivian took a step forward, blocking Ning Fan.
Noticing the complexity in Vivian's eyes, Ning Fan said seriously, "Vivian, trust me."
Vivian's expression changed, and she said somewhat bitterly, "Can I trust you?"
"Absolutely. When have I ever deceived you?"
"I..."
As if recalling something, Vivian stepped aside with a bitter expression.
Ning Fan thought to himself, "A horse's strength is known after a long journey, a person's heart after a long time. Trust isn't built in a day. Sooner or later, you'll understand the real me."
Ning Fan was well aware of why the sudden scene happened earlier.
Ever since he "subdued" Vivian, the destinies of man and dragon have to some extent intertwined.
Ning Fan clearly knew that although it seemed he could restrain Vivian with the Light of Life, he was not capable of killing her.
Except for causing pain, he couldn't even leave a wound on Vivian.
Moreover, he wasn't sure how long such pain could last, given Vivian's extraordinary origins, who knows what hidden abilities she might have.
Therefore, Ning Fan always focused on appeasement, even if Vivian made some mistakes, he would not punish her and did not believe he could truly control her life and death.
Similarly, Vivian also understood in her heart, although restrained, she never showed the humbleness of a captive.
Yet this balance was broken today.
A set of complete holy artifacts, comparable in power to divine artifacts, fell into Ning Fan's hands. With the cunning and suspicious nature of a Dark Dragon, how could Vivian not worry about her life, which is why she instinctively blocked in front.
As for the final concession, it was not out of trust at all, but because she simply couldn't stop it.
As soon as Ning Fan had a thought, she would again fall into unbearable pain.
But Vivian did not know that when Ning Fan said those words, he was sincere, without a trace of insincerity.
When this reckless, willful, cunning Evil Dragon swore seriously by the Ancestral Dragon God to assist him in entering the Divine Realm.
Ning Fan's aversion to Vivian completely vanished; he regarded her as a friend in his heart.
From now on, as long as Vivian does not betray him, even if one day she commits a heinous crime, Ning Fan is willing to share the burden with her.
"A drop of kindness must be repaid with a spring of gratitude. A tooth for a tooth, and a head for a head."
This is Ning Fan's principle of life.
This may be somewhat incorrect in his worldview,
But if one day he truly has to choose righteousness over family,
Ning Fan would rather do it himself than let someone he recognizes die tragically at the hands of others.
As Ning Fan approached the sacred battle armor, Vivian subconsciously retreated.
From the Cross Sword just now, she could already feel a force capable of piercing scales.
Noticing Vivian's retreat, Ning Fan had no choice but to slow his pace again, fearing to provoke this suspicious Dark Dragon.
Touching the battle armor's smooth, mirror-like exterior, Ning Fan wondered if it was an illusion. Though it appeared to have the chill of metal, he could feel a warm elasticity, as if the battle armor were alive.
"Should I just put it on?"
Ning Fan placed his hand on the battle armor. With a thought, the Light of Life flowed slowly over the surface of the battle armor like a stream.
At that moment, the battle armor, which stood at least two and a half meters tall, transformed into a beam of white light and wrapped around Ning Fan.
When the light dissipated, a majestic Silver Armor War God stood in its place.
"The holy artifact has actually recognized a master!"
Seeing this, Vivian's pupils contracted. She glanced at Ning Fan vigilantly and retreated a few steps further.
The difference between a holy artifact and a divine artifact lies partly in whether it can recognize a master.
As long as the usage conditions are met, basically anyone can use a holy artifact.
For instance, the battle armor Ning Fan wore required holy power as a condition. Any priest cultivating holy power could easily use it.
But recognizing a master is different; a holy artifact with a spiritual imprint can only be used by one person.
Even if others obtain it, it's just a decoration.
Divine items have spirits. Generally, holy artifacts don't have the function to recognize masters because they don't possess an artifact spirit.
The main benefit of recognizing a master is the ability to fully exert the equipment's power. Depending on the crafting functions, there are many other uses.
"Could it be that this isn't a holy artifact, but an incomplete demi-god artifact?"
Thinking of this point, Vivian seemed to understand why this battle armor remained in the Origin World.
It was likely that when the gods retreated, the armor's crafter couldn't take it away.
If recklessly opened during the crucial phase of crafting a divine artifact, it would only lead to total failure.
"The true owner of the armor might have hoped to return to the Origin World someday. But regretfully, they never could. I just wonder which Divine Spirit of the God King of Light series crafted this."
During the era of the gods' descent, the current God King of Light in the Divine Realm was merely a lower divine entering the realm. Thus, Vivian dared to assert that the armor was not bestowed by the God King of Light.
