Online Game: Start as a Godslayer, Get Stronger by Killing Monsters
Chapter 23 Slow and Steady Progress
After Lin Ye finished recounting the events of being summoned by the gods, he was able to continue.
The Godfather was already in tears, overwhelmed with gratitude.
"Thank you so much! To hear this with my own ears, I have no regrets in this life!"
Lin Ye waved his hand and said, "Godfather, you can go ahead and do your work. I'll look into it myself."
"Of course, please do as you please. If you need any assistance, please don't hesitate to ask."
After saying this, the Godfather withdrew.
Just before he left, Lin Ye spoke again, "What about these books on the bookshelf?"
The Godfather bowed. "Please feel free to browse!"
Lin Ye smiled slightly, then picked up a book and asked, "What if I want to take it with me?"
The Godfather's tone remained unchanged as he continued, "Please make yourself at home, sir."
"Okay, I have no further questions."
And then the Godfather left.
Lin Ye picked up the Book of Titans and began to examine it carefully:
"In the ancient times before the gods took control of the laws, the world was ruled by the Titans."
"Valius is one of them."
"It rules over space. The distance between all things is but a thread in its palm—it can be pulled closer, torn apart, or woven into a cage. The gods fear this power, yet have long coveted it."
"After the First War of the Gods, Valius's body was sealed deep within the frozen abyss of the Ancient Frost Plains, and the remaining power was only enough to keep it from being completely destroyed."
The pop-up window appeared the moment after I finished reading.
[New location unlocked: Permafrost Abyss]
And coincidentally, on the map, next to this red dot of the permafrost abyss is another red dot.
The red dot is labeled: "[The Buried Treasure of the Ancient Frost Plains]"
"Is it a coincidence? Or was it intentional?"
Lin Ye lowered his head and pondered for a while, but couldn't come up with an answer.
"Fine, since they're all next to each other, we can just deal with them all at once."
Xiangming closed the Book of Titans and began to ponder another question.
"Now that my reputation in Frostfall City has reached the Honored level, and I have the support of the Godfather, I can theoretically mobilize troops to join me in the war against Titan."
"But..." Lin Ye shook his head, denying his own idea. "Even if the space titans of the ancient era have been sealed and their power weakened, I still need to be very prepared. How could they possibly deal with them? Besides, if they were to do something like that, they would just be cannon fodder. I don't need cannon fodder, and I certainly don't need meaningless deaths."
"and......"
Lin Ye took a badge out of his backpack.
It is the Phoenix Emblem.
"Before challenging the Space Titan, let's retrieve the Phoenix Egg first."
On the first day, his stats were indeed insufficient, but now it's the second day, and they should be enough for him to challenge the Phoenix Sanctuary.
Lin Ye put away the phoenix badge, got up, and went to the bookshelf to find an ancient book that contained a map of the Kingdom of Tin Silk.
Fortunately, it didn't take him long to find the record he was looking for in an ancient book.
"Um......"
After watching for a while, Lin Ye frowned with a strange expression.
It's not that the destinations are too far apart or the journey is too long.
On the contrary, it's too close.
It's so close that it's right inside Frostfall City.
As you enter through the city gate, you will see a statue, which is a deity. Behind the statue is a fountain, which was originally a stone niche from the Kingdom of Sisi.
It is also the hidden Phoenix Sanctuary.
Without the support of the church, this matter would be very difficult to handle.
After all, the statue was surrounded by guards, and the fountain behind it was naturally not to be trampled on.
Thinking it over, Lin Ye got up and went to find his godfather to seek help.
After briefly explaining the situation.
The Godfather's reaction was quite subtle; he didn't agree directly, but instead asked tactfully, "Sir, is this really so urgent?"
"What do you mean?"
Lin Ye frowned, a bad feeling rising in his heart.
After a moment's consideration, the Godfather cautiously said, "If you truly require it, I can have the fountain turned off."
Listen to the Godfather, there will obviously be consequences after this closure, and these consequences are so great that even the Savior would have to consider them carefully.
Lin Ye, disliking beating around the bush, went straight to the point: "Godfather, why don't you be more explicit? What will be the impact of turning off the fountain?"
Upon hearing that Lin Ye was willing to learn more, the Godfather visibly breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "Since you are willing to learn, I will certainly tell you everything I know. Frostfall City is built on the Ancient Frost Plain. Although there are many glaciers around it, the usable water sources are pitifully scarce. Frostfall City, for example, has a population of 300,000, including men, women, and children, but it can only rely on two water sources. One of them was seized several years ago and has now been forced to shut down. The other is the fountain, and the water source there is a miracle bestowed by my Lord himself."
"miracle?"
Lin Ye frowned even more deeply, and couldn't help but think:
A water-related miracle occurred at the location of the Phoenix Sanctuary, which represents rebirth from the ashes.
This is probably not a coincidence.
The Godfather continued, "Yes, it is a miracle, a source of water bestowed by our Lord. Therefore, if you wish to shut off the fountain, I can only..."
"The only solution is to erase the miracle, and then Frostfall City will have no water source, right?" Lin Ye added.
The Godfather nodded and said, "Yes."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ye lowered his head and pondered.
Therefore, there are only two options at the moment.
The first option is forcibly shutting down the fountain, leaving 300,000 people in the city without water.
The second type...
Lin Ye asked, "Godfather, could you tell me how the other water source was seized?"
"This..." The Godfather hesitated for a moment, not speaking directly, but saying tactfully, "Even the city's countless elite troops could not retake that water source. Although you are wise and powerful, you have only been in the world for a short time. It is already excellent that you have this intention. Why not spend more time tempering yourself in the human world and receive more blessings from the Lord before continuing your journey?"
This statement further piqued Lin Ye's interest.
You should know that his current identity is that of a savior with divine buffs.
Even under these circumstances, the Godfather still believed that he was not strong enough to save the second water source.
So what kind of force has seized this second water source?
Having thought this through, Lin Ye didn't argue, but instead said, "It seems that the Godfather still has some doubts about the blessing that God gave me."
"No! No!" The Godfather waved his hands in alarm and hurriedly said, "I was just worried about you, sir."
Lin Ye chuckled and continued, "Heh, Godfather, there's no need to panic. Are there any enemies outside the city right now? Why don't you let me test my sword and show Godfather the sharpness of my sword and the divine power it possesses? If I'm not as skilled as you, then I'll return to cultivate. We can discuss the fountain matter another day."
Upon hearing this, the Godfather also felt that it made perfect sense.
After all, it's a good thing that His Holiness the Savior is confident and willing to solve the water problem.
Moreover, a pack of wolves happened to be approaching not far from the city. The wolf king, who was causing the knight captain a great deal of trouble, might as well let His Excellency the Savior go and give it a try.
If successful, the savior will go to the water source; if defeated, he can retreat unscathed.
If you fail, then practice diligently, and the fountain's water source won't be interrupted immediately.
Thinking it over, the Godfather began, "Sir, there's a pack of wolves that recently migrated to the area outside the city..."
