Chapter 2281: The Strangeness of the Blazing Sun
But we can't just blame Diana, because each region on Runeterra has its own beliefs. For example, the twin cities of Zaun believe in the wind god Ghana, the Freljord has their own demigods such as Ornn and Volibear, but there is also the religion of Lissandra and the three sisters, and the islands around Bilgewater believe in the god of sea beasts, etc. The nearest Shurima region believes in the sun, and it is much more difficult to get them to convert to the moon than to rob other regions of their beliefs.
Demacia's beliefs are relatively free, but there are also legends of angel sisters. Noxus probably has no chance of preaching there, let alone the Shadow Isles, where there is not even a living person.
So it's good that Victor can let the Glorious Cult occupy Bilgewater. Even so, they still have to compete with the forces of the Cult of Sea Beasts.
In short, the cake of faith on Runeterra has been divided up almost, and it is difficult for Diana to grab a piece of cake from many forces.
After all, she doesn't have the ability to bewitch... ahem, win people's hearts like Lin Jiu. Even the faith that Lin Jiu developed in this world was just taking advantage of the fact that Shurima believed in the sun. Of course, relying on the ability of the "Son of the Sun", Lin Jiu could also develop the Church of the Sun from scratch, but it was too slow. If there was no local force that could "occupy the magpie's nest", Lin Jiu would not bother to develop the sun force.
You can't blame Diana for staying on Mount Targon for a long time and not developing the Bright Moon Sect. On the contrary, correcting the extreme faith of the Fiery Sun Sect can make the Bright Moon Sect regain its glory on Mount Targon. So it seems that Diana's IQ is still online.
[Hint: You have triggered the hidden task. Do you accept the hidden task? ]
[Hint: Accepting the hidden task will be merged with the main task, and the task difficulty will increase. ]
"Accept." Lin Jiu chose to accept the hidden task without any hesitation, which should now be called the hidden main task. The increase in task difficulty is generally implemented in the strength of the boss in the final ring of the task. Lin Jiu has nothing to worry about. If his team doesn't work, he will call for help and bring the Sun Legion of the Sun Empire to stage another wave of human wave tactics.
[Hidden Main Quest: The Anomaly of the Fiery Sun]
Difficulty level: Lv.53~? ? ?
Quest information: Dawn Leona seeks help and seems to have discovered that there are anomalies in the current Fiery Sun Sect. Please investigate the specific anomalies and find the source of the anomalies.
Quest deadline: 15 natural days.
Quest reward: Complete Sun Origin x1.
Failure penalty: forced execution.
……
The hidden main quest is to investigate the anomalies of the Fiery Sun Sect, or more precisely, to investigate the source of the anomalies. The original main quest was to find some clues from a guy. Since the anomalies of the Fiery Sun Sect belong to the hidden main quest, it means that the source of the anomaly is originally related to his main quest.
Perhaps looking for clues from that hidden person is to contact the source of the anomaly through another line. The hidden main quest is to follow the line of the Sun Sect. Facing such a force with a deep foundation in the Rune Land, the difficulty of the quest naturally increased a lot.
However, Lin Jiucai felt that it was challenging. It was good to have a deep foundation. The reincarnation clone ability he chose to enter this derivative world this time came from Xi's "God Source Devouring". After all, there are many gods in this world.
However, after temporarily inheriting this ability, Lin Jiucai knew that this ability was not just as simple as God Source Devouring, but an ability to prompt the origin. It's just that the effect of God Source is the best. I hope that the Sun Sect of Giant God Peak has the ability to call more star spirits to help.
And the deep foundation means that the treasures of the Sun Sect are very precious. That is a treasure house that has been accumulated for who knows how many years. Even if most of it may not be suitable for Lin Jiu to take away, it is more suitable to add foundation to the Sun Empire. As a newly established empire, the weakest point of the Sun Empire is that the treasure house is empty.
"Then can we find the guy hiding in Narimajer and find the source of the abnormality from another clue?" Lin Jiu thought of this immediately, but he didn't plan to do it.
What he hates most is to find a target with little information in the vast crowd, which is a headache. And such a big Fiery Sun Sect is there, and there is no way to escape. For him, it feels easier to go to the Fiery Sun Sect.
In simple terms, one is to explore the mystery and decrypt the route, and the other is to solve the mystery with violence. The former requires less force, while the latter requires a combination of brain + force. If you choose the latter, there is also Leona as a "guide", so Lin Jiu has no reason not to choose.
[Hint: The hidden main task has covered the original main task. ]
[Hint: You can accept the side task·Moonlight Sacrifice. ]
[Side Task·Moonlight Sacrifice]
Difficulty level: Lv.45
Task information: Go to the hidden high platform altar in the old site of the Bright Moon Sect on the Giant God Peak to perform the Moonlight Sacrifice.
Mission deadline: 5 natural days.
Mission reward: The priest will receive the blessing of moonlight and awaken moonlight skills.
Mission penalty: forced execution.
…
This side quest was a complete surprise, and Lin Jiu took it up without hesitation. If someone else had triggered this side quest, the difficulty level would not be a decoration. But for Lin Jiu, he had a temporary ally like Diana.
Diana is the inheritor of the Lunari, and knows the old site of the Lunari, the secret altar, and the moonlight sacrifice ceremony. Unless Diana and Lin Jiu fall out, this side quest is not difficult at all.
This side quest can be regarded as a "compensation" for not being able to get the reward after the main quest is overwritten. In fact, this quest is equivalent to a prompt. Even if this quest is not triggered, Diana can take Isabella to hold the moonlight sacrifice ceremony to get the moonlight blessing and gain new abilities.
But in the case that Lin Jiu does not know about this, the probability of doing this is very small. The original main quest reward was a specific ability scroll, but now it has become an ability granted by the moonlight blessing, which is random, and the good or bad depends on luck.
After explaining some things to Nasus, Lin Jiu's team, Leona and Diana set off for Mount Targon. Diana and Leona, this pair of "good girlfriends" are not on good terms now.
Diana was connected, no longer obsessed with changing the Sun Cult, and destruction was fine, so the guilt she had felt at the beginning was long gone. Although Leona discovered the abnormality of the Sun Cult, she was still the patron saint of the Sun Cult, and Diana did kill many priests of the sect.
The two of them did not fight, which was a great favor to Lin Jiu. Now Lin Jiu has become the bond between the two. Sure enough, the triangle is the most stable.
The Targon Peak is on the west side of Narimaj, not far away, but not very close either. In Narimaj, you can see a high peak to the west, which is completely because the Targon Peak is too high.
However, to see the Targon Peak in Narimaj, you need good weather. After all, it is located in a desert environment. Whether it is wind and sand or sandstorms, they will affect the field of vision.
Lin Jiu and his group are all members of the seventh level. At their speed, they arrived at the foot of the Targon Peak in half a day, and this is because of the speed affected by the sandstorms and strange beasts that appear from time to time in the desert.
