CHAPTER 43: CHAPTER 41: KEEPING A SPARE TYRE

Knock, knock, knock!

In the middle of the night, Susan was reading a book in her room when she suddenly heard a noise from outside.

Susan went to the door and looked through the peephole. The lights in the hallway came on, revealing a slender..... elf??

Bump.

The elf suddenly collapsed at the doorstep.

Susan was stunned, instinctively recalling scenes from mysterious extraordinary worlds like "Twilight" and "Harry Potter".

Could it be that she’s being chased by vampires, werewolves, or other such creatures?

Susan was no fool; being well-educated, exceptionally smart, and someone who often used her wits in tussles with her girlfriend and mom, she realized the potential danger instantly.

However!

A hero rescues the beauty.

Click.

She opened the door and quickly pulled the person inside.

"She’s so soft, with a peachy fragrance. Just one touch and I knew she wasn’t human."

Susan’s thoughts were in turmoil, instantly understanding that the elf was real and not some prank.

Without closing the door, like catching a thief, she briskly ran outside to spray air freshener everywhere, even spraying around the path outside her home to eliminate any possible scent traces, before quickly running back inside.

Bang!

Eliminating scents and traces, she skillfully and efficiently closed the door. Handling the scene was very professional.

Two minutes later.

Susan looked at the awakened Elf Saintess and tried to communicate, but the other party didn’t understand Earth’s language at all.

Just as Susan was at a loss, the Elf Goddess brought her head close to Susan’s forehead:

"Hello, human."

A faint consciousness wave was transmitted.

Mind communication!

Susan was instantly thrilled, "Are you really an elf? Can you cure cancer?"

"I... am currently very weak... my strength is less than one percent, I’ve basically lost my magical abilities... I don’t remember much... I crossed into this world... I need to recuperate..."

The Elf Saintess started explaining her origins.

She came from a vast Otherworld with an Elf Ancient Tree, where countless species lived.

Her loyalty was to the Elf God under the Light Creator God’s command.

She accidentally encountered a pursuit, crossed the world’s rift, and ended up in this world, just receiving the divine oracle:

To establish a covert medical force in this Otherworld, since evil forces, vampires, and werewolves might infiltrate this world too...

Susan listened with sparkling eyes.

Vampires, werewolves, elves, dwarves, giant dragons.

Although she didn’t read Huaxia web novels, she knew this was practically a protagonist beginning with an extraordinary encounter.

She would hide this extremely beautiful Elf Saintess in her home for healing, act as a surrogate caretaker, and secretly help her build a force... and then treat her girlfriend’s cancer.

Even...

She looked at the pure and juicy Elf Girl with a desire to get close to her.

"No! I can’t do this!"

She tried to convince herself and changed the subject:

"You should rest for a while and learn the human language, understand this world before making plans."

"Yes." The elf lady indeed shouldn’t move much now.

After all, she was just adjusting her mind, like a paralyzed patient just learning to walk, staggering.

And Li Qing didn’t intend to make the Elf Goddess do anything.

Sending her over was for this newborn infant to adapt to the body, learn to walk, jump, and acquire knowledge and writing of this world.

In fact, this was the best choice.

After waking her up, she couldn’t keep studying at home, right?

Susan, just a convenient nursery!

As for when the elf recovers, learns the world’s literature, having gotten a lot from Susan for free, whether she continues to stay or leaves, that’s for later.

Susan was very attentive, serving tea and water, inquiring enthusiastically:

"Since it’s God’s decree, then, should we call it: World Tree Corporation? Can I be the first fringe member of the Elf God? I’m also an animal protection association member, a plant enthusiast."

The Elf Saintess shook her head, "No, directly calling it World Tree Corporation is too presumptuous, the World Tree is the great Divine Tree of the entire world, the mother nurturing elves, reaching directly to the vast Celestial Vault, like a big umbrella protecting life on the ground. Let’s just call it, Umbrella Corporation..."

"God is watching over this world, watching everything from Heaven."

"God will bestow gifts to faithful followers."

Her face was devout, with a holy and pure kind demeanor, making Susan’s heart race.

"Oh oh oh!" Susan brought congee, starting to feed the elf lady lying on the bed: "Let me teach you to read, starting with letters."

...

...

"Alright, let her temporarily help raise the reserve for free, teach literacy."

Li Qing maintained a calm expression.

He didn’t plan to rush anything.

After all, she was quite weak at the moment.

The looks might be intimidating, but whose combat power can she actually frighten??

Let the elf learn while he upgrades, secretly enhancing her body structure, thoroughly boosting her combat power, then let her take action.

"Let Susan take care of her for now, once she learns the language, and my biotechnology advances a few generations, swap out a set of equipment.... first plant this small pawn."

He looked leisurely at the entire elf world.

"Huh, busy nurturing the Elf Saintess for three days, the civilization inside burst forth to this extent?"

...

Elf World.

The entire land was in a state of panic.

Emperor Minis, Humanity Association, Holy Truth Church.

The three major Elf Divine Series were all questioning if the culprit was on the other side, creating a tense atmosphere.

At this time, the leader of the Holy Truth Sect said, "Your Majesty, the Humanity Association is in turmoil, attempting to start a war. I will join you in cleansing them."

Everyone thought it was a tripartite stand-off, but in reality, this sect had long since sided with the emperor.

"If that’s the case, then let’s truly start the war!"

Emperor Minis said, "Suppress the rebellion with force! Let me become the true second-generation ruler, restoring the power of the Atabian era! We cannot have internal strife!"

"Indeed."

The leader of the Holy Truth Sect immediately said, "Your Majesty, I believe you will certainly protect the people of the entire land well!"

His eyes were filled with fierce flames, swearing an oath as a knight:

"I will forever be loyal to Your Majesty! As your sharpest blade, left arm, right arm, the imperial guard general, living and dying with Your Majesty!"

"Good! Good!" Minis immediately said, "Once the war is settled, you will be the Imperial Hero!"

War erupted.

On the World Tree, three branches each bore fruit, nurturing elves.

The war was extremely brutal.

Every leaf on the entire World Tree became a bloody slaughterhouse.

In the chaos of the tripartite war, the leader of the Holy Truth Sect suddenly joined forces with the emperor to fight against the Humanity Association.

The war situation dramatically changed.

"We surrender, we are willing to surrender!" At this time, the leader of the Humanity Association spoke, submitting with all his subordinates.

All the rebels were detained before them, awaiting judgment.

"I sentence you to death!"

Emperor Minis instantly raised his hand, slaying one of the three major leaders who lived closely with him, the Humanity Association leader, without any mercy.

But now.

The leader of the Holy Truth Sect was taken aback, stepping out from the side, frowned and said, "Your Majesty, didn’t you say that after conquering them, you’d imprison them, let them use wisdom to continue benefiting civilization?"

Emperor Minis sneered, "You’re too merciful! We just need to kill all of this faction’s nearly two thousand people! Turning them into Treasure Artifacts provides us with wisdom, and saves effort!"

"No! Their wisdom is indispensable for civilization." The leader of the Holy Truth Sect grew increasingly dissatisfied, saying, "I agreed to quell them because you agreed to spare them. Killing him halted much of the research..."

"I must kill them!"

Minis said angrily, "Progress will just be a bit slower."

The leader of the Holy Truth Sect suddenly laughed, mocking, "And then? Killing the leader is fine, but why also kill the remaining nearly two thousand Gods? Because of fear? They’re too numerous, so you want to kill all the smart people! To fall into the supreme throne ruling the world, hindering each new predecessor’s progress?"

"What did you say??"

Minis grew angry, as his innermost thoughts were spoken.

Indeed, he wanted to kill one-third of the Divine Series, nearly two thousand Gods, using their brains to build a super-large Divine Treasure Artifact, so he would have unprecedented power.

Furthermore, he planned to eventually kill all the gods, leaving only a trusted group to ensure complete control of the entire world, eliminating all dangers.

——Too many Gods.

"Do you know?"

Herodotus, the leader of the Holy Truth Sect, suddenly laughed and said:

"Fear is the emotion furthest from the truth."

"What??" The opponent was stunned.

Herodotus shook his head, "I have no interest in royal power, so-called rulers are just fleeting glances; I wanted to assist you in becoming king and continue as a general, but alas, I made another mistake."

"You’re too blindly arrogant, ultimately inferior to Atabia; following you is absolutely not as pleasant as being with that man."

"Though he is a lunatic, he can rapidly advance civilization because he dares to allow his subordinates’ ambition, has the courage to pursue truth with life!"

Minis fully realized, immediately angry, "You are the rebel leader, infiltrated into our new era... You are the Atabian Empire Hero, Herodotus!"

"Since that’s the case, I cannot assist you in ascending to the throne." Herodotus said no more, taking out his Staff, clapping his hands, "I can’t let you continue killing, so I must temporarily substitute as king myself. In the future, find a new king and assist him to rise."

"Green Sea Tree Prison!"

Bang!

His Staff suddenly sprouted countless trees, vines seemed instantly spawned, wrapping and entwining around everyone.

Everyone was incredulous, as if witnessing a demon.

How terrifying was Herodotus’s power?

How deeply did his sect hide?

This wasn’t primitive cold weapon warfare; it was simply the power of a God!

"Damn it!" Emperor Minis was not easily resolved; he instantly cut the vines, took out a bow and arrow, and shot at Herodotus.

Whizz!

The Poison Arrow shot forth.

He studied poisons, knowing clearly that as long as one arrow hit, it would definitely bring him to the ground.

"Third Layer Divine Sect!"

Herodotus tapped his Staff on the ground.

The ground suddenly grew three gigantic white fingernails, like bone dominoes standing in three layers, blocking the arrows.

"What is this??"

Minis was stunned, a shield growing from the soil?

How did he do it?
