Full-time monk: I am the prophet of civilization!

Yes, the enormous Parthenon mountain also disappeared.

Only the city of Athens at the foot of the mountain remained, disheveled in the wind.

Once this major event was announced, it immediately caused a great stir in the international community.

Many forces, including the Holy City, the Intercontinental Magic Association, and the Forbidden Spells Alliance, have sent people to investigate the situation.

The bad news is that the Parthenon has been confirmed to have disappeared.

Even worse news is that even powerful beings like those wielding forbidden spells or archangels might not be able to arrive.

Aside from information obtained from local residents that it was a dark barrier surrounding the temple, no other useful information was found.

In fact, it's no wonder they gained nothing.

After all, no matter how they thought about it, they probably couldn't have imagined that someone could actually move the entire Parthenon mountain away...

Moreover, Lin Fan started by targeting the Evil Spirit Empire's territory, directly severing the Parthenon Temple's connection with the outside world.

In a sense, it is similar to the way the Soul Emperor next door secretly devoured the Spirit Clan and the Stone Clan.

After learning these two pieces of bad news.

Everyone, including Michael of the Holy City, felt a chill in their hearts.

Although Michael did not have a good impression of this restless force at the Parthenon.

However, he also had to admit that it was a force inherited from Athena.

The Parthenon is quite powerful, and its classic healing techniques are renowned worldwide.

Even they encountered this unknown situation, and the entire industry was in turmoil.

Amidst this globally shocking news, the disappearance of the Black Vatican has become less of a focus of attention.

Just as the Holy City, the Intercontinental Magic Association, and others were filled with anxiety...

No one would have imagined that the Xingyi Temple would actually be located in the Taklamakan Desert of the Eastern Huang.

No, it should now be called the Taklamakan Grassland.

More than half a year later, the Western Development Plan has made considerable progress.

(See Chapter 139, Conquests in Various Regions and Development of the West)

Under the leadership of Dean Xiao and the combined efforts of the Xixing Group and Magic Energy Technology,

The East-to-West water diversion project, a vital lifeline flowing upstream, is now largely complete.

As mentioned earlier, Dean Hsiao is skilled in water conservancy formations.

It appears that the water supply for residents during the cold wave was provided by a water conservancy project designed by Dean Hsiao, Professor Kuo, and others.

It's all about supplying water, so what difference does it make where you supply it?

In his previous life, Lin Fan lacked the technology and was unable to bear the enormous energy losses, making it impossible to divert water from the east to the west.

But the situation is different throughout France.

Magic exists in this world, and there are also advanced technologies such as magic energy technology and magic arrays developed by Lin Fan, Professor Guo, Bai Ze, and others.

With the technical support of all parties, and after more than half a year, a long river of life flowing upstream from the East China Sea to the West Desert has been largely completed.

Based on technologies such as magic energy and magic arrays, and powered by a massive amount of pure energy.

They forcefully filtered and purified the seawater, then propelled it towards the western desert.

"Going against the current, no matter how many times I see it, I still think it's a miracle..."

On Mount Parthenon.

Asharuya leaned against the railing, her eyes reflecting the shadow of the river of life, and sighed sincerely.

If it weren't for certain events that gave her some understanding of the western desert of Donghuang.

Even Asha's own reaction was hard to believe.

The place they are in now is the Taklamakan Desert, which is known as a barren land.

The lush green grasslands and the clear, flowing rivers showed no sign of being a desert.

Only the yellow sandstorms beyond the distant forests serve as proof that this place is the Taklamakan Desert.

"Um……"

Norman, the older brother, nodded slightly.

Although he still had some dissatisfaction with Donghuang and Lin Fan, it did not prevent him from acknowledging this remarkable feat.

Just like in the original timeline, they prioritized justice over personal relationships, punishing the Blue Star knights who were forced to restore order.

More than a decade of being a knight has instilled in him a deep-seated sense of justice and selflessness.

"It seems that you have recovered quite a bit in the past two weeks."

Lin Fan's voice was like a gentle spring breeze, coming slowly.

However, in Norman and Azharia's ears...

These gentle words sounded like the whispers of a demon.

"Why are you here?"

Norman immediately drew his knight's sword to slash the magical artifact, and warily shielded his sister Azharia behind him.

"Hehe, this is Donghuang, I can come here whenever I want."

Looking at Norman, who was on guard, and Asha, who was calm behind him, Lin Fan chuckled softly.

"Here..."

Norman was about to say that this was the Parthenon, but upon hearing Lin Fan's words, he had to swallow his words back.

Because he knew that Lin Fan was right.

This guy actually moved the Parthenon Temple, along with the sacred mountain, to the East...

What wonders are yours? If they are built on my land, they are mine.

To some extent, Lin Fan's actions were learned from Gu Laowang.

As for whether it's learning from the ancient kings of the Civilization series, or something else, let's leave that aside.

Even if that weren't the case, Norman didn't have the confidence to tell Lin Fan.

Let's not even talk about how Lin Fan is strong enough to kill them with one palm.

The mere fact that Wen Taizhen had become a traitor to the human race meant that Wen Taizhen's two adopted sons and daughters had no right or confidence to question Lin Fan.

Even many of the knights below are now criticizing them.

That is, the current Temple Mother of the Goddess Temple, Pamis, the Temple Master of the Knight Temple, Hailong, the Hidden Clan's Forbidden Curse, and others are all from the same sect.

Furthermore, Lin Fan and Dong Huang's attitudes are unclear, and many people are unwilling to take responsibility.

Or perhaps they have lost their faith and are drifting aimlessly.

The saintess Azharia and the golden knight Norman ascended to the throne and became the temporary leaders of the Parthenon.

Otherwise, it would be more than just criticism.

Finally, it was Asha's turn to step out from behind Norman and softly break the silence.

"Asha's daughter, a sinner, greets His Majesty Lin Fan."

"His Majesty?"

Lin Fan was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized why Asha Ruya was called that.

Whether it's the Sha'abyss he commands, or the evil spirit Khufu and his pyramids, both demonstrate his identity as an evil emperor.

He shook his head helplessly and said softly.

"I am not His Majesty. You can just call me Lin Fan."

Although Wen Tai was indeed unforgivable, Lin Fan still had a good impression of the brother and sister Asha and Norman.

Just like Xinxia, ​​one cannot choose their birth, but everyone's future belongs to themselves.

As long as one does not follow Wen Tai in committing evil deeds, and is willing to contribute to the development of human civilization.

Lin Fan treated Asha and Norman equally.

Chapter 226 The Recruitment of Parthenon and the Holy Soul

Upon hearing Lin Fan's gentle words, Asha Ruya and Norman were both slightly taken aback.

They actually found Lin Fan quite easy to talk to, and he didn't seem as terrifying as he had been half a month ago...

However, the terrifying imperial aura from half a month ago still left Asha and Norman with lingering fear, and they dared not overstep their bounds.

Azharia cautiously inquired, "I wonder... what brings Lord Lin Fan here to see us?"

Although Asharuya still addressed him with the suffix 'sir'.

But since Asha Ruya had already brought up the important matter of this trip, Lin Fan was too lazy to correct this little thing.

Lin Fan nodded slightly, took out a scepter from his storage space, and slowly handed it to Asha'ruya.

"I would like to ask you to become the first goddess of the Eastern Parthenon Temple."

"Donghuang!?"

Both Asha's and Norman noticed the prefix in Lin Fan's words.

"Yes, Donghuang."

Lin Fan smiled and nodded slightly in affirmation.

"Now that the Parthenon Temple, Mount Parthenon, and you are all within the territory of the Eastern Empire, you naturally belong to the Eastern Empire's forces."

"Don't you think so?"

"you……"

Norman frowned, about to draw his sword and fight to the death to defend the Parthenon, but was stopped by his younger sister.

Looking at Asha's warning gaze, and then at Lin Fan's gentle smile.

Norman felt a sudden weakness, and he withdrew his knight's sword, which he had almost drawn.

Now, just like Asha, he understood Lin Fan's underlying meaning.

Alternatively, they could wholeheartedly acknowledge that the Parthenon Temple had submitted to the Eastern Empire, which would bring joy to both sides and eliminate any worries for either.

They could either refute Lin Fan's claims and deny that the Parthenon Temple belonged to the Eastern Empire.

But as a result, the Parthenon Temple, which is not affiliated with the Eastern Empire, appeared within its territory...

What is this called?

This is an act of invasion and seizure of another country's territory that is extremely heinous!

To deal with such vicious, stubborn, and rebellious terrorists, Donghuang must strike hard!

At that time, the two of them, along with the entire Parthenon, will become dust of history.

After stopping Norman and warning him, Asha's gaze finally fell on the scepter in Lin Fan's hand.

As a saint of the Parthenon, how could she not recognize this scepter?

That was the symbol of the power of the Parthenon goddesses.

Its previous owner was the former goddess, Izusa.

"Lord Lin Fan, what significance do the position of Goddess and the Parthenon Temple hold for you and the Eastern Empire?"

Although Azharia is young, she has grown up through scheming and intrigue with several saintesses.

She already had some idea of ​​what Lin Fan was thinking.

Instead of agreeing directly, he thought he should ask one last time to test the waters.

Anyway, after experiencing what happened half a month ago and having a complete epiphany, she has nothing to be afraid of anymore.

"Didn't you already guess the meaning?"
