Surviving The Fourth Calamity

Capítulo 1698: Chapter 275

‘Snow Cloud Peak’ slowly released his clenched fist: “Chief Steward Lu really reacts quickly. Truly, it’s those with experience who have a strong capacity for endurance!”

‘Lu Huayu’ gave him a gentle smile: “I won’t get angry.

Earning as much as you work is the self-cultivation of the working class. I can assure that every bit of my effort will receive a corresponding return.

Of course, sometimes it’s money, other times feelings, but it’s always something I want.

If you’re angry, it’s naturally because you feel the reward you’ve received doesn’t match your contribution… Ah~ Alliance Leader~

Always having to sacrifice a bit of the inside for the sake of a glamorous appearance. Keep it up~ Snow Alliance Leader.”

‘Snow Cloud Peak’ looked at him steadily and then smiled slightly: “I’m now really a bit curious about Lady Two Lines of Bamboo.

In the past, I always thought your story was just a beautiful tale of a scoundrel and a wicked woman tormenting each other.

Now, I think it really seems more like mutual grooming.”

“Besides her, what else can you use to provoke me?” ‘Lu Huayu’ spread his hands, looking innocent, “Unfortunately, it’s been too long, and I’ve already become resistant.

So I tell you~

All pain and torment, once you get used to it, becomes life.”

‘Snow Cloud Peak’ rolled his eyes silently: “Take back your fallacious argument~ I can live like a person, so why live like a dead person?”

‘Lu Huayu’ slouched on the couch: “That’s why I say, people from different backgrounds feel differently about many things.

Self-respect is indeed a luxury.”

‘Snow Cloud Peak’ said dismissively: “Humans, the best thing is not to find excuses for one’s degeneration; otherwise, they will just keep sliding downward.”

‘Lu Huayu’ peeked at Snow Old Dog from under the arm covering his eyes… When this guy talks like this, he’s overly confident, which only proves he’s indeed encountered many misfortunes and has struggled hard to overcome them. At least in his mind, he feels he’s overcome crises that could have easily pushed him into the abyss.

Though Old Dog is indeed a bit of a dog in some aspects, he does understand human relationships and worldly matters. He’s just missing a certain nerve, and he himself believes that even if he doesn’t understand these things, it won’t affect any important matters.

‘Lu Huayu’ thought about the various secrets dug up from nooks and crannies, especially when ‘End of the World Romance’ wanted to deal with Snow Old Dog, and some knocking of heads against iron plates, he could more or less guess a bit.

In their country, for an event that forces a soldier like Old Dog to retire, even after so many years, it seems there are still aftereffects. Such events would usually be repeatedly broadcast on the news channel.

He might have seen this guy’s… ah, back view sometime.

After all, incidents usually happen on border stars, especially those tourist-open border stars.

This does make one understand a bit of this guy’s seemingly innate stubbornness and naivety, likely brought out from the military camp.

And growing up from a young age in the military camp… it had to be one of those border military camps where even mother rats were scarce.

‘Lu Huayu’ silently covered his eyes with his arm again.

Even though his life, slowly climbing up from the mud, doesn’t have much to say for it, every ladder he could climb depended on the army’s self-sacrifice to manifest in the void.

So, even though he could attack Snow Old Dog from his soft spot, ‘Lu Huayu’ doesn’t plan to do so.

“So, how do you plan to tell Ambori that the Goddess of the Sea might be too much for her to swallow?” Snow Cloud Peak’s casual words broke the calm, also suddenly extinguishing the subtle sense of recognition rising in Chief Steward Lu’s heart.

This sort of thing, even if it hadn’t happened, the army wouldn’t sit still for it!

He suddenly sat up: “Can’t I stay in this place of yours?”

Snow Cloud Peak lightly lifted his chin: “I’m simply reminding you, don’t let Ambori wait in agony like a Husband-waiting Rock.”

“Huh~ brushing your teeth could kill you?” ‘Lu Huayu’ coldly replied.

To this level of provocation, ‘Snow Cloud Peak’ was already able to let it pass by like a breeze, so he just seriously asked: “You should understand what I’m saying.

If it’s just the appearance of the World of Aesces controlled by Gaia, then it’s indeed a great tonic for Ambori.

But… that’s Typhon… truly swallowing him would be no different from eating a Demon Lord’s corpse.

Just a drop of blood not even the size of a fingernail, and Athena created a monster as powerful as Medusa… and that was one of the weaker snake heads out of Typhon’s hundred heads.

You painstakingly pulled Ambori out of absolute chaos a little…”

His latter words weren’t spoken, but both of them understood.

In the presence of such immense power, possibly allowing her to surpass Rose in an instant, even comparable to the past Talos, would Ambori still choose the ‘Lu Huayu’ who wants to lead her down the right path?

Of course, ‘Lu Huayu’ could hide it from her, but could this kind of thing truly be hidden forever?

Especially with Rose lurking and watching.

Don’t say that Typhon’s strength is very weak now.

The most terrifying thing about that hundred-headed monster is its unlimited potential for growth… similar to the attribute of the Bottomless Abyss.

As long as it keeps devouring, whether it’s flesh or energy, its growth is essentially limitless.

Otherwise, a newly born Typhon wouldn’t have taken Zeus’s Hammer of Thunder and directly wiped out all of Mount Olympia.

The most terrifying thing is, it can devour Chaotic Power.

“Anyway, you don’t really need to worry too much.” ‘Snow Cloud Peak’ casually gave a hint, “Do you think something so terrifying, which world would allow its existence?”

“What do you mean?” ‘Lu Huayu’ immediately perked up.

“Hill, after hearing about this matter, asked Aesces and Triton for a lot of Sea God’s fragment pieces from various regions… those that fell off that giant monster back then.

Although those things merge into water once they fall into the sea, the World Master and Sea God still have the ability to collect a portion of it.

After his, and those two deities’ confirmation, now this seems to be… a part of Typhon’s body, probably just a hand, that kind of thing.

Though it has the same properties, that kind of limitless expansion ability is significantly restricted.

Moreover, once you swallow that hand, you lose the ability to think, only knowing to devour. As for followers~ divinity~ all rely on the natural reaction of Divine Fire, her Divine Soul from the beginning just turned into nourishment.

It’s quite troublesome, but as long as you eliminate her before she grows enough to threaten the world, it’s fine.”

‘Lu Huayu’ nodded in enlightenment, then suddenly stood up: “Are you messing with me?”

‘Snow Cloud Peak’ knows he’s someone who thinks a lot, yet still used the method most likely to cause him to worry to tell him!

If he’d known earlier about this thing, why worry about Ambori?

Ambori isn’t stupid, how could she give up her sanity for power that could be eliminated at any time!

“Ah~ now, do you think I look quite suitable with glasses too? Not at all like reading glasses, right?” ‘Snow Cloud Peak’ said with a smile.

“凸(艹皿艹)! Snow Old Dog, wait for me!” ‘Lu Huayu’ kicked the sofa and charged angrily down the stairs.

‘Snow Cloud Peak’ tilted his head, gesturing theatrically: “Ah~ you haven’t told me, compared to Two Lines of Bamboo, which one is more useful?”

—————–

‘Lu Huayu’ angrily rushed out of the Command Tower.

Then he slowed his steps in front of the hills and fields of Lily of the Valley and Windmill Jasmine.

Starting from the day before yesterday, two types of flower vines that were only present in some areas suddenly became ubiquitous.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have run to ‘Snow Cloud Peak’ to test.

There’s no way, because he’s nervous… whether it’s Ambori or himself, both are slightly… ah~ naturally timid in front of that Child of Nature.

Especially with Windmill Jasmine already climbing up the city gates, and lots of vines in between that look familiar… really resemble those controllers on the White Dragon’s ankles.

Even Ambori would be a bit apprehensive about that thing.

But now it seems that for Hill, only those chaos monsters that defy nature and are artificially created are what he fears killing too slowly!

Well, that’s good.

They, Ambori, obviously don’t have the guts to face Little Bear head-on before returning to Intermediate Divine Power.

Sigh~

How on earth did Teraxil, just an intermediate world, create someone like Hill?

He sighed softly and decided to calm down his emotions before returning to the seaside.

Otherwise, Ambori would surely panic and be at a loss.

Then she might misjudge and can’t figure out what she truly wants, left only with a mad pursuit of power.

She really easily… in essence, it’s just a dog jumping over a wall when desperate.

Yet it hasn’t reached that point.

Truly don’t understand, she’s clearly so timid, how does she manage to act so arrogant?

Little Bear’s ability is absent, yet she lives like a panda.

‘Lu Huayu’ glanced again at the Magic Tower on the cliff before walking out the city gates.

If not for the mistakes made before, why suffer today?

In fact, he was among the earliest to come into contact with Hill’s Undead Tribe!

Even if he couldn’t receive the same treatment as the Black Rose, had he brushed up his goodwill score from the start, he wouldn’t be worse off than those family members in Proud Sky Alliance who’ve never even seen Hill’s face.

Although Hill prefers people with straightforward personalities, he’s not someone who categorizes people based on personal preferences.

He might treat those he likes a bit better, but he definitely won’t easily violate his principles.

Sigh~

‘Lu Huayu’ shook his head. Things have already turned out like this, and even if it can’t be remedied, he cannot choose to give up.

He must carefully think of a way.

Even ‘Perfect Bald’ can now face things with a smile, there’s no harm in showing more respect to a good person like Hill?

It’s certainly better than being messed with by Old Dog again next time.
