There's a skeleton dungeon connected to my basement.

Chapter 463, The Grand Celebration
"Did you hear that?"

"The great hero will appear at that celebration!"

"Really?!"

"real!"

"The notices have been posted on the bulletin board!"

"Which hero?"

"Who else is a hero?"

"There is only one hero in this city!"

Will he really show up?

"No, I have to drop everything I'm doing and stay in Hope City!"

Such dialogues continued to occur in the City of Hope during this period.

Xiao Yang is not a true "god" after all.

If we were to use the thoughts and beliefs that converged upon him...

It's not that easy.

"A ceremony!"

A ceremony is the simplest way.

Gathering people together is itself the most primitive ritual.

Thus, the City of Hope, which has never had any official holidays or events, will hold a grand celebration in three days.

On this land, it's not just Xiao Yang who's busy.

In fact, everyone is like this.

There are always endless things to do every day.

The word "celebration" was new, and Xiao Yang even made an appearance.

"Most importantly, Xiao Yang made his appearance."

This news immediately generated a huge response after it was released.

Xiao Yang doesn't like being watched by too many people.

This situation would make him look around at the monkeys being watched in the zoo.

There's no other way; it's a necessary step in forging the Holy Grail.

The festive atmosphere has once again appeared on this decadent land, and those who are most enthusiastic about it are the players of the game who have gone back to the game.

Xiao Yang, this great hero, has a truly remarkable appeal.

Even the stingiest merchants are willing to offer a reasonable discount on this day.

Not to mention the businesses in this city that originally belonged to Xiao Yang and the first batch of survivors he saved.

For the sake of free rye beer, even the most resentful mercenary would raise his glass and shout.

"A great hero!"

The priests of the gods began to give alms of all kinds.

"Coins, holy bread, hymns, tools for work, and training swords."

With joy on their faces, the survivors approached the towering statue in the center of the city one after another.

The same items were placed in front of this huge statue with a comical expression.

"The first harvest of green wheat, homemade rye wine, smoothed fur, and soft cloth woven from spider silk."

Recently, a large group of cave spiders that inhabit a crevice in the ground has been discovered.

Cave spider fabric, which is soft yet resistant to extraordinary elements, has become a new trend.

As a jumble of random things piled up, there was a devout prayer.

"Thanks you!"

"Thanks you!"

The survivors were most loyal to Xiao Yang.

Xiao Yang was the first person to pull them out of this mire.

At the same time, it wasn't just the survivors who came here.

"Snake people, returning farmers, adventurers, and a segment of waning gamers."

A variety of faces arrived here, each carrying different thoughts and ideas.

Accompanying that battle.

No, it was before that battle.

The regulations of the City of Hope have already been changed.

Whatever burdens those displaced people who come here have carried, as long as they do not violate the laws of the City of Hope, their contracts can only last for a maximum of three years.

Three years later.

They will soon regain their freedom.

They could be rehired by the landowner.

However, their safety and rights will be guaranteed through the intervention of the City of Hope.

The emergence of this clause led these farmers to vaguely begin to worship the man who created all of this.

It's quite easy to tell who treats them well.

Xiao Yang genuinely wanted to save everything.

"He thought this way, and he did this way."

Beneath the comical-looking statue.

The things kept piling up.

A round candy rolled off the pile, tumbling along, and was caught by a pair of dirty little hands.

The displaced people who arrived in the City of Hope today.

"We've caught a good day." It's quite nice to be able to enjoy a grand celebration before fully integrating into this terrible world.

Grabbing the dusty candy, the next thing to do was to stuff it into his mouth without a second thought.

This action was noticed by an adult nearby.

A look of fear appeared on his face, and his rough hand slapped out.

"can not eat!"

Not far away, a tall survivor walked step by step.

The candy that had been picked up fell to the ground again.

The hunched farmer quickly pulled the child down to kneel, a fawning smile on his face.

“My envoy, we did not do it on purpose! We did not mean to blaspheme the gods!”

This kind of thing happens.

For a moment, the entire team, whose faces were filled with confusion and fear, stopped in their tracks.

Apart from the nobleman who led the way in wearing old armor, everyone else instinctively lowered their heads.

He was trembling all over and dared not lift his head.

"Like a flock of quails."

In fact, even the nobleman who led the way in wearing old armor wasn't much better off.

Facing the nearby survivor, a burly man who was as tall as a small giant and whose body was covered in tiny scales.

However, things didn't turn out that badly afterward.

With large, fan-like hands, he pulled up the old and young who had knelt down, picked up the dusty candies from the ground, and carefully put them into his pocket.

"This is dirty, you can't eat it!"

A new, colorful fruit candy was handed out.

"Eat this."

"Great heroes protect us."

"Welcome to City of Hope!"

Unexpectedly harmonious.

In fact, these are offerings piled up in front of this tall statue.

Most of them will end up in the hands of residents in the City of Hope who need them.

Xiao Yang did not shy away from this.

Lena also encouraged this to happen.

"We came to this tall statue."

Shout it out.

"A great hero!"

And then it's all set.

The great hero allows you to take advantage of him.

In a corner unnoticed by anyone, the tall, fierce survivor stuffed a dusty candy from his pocket into his mouth.

A look of happiness appeared on his face.

And those lost souls who had just arrived in this world.

Faced with this situation, they looked at each other, somewhat bewildered.

But it must be said that this incident left a very deep impression on them.

Hesitantly, the half-armored knight who was leading the group approached the tall statue.

At first glance, I was captivated by the ferocious and terrifying design of the armor.

"This deity must be an extremely powerful being!"

He sighed as he did so.

Then I noticed that somewhat comical face.

There was a brief silence.

He couldn't help but chuckle.

Laugh like that.

I immediately felt fear.

Such disrespect would have been so great that he feared he would be beaten to death on the spot.

He looked around in alarm, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he realized that no one seemed to have noticed his movements.

Looking at the pile of things in front of me.

Among them were many precious treasures that made his eyes widen in amazement.

I hesitated and thought about it for a long time.

He pulled a tattered cloth bag from his worn-out armor.

"A silver coin."

He thought about his earlier offense.

After gritting his teeth and figuring it out for a while, he finally figured it out.

"A gold coin!"

It hurts so much to spend that money.

I couldn't bear to put this gold coin down.

"Great being, please bless my journey so that it may go smoothly!"

On this special day.

One by one, the figures offered their prayers to Xiao Yang.
