Chapter 229: Chapter 155: Angry yers (Three updates)_2
The majestic woman had not noticed the surrounding spaceships.
She was just intently staring at the ancient device in her hands, sized like a speck of dust, asionally letting out delightful gasps of admiration.
“How beautiful, I never thought you squirrels were hiding something this nice. Squirrel King, why didn’t you offer it to me earlier?”
The Squirrel King inside the cage clenched his teeth, continuously resisting the enchantment of the divine being in front of him.
To ordinary creatures, divine beings are an overwhelming presence.
Even looking at a god, there is a chance of being captured by their charm and subsequently bing a ve to the divine.
Although the deity before them was acknowledged by the Heavenly Taowork, she was definitely not a benevolent god; deception and maniption were her forte.
Once fallen into very, she would certainly use one’s own hands to inflict pain and despair upon the squirrels, dragging them into an even more wretched future.
It had sought death several times, but the divine being used her power to create a cage, making it impossible to die, and forcing it to endlessly endure her temptation.
She also reveled in the process, admiring the copse of the determined, like thest spoonful of pudding on a te, the sweet taste blooming from the despair and pain deep within the soul, indulging in it, unable to stop.<div>
She hade here by chance, intending to report the losses to the Heavenly Taowork, when she happened to see the device in the spatial fold and the unconscious Squirrel King.
She liked both of these things and so decided to stay here a bit longer, to thoroughly y with this ce.
Only after she had her fill did she notice therge number of spaceships surrounding her.
She didn’t know what these spaceships were doing, but she still waved her hand in a seemingly friendly manner, hiding her deep and inexhaustible sinister thoughts behind a facade of goodwill.
Looking at the female figure, the yers’ exmations never stopped.
[So huge…]
[Really, so big…]
[To see a woman sorge, am I really allowed to look for free? No, I paid for this.]
[My goodness, I’ve once again realized the artistic foundation of Fang Cheng Studio. Which grand artist are they? How can they create such wonderful things?]
[My gaze has been taken by her, and now I no longer feel joy or sorrow in this life.]
Xiemen Waidao also looked for a while, and then decisively said to Alpha, “Help me trante. May I ask, can you release that rather pitiful little squirrel?”
Alpha immediately transmitted the information, and the enormous deity received the message from Alpha in that moment, her face showing a proper and gentle smile.
She sensed that the little ones before her were envoys of an Outer God, but that Outer God didn’t seem to be anything special.
Their use of power was somewhat clever, but that was all, she didn’t sense anything particrly strong about them.
An Outer God who wasn’t very powerful could probably be persuaded to give something in return, for the courtesy ofing here.
Although she still didn’t know where this Outer God was, she could make full use of these little ones before her, to serve as an appetizer.
So, she smiled gently, nced at the Squirrel King who was covering his head and desperately resisting her, and said, “I’m sorry, I’m helping it heal. If I let it out, it will surely die.”
“I see, then what can be done to save it?” Xiemen Waidao continued to ask.
“What to do…” she mused, “Ah, I have an idea.”<div>
As the delegate appointed by the Heavenly Taowork council to this ce, she had another task, which was to restore the coverage of the Heavenly Taowork as much as possible, or to eradicate the Shadows.
However, both tasks would consume her mana, and while the council wouldpensate her, those were barely enough to break even, not allowing for anything extra.
But these envoys before her seemed quite powerful and exploitable.
So, she pointed to the Shadows on the outskirts and said, “Eliminate those Shadows, and I can focus more energy on helping this poor little squirrel.”<div>
“A world quest, huh… understood. But what’s the extra reward?”
“Reward?”
The Gods furrowed their brows, their fondness for these Angel Envoys waning by the moment.
They actually expected a reward for serving the Gods.
Indeed, some powerful races deserved rewards, but it was their “strength,” not their “service,” that merited these prizes.
For the weaker, fringe races, even Gods’ nces were more than enough for them to be grateful; the Gods didn’t even need these inferior races’ faith, lest it taint their own divinity.
However, these Envoys seemed both foolish and greedy, so why not just promise them a reward and deceive them?
So, He pointed to the ancient device in His hand and said, “This, if you can help me expand a space one light-year across and clear out the corresponding Shadows, then I might consider giving this to you. In addition, I will bestow some blessings upon you to improve your living conditions.”
“Deal!”
Excited by the activation of the main quest, the yers immediately sprang into action, following the God’s orders to begin the game.
A light-year is approximately ny-five trillion kilometers—a truly vast astronomical number—but for yers with spaceships, it was not so difficult.
Spaceships burning with Mana could use spatial folding to break through the speed of light barrier. While the distance of a light-year was long, it wasn’t insurmountable, and they could stillplete it.
Their weapons were somewhat weak, but the yers had the advantage of numbers. Tens of thousands of yers began piloting their spaceships, tirelessly clearing the Shadows and constantly self-destructing due to the Shadows’ corrosion, taking nearby Shadows with them.<div>
Thisrge-scale task quickly spread among yer groups. No one would believe that an apparently gentle, kind, and attractive older sister figure was a viin. Each yer took thisrge task as a part of the main storyline and began ceaselessly clearing the area of everything.
Finally, after two days of arduousbat, the designated area’s Shadows were cleared.
The weary yers didn’t have time to cheer before they piloted their spaceships back to the designated location.
Feeling the disappearance of Shadows within the designated area, the God nodded in satisfaction and began calcting how much favor He could gain from the council.
These Angel Envoys were indeed useful, and if possible, He really wanted to use them repeatedly.
The surrounding yers converged, eyeing the ancient device in God’s hand as well as the copsing Squirrel King He held.
The God didn’t speak, only smiling.
The yers didn’t speak either, just watching Him.
Finally, a yer broke the silence, having Alpha convey his message: “Um… could you hand over the instrument now?”
“What instrument?”
“The ancient device you promised earlier?”
“When did we agree on that?”
“…You’re not thinking of reneging on the deal, are you?”<div>
“What if I say yes? What will you do then?”
The shameless reply left the yers at a loss for words.
Then came the anger!
This was the first time they had encountered such a shameless NPC, one who would go back on their word at thest moment.
And from His demeanor, it was clear that He had intended to make fools of them from the start, making the yers even more intolerant.
We cannot suffer this indignity! We’ve paid money!
No one knew who started it, but the first wave of attacks came swiftly, with a barrage ofsers targeting the enemy’s weak spots. However, the feeble assaults only made the God yawn.
Such is the fate of weak races.
The firepower of the spaceships wasn’t enough to injure Him, and in His eyes, missiles were mere grand fireworks. Facing the yers’ all-out assault, the God simply waved His hand indifferently, taking the ancient device and the Squirrel King with Him.
“Thank you for your help, goodbye.”
Hearing His insolent parting words, the yers, this time, were truly enraged!
