Chapter 307: Die first, see you in a hundred years
Just when Dachun and Mary were secretly discussing the Black Iron Guardian, the Black Iron Guardian came over by himself.

Now it was Dachun who was embarrassed: "Hello, Lord Shenzuo."

The Black Iron Guardian sighed, "I know my current situation. The lost divine power cannot be restored in a short time. I think Nan Hill is more suitable than me—"

Damn, you heard my whisper!
Dachun was anxious: "No! Lord Shenzuo, please don't misunderstand--"

The Guardian God waved his hand to interrupt. "Actually, I'm deeply ashamed. It's been nearly a hundred years since Black Iron City has had a young man as outstanding as you. Not only did I fail to train you early on, but I actually dumped all my burdens on you. This battle was also thanks to you and even this little fish. I didn't play the role I should have."

Dachun said anxiously: "No, Master Shenzuo exhausted his strength to bring me back 100 years ago and gave me a huge benefit!"

The Guardian was stunned: "What did you gain?"

Dachun definitely can't say that he will be remembered by future generations, otherwise it will only highlight the fact that the guardian deity is not good enough...

Dachun had no choice but to say, "I have mastered the expert-level space technique. I urgently need to master the space technique now!"

The Guardian Spirit was surprised and said, "Is that so? If that's the case, I can help you gain a deeper understanding."

Dachun was ecstatic: "Please enlighten me, Master of the God Seat!"

The Guardian pointed at the blurry spatial fluctuations emanating from the Bone Dragon's corpse. "I'll help you hold it off. Every moment you hold it off will give you a new understanding. Once you reach Master level, I can use my inherited training skills to elevate you directly to Grandmaster level. Do you know what inherited training is?"

Dachun was delighted and said, "I see, this is a skill only possessed by master craftsmen!"

Shit, as long as you are a Grandmaster, the small vines can drill oil out of the confined space!
The Guardian smiled and said, "Then go ahead."

Then the patron saint said to Mary, "Sister Mary, please evacuate the crowd and keep them away from danger."

Mary was stunned. "This? It's just a normal disappearance of space. There's no danger, right?"

The Guardian Angel said anxiously, "Yes! We have to tell them it's very, very dangerous!"

Mary had no choice but to say, "Okay, Master!"

So he shouted to the cheering crowd around him: "Lord Shenzuo is going to deal with the danger. Everyone, step back, step back, stay away..."

Dachun was also frightened and immediately instructed the fish-man god: "You should also run quickly, the faster the better!"

The Fish God said nothing more: "Wow, I know it's Mida~~"

Seeing the Fish God running away, everyone in the city immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and retreated immediately.

Now only Dachun and the guardian deity were left. Dachun was a little panicked: "Sir, if it's too dangerous..."

The Guardian Angel snorted, "Sister Mary is right. There is no danger at all!"

Dachun was stunned!

The Guardian snorted coldly, "If there's no danger, then you create one. You can't let people spread the word that I didn't do anything, right?"

Dachun shuddered! His behavior didn't quite match the tragic situation of voluntarily giving up his position.
Dachun and the guardian angel came to the edge of the wave, and the guardian angel bloomed a circle of "glass cover" all over his body to cover Dachun.

The surrounding scene was covered in white light.

——System prompt: You feel the impact of strong spatial turbulence, and your expert-level spatial skills have gained a significant improvement in proficiency.

The patron saint spoke: "What do you think of Sister Mary?"

Dachun was stunned for a moment. Could it be that—

But all I could do was reply: "I don't know much, but he's very good to me."

The Guardian Angel said solemnly, "Under the current world system, there are some things I can't say too much about, and I don't even understand them! You must also be careful with her and keep her secret. When you return, you will hand over my godhood to the church and say that I perished while trying to control spatial turbulence."

He knows Mary's background!
Hand over the godhead?

Dachun was shocked: "Lord Shenzuo, are you going to die?"

The Guardian Angel said solemnly, "The throne is like a nail, nailing me firmly to the seat. What problems can it solve? I have received many unresolved wishes from citizens, even questions like why Black Iron City is inferior to Gem City and Silver City. This is the City Lord's business! Is this something I can solve? Therefore, I want to take this opportunity to abdicate and take a walk, but I don't want to fall into hell and become a fallen angel. This is the best time! I will perish and then quietly resurrect as a mortal. I will quietly develop over a hundred years, breaking away from the current system and observing the world. When you return this time, you will meet me a hundred years later. This is a secret between the two of us. Only in this way can I truly understand this world and truly train you to be the most outstanding rookie!"

Holy shit! Is this even possible? It feels like the Guardian Angel is trying to rebel against the system.

Dachun was shocked: "How can I meet you a hundred years from now?"

The Guardian thought for a moment and said, "Just tell me where you need my assistance most?"

Is there any need to think about it?

Dachun blurted out: "Golden Empire, Golden Throne!"

The Guardian Angel was stunned: "You... no, your request is a bit high!"

Dachun was also anxious: "You at least have some knowledge about the guardian deity, right? It's hard to get the Golden Throne in a hundred years, right?"

The Guardian God sighed, "The empire's hierarchy is rigid! It's difficult for a mortal who appears out of nowhere without any wealthy background... Why do you want to go to the Golden Throne?"

It’s not about why you should go, but you’re already here!

Dachun thought about it and decided that perhaps the Guardian God should also know this secret! His way of shifting the blame and making things happen was obviously much more flexible than the rigid and methodical Silver Guardian God who had fallen. He was really capable of getting things done!
"Lord God, I've learned a secret. Part of the souls of the five city beauties, including Fafna, are imprisoned in the Hall of Heroes of the Golden God. I want to save them!" The guardian god was shocked: "I didn't even know this!"

Dachun was proud: "The throne——"

The Guardian interrupted, "Now, don't call me Shenzuo anymore. Just call me—never mind. Naming is so hard. Please help me choose a name that's easy to remember and not the same as that little fish."

What the hell is the name! Since it is the name of the Black Iron Guardian God... Black God, Black Emperor, Black Sky, Black Star, Black Fish, Black Baby, huh?

Dachun asked, "Heiwa, how is it?"

The Guardian Angel said angrily: "Call me Dark Sky!!"

Holy shit! Dachun was shocked: "Isn't this name too crazy?"

The Guardian Angel said, "If you don't act too crazy, how can you stand out in the Golden Empire? There are many variables in a hundred years. I will try my best to appear near the Hall of Heroes. If that doesn't work -"

Damn, it still feels a bit of a pit.

Dachun said hurriedly: "If it really doesn't work, can you find a way to support the Pilipi Chamber of Commerce and the Aolijia Chamber of Commerce?"

The Guardian was stunned: "These two chambers of commerce? They seem to have collapsed."

Dachun didn't actually know the specific intentions of the Shoe Angel and the Wine Angel, so he could only say, "But there must be some descendants left behind, right? You can secretly support them and say that you were sent by Hermes and Bacchus to secretly look after them. But it must be kept secret; no one outside can know about your connection with them."

After all, this was the message that the Wine and Shoes Angel left on the Chamber of Commerce channel. Boss Uriel must have seen it and would definitely pay attention to it.

The Guardian Angel smiled. "You're quite an impressive rookie. You even know the names of Hermes and Bacchus! Very good, but it seems you made a mistake."

Dachun was stunned: "What's wrong?"

The guardian angel laughed: "At this stage, they are still a lean camel bigger than a horse, so why do you say I take care of them? It is obvious that they are the ones who take care of me, hahahaha~~"

Damn you, guardian angel~~~ I’m rooting for you!

……

Damn, he’s a master!!
The Guardian Spirit said with satisfaction, "Very good, Master. Then remember what I said before. We will see each other in a hundred years!"

After saying that, a dazzling white light flashed!

——System prompt: Congratulations! The Black Iron Guardian has successfully promoted your Space Arts to Grandmaster level through the "Inherited Cultivation" of your Space Arts. You will receive achievement rewards: Mana +34, Stamina +34, and Grandmaster-level Space Confrontation Mastery...

——System prompt: Congratulations! ... Your Invisibility has been promoted to Master Level 1, and your Spatial Treasure Hunting has been promoted to Master Level 1...

Grandmaster! Two masters included!

But Dachun was completely immersed in the play by his sudden words "a hundred years later", and his mood was up and down, with no sense of joy at all.

Then Dachun's cockpit machine started jamming and roaring again.

Dachun knew this was another storyline loading up, a record of what he'd done in the past 100 years, right? Another online database modification...

Finally, two minutes later, the white light disappeared.

System prompt: The Iron Guardian has perished, and you have gained the Iron Guardian's godhood. Your Blasphemer Shield has disappeared.

perish……

Ah! The key is that my shield is gone? I'm used to playing high-end games, and suddenly I'm at a low end and I'm totally uncomfortable!
Dachun looked around and saw the church altar.

Mary, Our Lady of Dalma, and the other bishops came forward in panic: "Where is the Lord of the Throne?"

Uh? It's been a hundred years, don't you know?
Dachun surrendered his godhood with a bit of frustration: "I died fighting against the spatial turbulence!"

The bishops were in an uproar!
Mary was the first to react: "My dear bishops, we still have a backup candidate for the throne, the Angel of Nanhill from Plague Island..."

The bishops sighed, "Too weak..."

"Besides, she still has the punishment from a hundred years ago."

"But it's better than nothing, right?"

"Let's temporarily recruit them. The monsters are attacking the city right now. The scale of this attack is far beyond imagination..."

"That's decided for now!"

— Announcement from Black Iron Vanguard City: The Black Iron Guardian has fallen, and Black Iron City will recruit a new one. All citizens must unite and turn their grief and anger into strength...

Dachun was genuinely stunned. Was it decided just like that? It felt a bit like a makeshift meeting, but there was nothing wrong with it…
