1113 Chapter 616: The Tight Net [1/2]

A resting area was behind the church where the believers gathered in the Desert Sect.

Richard sat in a spacious room. He held the Dwarf God statue. He looked at it with a subtle expression.

He was in a daze.

It was a ten-meter-tall statue made of sand.

The statue gave off an extremely holy feeling, although his appearance was blurry. 

This statue used to be Desert God's statue. Of course, it was now his.

The Desert Sect was very interesting. The gods were eager to show their faces to their believers all day long to deepen their impression of the gods, unlike other gods.

In the Desert Sect, the statue was like a desert. It gave people a mysterious sense of respect.

That was why it did not have a face.

Richard controlled the sect. He did not remove the statue.

He had superior thoughts toward the newly obtained Desert Sect.

That was his territory, and his orders were the only rules.

He was the only voice in the entire Desert Sect, although it had only been one or two weeks. That wasn't an exaggeration. 

His control over the Desert Sect was superior to that of Twilight City.

The sect was a special force. The core of everything came from the gods, and Richard was the core.

"Your Excellency Fam, the chaos is spreading. Had the world's laws freed you from its restraints?"

The Dwarf God still wondered why Shar, the Goddess of Darkness, had come. He shook his head subconsciously when he heard this.

"The world laws haven't removed the restraints on my body, although the rules have changed.

"I can't leave the statue yet.

"Only when the New Era arrives and the system refreshes the rules can one remove the previous restrictions."

Richard's gaze was subtle.

"Your Excellency Fam, why were you trapped here?"

The Dwarf God looked puzzled.

"Didn't I tell you before? Before the first battle of the gods, I accidentally entered the river of fate and peeped into the entire plane.

"Fate devoured me, and the world's laws rejected me. It viewed me with hostility by the world's will. I used the materials I obtained from the primal chaos void as the foundation to forge this statue and store it here."

"The malice and restraints of the world's will can only free me when the system changes the rules.

Richard's expression changed after a moment of silence.

"Could you resist the power of the Dark Goddess Shar if you break free?"

One could tell whether the Dwarf God was crazy or not.

"Of all the people you can compete with, you want me to compete with Shar?"

Richard understood what was happening. He was about to comfort Fam when he said something that made him freeze.

"I can barely do it if I would just block Her Excellency Shar. But winning is just a dream.

The Dwarf God rubbed his nose and sighed.

"Only Asmodeus controls the Nith Hell in the entire multiverse. He is the ancient demon. He wouldn't dare to say he can defeat Her Excellency Shar. Asmodeus couldn't slay for him to kill Her Excellency Shar."

The short god wore a cloak of gorgeous bird wings and a gemstone-filled ring. Richard focused on him. His expression became quite interesting.

"Good Lord, when I mentioned Shar just now, you appeared like you could die. But now you're telling me that you can stop a goddess who has existed since the beginning of the world?

"F*ck… So you're the ultimate big boss, right?

"The big shot is actually by my side?

As expected, common sense couldn't judge who could spy on the river of fate and not die.

The Dwarf God sensed Richard's mood. He was sparingly wary.

"Let me tell you, don't offend Her Excellency Shar because of this. I won't make an enemy out of her.

"And that was before the laws bound me. Shar could crush me with a single finger."

Richard shrugged and said nothing.

He wouldn't find trouble with a big shot like Shar for no reason.

Then he wouldn't be a lamb one would slaughter. 

Anyone who wanted to spy on Twilight City must prepare to lose a tooth.

Richard calmed down. His eyes were thoughtful as he spoke. 

"Your Excellency Fam, authority is now available for anyone to fight over. Do you need the power to protect yourself?

"I can arrange for someone to help you find the authority you want if you need it."

Richard controlled the Ell Players Association and the Ell Alliance.

In addition, millions of players in Ell had directly joined him.

It wasn't arduous to find the authority one had already publicized.

The Dwarf God spoke with a complicated tone.

"I didn't expect you to grow to such heights in less than two years, although I thought highly of you."

"Authority? That is the power of rules. Why do you say it's like pebbles on the ground?"

Richard smiled.

"Doesn't this mean that Shar's investment wasn't wrong?"

She did not expect to control such exaggerated power in such a short time.

The subtlety of snowballing was that after the snowball rolled to a certain extent, each step forward might be more than the sum of a hundred or a thousand in the early stages.

He gained the upper hand. And he did not miss a single opportunity. Richard had then established Twilight City.
