The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor

Chapter 309 - 270: The Whereabouts of the Divine Artifacts, Reunion

If it weren’t for Natasha’s introduction, Lynn wouldn’t have known that the Saint Emperor’s Armor had such a significant origin.

The initial version of this eight-piece set was actually forged by the Eight Great Ancient Gods. Now, even the weakest among them must be a Main God, let alone this set being reforged by the Light God after ascending to become a Divine King. If Miracle World didn’t limit powers above level 999, any component of the Saint Emperor’s Armor might not be any less than a Main Divine Artifact, and when combined, it could very well be a Supreme Divine Artifact.

"Do you know where these eight... these remaining five Saint Emperor’s Divine Artifacts are?"

Knowing the origin of the Saint Emperor’s Armor, Lynn was truly eager. He had a subtle feeling that the effect of assembling the Saint Emperor’s Armor might be even more formidable than the Demon Emperor’s Armor; otherwise, the Light God King wouldn’t rely on it to resist the invasion of the Demon Race.

"Well... Lord Lynn, you seem to have the Holy Emperor Sword Armor that went missing years ago, right? And with the Saint Emperor’s Ring, the family heirloom of the Windsor Clan that Cleia just sent, you’re only missing the crown, necklace, bracelet, belt, and boots."

"I know the Saint Emperor’s Crown has been safeguarded by the Popes of Light over generations, passed down one by one, and is now with His Majesty Akelie."

"The Saint Emperor’s Chain was originally nurtured close to the heart by each generation’s Saintess of Light, in their pure, flawless bodies. But the current Saintess of Light is quite unconventional. I reckon her father wouldn’t trust her with such a treasure, so it’s likely with His Majesty Akelie as well."

"The last sighting of the Saint Emperor’s Bracelet was in the Giant Dragon Empire. The Dragon Race has a tendency to hoard treasures, but for a divine treasure of this level, it should be in the hands of the Dragon Emperor’s lineage unless there are surprises."

"As for the belt, it’s in the hands of an old noble of the Light Empire. What Cleia mentioned they’re negotiating is indeed this component. It’s the most openly known among all the Saint Emperor’s Divine Artifacts. Everyone on the Divine Protection Continent knows the Saint Emperor’s Belt is with his family because every generation of the Grand Duke would occasionally show it off. It’s just that this divine artifact can’t be worn by anyone else, or it would’ve been seized already."

"As for the Saint Emperor’s Boots, they are probably the hardest to find, having been lost on the Divine Protection Continent during the continental shift. Many years have passed now. Given the vastness of the Divine Protection Continent, finding them would be like finding a needle in a river."

It’s no wonder Natasha, being from the Dragon Race, is so attentive to treasures. She knows approximately where all the missing pieces of the Saint Emperor’s Divine Artifacts are, except for the boots, which makes Lynn’s quest to complete the Saint Emperor’s Armor much easier without much preliminary preparation.

"So, the crown and necklace are the easiest to get. Since they’re both with Akelie, I can just ask him for them. He shouldn’t possibly refuse, right?"

"The belt and bracelet, one is with an old noble, the other probably with the Dragon Emperor. It might take some effort, but as long as the price is right, they shouldn’t be unwilling to part with divine artifacts they can’t use, nor can their descendants wield, right?"

Lynn continued without mentioning the Saint Emperor’s Boots lost on the Divine Protection Continent. Since it’s missing, pondering over it is useless. Anyway, once they conquer the Divine Protection Continent, he could order the people of the Divine Protection Continent to turn it upside down. As long as the reward is high enough, no one would hide a divine artifact that can’t be worn.

"Should I contact the Giant Dragon Empire to ask His Majesty the Dragon Emperor to send over the Saint Emperor’s Bracelet? My grandfather has some influence in the Dragon Race and can talk to His Majesty the Dragon Emperor."

Seeing Lynn’s keen interest in assembling the Saint Emperor’s Armor, Natasha eagerly wanted to help.

Although the Saint Emperor’s Divine Artifacts were never put to use after being forged and gradually scattered over time, they became ownerless. Anyone who finds them gets to keep them.

But times have changed. There’s now someone truly anointed as the Miracle Saint Emperor by the gods, who genuinely possesses level 999 strength and can indeed wear the Saint Emperor’s Divine Artifact Set.

According to the original intent of the Light God King when reforging the Eight Ancient Divine Artifacts, this eight-piece Saint Emperor’s Divine Artifact Set should belong to the true Miracle Saint Emperor.

When there was no Miracle Saint Emperor, the holders of these Saint Emperor’s Divine Artifacts were merely temporary custodians. Now that the Miracle Saint Emperor has appeared, shouldn’t these artifacts be handed over?

After all, these divine artifacts are truly exclusive. If no one but Lord Lynn can use them, rather than for display, why not further enhance Lord Lynn’s power?

"Perhaps I should contact them myself; the Dragon Emperor might owe me a little face?"

Lynn hadn’t been involved in the Giant Dragon Empire for long, nor did he have any ties with the current Dragon Emperor. But surely, the Light Divine Envoy would grant some face, especially as Lynn never intended for the Dragon Emperor to surrender the divine artifact for nothing.

Isn’t there already a banner, a certificate, and five hundred... I mean, something very suitable for the Dragon Emperor?

"Of course, your esteemed face is significant enough that once you contact His Majesty the Dragon Emperor, the artifact will be delivered within a day. Nevertheless, as a member of the Dragon Race related to such matters, I feel somewhat incompetent for not being able to help at all. It makes me feel useless."

Natasha mumbled a little forlornly, realizing that as Lynn’s wife, Xiya easily sent an elder sister who was the Elf Queen to assist, while she couldn’t even help pass a message. Truly, besides her two exceptional riding styles, she felt she had no other usefulness.
