Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high! Chapter 831: 598 The First Shrine2

"Blackwater City, Bai E, the City Lord!"

"Who is it that reversed the collapsing tide and supported the crumbling edifice?! With the strength of one, they annihilated the entire insect army that attacked our Eternal Night City?!"

"Blackwater City, Bai E, the City Lord!"

The cheers grew louder and louder.

In the monts after everything settled, Bai E's na and origin spread throughout the city of Blackwater City from every mouth.

"So, do you think we should do sothing for City Lord Bai E?!"

"Do sothing!"

"Build a shrine!"

"Erect a statue!"

"Every citizen of Eternal Night City should forever rember this human hero who saved us!"

"Build a shrine! Erect a statue!"

"Build a shrine! Erect a statue!"

The voices echoed everywhere, shaking the entire city.

This commotion undoubtedly deeply touched every person's heart.

After everything was settled, all the high officials of Eternal Night City gathered in the conference room.

"The spirit of those residents is a bit frightening..." soone murmured softly.

Feeling the fanatical atmosphere in the city, many officials of Eternal Night City instinctively felt a sense of panic. For any ruler, having such a fanatical mindset among the governed usually ans sothing significant is about to happen.

But this ti... even if sothing significant happens, they accepted it!

One officer suddenly stood up, his voice resonant, "What's so frightening?! I agree with their actions!"

Another officer suddenly stood up, "I also agree with their actions!"

"Build a shrine! Erect a statue!"

"Build a shrine! Erect a statue!"

When all eyes turned to him, the City Lord of Eternal Night City smiled helplessly, "Aren't you all just forcing ?"

Then the City Lord suddenly stood up, gritting his teeth fiercely, "Build a shrine! Erect a statue! Damn it, I wanted to do it long ago! If it weren't for City Lord Bai E, all of us sitting here would be considered criminals of Eternal Night City! If we t our predecessors in high-dinsional space, we wouldn't have the face to et them! City Lord Bai E saved our entire city; if the whole city belonged to him, so what?! If he had wanted it, you would have pressed to make him the real 'City Lord' of Eternal Night!"

On the words "City Lord," the City Lord of Eternal Night City put extra emphasis.

The officials were astonished, "City Lord, you..."

"Has the City Lord privately approached Mr. Bai?"

"Actually, I thought the sa, but didn't expect Mr. Bai..."

"For the first ti, you have a bit of self-awareness as a City Lord..."

"That last sentence can be left unsaid." The City Lord of Eternal Night City waved his hand lazily, "Unfortunately, City Lord Bai E is unwilling. So, we must mutually accommodate in the future. The current matter, I suppose, is unanimously passed?"

Saying this, the City Lord of Eternal Night City led the way out into the bustling city, joining the human torrent, shouting loudly together—

"Build a shrine! Erect a statue!"

"Build a shrine! Erect a statue!"

The sound was earth-shattering, so much so that the Vanguard Squad of the Imperial Capital, needing rest after the toughest battles, couldn't help but wake from extre fatigue.

In the dark room, the deputy captain of the Vanguard Squad quietly reminded Ares, "At this rate, the reputation of our Imperial Capital might not be as good as Blackwater City..."

As the deputy captain of the Vanguard Squad, he had carried an absolute responsibility before heading out.

Attracting qualified followers for the Imperial Capital was his greatest mission.

For the alliance to function, it must be filled with its voices.

This has nothing to do with ambition.

To get things done, it's the only way.

An alliance full of voices equals no voice.

A loose sand pile, what can it accomplish?

But now...

"No worries." Ares waved his hand, laughing heartily, "If it cos to it, I'll put a knife to our City Lord's neck, forcing him to abdicate for Mr. Bai."

As long as Mr. Bai becos part of the Imperial Capital, wouldn't the prestige still belong to the Imperial Capital?

After all, these so-called voices have always been centered around City Lord Bai E. If it's this City Lord Bai E who takes power, Ares feels whether or not the Imperial Capital claims this prestige seems trivial.

"Whatever you say." The deputy captain sighed softly, "Honestly, I just wanted to remind you. The thought of having to compete with that man makes it seem unrealistic."

The deputy captain smiled wryly.

Who can contend with soone who can single-handedly annihilate an entire insect army?

As for what the Imperial Capital thinks... who cares!

His responsibility was rely to provide Ares with so advice; the final decision ultimately lies with Ares.

He was open and cheerful, but not without wit.

Since Ares didn't care, why should he worry?

Might as well... let go and join this wave of celebration!

For the first ti, a statue pavilion honoring "Bai E" as a god officially appeared on this planet.

["Lucky Strike" charge 50.]

[You are being eroded by a form of faith, high-dinsional characteristics deepening...]

[You are being eroded by a form of faith, high-dinsional characteristics deepening...]

...

Lines of dense ssages flashed across the panel in front of Bai E.

After being stunned for a long while, Bai E chose to fold the ssages, waving to close the pale blue panel.

'Damn, have I beco a god?'

Of course, the gods in the eyes of ordinary people are far from being real deities.

But regardless, the fact that others' faith can deepen the traits of high-dinsional space is a brand new discovery.

If... soaked in such faith for too long, will he one day truly beco another "god" in high-dinsional space?

The key is those gods... they don't seem to be that powerful?

Moreover, from what he currently understands, those so-called gods are essentially manifestations of certain high-dinsional space rules.

If he becos one of them, what kind of authority would he hold?

Or would he beco a lesser "demon" than those gods?

Or so other type of post-natal high-dinsional being other than those demons?

He did not know, nor could he figure it out.

High-dinsional space remains a mystery to humans.

What's more, this so-called faith erosion, at least so far, hasn't resulted in any substantial changes to himself.

Even if it transforms him into sothing closely related to high-dinsional space, perhaps it would need to be asured in "years."

So far off, why worry now.

Shaking his head, Bai E brushed aside these thoughts.

His mind drifted, longing to fly back to Blackwater City now.

Calculating with his fingers, it had been over half a month since he ca out, and he had no idea what had happened in the city.

Having a team from the imperial capital deliver the ssage back, he wondered if it had been delivered.

And whether those city aristocrats who received the ssage followed his instructions, obediently focusing their energy on other cities, rather than extracting the limited wealth from his city.

After spending a regular half-day for so-called recuperation, Bai E proposed his need to return to both those who ca from the imperial capital and the officials of Eternal Night City.

"Since matters here are settled, it's ti for to go back. Being out for so long, who knows what troubles might have arisen in my city."

Bai E's request could undoubtedly be fully implented, but regardless of whether they were from the imperial capital like Ares or the high officials of Eternal Night City, they all had expressions of reluctance during farewells.

With their faces filled with bitter sorrow, they all appeared almost tearful.

"Safe travels, Mr. Bai." The City Lord of Eternal Night City tightly clasped Bai E's hands, "Visit often... I represent the people of Eternal Night City, welcoming Mr. Bai to co and guide us at any ti!"

Ares solemnly brought up important matters, "The list you wanted has been made and will be sent to you first thing! Speaking of which, the plan to recapture those signal relay stations should also be put on the agenda, otherwise, communicating this way is too inefficient."
