Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 568: White Star Appears
"It's terrifying! Who would have thought that people who are usually like bugs could have such power!" The leaders of the evil god sect in the outer city gathered together again, but this time they were no longer discussing Perfecto, or rather, they were not mainly discussing her, but the people who suddenly burst out with powerful energy.

In the eyes of the leaders of these evil cults, the people are actually a group of ants, livestock herded by the gods, and they are the shepherds.

As for the livestock, they naturally have no choice but to listen to the shepherds and contribute their flesh, blood, and souls to the gods.

However, when they witnessed the energy bursting out from the people, they were deeply shocked, and at the same time they couldn't help but feel worried. If this power was used against them, how would they resist?

After all, they are not gods. Even if they have the ability to summon the gods of their respective beliefs, they are not real gods.

Since he is not a god, naturally there is still awe in his heart.

"Even ants have their uses, but we have ignored their power in the past." One of them didn't seem to be too touched by this, and his tone remained flat.

But what they said was also true. After all, who among them had ever cared about these ants whom they regarded as livestock?

"Compared to this, I am more concerned about whether this power will be used on us, and... can we control this power in turn?" Another person was relatively pragmatic and asked the question that everyone present was most concerned about.

This question also aroused everyone's ambition and desire. After all, this power is so powerful. If they can master it...

Thinking of this, they all looked at the other people around them at the same time. It was obvious that they were thinking the same thing.

"This force should be uncontrollable, otherwise it would not just affect the Lower City." Someone analyzed calmly, but there was always a trace of fear in his eyes: "I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to control this force. After all, it is too violent. Even if we can influence it, we can only guide this force and direct it to the goal we want, but it is impossible to control it."

"In fact, this is of the same nature as when we incited believers to start riots in the past, but the scale this time is larger, so it has such a huge impact." Obviously, there are many people with an optimistic attitude among the crowd.

Or it could be said that looking down on the people is a common problem among these people. Even though they have seen the power of the people, they still do not really take the people seriously in their hearts.

They just covet this power. Rather than being afraid, they are more distressed that they cannot master this power.

"It's almost the same. When we incited the people to riot in the past, it was indeed somewhat similar to this incident. The only difference is that when we incited the people, we always had reliable believers and people to guide them. While making it controllable, it also more or less affected the power it released." The calm analyst was still analyzing calmly, but he also pointed out a key point: "This incident should have a certain amount of pre-planning. The Steam Knight who appeared at the scene was arranged in advance, which proves that the person who instigated all this had a clear understanding of the possible impact of this incident.

This person may be the key to this incident... No, this person must be the key to this incident! If it weren't for this person's advance arrangement, I'm afraid half of Langton City would have been set on fire last night!"

"Then who do you think this person is? Could it really be that hot pepper from the North?" Some people were frightened and even had the urge to turn around and run.

In their opinion, if it was really Perfect who was directing all this, then she was a little too scary.

"If it's really her, then we will..." Someone wanted to say something harsh, but he was hesitant and couldn't be harsh. "There's nothing to worry about. In another month, Shirahoshi will return, and the gods will return to the world. No matter how powerful that little pepper is, she can't resist the power of the gods!" Someone took the lead and said something very confident.

But it is an indisputable fact that there is less than a month left before the White Star comes. Once the white wind brought by the White Star blows across the earth and freezes everything, the gods will come back to this world.

By then, not to mention a teenage girl, even the Victoria Empire will submit to the power of the gods.

They, the shepherds of the gods, will also become the most honorable people under the gods, and may even be promoted to subordinate gods by the gods they believe in.

With such a 'glorious' prospect, how could a group of livestock causing trouble deserve more attention from future gods?

"Everyone, work harder! We are already 5% ahead of the group next door. Let's strive to be 10% ahead of them before completion!" On the construction site, the foreman was holding a tin loudspeaker and loudly cheering on the workers in his group.

After experiencing the large-scale burning incident, the atmosphere in the entire lower town of Longton became clear, as if all the bad haze had been burned away with the fire.

The people have a new spirit, and almost everyone on the construction site is working diligently and conscientiously, shedding their sweat.

Although it is hard and tiring, compared to the previous days when there seemed no light in the sky and there was no future or hope, their lives now can be said to be very fulfilling.

Because they know clearly that every effort and hard work they make are for a better tomorrow, and are the price they pay to survive the coming cold winter.

Every drop of sweat they shed now is working for themselves.

With such awareness, how could they not work hard?
The workers responded to the foreman with enthusiastic shouts and moved faster, as if they really wanted to be 10% ahead of the next group before finishing.

With their efforts, a tall energy tower has taken shape and stands in the small square of the original block.

Many buildings around the energy tower have been demolished to make as much space as possible for the construction of the energy tower so that the construction can proceed more smoothly.

All of this is voluntary. The people who originally lived here moved away on their own initiative, and they also participated in the construction, working hard to build facilities that would allow them to survive the cold winter of the doomsday.

However, as time passed and the energy tower was getting closer to completion, a white star appeared in the night sky.
