End of the World: The materials consumed by women are returned ten thousand times.

But right now!
Originally sunny weather!
Suddenly, sand and rocks flew everywhere, and the sky was covered with dark clouds!

A mighty and holy voice, as if coming from the clouds, resounded throughout Fantasy Star City:

"Heretic! I will come in person tomorrow and suppress you!"

"Anyone who is tainted by your evil aura will also be eliminated!"

……

"Oh my god! It's the power of God!"

"No! God is punishing us. The end is coming!"

"Oh God! Please forgive us!"

This is a shocking scene!
This caused everyone in Fantasy Star City to exclaim in surprise!
The people knelt down one after another!
Kowtow and ask God for forgiveness!
Can……

Lin Lang, who was in the center of the storm, smiled coldly:
"Pretend to be a ghost!"

He casually slapped it up to the sky!
Suddenly!

A terrifying aura rose into the sky—

And it continues to expand and expand in the air!

Until it turns into a ball of light as dazzling as the sun!

Dispel all the haze!

The world became clear again!
……

Audrey huddled in Lin Lang's arms, staring blankly at the scene, unable to speak:
"Lin Lang, you..."

The methods displayed by Lin Lang were beyond her understanding!

She felt more and more incredible——

What kind of person is Lin Lang?
Why did you appear here and meet me?

……

This time!

A group of hotel employees ran over!
Their faces were full of worry and fear!
Couldn't help but said:

"Oh my God! How did Audrey and the others offend the people from the Vatican? What should we do?"

"The Holy See has the final say in Fantasy Star City. We are in big trouble now!"

Aunt Maria, who had followed Audrey all the way from the slums to where she is now, was also among the crowd!
She walked up to Audrey, took her hand, and said anxiously:

"My child, we can't afford to offend the power of the Holy See! You and Lin Lang had better go and apologize quickly. Maybe there will be a chance for recovery."

Everyone nodded, and everyone tried to persuade them!

……

Audrey's face gradually turned very pale.

at first!

She just wanted to keep her and Lin Lang's hotel, and all the gold coins that she and Lin Lang had worked so hard to earn!

How could things turn out like this?

She had never expected that—

It was originally just a business choice and competition!
Why did it turn into such a life-and-death war?
……

Audrey held Lin Lang's arm tightly, her palms full of cold sweat.

The fear in her heart spread like a tide -

Having lived in Fantasy Star City for many years, she knew the horror of the Church:
They are the absolute rulers of Fantasy Star City!
Anyone who dares to disobey them will eventually suffer a catastrophic disaster!
She raised her head, her eyes full of anxiety and confusion, and said in a trembling voice:

"Lin Lang, everyone is right. The Holy See is too powerful. Should we...should we think of a way to ease the relationship?"

Can!
Lin Lang looked around and saw that everyone was worried, but he still had a calm smile on his face.

He patted Audrey's hand gently, and then said to everyone:

"Everyone!"

The noisy sound suddenly died down, and everyone looked at him eagerly.

"The Vatican has made such an unreasonable request. If we compromise today, there will be no peace in the future."

Lin Lang spoke calmly.

"Since I dare to take action, I am fully confident that I can handle everything that follows. I have the ability to protect our hotel and everyone."

"But……"

A young waiter couldn't help but speak, his face still full of worry.

Lin Lang interrupted him:
"It's nothing to worry about. Just work as usual and live your life in peace. If they come to cause trouble again, I will make sure they never come back."

His tone was firm.

Everyone looked at each other. Although they were still nervous, they didn't know what to say when they saw Lin Lang's confident look.

Everyone slowly dispersed and returned to their work places.

But everyone is still praying silently in their hearts, hoping that this storm can be settled as soon as possible.

……

the next day!
The sun shines on Fantasy Star City as usual.

But this seemingly peaceful day was filled with a subdued and tense atmosphere——

The Audrey Hotel, which used to be crowded with guests!
But today it’s so deserted!
Even the passers-by at the door were in a hurry and didn't dare to stop!
Not to mention coming in to consume!
……

suddenly!

A heavy and orderly sound of footsteps came from afar, breaking the tranquility of the street.

I saw a group of Vatican officials in black robes walking towards the hotel with stiff steps.

In front of them!

A tall figure in a red cloak is particularly eye-catching——

The red cloak fluttered gently in the breeze, like a burning flame, exuding a terrifying aura of majesty!

The streets exploded instantly!

People were talking to each other, and the discussion was going on:
"Look, it's people from the Vatican. This time, a cardinal has come!"

"Oh my god, this is incredible! The cardinal's status in the Vatican is second only to the Pope, and his power is unfathomable!"

"I heard that only those who have made great military achievements and possess extraordinary strength are qualified to wear the red cloak. Something big is going to happen today!"

……

The hotel staff looked through the window and saw this scene, their faces turned pale with fear.

Some people's legs became weak and they almost couldn't stand, while others just collapsed on the ground, their eyes filled with despair!
Aunt Maria clasped her hands together and gestured in front of her chest, muttering something as if she was praying to God.

Audrey was also standing in front of the window, her face was as pale as paper, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost dug into her palms, and her heart was filled with fear and helplessness.

Although Lin Lang repelled the Vatican's minions yesterday, she couldn't imagine what the consequences would be when facing such a powerful cardinal.

She was extremely anxious and looked everywhere for Lin Lang.

But found out!
Lin Lang had already stood alone at the door of the hotel!

Quietly waiting for the arrival of the Vatican!
……

The cardinal stood at the door of the hotel, looking down at Lin Lang with disdain in his eyes.

He raised his chin slightly and said in a mocking tone:

"Humph, are you the oriental kid who dared to go against the Vatican? Judging from your appearance, you are just an ignorant brat. Today, I will make you pay a heavy price for your foolish behavior and let you know how terrible it is to offend the Vatican."

As he spoke, he slowly raised his hand!

The red cloak fluttered in the wind, and the air around him seemed to become oppressive because of his actions.

……

【Pierre】

[Combat Power: SSS+]

[Superpower: God's punishment (level 10)]

Lin Lang had a calm expression as he listened quietly to the cardinal's harsh words, a faint sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth.

He took a step forward slowly, his aura rising suddenly:
"You want me to pay the price?"

……

"Heretic! You're seeking death!"

The cardinal was completely enraged by Lin Lang's attitude!
He shouted!
In an instant!
A strong red light surrounded his body, with runes flickering faintly in the light, obviously he was casting some powerful spell.

As the spell was cast, the ground began to tremble slightly, and the surrounding air became scorching hot, as if it was about to burn!
Not long!
Huge fireballs appeared out of nowhere and fell from the sky like meteors!
Make a rumbling sound!

Smash the Audrey Hotel!

"My God!"

The people in the hotel looked up at all this and felt that the end of the world had come!
……

however!
Lin Lang showed no fear at all.

He stretched out his hand!

A huge aura shield was released to protect the Audrey Hotel!

Boom boom boom!
All the fireballs fell on the gas mask!
Flames splash!

The hotel was safe and sound!

……

Then!

A cold light flashed in Lin Lang's eyes, and his figure disappeared from the spot in an instant like a ghost!
When he appeared again, he was already in front of the cardinal.

"what?!"

The cardinal didn't have time to react!
Lin Lang's fist blasted out like a cannonball!

With the sound of whistling wind, it hit the cardinal's chest heavily.

boom!
A dull thud!

"what!"

The cardinal's body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string!

Draw an arc in the air!
Finally it fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust!
……

"what!"

The surrounding Vatican officials were stunned when they saw this!

They could never have imagined that—

A cardinal with a respected and powerful position in the Vatican!

He was beaten so badly by just one punch from Lin Lang!

The cardinal struggled to get up from the ground, with a trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of shock and anger:
"Heretic! Today the gates of hell will open to you! Thunder from the sky will descend..."

He still wants to continue attacking!
But Lin Lang didn't give him a chance——

Lin Lang flashed and rushed forward again!

He launched a violent fist-and-foot attack on the cardinal:
"Heretical, huh?"

"Heavenly thunder, huh?"

"The Holy See, right?"

"Awesome, right?"

……

His fists and kicks fell like raindrops!
Each blow was so powerful that the cardinal was left with no chance of fighting back.

"Ah! Ahhh! Ahhh—"

The cardinal could only use his arms to protect his head and kept retreating under Lin Lang's attack!

There were bruises and scars all over his body.

"This...how is this possible!"

Among the crowd of onlookers, some people couldn't help but exclaim.

Everyone stared with wide eyes at the incredible scene before them.

They originally thought that

Once the cardinal makes a move, Lin Lang will be powerless to resist!
Unexpectedly!

The situation was completely reversed, and the cardinal was beaten like a stray dog ​​by Lin Lang!
……

Under Lin Lang's continuous attack!
The cardinal finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell to his knees with a plop.

His red cape was already tattered, his hair was disheveled, and his face was full of pain and humiliation: "Stop, stop hitting me! Please!"

……

Lin Lang stood in front of him, looked at him coldly, and said:

"Remember, don't mess with me and my people again, otherwise, it won't be so easy next time."

The whole place was dead silent!
Everyone was shocked speechless by Lin Lang's terrifying strength!
……

Seeing the cardinal being defeated miserably, the people of the Vatican fled away in shame like frightened birds!

But how could they swallow this!
Soon he made a cruel statement -

Until Lin Lang surrenders to the Holy See, the supply of survival supplies to the people in the city will be stopped.

……

As soon as this news comes out!
Fantasy Star City fell into chaos in an instant!
The supply of food, water and other materials that people depend on for survival is in jeopardy!

Panic spreads like a virus.

The people who were unaware of the truth, under the malicious guidance of the Vatican, vented their anger on Lin Lang.

They believed that it was Lin Lang's reckless behavior that led to the current predicament!

So they joined the ranks of boycotting the Audrey Hotel.

The hotel entrance, which was once bustling with activity, is now deserted. Occasionally, a few people pass by and they just point at the hotel with disgust on their faces.

Inside the hotel, the situation was equally bad.

Employees live in fear every day, worrying that they will be targeted by the Vatican for working at the hotel.

Before long, resignation letters began to arrive at Audrey like snowflakes:

Some employees looked guilty and expressed their helplessness to Audrey.

Some were so frightened that their voices trembled, and they just wanted to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible!

……

Watching the partners who once fought side by side with me leave one by one!

Audrey's eyes were red and tears were welling up in them. She felt so aggrieved and sad but had no one to vent.

She found Lin Lang and said in a crying voice:

"Lin Lang, what should we do now? Everyone... has left. The Church is too powerful. We can only obey..."

Lin Lang reached out and gently wiped away the tears from Audrey's eyes, but his eyes turned cold:
"You can't beat him, so you just start to play this game, right?"

"Row!"

"Then I'll have some fun with them."

……

Audrey is anxious!
But she did not sit still and wait for Lin Lang to do everything——

The Audrey Hotel belongs to Lin Lang, but it is also hers!

She must contribute her part!
then!

She also started her own actions -

She understands!
To resolve this crisis, we must first let the people know the truth and expose the lies of the Vatican!

So she made some flyers!
He described in detail how the Vatican greedily coveted his property, how it unreasonably demanded a share of the profits, and how he was forced to resist!
Then ask trustworthy people to help you distribute the goods door to door!
at the same time!

Audrey used the connections she had accumulated in the business world to unite some businessmen with a sense of justice.

These businessmen are fed up with the economic exploitation of the Holy See on a daily basis!

Now that someone is taking the lead, they are responding one after another.

Everyone discussed and decided to secretly prepare supplies to break the Vatican's blockade of supplies...

……

Audrey ran around, arranging these matters in an orderly manner!

Lin Lang seemed much more relaxed.

All I do every day is eat, drink and sleep!

……

this day!
Another large group of people ran to the entrance of the Audrey Hotel and demanded that Lin Lang surrender to the Vatican!

Audrey rushed out in a hurry!

Want to calm everyone's emotions!
Can!
But Lin Lang pulled her behind him!

then!

He waved his hand casually and took out a small amount of supplies from his storage space.

Suddenly!

In the garden at the entrance of the hotel!
A large amount of supplies appeared out of nowhere!

That scene was extremely spectacular.

Food and water!

There are also various daily necessities!
Everything!

Next to these supplies, there is a pile of gold coins as big as a mountain!
Under the sunshine!
The gold coins sparkled with such dazzling light that it made people's eyes dizzy.

……

The originally excited crowd suddenly quieted down.

Lin Lang stood in front of this spectacular scene, looking around calmly.

Then!

He had someone hang up a reward notice, which read:

Kill the black-robed members of the Vatican and receive 100,000 gold coins!

Five hundred thousand blue-clad believers!
One million white-robed messengers!

Cardinal ten million!

……

Once the news spread, the entire Fantasy Star City was shocked.

The people, who were originally full of resentment towards Lin Lang and deceived by the Vatican, suddenly changed their attitude.

Their eyes changed from initial anger and dissatisfaction!

Turned into shock and greed!

You know, in Fantasy Star City, these gold coins are enough to change the fate of a person or even a family!

Some brave people who lived in poverty began to stir.

Anyway, since the Holy See has cut off their supply of materials, their lives are already extremely difficult!
It’s better to give it a try!
Maybe you can get that huge reward and live a good life from now on.

then!

Some people began to secretly pay attention to the whereabouts of the members of the Holy See, ready to take action when the opportunity arises...

……

And Audrey gathered those small forces that had been oppressed by the Holy See!
I also saw hope at this time!

They gathered together to discuss how to unite and fight against the Holy See!
Not only can you get rid of harm for the people, but you can also get generous rewards.

All of a sudden!

The streets and alleys of Fantasy Star City are filled with a tense and exciting atmosphere!
People’s topic is no longer about accusations against Lin Lang, but how to earn the tempting bounty!
……

The high-ranking officials of the Holy See were all stunned when they learned about Lin Lang's astonishing display of wealth and the bounty order.

They sat around the huge conference table, looking at each other, and there was dead silence in the conference room.

Before, they relied on their absolute dominance in Fantasy Star City to act recklessly!

I never thought I would meet such a tough opponent like Lin Lang!
Unexpectedly!

He possessed such enormous wealth that it was enough to compete with the entire Vatican.

"This... How is this possible? How can a person be so wealthy?!"

A cardinal stood up suddenly, put his hands on the table, and his voice trembled with shock.

"What should we do now? If he really encourages the people to attack us, our forces in Phantom Star City may..."

Another bishop said worriedly, his voice becoming smaller and smaller, his face full of worry.

Everyone fell into deep thought, and for a moment they could not think of a solution.

They knew very well that Lin Lang's current actions had completely disrupted their plans!

As long as Lin Lang is willing, with his wealth and the rebellious sentiment that he has aroused in the hearts of the people, he can even overthrow the Holy See's ruling position in Fantasy Star City in a short period of time.

for a long time!

The Archbishop of the Holy See sighed and spoke helplessly:
"We have no other choice but to ask for help from the headquarters. The headquarters is full of experts and abundant resources. Only if they send stronger people, maybe they can deal with Lin Lang."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Although asking for help from the headquarters means that they are derelict in their duties in Fantasy Star City and may be punished.

But now!
The top priority is to preserve the Holy See's influence in Fantasy Star City.

……

The atmosphere in the Vatican's meeting room was always solemn and depressing.

Everyone was anxiously discussing the crisis brought about by Lin Lang.

suddenly!

A messenger inadvertently glanced at it!
I suddenly caught a glimpse of a vague figure in the dark corner of the meeting room.

His heart skipped a beat!
An ominous premonition came to my mind.

He rubbed his eyes subconsciously and slowly turned his head, trying to see more clearly.

Can!
When he finally saw the figure's face clearly!

His face turned pale in an instant and his eyes widened, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world.

His throat seemed to be stuck by something, and he let out an indistinct scream:

“Ah…Lin…Lin Lang!”

This shout!
Like a bombshell, it instantly quelled the noise in the conference room.

Everyone's eyes were focused on that corner!

Lin Lang was seen standing there quietly with his hands folded across his chest and a faint sneer on his lips.

There was a chilling confidence and calmness in his eyes.

He was wearing a neat suit and looked very tall!
In the dim corner, it was like a demon from the darkness.

……

"You...how did you get in?!"

A cardinal stood up in horror, pointed at Lin Lang, his voice trembling violently.

His body leaned back slightly, as if he wanted to stay away from Lin Lang to avoid the invisible feeling of oppression.

Lin Lang shrugged lightly and took a few steps forward slowly.

Every step he took seemed to be stepping on everyone's heart, making a dull sound:
"There's no place in this world I can't go!"

His voice was deep and powerful, echoing in the empty conference room.

"As long as I want to come here, I can come here naturally."

Everyone in the conference room looked at each other, their hearts filled with fear and confusion.

They couldn't figure out how Lin Lang managed to avoid the heavy guards and quietly enter the heavily guarded meeting room.

"What...what do you want to do here?"

Another bishop asked boldly, although his voice was also shaking unconsciously.

Lin Lang stopped and scanned everyone present with a hawk-like gaze, revealing a hint of disdain:
"I'm here just to tell you to stop struggling in vain."

He spoke word by word!

"Your little tricks are useless to me. If you know what's best for you, give up your control over Phantom Star City. Otherwise..."

He didn't continue, but the threat was self-evident.

After hearing Lin Lang's words, everyone was shocked and angry.

They have been dominating and bullying in Fantasy Star City for many years, so how could they have ever been threatened like this?

however!
Lin Lang's powerful strength and terrifying wealth made them dare not act rashly.

The conference room fell into a dead silence. (End of this chapter)
