Alien world

Chapter 1365 287. Farewell Gift

Raymond died, but a little light came out of his body.

Compared to the swaying, bloated corpse, it was so holy that it almost attracted everyone's attention the moment it appeared.

“That’s divinity.”

The old patriarch appeared beside Annan at some point.

"Divinity?"

"Well, the human lord didn't absorb it, so he died and his divinity fell out."

As he spoke, the divine light ball began to move, floating towards Annan—

"Why is it floating towards me?"

"Because you have the most faith." The old patriarch said meaningfully.

The boy had only been lord for three years, but he had gathered more faith than his fellow blue dragons.

Seeing Annan avoiding the divine presence with disdain, the old patriarch said, "Open your body and mind to receive it."

Annan didn't want to accept anything of unknown origin - and it came from Lord Raymond.

“Does it have any side effects?”

"There is almost nothing except responsibility and covetousness."

"What's the benefit?"

"All of them... You can release the Law of God spell, and you can release and ignore all spells below the fourth level. In the future, when you embark on the path of legend, or even the path of becoming a god, it will become a beam of light that points the way forward for you."

Without sufficient benefits, how could Lord Raymond be so ambitious as to kill all the people in the Church of Wealth and forge the identity of God's spokesperson?
Legends and becoming a god are too far away for Annan, but instant spells that ignore fourth-ring spells are very attractive... but he is still a little hesitant.

"You are the first to resist divinity."

If Olmedo had not been fast asleep in his bedroom, he would have said at this moment that "anyone who is ignorant enough would mistake lemonade for deadly bubbling poison."

"Because I remember that divinity also means responsibility, right?"

"The gods have lost contact, and the people's faith is not being responded to. Who can restrain you?"

That makes sense... Then what reason does Annan have to reject divinity?

No longer resisting, he stretched out his hand and allowed the divine light to merge into his palm, and then... it seemed as if he just felt a slight warmth, and there was something extra in his mind, and then it was nothing.

Annan tried to release the mage's hand, but nothing happened.

“You have to make it your divinity,” said the old patriarch.

"what should I do?"

The old patriarch is not a teacher, but the knowledge and truth he possesses are definitely more extensive than any other teacher: "Listen to it, understand it, and accept it."

"Uh...I try."

No wonder Lord Raymond failed until his death.

Fermi stared at the last nobleman on the gallows as he breathed his last. They were like wind chimes, swaying in the cold wind, making a beautiful clanging sound.

Normally, the hanged person would be hung on the gallows for several days until the air dried. However, Annan did not want to go too far, after all, the nobles had families and friends behind them.

He signaled to Fermi to put the person down and let the family members take the body away.

Almost everything that needed to be done was done, and it was time for them to leave.

There was no need to be so anxious, but Annan was worried that the believers who were pursuing him would come into conflict with the blue dragon, and the Broken Mountains needed stability the most right now.

Annan took a deep breath and ordered: "Ring the Golden City Bell and tell the people of Liberty City that it's time to leave."

……

"Give it to me?"

Joan was holding an oil painting in her hands in surprise. The painting showed a girl in armor holding a sword high, surrounded by corpses and arrows.

"We will never forget that you rescued us from the dark mine!" The Freedom Gang members stood in front of Joan, almost blocking the street tightly.

"Thank you...I like it very much."

Joan's nose felt a little sore, but she felt it was too embarrassing to cry at this time, so she forced herself to hold it back. "I will remember all of you, too."

The Freedom Gang members in front of him dispersed, and Harding came out holding a little girl.

"Are you sure you don't want to go back to Liberty City with us?" Joan put down the painting and asked him.

Harding expressed his reluctance: "Boss, my father is from Broken Mountains, my children are from Broken Mountains, and I want to be from Broken Mountains too."

Joan stopped persuading him. Didn't Harding change his mind because of Liberty City prove that she was right about him?

Dang——dang——

When the bell rang, Joan raised her head and listened for a few seconds, then said to Harding and the others, "Okay, I'm leaving now. You guys follow Wilson and do your best."

"Okay, boss!"

The Freedom Gang members said in unison, attracting many different looks.

Joan couldn't wipe her face, so she waved her hand as a farewell and turned to walk towards the square.

There was a commotion coming from the jewelry store on the street. Joan turned her head and saw Mrs. Phelan arguing with the clerk, and President Phelan, who was wearing a linen coat, standing by the side in a dejected manner.

Arriving at the square, Joan walked over to Annan who was standing next to the portal.

"The painting that the Freedom Gang gave me." She showed it to Annan.

"Freedom leads the people?" Annan looked at it carefully and said, "Preserve it well."

"I will."

The portal then lit up and a group of young officials walked out.

Annan, who had been standing here waiting for them, spoke to encourage them.

These young officials have just graduated from the academy, they are young and vigorous. Together with the Church of Wealth, they will assist the Blue Dragon Clan in governing the Golden City and accumulate rich experience.

After seeing them off, Captain Ryan came over with his team members.

"Are you going back to Osculus next?"

Annan paid off the hiring fee yesterday and gave an additional tip equal to the hiring fee - this was his most generous act ever.

"No, we still have to take on commissions and look for evil dragons. We won't go back until the cash box is full."

"Good luck to you, and we'll see you again."

"I look forward to that day."

After saying goodbye to Captain Ryan and the others, Annan and Joan returned to Liberty City.

He came to a vacant space specially cleared in the park, ready to complete the last thing here -

Annan raised his head and looked at a black dot appearing on the horizon.

It was an ancient dragon with scales as deep blue as the deep sea. It flapped its wings that covered the sky and the sun, grabbed the huge fragments of the temple, and slowly landed in the open space in front of Annan.

As soon as the temple fragments fell to the ground, the soil seemed to have turned into liquid, and was pushed away by the heavy fragments and sank straight into the ground.

clang--

First there was a loud bang, and the temple fragments hit the mountain copper on the bottom floor of Liberty City, and then the ground under the feet gradually tilted.

Annan realized that Liberty City could not even bear the fragments of the temple!
There were cries of surprise from all over the city. Tea was spilled in the houses, furniture was moved, fruits rolled on the streets, and merchants struggled to hold their carts.

As for the people in the Golden City below, they saw the floating city tilting and falling towards the ground!

Annan reacted and summoned the merchant immediately.

"Quick! Give me—"

Annan saw the merchant holding the arcane energy core, and he looked even more anxious than himself: "Take me to the core room!"

There was no time to figure out how the merchant knew this, as Annan yelled at Lilith to teleport them to the core room and insert the arcane energy core into the base in time.

The increasingly tilted Liberty City gradually regained its stability, and while the people of the Golden City were still in shock, it began to take off and sail towards the distance.
