Honkai Summoning.

"What?" Su Mo turned to look at Tang Tian outside the car window.

“This…” Tang Tian frowned, and finally handed Su Mo a piece of paper with a phone number on it. “This is her new contact information. In short, I hope she can keep a little low profile.”

"Keep a low profile? That's unlikely." Su Mo took the note. No matter what Jin Shanshan was doing, it was basically impossible to get him to keep a low profile.

How could someone who is covered in gold, wears gold armor, and wears gold chains all the time possibly be low-key?

Tang Tian shook his head without saying a word and walked into the small village. A quarantine zone was being built outside the hemispherical house to ensure safety.

Having arrived in Ancheng, the nearest city, Su Mo contacted the Butler Association and strolled through the streets, pondering what to do next. After experiencing a less-than-successful end-of-days era, Earth had inexplicably embarked on a completely different path.

Although the order of Earth has not been greatly affected so far, the emergence of a large number of new X individuals and the containment facility will inevitably impact the world order and eventually completely rewrite the status quo.

Don't forget, this situation isn't unique to China; similar events of varying degrees have occurred in various parts of the world. China's situation is relatively better; from the few words Tang Tian revealed, it seems that other places are experiencing even more serious situations.

As for the specifics, since Su Mo didn't choose to join the Special Operations Bureau, Tang Tian and the others wouldn't specifically tell him. If Su Mo wanted to know something, it wouldn't be difficult. Aside from other things, he could obtain a lot of information through the Butler Association. Members of Su Mo's level in the Butler Association were all wealthy and powerful, so their information network was naturally much better than that of ordinary people.

Unbeknownst to Su Mo, various undercurrents are brewing on Earth... all sorts of people and forces are stirring up trouble.

When the light screen in the shelter disappeared at noon today, in a Taoist temple in a remote mountain forest in China, an old Taoist priest, holding a compass-like object in his hand, shouted with a flushed face: "Heaven bless my Cangyue Sect! Heaven bless my Cangyue Sect! The Taoist sect, the true Taoist sect, has finally waited for its time of revival!"

However, he looked impatient with the handsome young man opposite him.

After his initial excitement subsided, the old Taoist priest said to the young man, "As the eldest disciple of the Cangyue Sect in this generation, your time has finally come."

"Old man, aren't you an old swindler? What new trick is this?" the boy asked, picking his ear.

"Heh." The old Taoist priest was not angry. Instead, he took out a tattered Taoist book from his robes and stuffed it into the boy's hands. "Since the compass has moved, it proves that the era of Taoism has finally arrived. You are the one chosen by destiny."

The boy paused for a moment, looking at the old Taoist priest with some confusion.

"You've followed me all these years, and the foundation has been laid. I thought it would always be like this, but I never expected that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth would return today. Very good." The old Taoist waved his hand. "Alright, from today onwards, you don't need to come to the Taoist temple anymore. I remember you got into university. Go and gain experience. My Cangyue Sect never works behind closed doors. Refining one's heart in the mortal world is also the way." After saying that, he stood up and walked to the back room of the dilapidated Taoist temple, closing the door behind him.

"Could they be lying to me?" The boy looked at the Taoist book and suddenly began to believe it.

Chapter 121 The Birth of a Cult

"Who cares? Let's just try it out and see." After thinking for a while, the boy opened the ancient Taoist book in his hand.

Although the book looks tattered and has an antique feel, it is written in common characters, so there is no problem with not understanding it.

According to the book, the boy practiced a set of so-called body-strengthening boxing techniques that he had been practicing for more than five years. Then he calmed down and tried to feel the internal energy described in the Taoist book.

A moment later, the boy, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened them. His eyes were incredibly bright and captivating. Then, he opened his mouth and let out a long howl.

"You didn't lie to me!" After the long howl, the boy looked around in surprise. From that moment on, his world seemed to have changed. Everything became so clear and visible. The boy could even feel a silkworm cocoon in the corner of the yard that seemed to be about to break out of its cocoon.

Just like him now!

"Old man... no, Master, what happened to me just now?" the boy asked, pounding on the tightly closed door.

After a long while, the old Taoist priest's voice came from inside the room: "Go, my child, the rise and fall of the Taoist sect rests on your shoulders alone."

The boy stopped moving and nodded heavily: "I understand, Master, I won't let you down!" With that, he picked up the Taoist book and strode out of the somewhat dilapidated little Taoist temple.

Inside the room, the old Taoist priest sighed, "Born at the wrong time, born at the wrong time..."

In addition, other organizations in the world that had gradually faded away with the arrival of the end times also realized that their era seemed to have come again.

"Hahaha……"

Someone burst into wild laughter, "Su Mo, you will pay the price for the hatred of the Order of the Cross!"

"Heh. The price? What price?" someone said from the side.

"The end of the Dharma era is here. Don't you feel the power within our bloodlines stirring again? We will once again take control of the world!"

"..."

After a long silence, the voice spoke again, "Your blood is beginning to boil; you possess the legendary power of your ancestors. But what about the Dark King?"

"He was already that powerful in the Dharma-ending Age. Now that the shackles that have bound the world have been broken, who can stop that monster?"

"A monster that devours souls, are you sure we're not serving it a delicious meal?"

The pleasant atmosphere in the room came to an abrupt halt, and after a long while, a curse rang out: "Fuck you!"

What impact will the end of the Dharma-ending Age have on Su Mo?

There was no direct impact, of course. Unlike those others, Su Mo didn't decline generation after generation. Eventually, he could no longer control his special power. His power came from a fragment of the Heavenly Dao... rather than from spiritual energy or bloodline.

This power cannot be taken away even in the Dharma-ending Age, so whether the Dharma-ending Age comes or goes, it has no direct impact on Su Mo's personal strength.

But indirectly... for the Dark Lord who devours souls, those souls that could only be used as reserves of life force finally became worthy of his attention.

What is the Night King doing right now?

He was happily eating grilled skewers at a street food stall. Despite being the mighty Dark Lord, his actual enjoyment was far less than that of other great figures. After all, he had spent a long time in a state of "living dead."

After finally being completely freed from the serfdom and singing songs of liberation, before he could even begin to enjoy it, he was summoned to a chaotic world.

This time, the unfortunate "poison" seems to be settling down for a while, and Su Mo can finally stroll around the streets and eat something when he has nothing to do.

As for the money… the Butler Association has already taken care of everything in this city, like Ancheng, where Su Mo is located. They also have branches in larger cities or tourist destinations like Haichuan City. While maintaining high prices, they are committed to ensuring that a diamond client like Su Mo receives the most satisfactory service.

However, the Butler Association was just a decent multinational corporation, capable of providing conveniences in terms of food, clothing, and shelter, but unable to meet Su Mo's special requirement—to find an absolutely quiet, secluded, and sturdy space.

Such places are not easy to find, at least not in Ancheng. The only places that can meet Su Mo's requirements are probably the underground corpse storage areas of medical universities or hospitals.

"Forget it, I don't want to go to that kind of awful place. Let's put it aside for now. There's no rush." ​​With that thought, Su Mo took out his phone and dialed Jin Shanshan's number.

Gilgamesh integrated into this world quite quickly; he even got a cell phone.

"Who?"

The call connected, and Jin Shanshan's arrogant voice came through.

"It's me, where are you?" Su Mo asked.

"Ah, so it's you," Gilgamesh said. "What business do you have with me?"

"It's nothing, just seeing if you can integrate well into this world," Su Mo said.

Gilgamesh raised his voice slightly: "Are you looking down on me?"

"Talking to you is exhausting," Su Mo said. "Since we've integrated so well, why not do less trouble? Wouldn't it be better to be a low-key tycoon? Anyway, there's no Holy Grail in this world..." Su Mo's voice trailed off.

He remembered that Earth also had the Holy Grail, but it was definitely different from the Holy Grail in the Type-Moon universe.

In a sense, the Holy Grail and other special items are also a manifestation of the world's will. Before the end times arrive, these things also possessed certain miraculous effects. Of course, they weren't as exaggerated as legends portray, but they were, after all, "divine objects."

If we eat those things too, will the number of fragmented pages of the Heavenly Dao increase?

"It seems I need to rebuild my power..." Su Mo thought to himself.

"Keep a low profile?"

Jin Shanshan's voice interrupted Su Mo's thoughts, "How could the brilliance of someone as dazzling as me be concealed?"

"Never mind... whatever makes you happy," Su Mo said.

"By the way, do you have IN?" Gilgamesh suddenly asked.

"Yes, but I've never used it," Su Mo said. It's a social networking app that's been around for decades and is still incredibly popular, attracting both young and old alike to share photos and their feelings.

Many grandparents' dark pasts were unearthed here, causing them great sorrow.

However, as an old-fashioned person, Su Mo's speed in accepting new things is not very fast. This can be seen from the fact that he likes to play some very old games and is obsessed with them. He has an equally old account, but rarely uses it.

"Hurry up and like my photo," Gilgamesh said. "As my... personal attendant, how could you not keep track of my activities?"

"What?" Su Mo was stunned for a moment. "What do you want to do? And when did I become your personal attendant?"

“This is your honor.” Jin Shanshan answered the second half of Su Mo’s question before explaining, “Didn’t I tell you that I plan to become a star?”

"puff!"

Su Mo spat out the milk tea in his mouth, casually threw it into the trash can, and asked, "Say it again."

"I want to be a star. I want the common people of this world to know my greatness," Gilgamesh said matter-of-factly.

"If you want to be recognized, you don't need to be a celebrity, just run for president," Su Mo said.

"Ha, I'm tired of controlling the lives of ordinary mortals." Jin Shanshan repeated what he had said to Gao Qing to Su Mo.

"...This sounds quite interesting," Su Mo said. "Where are you now? By the way, if you want to be a star, have you found a management company yet? When do you plan to debut?"

Su Mo didn't know much about the entertainment industry. However, having lived a life of hedonism for a period of time, he was quite familiar with female celebrities. Occasionally, he would overhear them talking and glean some useful information.

"Debut? I'm currently live streaming on Doocat TV, does that count as a debut?" Jin Shanshan asked.

"..."

There was no more milk tea to give Su Mo, so this time Su Mo calmly asked, "Teasing Cats TV live stream...who came up with this idea?"

“That Gao Qing, who’s not very bright, said this is the easiest way to build popularity,” Jin Shanshan said.

"That's really good," Su Mo said.

To be fair, starting a career through live streaming is completely unreliable. Su Mo vaguely remembered that live streaming platforms were very popular back then, and they seemed to have become even more popular later.

"That's settled then. Those people are very interested in my personal attendants. When are you going to come and take a look? Help me boost my popularity." Gilgamesh hung up the phone.

"Hey—you still haven't said what you're livestreaming?" Su Mo said, but all he heard from the phone was a busy signal.

"Fine, I'll look for it." Su Mo opened the webpage on his phone and tried to search for relevant information. Unexpectedly, a whole bunch of results popped up, the most eye-catching of which was a post titled "A certain streamer earns millions in two months during a live stream."

Upon clicking in, the poster described in great excitement and detail how, on a lonely night, he was browsing on Doumao TV when he stumbled upon a blonde girl's live stream. Out of curiosity and boredom, he clicked in to take a look.

As a result, the poster completely fell for the "Queen Cult" and became a brainless fan. Many people in the comments section mocked the poster, saying that the poster was a loser and that they would wait for this rich and handsome guy to dig out the true face of this woman.

Then...those people also joined the Queen's Cult.

Su Mo couldn't help but laugh as he read on. He refreshed the page and found that the original poster had changed the title to "Long Live the Queen" while the content remained largely the same, with a few more pictures added at the end.

In the picture, Gilgamesh sits in a chair, looking at people—or rather, at the camera—with a domineering queen-like posture. Behind her is a golden halo, from which the Chains of Heaven emerge and wrap around Gilgamesh's slightly raised right hand.

This image is probably a screenshot from a live stream, so it's not very clear, but it perfectly captures Gilgamesh's noble aura.
