483 Chapter 362: Glorious Divine Artifact-Wishing Scales

“The heart of a god?”

Richard looked at the white-haired-old man whose one eye was black-patched and said,

“Mr. Peim, do you have some misunderstanding about my strength?”

Peim stood up shakily. His blue eyes looked straight at him.

A moment later, he suddenly burst into laughter.

“The grace mainland overlords are a bunch of lunatics who don’t fear the gods, as expected.

“I asked you to help me find the heart of a god, but you declined because you were worried that you were not strong enough… It’s not out of respect for the gods.

“I can’t see any fear of the gods in your eyes.

“I like your attitude…”

The words startled Richard. This guy was unpredictable.

He shrugged.

“So, what do you want to express, Mr. Peim?”

The white-haired-old man’s face revealed a subtle expression.

“I need you to go to a temple and retract the god’s heart sealed inside.

“A prerequisite to entering the temple–you must be a non-believer of god.”

Richard’s eyes narrowed.

‘Was the other party for real?’

“Mr. Peim… A temple sealed a god’s heart. Are you sure I can enter it?”

‘The exploration level of this temple would probably be extremely high if what the other party said was a lie.

‘Gods, the masters of the rules of the “Shining Era” the end of everything.

‘What kind of terrifying power did their hearts possess?

‘And to what extent would the place that sealed the heart be?’

The white-haired-old man shook his head.

“Of course, you can. In fact, due to special restrictions, only the god lord can enter.”

Richard’s eyes brightened. ‘A special dungeon?’

The other party didn’t stop.

“Before you, 20 were already grace mainland overlords. You can rest assured…”

“A player had accepted this mission?

“Where are they?”

The white-haired-old man shrugged.

“Who knows? I didn’t see anyone return.”

Richard’s eyes twitched.

“None of them returned?”

It was an old scammer.

Peim said as he looked at him with a kind look.

“Don’t worry. There shouldn’t be any great danger inside. You can handle it knowing your strength.”

“Didn’t you say the same thing to the 20 or so players who didn’t return?”

Richard’s mouth twitched.

He slowly said after he pondered.

“Mr. Peim, I need to confirm the enemy level in the temple.

“Also, I need to get the Contract Scroll first.”

Peim immediately straightened his neck, stared at the single eye, and shouted.

“You brat! You’re daydreaming! Who would give the reward first?! I can only reward you if you bring god’s heart back!”

“Mr. Peim, do you also know that you’re daydreaming?”

“You don’t have to pay anything, yet you want me to explore a terrifying place with a sealed god’s heart.

“After I get some benefits, I’ll return, and you take the vast share…

“There’s no such good thing in the world, right?”

The two sides stared at each other, and neither gave in.

“The ‘Shining Era’ was full of danger. You would die if you met a ruthless character.

“However, if I could obtain a Contract Scroll and subdue the Grand Duke, it would be a different story.”

Peim stared at Richard for a while. He suddenly relaxed and laid back down on the mechanical chair.

He looked at Richard in amazement.

“Kid, you’re the first one who dared to talk back to me. No wonder you stood out from the grace mainland overlords.

“The previous grace mainland overlords didn’t dare to say anything more than I said… A typical good-for-nothing snack.

“You’re pretty good.”

Richard was left speechless.

He wondered if the players this white-haired-old man tricked to death would turn into undead to kill him after they heard this evaluation.

Richard calmed himself. Then he said,

“Mr. Peim, may I know what you are looking for the heart of a god for?”

This question made the white-haired-old man subconsciously cover his chest.

Then, he grinned and said.

“It’s nothing. I’m just missing a heart.”

Richard didn’t smile, though. His face was solemn.

“Mr. Peim, are you serious?”

This white-haired-old man gave him a strange feeling. He couldn’t figure out what the white-haired-old man was up to.

Peim laughed and slowly took off his black shirt in front of him.

He didn’t know what the material of the shirt was. But it split open like an eraser when he pulled it from left to right.

The scene gave off a hooligan-like feeling with Rebecca around.

However, the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

Richard and Rebecca could see a fist-sized hole in the white-haired-old man’s chest.

The heart that should have existed had disappeared without a trace.

Only the blood-red muscles wriggled slowly. This scene gave a strong psychological impact.

This one-eyed white-haired-old man didn’t have a heart!

Richard’s heart trembled.

He couldn’t suppress the emotions in his heart even though he took a few deep breaths.

Solemness immersed his eyes when he looked at the white-haired-old man again.

He couldn’t imagine what kind of strength was needed to survive after losing a heart…

And it was even level 3!

The white-haired-old man had probably lived for a long time while he looked at the condition of the general store.

It also shocked Rebecca.

She could sense that the white-haired-old man was an ordinary human, not a race like the undead that could survive after one removed their heads.

An ordinary human being could still live without a heart… As the eldest daughter of the Grand Duke Frostwolf, she had seen countless strange things, but she had never seen such a scene.

Peim looked at the two shocked people and laughed. He looked like a child showing off his toy to his friends.

Then, he wiped his clothes, and the tear returned to usual as if nothing had happened.

Richard lowered his voice after he returned to his senses.

“Mr. Peim, can you tell me the reason behind this?”

“There’s no special reason.”

Peim said slowly.

I fought with a red dragon, and it dug out my heart… However, I didn’t suffer any losses either. I cut off the head of that red dragon.”

Richard suddenly remembered the name of the shop. Red Dragon General Store… It was related to the red dragon.

“Ordinary hearts are useless to me. Only the heart of a god with endless power can help me recover…”

Peim gave Richard a meaningful look.

“The strongest lord among the grace mainland overlords… Lord Qingqiu, since you could get Windsor to recommend you, I’m sure you won’t let me down.”

Richard took a deep breath.

“Mr. Peim, you haven’t told me the level of the enemies in the temple.”

Peim spread his hands like a bachelor.

“I’ve never been in there. How would I know?”

Richard looked at the white-haired-old man who asked for a beating and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

It was hard for him to feel any respect for the white-haired-old man even if the other party had a prodigious background.

“How did you know the sealed god’s heart is inside?”

“An ancient secret.”

“Then I still have the same request. We need the Contract Scroll first, or we can’t complete this mission.

Richard’s stubbornness annoyed Peim.

“I can only give you the Contract Scroll after you have obtained the god’s heart…”

The white-haired-old man disgruntledly waved his hand when he saw Richard was about to say something.

The next moment, the space suddenly twisted.

Under his gaze, a silver-white scale that emitted holy light slowly appeared and floated in the air.

The moment the scale appeared, the world seemed to lose its light.

Only the balance would always exist.

There was a small tray on each side of the silver-white scale. One tied each with thin chains.

On one end of the tray were pure white feathers. While the other was empty.

One could see the pride in Peim’s eyes.

“Young man, I can give you anything you want, let alone a Contract Scroll!”

Richard set aside his bewilderment and opened the attribute panel of the scale.

However, his breathing immediately quickened with just a glance.

[Wishing Scale]

[Level: Glorious Divine Artifact]

[Special Property: After making a wish in your heart, place an item of equivalent value on the other end of the wishing scale. The wishing scale will fulfill your wish.]

[Restrictions: 1. One must place an item of equal value with every wish. It will not fulfill the wish, if the value is not high enough.]

[2. Cooldown Time: 3 months.]

[Description: A divine artifact created by the first god of wishes. It was initially meant to create the wishing scales, which did not require payment. However, due to the constraints of rules, it was not perfected. Even so, it still possesses incredible power.]

Shocked immersed Richard’s eyes.

Although he could tell that this scale was extraordinary from its appearance, he never would have thought that this thing was powerful to this extent!

‘Glorious divine artifact!

‘This was too f*cking overboard!’

Peim sighed when he saw the shock in Richard’s eyes.

“Your grace mainland power can know the origin of treasures. What an enviable talent.”

He said proudly.

“You don’t doubt me anymore, do you?

“With the wishing scales, you can get whatever treasure you want!”

Richard said after some thought.

“Since you have the wishing scales, why don’t you just exchange the heart of god for it, Mr. Peim?”

The question sparingly embarrassed Peim’s face. The embarrassment angered him after he stammered for a moment.

“What does a little kid know?! How many treasures would it take to exchange for a god’s heart? Who can afford that?”

“I’ve spent more than half of my savings to exchange for information on the location of the god’s heart…”

Richard finally understood.

So the information about the god’s heart was also obtained through the wishing scale.

It seemed that the function of this glorious divine artifact was more operational than what was introduced.

Richard’s eyes burned with desire.

He could enslave the Grand Duke of vampires in no time with this glorious divine artifact.

He could even learn how to use the plane stones and the seed of the world tree.

However, his happiness did not last long before his face suddenly stiffened.

This divine artifact was indeed powerful, but its biggest weakness was that it required a treasure of equal value to make a wish.

This was a little too much, the wishing scales… It would be better to call it the exchange scales.

By the way, could he make some strange wishes?

And what level of treasure would it take to get a Contract Scroll from the wishing scale that could enslave extraordinary beings?

When he thought of this headache-inducing question, he immediately looked at Peim.
