Chapter 29
"Lord Jada, what should we do with this sacrifice...this person?"
The believers, who were full of enthusiasm and had nowhere to vent their energy, began to frantically look for things to do.
Even if it's just a little bit, they want to carry out God's will immediately!
"The gods don't like this kind of sacrifice. Don't do it again in the future." Jada pondered as he looked at the blond man in the coffin.
Then, he personally stepped forward to untie the other person's restraints, with a sincere and kind smile on his face, and helped the other person carefully pat the dust off his clothes.
"I'm so sorry..." At that moment, Jada's face shone with a holy light, as if he were truly a high priest listening to prayers in a temple, his face full of righteousness. "We foolishly misinterpreted God's will and frightened you. Is this your first time in this town? Where would you like to go? We can send someone to take you there. We all know this area very well, and we can act as tour guides if you'd like."
"...Please forgive our impoliteness. We beg you sincerely—let us make amends to you!"
After hearing Jada's words, the other sect members were stunned for a moment, and then they reacted one by one.
Yes, they must now completely obey God’s will and must never do anything that God does not like.
Moreover, they saw with their own eyes how dazzling and sublime the gods were!
To match that glory, they had to act sneakily like rats hiding in the gutter as before. This was simply bringing shame to their God and was absolutely unacceptable!
We must become better people so as not to disgrace the glory of God and to let more people know how great their God is!
Everyone immediately understood Jada's good intentions, and took him as an example, holding their heads high and looking ashamed.
"Yes, yes, big brother... No, sir, if you have any requests, please feel free to ask..."
Huo Sen, who was surrounded by the crowd, had a heaving chest and did not answer them.
No matter what, what happened in this short period of time was too exciting.
God? Does such a thing really exist in this world? But... he was indeed saved by the other party's appearance. If it weren't for this series of unexpected developments, he would probably have been killed by that crazy leader!
All the previous events flashed before his eyes, and then Huo Sen's gaze fixed on the believers in front of him.
——It’s really different now…
At first, they were a little uncomfortable, and they tried hard to nitpick the words, imagining themselves as those serving the saints.
In an instant, it seemed as if their entire realm had been elevated several levels, and their lofty sense of mission made them completely forget everything else.
Huo Sen, who escaped death, couldn't help but wonder, can faith really transform a person?
As if seeing his confusion and hesitation, Jada smiled secretly, walked forward slowly, and said sincerely -
"I believe this is also a fate bestowed by God. I wonder if you would be interested in learning more about our sect?"
"I guarantee that this is a completely reborn, brand-new sect! We will judge the sins of the old leader and make everyone deeply repent for their past mistakes!"
"I intend to expand Protestantism to the general public, so that they too can gain the same infinite hope and courage from God's salvation as we do. I would be very grateful if you could provide me with your advice as a first reference."
"..." Huo Sen opened his mouth, his reason telling him that he should leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.
However, having experienced all this, how could he remain calm at this moment!
Jada smiled slightly at the sight and waved to the believers behind him, "Everyone, clean up here first. The ruins of God's Descent will be a holy place for Protestantism from now on. We must preserve them well for future believers to see! Also, bring some food, water, and towels. We need to entertain our distinguished guests well."
Just when Jada found the first safe and beneficial target for the new religion, Lu Mi and others had already left the underground.
Aronfoss left a shadow beside Jada, able to grasp the other party's movements in real time and keep in touch.
Thinking of everything that happened in the underground palace, Lu Mi still wanted to sigh -
Wow, you are all movie stars. This makes me, who is standing there with a blank expression, feel very embarrassed.
He really didn't expect that Jada, who was acting freely, could have so many dramas. When the other party rushed in front of him, he didn't even react to what the other party said.
Fortunately, Lu Mi knew that his appearance was mainly to leave enough deterrence to everyone.
So he didn't say a word and just split the dome.
Aronfoss later commented that silence was more powerful than words. This silence greatly preserved the power and mystery of these beings, and I believe that the humans now have even greater awe of them.
Afterwards, Aronfos criticized Gabo again. Don’t think he didn’t notice that the other party was distracted the whole time!
Jiabo moved his eyelashes listlessly, ignoring the accusation completely. Then, the white-haired demon looked quietly at the figure walking in front.
"What's wrong?" Lu Mi noticed the other person's gaze and turned around to ask naturally.
Ignoring Aronfos who was glaring at him from the side, Jiabo rubbed his eyes sleepily and said softly, "Can I sleep at your place tonight?"
"Hmm?" Lu Mi's expression remained unchanged, his tone still calm, "Didn't you get enough rest yesterday?"
Jiabo responded softly, lowering his long, silver eyelashes. "The mirror world is too noisy."
Now there are giant dragons, fairy species, and Zerg armies in the mirror world... For the demons who like quietness, they can only endure it because it is Lu Mi's wish.
Lu Mi also realized this, and nodded with an apologetic look, "I'll find a way as soon as possible. You can come to my bedroom tonight, but there's only one bed..."
"Yeah." A comfortable and subtle curve appeared on Jiabo's lips. "I can just sleep on the floor. I can lean my head against you."
ah……
Lu Mi swallowed what he was about to say.
Because he remembered that when he was in the abyss and had just made a contract with Jiabo, the two of them were wandering around in the abyss.
He would attack any powerful enemy he encountered, and his physical skills improved the most during that period. When he was tired from fighting, and of course there was no bed to sleep on, he would just find a large bare rock.
Sitting on the barren land, with their backs against the rocks, the two of them leaned shoulder to shoulder, head to head, and fell asleep together.
It was as if they were the only ones clinging to each other in the apocalyptic world.
At that time, the white-haired devil knew almost nothing. After he was born in the mirror world, he almost never left that space that belonged to him.
After being caught by Lu Mi, he had been following him. In the beginning, Lu Mi felt like he was carrying an exquisite sculpture, a white-haired demon made of ice and snow with almost no expression.
Later, after spending a long time with Lu Mi, Jiabo's expressions gradually became more diverse, and he began to express his emotions to others - but Lu Mi showed it the most. It was difficult for others to see any expression other than laziness and expressionlessness on the demon's face.
…
That evening.
Stars hang in the night sky, twinkling quietly.
Lu Mi confirmed that everything was going well on Jada's side, and arranged the subsequent distribution of the Zerg army.
Part of the Zerg army was sent back to the western region of the abyss. After all, the Zerg Queen was dead, and some of the previously defeated Zerg swarms in the western region seemed to have regained their enthusiasm and were ready to make a move.
They needed to suppress these restless people and let the Western Regions know that they had welcomed a new master.
Originally, it would be best for Ji Zhou to take charge of this matter. After the death of the Zerg Queen, no Zerg in the Western Regions can be his opponent.
However, the Zerg army said that it would be better for their big brother to stay with his master!
Before leaving, the four-winged Zerg who had been promoted to second in command, hinted at Ji Zhou's encouragement, "Brother, remember to behave well in front of the king—those demons arrived early, and our Zerg's future position in the king's heart depends entirely on your performance!"
Ji Zhou nodded solemnly, "I will."
As long as the silver-eyed young man needs him, he will fight for him on the front line, no matter how hard it takes.
The four-winged insect nodded with satisfaction and set off on the road to the crack in the mirror world. After walking away, he didn't forget to turn around and shout, "Remember to be a little cute--!"
cute?
Ji Zhou's serious eyes revealed a hint of confusion. What did fighting for the king have to do with being cute? Wouldn't that make him stronger?
Afterwards, Ji Zhou withdrew his gaze, and as the remaining Zerg beat their chests and stamped their feet, he bowed his head and asked Lu Midan for instructions: "Then I will take my leave first. You can call me anytime if you need anything."
He was like the most loyal knight, guarding the side of the throne.
When Ji Zhou left the bedroom, the silver-eyed young man was the only one left in the small room.
——It’s time to rest.
After washing up, Lu Mi made the bed and suddenly turned his head to the only full-length mirror in the room and called out, "Jiabo?"
Ripples appeared on the mirror surface, and a white-haired demon with a red dragon on its head walked out.
Lu Mi smiled knowingly as soon as he saw it, "What happened to Ke'er?"
The red dragon seemed tired of playing around. It released its claws from the white hair, flapped its wings unsteadily, and flew into Lu Mi's hands. It sniffed the familiar scent of the young man, closed its sleepy eyes, and fell into a peaceful sleep.
Jiabo's white hair was slightly messy, and his breathing was a little unstable. "I didn't intend to bring it here."
His tone was unusually calm, but Lu Mi somehow heard a hint of grievance in it.
The silver-eyed young man couldn't help but chuckle as he placed the red dragon on the made bed.
Then, he took out another mattress that had been prepared long ago and spread it on the floor next to the bed.
Lu Mi was the first to sit on the mat, leaning against the foot of the bed, and patted his side, "Come on."
Jiabo seemed stunned for a moment, then subconsciously walked over and sat down obediently. It was only when he was next to the young man and felt the warm touch of a living human body through the cloth that he seemed to wake up.
"What is this?"
"Ah, I just suddenly feel a little nostalgic. Let's just sleep like this tonight, like we used to." After saying that, Lu Mi glanced at the shrunken red dragon occupying the center of the bed, a faint smile in his eyes, "Besides, I don't want Cer'er to suddenly grow bigger in the middle of the night and be suffocated by it."
"...Yeah." Jiabo responded softly. Although he didn't say anything, Lu Mi could clearly feel that his mood had improved.
"Will it be a bit crowded?" Lu Mi moved. He only had a spare blanket. Although demons were not afraid of the cold at all, sleeping required a sense of ritual and he had to cover himself with a quilt.
"No, this place is very close to you." Jiabo suddenly turned his head to look at him, "Can I lean on you?"
"Come on." Lu Mi lifted his shoulders.
Jiabo's eyes flickered and he gently leaned his head on the young man's shoulder.
Ahhh…
A sigh unknown to anyone sounded in the devil's heart.
I originally thought that this would be a sleepless night, but for some reason, wrapped in the familiar breath of the silver-eyed young man, my heart became light, like walking on clouds, on marshmallows - incredibly soft.
It seems that if you poke it gently, tears will suddenly flow out.
“…”
Hearing the sound of long breathing next to his ears, Lu Mi tilted his head slightly and found that the devil had fallen asleep peacefully.
Under the warm yellow light, the devil looked like a sleeping crystal, incredibly beautiful.
"...Good night, Jiabo." The gentle words dissipated in the night wind as the lights suddenly went out.
The demon in his sleep gently grabbed the edge of the clothes of the person next to him, like a ghost who finally returned home, tightly grasping his entire world.
Perhaps, the meaning of youth is so important to him.
The young man once led him out of his closed world, and after that, he indeed saw a wider and more vast world.
But it was not as exciting as he had imagined, or rather, it was not what he was pursuing.
He even saw Aronfoss's expectations and ambitions for the young man, but he didn't care at all.
It didn't matter if it was a paradise of freedom or a cage of bondage, whether the youth was high up or in the dust, whether he was a king or a commoner—it didn't matter to him at all, as long as it was this person...
He simply wanted to be with this person.
…
The next day, Gaudi hurriedly knocked on Lu Mi's room door.
"What's wrong?" Lu Mi opened the door.
"A new undercover agent has arrived—already at the chapter door!"
Lu Mi's eyes flickered, and he glanced at Jiabo and Honglong who were still in the room and nodded to him, "Take me to see it."
Afterwards, in front of the branch, Lu Mi and the blond man looked at each other.
Huo Sen widened his eyes and looked at the familiar face of the silver-eyed young man in surprise.
“God…” He stuttered for a long time before finally uttering, “God appeared again!?”
The author has something to say: Undercover: It’s me, I’m here to give it away for free again.
