Man on the ark, forced to become king

That scene was something I couldn't even imagine back then.

If he actually takes this thing and shows it off to the person involved, he'll be lucky if he doesn't get beaten half to death on the spot!

"how come?"

Lin Lu patted her chest, exuding confidence and self-assurance.

"You don't understand Lani. She's actually a woman who's cold on the outside but passionate on the inside. Ordinary designs won't satisfy her. She'll definitely love the Terminator doll that I designed myself!"

Ah, so that thing is called the Terminator?

Nian stared at him expressionlessly, then took two steps back.

Chapter 136 On the Transition of Dionysus

In the end, Nian refused to participate in the creation of the doll's body. She believed that a wise person would not stand under a dangerous wall. If such a thing were actually used, Lin Lu would be hung on the wall and beaten up. She did not want to offend the mistress of the Golden Tree in this way.

As for Xi, that silly boy is neither physically strong nor mentally developed, and he never even thought about this. Even a god couldn't help him.

Lin Lu deeply regretted not being able to get help from Nian, but she did not insist.

In reality, he was just saying it casually.

He could ask others for help with the design drawings, but since this was his own wife's body that she would use in the future, it was better for him to complete it himself.

So after being rejected by Nian, he directly gave the list of materials he had compiled to Kal'tsit.

Although it was agreed that she would be responsible for all the materials this time, Lin Lu thought about it and decided not to actually do so.

It wasn't that he felt sorry for the woman who had repeatedly opposed him, but if he let this cat handle all these materials, from contacting the source to purchasing them, it would take an unknown amount of time, and he couldn't afford to wait.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Lin Lu decided to let Kal'tsit be in charge of the more valuable materials, while he could purchase the ordinary, easily obtainable materials himself from Lungmen.

Anyway, the doll's body is only so big, and the amount of materials required is not too much. Apart from a few rare materials, the rest are not difficult to obtain.

It just so happens that he will be staying in Lungmen for the next few days, so that he can take action once Wei Yanwu finds out the specific details about the Letania.

Did he think he could just let it go after injuring his apprentice?

There is no door!

Even if Wei Yanwu didn't do it, he would personally drag those rats out of the gutter and beat them up.

Who among his old friends didn't know that he had no enemies?

It's already the greatest mercy to let those guys keep jumping around for a few more days. No matter who helped them or what they want to do, they must pay the price for what they've done!

How many days he has left to live depends on when Wei Yanwu can find them.

Actually, Lin Lu initially wanted Mostima and Fiameta to help out so that they could deal with those guys together once they had news, lest any escape.

Nian and Xi are unable to return to Longmen recently, so the two of them are the strongest fighting force that the Golden Tree can offer at this stage.

Unfortunately, Mostima is about to return to Laterano, as the school there is about to start its graduation season and she needs to go back to pick up her friend's younger sister.

She's supposedly a pretty cute little girl. According to the agreement we'd already made, Mostima is going to bring her out of Laterano this time and settle her in one of the outer cities she's visited—though it's obvious that this outer city is most likely Lungmen.

After all, Penguin Logistics' headquarters are in Lungmen, so it would be a pretty good choice if they wanted to settle down there.

Lin Lu thought it was quite good, at least.

"Young man, boss, I'm back!"

The sun was high in the sky, shining brightly.

Lin Lu skillfully pushed open the bar door and immediately saw the Black Wolf Girl wiping the tables and chairs.

It has to be said that Texas was much more diligent than they were back then.

"You still remember to come back to my place?"

The emperor nestled on the sofa like a doll, his round body almost making it hard to tell his head from his tail.

"Look at what you're saying. I just got back. There are always some people who want to cause trouble, but that's not my problem."

Lin Lu casually pulled out a bottle of drink from behind the counter, poured herself a glass, seemingly unaware of the recent events at Longmen.

No matter how much he pretends, no one will believe him.

"Boss, what do you know about Dionysus?"

This guy has been pretending for a long time, so Lin Lu ignored his pretense and asked the question that interested her most.

No matter how much the remnants of the Witch King lurking in Longmen try to cause trouble, they can't possibly wreak havoc if Longmen is prepared.

Wei Yanwu and the Rat King joined forces to weave a huge net that ensnared the entire Dragon Gate, just waiting for them to come to them so they could follow the trail and capture them all in one fell swoop.

So instead of thinking about a group of people who are destined to die, it's better to think about their master—the god of wine.

According to Wei Yanwu, this deity has a very ancient history, so ancient that it seems to have existed since the beginning of civilization.

In this event, His shadow was everywhere, and the old followers of the Witch King relied on the divine power they received from praying to Him to pass through the scrutiny of the Dragon Gate.

The troupe also relied on His power to attract so many Letanian nobles who favored the Witch King.

However, in the end, all their efforts were in vain.

Now, not only are the Letanians who have been lurking in Lungmen wanted throughout the entire territory, but even the theater troupe that has been traveling across the continent as a divine servant has suffered heavy losses. Even the high-ranking announcer has been killed, and the incarnation of Dionysus was killed on the spot, and even his true form was almost threatened.

Could such an ancient deity willingly swallow this insult?

impossible.

Lin Lu was almost certain that the God of Wine was brewing something and would soon retaliate fiercely.

Therefore, it would be best to learn more about His methods at this time.

"Dionysus? You've been to the theater troupe?"

Upon hearing the name, the emperor raised his head, seemingly unsurprised. Judging from his reaction, it seemed he had known from the beginning what was going on in that troupe, but had simply kept quiet and pretended not to know.

It’s dark, so dark.

“I went there. I smashed His theater troupe, killed His incarnation, captured a high-ranking member of His retinue, and got what I wanted.”

"puff--!"

The wine that had just entered his mouth created a rainbow in the air, and the emperor suddenly sprang up from the sofa, no longer as composed as before.

"Ahem, you overturned His stall?"

"Otherwise what? Isn't that exactly what you wanted to see?"

Lin Lu retorted, her expression clearly saying, 'Stop pretending, I understand everything.'

"Let's communicate, let's communicate!"

The round penguin paced back and forth on the table. The Emperor patted his head, and upon hearing this, he patted his head again, looking quite helpless.

"Is your brain all muscle? When a normal person encounters a problem related to gods, they would want to negotiate first, right? Who would just jump in and start fighting?"

"I had no choice. He detained my men there. I sent people over to gather intelligence; I couldn't just stand by and watch them die."

Lin Lu shrugged, not really caring.

It's just a god. If we offend him... well, so be it. What else can we do?

There might be some trouble, but it's just trouble. With experts like Nian and Xi in charge now, why would Golden Tree be afraid of him?

These days, who isn't a god? Even if you can't beat someone, protecting yourself isn't a problem.

"Tsk, young people."

The Emperor shook his head speechlessly, pacing back and forth on the table several times before finally speaking: "The history of Dionysus is very ancient, almost as ancient as the history of existing civilizations."

"He reveres wine, art, and desire, and has countless legends and variant incarnations on this land, even capable of drawing an entire region into his domain."

"His power is far greater than that of the Yan Kingdom god who is with you, and he is almost impossible to kill. His legend is so widespread that even if he were killed, he would quickly be resurrected from the legend. Provoking him is more troublesome than provoking any other god."

"His strongest authority is to manipulate people's desires, followed by creating illusions and influencing space. These are all very troublesome abilities and difficult to deal with."

The Great Emperor is indeed a Great Emperor; he is very knowledgeable about even the secrets of the gods, and he knows everything about their authority.

What he said was indeed true. If an ordinary person encountered such an opponent, they would definitely have a headache. Even if they gathered experts to block one or two retaliations, it would be of no use.

The gods have endless time and cannot be killed; such relentless revenge is enough to drive a person mad.

However, this trick doesn't work against the Golden Tree.

Immortal?

Those destined to die like to attack things that they believe to be immortal and indestructible!

Once He is killed by His destined death, it will be of no use no matter how many believers He has, how many legends He has, or how many contingency plans He has prepared on this earth.

Everything will eventually meet an equal death, and even immortal gods will perish.

His destined death will end all traces of him in this world, returning him to eternal silence.

In more popular terms, it's called 'true damage'.

No matter how strong your recovery ability is, it's useless; they've already dug out your roots.
