Chapter 421: Chapter 131

McHale was a smart dragon. Although he was a bit lazy, he had very good intuition.

Thus, although he didn’t know how Sui Xiong would be able to help him save time to grow, he refused the offer.

But he accepted the job at Void City to disguise himself as the evil dragon underneath the Dragon and Dungeons section of the Underground Adventure Park.

On one hand, it wasn’t anything difficult nor dangerous, so it wasn’t worth taking the risk to offend a powerful God; on the other hand, he was also curious about what this magnificent and luxurious Void Mask Land looked like.

Later, this Copper Dragon, who others also called the Dragon of Autumn Twilight, started his journey with not too much of his treasure. He flew a long way with Sui Xiong and finally arrived at the Void City.

“How magnificent it is!” McHale was deeply attracted by the scenery there as soon as he arrived.

In the center of the Void City was a large playground surrounded by many recreational facilities. These facilities were scattered among flowers and trees and between pools, making the city look like a garden.

Sui Xiong had made full use of his art talent in the design of this city. He didn’t dare to say that every brick was built per his designs, but the general layout of the city had been his idea. He had practically built this city by himself.

In the city, there were a variety of classical architectural styles, including Chinese-style palaces and gardens, Japanese-style pavilions and courtyards, and Greek-style temples and stone pillars… Even the relatively less influential schools of architecture could be seen.

If an architect from earth came there, he would probably have shook his head and complained, “What obvious plagiarism!” Or he might have praised it with a smile and said, “The designer of this city is quite interesting.” He might also have laughed at it and commented, “I see nothing original in this.”

But none of that would happen. In this world, Sui Xiong was the only space-traveller, so when they saw these different but beautiful buildings, everyone would just be amazed.

McHale was no exception.

Especially when he learned that these buildings had all been designed by His Majesty Void Mask, he became stunned for a while and said, “You deserve praise, Your Majesty Void Mask.”

Sui Xiong had heard this kind of comment countless times.

Most people would say it when they heard for the first time that he designed the Void City.

And rightfully so.

It wasn’t a secret that Void Mask was powerful. Actually, there were a lot of powerful people, but it didn’t mean that they were well-educated, had good taste and great design talent, and were good at many different design styles, like Sui Xiong.

In the human world, there were almost no architects who could make such a great design. Even among advanced fairies, who loved art deeply and were almost immortal, one couldn’t find such an outstanding designer.

Nor there could have been one among the Gods.

The God of Technics had visited the Void Mask City before, when it had still been called Void Mask Land. This God was worshipped by people for his great talent in design and building. He looked at the Void City carefully and left without saying a word.

According to Javier, the God of Technics had been worried since then. He seldom appeared in public and seemed to be on guard against something all the time.

Sui Xiong could clearly feel that people preferred his technique in architecture, so he was worried that the God of Technics would come and cause trouble for him. However, the God didn’t do anything.

The reason might have been that the core of that God’s clergy was manufacturing and inventing art works. Although architecture was also a part of his clergy, it wasn’t the most important part.

The God of Technics didn’t want to be an enemy of Void Mask, because it was against both his position and his own beliefs.

Nothing had happened since then, but at least Javier was very optimistic about a relationship between Sui Xiong and the God of Technics.

“Why are you so optimistic about our relationship?” Sui Xiong asked curiously.

“You’re so talented that you’re destined to create a new God system. Then, due to the clergy and recognition of belief, the God of Technics and I will be forced by human recognition of belief to join your God system,” Javier said.

“What? Does a human’s recognition of belief have that much power?”

“Of course. For the Nature God, or any God that intends to be the Nature God, the influence of human belief isn’t so obvious, but for pure Gods of Belief, such as the God of Technics and me, it has a great influence,” Javier said with a smile.

“Why haven’t I completely joined the Human God System? Because as the God of Celebration, I’ve monopolized the clergy of celebration. As for the clergy of enjoyment, it doesn’t belong to any one clan now. The God of Technics did the same. He monopolized the clergy of technics. Thus, if the humans generally believe that you’re the great master of enjoyment and technics, their recognition will turn into great power that can pull the God of Technics and me towards you, to be your subordinates. Similarly, if there’s a patron saint in the Northwest area in the future, he’ll naturally be your subordinate without any doubt, and it would be impossible for him to be independent or work for others.”

Sui Xiong thought about it for a long time and finally understood.

That also brought him a deeper understanding of belief and made him a bit cautious.

Sui Xiong was sure that the God of Technics didn’t like him. He might have hated Sui Xiong’s appearance or style, or he might just not have wanted to be someone else’s subordinate.

But according to what Javier had said, as long as the humans approved of Sui Xiong, what the God of Technics thought wasn’t important at all.

If they had been on earth, it would have been explained this way: If one understood something well, they would be willing to do it; if one didn’t understand something well, they would still have to do it and try to figure it out during the process.

But Sui Xiong became more cautious in his heart.

Although he wasn’t aggressive, he was kind of proud. Thinking that he would be forced by the recognition of belief and his clergy to become a subordinate of another God, he was a bit worried.

It wasn’t like “give me liberty or give me death,” but he just didn’t want to be forced by others to do things.

Since Leonard had come here, Sui Xiong had already had several long talks with him. Under Leonard’s persuasion, Sui Xiong gradually thought of his own idea.

It was indeed a good idea to obtain and occupy the clergy but not become a God of that type.

Sui Xiong didn’t care about the benefit brought by human belief. He was already one of the most powerful masters in this world, and he wasn’t afraid of anyone that wasn’t a Great Divine Power. Even if he met a Great Divine Power in a fight, he would be able to fight a few rounds with them.

He was sure he would lose, but that he could manage to escape.

With such strength, he had the confidence not to be bound by human belief, either.

However, Sui Xiong hadn’t really made up his mind to be a devil.

The largest disadvantage of being a devil was not to die easily or something like that, but the careless control of human belief. None of the devils in this world were able to take good care of their followers, because when they refused to take over the clergy, their belief system was badly damaged.

Thus, in this world, devils usually didn’t have too many followers. In other words, they couldn’t take care of too many of their followers.

Now Sui Xiong managed his belief system very well, but if he chose to be a devil, this system would be badly damaged. Then he would have trouble in either the cultivation of clergyman or spell education, or even feedback for his follower’s prayers.

According to Leonard’s explanation, Sui Xiong understood that it was like moving from an indoor wireless network relying on 100 yards of optical fiber to a satellite network system in a remote area, and both stability and efficiency would be greatly affected.

That was the key reason why Sui Xiong couldn’t make up his mind.

Of course, Leonard wanted Sui Xiong to become a devil, and he had tried to convince him many times.

Some of Sui Xiong’s friends, including Manissy and Javier, wanted Sui Xiong to be a legitimate God and had persuaded him many times, too. As for others, such as Yorgaardman and Morani, they didn’t care what Sui Xiong was. In their opinion, there wasn’t much difference.

That was Yan Yun’s opinion, too. No matter whether he accepted or rejected the clergy, he just had to be himself.

This was the most important premise for everything.

As for other things, there was no need to make a decision in a hurry. Sui Xiong wanted to think more about them.

After settling everything for McHale, Sui Xiong went back to his God’s Kingdom. He was studying the improvement of summoning and considering the question of accepting the clergy and becoming a God.

He had been thinking about that question for a long time, but he hadn’t come up with any ideas.

To be honest, he was somewhat indecisive on even not so urgent issues.

While he was thinking about these questions, something big happened.

Arcaian Pasteur had finished his meditation in seclusion and become a Legendary Master. He had decided to believe in Sui Xiong and become his electorate before, with Sui Xiong’s help, he had stepped into the Legendary Realm.

He had been living in the underground research room without eating, drinking, or taking a rest. With the help of Sui Xiong’s Divine Power, he tried to adjust himself and designed his own path in his own direction—medicine. Sui Xiong also helped him and gave him a lot of advice.

Now, he had finally completed the whole process of meditation and steadily stepped into the Legendary Realm.

The first thing he did after that was report to Sui Xiong and prepare to become a God.
