Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead-Chapter 1228 - 81 Hero Rebecca

Soon, a radiant light suddenly descended upon ‘Roriel.’

Even without being able to see this figure of light, one could feel that her demeanor had changed.

Especially the Dragon Queen, whose eyes were full of surprise and caution.

She cast a sidelong glance at Mr. Fang Hao beside her.

He had actually invited a deity to converse with him.

“You’re looking for me?”

Reopening her eyes, the witch’s tone became serious.

Mr. Fang Hao sat upright, his tone calm, “I would like to ask you about some matters.”

“Oh? Pertaining to what?”

“The other deities…”

The Sea God fell silent for a moment, then spoke, “Sure, but it’s not free.”

Mr. Fang Hao nodded; he hadn’t intended to freeload.

“That’s fine, what do I need to offer?”

“No rush, first tell me what you want to ask?” the Sea God continued to inquire.

Mr. Fang Hao straightforwardly asked, “What do you know about the ‘God of Deception’?”

“Not much, I hardly come into contact with him, only heard that his reputation isn’t very good. Many royal courts of various powers face internal chaos and the calamities of war, often with his meddling shadows,” said the Sea God after some thought.

“If I were to battle him, do you have any advice?”

“To battle?” The Sea God scrutinized him carefully and then said, “It’s not a wise decision to engage in battle with an established deity right now. Have you considered that he might be enticing you to make a move in order to find an opportunity to take your divinity?”

Once a divine war begins, it becomes an epic battle.

In the endless lifespans of the gods, their followers fight without ceasing, for decades or even centuries.

After a divine war.

The victor takes everything from the other, including their divinity, while the loser falls from the divine pedestal, losing both eternity and their power.

Yet, at this moment, Mr. Fang Hao, as a newly ascended deity.

It was rather remarkable that the established deities hadn’t already targeted him, let alone considering launching an attack on another, in the Sea God’s view, that would not be a wise decision.

Mr. Fang Hao understood this point, but when the enemy came knocking at his door, avoiding conflict with the other party was not an option.

“Yes, I understand that, but I would still like to hear more.”

“Um,” the Sea God nodded and after pondering for a bit, said: “From what I’ve heard, the God of Deception is adept at trickery and manipulating hearts. When battling him, one must be vigilant of defenses against mental and spiritual attacks…”

The Sea God had not encountered the God of Deception personally.

Or to say, there was very little contact between the majority of deities.

Ascension to godhood does not equate to safety.

Covetous glances among one another are all too common.

Mr. Fang Hao and the Sea God conversed for a while, as the Dragon Queen and Rolana also listened intently by the side.

The Dragon Queen felt that Mr. Fang Hao was so unfamiliar.

Speaking to a deity so casually as if they were equals.

Moreover, she had heard the Sea God mention the term ‘newly ascended deity,’ and the God of Deception had said something similar the day before.

Has this kid become a god?

Or is he representing a new deity?

“Is there anything else you need?” Having shared all she knew, the Sea God asked once more.

“That’s all for now. So, for today’s information, what compensation do I owe?” Mr. Fang Hao wasn’t clear on what deities needed.

“I didn’t really answer anything; consider it a small heads-up,” the Sea God said.

Mr. Fang Hao nodded, “Um, if you need help with anything, feel free to seek me out.”

“Will do!”

The Sea God nodded again, and the divine light on her body instantly vanished.

Witch ‘Roriel’ once more showed a respectful demeanor, “My lord, do you have any further commands?”

Mr. Fang Hao spoke, “In a while, I will send over two divine statues; when the time comes, you can have someone place them behind the statue of the Sea God.”

“Very well, then I shall take my leave.”

“Um, also call the Sea King over.”

“Yes, my lord.”

The witch departed.

Soon, the black-armored Sea King, built like a fitness coach with a thick beard, entered.

“My lord, what are your orders?” The Sea King’s demeanor was equally respectful.

“I want two types of divine statues to be amplified in every temple on the islands. I will gradually provide you with these statues…” Mr. Fang Hao stated directly.

“Divine statues?”

“Is there a problem?”

“None at all, I’ll immediately give the orders to add the statues on each island,” the Sea King promptly replied.

“Good, let’s go. I’ll hand over the statues to you.”

Stepping out of the Royal Palace, Mr. Fang Hao exchanged the divine statues of the two women.

There were more of Rolana’s, while the Dragon Queen only had two, which were rushed out by the stonemason the previous night.

After giving a few instructions to the Sea King.

Mr. Fang Hao led the two women away once again.

…

Upon returning to the lord’s mansion.

The Dragon Queen didn’t ask much.

Foll𝑜w current novℯls on ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm.

Instead, she expressed that she would stay here for a while longer, and would remain until she had thought of a solution to the current crisis.

Mr. Fang Hao didn’t say much either.

She stayed, which was also a form of security for the main city.

The Dragon Queen returned to her dwelling, and Rolana naturally sat in his lap.

Fang Hao wrapped an arm around her and asked, “What did your mother say yesterday?”

“Ha!” Rolana yawned, “What else could she say? She scolded me and told you to figure out a solution as soon as possible, or she would come over and beat you up…”

Damn…

That mother-in-law seems a bit fierce.

“Cough! So, if we were to deal with the ‘God of Deception,’ would your mother help?” Fang Hao asked directly, stating his thoughts.

He had sent Rolana back to seek reinforcements.

Rolana thought for a moment and said, “She should, after all, the entire Blood Clan is also under threat now.”

“Good, that’s reassuring.”

Rolana stood up, “I’m going back to my room to rest. Is the sun too strong today?”

…

After dinner.

The maids went off to train, leaving the lord’s hall empty once again.

Fang Hao strolled through a transmigrator shop while thinking about how to kill the God of Deception.

Or, to figure out how to drag someone else under the bus to distract the God of Deception.

Woo!

Just then, the Sound-transmitting Shell emitted a beep.

It was Rebecca!

Since she had entered the ‘Hall Cave Dwelling,’ some time had passed, and Fang Hao even suspected that she had been kidnapped.

He put the Shell to his ear and heard Rebecca’s voice, which brought him relief.

“Hi, is our lord in?”

Fang Hao unconsciously smiled.

To be honest, he really missed her.

“I was just thinking about you!”

“Is it good timing on my part, or have you been thinking of me all this time?” said a gentle voice on the other end.

From Rebecca’s tone, it seemed that she wasn’t facing any issues on her side.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so relaxed, poking fun at him.

“The kind you think about at night!”

There was silence for two seconds on the other side, then she replied, “I missed you too.”

Fang Hao didn’t ask where she missed him.

Instead, he asked, “How are things on your end? Are the people from the Hall of Justice causing you trouble? If anyone bullies you, I’ll come and get revenge for you.”

“It’s going smoothly on my side, but for now, the Hall of Justice doesn’t allow me to leave.”

Fang Hao furrowed his brow; this was looking for trouble.

Before Fang Hao could lose his temper, the second message came through.

It said, “They’re not making things difficult for me; everything is normal. But they would like to meet you, to have a proper talk.”

“How can we meet? Where are you? I’ll bring people over tonight to rescue you.”

“Don’t! Talking might not be a bad thing. They have asked to meet you tomorrow at the Trade Alliance. Do you have time?” Rebecca immediately replied.

In the Trade Alliance, the various powers were still somewhat restrained.

Apart from him and the Dragon Clan, no one else had broken that rule.

Fang Hao thought about it and decided that meeting and chatting wouldn’t be a bad idea, so he agreed, “Okay, the Succubus Tavern tomorrow. Tell them to go there.”

“Good, let’s settle on tomorrow.”

The two of them chatted sweetly for a while before ending the conversation.

…

The next day, early in the morning.

Fang Hao, accompanied by Rolana and two black-armored sisters, headed to the headquarters of the Trade Alliance.

They arrived at the designated private room.

Upon opening the door, he saw several humans dressed in the armor of the Hall of Justice sitting in the room.

Among them was Rebecca, whom he had not seen for a long time, and the golden-armored hero, Aseti.

Seeing Rebecca.

A hint of a smile appeared on Rolana’s normally cold face.

Brave Saint Tone – Rebecca (Orange Tier 8 Hero).

Fang Hao was stunned.

The Hall of Justice was that impressive? They had turned Rebecca into an Orange Tier 8 hero.

Seemed like a gift of divine prowess.

Cough cough!!

Seeing everyone’s gaze upon him, Rebecca slowly rose to her feet and introduced, “This is Miss Phoenix from the Hall of Justice.”

Then, she introduced Fang Hao, “This is my husband, Fang Hao.”

Flame Dawn-Phoenix (Dark Gold Tier 4).

Fang Hao had seen this woman before.

She was the human commander of the Trade Alliance army during the combat between the Dragon Queen and Rolana.

That it was her was good.

Having seen Rolana and the black-armored sisters, she helped avoid some awkward introductory formalities.

Phoenix’s gaze flickered, clearly recognizing Rolana.

She managed a smile and said, “Mr. Fang Hao, please have a seat.”

Fang Hao nodded and sat down, starting straight away, “I must thank the Hall of Justice for looking after my wife these past days.”

“Uh, it’s nothing. Mrs. Rebecca is an imminent member of the human faction, and we naturally provide protection and attention,” Phoenix said, her gaze turning to him.

“Of course, my wife is a supporter of the human faction,” Fang Hao said, looking back at her.

Phoenix smiled and nodded, then continued, “Mr. Fang Hao, I won’t beat around the bush. The reason I asked you here is just to inquire about your attitude towards the human faction.”

Fang Hao looked at her seriously and said, “My attitude towards humans is naturally friendly, of course, on the condition that there is no animosity between the human faction and us.”

“Of course, Mr. Fang Hao, what do you think about the Hundred Cities Federation? After all, your wife is one of them, ruling over a human city,” Phoenix continued.

Speaking up to now, Fang Hao had understood.

Plainly put, they were here to gauge his attitude towards the Hundred Cities Federation.

The Hundred Cities were too close to Fang Hao’s territory, and he could take over the Federation any time.

Fang Hao glanced at Rebecca sitting beside him.

Then, with a smile, he said, “No opinion, but I hope my wife can become the ruling leader of the Hundred Cities Federation.”
