Transcendent Dawn - Chapter 464
Chapter 464: Chapter 0464: Follow-Up (Extra 3200, asking for monthly pass)
Chris Empire, Northern Province.
Wearing a black coat, with a silk hat on his head, Su Lu sat in a coffeehouse, watching the pedestrians on the street, while fiddling with a silver pocket watch in his hand.
After the War of the Misfortune Ruins, he picked up quite a bit.
Among them, the most important one was this marvel known as ‘Reversal Pocket Watch’.
Its ability could slightly warp time and space, forcibly summoning a certain historical illusion for its use.
Naturally, the price it paid was terrifying.
“And … there must be limits, like… it cannot involve deities!”
Su Lu picked up a cup of coffee and took a light sip. He had already conducted a deep study of this marvel.
Deities possess uniqueness and unpredictability… this marvel is not a divine artifact, it has no way to encroach upon the realm of deities.
However, the ability to summon the strike of a sixth-order occupational person is already quite strong.
“After this battle, I must not harbor any luck… Federation, I will not be returning.”
Su Lu made the decision silently.
He didn’t have much attachment within the Federation. Sean could be barely counted as one. During this visit, he found Sean was living well, so there was no need to worry.
Due to his disruption, those three color gold pyramids had sunk to depths that even he could not detect, guarded by powerful forces. Two competitors fell one after another, there wouldn’t be any problems.
Apart from that, Beryl has been brought over, and she was living with Rod and the rest.
“Although their identities have been fabricated, this world does have divination, and even with my concealment, they might still be discovered…”
Su Lu calculated his abilities.
Even if a group of six-order occupational persons were to besiege him, he could calmly transport Rod and the rest to any part of the world, without fear.
The only concern would be some marvels of divine level or even God incarnates!
After this experiment, he realized that the shadow clone was not invincible.
“If we encounter such a situation… we must preemptively dismiss the shadow clone before the attack arrives.”
Su Lu picked up a slice of bacon with a fork and knife, enjoying the rich flavor of the meat, and made the decision in his heart.
If not, it might directly affect his main body.
If the situation deteriorates to such an extent, Rod and the others just can’t be taken into account. There’s nothing that can be done.
If they were captured and threatened, and he obediently showed up to meet his death, that would be the biggest folly!
He had done his best, if he still couldn’t turn the tide, there was nothing much to say.
After becoming a deity, he would definitely destroy all the enemies of this world. And moreover, he would fight to the death with the Goddess of Light.
He looked out of the window.
Rod didn’t know about his visit and was shopping with Anfi.
Anfi, looking blissful, held onto Rod’s arm, the two seemed like a loving couple.
Seeing this, a slight smile appeared on Su Lu’s face.
…
White Eagle Federation.
Green Tree Castle.
In the empty villa.
Dunstan sat in Su Lu’s usual seat, puffing on a sea foam stone pipe.
“Who could have thought…”
Dunstan’s expression became somewhat strange while he silently exhaled a smoke ring.
The events of the Misfortune Ruin were highly classified.
Even the Goddess Church didn’t get much information, only recently through the marvel and divination did they reluctantly obtain a revelation about Su Lu’s promotion to the sixth order and the failure of their operation.
This information was then leaked, and acquired by Green Tree Castle.
Even Dunstan never thought that Su Lu, who had met with him not long ago, had already become a sixth-order occupational person!
“He has a monstrous talent, no… it requires not only a monstrous talent but also unparalleled luck. The secret about Mr. Su Lu is even deeper than I imagined.”
Dunstan’s eyes looked into the distance: “It’s… both enviable and regrettable.”
If he had known earlier, he might have kept Su Lu hidden, cultivated him at all costs. Once Su Lu grew strong enough, the power structure of the Federation would inevitably change along.
The regret was because Su Lu revealed his abilities a bit too early.
Although the sixth order is already the pinnacle of the world, the Goddess Church is more inscrutable.
“Chief Councillor.”
The shadow flickered, and Celsus’s figure emerged from the shadows, “The Goddess Church has issued a formal diplomatic note to us and requires our cooperation… it seems like Alfred has gone mad!”
“With such a great loss, it would be strange if he didn’t go mad.”
Irin emerged from the side, his face somewhat grave, “Mr. Su Lu has been designated as the enemy of light, ranking third on the cleansing list!”
“Hmph!”
Hearing this, Dunstan and Celsus couldn’t help but scoff.
The Goddess Church was too overbearing in their actions.
Unfortunately, they indeed had the capital to act so.
“Did the Federation also agree?”
“They probably didn’t oppose it, after all, they need the support and cooperation of the Goddess Church… the connection between the two is much tighter than ours.”
Saying this, the three of them fell silent.
“Starting from the last Arcane Spirit, we have understood that… we can never match the Goddess Church. Any struggle would be suppressed, all of this, is because we lack a truly decisive force.”
Dunstan took a deep breath: “I received a message from Su Lu earlier. He has taken Bijie away, and the shares of the telegraph company have been completely transferred to the inner circle. Let’s just handle it this way. I will send a telegraph to the Federation later to revoke the honorary council seat of Su Lu Pottery.”
Celsus and Irin couldn’t help but sigh but did not contest it.
Their abilities were inadequate and had no choice but to choose this route.
“However… the telegraph company is only nominally under us, the dividends and profits should still be given to Su Lu by setting up a special account for him.”
Dunstan waved his hand a bit tiredly, “Let’s just leave it at that… A great era is coming, it’s time we initiated that plan.”
“Chief Councillor, are you referring to?”
The eyes of Celsus and Irin lit up.
“We of Green Tree Castle must possess enough power to protect ourselves!”
Dunstan’s voice was resounding.
…
A few days later, with the statement of Green Tree Castle, the entire Mysterious world was thrown into turmoil.
Of course, Su Lu did not commit any overtly wicked acts and therefore did not trigger a federation-wide manhunt — this was of no practical use except to bring attention for revenge.
But the high ranks in the world of mystery knew that this genius [Wandering Mage] made the Goddess Church’s hit list and was sought after with a high reward.
Even simply providing information could bring hefty rewards.
Somehow, information about him being promoted to the sixth order and thwarting the Church’s forces leaked out.
Su Lu’s name spread far and wide in the new and old continents, gaining true fame! Stepping into the ranks of the world’s pinnacle level Transcendents!
