Many years have passed, and the prophet Dorennunu still insists on his luxurious and wealthy appearance.
He holds a golden scepter in his hand, adorned with colorful feathers. All ten of his fingers are adorned with gemstones, gold, and pearl rings. Wherever he goes, he shines with golden light, becoming the center of attention.
After the return of the White God, he walks with his head held high.
As a prophet, Dorennunu’s mission is to convey the will of the gods, and his status is also affirmed by the White God. God Yao is the ruler of this world, and the White God is the only subordinate god of God Yao, and one of the only two recognized gods!
In the past thirty years, Dorennunu has not had an easy time.
The lack of response from the gods has caused many people to look down on the prophet. Although they still offer sacrifices to the gods and pray and worship at the temple, their indifference cannot be concealed.
These short-sighted fools!
They have never considered that all the gems and rare items obtained in the north are gifts and guidance from the White God!
Now the gods have returned!
Although the White God seems a bit tired… but that doesn’t matter.
Dorennunu has decided to restore the dignity of the temple.
This shining prophet walks slowly and arrives at the entrance of the temple.
He wants to say something, but when he sees the scene outside, all the words get stuck in his throat for a moment.
Outside the Salt City Temple, there is a dense crowd kneeling.
Among them are the once arrogant slave traders, the self-proclaimed noble Salt Clan, and the scholars, captains, and craftsmen who hold important positions in the citizen council…
They all bow their heads, with offerings to the gods placed in front of them in clay jars and plates. Everyone is silent, afraid of disturbing the sanctity of the temple.
Hmph.
Fickle-minded people.
Dorennunu remains silent.
The people outside who are kneeling and worshiping look at each other, and finally they look at one person.
This person gathers courage and takes two steps forward, with a flattering smile on his face, saying, “Prophet, we are just expressing our respect for the gods and our devotion to God Yao and the White God, nothing more.”
Dorennunu recognizes this merchant.
His name is Shang Ji, the head of the slave traders and the one who led the establishment of the citizen council.
In the current Salt City, Shang Ji can be considered an influential figure. In the past, many people in the council came to the temple just for show. Although they were polite to Dorennunu, it was nothing more than a pretense.
Dorennunu once asked the council to build a circle of side halls outside the temple, just like in Yao City. This would ensure the tranquility of the temple and provide the believers with a more orderly place to worship.
The council said they would do their best to make it happen.
Dorennunu kept urging them, but the council said that they needed to pass a resolution to obtain the corresponding funds. Now, due to various reasons, money is tight and they cannot afford to spend so much.
They gave a symbolic amount of seashells, but it was just a perfunctory gesture.
Dorennunu recorded this incident in detail on paper as a permanent shame, constantly reminding himself.
The construction of the side halls was delayed for ten years.
Dorennunu is well aware that the gods have temporarily left this world, so these people are losing their awe.
Slave traders are just such a group of people, like untamed dogs.
You have to whip them, and then they will wag their tails at you. If you talk to them nicely, they won’t pay any attention to you at all.
Shang Ji cautiously and softly said, “Prophet, the construction of the side halls will begin tonight. I wonder if this will disturb the tranquility of the White God?”
Dorennunu remains expressionless, “The White God is always tolerant of devout and loyal believers.”
“Of course, of course, we are all the most loyal believers of God Yao and the White God.”
Shang Ji echoed.
Dorennunu asked and learned the details.
They did not know that the gods had returned.
The reason is in the sky.
While Dorennunu was praying in the temple, the Dark Sun descended, and the entire Salt City fell into a new round of panic.
Miss Isabella, the apostle who had not been seen for a long time, suddenly appeared. She wielded her divine sword and flew towards the immense Dark Sun.
The seemingly small apostle rushed into the huge Dark Sun, and this black sun that overlooked the ground was killed and forced to retreat, finally fleeing in panic towards the horizon.
Everyone witnessed this scene in the sky, and the shock was indescribable.
The terrifying Dark Sun, which was unmatched and comparable to a god in everyone’s eyes, was like a horse or a deer being chased by a hunter… It had a huge body and power, but it was completely unable to resist the divine power and could only desperately flee.
The astute merchants immediately realized that God Yao was going to reorganize this world!
They hurriedly gathered together and offered their precious treasures, desperately trying to make amends.
Dorennunu wanted to laugh when he heard this.
He remained expressionless, “We cannot understand or speculate about the affairs of the apostle, so there is no need to do so.”
“Yes, yes, Prophet, we understand.”Shang Ji straightened his body, maintaining the posture of a subordinate: “Prophet, is there anything else we can do?”
Dorennunu glanced at him: “Devotion.”
The prophet turned and walked into the temple.
The remaining Shang Ji was left in cold sweat, terrified.
…
In a dark underground cave.
The oil lamp cast a dim light, revealing five figures wrapped in black cloaks.
“Today is the agreed night gathering, and also the founding day of the Dark Sun Church.”
One of them said: “The believers should have gathered by now, offering their faith and loyalty to the Dark Sun…”
“Now it’s all ruined.”
He said somewhat gloomily: “The Apostle has driven the sun away, no one will come anymore.”
“The power of God Yao has exceeded our understanding. The Dark Sun in His presence is nothing more than a stone on His finger, which can be flipped at will…”
Another one said: “The power of the Apostles is terrifying. The Dark Sun must avoid their edge, the Dark Descendants can’t resist at all, what should we do now?”
“…”
Everyone fell silent.
Suddenly, someone suggested: “How about… disbanding?”
The others all cast dissatisfied glances at him.
The proposer retorted: “Then do you think you can fight against the Apostles? This is just the power of one Apostle. Besides Lady Isabella, there is the King of Bones, Mr. Phileas, and the terrifying Blood Knight who is an army by himself… and Lady Sarina who is stationed in the temple of Yao City.”
“Lady Sarina has never made a move, but it is said that she is now the chief Apostle of God Yao.”
“You tell me, how to deal with their pursuit?”
“…”
No one answered.
In the end, they reached a consensus, took off their black robes, blew out the oil lamp, and together destroyed the entire cave. Back in the outside world, they were again followers of the great God Yao, law-abiding good citizens.
The Dark Sun Church was disbanded on its founding day due to Isabella’s pursuit of the Dark Sun.
…
In Yao City.
Scholars looked up at the sky, seeing Isabella driving away the Dark Sun, they were all excited.
“Lady Isabella’s heroic posture is truly elegant.”
“The evil Dark Sun has finally been punished by Lord God Yao. Even the sun in the sky must operate according to the will of Lord God Yao!”
“The power of the gods is not to be challenged.”
“This holy war experience of Lady Isabella must be written into the latest theological scriptures, everyone must know.”
“Our patience and devotion over the past thirty years have won the favor of the Lord God, this is the power of faith, the grace of God!”
“Lady Isabella is as beautiful and dazzling as the sun…”
In the temple, Sarina paced back and forth, observing the outside world through the mirror.
Damn Isabella Seroli, she always knows how to please people!
Her previous cunning and smiles, and her current daze and confusion, are all her tricks.
Why do people always fall for this!
Phileas has been quietly investigating for many years, and he has also explained to the gods, not wanting his efforts to be buried and ignored… but the most noticeable one turned out to be Isabella.
Apart from Lord God, no one here understands the harm and difficulty of the Dark Sun better than herself.
For many years, she has been constantly paying attention to the projection of the Dark Star in the high sky, searching for the traces of the dragon all over the world through the mirror…
Sarina looked at the “Mirror Kingdom”.
“Mirror, mirror, who is this noble lady who is both powerful and beautiful, stands out from the crowd but never fights for merit?”
The female tyrant lifted her chin: “That’s right, it’s me.”
