Chapter 4882: The Shock and Fear of the People at Tongfu Inn

Dr. Roman: "!!! Ah, I, of course I can.

Um... sorry, I'm too excited right now!"

Wudao Dong Xiang: "...... Terrifying, give me back that... cold and powerful King of Israel in my mind.

*covers face*

"

Kayaba Akihiko: "You went looking for the King of Israeli Fist, what does that have to do with me, Dr. Roman *serious face*.

"

Hijikata Toshirow: "Logical and well-grounded, truly convincing."

Su Han did not speak within the guild.

Seeing that the other two participants in the mission had no objections, he shrugged and clicked to formally join the mission in his mind.

The next instant, a brilliant radiance swirled around Su Han's body; when the light faded, Su Han's figure vanished along with it.

...... Wu Lin Outer Legends world, Tongfu Inn.

Lv Xiucai tapped his abacus while glancing at Bai Zhantang, who sat by the door, and rambled on, "Sigh, these days are tough.

Grain prices and meat prices have risen way too much... and lately the guests staying with us have dropped way, way down compared to before."

"Right now we're basically... eating through our savings... at this rate, our Tongfu Inn probably won't last half a year before going under."

"...... What half a year!"

Tong Xiangyu, sitting at the middle table, refuted him sternly, "Look at the weather outside, this rain it's pouring down, blood-red! A sign of a dynasty about to fall... probably a change of dynasty is coming.

I only hope that if war truly breaks out in the future, it doesn't spread to our Seven Heroes Town... otherwise it really would be terrible."

"It's fine, it's fine, we've got martial arts masters on our side."

Guo Furong paused briefly, then sighed, "Sigh, it's so inexplicable... how did things end up like this?"

"Probably because the Son of Heaven did something that angered the heavens!"

Li Dazui spoke listlessly.

Bai Zhantang opened his mouth, then in the end just gave a bitter smile and said nothing.

Having been in the Jiarugong Society for a long time... Bai Zhantang had even seen the existence of immortals and gods within it, and learned much knowledge of the future... his values had already aligned with the masses of the guild, departing from those of an ancient man.

Precisely because of this, Bai Zhantang understood clearly in his heart that the weather change actually had nothing much to do with the Son of Heaven... of course, though he said this, Bai Zhantang didn't have much particular fondness for or loyalty to the Son of Heaven either, so if everyone at Tongfu Inn wanted to slander, then let them slander.

Suddenly, a brilliant radiance abruptly rose up from beside Bai Zhantang.

"...... Who is it?"

Guo Furong, who had been slumped over the table half-dead, changed drastically in expression; with a whoosh she stood on the table in the center of the hall and drew the sword at her waist.

Although she was far from being some great martial arts hero... after all, her family heritage was profound, and her strength and breadth of vision were not to be underestimated.

Everyone present looked toward Bai Zhantang, and then saw three figures coalesce slowly from nothing into form.

Standing at the very front was Su Han.

"...... Oh my goodness, how can someone like this exist in this world?"

Tong Xiangyu didn't even have time to wonder how Su Han and the others could appear out of thin air; her eyes went wide.

Su Han's features were simply too perfect, and combined with his own... transcendent temperament, they formed an almost bewitching charm.

"Right! Someone like this can't exist in this world... wait... could it be that......"

Lv Xiucai suddenly thought of something, his legs went weak with fright, and he dropped straight onto the bench, his thighs trembling, "D-demon lord, please don't eat me! My meat is sour and stinky, not tasty at all."

Su Han's eyelid twitched several times, feeling a bit speechless inside.

After a brief silence, Alucard surveyed the people of Tongfu Inn with interest, then looked toward Su Han, "Mr. President, being mistaken for a demon or monster by others... what are your thoughts?"

"Nothing much."

Su Han was concise; Kenbunshoku Haki let him see clearly the inner thoughts of everyone present, so he knew these people were truly frightened, not maliciously slandering him.

"...... Um... everyone! How can you talk nonsense like that?"

Su Han was calm, but Bai Zhantang, who knew Su Han's identity, was startled; he hurriedly spoke up, "Don't misunderstand.

This one, or rather these few... strictly speaking, are figures of the immortal and divine order.

They have come down to the mortal world this time to deal with the blood-colored rain! How can you speak like that?"

"...... Immortals?"

Guo Furong's expression changed several times, a towering wave surging in her heart.

Although she very much wanted to refute it, considering that Bai Zhantang had never deceived them in the past, and Su Han and the others' features didn't look like mortals either... in the end she accepted this explanation.

Taking several deep breaths, forcibly steadying her emotions, Guo Furong sheathed her sword, forced out a smile, and bowed deeply, "A few immortals... I have been rude before, please forgive me."

"It's fine."

Su Han smiled slightly, casually opened the guild livestream, then turned his head to look at Roman with interest, "Have you found any trace of the enemy?"

Roman thought briefly, then suddenly pressed his palms together; the ten rings on his fingers emitted a faint glow.

At this moment, he gained the concept of God's Holy Son on Earth, thereby indirectly possessing the ability of omniscience and omnipotence.

"...... The enemy is still being nurtured! If we want to deal with it, it's very troublesome.

It would be equivalent to directly opposing this very heaven and earth!"

Dr. Roman suddenly opened his eyes, his brow furrowed tightly.

He spoke gravely, "But waiting for the enemy to finish being nurtured... is equally not an option!"

"Not to mention how long its nurturing will take... purely in terms of its nurturing, it requires the sacrifice of tens of millions of human lives; we absolutely cannot allow such a thing to happen."

"Then what should we do?"

Alucard said casually; he had lived too long and experienced too many things.

Therefore, he did not value human lives as much as Dr. Roman did, and was thus much more at ease.

Dr. Roman paced back and forth on the spot. "If this world had a Chaldea... then there'd still be plenty of room to maneuver on this matter! But with only me here..."

Though Dr. Roman hadn't said it outright, his meaning was plain as day... in his current state, he was powerless against this situation... "Making the enemy show themselves... I'll handle it myself."
