Chapter 292: Do We Have to Kill All the Believers?

~14 min read 2,772 words

Star Republic, Star Image Research Institute, Astrology Tower. Deity Deity Diluni rubbed his messy hair as he came out, boarded the carriage, and said irritably: "Go to the Mage Tower."

The carriage had no horses and no driver, but as soon as Deity Deity Diluni finished speaking, the carriage actually moved, driving steadily forward. If anyone saw this scene, they would have to sigh: New magic technology, driverless?

Arriving at the Mage Tower, Au Benli was already waiting there. Seeing Deity Deity Diluni with messy hair getting off the carriage, her face immediately stiffened.

Seeing her expression, Deity Deity Diluni reacted instantly, pressing his hands on his head, shrinking his neck back into the carriage. Two minutes later, when he came out, that hair—which hadn't been washed for months, oily, flaky, and like a chicken coop—was already clean, smooth, and flowing, along with the magic robe on his body, which was also neat and tidy.

Unfortunately, the split ends and the stains on the edges of the robe all showed that this was just a superficially neat disguise.

However, doing it to this extent was already considered qualified. Au Benli couldn't manage his underwear cleanliness; there was no such school rule.

Rolling her eyes at him, Au Benli scolded: "One by one, making you wash your hair is like wanting your life. You don't sweep the floor or wash the bowls. If you don't want to wash, find a servant; it's not like you don't have money. Every day you make yourself look like a refugee..."

Deity Deity Diluni instantly felt like he had returned to his student days, the fear of being dominated by the dean. What was even more terrifying was that the dean who made him fear back then was still the dean now, still managing him. It was truly fatal.

To stop this brain-piercing magic sound, Deity Deity Diluni hurriedly changed the subject: "Grandma Au Benli, you are getting more and more beautiful. Is the technology of Meishencheng really that amazing? Can it cure baldness? I want to go and try."

If he used other topics to change the subject, Au Benli would ignore him, and maybe scold him even more severely. But as long as he mentioned Meishencheng, Au Benli would basically fall for it.

Rolling her eyes at him, Au Benli followed his topic and turned around: "You found the right person. Meishencheng is the best at curing baldness, even better than beauty and skin rejuvenation. Go and try it when you have time. Your hair quality is too poor, going out loses face for our Star Republic."

"Good, good, good, I'll go take a look when I have time." Deity Deity Diluni had just breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment, Au Benli turned back again:

"I know you find me annoying, managing you all even though you're so old, but you have to let me rest assured. One by one, you all nest in the tower, either meditating, stargazing, or inventing and creating. You don't even eat on time, let alone talk about love, get married, and have children."

"I arrange blind dates for you, and you all push them off and don't go. How can you get married and have children? Do you want our Star Republic to go extinct? Without children, the wisdom crystallization of our predecessors cannot be passed down. You are all sinners."

Deity Deity Diluni wanted to cry. What was even more terrifying than the dean was the God of Love, who tried every possible way to urge you to get married every day. What was even more terrifying was that the dean and the God of Love were the same person.

"Isn't there you?" Deity Deity Diluni chuckled. The former Star Tower had broken its inheritance, and in the end, it was Au Benli who re-established it. So theoretically, all the mages in the Star system were Au Benli's students.

"*Hehe*," Au Benli sneered: "I serve you, and then I have to serve your descendants, right? You are really not polite."

"No, no, oh, Grandma Au Benli, I'll listen to everything, I'll listen to everything, okay? Whatever you want to do, just order it. I'll immediately gather everyone to do it for you." Deity Deity Diluni gave in.

The usual way to change the subject was effective, but it wasn't effective today. Au Benli must have had other plans.

"It's not a difficult matter. I want to reopen the Hall of Heroes, move the statue of Red Star to the square here, and make a row of benches and sun umbrellas for rest, for students to talk about love, so they don't graduate without finding a spouse, all lonely like you." Au Benli couldn't help but add a sarcasm at the end.

"No problem, no problem, I'll immediately let the school affairs office do it. Moving the statue, Xi Lu Di and I will handle it, how about that? But is this useful? Can a row of benches make everyone interested in talking about love?" Deity Deity Diluni asked suspiciously.

Au Benli smiled slightly: "You are not professional in other things. I will find professional people to do it. At that time, people from Meishencheng will come to do things. If everyone can live happily under the gaze of the statue, Teacher Red Star should be very happy."

Deity Deity Diluni looked solemn: "It will, Red Star shines."

After settling this matter, Au Benli finally stopped nagging him and turned to say: "I asked a friend who is familiar with the elves, and they told me that the Tree of Life burned."

"What?! The Tree of Life burned? You didn't..." Deity Deity Diluni was shocked.

Such a big thing as the Tree of Life burning, Au Benli didn't tell him the first time, but instead nagged for a long time about blind dates, marriage, and having children. Could it be that having children was more important than the Tree of Life burning?

"It was saved back, the elves are in post-disaster reconstruction," Au Benli said slowly.

"Grandma Au Benli, don't gasp when you speak next time, you scared me to death. If something happens to the elves, this plane will be in chaos, and I won't have time to stargaze. Recently, the movement of the Death Star has been a bit strange. I'm afraid the end-of-the-world disaster is about to come," Deity Deity Diluni said irritably.

The Death Star Deity Deity Diluni mentioned didn't refer to Au Benli's title, but to one of the stars in the sky observed by astrology. Every person with a title in the Star Republic had a corresponding star in the sky.

Au Benli glanced at him and said: "Since the subject of astrology existed, every few years someone has told me that the Death Star is abnormal. Even if there is an abnormality, you still have to go on a blind date for me."

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll listen to you." To avoid being nagged, Deity Deity Diluni hurriedly echoed Au Benli's words.

It was not easy to get into the Mage Tower, arrive at the conference room, start the teleportation communication, and connect to the node of the plane security meeting.

The signal lights representing Pope Gu Li Guli Guli Anni, Archbishop Dai Sen, and the Dwarf War God were all on, representing that several of them had already connected to the communication.

However, Deity Deity Diluni was no longer in a hurry. Au Benli had brought him news, and knowing what happened to the elves, he was no longer in a hurry.

He wouldn't doubt Au Benli's source of information and accuracy. As a lich who had lived for a thousand years, Au Benli's information channels were much richer than his.

At this moment, the three who had already lit their lights were obviously as anxious as he was before. Seeing his connection signal, the Dwarf War God immediately couldn't hold back and asked: "Lord Deity Deity Diluni, what happened to the elves, do you know? My War God's Eye can see that a giant fire has ignited in the Elf Forest, but I can't see clearly what exactly happened, and there's no response from the elves. It's worrying me to death."

Deity Deity Diluni looked at the signal lights and said: "There are still two people who haven't come. The meeting will wait until they are all here before starting."

"Oh my, you humans are really troublesome. If you have anything to say, just say it first, and then say it again when they come. It's worrying me to death," the Dwarf War God complained in a rough voice.

Deity Deity Diluni didn't respond, and there was no sound from Gu Li Guli Guli Anni and Dai Sen. The meeting communication became eerily quiet, with only the sound of the dwarf's restless pacing. The Dwarf War God loved to wear his iron combat boots, and the sound of his pacing was very loud.

Slowly, the two lights representing Anthony and Bu Lusike finally lit up. As soon as the lights lit up, Anthony's apology sounded hurriedly: "Sorry, sorry, I'm late, I'm late. I just went to ask about the elves' news, so I'm late. Sorry everyone, kept you waiting."

Anthony still knew how to speak. Although the other party was also from the Church of Light, Deity Deity Diluni couldn't hate him, so he hurriedly echoed: "It's okay, it's okay, I just arrived not long ago. You went to inquire about the elves' news? Can you share your news and compare it with mine?"

Bu Lusike said slowly: "I also inquired about some news. Anthony, you speak first."

"Oh, the matter is like this: the Tree of Life burned," Anthony said.

"What!"

"What? The Tree of Life burned? That fire burned so half the forest could see it. Could it be that the Tree of Life was what burned?"

"The elves are going to go crazy."

Dai Sen, the Dwarf War God, and Gu Li Guli Guli Anni exclaimed in unison. The shocking nature of this news made them unable to control themselves.

"But it was saved back. The elves are in post-disaster reconstruction. The disaster area is about one hundred kilometers, and over ten thousand elves died," Anthony said.

Gu Li Guli Guli Anni, Dai Sen, and the Dwarf War God all experienced the stimulation of their moods going up and down, while Deity Deity Diluni and Bu Lusike showed strange expressions: How could this fellow's intelligence be so similar to mine? Could our intelligence sources be the same?

"The news I inquired about is about the same," Deity Deity Diluni said.

"Mine too," Bu Lusike said puzzledly.

The intelligence sources of the three parties all confirmed that a major event had happened to the elves, but it had already been resolved, and there was no subsequent danger, so everyone naturally breathed a sigh of relief and ended this topic.

Deity Deity Diluni, who was presiding over the meeting, said: "Okay, the elf topic is closed. Does anyone have any new topics? If not, the meeting is adjourned."

"Yes," Gu Li Guli Guli Anni's voice rang out: "The following topic is proposed by our Church of Light together, concerning the safety of the plane. I hope everyone will consider it carefully."

A giant question mark instantly popped up in Anthony's mind: Proposed by the Church of Light together? How come I don't know? Oh, I'm no longer from the Church of Light; I'm from the Holy Church.

Gu Li Guli Guli Anni continued: "The Land of Sinking has fallen into the hands of undead creatures. West of the Central Mountains, it used to be our human territory. There is a large area of weak plane barriers there. Just build a teleportation array, and you can teleport to the main plane."

"However, there is no need to worry about this aspect. The number of teleportations in the teleportation array is limited, and undead creatures cannot invade on a large scale in this way. What we need to guard against is undead creatures tearing open giant spatial rifts and pouring into the main plane. That will be the end of the main plane."

"Spatial rifts need to penetrate the weak points of the plane barriers. If undead creatures want to enter the main plane in this way, then the following places are the most likely to be broken through: the Holy Blade Fortress at the southernmost tip of the continent, the Longdao overseas, the Elf Forest, the Dark Face City in the desert, the Dragon Fall Lake, the Black Iron Fortress, the Snow Mountain Range, XX, XXX, XXXX, and other places."

"Our Church of Light has limited power and cannot defend all places. I hope everyone can organize forces to defend the weak points of the barriers in their respective territories nearby."

The meeting communication was silent for a while, and then Anthony was the first to respond: "The Holy Blade Fortress will be defended by our Holy Church."

Bu Lusike responded next: "Longdao will be defended by our dragon race. There are actually more weak points in the barriers on the sea. If undead creatures dare to break through from here, it's equivalent to sending themselves to death. Our dragon race will patrol the major islands."

The Dwarf War God hurriedly echoed: "The Black Iron Fortress is our responsibility. Absolutely no undead creature will be able to leave the Black Iron Mountain Range alive."

No one at the meeting complained, but Lord Nai Ge, who was projected onto Anthony, couldn't help but complain to Ang: "If they can't leave alive, then can they leave dead?"

Deity Deity Diluni responded fourth: "The Snow Mountain Range will be defended by our Star Republic. As for the Elf Forest, *hehe*, the Tree of Life didn't burn down. As long as the God of Life is still there, no matter how many undead creatures there are, they won't be able to walk out of the forest."

Lord Nai Ge and Anthony were both silent. What if the God of Life is no longer in the forest?

After everyone allocated their tasks, Gu Li Guli Guli Anni continued: "Then now only Meishencheng and Dark Face City remain. Meishencheng is currently occupied by a group of Abyss Wanderers, and there is a pile of undead creatures hidden in Dark Face City. If the Undead Empire chooses to break through from here, they will get support. So I propose to form a coalition army to eliminate the Abyss Wanderers and undead creatures in these two places."

Lord Nai Ge's heart skipped a beat: *Ku Ba Da*, the Church of Light still hasn't given up?

Deity Deity Diluni said: "Hmm, if there is the premise of the undead army in the Land of Sinking, Meishencheng and Dark Face City are indeed places that need to be cleared..."

Speaking of this, a muffled sound came from Deity Deity Diluni's side, as if someone had been slapped on the head. However, everyone felt they had heard wrong. Who dared to slap Deity Deity Diluni's head?

Pausing for a moment, Deity Deity Diluni's voice continued: "However, the Abyss Wanderers and Dark Face City are law-abiding. There's no need to organize a coalition army, right? Just find someone to keep a close watch on them."

"No," Gu Li Guli Guli Anni opposed on the spot: "How to watch? Dark Face City is accessible from all directions. If a plane rift is really opened, I guess we'll only discover it after hundreds of millions of undead creatures pour out. Meishencheng seems to have a connection with Dark Face City, so it must be cleared together."

The communication was silent again. Such things could definitely not be decided by one person. Everyone would definitely listen to the suggestions of their subordinates.

A few minutes later, Deity Deity Diluni said: "How about this, Plane Security Resolution No. XX, organize a coalition army to clear the Abyss Wanderers in Meishencheng and the undead creatures in Dark Face City. The motion starts voting. The elves are absent, we vote first. If the votes are equal, then find the elves for a by-election."

Three minutes later, the voting results came out: three votes for and three votes against.

Land of Sinking, Eternal Night arrives. Ha Wei left the cave, shaking the signal fire in his hand irritably: "This thing is really annoying. Do we really have to kill all the believers to extinguish it?"

Arching his body, the horn-like soul fluctuation spread far away, and the Land of Sinking boiled again. ===== CHAPTER 293 =====
