Start with Island Lord

‘Buzz~~~’

In the underground secret room of the Swan Castle, the air twisted in a spiral, and a figure gradually emerged.

It was Rosen who returned from the Nahuatl plane.

During this teleportation, Rosen brought almost nothing except clothes, so he only had about 30% of the mana left in his body.

After the transmission was completed, he immediately set up the secret room, temporarily unlocked the phase transmission lock in the secret room, and set up a phase transmission beacon.

After waiting for a few minutes, the road sign lit up slightly, and the spiral distortion in the air appeared again.

Another figure emerged.

A few seconds later, the figure turned from virtual to real, and it was none other than the mother of nature, Zigrillana.

Rosen could feel that the mana in the opponent's body was almost completely exhausted, less than half percent at most.

Judging from the absolute total amount of mana consumed, the opponent is much smaller than himself.

The reason is also very simple, because the phase shift of matter, soul, and even mana itself will consume mana.

Rosen is a legendary soul, so the cost of phase transfer is naturally much greater.

When he entered Nahuatl with the Crystal Torrent Staff, he did not charge the staff in advance.

Because if it is full of power, the transfer will consume a huge amount of extra mana, and the transfer process will cause huge shocks to the soul.

After finally reaching the target location, not only will the stored mana be depleted, but the damage to the soul will also be greatly increased.

Back to topic.

After Zigrillana appeared, the side effect of excessive consumption of mana appeared.

She was dizzy, unbalanced, and almost falling.

Of course, Rosen would not just sit idly by and took a few steps over, holding Chigurilana in his arms.

Chigurilana's body shook slightly, but she didn't break free.

So, the two of them stood motionless in the middle of the secret room.

Of course, Rosen was not idle either.

He invoked the power of faith and slowly poured power into Zigrillana's soul to restore her lost power.

Zigrillana subconsciously wanted to refuse, but soon she felt that the power was pure and gentle, and there was a vague and very familiar feeling, so she allowed the power to flow into her body.

Soon she became strange.

Due to her eight-ring power sensitivity, she was unable to distinguish the subtle differences between the power of faith, the power of the soul, and the power of the magic ring, so she was unable to understand Rosen's methods.

She couldn't help but ask: "Duke, what kind of power is this?"

Rosen didn't hide it either, because this matter couldn't be hidden, and the other party would soon discover the anomaly of the Church of Nature.

"The power of faith."

Chigurilana is a very smart person with extraordinary knowledge. She can guess it with just a little thought.

She looked down at the real name ring on Rosen's hand.

"Is it the power of faith provided by the natural church?"

"That's right."

She was even more surprised: "Are there so many?"

She had also been vaguely aware of the role of the power of faith in the past, but it was so pitiful and dispensable, and it became less and less year after year that it was almost negligible.

Rosen smiled slightly: "Lana, I will explain it to you in detail later, but now, we have to discuss the future fate of the Natural Alliance."

This is a big deal. Chigrillana nodded: "You tell me."

Rosen said solemnly: "We have gained a lot from this trip to Nahuatl, but the price is not small."

"There will definitely be someone in the Republic of Nahuatl who will prevent me from gaining a higher status in the continent of Wit."

Chigurilana didn't understand.

"Why? What does the matter in our plane have to do with Nahuat?"

"Could it be that Nahuat plans to take you back by force?"

If that were the case, it would be a complete rift.

And it’s also very difficult to do.

After all, Rosen is a duke lord, and it is impossible for the other party to have too many people coming, let alone carry a powerful magic weapon.

As long as a confinement array is set up to prevent sneak attacks, and a phase transfer detection device is built, as soon as someone is detected entering the plane, an army will be sent to encircle and suppress them, and the opponent's entire army can be easily annihilated.

Rosen gently leaned close to the delicate ear of the other party and whispered: "Because the Radiant Empire and Nahuat have always maintained close cooperation, its help to Nahuat is much greater than that of us."

"In this case, if the Radiant Empire feels threatened by us and asks Nahuat for help, do you think Nahuat will sit back and watch?"

Chigurilana was shocked because she knew Rosen was right.

Her only doubt was how Rosen knew this.

Rosen sensed her doubts and took the initiative to explain.

"I saw a lot of knowledge from the Glorious Empire in the Temple of Wisdom, and it was all very precious knowledge."

"This is enough to show that the two parties have deep cooperation."

Chigurilana immediately understood and asked: "What should we do now?"

"I have left a hidden hand in Nahuatl, but this is not enough. We must also speed up the process of unifying the natural alliance."

As he spoke, Rosen used his arms slightly to hold the soft and shy Mother Nature tightly in his arms.

"I can't do this alone, I need your help."

Zigrillana's cheeks were already as red as fire, and she twisted her body uneasily: "Of course I will try my best to help you, but I am only an eighth-ring mage, how can I help?"

Rosen had already thought about it. He leaned into Mother Nature's ear and whispered his plan.

The latter became more and more surprised as he listened, and by the end, his face was full of disbelief.

"I can't believe that there is such a thing in the world. Is it really possible to respond to so many believers one by one?"

Rosen smiled slightly and said half-truthfully: "Mortals can't do it, and legendary wizards can't do it, but it is possible to do it by combining legendary mana crystals and puppets!"

"You know, our Iron Clan is best at making puppets, and I have developed puppetry to an extreme."

"In order to develop the natural religion, I created a kind of faith management puppet, which is specially used to respond to the prayers of believers, and will grant some small spiritual spells to some devout church backbones through the faith channel."

"The effect is also very good, which greatly enhances the influence of the natural religion among the people and greatly increases the power of faith obtained."

Of course, he would not reveal the existence of Lai Fu, but Lai Fu's ability can be partially reproduced with the current knowledge of magic.

And with the resources he has at his disposal, he is fully capable of doing these things.

Therefore, Zigrelana believed 90% of it, and at the same time felt that Rosen's imagination was incredibly rich. He could come up with such an incredible idea. He was simply... simply not like a mortal.

She was also very shy, because in Rosen's plan, Rosen would become the emperor of the Natural Empire, and she would become the queen of the Natural Empire.

Although she did not reject Rosen, and she admired the talent of this young wizard very much, and she might like him a little, she always felt flustered in her heart, filled with an indescribable sense of uneasiness.

What kind of person is Rosen? As soon as she saw Zigrelana's performance, she knew that she had completely agreed in her heart. The reason why she showed a hesitant expression was mostly because of the reservedness of an unmarried girl.

Even if she had seen it countless times, she had never experienced it personally, so she would feel uneasy.

This is human nature.

Facing this situation, he has two strategies.

One is to take the other party directly into the wild world of adults like a roller coaster.

The other is to proceed step by step and let it come naturally.

The former progresses rapidly but is prone to failure, and is suitable for those passionate and bold girls, such as Alice.

The latter is slow, but safe and comfortable, and is suitable for reserved and shy girls, such as the Mother of Nature in front of him.

Zigrelana is an extremely important existence, which is directly related to whether Rosen can successfully unify the Natural Alliance, so he plans to spend some effort and simmer it slowly.

So, he lowered his head and kissed Zigrelana's cheek.

Zigrelana was slightly surprised, her eyes widened, and she subconsciously raised her hand to reject, but not very hard.

After pushing a few times without being pushed away, she let Rosen flirt with her, thinking to herself: 'Just treat this as intimacy between good friends. '

Rosen kissed and kissed, and then kissed on the lips.

Zigrelana was shocked all over, and raised her hand to reject again.

As she pushed, she whispered in her mind: "Duke, let me go, I... I'm not ready yet."

The cheeks can be considered intimate between friends, but lips are only for lovers. She couldn't find an excuse to convince herself no matter what.

Although she felt that the numbness of her lips was wonderful, this feeling was also very strange and she was not used to it.

Rosen felt that it was almost done. If he went forward, the other party might run away like a frightened cat and would not be seen for a long time.

So he paused the offensive, but did not loosen his arms as the other party wished, and replied in a mental whisper: "Sorry, Miss, I couldn't help it."

Seeing that Rosen stopped, Zigrelana's nervousness eased a lot, so she didn't continue to resist, and shrank in Rosen's arms like a cat without moving.

The feeling of a simple hug was still very good, giving her a sense of security under protection.

After a moment of silence, she completely relaxed and said softly, "I personally agree to be the queen of the Natural Empire, but this is a big deal, and I alone have no say."

"I must also meet my parents and grandfather. Especially my grandfather, only when my grandfather nods can this really be accomplished."

Rosen raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is the Godly Father still alive?"

The Godly Father is the founder of the Natural God Religion.

Although he only has the power of nine rings, he is an extremely extraordinary figure, and even to the Lord of Glory, he has a huge deterrent power.

In mythological novels, the Godly Father and the Lord of Glory have had many head-on confrontations. Generally speaking, the Godly Father is at a disadvantage, but the Lord of Glory can't do whatever he wants.

This can be clearly reflected in the geopolitical pattern of the contemporary Natural Alliance and the Glory Countries.

Although Rosen doesn't know why the Godly Father, a nine-ring wizard, can be so powerful, but strong is strong, and respecting facts can make better progress.

For safety reasons, he naturally maintains a respectful attitude towards the Godly Father.

Since he is still alive, he can't ignore it.

Zigrelana also gave a clear answer: "He is currently sleeping, but he can sleep for at most 20 years. If he wakes up, he will only have half a year."

As expected, time is running out, and the hero is getting old.

In contrast, the Lord of Glory, a ten-ring mage, still has a lot of time left to wake up.

In a sense, the Lord of Glory did not really defeat the Godly Father, but outlasted the old hero.

After careful consideration, Rosen had a plan in mind.

"If I can be promoted to the tenth ring, I estimate that I can stay awake for at least 30 more years."

In his opinion, it is better for the Godly Father to be alive than dead. Being alive can attract firepower for him, but if he dies, he will have to face the Glorious Empire alone.

"Can it?" Zigrellana was pleasantly surprised.

Grandfather was extremely powerful with 9 rings of mana. If he was promoted to 10th ring, the situation of the natural gods would be much better than it is now.

Rosen was not sure.

If the efficiency of Godly Father's cultivation was only a little short of the 10th ring, then he could succeed with a little help. If it was much short, then he had no way now.

But this was temporary.

This time he had obtained so much precious knowledge. After studying it thoroughly, he should be able to find a new way to break the wall.

Finally, he had another secret consideration.

If Godly Father could be promoted to 10th ring, Rosen could even use the legendary mana crystal to assist him in his promotion to legend, so that he could deal with the Lord of Glory, an old rival who had been entangled with him for countless years.

But this would cause a problem.

Heroes like Godly Father would not be controlled by others.

After he obtained the legendary power, he might deal with the Lord of Glory, but he might also turn around and suppress himself, the 'usurper'.

Therefore, unless he has mastered the power to suppress ordinary legends, it would be troublesome for him to rashly upgrade the Godly Father.

So, facing Zigrellana's full expectations, he said:

"I dare not make a complete guarantee. After all, my grandfather is old and I am afraid he can't stand the tossing."

"My idea is that after I have completely absorbed the knowledge I have gained this time and found a safe and reliable way, we will go to see my grandfather again, so as not to be happy in vain."

This statement is rigorous and reliable, impeccable.

Zigrellana nodded repeatedly: "Okay, let's do it."

Seeing her happy, Rosen took a step forward: "This job is not easy to do. Miss, should you give me a small reward?"

"What reward do you want?"

Rosen stared at her beautiful red lips.

Zigrellana pursed her lips, raised her head slightly, and closed her eyes.

She acquiesced.

After a conversation, Zigrellana almost softened in Rosen's arms.

Rosen talked about the second thing seriously: "Dear, the fewer people know about the faith management puppet, the better."

"Before things mature, it's best for only the two of us to know, so as not to cause an impact on the church."

Zigerella nodded in agreement: "You are right."

Rosen continued: "In addition, the current faith puppet's ability is far from enough. After I digest this knowledge, I will design a brand new faith puppet."

"Regarding the doctrine of the natural church, we must make adjustments."

"We must obtain as much faith power as possible, and we must meet the needs of the new era."

"Finally, if you are willing, you will be responsible for the maintenance of the faith puppet. If you find it troublesome, leave it to me."

This faith puppet can be regarded as the prototype of an artificial god.

At the beginning, the function must be very simple and the reaction must be very rigid.

But it doesn't matter. At the beginning, only simple work is done to conceal the existence of Lai Fu.

The real work mainly depends on Lai Fu.

Zigrelana was very curious about the Faith Puppet: "Let me try it first."

Rosen laughed in his heart: 'This job is very tedious, I want to see how long you can hold on.'
