The Priest of God

Outside the God-Given City, more and more Trilobite Men gathered.

Everyone trembled as they watched the giant beasts in the ocean. The gaping maws of those monsters seemed poised to devour the sun in the sky.

Some even collapsed to the ground, their legs weakening from fright. They retreated by crawling on the sand, fleeing to the back of the crowd.

"What are these?"

"How can there be such enormous monsters?"

"What do these monsters want? They won't crawl ashore, will they?"

The King of Wisdom, Redlichia, also arrived at the shore, surrounded by his people. He became the backbone of the crowd.

As soon as he saw those terrifying giant creatures roaring at the sky, he immediately looked back at the highest point of the pyramid temple.

He knew these monsters must be mythical lives created by Yinsai. Although their forms were somewhat different, he recognized at a glance that these monsters possessed the power of the Fusion Monster Shelly.

The King of Wisdom raised his hand high, drawing the attention of all.

The people looked at this strong Trilobite Man wearing a crown. His every move could influence all Trilobite Men.

"Do not fear!"

"These monsters are God's servants."

As soon as Redlichia spoke, his voice resonated in everyone's minds. A strange power instantly quieted the restless and panicked crowd.

Hearing that these monsters were divine servants, they were no longer afraid. They looked at these Fusion Monsters from afar, marveling at the divine power.

Redlichia had his sons reassure all the subjects and forbid them from approaching those giant beasts.

Meanwhile, Redlichia hurriedly ran to the top of the pyramid temple and saw the divine being admiring his handiwork in front of the temple.

Yin Shen lowered his head, watching Redlichia ascend step by step.

Until he stopped and knelt before him.

"How is it?"

"Do you like it?"

Redlichia was stunned for a moment, not understanding the meaning of God's words.

Yin Shen continued, "This is the gift I bestow upon you!"

"With them, neither the deep sea nor land can obstruct your path."

"You want to establish a great civilization, don't you? Being trapped on this island can hardly be considered great."

Redlichia stared at God blankly. He hadn't expected God to bestow such a gift upon him.

God asked him, "You don't like it?"

Redlichia shook his head, tears streaming down his face.

"God!"

"Your firstborn will never forget this day."

But after considering for a moment, he added, "God!"

"May I give this opportunity to my son?"

Yin Shen's voice carried no emotion, "Only those with the power of wisdom can communicate with and control these Fusion Monsters. Mortals cannot command these mythical species."

Redlichia quickly said, "My son Yesael surely can. He has inherited my bloodline and talent."

The love Redlichia had for his son was evident.

"Bring him to see me tomorrow. I will bestow upon him the brand to command the Fusion Monsters."

Yin Shen had no objections. He granted these Fusion Monsters not only to help Redlichia fulfill his ideals but also to have the Trilobite Men raise these Fusion Monsters for him.

In the repeated cycles of death and rebirth, the transformation between embryos and life.

These Fusion Monsters would accumulate more and more mythical substance. One day, enough mythical substance would be born from them.

If not for the fact that creating Fusion Monsters required extracting and consuming Shelly's mythical blood, Yin Shen would have wanted to create a few more to achieve this goal sooner.

Yesael was still watching the spectacle of those monsters by the sea when he was called back to the palace of the King of Wisdom.

He saw the irrepressible joy in the eyes of his majestic father. Upon seeing him, his father couldn't wait to descend from the throne and place his hand on Yesael's shoulder.

His father looked at him with anticipation, a gaze that made him feel both burdened and joyful.

"Yesael!"

"Are you ready?"

"From tomorrow onward, you will become the priest of God!"

It was the first time Yesael heard this term. He looked puzzled.

"Priest?"

"What is that?"

Redlichia: "One who serves and attends to the divine, the agent of God on earth, the promulgator of the divine will."

"You will receive God's permission to select a Fusion Monster as your companion, becoming an extension of God's will in this world."

Yesael's eyes lit up upon hearing about the existence called Fusion Monsters.

"I am willing."

Yesael was too excited to sleep that night. He walked out of the palace and strolled along the high walls in exhilaration.

Under the moonlight, the entire God-Given City came into view. He gazed at the boundless horizon of the sea.

Clenching his fists.

"The sea and the land."

"I will conquer you."

He stood in front of the palace, looking at the ocean until dawn. Under his father's guidance, he ascended the temple.

This was his second time meeting God.

Like before, he didn't dare to look directly at that towering existence that transcended time and years. He humbly lowered his head below the altar, just as his father did.

The divine voice descended from above, asking him, "If you possess a Fusion Monster, what do you want to do?"

Yesael's excitement from yesterday, when he learned the news, had not dissipated. He kept his head lowered, displaying a pious attitude while speaking in a powerful and passionate tone.

"Great Yinsai!"

"If I may be granted the power of divine servants, I wish to explore the ocean on behalf of my father."

"I not only want to establish a new city in the depths of the sea, making it a new God-Given City, extending the glory of Yinsai into the ocean."

"I also want to find the legendary land at the end of the sea, letting the subjects of the God-Given City open up a new paradise there."

"As my wise father has said, we are the firstborn of God, the chosen rulers of land and sea."

"We will surely conquer the sea and eventually rule the land."

Yesael spoke with fervor, trembling uncontrollably. He felt his blood boiling.

He was different from Redlichia. Redlichia was conservative and humble at his core, while Yesael was full of adventure and impulse.

Redlichia listened to his son's words, his eyes brimming with pride.

"Yesael!"

"Do not disappoint your father's expectations."

The divine being placed a finger on Yesael's forehead. Light overflowed from the fingertip, forming an eye symbol on Yesael's forehead.

"From this day forward."

"It is yours."

Another voice echoed in Yesael's mind, a chaotic and frenzied consciousness connecting with him.

He sensed that on the other side of the ocean, a Fusion Monster's fate was now linked with his own.

In the Trilobite mythical text 《Hymn of the King of Wisdom》, it is recorded.

On this day, God established the second King of Wisdom, the inheritor of his will.

Yesael, the great son of Redlichia, became the first priest of the God-Given City, the spokesman of the divine.

The divine servant known as the priest appeared in this world.

They could control and nurture Fusion Monsters, these mythical species, allowing them to fuse with different species and possess various abilities.

Each of them possessed mythical power and the eyes to see through the hearts of others.
