"Buzz~~~"

In the underground secret room of Swan Castle, the air began to twist in a spiral shape, and a figure gradually emerged.

It was Rosen who returned from the Nawat plane.

This time, Rosen brought almost nothing with him except his clothes, so he only had about 30% of his magic power left.

After the transmission was completed, he immediately made some settings to the secret room, temporarily unlocked the phase transmission lock of the secret room, and set up a phase transmission beacon.

After waiting for a few minutes, the beacon lit up slightly and the spiral distortion in the air reappeared.

Another figure emerged.

After a few seconds, the figure turned from virtual to real, and it was the Mother of Nature, Zigrailana.

Rosen could feel that the other party's magic power was almost completely exhausted, leaving less than half at most.

Judging from the absolute total amount of mana consumed, the opponent's is much smaller than mine.

The reason is very simple, because the phase shift of matter, soul, and even mana itself will consume mana.

Rosen is a legendary soul, so the consumption of phase transfer is naturally much greater.

When he entered Nawat with the Crystal Torrent Staff, he did not charge the staff in advance.

Because if it is full of power, the transfer will consume a huge amount of extra mana, and the transfer process will cause great shock to the soul.

After finally reaching the target location, not only will the stored mana be almost gone, but the damage to the soul will also be greatly increased.

Back to the topic.

After Zigrailana appeared, the side effect of excessive consumption of mana appeared.

She was dizzy, unbalanced, and nearly fell.

Of course Rosen would not sit idly by and watch. He quickly walked over and hugged Zigraina in his arms.

Zigraina's body shook slightly, but she didn't break free.

So the two of them stood motionless in the middle of the secret room.

Of course, Rosen was not idle either.

He called upon the power of faith and slowly poured it into Zigrailana's soul to restore her consumed strength.

Zigrellana subconsciously wanted to refuse, but soon she felt that this power was pure and gentle, and there was also a very familiar feeling, so she allowed the power to flow into her body.

Soon she felt strange.

With her eight-ring power sensitivity, she was unable to distinguish the subtle differences between the power of faith, the power of the soul, and the power of the magic ring, and therefore could not understand Rosen's methods.

She couldn't help but ask: "Duke, what kind of power is this?"

Rosen did not hide it either, because it was impossible to conceal the fact. The other party would soon discover the abnormality of the Natural Church.

"The power of faith."

Sieglerna was a very smart person with extraordinary insight, and she guessed it after just a little thought.

She looked down at the real name ring on Rosen's hand.

"Is it the power of faith provided by the Church of Nature?"

"That's right."

She was even more puzzled: "Are there so many?"

In the past, she had vaguely sensed the effect of the power of faith, but it was pitifully small and dispensable, and it was decreasing year by year, almost negligible.

Rosen smiled slightly, "Lana, I will explain this to you in detail later, but now, we have to discuss the future fate of the Natural Alliance."

This is a big deal. Zigrelana nodded and said, "You say."

Rosen said in a serious tone: "We have gained a lot from this trip to Nawat, but the price we paid is also not small."

"There will definitely be people in the Nahuat Republic who will prevent me from gaining a higher position in the Wit Continent."

Zigraina was a little confused.

"Why? What does the matter of our plane have to do with Nawat?"

"Could it be that Nawat intends to forcibly take you back?"

If that's the case, then we'll be completely at odds.

And it's difficult to do.

After all, Rosen is the Duke, and the other side is unlikely to send too many people, let alone carry powerful magical weapons.

As long as we set up a confinement array to prevent sneak attacks and build a phase shift detection device, as soon as we detect someone entering the plane, we can immediately send troops to encircle and suppress them, and easily annihilate the enemy.

Rosen leaned close to the other party's delicate ear and whispered, "Because the Glorious Empire and Nawat have always maintained close cooperation, its help to Nawat is much greater than ours."

"In this case, if the Glorious Empire feels threatened by us and asks Nawat for help, do you think Nawat will just sit there and watch?"

Zigrailana was shocked because she knew Rosen was right.

Her only question was how Rosen knew this.

Rosen sensed her confusion and took the initiative to explain.

"I saw a lot of knowledge from the Glorious Empire in the Temple of Wisdom, and it was all very precious knowledge."

"This is enough to show the deep cooperation between the two sides."

Zigrelana understood immediately and asked immediately: "What should we do now?"

"I left a hidden hand in Nahuat, but it's not enough. We must also speed up the unification of the Natural Alliance."

As he spoke, Rosen slightly exerted force with his arms and hugged the gentle and shy Mother Nature tightly in his arms.

"I can't do this on my own. I need your help."

Zigrelana's cheeks were already red as fire, and she twisted her body uneasily: "Of course I will do my best to help you, but I'm only an eighth-ring mage, how can I help you?"

Rosen had already thought about it. He leaned close to Mother Nature's ear and whispered his plan.

The latter became more and more surprised the more he listened, and in the end, his face was full of disbelief.

"I simply cannot believe that such a thing exists in the world. Is it really possible to respond to so many believers one by one?"

Rosen smiled slightly and said half-truthfully: "Mortals can't do it, and legendary wizards can't do it either, but if the legendary mana crystal and the puppet are combined, it may be possible!"

"You know, our Iron Clan is best at creating puppets, and I have developed puppetry to an extreme."

"In order to develop the natural religion, I created a faith management puppet that is specifically used to respond to the believers' prayers and grant some small spiritual spells to some devout church backbones through the faith channel."

"The effect is also very good. It has greatly increased the influence of the natural religion among the people, and the power of faith obtained has also greatly increased."

Of course he would not reveal Lai Fu's existence, but Lai Fu's abilities could be partially reproduced using current knowledge of magic.

And with the resources at his disposal, he is fully capable of doing these things.

Therefore, Zieglerana believed it 90%, and at the same time felt that Rosen's imagination was incredibly rich. He could actually come up with such an incredible idea. He was simply... simply not like an ordinary person.

She was also very shy because in Rosen's plan, Rosen would become the emperor of the Natural Empire, and she would become the queen of the Natural Empire.

Although she did not reject Rosen and greatly admired the young wizard's talent, and might even like him a little, she always felt uneasy and filled with an indescribable sense of uneasiness.

Rosen was a man of great character. As soon as he saw Sieglerna's expression, he knew that she had completely agreed in her heart. The reason why she showed hesitation was mostly because of the modesty of an unmarried girl.

Even though you have seen it countless times, you have never experienced it yourself, so you will feel uneasy.

This is human nature.

One is to take the other person directly into the wild world of adults like a roller coaster.

First, proceed step by step and everything will come naturally.

The former progresses rapidly but is prone to failure, and is suitable for passionate and bold girls, such as Alice.

The latter is slow but safe and comfortable, suitable for reserved and shy girls, such as the mother of nature in front of you.

Zigrailana is an extremely important existence, which is directly related to whether Rosen can successfully unify the Natural Alliance, so he plans to spend some time and effort to simmer it over low heat.

So he lowered his head and kissed Sieglerana on the cheek.

Zieglerana was slightly startled, her eyes widened, and she subconsciously raised her hand to push him away, but not with much force.

After pushing her a few times without success, she let Rosen flirt with her, thinking to herself: "Just think of this as intimacy between good friends."

Rosen kissed her on the lips.

Zieglerana's whole body trembled violently, and she raised her hand to push him away again.

As she pushed, she whispered in her mind, "Duke, let me go. I...I'm not ready yet."

Cheeks can be considered intimate between good friends, but lips are something that only lovers can do. She couldn't find an excuse to convince herself no matter what.

Although she felt the numbness on her lips was wonderful, the feeling was also very strange and she was not used to it.

Rosen felt that it was about time. If he went any further, the other party might run away like a frightened cat and would not be seen for a long time.

So he paused his attack, but did not loosen his arms as the other party wished, and replied in a mental whisper: "Sorry, Miss, I couldn't help it."

Seeing that Rosen stopped, Zieglera's nervousness eased a lot, and she stopped resisting. She just curled up in Rosen's arms like a cat, not moving.

The feeling of a simple hug was quite good, and it gave her a sense of security and protection.

After a moment of silence, she calmed down and said softly, "I personally agree to be the queen of the Natural Empire, but this is a big deal and I alone don't have the final say."

"I also have to meet my parents and grandfather. Especially my grandfather. Only with my grandfather's approval can this really be accomplished."

Rosen raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is the Godly Father still alive?"

The Great Father is the founder of Deism.

Although he only has the magical power of nine rings, he is an extremely extraordinary person, and has a huge deterrent effect even on the Lord of Light.

In mythological novels, God's Mighty Father and the Lord of Glory have had many direct confrontations. Generally speaking, God's Mighty Father is at a disadvantage, but the Lord of Glory cannot do whatever he wants.

This can be clearly seen from the geopolitical structure of the contemporary Natural Alliance and the Glorious Nations.

Although Rosen didn't know why Shenwei Tianfu, a nine-ring wizard, was so powerful, strong is strong, and only by respecting the facts can one make better progress.

For safety reasons, he naturally maintained a respectful attitude towards the Mighty Father.

Since he is still alive, he cannot be ignored.

Ziglarana also gave a clear answer: "It is currently sleeping, but it can sleep for a maximum of 20 years. If it wakes up, it will only last half a year."

As expected, time is running out and the hero is old.

In comparison, the Lord of Light, a ten-ring mage, still has a lot of time left to be awake.

In a sense, the Lord of Light never really defeated the Mighty Father, but rather outlasted the old hero.

After careful consideration, Rosen came up with a plan in mind.

"If I can advance to the Tenth Ring, I will probably be able to stay awake for at least another thirty years."

In his opinion, it is better for the Mighty Father to be alive than dead. Being alive can attract firepower for him. If he is dead, he will have to face the Glorious Empire alone.

"Can I?" Zigraina asked in surprise.

My grandfather is already extremely powerful with the ninth ring of magic power. If he were to be promoted to the tenth ring, the situation of the natural god system would be much better than it is now.

Rosen wasn't so sure.

If the efficiency of Godly Father's practice is just a little short of the tenth ring, then he can succeed with a little help. If it is far short of it, then he has no way to do it now.

But this is temporary.

We have gained so much valuable knowledge this time. Once we study it thoroughly, we should be able to find new ways to break through the barriers.

Finally, he had a secret consideration.

If the Mighty Father could be promoted to the tenth ring, Rosen could even use the legendary mana crystal to assist him in his promotion to legend, allowing him to deal with the Lord of Light, an old rival who had been entangled with him for countless years.

But this will cause a problem.

Heroes like the Mighty Father cannot be controlled by others.

After he obtains the legendary power, he might go after the Lord of Light, but he might also turn around and suppress this 'usurper'.

Therefore, unless he has the power to suppress ordinary legends, he would only bring trouble to himself if he rashly upgrades himself to the status of Godly Father.

So, facing Sieglerana's expectation, he said: "I dare not make a complete guarantee. After all, my grandfather is old and I am afraid he can't stand the hardship."

"My idea is that after I have fully absorbed the knowledge I have gained this time and found a safe and reliable method, we will go see Grandfather so as not to be happy in vain."

This statement is rigorous, sound and impeccable.

Zigrelana nodded repeatedly: "Okay, let's do it."

Seeing her happy, Rosen took a step forward and said, "This is not an easy job. Miss, should you give me a small reward?"

"What reward do you want?"

Rosen stared at her bright red lips.

Zigraina pursed her lips, tilted her head back slightly, and closed her eyes.

She acquiesced.

After some communication, Zigrailana almost collapsed in Rosen's arms.

Rosen then spoke seriously about the second matter: "Dear, the fewer people who know about the Faith Management Puppet, the better."

"Before things mature, it's best for only the two of us to know, so as to avoid any impact on the church."

Ziglarana nodded in agreement: "You are right."

Rosen continued: "In addition, the current faith puppet's capabilities are far from sufficient. After I digest this knowledge, I will design a brand new faith puppet."

"We must make adjustments to the teachings of the Natural Church."

"We must not only obtain as much power of faith as possible, but also meet the needs of the new era."

"Finally, if you are willing, you will be responsible for the maintenance of the Faith Puppet. If you find it troublesome, leave it to me."

This puppet of faith can be considered the prototype of man-made gods.

At the beginning, the functions must be very simple and the reactions must be very rigid.

But it doesn’t matter. At first, we just do some simple work to conceal Lai Fu’s existence.

The real work still depends mainly on Lai Fu.

Zigrelana was very curious about the Faith Puppet: "Let me try it first."

Rosen laughed in his heart: "This job is extremely tedious. I wonder how long you can hold on."
