Chapter 56 |
"I, Ye Tian, don't believe in evil!" After a long time, the Gold Level simulator Protagonist, with his eyes red, went to sleep. He needed to gather strength and come back to simulate tomorrow!
He refused to believe that he couldn't bypass Count of Moshi Territory!
Every simulation, his starting point was different because every day, his strength was advancing a bit. So, he pumped himself up with motivation and his fighting spirit soared once again.
"Someday, I will see in the simulator, 'You killed Count of Moshi Territory'!"
…
"Sure enough, it's him. Tsk tsk, I guessed it right. Why panic? If you want to leave the Crescent Moon Kingdom, leave as soon as possible, so as not to give him Villain Points. I'll deal with this Count of Moshi Territory."
On the other side, in the group of Protagonists in the Crescent Moon Kingdom, after a period of panic and discussion, the Protagonist named "Lance" finally spoke. It seemed that his words contained a strange charm. As soon as Lance spoke, the emotions of the other Protagonists in the group quickly calmed down.
At the same time, several Dukes-level Villains in the Crescent Moon Kingdom remained relatively silent. They originally thought that Myles and the Holy Level were killed by the Demon God. Now, seeing Su Mo's achievements, they were sure that the dozen or so Protagonists were killed by Su Mo! But at that time, Myles and the Holy Level had clearly blocked the dozen Protagonists.
Connecting the two, these several Silver Level Villains' faces suddenly didn't look good. Because it seemed that Myles and the Holy Level were also killed by Su Mo. He could kill even the Holy Level!
"This matter is not simple, and Count of Moshi Territory is not simple either. But Myles is dead, and he has just turned the tide. We can't deal with him temporarily. Let's not have any other actions for now and see what happens." Several Silver Level Villains quickly made a decision.
In the depths of the Holy See, in a building, Su Mo and the Crescent Moon Queen were surrounded by different magicians, undergoing healing. This was something that had to be done every time a Holy See's Holy Son or Holy Maiden bore the power of the Gods in battle.
Some magicians had relatively single abilities, which were powerful against creatures like demons but somewhat passive against powerful magicians of the same level. Some magicians focused on healing.
The whole healing process lasted for an hour. During this process, Su Mo also saw the excitement on the Villain forum. Completing the first 10 kill, the discussions among the Villains were relatively few. On the Protagonist side, the shock would probably be even greater.
Finally, the healing was over. The real show was about to begin. The Crescent Moon Goddess wanted to meet Su Mo. Su Mo was accompanied by the Crescent Moon Queen into the temple.
At this moment, the temple had already partially recovered some functionality. Su Mo had only damaged it but not completely destroyed it. The divine runes inside had some self-recovery ability, but it took time.
After the battle, the Crescent Moon Goddess had already activated the energy inside, initiating its recovery.
"Mo, I'll be waiting for you outside." This time, after the Crescent Moon Queen escorted Su Mo to the core area, she did not enter.
Su Mo stepped into the core area of the temple. Here, the holy light had already illuminated. Hanging in the mid-air was a crescent moon. The changes were not significant compared to the previous time. As for the internal view, it remained relatively unchanged. After Su Mo entered, the door outside the temple closed. He stood in front of the crescent moon, silently waiting.
Soon, the crescent moon began to glow. In the sky, one light point after another began to fall. These light points, like the glow of fireflies, each gathering into part of a figure. The entire process lasted less than half a minute. On the crescent moon, a woman emitting a faint glow appeared.
This was the Crescent Moon Goddess!
This was not her true form but rather a projection of her power or will. Nevertheless, in the entire Crescent Moon Holy See, few had seen her projection. For the Gods in the Heavenly Realm, although they needed to occasionally display miracles, appearing too frequently in front of people would lose the sense of mystery, adversely affecting the collection of faith.
The Abyss had no such scruples; might made right there. However, demons like the Demon God generally did not show themselves.
After the Crescent Moon Goddess descended, the crescent moon began to descend as well. Soon, it descended in front of Su Mo. The Crescent Moon Goddess sat on the crescent moon, her eyes bright like the moon, luminous but not glaring. A layer of radiance shrouded her face, making it impossible to see her specific appearance.
"Goddess," Su Mo spoke first, nodding slightly.
Although this was a projection, it was the first Heavenly Goddess Su Mo had encountered. In terms of temperament, it was completely different from demonic beings like the Abyss Banshee Lilith. Even though the Crescent Moon Goddess was just a projection, she naturally exuded a sacred aura. Her gaze seemed gentle, making it hard for people to desecrate her presence.
^At the same time, it was impossible not to want to pay respects. If an ordinary person saw her projection, they would probably have already knelt down. Su Mo was not affected by this aura. Su Mo did not look into the eyes of the Crescent Moon Goddess but instead remained calm and composed.
Facing him, the Crescent Moon Goddess raised her gaze. Her eyes lingered on Su Mo's figure, without much oppressive force. Su Mo seemed too calm in her presence. This composure was not deliberately disrespectful or intentionally seeking attention, as one might use to attract the attention of noble daughters in the human world.
Such methods might be effective in dealing with the daughters of nobility, but she was a Goddess. Even if it were an ordinary man, even if that ordinary man was a love expert, in the face of such perfect Goddess projection, they would not remain calm and composed like Su Mo.
On the contrary, the other party will immediately pay homage to her. The sacred aura in her projection was not something that ordinary people could resist. Even if one can resist, with such a perfect Goddess in front of them, even a Demi God can not be as calm and composed as Su Mo.
This was genuine composure. She could even sense that there was not a hint of turbulence in Su Mo's heart.
Su Mo's calm demeanor intrigued the Crescent Moon Goddess. In fact, during their communication in the temple the last time, she had already sensed something. Su Mo's soul was indeed terrifyingly pure. When communicating with her, the power he could convey far exceeded that of any previous Holy Son.
However, Su Mo's soul lacked some of the "enthusiasm" of devout believers. Yes, enthusiasm. For example, when the Crescent Moon Queen communicated with the Crescent Moon Goddess, if the Crescent Moon Goddess responded, the Crescent Moon Queen would experience positive emotions. She might feel happy or slightly excited.
But Su Mo did not. Su Mo was indifferent. His emotions were like calm waters, not to mention during communication, even now, facing her projection, Su Mo's emotions remained calm like calm waters, without a ripple.
If Su Mo were intentionally acting, pretending… in the eyes of the Crescent Moon Goddess, that was almost impossible to fake. It was nearly impossible to deceive her.
Precisely because of this, the Crescent Moon Goddess became curious about Su Mo. For a long time, she hadn't been curious about ordinary people in the World of the Gods. Especially, this ordinary person was a man.
When the power gap was too large, the Crescent Moon Goddess could almost completely see through a person with just a glance. But this did not work on Su Mo. In two communications, two descents of power, she could not learn more about Su Mo. This made her more curious about Su Mo.
Clearly he was just an ordinary human, but he made her see some mystery in him. Of course, as a Goddess, she had considered all possibilities. She had even thought about the possibility of Su Mo being disguised. However, she had descended her power twice for Su Mo; how could he be disguising himself?
A demon disguising? That was impossible! If demons could manipulate the power of the Heavenly Realm, they wouldn't be generally on the defensive against the dominant Heavenly Realm. The two powers were completely different. Moreover, no demon could have a soul as pure as Su Mo's.
In the temple, silence fell. After Su Mo greeted her, he stood there calmly, with a serene expression. The Crescent Moon Goddess observed Su Mo for a while, intending to speak, but suddenly found… She didn't know how to start.
The atmosphere was too quiet. Su Mo remained surprisingly calm. This level of composure from Su Mo was something the Crescent Moon Goddess had never encountered in any believer in the World of the Gods.
Even a Demi God in her presence… wouldn't be this composed!
This left her a bit unsure about the appropriate attitude to converse with Su Mo. If it were an ordinary believer, a lofty Goddess like herself only needed to deliver a divine oracle; no additional words were necessary. The recipient would usually be ecstatic for personally receiving a divine oracle.
Even for non-believers, such as some Demi Gods from other kingdoms, although it was rare to encounter them, when encountered, out of respect for the divine, they would still show deference. Her demeanor would naturally remain lofty.
Gods themselves are inherently lofty.
However, Su Mo's current calmness posed a dilemma for the Crescent Moon Goddess. She faintly felt that if she were to converse with Su Mo with a lofty attitude… Su Mo might just ignore her. But what attitude should she adopt?
Su Mo was clearly just a human; she couldn't possibly use the demeanor she would use with other Gods, right? So, the current Crescent Moon Goddess found herself at a loss for words. This was the first time she had encountered such a situation in the long years of being a Goddess.
She sincerely hoped that Su Mo would take the initiative to show some attitude or demeanor. Yet, Su Mo stood there calmly, with an air of "ladies first," seemingly waiting for her to speak first.
Seeing Su Mo like this, the Crescent Moon Goddess started to feel uneasy!
Could you please say something!
