Chapter 418: Chapter 420: The Fatty Sheep That Delivers Itself, The Current Development of Dawn City (10,000-Word Mega Chapter)

Watching Duke O’Keilly kneeling on the ground, Lide’s expression was quite subtle.

He did not know how noble this identity as Lord Ilo had become in the eyes of Duke O’Keilly after the battle at Risier City, and the recent battle at Anos City had amplified this sentiment tenfold.

In the eyes of Duke O’Keilly, the Lide standing before him was a True God descended upon the world, possessing endless power.

Facing the increasingly urgent situation, Green City needed such a strong and towering presence for protection. Yearning inwardly for help and adding to that the frighteningly lofty reputation of Lord Ilo, the ruler of the south could not help but act in such a manner.

Although he did not understand the motive behind Duke O’Keilly’s actions, since the other had already knelt, Lide naturally would not be polite.

“O’Keilly, stand.”

“As you command, Lord…”

After O’Keilly stood up, he cautiously assessed Lide, who wore a pure white priest’s robe that bestowed on him an elegant and dignified air. His incredibly handsome visage was of a mere youth in his early twenties.

Most notable was the faint holy light emanating from Lide, making it feel as if the warm sunshine of a winter’s day was shining upon those nearby, comforting and warm.

“O’Keilly, you’ve sought an audience with me. What is your purpose?”

Lide’s tone was calm and indifferent, his gaze upon O’Keilly like that of an adult watching a child…

A middle-aged man in his fifties being observed in such a manner by a younger man who appeared only to be in his twenties made for an incongruous scene.

But neither thought anything amiss, given that Lide was playing the role of a deity, the great God of Dawn—Lord Ilo, who lived for millions of years. Not acting with a bit of divine demeanor would really be too embarrassing.

Hearing Lide’s indifferent query, Duke O’Keilly felt an unexpected sense of privilege.

Having a conversation with such a powerful divine being had never happened before. Although he held a high position within the God of Nobles Sect, he never had the chance to speak face-to-face with a deity.

He quickly spoke up.

“Lord, the Ancient Day is about to descend, and the entire Nolan Empire will face an unprecedented disaster…”

Upon hearing this, Lide felt that something was amiss and interrupted, “O’Keilly, the descent of the Ancient Day is a choice of fate. I cannot change it, and no one else can either…”

Hopefully, this guy wasn’t asking him to prevent the descent of the Ancient Day. That thing was a pitfall, and he certainly didn’t have the capacity for it.

Duke O’Keilly shook his head, his blue eyes filled with hope as he looked at him.

“Lord, I am aware that the Ancient Day’s arrival is unstoppable, and I do not wish for you to halt it.

Rather, it is my desire to plead for your protection over Green City—to protect the millions of residents when the Ancient Day comes…”

Protect Green City?

Upon hearing this, Lide suddenly took interest. He’d been worrying about how to spread the Dawn Sect; it seemed like a pillow had been delivered just as he was dozing off.

Although he was very interested inwardly, his exterior remained impassive, and he even furrowed his brows.

“O’Keilly, you should know that I once lived in Green City for a time.”

Duke O’Keilly nodded. The matter of Lord Ilo being the ruler of the Dark Contract was not a secret, and he had known it for quite some time.

But back then, before the battle of Risier City began, no one imagined that the head of an Underground Force in Green City could be a great deity.

“Do you know why I chose to live in hiding there?”

At this question, Duke O’Keilly’s eyes widened slightly. After pondering for a moment and with a bitter smile, he shook his head; how could he presume to grasp the actions of a deity?

“Lord, please forgive my ignorance. Were you living a mortal life to comprehend higher levels of power?”

A spark lit up in Lide’s eyes; this explanation was good, why hadn’t he thought of that?

He coughed lightly, nodding and then slowly shaking his head.

“There is that reason…” he agreed shamelessly, “but more importantly, I descended to the Main Plane ahead of time because I sensed the coming of the Ancient Day.

However, I suffered considerable damage in the process, and my power is not as invincible as you imagine.

During this time, I have been searching for ways to recover my strength. Conquering Green City’s Underground Force was merely an effort to use them to find the Magic Materials I need…”

Oh, I see, thought Duke O’Keilly, his face lighting up with sudden understanding; he hadn’t expected such a secret.

Recovering his composure, his eyes brightened slightly—Lord Ilo was injured??

Far from being disappointed, his heart grew even more fervent.

The fact that the other party was injured meant he could lend a hand. If Lord Ilo had no desires or needs, what could Green City offer to attract his protection?

Moreover, the ability to freeze an entire city with a mere gesture, instantly killing the God of Plague… If he wasn’t injured, how powerful must he be?

If he could help the other recover, did that not mean that during the upcoming period, Green City would surely gain the protection of a true Divine?

By the Creator God above, he had seen hope.

The excitement in his heart immediately spread to his face, and Duke O’Kelly nearly laughed out loud.

But upon seeing Lide’s slightly furrowed brow, he immediately suppressed the joy in his heart, and his face took on a very solemn expression the next second.

“Lord Ilo, you have severed the power of the Evil God for the civilians of the southern province, and furthermore, you have saved Anos City. This is a great deed worthy of being sung by all life in the Glory Main Plane.

On behalf of the Southern Province and the Nolan Royal Family, I offer our thanks.”

After finishing, he bowed deeply, as if his words were coming from the bottom of his heart, his acting so superb Lide couldn’t help but praise him—old fox indeed; these nobles were no easy marks.

After a session of lofty talk, Duke O’Kelly stood up and, with sincere intent, said to Lide,

“Your Highness, for the sacrifices you’ve made for my subjects, I, O’Kelly Nolan, simply cannot stand by and do nothing.

What do you require to heal your wounds? As long as it’s within my power to find, even if I must use all of Green City’s resources, I shall spare no effort!!”
