Chapter 587 - 585: Everyone Cheers

After a few minutes.

"ROAA!!"

With an unwilling wail, the huge body of the Tailed Rat fell heavily into the sea and died at Fenric’s hands.

"Ding! You have killed a kaiju. Current mission progress: 3/1!"

Fenric remained expressionless when he heard the system prompt.

His gaze fell on the two rings on his left hand.

They were the Ring of the Thunder God and the Ring of the Sea God.

Just like in the previous multiplayer dungeon, due to the restriction forbidding special items, even though the two rings were still worn on his fingers, they could not be used.

Fenric had just tested it.

He had attempted to use the Sea God’s Ring to control the seawater, but it failed.

Now the two rings were no different from ordinary rings.

They could only serve as decorations.

However.

For Fenric at his current level, losing the abilities of these two rings did not make much difference.

With Fenric’s present strength, even the strongest Category Five kaiju would still be nothing more than a little brother in front of him.

After the Tailed Rat was dealt with, the temporary hunting operation came to an end.

Fenric turned around and flew toward the direction of the human military base.

He deliberately flew very slowly.

This was to give the high-ranking human officials enough time to react.

When Fenric flew above the city, he immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

"He destroyed the kaiju! He is our hero!"

No one knew who shouted it first, but soon cheers erupted from the crowd.

Countless people rushed toward Fenric, raising their hands high in the air as if welcoming a returning hero.

Titles such as "great hero" and "savior" were shouted continuously in Fenric’s direction.

For a moment.

Many streets became completely blocked.

Most of these people were civilians who had just fled for their lives while kaijus ravaged the city.

Even though they had been saved, their hearts were still filled with fear and insecurity.

What they desperately needed now was a strong spiritual pillar.

Fenric’s appearance perfectly filled that role.

He had just demonstrated overwhelming power by destroying the kaijus and saving the city.

Therefore, countless people who had been on the verge of despair placed their hopes on him.

Many people even knelt directly on the ground, bowing repeatedly toward Fenric.

It seemed that Fenric had truly been regarded as a savior.

At that moment, Fenric hovered high in the sky, overlooking the world like a god descended upon Earth.

If not for the dock worker’s clothing he was still wearing, which slightly reduced the sense of grandeur, no one would have doubted if someone claimed he was a god.

Looking at the fanatical crowd below, Fenric smiled at the appropriate moment, revealing a kind and gentle expression.

Being worshiped as a savior by countless people was not a bad thing for Fenric.

Afterward, Fenric took the initiative to descend to the ground.

With a warm smile, he began interacting kindly with the surrounding humans.

He personally helped several overly enthusiastic worshippers to their feet and spoke a few encouraging words, behaving much like a seasoned politician during a public appearance.

The only difference was that his current presence far surpassed that of any politician.

Fenric was doing this deliberately.

He appeared approachable and friendly while displaying enough goodwill toward humanity.

He believed that many powerful organizations were secretly observing him at this very moment.

Fenric’s actions quickly won the favor of countless people.

More and more people gathered around him, shouting various praises.

Their eyes burned with admiration as if they were looking at a spiritual leader.

At this moment, if even a small disturbance occurred, a massive stampede could easily break out.

"Mr. Savior, thank you for saving us!"

"Hero, we need you!"

"Please kill all those damned kaijus! They destroyed our homes!"

Faced with these repetitive pleas, Fenric merely smiled without answering.

He allowed the crowd to surround him.

At that moment.

A small white girl with delicate features, about eight or nine years old, squeezed out from the crowd and walked up to Fenric.

"Are you a god from the sky? Did God send you to save us?"

After asking this question, the little girl looked at Fenric with hopeful eyes.

When the others heard her question, they also looked at Fenric expectantly, waiting for his answer.

In the eyes of the entire crowd—

Fenric finally spoke.

"I’m sorry. I don’t know God."

Fenric gently patted the little girl’s head and continued smiling as he looked at the surrounding people.

"But if you truly want to think of me as a god..."

"You can consider me a god from the Jadeveil Nation."

When everyone heard this, many suddenly realized what he meant.

Those Westerners who believed strongly in God looked somewhat uneasy.

Meanwhile, Asians with black hair and dark eyes immediately became excited, as if they had been injected with energy.

"Did you hear that? He admitted it himself—he’s a god!"

"And he’s a god from the East!"

"God? No, not God—it’s the Jade Emperor! Thank you, Old Heaven, for sending down a true deity!"

There were even many Westerners who began questioning their own beliefs on the spot and asked the black haired man beside them.

"Hey, buddy, does your Jade Emperor religion accept new followers?"

"Sorry. I’m not from the East. I’m born and raised in the West."

"What? Then why are you f@cking excited? Damn bastard!"

Ignoring the chaotic discussions around him—

Fenric continued walking forward with a calm smile.

As he approached, the surrounding crowd automatically parted to form a path for him.
