Secret: The years I served as a foreign aid for the Aurora Club
Chapter 576: The Future of Silver City
884
The World looked around and saw that everyone looked as if they had been struck by lightning and had nothing to say, so it spoke in a low voice:
"The Red Angel has his own purpose. Seizing Feysac is the common wish of "him" and my Lord."
It turns out that they are not subordinate to each other... But the "Angel King" who was once under the Creator actually cooperated with Mr. "Fool" in military and war! This is really unexpected. What's more, the "Red Angel" has another title, which is the "God of War"...
As if to confirm everyone's imagination, the "Fool" sitting at the top leisurely said something like a proverb:
“He goes there to bring war upon the earth.”
It seems like a foreshadowing, but also like some kind of already determined future.
Leonard, Alger, and Audrey all felt something vaguely, and along with this name and this title, it seemed as if the smell of gunpowder and war began to spread over the Tarot Club.
Is another war about to begin... Audrey sighed in her heart.
Although the Feysac people had always been the imaginary enemy in Loen's propaganda strategy, and had previously sent airships to bomb Backlund, nearly killing himself, now that the God of War had fallen, Mr. Fool kept his promise to help the people of Silver City and the God-Forsaken Land obtain a safe and fertile new place to live... From a mythological perspective, this was the final retribution for the wicked, and the fulfillment of the promise made by the gods. Although this matter had nothing to do with her, Audrey still sighed softly, unable to control her emotions, and she felt a sense of sadness like a rabbit dying and a fox mourning.
After all, only the upper class and the extraordinary ones can profit from war. For ordinary people, war is nothing but a disaster.
The pain of the collapse of faith and the cruelty of war and death made Audrey feel depressed.
Does this world really have a lasting beautiful and prosperous future?
Do I really have to abandon my persistence and think like Miss Irena, believing that "as long as such a happy and perfect world can exist for one day, I will be lucky"... Whether it is humans, vampires, other races and extraordinary creatures, is it possible to stop the disputes, put aside prejudices and hostility, and live in harmony like in that revelation?
Audrey stopped thinking silently. She already knew the answer, which was to abandon herself and sway like a reed in the wind of the gods.
If God gives us joy, we should sing; if God gives us suffering, we should accept it.
Do gods really have feelings of love and respect for humans?
God's position seemed to be similar to that of other gods, but he required more in terms of faith, and the establishment of heaven depended entirely on His will - thinking of this, Audrey suddenly remembered one thing, that is, she was attracted to the other party's teachings because it was the first time she saw a god who promised to enter heaven during her lifetime, rather than praying devoutly, not doing evil, enduring pain and suffering, and waiting for happiness after death.
"In fact, I may have made a choice..."
Audrey felt a little sad for a moment:
“Instead of standing firm in resistance, I was searching for the truth and reliability of God’s promises, which in itself was a choice.”
Whether she was reading the Bible, asking the priest who was responsible for interpreting the scriptures, or talking with Ms. Irene, Audrey had only one goal, which was to prove that God was trustworthy and that He could and was willing to bring the kingdom of heaven.
However, Derrick the Sun was not good at observation and did not notice the different thoughts and ideas of the members. He was not from the Northern Continent and did not understand how powerful and how long the history of the Feysac Empire was, so he did not know why the other companions became mute at this time. He only knew that Mr. Fool was about to fulfill his promise to the Creator. In order to let the people of Silver City and Moon City get a new home, he even killed another god for this!
"I-I don't know. I've never been to the Northern Continent."
His astral body glowed slightly red due to excitement. Derrick looked towards the end of the long table, seeking help and advice from someone familiar:
"Mr. World, do you have any recommended places to live? We are a small group of people, so we only need one or two towns."
"I heard from Mr. 'The Hanged Man' that the residents of the Feysac Empire are also descendants of giants. Are they our compatriots? Then as long as the local people don't drive us away, I believe we won't do anything to them."
It's not just Derrick. All the people in the God-Forsaken Land grew up in city-states with a strong atmosphere of faith, family, and collectivism. They may be good at fighting monsters, protecting, working in a team, and hunting, but they are not good at fighting others - in a sense, they are simple and peace-loving.
The World nodded slightly: "I know."
"You can rest assured. The people of Feysac respect giant bloodline. In other words, the higher the status, the taller the person, and vice versa. You, the residents from the God-Forsaken Land, have inherited the true half-giant bloodline. In addition, Mr. Fool is about to preach in Feysac. In their eyes, you are not only the most orthodox, but you are also all favored by God and top nobles."
"If you choose not to leave the gathering place, I will help you choose a place to stay temporarily. When Feysac converts to my Lord, you can choose to continue living in the gathering place, or move to a place you like."
Thinking of the vast national map with mountains, oceans, lakes, rivers and plains, Derrick felt relieved. He looked forward to communicating with people from the outside world. Even though he knew that not everyone might have good intentions, they all still longed to establish connections.
"Besides that, what else do you need?"
"The Sun" Derrick replied a little embarrassedly:
"Fishing and going out to sea are very interesting. However, during this period, we have also stepped up our study of the outside world. We have visited many factories. Many people hope to become chefs and winemakers, and hope to work in a candy factory in the future..."
But Alger never let them leave the island too far. This was for their safety, and Derrick knew it himself.
"It's all about food..."
After listening to the wishes of the residents of Silver City, an idea suddenly emerged in Klein's mind.
Alger, the Hanged Man, opened his mouth and was about to offer a suggestion, but then he remembered that the other party would soon be moving together, and his expression involuntarily became a little gloomy. The World glanced at him, and then said to Derrick, the Sun:
"Feysac is rich in strong liquor and candy. You will have many opportunities to pursue the career you want in the future."
"Of course, the premise is that you must let the residents master the common language of the Northern Continent as soon as possible. On this basis, Feysac, Loen, Ancient Feysac, and Dutan can also be put on the agenda."
The Hanged Man regrouped and offered another suggestion:
"In the future, you can also try to apply for public positions in the city and be responsible for handling extraordinary events."
Although the Rhoside Archipelago and the "Sea God" Church obtained a batch of Beyonder traits and corresponding potion formulas from Silver City and Moon City, they could not cultivate enough Beyonders in a short period of time. Sequence 9 was relatively okay. They selected people with good mental, spiritual and physical health to take potions. The probability of losing control and going crazy was actually very small. Going higher, the role-playing might not be successful, and role-playing also takes time.
In this case, as long as the residents of Silver City can become a member of the official power, they should not have to worry about losing their jobs afterwards.
If they continued to develop in the archipelago, Silver City would have to worry about limited jobs, but if they were to preach in Feysac, even if they counted all the 20,000 people in the God-Forsaken Land, it would still be too few, and there would be no unemployment at all.
Klein quite agreed with this suggestion.
At this time, Cattleya, the Hermit, glanced at Miss Justice and said to Derrick, the Sun:
"You should have a large amount of liquid funds now. You can try to save them for future mines, spice estates, and plantations, and buy fertile land and productive forests. If Feysac's regime and beliefs change and the country becomes chaotic, these properties will become cheap, and a large number of foreigners will choose to sell them, while hard currencies such as gold will be in high demand."
The divine envoy named Danitz recently bought a spice manor... Derrick recalled what he had heard before, and suddenly he understood.
"In addition, you should try your best to investigate the places to live in Feysac and choose the one that suits you best..."
Klein coughed in his heart. He had originally wanted to use divination to decide directly. Of course, if the Forsaken Land of Gods had its own goals, he wouldn't mind fulfilling those wishes.
The Sun Derrick was stunned when he heard this, and quickly raised his hand and said:
"Sorry, I need to write down what I just said."
After Derrick materialized a pen and paper and wrote down the previous suggestions, Audrey "Justice", Emlyn "Moon", Leonard "Star" and other members of the Tarot Club gave their own ideas one after another and refuted each other's immature and unrealistic suggestions.
This lively scene lasted for nearly two quarters of an hour before it ended. Derrick, the "Sun", looked at the stack of papers in front of him that was neither thick nor thin, and smiled uncontrollably.
He seemed to have seen the bright future of Silver City.
Derrick stood up and bowed to everyone:
"Thank you, everyone! Thank you, Mr. World. I will tell the Chief and the High Priest about this news. Praise Mr. Fool!"
Seeing that Derrick's conversation with "The World" was over, Alger couldn't help it.
If Derrick and the people of the God-Forsaken Land were to move to Feysac immediately, then all his previous preparations would be in vain, and he didn’t know how much reward he could get for his current efforts. He had to report and settle the accounts now. But he didn’t dare to report the situation directly to Mr. Fool without anyone asking, nor did he want to talk to the World rashly, so he chose to say to Derrick:
"Since you will be moving soon, there is no need to build a settlement in the Rorsted Archipelago." "You can also postpone accepting commissions as a mercenary team. You can consider having some more formal jobs."
Derrick nodded and was about to speak when he found that Mr. Fool was already looking at them.
Klein didn't say anything. He looked at Alger and didn't say anything. He knew what Alger was worried about. Klein had to admit that in the beginning, he did bite the bullet and risk his life to bring 5,000 people to settle on the sea. Alger and these people were almost completely unaware of the unpleasantness between him and the God of Thunder. It could be said that they were like blind men walking on the edge of a deep pool in the middle of the night.
Now that they had suddenly gained this unexpected surprise of Feysac, they would of course have to be relocated here immediately, and the Church of Poseidon would also have to move and re-establish its position. After all, Feysac also had the Middle Sea and the North Sea.
But as a Fool he cannot speak so clearly, and the World cannot say so many words at once.
We can only hope that Mr. “The Hanged Man” will figure it out himself.
Under his gaze, Alger couldn't help but shrink back in fear, and he trembled as if his little trick had been discovered. But at the same time, as a shrewd "Hanged Man", he keenly discovered that there was no sense of oppression in the gaze directed at him.
If Mr. Fool was unhappy with his behavior, then for a being like “him”, just a glance could make him lose control or even go crazy… Thinking of this, Alger understood something. He raised his head with trepidation, mustered up the courage to lower his head and said:
"Dear Mr. Fool, the first edition of Poseidon's holy book has been compiled."
"The people in the God-Forsaken Land have also been settled. We have established preliminary trade, and we have done our best to meet their living needs."
When facing a leader, especially a gentle and reasonable leader like Mr. Fool, don't rush to express your needs. Just say what you have done, and then wait for the other party to have a change of heart because of your achievements!
Very good, Mr. Hanged Man, you have figured it out again... Klein's eyes were filled with relief, and he spoke concisely:
"The Sea God Church will also move together."
As expected! When we arrive in Feysac, the Sea God will become the subordinate god of The Fool, and a proper god, and my status will be... But wouldn't all my management in the Rorsted Archipelago during this period be in vain?
After the excitement, "The Hanged Man" Alger sighed in his heart. He used his power to help some poor children and orphans, under the pretext of cultivating their faith from an early age. It was also a way for Alger to make up for his regrets in his childhood.
Now that the Seagod Church was going to relocate, those children would definitely... But of course he knew that only by going to the land of Feysac could he gain greater development and more power, so he could comfort himself in his heart: after all, those children only came because he gave them food, he did not suffer any loss, and they were not considered pious.
At that time, let all the people including the Church of Poseidon pray to me together, and then I will fulfill their wish to "leave". In this way, I can probably save more than 30,000 people, which is considered a utopia. A city with 30,000 people is not small nowadays. There are two cities with more than 60,000 believers. Although not many, it is much more convenient to preach... Klein didn't know what Alger was thinking. He thought that he had been making promises to Alger with the "Scepter of Poseidon" until now, and it was time for him to take a bite.
The Fool took one last look at Alger and said meaningfully:
"You did well."
With such hints, Klein believed that Alger must have understood. He could tell by looking at the other party's astral body also turning red.
"Besides that, there is another task for you."
Klein looked at Derrick again: "Establish a church system, compile holy scriptures, and spread my name in Feysac."
Derrick and Alger accepted the task with serious expressions.
After discussing matters related to Silver City and Moon City, Audrey the Justice sighed, looked around with mixed feelings and said:
"Everyone, I have something to say as well."
"My family sent me to Intis in order to save me from disasters and wars, so I naturally joined the Psychological Alchemy Society of Intis... This organization was originally a subsidiary of the Dusk Hermits, and now it has become a department of the Creator Church."
Audrey was silent for a few seconds, and finally chose to express her thoughts in front of The Fool:
"Perhaps you don't know, the Creator has another name within the church, which is 'God'. I naturally converted to God, was baptized, and came into contact with their doctrines... God's doctrines were very interesting and tempting to me, because this god promised that people could go to heaven and live a carefree and beautiful life while they were still alive, but the price was that they had to be pious to God."
"Sounds good."
Fors spoke as an outsider: "But it seems that the teachings and promises of the gods are similar."
The gods all have similar promises, and although there are spirits in this world, for such a long time there don’t seem to be many cases of “the deceased coming from the kingdom of God to tell the living about the afterlife”. Faith is now more like a custom, a characteristic and tradition of a region, and not many people really think that the things promised by the gods will come true.
Other people in the Tarot Club had similar ideas. It was not the first time that the Creator's Church preached happiness in life. When they were still the Aurora Society, they would say "If you believe in the real Creator, you can eat big slices of greasy meat every day" when they were preaching in the East District.
It just looks more mysterious and grand now.
The Fool remained silent and did not make any comment.
Audrey couldn't describe the revelation she had received to her friends. After learning the contents of the scriptures, Audrey felt from the bottom of her heart that God seemed to have the ability to establish heaven on earth - although He did not promise the time when heaven would come.
This topic did not receive as widespread a response from the Tarot Club as the previous one, probably because conversion had happened to everyone to varying degrees, and there was really nothing much to say. Even Mr. "Moon", who was the most devout to the Original Ancestor, has now become the demigod Archbishop of the Church of Mother Earth, right?
At this moment, The Fool suddenly spoke:
"Have you made up your mind yet?"
Audrey raised her head reflexively. She thought about it again and again, and finally bit her lips lightly, then stood up and asked seriously:
“Dear Mr. Fool, can God really fulfill His promise? When will He fulfill His promise?”
"How long can His promise last?"
"I - that's why I was shaken, for a world without pain and conflict... If the Kingdom of God is the world I want to pursue, then, then I... then I will choose to follow Him and spend my whole life making the Kingdom of Heaven come to earth."
As smart as she was, she had already seen that the Fool seemed unhappy to see her convert, so after Audrey finished speaking, her heart was pounding.
Everyone was shocked and even Leonard, who had begun to be distracted, was stunned by Audrey's slightly sharp questioning and remarks.
He thought of himself as being pious. He was raised in an orphanage of the Church of Night and grew up listening to mythological stories. But even so, when he realized that God was not merciful, he just cried and silently accepted the reality. He did not choose to question why God was not merciful - because he had no right, and there was no need for God to look down on him, a small mortal.
"Justice" actually... He felt mixed emotions for a moment.
Klein looked deeply at Audrey. He was so quiet that he could even hear her heartbeat. He did not speak for a long time. The exhaustion, helplessness, and sleepiness suddenly surged into his heart again.
“Whenever He wants to.”
Klein felt his head starting to hurt again.

coming!
I was dragged out to eat at noon so I was late. What was particularly funny was that a large group of people were eating together, including five or six of my peers, but the elders only introduced me to each other, saying that this kid was very amazing and had written almost three million words... I have to say that this kind of talent is indeed rare.
