Qin Ze was the only one left in the vast underground space.
The leader excitedly went to summon the members of the Golden Family.
Once this elite force is added to the coalition, the coalition's overall strength will experience a qualitative leap.
Qin Ze looked at the Golden God and said, "I'm taking these people with me. Anyway, the Power of Faith they provide now is just a drop in the bucket for you."
"I'll replenish your Source of Life later; try to hold on as long as possible."
Qin Ze took out the Red Shell and visualized the Forest Clan's Outpost City in his mind. Waves of blood-red ripples quickly engulfed it.
"I'm back, my loyal Forest Clan!"
When Qin Ze opened his eyes, he was already in his presidential palace.
His Second Sister, who had just finished showering, came out of the bathroom right in front of him; her curvaceous body was wrapped only in a thin bath towel.
The blonde woman was taken aback by Qin Ze's sudden appearance out of nowhere.
For a moment, the two stared at each other wide-eyed.
Qin Ze took a step back and greeted him, "Good evening."
The blonde, mature woman gritted her teeth. "Fine, I'll call you hello!"
She instinctively prepared for Supernova Explosion.
Qin Ze quickly stopped him. "Bean sack!"
"It's not easy for civil engineers to build a house; let's be understanding of them."
The Second Sister took a deep breath. "Get out, I need to change my clothes."
"Okay!"
Only after Qin Ze left the room did he belatedly realize, "Wait a minute, this is my house."
Ten minutes later, Qin Ze and his Second Sister sat facing each other.
The Second Sister's expression wasn't as cold anymore; after all, this wasn't the first time something like this had happened.
Qin Ze asked, "What are you doing here?"
His Second Sister rolled her eyes at him. "Didn't you ask me to help you handle the affairs of the Outpost City?"
" General Huan sends all sorts of documents here, so I've been staying here for the past few days for convenience."
Qin Ze nodded. "You can stay here from now on, my bed is quite big."
Second Sister: →_→
Qin Ze quickly waved his hand. "I meant I'll have the civil engineering guy build another room."
"Anyway, I won't be coming back much, so I'll leave this place to you from now on."
Qin Ze had great trust in his Second Sister's management skills.
The Second Sister gave a light snort and asked, "Have you finished dealing with everything on your end?"
Qin Ze shook his head. "There was a slight mishap, but everything is still under control. We just came back to get some tree fruit."
"How have things been? Have I had a peaceful few days?"
The Second Sister replied, "Senior Star Eyes is still searching for that Strange God, but there are still no clues."
"The beasts did launch two large-scale, organized attacks, but both were repelled."
Qin Ze nodded. "That's good."
"It's getting late, you should rest first. I'm going to see Old Xing; I have something to ask him."
After Qin Ze left, a barely perceptible smile appeared on the Second Sister's lips.
Immediately afterwards, she picked up the official documents she hadn't finished processing during the day.
As Qin Ze walked down Central Street, he noticed that the Outpost City had been completely transformed in the past few days; the civil engineering guys were really awesome.
"Your Majesty."
Just then, General Huan walked towards them, not expecting Qin Ze to suddenly return.
Qin Ze asked, "How many tree fruits are available right now?"
General Huan replied, "Around thirty thousand."
Qin Ze said, "Pack everything up, I'll come pick it up later."
General Huan replied, "Yes."
He did not ask why.
Since it's the leader's order, he just needs to carry it out.
Not long after, Qin Ze found Star Eyes in the sky.
Star Eyes, she asked, "You're back so soon? Did you gather all the materials?"
Qin Ze shook his head. "We'll have to wait a while, then come back and get some tree fruit."
Star Eyes eyes swept Qin Ze up and down, and seeing that he was not injured, she wondered what he wanted the tree fruit for.
Qin Ze asked, " Old Xing, do you know the Goddess of the Earth?"
Star Eyes replied, "Of course I know, that's a Sequence Upper God, the strongest Upper God under the Pillar God."
"It is said that the true power of the Goddess of the Earth is not much different from that of the Pillar God."
Qin Ze asked, "Then why isn't the Goddess of the Earth Pillar God?"
Star Eyes thought for a moment, "Maybe she doesn't want to."
" The Pillar God is the chosen one of the Land of the Gods the Goddess of Life, acting as the representative for all affairs of the Land of the Gods. The Goddess of the Earth probably doesn't like these things."
"Oh, I see." Qin Ze looked into the distance and asked casually, "What about the Desolate God? What Sequence is he?"
Star Eyes moment of contemplation, Xingmou said, " The Desolate God... is actually not Sequence God."
Qin Ze's heart was in turmoil.
Master Desolate with thick eyebrows and big eyes isn't Sequence God, then how did he manage to put his arm around the God of War?
Moreover, it is not difficult to see from the Chronicle of Time that Master Desolate was very powerful, and he could even beat up the God of Machinery.
Star Eyes glanced at Qin Ze, then continued, " The Desolate God is a very strange fellow, like... a bug among the gods."
"Despite having no authority whatsoever, and being a newly ascended god who has only recently crossed the Star Gate, he is able to go toe-to-toe with the God of War."
"I've heard some rumors that the Desolate God is the Goddess of Life... cough cough cough, those who know, know."
Qin Ze was speechless. "What do I know?"
Seeing Qin Ze's reaction, Star Eyes smiled knowingly.
Then, he said seriously, "While you were gone, I have been searching for Meng Die's whereabouts."
"She's still nearby, but she's been avoiding me. I have a feeling she's plotting something."
Qin Ze said, "It would be abnormal if they weren't plotting something."
Be careful, don't let something unexpected happen.
Star Eyes nodded. "I'll be careful."
Qin Ze chatted with Old Xing for a while longer, and after estimating that General Huan's preparations were almost complete, he said goodbye to Old Xing.
"Thirty thousand trees' worth of fruit are all inside."
The next batch of fruit will be ripe soon.
General Huan handed Qin Ze a storage bag filled with tree fruits.
Qin Ze took it and said, "I need to leave for a while longer."
General Huan said solemnly, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will safeguard everything."
Qin Ze slipped away and used the Red Shell to teleport back to the Golden God.
He couldn't help but marvel at how convenient the Red Shell was; it was practically a Abyss weapon for running trade routes and being a middleman in the abyss.
"Have these to start with."
Qin Ze poured out all the tree fruits.
The abundant Source of Life transformed into a stream, which was completely absorbed by the Golden God.
If the progress bar of the Golden God's Source of Life is 100%, then these 30,000 tree fruits only replenished about 0.1% of the progress bar.
The voice of the Golden God rang in Qin Ze's ears. "Thank you, you've saved me from my immediate predicament."
"The power of the Echo is indeed very useful, but it's an extremely treacherous and cunning creature; one must be extremely cautious when dealing with it."
Qin Ze smiled. It was just a matter of being open and honest; it wasn't a big deal.
A drop of golden liquid condensed in the void and slowly fell in front of Qin Ze.
Qin Ze opened his palm, and the droplet fell onto it and merged with it.
As the dark golden light around him flashed and disappeared, Qin Ze thus gained control of a portion of the Goddess of the Earth's authority.
The goddess said in a deep voice, "Let's keep moving forward..."
