Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five

Ron on the other end of the phone did not object to Nadutong's request.

As long as Behemoth remains neutral, withdrawing from the list of insignificant people is of no concern to them.

“Very good, we will keep an eye on your actions, and we are ready to provide support if you need any assistance,” Ron replied.

"Yes, I wish your company a successful operation."

The phone hangs up.

A male voice came from behind Ron: "You really agreed to their demands?"

Ron turned around at the sound of the voice, and upon seeing that it was Gade, who was also a board member, he nodded and replied:

"Well, if they want to take them away, then let them take them. As long as they don't take King Nathan away from us and don't interfere with our operations, I can accept it."

"Will Nadutong...stand neutral?" Gade paused for two seconds before asking the crucial question.

"Besides remaining neutral, do they have any other choice? With Behemoth's powerful military force, even if All-Knowing were to intervene, they might not be able to defeat us."

Ron was very confident, as he had obtained a lot of resources from the board of directors this time.

He stated that the advantage lay with him.

Even Jesus couldn't keep the sacred tree on Nathan Island, he said.

...

P.S.: I pray for everything as usual. Goodnight and sweet dreams to all my godfathers.

Chapter 368 Killing King Nathan? (First Update)

Behemoth was full of confidence, while Nathan Island was filled with worry.

Having found no help from outside, King Nathan could only place his hopes on internal matters. The seven Nathan Guards gathered in the palace, all dressed in loose gray robes.

King Nathan glanced at the people present, then asked, "Where are Elijah and Elena?"

“Elena is still making a final effort, and as for Elijah… he’s communicating with the people at Paradise,” Alfonso replied.

As soon as he finished speaking, the space not far away distorted, and a woman with silver-white hair and outstanding appearance appeared out of thin air in front of everyone.

She is Elena.

Although she was also a member of the Nathan Guard protecting King Nathan, she did not possess the same formidable strength as the others.

Her role is more like that of a socialite, using her body to exchange for resources for Nathan Island.

With her outstanding appearance, she has made many men fall at her feet and willing to do things for her.

However, this time...

Faced with the crisis on Nathan Island, not one of the men who came for her beauty was able to lend a helping hand.

"I'm sorry, my king..."

Facing King Nathan, Elena first sighed, then apologized.

"It's alright, Elena, don't have any more illusions about the people outside the island."

King Nathan said that it is better to rely on oneself than on others. At this stage, all they can do is to integrate all the forces on the island to resist the coming storm.

"Your Majesty, I'm back."

Just as King Nathan was comforting Elena, the space in front of him distorted again, and then Elijah's body appeared inside the palace.

This ability to appear out of thin air in any corner of Nathan Island is a special power bestowed upon them by the Nathan Tree.

"Your Majesty, I have already communicated with them. Apart from us, all the forces on the island that can be called organizations have expressed their support."

Elijah immediately reported to King Nathan about the various forces on the island.

In fact, on Nathan Island, where the strong prey on the weak, there are not only the children of the gods who have completely converted to the sacred tree and King Nathan, but also several smaller forces.

Among the larger ones, there is the "market" in the north of Nathan Island and the "paradise" in the south.

King Nathan rarely interfered with these smaller factions, and these smaller factions also avoided provoking King Nathan.

...

"Apart from the people who believe in you and the divine tree, the people of the market have clearly stated that they do not want to be involved. As for the paradise in the south, those people have not made any statement yet. Their current leader, Upside Down, has one request."

Upon hearing Elijah's reply, King Nathan raised an eyebrow slightly: "What is your request?"

He wants you to meet him at the amusement park alone.

"Oh? Then it seems necessary to go to the amusement park."

Upon hearing this, King Nathan expressed his intention to go to Paradise. At this stage, they must unite all available forces.

King Nathan closed his eyes and then sensed the area on Nathan Island where life was abundant.

"Yes, I see it. A lot of them have gathered in the southern valley..."

She described the paradise, explaining that the ability to actively sense the presence of everyone on the island was a privilege granted to King Nathan by the Nathan Tree.

“Yes, Your Majesty, it is them,” Elijah confirmed.

"You all stay here... I'll be right back." King Nathan left these words behind, and then vanished from the palace.

When she reappeared, she was already in the paradise.

As far as the eye can see, there are many dilapidated shipping containers scattered haphazardly up the surrounding rock walls, arranged according to the terrain.

It's called a paradise, but it actually looks more like a slum.

She scanned the containers around her and finally fixed her gaze on the containers on the second floor.

“Upside Down, I heard you wanted to see me, so here I am…” King Nathan said slowly.

As she spoke, a purple-haired man emerged from the container on the second floor.

He was wearing a brown suit, which made him look somewhat out of place with his surroundings.

"Nice to meet you, upside down."

King Nathan greeted the upside-down figure with a very calm and unpretentious manner, without putting on airs.

"I believe Elijah has conveyed my request. I have granted your wish to see me, so... what is your answer?"

Hearing King Nathan's question, Upside Down merely glanced at King Nathan before countering with a question of his own:

"You mean joining forces with you to fight Behemoth? The key...why?"

“What I love most about being upside down is chaos, and Nathan Island is about to face the greatest chaos yet. Why should I help you?”

"Oh?"

Faced with the upside-down answer, King Nathan seemed to be able to see right through the upside-down man's mind: "So certain?"

"?" The upside-down figure was taken aback by King Nathan's question.

"Compared to what you said, the chaos I see in you is not what I want to see most. What I see in you is... confusion."

"..."

After his thoughts were exposed, the upside-down man fell silent for a moment, then pulled out a dagger and appeared behind King Nathan with a ghostly figure.

The sharp dagger was pressed against King Nathan's throat.

"To be honest, I have no idea whether you are King Nathan, but they all say that King Nathan is everything on Nathan Island."

"So I'm very curious... if you really are everything on Nathan Island, isn't it a bit too hasty to meet me alone so easily?"

Hanging upside down, he evaded the topic of his hesitation, and seeing that he was leaning close to King Nathan's ear, he said:

"I really want to conduct an experiment. If you were truly the king, and I were to cut off your head right now, what would happen?"

"?"

Upon hearing this, King Nathan, who had been quite calm, showed a slight emotional fluctuation.

She gazed at the upside-down face, wondering if the sacred tree within her heart would respond...

According to the prophecy of the sacred tree, the new king who can save Nathan Island... could it be the Hanging Man?

She waited for several seconds, but the divine tree did not give her any response. However, she was not disappointed. She grabbed the upside-down hand and then disappeared into the paradise with a "whoosh".

When the two of them reappeared, they were already at the Nathan Tree.

When he saw this sacred tree, Daodiao was completely dumbfounded.

"Since you want to kill me, then do it here. Go and break off a golden branch. After you become the new king, you will know everything about the king."

King Nathan pointed to the sacred tree not far away and spoke to the upside-down tree.

Hearing King Nathan's words, Upside Down silently swallowed. He had just wanted to scare King Nathan.

Unexpectedly... King Nathan was serious about it!

"I heard that the Golden Branch has already been broken, hasn't it? If you're tired of living, why make me do it? Wouldn't it be better to wait for the assassins to come?"

Chapter 369 Landing on the Island, Is This Still in China? (Second Update)

Faced with the question posed upside down, King Nathan shook his head.

"I don't want to die. I want to win the Golden Bough ceremony and continue living as king, but all of this depends on the outside world not invading Nathan Island..."

“I, King Nathan, lack great strength, but you are different. You are very powerful, I can sense it. In this time of crisis, you may be more suitable to be king than I am…”

Upon hearing King Nathan's reply, Upside Down was taken aback at first, but then realized that King Nathan meant to bring him to the Divine Tree.

This is basically making him take over the mess...

He was simply curious why King Nathan referred to everything on Nathan Island...

This King Nathan is really something else, bullying a Nathan from an outer island and making him take on this mess.

Isn't this bullying honest people?

Hanging upside down indicates that he is absolutely not susceptible to being infected.

"Aren't you afraid that after I become king, I'll give everything to Behemoth? Including this divine tree..."

King Nathan was not surprised at all by what he heard about the upside-down hanging.
