Chapter 1924: Chapter 1918: Shepherdess

“Is this the deity of Earth? How spectacular…”

“Snow White Sheep” Zeta Duna, now the “Guardian of the Fertile Field” and “Guardian God of the Pastoralist,” looked at the Silver City, which had expanded by at least tenfold, lost in thought.

Behind her were her people, led by Casca, the Jungle Hunters, bearing fatigue and the joy of a fruitful harvest, waiting for the process to enter the city.

Lu Ping’an’s forces don’t support idlers, especially not new ones… even though they are all demigods, Lu Ping’an’s and Chris’ “children” and the new ancient gods from the Underworld don’t receive the same treatment at all.

They, or It, need to prove their value, at least earn a ticket for themselves and their Family Clan.

Most of them are bewildered about the future; as the ancients, they never believed in promises, regardless of how beautiful the future Lu Ping’an promised, or how enticing the homeland in the documents appeared, they wouldn’t take it seriously before it becomes a reality.

Those ancient gods who didn’t follow Lu Ping’an’s request to rescue the mortals of this world were already planning to break ties once they got help…. Lu Ping’an didn’t care about them either, letting them stay in the courtyard to retire.

Among these ancient gods, “Snow White Sheep” Zeta Duna is an exception; she not only followed Lu Ping’an’s request for rescue, but also accepted the “appointment” of Lu Ping’an, acquiring a low-level divine position in the life system.

Protection from the pastoral Divine Grace in the Land of Life… this seems overly subtle, even useless authority, yet it is a fabricated authority from the path of “Beast Tamer” shared by Lady Chris.

Its strength is very weak, so weak it can be ignored, yet it can serve as a symbol to indicate that you belong to Lu Ping’an’s God Series, that you have joined the “Earth God Series.”

“When I made this decision, I didn’t think much. I just wanted to find a path for the Family Clan. The demise of this world is foreseeable; it’s over. We old beings can survive, but if the Family Clan doesn’t have a ship…. even if they get a ticket, they have to consider their future livelihood.”

There’s no love without reason, nor loyalty without gain or origin,

Zeta Duna worked hard, and the Beastman Tribe she brought back has already crushed the ranking of second place, and she has personally fought several arduous battles, showing the exceptional strength of an ancient god.

But as a cost, she was heavily suppressed by the world, and her power level dropped a tier.

Yes, that’s right, the Savior deity was suppressed by the world, nearly dying on the way.

Most of the time, it’s terrifying for the world to have self-consciousness, but in times of crisis, perhaps a slightly intelligent “ally” might still be better.

Among the new forces in the Silver City, a demigod successfully transformed into a high-level dancer and completed the ritual of heaven and earth, communicating with the World Consciousness…

“So miserable…..”

Zeta Duna recalled that colleague who was directly split in half, and sighed.

That Your Excellency didn’t die on the spot because “Main God Lu Ping’an” was there, as long as one isn’t completely dead, there’s hope… considering the reality of the endless expansion of the “Burning Legion,” even if dead, there seems to be hope.

However, that demigod has been lying there until now, and before completely losing consciousness, she kept muttering one sentence.

“The world… has gone mad! Ah ah!”

Obviously, linking with a world during the apocalypse is a high-risk thing, but developing to this stage has exceeded everyone’s expectations.

A normal link wouldn’t result in such a situation; for it to cause a demigod to end up like this can only mean the world directly attacked it.

Perhaps, as it said, the world has already fallen into hysteria, instinctively attacking everyone…

“It’s not that simple; it’s very likely that part of the world has been eroded, forming a new self… just like a split personality, fighting for the control of ‘the body’ among itself, and linking with its spirit body at this time…..”

After the trouble arose, deducing the reason wasn’t difficult. The failure of the witch dancer’s attempt itself was valuable feedback info.

Zeta Duna, who was in poor condition at this moment, also kind of believed in Main God Lu Ping’an’s speculation…..

“Already some outsiders are plotting to seize the world’s authority, using its rules to suppress the strong, targeting own saviors and resisters…”

When the nation and world are nearly destroyed, a common phenomenon is that traitors, defectors, and corruptors often occupy high positions, while few loyalists don’t even know whom to be loyal to, whom to serve to save…

“Welcome back, esteemed ‘Shepherd God Aries’ Your Excellency.” The guard, proactively salutes the demigod.

The uniform appearance and reverent eye indicated that the respect was not merely because of her identity, but also her actions of “salvation.”

Zeta Duna paused for a moment before recalling that it was her being addressed. She smiled and responded.

“Shepherd God…”

She touched her horns, walking down the middle of the street, and the crowds naturally parted before her.

Her form has transformed a lot; before, she resembled a standing beast-like ram, whereas now she has features akin to a “human” with some beast traits.

The golden robe wasn’t luxurious, though it’s a gift from the “Spider God,” providing protective performance capable of fending off erosion from divine blood.

The transformed white sheep priestess with silver hair and eyes, the golden crescent and silver sun rings hanging from her pointy ears, while hands, feet, and necks wear oak protective gear…. These were also gifts from the “Friend God,” without them, she might have fallen along the way.

Her transformation is considerable, even past kins need some time to adapt to the new form of their leader.

Probably the only unchanged thing are the hidden kindness and sadness in her dual pupils, those exquisite emotions that are overly luxurious for this world.

“Earth gods have accustomed themselves to using ‘codenames’ rather than ‘names’ to refer to themselves…. it truly has many benefits, which you will come to understand.”

In the middle of the street, that man with white pupils stands there, smiling on his face.

“Lu Ping’an Your Excellency.”

She nodded slightly, even as a demigod, not overly humble…. At their level, there’s no need to care much about details.

But just entering the city, the Main God led demigods to welcome her, yet its full of sincere details.

“Welcome to the Silver City, we hope it can become your new home…”

After nodding in response, Lu Ping’an then directed his focus to the group of refugees behind the Shepherd God… their condition was rather terrible, being able to reach here could already be considered fortunate.

Thus, he focused on comforting over there.

And the “great hero” Zeta Duna, who had been set aside, laughed.

“This is the deity of Earth… or is it merely him?”

This regard for mortals… no, it should be said, the kind-level goodness of empathy is the root cause for Zeta Duna being considered an outlier and ostracized.

Now, she seems to find she’s not the only one being an outlier…

“Perhaps from the start, the wrong one was the world, treating all life as losers and cannon fodder.”
