Chapter 284 The Immense Value of Silver City
Is the land forsaken by God the location of the true Creator's kingdom?
Everyone in the Tarot Club was startled, and then they all looked at Mr. "The Sun" with sympathy.
There is nothing more tragic than being adjacent to the kingdom of the evil god. From this point of view, Silver City's more than a thousand years of perseverance is meaningless. No matter how hard they try, they cannot escape their fate of destruction.
Mr. Sun, Derrick, felt his lips and throat were dry, and his mind was somewhat dazed, even though he was not in his physical body at the Tarot meeting.
A profound sense of despair and tragedy enveloped him, so much so that he didn't even respond when other members of the Tarot Club called out to him!
"Have all our years of perseverance been in vain? We endured the darkness, the curse, and the bloody slaughter among our own family, all for a sliver of a possibility, only to be left with nothing but this hopeless fate?"
Everyone in the Tarot Club felt the despair and pain emanating from Derrick.
"Actually, Silver City isn't entirely without a chance!"
Evan directly exposed the truth about the Forsaken Land, not to shatter Derrick's hopes, so when he sensed that Derrick was starting to go down a dead end, he immediately tried to comfort him.
"Are you telling the truth, Mr. 'Power'? Is there really any hope left for Silver City?"
Upon hearing Evan's words, Derrick became so excited that he desperately tried to grab Evan, as if he were desperately grasping at a sliver of hope.
However, since both Derrick and Evan were attending the meeting as astral beings, he naturally couldn't capture Evan.
Derrick reached out and tried to grab Evan, but found he couldn't catch him. He didn't care and continued to look at Evan with expectant and eager eyes. "As I said before, because of the battle between the angels of Backlund some time ago, the fallen creator descended to the world in the form of an avatar, so his energy should be focused on that avatar now."
Furthermore, your Silver City has existed in the Forsaken Land for over a thousand years; it's impossible for you to have kept it from him. This indicates that he has other plans for you, so you shouldn't worry about him attacking you. You are still safe!
After Evan's analysis, Derrick's restless heart finally calmed down.
"If it were before, I wouldn't think Silver City would still have a chance, but now the Northern Continent has entered a delicate period of time."
Whether it's the fall of the Creator to earth, the angelic war in Backlund, the subtle atmosphere between various churches, or the awakening of Mr. Fool, all these indicate some changes.
In this situation, Silver City actually had a sliver of hope for escape.
Upon hearing Evan mention Mr. Fool, everyone involuntarily looked at Mr. Fool, who was always calm and always smiling at them.
Klein, who was also listening intently to Evan's analysis, cursed inwardly when Evan brought up his topic again, but dared not give any response. He simply maintained his previous posture to avoid giving the Tarot Club members the wrong information.
Seeing that Mr. Fool did not respond to Mr. Strength's words, the Tarot Club members all felt that Mr. Fool had tacitly agreed with what Evan had said, so they turned back to look at Evan with burning eyes, hoping to get more information.
Unfortunately, Evan could not provide any more information, otherwise it might arouse suspicion.
"So you don't need to despair about the future of Silver City. What you should do now is take advantage of Mr. 'The Fool's' opportunity to pull you into the Tarot Club, work hard to advance, improve your strength and status in Silver City, and wait for the right opportunity!"
Although Derrick is young and inexperienced, it doesn't mean he's not smart or lacks determination.
His earlier loss of composure stemmed from despair at finding no way forward. Now that he felt hope again, he was the most resolute warrior. He quickly composed himself and solemnly asked Evan for advice:
Do you have any suggestions for me?
Evan nodded slightly, feeling that Derrick was "teachable" and that his efforts had not been in vain.
"Although the Fallen Creator poses no threat to Silver City now, he will certainly not ignore its existence and will definitely leave a way to hold it back."
I think this handhold should be the shepherd you mentioned last time—Elder Lovia.
It should be understood that the Fallen Creator is the ultimate evil god on this path.
Moreover, I suspect that both your situation and Elder Lovia's are being observed by the higher-ups in Silver City!
At this point, everyone in the Tarot Club was startled, because if Mr. Power's guess was true, then the higher-ups in Silver City could very well have detected the existence of the Tarot Club through the "Sun".
However, when they looked at Mr. Fool, who was sitting at the head of the table, they found that he was still as unfathomable as ever, not saying a word, as if he had everything under control. So they put their minds at ease and cursed themselves for worrying for no reason.
"Mr. Fool is someone who can pull Mr. Sun into the Tarot Club right under the nose of the true Creator. How could he possibly be noticed by the Silver City, which has no angels?"
Thinking about this, everyone in the Tarot Club found their earlier worries amusing; they had actually doubted Mr. Fool's power. Then they turned their attention back to Evan's words.
"The reason why Elder Lovia was able to become an elder of Silver City is not only because she raised a demigod evil spirit and met the required strength, but also because the higher-ups of Silver City must have been pushing her behind the scenes."
The reason is simple: Silver City, in its predicament, needs and craves change, so while they are wary of this shepherd,
But Wen let her be.
And you are now the only Extraordinary being in Silver City with the 'Sun' pathway, just as special as this shepherd, or perhaps even more special, because the Creator you believe in possesses the authority of the 'Sun'!
Although you may not feel it, I bet there are people sent by higher-ups to monitor you.
This presents an opportunity, an opportunity to gain the full support of the Silver City leadership!
"What opportunity?"
Derrick, engrossed in the conversation, couldn't wait to ask, while also reflecting on the various inconsistencies in his own behavior.
For example, he said he obtained the recipe for the "Singer" potion from his parents' belongings.
The higher-ups in Silver City only conducted a routine investigation and did not conduct any in-depth investigation at all.
For example, he handed over the potion recipe he obtained, and Silver City was not short of Sequence 9 potion materials, but had never heard of a second "Sun" pathway extraordinary person.
For example, it was far too easy for him to collect potion recipes and materials for the "audience" pathway for Miss "Justice".
These doubts had been overlooked by Derrick before, but after Evan pointed them out, they resurfaced in his mind, and he felt a chill run down his spine.
"Although Elder Lovia's appearance has brought new variables, I believe that the higher-ups of your Silver City are also uneasy. Your appearance not only represents new variables, but also gives the higher-ups of your Silver City an opportunity to check her. In order to enable you to better check her, Silver City will spare no effort to cultivate you!"
"Mr. Sun, do you have the courage to bear all of this?"
At this point, everyone present understood Evan's plan. Whether it was the shrewd Alger, Klein sitting at the head of the table, or the others, they all acknowledged the feasibility of the plan!
At the same time, everyone couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that Mr. "Power" had gone down the wrong path. He shouldn't have become a "hunter," but rather a "lawyer" or a politician!
This style of seizing every opportunity to seek personal gain is very similar to that of lawyers and politicians.
Derrick, who wasn't stupid, quickly realized the feasibility of Mr. Power's plan, but he hesitated because he knew that this path was very lonely and might even cause misunderstanding, contempt, and abandonment by the other people in Silver City.
Although people in Silver City are generally precocious, Derrick is still a teenager and it is difficult for him to make such a significant decision so soon.
The tarot room fell silent for a moment, with only Derrick's heavy breathing echoing in the background.
Just as Mr. Sun, Derrick, was at a loss for what to do, the usually taciturn World suddenly spoke to Evan:
"I want to know why you're getting so deeply involved in Silver City's affairs? What benefit do you get from doing this?"
In Klein's eyes, Silver City wasn't actually of much value to Evan. After all, Silver City didn't have anything of high quality from the "Hunter" path. Even if it had the materials he needed, he could exchange them with Derrick for some things, so there was no need to get too involved.
Moreover, although Evan was his good friend, he also knew that someone who could become the deputy director of MI9 in three months could not possibly be a good person. He was also worried that Little 'Sun' would be tricked by Evan, so he couldn't help but speak up as 'World' Klein.
Evan was well aware of Klein's doubts and concerns, but his plans were nothing to hide, so he simply smiled and said:
"Helping Silver City won't bring me immediate benefits, but what about the future?"
It's important to know that Silver City boasts tens of thousands of high-quality residents, hundreds of extraordinary individuals, several demigods, and two level 0 sealed artifacts.
A vast force comprised of several "Level 1" sealed artifacts.
This force can almost be considered half of the true god's church!
I'm helping Mr. "Sun" and Silver City now. After they escape, will they be able to help me too?
So this is a great investment for me that doesn't require much effort but can yield huge returns if it succeeds. Why wouldn't I take it?
Surely not everyone in Silver City is an ingrate, a heartless wretch who turns their back on you after something's done?
As he spoke, Evan looked at Derrick, who was looking very conflicted.
Upon hearing this, Derrick immediately shook his head and quickly said:
"We of Silver City are absolutely not ungrateful; we will definitely repay our friends who helped us!"
Although Derrick is young, it doesn't mean he doesn't understand the principle of "those who follow the right path will find many supporters, while those who stray from it will find few," so he tries his best to explain it to everyone.
"You're just an ordinary member of Silver City, not even the captain of an exploration team, let alone an elder or chief. How can you possibly represent Silver City?"
Evan's very sharp remark that "the sun" could not represent Silver City at all left Derrick speechless for a moment. In the end, he could only grit his teeth and sincerely say to everyone present:
"I will definitely advance to the next level as soon as possible, join the exploration team, strive to become the captain, an elder, a chief, and someone who can represent Silver City. I hope Mr. 'Power' and everyone else will do their best to help me and help Silver City!"
The members of the Tarot Club were also moved by Evan's analysis and the prospects he described, especially his description of half of the Church of the True God, which made them realize the value of Silver City once again. They all expressed their support for Silver City and offered their advice.
Since Derrick has decided to become a tool for the Silver City's upper echelons to balance Elder Lovia, everyone is giving him advice in this regard.
Many hands make light work, and soon a complete plan targeting Elder Lovia, pretending to have a powerful backer who harbors hatred towards the Fallen Creator, was devised. Evan didn't even need to add fuel to the fire or look for loopholes.
After receiving the plan that everyone had come up with, Derrick was in high spirits, feeling that a bright future was beckoning to him.
Other members of the Tarot Club also felt like investors, with both sides seeing a bright future.
In fact, Evan has always placed Silver City in a very high position, not only because Silver City is very powerful.
Furthermore, it was because Evan realized, while repeatedly looking at "Lord of Mysteries" in his mind, that Silver City might become Klein's anchor of faith in the future.
Klein is the protagonist of Lord of Mysteries and it's almost certain that he will reach the pinnacle in the future. However, his sequence style is obviously very cautious, so it's impossible for him to appear on a large scale to spread his teachings!
So where will Klein's faith come from?
Once Evan realized this, he easily concluded that Silver City, trapped in the Forsaken Land for thousands of years, would definitely become a loyal follower of the "Patient" who would help them escape their predicament.
Faith is so important to the true God that it is the balancing force that maintains 'humanity'.
If the true God were to wage war and seek to kill the other side, the first step would certainly be to launch a secular war of faith, shaking the anchor of the other side's faith.
After this discovery, Evan became very interested in the anchor of faith that would interfere with Klein's future.
Moreover, the value of Silver City extends beyond this point.
According to the racial classification of the Northern Continent, those who have been influenced by the extraordinary characteristics of the "Warrior" path are what everyone sees as the Fusak people, tall and mighty.
If judged by this standard, then the people of Silver City are the true Fusak people, and even more so because they are the descendants of the legendary giant kingdom of "Silver Country" and possess the blood of giants, they are the true orthodox ones.
The two cores of the Fusak Empire are the Church of War and the Einhorn family.
The legitimate line of the Einhorn family resides in the Kingdom of Rune, while the legitimate line of the Church of the God of War resides in the Forsaken Land.
The only obstacle here is the "God of War," the legendary ancient giant.
So as long as the "God of War" no longer exists, wouldn't it be a matter of course and a matter of course for the Horn family, who have the support of Silver City, to take over the Fusak Empire?
