The person who came was none other than Sudhor, the lord of the Golden City.
After hesitating for a long time, the city lord finally decided to take the initiative to visit.
Eros knew why the city lord came to see him, because he was the one who facilitated it.
Before he came to the Golden City, he heard from Andreys that the city lord wanted to be promoted to Sequence 2.
After all, I am planning to trade star crystals with someone, so I must know some information about him.
At that time, after listening to Andfis's story about the city lord, he quickly noticed something strange.
The city lord said that he wanted to reach Sequence 2, but ten years have passed and he has not taken any other actions except developing his own anchor point.
You know, ten years ago, he confidently announced in public that he would strive to reach Sequence 2.
If you are so confident, why haven't you taken any action in ten years?
Combining his own ideas, Eros immediately came up with some guesses.
Perhaps after the city lord announced that he was about to reach Sequence 2, he received a reminder from someone.
As for who these certain people are, Eros is inclined to believe that it was the church who reminded them, on the grounds that Sudhor is still alive.
Because the city lord is not a bad person. At least under his rule, the Golden City is a territory of order, so the church only gives reminders instead of taking direct action.
If it were those alien organizations, they would probably take action directly.
Neither the church nor the foreign god organizations want anyone other than themselves to become angels.
Yes, this city lord is indeed a person who abides by the rules, but unfortunately, he is not a believer in the gods believed in by the church.
For this reason alone, the Church would not allow Sudhor to advance to Sequence 2.
Although the church is committed to maintaining world order, this does not mean that they are selfless.
All gods have selfish desires, let alone those who have not yet become gods.
The only ones without selfishness in this world are probably the gods who are completely driven by divinity. They are pure gods who only act according to the rules they control.
Sudhol understood this after receiving the reminder, so he has been afraid to get promoted.
As long as he doesn't get promoted, if the angels from the alien organization try to attack him, the angels of the church will stop them.
After all, he is a man who abides by order, and the church is happy to see more sparks of order at the intersection of such camps.
But if he tries to be promoted, the church will no longer stop the angels of the alien organization.
They want a more orderly world, but they don't want anyone other than themselves to take the position of chess player.
In this age when gods cannot walk on earth, angels can already sit at the table as chess players.
Eros understood Sudhor's desire to be promoted but his fear of being promoted made him propose to trade high-level spells for star crystals.
He wanted to tell Sudhol that there was a Sequence 1 Saint standing behind him.
Otherwise, he could have used other things to trade for star crystals. He robbed... ahem, after Andreys voluntarily handed over her resources, he had quite a lot of things in his small treasury that could be used to trade for star crystals.
Although star crystals are rare, he is not someone who cannot afford to trade them. Even if it is traded at a premium, he can fully afford it.
The reason why he indicated to Sudhol that there was a Sequence 1 Saint behind him was naturally to show goodwill to Sudhol.
This was exactly why he pointed out that Sudhol wanted to be promoted but was afraid to be promoted to Sequence 2.
All the things he did were meant to express, "I know you really want to advance to Sequence 2, and I can help you."
If he hadn't wanted to express this intention to Sudhol, there would have been no need for him to expose Cynthia's existence.
Afterwards, he deliberately did not go to the City Lord's Mansion to receive the identity of a law enforcement officer, which was also to reveal a message to Sudehol.
That is, he has a close relationship with the Sequence 1 Saint, and can even ask that Saint to help him circumvent the punishment of the Book of Rules so that he can successfully collect the ritual materials.
Including the attempt to kill Odysseus yesterday, the purpose was to deepen the impression that he had a close relationship with the saint.
Eros did not hide his itinerary, and with Sudhol's strength, it was not difficult to find out that it was him who did it.
Although there was a slight accident along the way, which caused the block to turn into a jungle, the ultimate goal was still successfully achieved.
And a guy who had just been promoted to Sequence 4 went to the house of a senior Sequence 3 and killed that Sequence 3 and his subordinates in front of his subordinates.
This kind of thing is impossible no matter how you think about it, unless the Sequence 4 uses a power that does not belong to him.
Whose power would he borrow? This is hard to guess. As long as Sudhol is still a normal person, he will probably think of the saint.
These multiple instances of him showing off his close relationship with the Saint were undoubtedly telling Sudhol that the person who could help him was the Sequence 1 Saint, not Eros who had just been promoted to Sequence 4.
If a Sequence 1 and a Sequence 4 were put together, no one would think that the Sequence 4 was the one in charge.
As for why the saint did not come out to negotiate in person but chose to send a representative, this is also easy to explain.
Is it possible for others to see a saint casually? Don't they want to be classy?
If I do everything myself, what will my subordinates and believers do?
Besides, if a saint suddenly came to you and told you in person that he could help you advance to Sequence 2, this person would probably shock you more than surprise you.
Therefore, Eros packages himself as a mouthpiece.
Given Sudhor's cleverness, he must have realized what I wanted to say when I proposed to trade high-level spells for star crystals and pointed out his fear of being promoted.
But when it comes to something like pie falling from the sky, everyone would be skeptical for a while, right?
Perhaps it was for this reason that the city lord, knowing full well that there was a saint behind him, still did not visit, but chose to let the butler deliver the star crystal.
This was probably because he was still doubting the purpose of the saint behind him and was unwilling to approach rashly and wanted to keep his distance.
To be honest, Eros was a little surprised that Sudhol suddenly came to visit him today. He thought Sudhol would need to consider it for a while.
It seems that this city lord is very eager to be promoted to Sequence 2. That’s right, if he really gave up, there would be no need to continue developing anchor points in the next ten years.
What’s the point of developing anchors if you’re not planning on getting promoted anyway?
Ordinary transcendents are not like him. At Sequence 4, they can feel the tug of war between divinity and humanity.
Only after they advance to Sequence 2, become angels, and become mythical beings, will divinity be born in their souls.
Of course, this divinity is definitely different from the divinity used by Eros before. The two have the same name, but are completely different.
What Eros uses can be said to be divine power to a certain extent, while the divinity born in the soul of mythological life is just a state.
