Wasteland Hideout: Upgrading from the Sewers

Chapter 678: A Little Shock for the Orthodox Church Members

  • Next Chapter

"It's Bishop Knight, Bishop Knight has returned."

As Goting led the group outside, they could hear the cheers of the believers.

Soon, they spotted Knight in his black robe looking their way, as well as the young man completely encased in mechanical armor behind him.

"Knight! You're alive."

Someone exclaimed in surprise.

Knight merely nodded, then took a step back and looked toward Yu Yuan behind him.

"This is the Oracle sent by our Lord!"

Sensing the overwhelmingly dense aura of 'Lava' radiating from Yu Yuan, Goting immediately stepped forward.

"We welcome the Oracle. I am Goting, and we will follow all of the Oracle's arrangements."

The few people behind him, who wouldn't dare question anything at this point, immediately followed Goting's lead and pledged their allegiance.

Yu Yuan looked at Goting and those behind him, his voice indifferent as he directly entered the 【Faith Performer】 state, beginning to play the role of a qualified Oracle.

"Everyone, our Lord is deeply disappointed in you. If not for Knight pleading on your behalf, there would have been no reason for you to continue existing."

"Oracle, we understand. Please give us another chance to prove our faith in our Lord."

Goting said immediately.

Yu Yuan nodded slightly.

"Of course, I came here precisely to give you one final chance, but... remember this, this is the last chance, and the only chance you will get."

"The useless and the failed do not deserve to believe in our Lord."

The aura around Yu Yuan grew increasingly deep and oppressive.

Goting's heart pounded violently.

Although the Oracle appeared to be only at Bronze-tier strength, his presence at this moment was remarkably similar to that of the Lord of Molten Flame.

Equally weighty and untouchable.

Goting's recognition of Yu Yuan rose yet again.

There was only one thought in his mind right now.

"I must complete the Oracle's arrangements and prove my worth to our Lord."

Yu Yuan could naturally sense the emotional shifts of the few people present.

He nodded inwardly.

Finally, thinking about the situation of his own civilization, he felt it necessary to set some expectations in advance, so he said:

"Remember, in my command, only the capable shall rise. Anyone who can elevate our Lord's glory will be taken under my wing. So, when you see certain things later, do not be surprised, do not act rashly. Follow orders. Knight will arrange the specific details for you later."

"Goting, I hope you can seize the opportunity Knight fought for you. After all, not everyone gets a second chance."

"Goting understands!"

Goting nodded gratefully toward Knight.

"Are you all ready? My time is very precious."

Yu Yuan's time was indeed precious. He had just received a message from Fang, reporting that Orthodox Church personnel from the Mechanical Scrapyard Planet were approaching.

"Oracle, everything is ready. It's just that there are many personnel and supplies, and I'm not sure about the next step..."

"There's no need to worry about that. Take me there..."

Goting said no more upon hearing this and led Yu Yuan and Knight deeper into the underground church.

This so-called underground church had originally been an underground military base.

It was vast in area, with many military structures, including an underground parking lot, underground warehouses, and more.

Goting quickly took Yu Yuan through all the supplies, vehicles, and personnel of the underground church.

The others also turned their gazes toward Yu Yuan, wanting to see how he would transport all these things away.

Then they witnessed something they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

In the underground parking lot, over a hundred vehicles fully loaded with supplies all vanished.

The previously crowded parking lot instantly became empty.

This miraculous scene immediately filled everyone in the Orthodox Church with immense awe toward Yu Yuan.

In their eyes, this could only be the divine power of the Lord of Molten Flame.

Only divine might could accomplish such an inconceivable feat.

And when the Orthodox Church believers, guided by Knight, walked through the door and entered the motor lodge.

Watching how just beyond a single door lay an entire complete lodge, their reverence for Yu Yuan reached its peak.

Because the Orthodox Church had many supplies and personnel, even with the motor lodge as a transfer vessel, it couldn't all be moved in a single trip.

After the first batch of supplies and personnel reached capacity, Yu Yuan directly teleported to the military camp on the Mechanical Scrapyard Planet.

After unloading the first batch of people and supplies, he teleported back to the underground church, completing the transfer for the time being.

The reason it was only "for the time being" was because the survival supplies stored in the underground warehouse were simply too numerous.

Yu Yuan could only seal that area for now and clean it out separately when he had time later.

This time, only the most important personnel and equipment could be brought over.

"Great Lord of Molten Flame! Is this still our world?"

A priest walked out of the motor lodge, looking at the world with its pleasant temperature and entirely different climate, letting out a heartfelt exclamation.

It wasn't just him. To be precise, everyone was voicing the same sentiment inwardly.

Including Goting.

He looked at the alloy walls of the military camp, as well as the Close-in Weapon Systems, Artillery, laser emitters, and other defensive weapons that were automatically patrolling along the walls.

His eyes nearly popped out of his head.

There were also soldiers constantly appearing around them, clad in mechanical armor that was clearly no ordinary equipment.

"This is the Mechanical Scrapyard Planet, belonging to another world." Knight explained.

Thud, thud, thud—

Just then, the rhythmic sound of heavy footsteps came from afar.

Everyone turned to look at the source of the sound, and they saw a colossal figure constructed entirely of machinery slowly emerging.

A beam of light swept across, and an alloy wall appeared before everyone's eyes.

"By our Lord above, what is this..."

Someone instinctively asked.

"This is an M-series Source Core Mechanical Titan, possessing the ability to create. Everything you see around you right now was created by it."

Knight's voice rang out.

"This... was this also created by our Lord?" Goting murmured to himself.

Yu Yuan turned back to look at everyone.

"As long as it's beneficial to us, we must absorb and fuse everything..."

Goting subconsciously lowered his head.

"By the way, don't call me Oracle here. Call me Leader."

"Yes, Leader."

Goting and the others immediately nodded.

Just then, Goting's gaze shifted toward another direction, and his brow furrowed slightly.

"Oracle—no, Leader, why do I sense our Lord's presence in that direction? Are there other believers of our Lord?"

Yu Yuan said nothing, but Knight had already looked over.

"Leader, they've arrived. They're still three kilometers away from us."

Knight then looked at Goting.

"They are believers of our Lord, though believers of this world. Like us, they have come following our Lord's divine decree to seek the Oracle's guidance."

Yu Yuan glanced at Goting and Knight.

"In that case, let us go together to welcome the return of our Lord's believers!"

Yu Yuan realized that he had become increasingly adept at impersonating the Molten Demon King's Oracle.

If he swapped his mechanical armor for a robe, he would be the real deal through and through...
