There was a slight commotion at the scene. That's right. Currently, there were many Syros civilians surrounding the plaza. Even though it seemed a little dangerous with a dragon around, there was nowhere for them to run, so they might as well check out the situation.
After arriving at the plaza, they realized that the situation was worse than they had imagined because they hadn't received the news that the thermal furnace could not be repaired. Even though they knew that the thermal furnace was damaged, the patriarch said that he was trying his best to repair it. But now, three days had passed and they received the news that the thermal furnace could not be repaired. This left them in despair.
Dilsmo had no choice but to announce this matter at this time. The failure to repair the thermal furnace had plunged the entire city into a crisis. Of course, this matter couldn't be hidden, and there was no need to hide it. So, he took this opportunity to announce this matter to everyone.
Everyone could imagine the consequences of the thermal furnace's damage. It could be said to be a crisis of extinction. Even though they knew that there were many small villages on the continent that could survive without a thermal furnace, the problem was that those were only small villages. Could a city survive like that? Obviously not. Without the thermal furnace, there wouldn't be enough resources to support their lives. More than 90% of the people in the city would die, and the rest … might not even survive.
At this time, Li Huailin's appearance ignited a glimmer of hope. According to the legends, every time such a crisis happened, there should be a hero who would step forward to save the people. It just so happened that Li Huailin appeared at this time, riding a dragon. Everyone thought that he was a hero. However, the following conversation between him and the patriarch obviously exceeded their expectations. What was even stranger was that the patriarch actually pulled out a person and said that this person was the god they worshipped, the ruler of the temple, Saint Lofrey.
Everyone's first reaction was, of course, disbelief. Are you kidding me? Imagine if someone dragged another person over and told you that this person was their god. How would you feel? You would definitely think that the person was ice in a deep well. But one had to admit that the person Li Huailin dragged out was really similar to the god they believed in. At least in terms of appearance.
Saint Lofrey was different from other gods. His believers were of a specific race, so his descent was relatively frequent. Many people here had seen Saint Ilofrey's descent before. The person Li Huailin had dragged out was wearing armor that was very similar to Saint Ilofrey's. Even if it was a fake, it was still a super high quality replica.
"Nonsense!" Seeing the commoners whispering to each other, Chief Dilsmo snapped to his senses and said to Li Huailin, "How dare you slander our god? Saint Lofrey is the only existence. What are you trying to say?"
Clearly, the other party didn't even care about Saint Elofrey, who had been tossed out by Li Huailin. He had already determined that Saint Elofrey was fake. He just didn't know what Li Huailin was doing and what he meant.
"What do you mean? I'm just being kind. " Li Huailin shrugged. "Isn't this your Holy Lord Elofrey? Do you have something to ask of him? I'm here to deliver it to you. You can beg for it now. "
"Despicable bastard!" Dilsmo was now completely enraged. His name had turned red. To him, Li Huailin had to have been sent by the enemy, so of course he was his enemy. "We don't welcome you here. Take you and your fake and leave!"
"Huh? You people are really funny. You were the one who said you wanted to find Saint Elofrey. You're not happy that I've delivered it to you. " Li Huailin said as he took a step forward. Seeing Li Huailin move forward, Dilsmo was so scared that he took a step back.
He was worried that Li Huailin would attack him, but Li Huailin didn't care. He kicked Saint Elofrey on the ground and said with a smile, "Saint Elofrey, look. Even your believers don't recognize you. It's really pitiful to be a god like you."
Saint Elofrey was indeed awake, but he didn't say anything. He just lay on the ground and pretended to be dead. Of course, he was extremely angry, but he couldn't do anything about it. He couldn't move his body at all.
Li Huailin's behavior made everyone even more confused. If Li Huailin had found someone to impersonate their god to humiliate them, it would be understandable. But the guy on the ground didn't seem to be on the same side as Li Huailin. They couldn't understand the relationship between the two. So what was going on?
"Who are you? Which god sent you? "Dilsmo thought for a moment, then stepped forward and asked. To him, no matter who Li Huailin was, he must have been sent by another god. Dilsmo also wanted to report this matter to Saint Elofrey at the temple and tell him who was preparing to deal with him.
"Which god sent you?" Li Huailin was taken aback. Then, he suddenly understood why Dilsmo would ask such a question. He couldn't help but laugh. "Are you planning to report to the temple and let your god deal with me? You guys are really funny. I told you, isn't your god right in front of you now? "
Seeing that Dilsmo still had a look of disbelief on his face, Li Huailin continued, "Of course you people don't know anything when you stay in such a barren place. The Celestial race's rule has ended … Your so-called god no longer exists … "
"Nonsense!" Dilsmo retorted immediately.
"Facts speak louder than words. Let me give you a simple example. Can your sacrificial offerings still succeed?" Li Huailin shrugged.
Dilsmo suddenly calmed down. Yes, something strange had indeed happened. Previously, when the city exploded, they went to the temple and prayed to their god to help them. Saint Elofrey said that he took good care of these Cyros. Normally, he would help in such a huge disaster. After all, he was a Cyros too. But this time, Saint Elofrey didn't react. Of course, even though there wasn't any reaction, the sacrificial offerings could still be carried out. But from yesterday onwards, the sacrificial ceremony couldn't be carried out anymore.
Yes, the sacrificial offerings to the Celestial race would really disappear. This was different from Earth. Didn't Li Huailin experiment with a lot of fish, fruits, and the like? And now, Saint Elofrey's position had been abolished by Li Huailin. According to them, she had lost her divine position. In this case, the sacrificial offerings couldn't be carried out anymore. The sacrificial offerings could only be placed there and wouldn't disappear. Dilsmo was aware of this.
The Cyros were devout believers. Even though they were in a critical situation, they still had to perform daily prayers. So, the situation with the sacrificial offerings was reported to Dilsmo immediately. Honestly speaking, Dilsmo didn't know what was going on, but he vaguely sensed that the situation wasn't looking good.
"Seems like you guys realized it too." Li Huailin looked at Dilsmo's expression and said, "Yes, the sacrificial offerings can't be carried out. Of course, there's nothing wrong with your side. The main problem is that there's something wrong with the god you believe in. Saint Elofrey's divine position has been taken away, so your sacrificial offerings can't succeed."
"You're talking nonsense!" Dilsmo retorted immediately. But to be honest, he was a little worried that this wasn't the truth. Of course, he wasn't willing to believe it.
"That's why I said you guys don't know anything." Li Huailin shrugged. "Of course, I don't need you guys to know anything. After all, you've all been brainwashed by the Celestials. Do you think I'd want you guys to have the ability to think on your own? Just like now, even if I throw your god in front of you, you won't believe it. The reason is simple. You think your god is great and omnipotent. How can I throw him in front of you like a dead dog? Even if this is the truth, you won't believe it. "
After speaking, Li Huailin looked at Saint Elofrey on the ground and said, "Saint Elofrey, do you understand? The rule of the Celestials is that fragile. These people only believe in an omnipotent existence. Once you guys lose this halo, they won't even acknowledge you as a human. "
Saint Elofrey was still lying on the ground without saying a word. Li Huailin wasn't angry either. He said to the people around him, "How about this? I'm in a good mood today. I've decided to save you guys."
"Huh?" Everyone was taken aback. They really didn't understand what was going on with Li Huailin. Just a moment ago, they seemed to be at each other's throats. Why did he suddenly say he was going to save them?
"Do you guys see that dead dog guy at my feet? Doesn't he look a lot like your God Elofrey? But to you guys, this guy isn't your god at all. Isn't it very hateful for this guy to pretend to be your god? Yeah, I hate this guy too. How about this, each of you give this guy a slap. After that, you've passed the first round of selection and earned the right to be saved by me. Who wants to give it a try? "Li Huailin said with a smile.
"You!" Saint Elofrey couldn't take it anymore. He wanted to stand up. He understood that Li Huailin wasn't looking for any clues at all. He was just humiliating him.
Of course, Saint Elofrey was no match for Li Huailin. With a casual kick, Li Huailin sent Saint Elofrey to the ground again. He then said, "Hurry up. I don't have much time. Think about it."
