Chapter 136: If humans can become gods, why can’t Warcraft?

After hearing Firodoxia's answer, Helia couldn't help but curl her lips and raised one eyebrow, "You have to know that there is no shortage of people around me who are valuable to me. They must first have value before they can come to my side and serve me."

“Why should I spend time and energy to cultivate your value?”

The girl was silent for a moment, and then, like a girl of her age, she smiled sweetly and replied, "Because the value of those people does not only belong to you. They may have great value, but they can also be loyal to anyone else."

"But I am different. Princess, you trained me, so I only belong to you. I only work for you, and my value only exists because of you."

The answer was unexpected, but it hit Helia's heart. She couldn't be more satisfied with the girl in front of her. She had enough ambition and knew how to seize opportunities, so she grabbed Helia's vine and tried her best to climb up.

Although she was not clear about Helia's situation, she understood what Helia needed, so she gave everything she could - herself, her loyalty and herself, in exchange for Helia's protection and reuse.

This was not an equal transaction. Philodosiya was of little value, and Helia's weight was heavy, but Helia was willing to pay for the other party's inflated ambitions.

"What a nice thing to say. I really didn't misjudge you." Helia squinted her eyes in satisfaction, and then patted Firodoxia on the back. "From now on, I will ask a teacher to teach you well. I want to see your achievements in a year."

"This determines whether you can return to the palace with me. It also determines your future fate. Take it seriously."

"Thank you for your generosity." Firodoxia stood up with the help of Helia and gave her a non-standard salute, which she learned from watching others do. Although it was not standard, it made Helia see her sincerity and determination.

After Philodosiya left, Helia leaned against the sofa and slowly closed her eyes. She was really tired after running all the way.

After resting for a while, I would go to ask the teachers about the situation... With this thought in mind, she fell asleep little by little.

Helia didn't care much about her reputation. Whether people said she was arrogant or brave, it had nothing to do with Helia. She lived for herself, not for others. No matter what others said, it had little effect on her.

But Eric couldn't stand anyone saying bad things about his beloved sister, so the drama of mother and daughter turning against each other never spread. The onlookers at the time were either soldiers stationed in the city or survivors in the refugee camp. Under Eric's pressure, no one dared to speak out about it.

Surprisingly, after hearing that Helia had left with a girl, some children in the refugee camp ran to the door of the house where Helia was temporarily staying in Maduo, and begged Princess Helia to take them with her as well.

In the end, of course, they were taken back by the patrolling guards. Today, two incompetent knights were stripped of their knighthood and demoted to civilians. They did not dare to risk angering Eric and Helia by allowing these children to make noise here.

Okale came to Maduo and discussed with Hilda the resettlement of refugees and the defense of the city. When Ronniesi and Cheko heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess had been found and was now in Maduo, they also rushed over without stopping.

The first thing Helia saw when she opened her eyes was Ronnie's unshaven face. In just one year, he looked much older, thinner, and looked haggard.

On the other hand, Helia did not lose weight during the year she was missing. Instead, she gained a lot of weight. She also grew taller and had rosy skin. It was obvious that she was well taken care of.

"I have failed in my duty, Your Highness, please punish me!" Ronnie knelt as soon as they met. Helia stared at the falling snow on his shoulders and guessed that he must have come all the way here in the snow. As soon as he got off his horse, he probably came to her room without even taking a rest.

"Get up quickly." Helia held the man's arm and helped him up. She looked him up and down carefully, and confirmed that Ronnie was fine. She couldn't help but open her arms and hug him.

"You have worked hard."

After hearing these words, Ronnie's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down. Although it was a bit against the rules, he still hugged her back gently, and the two soon separated.

"Did Chico come back with you? Why didn't I see him?" Helia asked.

"Just now, when he saw that His Highness was still resting, he went to find Prince Eric first. I guess he wanted to tell His Highness Eric what he found out in Saturde." Ronnie replied.

Helia patted his arm and said, "Then go and have a good rest now. I have to discuss some things with the teachers. Let's have dinner together tonight and I will talk to you in detail."

"it is good."

Helia changed her clothes and went to Hilda's office. After reporting, she went in and saw that it was crowded with people and it was really lively.

"Xiaoya, you're here." Hilda forced a smile at her. Her voice was a little weak and she looked exhausted. It seemed as if she was about to faint in the next second.

"Sister, am I disturbing you?" Helia asked.

"No, we were just talking about the Sad Forest, and I thought you might be curious, so why not sit down and listen with us?" Hilda said.

Okalai brought a soft chair to Helia. When their eyes met, Helia smiled at him and whispered, "Brother Okalai."

"Yeah." Okale touched her head and didn't say anything more. Seeing that she was still so energetic, he felt relieved.

It was Grinton who came to report the situation. Angert and Dean Philip were not there. Looking at Grinton's gloomy expression and bandaged arm, it seemed that everyone had suffered serious injuries.

"Just as Princess Helia said, some of the magical beasts in the Sad Forest have evolved self-awareness. Not only can they speak human language, they have also evolved human limbs. The more powerful the magical beast, the more human-like it looks."

"But fortunately, there are not many of them, and they have digested a lot of them internally. But the problem is that they have learned to stick together. This attack was planned by them together, in an attempt to take away the land where we live."

"We followed the trail all the way to a rift valley deep in the forest, where we discovered a site that was suspected to be a temple dedicated to gods in ancient times."

"The monsters were hiding in the temple. We could only explore carefully and found the statue of the fallen sky god Adalesi and the remains of the winged man buried with him."

"And those intelligent monsters, somehow they have mastered the method of becoming gods, and have already arranged the ceremony in the temple, waiting for us to show up and start the ceremony."

"We wanted to stop them, but we were entangled by the resurrected winged people. The statue of Adalassi still had some power left. We were unable to interrupt them, but we didn't expect that we actually made them succeed."

Helia held her forehead, trying to digest Glinton's words, and asked uncertainly: "Teacher, you mean that the monster has become a god?"

Greenton nodded without hesitation, and then let out a long breath in anger, "And we suspect that we are part of the ritual. Before this, the monsters didn't take action. They deliberately led us over. They have been waiting for us."

He fixed his eyes on Helia, "But I suspect that the person they are waiting for is not us, but Princess Helia."

"Me?" Helia pointed at herself in confusion, "But I didn't go either."

"For some reason, they seemed to be very sure that you would go, so they were very surprised when they didn't find you among us." Glinton continued to explain, "There are a total of ten high-level evolved monsters. They are all kings, but they all obey a leader - Golesa."

"It is a giant python, said to be from ancient times, sleeping underground until the restlessness of evolution awakened it."

"Although Her Highness Helia is missing from the ceremony, they seem to have another remedy plan, but it is relatively dangerous. We tried our best to stop it, but we were restricted by the restrictions of the temple."

"Golesha devoured the other nine kings, broke through the power limit, and gained godhood."

Helia clapped her hands and analyzed, "It seems that the other low-level magical beasts that have developed self-awareness have been devoured by the Ten Kings. This is the big fish eating the small fish."

Greenton nodded. "We think so too. Their internal digestion is not a good or bad thing for us."

"Golesha, who possesses the divine power, is very difficult to deal with, but fortunately, the gods stood on our side and blessed us. Although we received the help of the gods, Golesha possessed the power and body of a god that was comparable to that of a god. We paid a heavy price and finally managed to kill Golesha on the spot."

"All the other magicians except me were seriously injured, especially the dean. There is currently no healing magician who can match the dean's level. His injuries are difficult to heal and he is still in a coma. I'm afraid..."

Greenton looked heavy-hearted, and everyone knew exactly what he had not finished saying. The entire office suddenly fell into a solemn silence.

"Did you bring back Golesa's body?" Helia suddenly asked.

Greenton nodded. "Of course, we plan to study it carefully."

"Maybe, I can use Golesa to save the dean." Helia supported her head and said thoughtfully.

Even though Goleza is dead, it is also a god who has gained divinity. Its corpse is the body of a god, which contains great power. She can use the heart of the dragon to repair her own heart, and maybe she can use Goleza's power to heal Dean Philip.

The rank of God can't be lower than that of Dean Philip, right?

"Really?" Glinton asked in surprise, "Princess Helia, do you really have a solution?"

Helia nodded hesitantly and held up five fingers. "But I'm not sure. Just 50 percent."

Philip's influence on the current world situation is too important. If he were to become disabled or die, it would not only affect Carter's College, but also the entire magical world.

He is the number one known person in the magic world today, and he is very firm in the neutral position of Carter's College. He is an important weight in maintaining the balance of power among all parties.

If someone else were to take over, there was no guarantee that the new dean would continue to maintain a neutral position. If he did not maintain neutrality, no matter which side he sided with, even if the academy stood on the side of the Otis Empire, it would not be a good thing for Helia.

The Empire already has an Abraham College. If we add Carterth College to the mix, it can be said that more than half of the high-level magicians in the entire continent will be concentrated in the Otis Empire.

The balance among the three kingdoms was no longer there. No matter whether the Xiali Empire and the Turton Dynasty united to fight against the Otis Empire, or the Otis Empire relied on its advantage in the magic world to declare war on the two countries, the result would be the same: the imperial war was imminent.

Countless lives will be lost and war will rage everywhere. The old order will be shattered, and the new order is still unknown. The continent will be reshuffled, and it is possible that a civil war will be triggered among the gods.

Helia did not want to fight. She wanted to break the existing order, but not by means of war. Even though it was the fastest, most effective, and most powerful, no matter which side became the winner in the history books, the ones who would suffer would be the lowest-level civilians.

You said Philip is just a person, is he that important? Besides, human life span is limited, and he will definitely die in the future. Isn't it the same whether he dies early or late?

Philip is not important. What is important is his status and identity. He is the number one in the magic world, the dean of Carter's College, and a staunchly neutral high-level magician. These are his titles and the capital that enables him to influence the world.
