Transcendent Dawn

Chapter 584: Chapter 0584: False God (Additional 3800, Seeking Monthly Tickets)

“Uncle… Are Zoterlan and Dylan fun?”

The night.

The shimmering sea surface reflects the glory of the silver moon in pieces.

Little Rolin lays on Su Lu’s thigh, her big eyes blinking with curiosity.

“Very fun… Have you read the ‘Izesuo Story Collection’?”

Su Lu lies on the soft chair, holding Little Rolin in his arms: “The little people and giants featured in it, actually live in the Zoterlan Continent. Besides them, there are also centaurs, jackal men, elves, and others…”

“Elves?”

Rolin immediately became interested: “Are those the beautiful older brothers and sisters with pointy ears?”

“Yes… They might look pretty, but they have quite fierce personalities… moreover, they are hidden in the depths of the Dark Continent. At least so far, in the vicinity of the present Zoterlan Colony, there are no reported sightings of elves…”

Su Lu chuckled: “Most common are the jackal men, centaurs, dwarfs, and some Henaga… Do you know what Henaga are? They are somewhat similar to the mythical mermaid, but they love war. They often attack ports and human ships… Your father has been tasked to fight them.”

“Daddy’s going to war?” Rolin had a bad feeling about this.

For her, war was a bad word.

Because of this ‘war’, she had had to leave the Downton Manor where she had always lived, and to leave her hometown.

“Yes, your father is assigned as the defending officer of Dylan Port.”

Su Lu gently patted her cheek with a soft smile: “Our little lady should go to sleep now, tonight your nanny can tell you the stories about little dwarfs in the ‘Izesuo Story Collection’, does that sound good?”

“Good!”

After coaxing Little Rolin to bed, Su Lu casually poured himself a glass of wine.

Rod managed to become the defending officer due to his secret efforts in the colony. It was not a result of his operation as a God, but rather as a fifth-level [Erosion Mage], that made the Kro family support him.

After all, he is just a commanding officer of a port, not the governor of the province.

Of course, Su Lu also casually traded off several pieces of what he thought were ‘junk’, but they turned out to be highly valued by Monahan.

In fact, if Antonio succeeds in becoming a God, all colonies on the Zoterlan Continent will merge to form a province, and according to the previous agreement, even the position of the governor could be pursued by Rod.

Even now, if Su Lu steps in, the royal family will be scared into agreeing right away.

However, he did not want this.

After all, ever since his last appearance, it is likely that Su Lu Pottery, a seventh-level professional, is already being talked about among the high churches and top-notch nobles.

At that time, Rod, his so-called elder brother, will be his only weakness. It would be better to maintain the identity of Mr. Downton in public.

Su Lu’s intent to take Rod’s family away from the New and Old Continents is also to avoid the whirlpool completely.

“Looking at the latest issue of the newspaper, the Caeser family has Nicholas, a sixth-level figure, in charge of several demigods. In this case where other incarnate gods do not make their move, they can still hold on. After all, the Caeser family has ruled for so many years, they have a justifiable name… and the churches may not be united internally, at the end of the day, a weakened Caeser family in power is much better than instigating a full-scale war… Therefore, Rod’s appointment has been approved by the new emperor.”

“However, the empire is currently plagued with internal and external troubles, and inevitably they will have to respond to the challenge from the White Eagle Federation…”

Hitherto, the empire was so wealthy, but now they’re at a disadvantage.

Su Lu’s attitude was just to stay neutral, anyway, regardless of who wins, it doesn’t concern him.

As a divine spirit, he has this kind of stability.

Of course, since the empire is not planning to send reinforcements, but rather has plans for a retreat, Rod’s appointment as the defending officer is quite miserable, he isn’t even entitled to a warship for an escort.

Conversely, apart from his appointment letter, he is bringing a command of retreat.

However, in response, the withdrawn forces from the central government mean that surveillance will also relax, it is a situation of gaining some and losing some, and consequently, the power in Rod’s hands has expanded in response.

Now, remember, the White Eagle Federation used to be a colony of the empire in the New Continent as well.

“Speaking of which, Antonio has already promised me preaching rights. I can establish a church openly and without fear… but… let’s not… from the beginning, don’t be too provocative towards the sensitive and fragile hearts of the seven churches, let’s lay low and just establish an organization.”

Su Lu thought about the situation in the Dark Continent.

The infinitely vast land was full of various strange ethnic groups, werewolves, blood tribes, Henaga, elves… Even rumors suggesting the presence of legendary creatures like giant dragons.

Even during the Twilight of the Gods, a certain ‘mystery’ spread among their tribes, and now it is even more astonishing.

However, none of these mattered to Su Lu.

What truly deserved his serious consideration were some local ‘false gods’.

They can either be natural spirits like the ‘Arcane Spirit’, or the remaining obsessions of powerful beings who have died, or they could simply be strange evil spirits.

Due to the widespread reverence of the aboriginals, they formed totems, and now, they generally have the strength of around fifth or sixth levels and serve as the final trump card of the major tribes.

In among them, there are some that have reached the threshold of becoming a god, and even some are ‘side accounts’ disguised as false gods.

Let alone others, Su Lu knew that the true body of Shewinado is hidden in the Dark Continent.

However, it is unlikely to be on the outermost part of the Zoterlan continent, he must be lurking deeper within.

“Shewinado, Totem false god, Transcendent species, colonies… It’s quite a chaotic situation. However, it provides a suitable environment to establish a prototype church organization. What should I call it?”

Su Lu pondered, seeing Rod coming out, he laughed and threw him a bottle of red wine: “Is Rolin asleep?”

“Hmm, she’s already asleep.”

After taking the wine bottle, Rod took a sip and frowned: “Although the nobles all appreciate the mellow grape wine, why drink this on the sea? Bring on the rum!”

“Haha…”

Su Lu comfortably stretched his arms, breathed in the sea wind, and looked out to the distant sea surface, exclaiming: “Tonight is really lively…”

“Did you notice something?”

Rod’s expression became serious in an instant, knowing that Su Lu wouldn’t comment for no reason.

“Well… there’s a group of pirates, if both sides maintain this speed, we’ll encounter each other in half an hour…”

Su Lu nodded and directly mentioned the information he saw: “This will be your responsibility, according to the imperial law, in this situation, you as the senior-most officer have to step in, take command of the whole ship, and prepare for battle!”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“Don’t we have you?”

Rod rolled his eyes: “Unless other gods come down, who can rob this ship?”
