The Ordinary Me is Worshipped as a Deity by the Extraordinary Them-Chapter 26 - A Mess

Su Li felt his hair stand on end under Lan Zhe’s gaze and couldn’t help but shrink behind Mark.

Don’t make things too difficult for a sick patient, okay? Interpreting glances is not something Su Li can do.

Fortunately, Lan Zhe understood what he meant.

And he planned to act according to the plan.

But considering that the person who proposed the plan was currently too weak, Lan Zhe had no choice but to bring Su Li and the others to his base.

Elements had no effect on Su Li’s body, so naturally, they couldn’t use elemental factors to adjust his condition.

However, Cyril told Lan Zhe that he would act according to Su Li’s plan and go find those beggars to spread “rumors.” Correspondingly, Mark would stay at “home” to take care of Su Li, and of course, Lan Zhe couldn’t just do nothing, so the matter of finding medicinal herbs to treat Su Li was pushed to Lan Zhe.

The latter clicked his tongue with a look of disgust and launched a personal attack on Su Li. “How can you be so weak?”

Su Li: …I’m really sorry for being so weak!

But ever since Lan Zhe was labeled as tsundere by Su Li, Su Li knew that this person’s personality was no different from a dead rat in the sewer.

“If you can’t speak, you can choose to remain silent.”

“But you’re really weak.”

.....

Mark, who was standing beside him, felt that Su Li might jump out of bed at any time to kick Lan Zhe in the knee.

“You should go find the herbs. I’ll take care of Mr. Su Li.” Mark said calmly.

Whether Su Li would jump up and kick Lan Zhe in the knee wasn’t the point. The point was that Mark was worried that Su Li would be so angry that he couldn’t eat.

To prevent Su Li from feeling uncomfortable, he could only drive Lan Zhe away.

Lan Zhe leaned against the door frame and clicked his tongue again in disgust. He glanced at Su Li, and in that gaze was three parts scrutiny, three parts fear, three parts curiosity, and a trace of awe that Lan Zhe himself didn’t know.

Su Li couldn’t understand. Not only couldn’t he understand, but he also suspected that Lan Zhe was dissatisfied with him somewhere, so he could only turn his head and stare blankly at Mark, saying, “That look of his…does he have a problem with me?”

Mark: …

How should an honest person explain this?

The honest person gave up on the spot.

“It should be, it should… be so.” Mark lowered his head, mainly because Mark’s vocabulary was not enough for him to assemble Lan Zhe’s increasingly strange and gradually perverted gaze into meaning with his eyes.

Therefore, when Mark was talking nonsense to deal with it, he also had the idea that Su Li should be able to understand.

However, the result…

Su Li believed it.

When it came to treating his own people, Su Li never hesitated to give his trust.

So he thought very naturally…

“This person doesn’t like me, I’ll stay away from him next time.” – Su Li.

That night, Su Li, who ate a bitter and extremely effective medicine, deepened Lan Zhe’s impression of him.

Cyril returned to the base and heard Mark say that Lan Zhe had given Su Li a very expensive medicinal herb, with a market value of at least tens of thousands of gold coins, and the whole person was stunned.

He said blankly and strangely. “Ordinary colds and fevers shouldn’t require this level of medicinal herb.”

Lan Zhe snorted coldly. “You know, how could I not know.”

Lan Zhe knew very well how precious the thing he took out was. That herb, if it flowed into the market, could cause many high-level elementalists to go crazy and scramble for it, but he was not so cruel as to squeeze a child who was almost burned into a fool by a high fever.

And once again, he thought Egbert was very sick.

How on earth could he keep calling a child ‘lord’ with such fervor?

Suppressing the thought that made his skin crawl, Lan Zhe looked at Su Li, who was curled up in bed and fast asleep, and inexplicably felt a sense of world-weariness.

This mentality was especially due to the fact that the current situation was exactly as Su Li had predicted.

They met in the morning. After being persuaded by Su Li, they were taken back to his base, and Cyril started acting in the morning.

That afternoon, when the rumors had begun to spread on a small scale, the people of the united forces happened to return from the Beast Forest, looking rather disheveled.

The people of the Church of Light never imagined that even after dispatching so many Knights of Light, their plan hadn’t gone as expected.

However, they did get new information.

That is, the “traitor” was still alive.

In the eyes of the church people, Egbert had been in the Beast Forest for a long time. Egbert’s initial purpose in coming to Jisuo Town was to enter the Beast Forest, and the Knights of Light all knew this.

They just didn’t expect him to be alive now.

Egbert himself didn’t know that before meeting Su Li, when the Knights of Light were forcing him here, their goal was to send him to the Crystal Winged Dragon.

Su Li’s speculation was completely correct. The child that the Crystal Winged Dragon had personally rescued from Siliqing City had been dealt with by the church people when he was taken to that city.

The bishop knew very well that Egbert was not so foolish as to willingly take the blame and die.

Making him alienated and forced to bear the title of traitor was, after all, just part of the plan.

Later, guiding a large number of Knights of Light to pursue and kill him was mainly not to kill him directly, but to limit Egbert’s physical strength and keep him in a state of physical injury.

Even this was just to make Egbert mentally collapse and unconsciously feel that the Beast Forest might be the last, desperate escape route.

But in fact, after the bishop had someone use the weapon that Egbert had used for many years to specifically deal with the Crystal Winged Dragon’s only remaining child, entering the Beast Forest was destined to be a dead end.

Because the information left on that dead egg would inevitably drive the Crystal Winged Dragon into madness.

Under normal circumstances, once Egbert stepped into the Beast Forest, it was equivalent to stepping into a real dead end.

Therefore, before seeing Egbert alive and kicking with their own eyes, the people of the church thought that Egbert had long been torn to pieces by the Crystal Winged Dragon.

Although the plan was well-designed and even considered all aspects, who would have known that the dignified Son of Light could be intercepted by a beggar.

A long time had passed since the incident of Su Li being kidnapped by Mark, but during this period, Egbert’s strength had improved visibly.

When he chose to replace Lan Zhe and tell the Crystal Winged Dragon the truth, the dragon, as expected, fought him to the death.

It just so happened that Egbert’s current strength could barely suppress the Crystal Winged Dragon.

The noise of their fight was too loud, and it just happened to coincide with the united forces.

The Crystal Winged Dragon originally thought that it would die without a doubt, and was already prepared to self-destruct on the spot. How could it know that when it was being besieged, Egbert, whom it regarded as an enemy, could still help it out.

However, it was precisely because of this that Eg finally got a chance to explain the truth.

The united forces returned in disarray and brought news of the traitor, and coupled with the timely rumors in the city, the credibility of the rumors was pushed to a new level.

Therefore, even though it was early the next morning, Lan Zhe could hear people chattering nearby without even leaving the door.

“Why is there still a greater danger ahead? Could it be that we’re really going to die here completely?”

“It’s because there’s a greater danger ahead that the God of Light has instructed so many knights to come protect us. I just don’t know why they didn’t tell us the truth.”

A believer thought on the bright side. “Maybe it’s because they’re worried that we’ll worry needlessly, so they simply hid the news.”

“You think too highly of them. Why don’t you think about it, when a greater crisis really comes, we who don’t even know the truth will only die unclearly.”

“Are you questioning the God of Light?”

“What do you mean? I’m clearly just talking about those people from the church, why do you say I’m questioning the God of Light.”

Even the people on the roadside were almost ready to fight because of this rumor.

Lan Zhe had nothing to say. After guarding Su Li for a whole night and confirming that he was alive and kicking, he breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he felt a tingling sensation on his scalp and a chill down his spine.

Su Li, who was lying on the bed, also opened his eyes with the arrival of the morning.

Su Li, who was still unclear about the value of the medicine that was so bitter that his soul seemed to have left his body, only felt that although it was bitter, it did indeed meet the condition of good medicine being bitter.

At this moment, Su Li was just thinking that even if Lan Zhe had a grudge against him, it didn’t matter as long as the plan could proceed as planned.

Mark, who brought water for Su Li to wash up, was surprised to understand Su Li’s expression. Mark then looked at Lan Zhe beside him, who instinctively wanted to stay away from Su Li but couldn’t help but stay by his side.

The honest man could only scratch his head and smiled awkwardly at Lan Zhe, saying, “I’m… sorry.”

Let’s just blame you for the fact that Su Li thinks you don’t like him.

—Mainly because Mark really didn’t know how to explain it.

Lan Zhe… Lan Zhe looked puzzled.

Speaking of which, because of the exposure of the traitor’s information yesterday, the united forces temporarily had no intention of entering the Beast Forest again.

Su Li also took the opportunity to check on Roy’s condition and felt relieved when he found that he was still alive.

“Should we take the initiative?” Lan Zhe stood beside Su Li and scratched his face with his left thumb.

“No need.” Su Li shook his head directly, “My plan and speculation may seem too crude, but as long as the person who comes doesn’t have the ability to directly crush Egbert unilaterally, then everything will proceed according to plan.”

The person beside him was someone who could fight Egbert evenly.

No problem.

Although squatting on the side of the house to observe the two choices and finding that they had added an extra step, he was a little surprised.

It wasn’t the bishop who came, but the Son of Light who currently only existed in speculation.

A passerby exclaimed in surprise, “This is a Son of Light with a 100% affinity for light elements, something that is rarely seen in a thousand years!”

Su Li looked up at Lan Zhe, unaware, and asked, “Is he very strong?”

The latter smiled slightly with a hint of disdain, “I’ve never heard of this Son of Light before.”

Su Li suddenly realized.

Since Lan Zhe, who was as strong as Egbert, had never even heard of him, it could be inferred that this Son of Light was the legendary hidden Son of Light.

To extend the point, as long as he was captured, the bishop would definitely come.
