It wasn't until Phoenix returned to report that Negris suddenly slapped his lower back and exclaimed in realization:
"I knew it! Why did you insist on having it impersonate King Felie to complete the mission? Back in the Boundless Void, the Ancient Mantis already saw the old codger impersonating King Felie. Using that name again now would expose the old codger, wouldn't it? So you already knew it had seen through the old codger's identity. How did you know?"
Anthony smiled calmly: "Just a guess."
"Guess? How did you guess?" Negris asked in astonishment.
“If King Phile were dead, then impersonating him would be foolproof. But we later learned that King Phile was not dead and had even become the Lord of the Stars. How could the Guman Snake not know of the existence of such a powerful being?” Anthony asked.
Negris nodded: "Indeed, I would pay more attention. When I was still a dragon, if another powerful magical beast came to my territory, I would also pay close attention to it. But the problem is, what if? What if it really doesn't know of King Phile's existence? After all, the other party is hiding, wouldn't that be the same as exposing the old man?"
"You've been exposed, so what?" Anthony asked, shrugging.
"And then...and then...and then everything was fine..." Now that things have come to this stage, so what if the old man's identity has been exposed?
No, but Negris always felt that revealing his identity so easily was like throwing away a bargaining chip, in case he needed it later.
“Need to use it? Let Phoenix go. He now represents King Phile.” Anthony laughed.
After the joke was over, Anthony began to explain seriously: "Some things can't be left unclear. As soon as I found out that King Phile was not dead, I began to suspect that the Kuman Snake knew that we were impersonating him. If we couldn't be sure of this, we would definitely be held back when making plans in the future. So I simply stirred things up and changed my identity, which allowed me to find out a lot of things."
"What did you find out?" Negris asked.
“The Guman Snake not only knows about King Phile, but also about the Ghost Tree and the Dragon People. It knows everything. I suddenly understand why Kadiz, the Shadow of God, always pulls us into the shadows during our daily conversations,” Anthony said.
"Huh? Kadiz was guarding against it? Then we said a lot of things there, could it have overheard everything?" Negris was startled.
Anthony shook his head: "This is just my guess, but since the master hasn't reacted, I trust the master's perception more. If the master hasn't reacted, then everything is fine."
Ang is the foundation of their team. As their representative, Anthony trusts the power of God even more, believing that God is omnipotent.
Just as we were talking about Ang, there was some activity on Ang's end. He had finally finished checking all the Star Flames he had brought back and took them out of the Star Flame Crystal.
“Let’s go see how the adults are dealing with those Starfires. Ten Starfires are more than ten Wheatbergs combined,” Anthony said.
It has to be said that ten units of Starfire are very tempting. The Maibao Imprint has been around for so long, but its main body has remained motionless, lying on the molten fire absorbing Starfire, and has only managed to accumulate a fraction of a unit.
In order to destroy them, the Guman Snake took out ten units of energy in one go, equivalent to the total amount of fourteen Wheatbergs. Once it digested these Star Flames, it would soon become a Star Flame Giant that was fourteen times stronger than a Wheatberg.
Upon arriving at Ang's location, one could see him taking out the Star Flames one by one from the Star Flame Crystals, first guiding them to the main body of the Azure God Star, circling it once, and then bringing them back.
"Ang, what are you doing? Why do you want Old Star to absorb it first?" Negris asked, puzzled.
“There’s the scent of an outsider,” Ang replied.
"The scent of an outsider?" Negris instinctively sniffed the air, then realized he had no sense of smell and asked, "Whose scent? The scent of a giant serpent?"
“It’s for restraining the little fire spirits and the ancient manta ray,” Ang said.
Negris glanced at the starfire in Ang's hand, then at the Azure God Star's true form, and shook his head. Since he couldn't discern any aura from either, he simply asked, "Aren't they all starfire? What would happen if you got their aura on you?"
“She’s approachable,” Ang said.
“Uh, you mean these starfires will be controlled by them, just like the magic they’ve been blessed with?” Negris asked.
What you haven't been affinityd with is called elemental, what you've been affinityd with is called magic, and the ability to be affinityd with them is called mental power. These are concepts in the magic system. Ang took it and applied it to Starfire, and Negris immediately understood.
"The molten fire of that divine star is considered an element that has never been compatible with it. The little fireman is equivalent to an elemental god; it is the element itself. The restricted little fireman is the same. So it was captured by the ancient manta ray and used as an elemental source?"
For ordinary people who want to become magicians, the most important thing is to cultivate their mental strength. With strong mental strength, they can resonate with the elements, thereby making the resonating elements closer to them and creating affinity.
These compatible elements attach themselves to their bodies and can be used at any time; this is called magic.
A mage's combat strength can be measured by their magic power, but a mage's level is measured by their mental strength.
The ability to resonate with the elements is called talent. Some people resonate easily with the fire element, so they have fire talent. They resonate more easily with the water element, so they naturally have water talent.
However, regardless of the talent one possesses, mental strength can bridge these gaps, which is why necromancers with strong mental strength are often proficient in all elemental magic.
If we apply a magic system, then the planet Godstar is a huge source of magic, the Fireman is the god of elements, Geb and Mab are elemental creatures, the Starborn are the children of elements, and the Tree of All Worlds is an elemental plant that grows by relying on the elemental source, just like the dragon fruit growing on the edge of a volcano.
"So, by now turning these starfires around Old Star, aren't you stripping him of his life force?" Negris asked.
When a low-level mage faces a high-level mage, they are often helpless and can only wait to die, because the high-level mage can deprive the low-level mage of control over the elements.
Ang thought for a moment and nodded. Although there were some differences, it wasn't wrong to use this analogy. He hadn't expected that just by saying "affinity," Negris would put Starfire into the magic system. These were completely different things, because Starfire had another crucial characteristic—increase.
Eight equivalents of starfire circled the Azure God Star once. Ang took five of them, leaving the remaining three for the Azure God Star.
Azure God Star looked at the three equivalent star flames with some surprise, as these were all star flames with increased power. Finally, he said regretfully, "I don't need them for the time being."
Ang put them away, and then gave one of the remaining two equivalents of Starfire to the Little Fireman and the other to the Little Treeman.
The little tree-man, holding Star Flame, looked somewhat bewildered: "Huh..."
"Send it in." Ang pointed in the direction of the Myriad Realms Divine Tree, meaning to send it in to the forbidden little fireman.
