"Could there be a special Magic Mechanism hidden on this giant gate?"
Seeing this scene, Linda's starry eyes widened, and she couldn't help but exclaim.
Everyone present was familiar with Magic Mechanisms, including Leo Ray, who had encountered them during his time in the Titan Clan Ruins.
Unlike Magic Restrictions that can be forcibly broken, a Magic Mechanism is a highly precise art, requiring a specific combination to be unlocked.
In other words, if Magic Restrictions are compared to a magical physical lock, then Magic Mechanisms are equivalent to a magical combination lock.
"Miss, this is indeed an ancient Magic Mechanism."
One of the Dragon Clan Tier 6 members pondered for a moment, responding: "But it is probably not an ordinary ancient mechanism, but a Magic Mechanism of Divine Favor!"
"Magic Mechanism of Divine Favor? Could it be a Magic Mechanism that only the extinct Chosen Son of God can open? No wonder we haven't discovered its secrets!"
In the past, to catch up with the knowledgeable , Linda, who also had considerable understanding of ancient knowledge, widened her starry eyes in disbelief: "Does this mean that this Ice System elder is actually a Chosen Son of God?"
After speaking, Linda couldn't help but look at Leo Ray again, filled with astonishment.
The title of Chosen Son of God is self-explanatory, meaning that this person has been chosen by a Deity, holding ancient powers and the Power of Divine Grace from before the Era of Blankness, making them comparable in status even to a Royal Family with supreme authority.
Nowadays, only the Shadow Market and a few mysterious Peak Powers possess such extraordinary beings, becoming esteemed guests at any Peak Power, rare to see even once in a thousand years, and unexpectedly appearing before her!
Even more unbelievable to Linda is the fact that this transcendent being, respected even in the Outer Region, is so deferential to a mere Emperor of the Human Race, which seems utterly unrealistic!
"No wonder there are rumors that this Emperor of the Human Race seems to control a wondrous Mobile City akin to the Land of Divine Favor; this makes sense now, but how has he earned such devotion from such powerful beings? Despite also being Human, the esteemed elder should not be this respectful."
While Linda was stunned and motionless, Broy, Shuert, and the Fairies' elder, among others, maintained a somewhat calm demeanor, having witnessed Ice Stone City's secrets firsthand, naturally aware of Elder Bing's identity.
A large grove appeared on the giant ancient portal before the crowd after a brief vibration, resembling a giant keyhole,
"Your Majesty, it seems this giant gate has dual protection, and even if the Magic Mechanism is cracked, the corresponding "Key" is still needed to open it."
Elder Bing observed from the air and quickly returned to Leo Ray, bowing with respect as he spoke.
"That "Key" surely lies with the culprit, so we still cannot open the gate?"
Compared to the composed , Linda was unmistakably more talkative, and she couldn't help but speak out again.
Upon hearing, Leo Ray first gestured to the talkative dragon and then glanced at Elder Bing, asking: "Old master, remember you once mentioned that among the Ten Thousand Clans of old, defenses employing the Power of Divine Grace, or those constructed by the Chosen Son of God, typically have backup measures in case the "Key" is lost. Does this gate also possess such a mechanism?"
"Your Majesty, that is precisely what I am about to discuss."
Elder Bing maintained his respectful posture, responding: "Typically, the backup measures require multiple Chosen Sons of God to inject the Power of Divine Grace simultaneously, since they are representatives of Deities, upstanding and unlikely to commit evil, lest they face severe divine punishment."
"And this ancient giant gate's backup opening measures require the participation of two Chosen Sons of God to unlock it."
Upon hearing Elder Bing's words, Linda, whose eyes were previously lit up, suddenly became listless, her face full of helplessness.
Keep in mind that just as she thought earlier, finding even one ancient Chosen Son of God in the vast Outer Region is a rare occurrence in a thousand years.
And now, needing two Chosen Sons of God to open the gate is clearly an impossible task.
She didn't believe that the Treants, Dwarf Elves, or Fairies, such Third-class forces, would have a Chosen Son of God, not to mention the insignificant Humans where the appearance of one would already be fortunate.
Not far from Linda, Broy, Shuert, and the Fairies elders all glanced at each other, their faces full of helpless expressions.
Returning and digging tunnels appeared to be the only option, despite the minimal chance of reaching the depths of the lair before the adversary is crowned.
While everyone was dropping their heads in despair, they saw Leo Ray and Elder Bing walking together toward the gate.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have no idea what's behind the door, so please do not let your guard down."
Leo Ray gestured for everyone to arrange into a Battle formation while he spoke.
"Your Majesty the Humans, if the gate won't open, what's the point of saying this?"
Linda pouted at Leo Ray, resigned: "And what are you doing standing there? At a time like this, stop trying to show off, alright?"
Hearing Linda's words, Leo Ray merely smiled faintly, no longer speaking, nodding at Elder Bing thereafter, moving together to place their palms flat against the surface of the ancient giant gate.
"Surely this Emperor of the Human Race doesn't believe he's a Chosen Son of God, right? It's laughable..."
Just as Linda thought this, two waves of sacred yet distinct Energy Waves surged forth, filling the ears of everyone present.
At the same time as the Energy Waves were triggered, the two giant dragon engravings on the ancient purple gate illuminated simultaneously, flashing with dazzling brilliance.
In the next moment, the entire gate trembled again and slowly opened, making the passage ahead wide open once more.
"This is..."
Upon seeing this, not only did Linda's fair and delicate face suddenly freeze, but even Broy, Konet, Shuert, and the Fairies elders, who had just formed a Battle formation, were all left with their mouths agape, hardly daring to believe their eyes.
Though they had entered the Ice Stone City and knew Elder Bing's identity, they had no idea Leo Ray himself was also a Chosen Son of God!
"This is unbelievable; who would've thought His Majesty of the Humans would also be such a transcendent being."
Broy instinctively swallowed, looking at Leo Ray with added respect in his eyes.
From fulfilling his promise, bringing unprecedented enhancement to the Dwarf Elves, to displaying today's transcendent power, every act exceeded the expectations of the Dwarf Elf King, redefining his worldview!
And Shuert and the Fairies elders all displayed similar expressions, gazing at Leo Ray uniformly, their minds only had one thought: that allying with the Humans was undoubtedly the most correct choice! The Humans under this young Emperor's leadership were probably no longer a fragile existence.
"Is he truly a Chosen Son of God?"
As for Linda, she was also expressionless, unsure how to react.
Only at this moment did she feel that she might somewhat understand why was willing to become the mount dragon of that Emperor of the Human Race.
"Now you see that gentleman's skills, right? You're really inexperienced."
intentionally came to Linda's side, casting her a proud glance.
"Hmph, maybe he just had a stroke of luck, it's nothing remarkable!"
Despite her astonishment, Linda's pride held, she raised her chin in defiance: "Even so, I would never bow my head like you."
Simultaneously, as the giant gate slowly opened, the sights inside the door unfolded before everyone.
