The Ordinary Me is Worshipped as a Deity by the Extraordinary Them - Chapter 155

Rota County had been shrouded in fog for the past two days. Except for noon, visibility had drastically decreased at all other times, with mist running rampant and houses appearing and disappearing intermittently.

High above in the sky, a dark red giant dragon led the flight, followed by a gray crane whose build was no weaker than the giant dragon’s. Beside the gray crane was a black dragon that was somewhat smaller in stature compared to the leading giant dragon.

After Elvi used wind elements to disperse the fog ahead, he gazed down at Rota County shrouded in thick mist below, her eyes deep as she said, “I hadn’t expected that in just a few days, my ‘temporarily lost treasure’ could cause me such a big incident.”

The gray crane’s figure remained motionless in the air as if frozen, and the male voice emanating from its throat was somewhat low. “Compared to the teleportation platform in Rota County being destroyed by your ‘treasure,’ I actually think it’s more likely that Leia sent people to do this.”

The black dragon snorted, its voice as lively as a young girl’s. “Even if that merman wanted to cause trouble for the Winged Tribe and Beast Tribe to relieve his recent pressure, he couldn’t possibly target Rota County’s teleportation platform.”

“This wasn’t a victory where you harm the enemy a thousand while losing eight hundred yourself, but rather a foolish act that would inevitably anger the other two clans.”

“Anyone would know he couldn’t possibly do such a thing…” the black dragon said sarcastically, “Or perhaps His Excellency Adonis, as an advisor beside the Queen, can’t even see through such matters?”

Despite the obvious mockery in the words spoken by the black dragon’s girlish voice, the tone was somewhat softened because of the voice itself. It even made one feel that getting angry over her words would be petty-minded and lacking in magnanimity.

The gray crane, namely Adonis, showed no emotional response to these obviously targeted remarks. He merely maintained his low voice and said in an even tone, “Victoria, I’m simply stating that I don’t believe an awakener who has only awakened dragon clan bloodline could destroy a teleportation platform that has existed for hundreds of years.”

“If you insist on thinking that my words are simply questioning Her Excellency Elvi’s judgment, then please don’t drag the Queen into such questioning as well. Otherwise, I will regard your actions as disrespect toward the Queen.”

“Tch.” Victoria said without concealment, “Truly worthy of being a common gray crane.”

Gray cranes were among the most numerous species in the Winged Tribe. Although this species couldn’t compare to the nobility and power of giant dragons, they excelled in sufficient numbers.

Under such a massive population base, the gray crane clan had still managed to produce an Adonis through sheer numbers—this lackey who had been constantly accompanying the Winged Tribe Queen.

What disgusted Victoria was that Adonis’s first external assignment in recent decades was indirectly expressing doubt about the Dragon Clan’s loyalty.

The matter of Elvi exchanging resources with the Water Tribe through Leia had still been exposed.

The Winged Tribe wasn’t entirely a one-man show controlled by the Queen.

Even though Elvi had handed over more than sixty percent of the resources to the Queen after the transaction ended, this matter had still been leaked to the political opposition within the Winged Tribe that stood against Elvi.

If it were someone else, they might consider Elvi’s political opponents as enemies, but Victoria wouldn’t think that way.

Her first thought was that the Queen felt sixty percent of the resources was too little.

By deliberately framing Elvi’s private exchange of resources with the Water Tribe through the mermaid ruler as Elvi secretly releasing a merman who had come to investigate Winged Tribe secrets, this would create a situation where Elvi had to prove her innocence.

The benefits already obtained would become evidence of the merman ruler bribing Elvi.

In a situation where Elvi couldn’t possibly hand over the remaining forty percent of resources and didn’t want to be framed by a third party, she could only ultimately accept the subtle current situation of “the Queen sending her lackey to investigate the Dragon Clan’s safety.”

Victoria would have even preferred if Elvi hadn’t handed over those sixty percent of resources at the time.

That way, even if she were framed, the tangible benefits would have been in hand, rather than the current situation where she had lost some benefits while also welcoming the disgusting Adonis.

Victoria sneered and said, “You’d better not let me find any dirt on you.”

Before Adonis could respond, Elvi proactively interrupted Victoria, who was no match for Adonis in verbal sparring.

“Enough, don’t let your thoughts wander.” After Elvi coldly glanced at Adonis, she continued, “Our primary objective now is to bring back Su Li.”

Elvi hadn’t exposed Su Li’s situation. On the contrary, after the Queen had produced a disciplinary inspector like Adonis, all the intelligence related to Su Li that Elvi had leaked had been completely replaced with Cyril’s information.

Simply put, in Adonis’s eyes, Su Li was currently a human who had awakened dragon bloodline within Elvi’s bloodline inheritance.

Moreover, for Elvi, this explanation method was also the best.

Before understanding whether the Queen truly wanted to obtain greater benefits or “simply” wanted to severely suppress the Dragon Clan, Elvi obviously couldn’t expose Su Li’s strategic significance.

At this time, giving him the label of his own offspring meant Adonis wouldn’t be overly suspicious.

But the trouble was that Elvi had to find Su Li first and use wind elements to provide comprehensive coverage on him to ensure he could deceive Adonis.

Elvi’s eyes flashed, and to dismiss the “common” Adonis that Victoria had mentioned, she simply said, “The situation inside Rota County is currently unclear, and there’s mist covering it. Rather than you two going in with me, it’s better if I go alone for a quick round trip.”

Upon hearing this, Victoria glared fiercely at Adonis again before responding, “I understand, Your Excellency. Go early and return early. I’ll keep a good watch on this gray crane.”

Adonis merely nodded and smiled slightly at this, remaining unmoved.

Elvi knew this represented his agreement not to enter Rota County together, so she flapped his wings and dove down from high altitude into Rota County.

Thanks to the attraction of the [Final Creation], Elvi didn’t take long to find Su Li, who was in the inn.

Before Su Li could be surprised by the giant dragon’s second visit, Elvi bombarded him with a series of information.

“The Winged Tribe Queen may suspect the Dragon Clan’s disloyalty. After I handed over sixty percent of the resources obtained from Leia, she still sent a lackey to my side for surveillance. That person is currently outside Rota County.”

Elvi didn’t give Su Li a chance to react and explained her actions.

“Next, you need to properly play the role of a dragon bloodline awakener. Don’t expose your pure human identity. You should understand that compared to my willingness to spend time waiting for you to grow to adulthood before using you, the Winged Tribe King would prefer to directly tie you to a research table, making you never see daylight again.”

“Afterward, I’ll use sufficiently dense wind elements to envelop you, disguising you as having ninth-level monster beast strength. If you don’t want to die, cooperate well with me. Let me first figure out what exactly the Queen wants to do to the Dragon Clan. Otherwise, even if you’re invaluable, when no one in the world knows about it, even if I lost you, at least on the surface I wouldn’t show any heartache.”

Su Li went from “?” to “.” and then to “……”

He was rendered speechless.

He now had only one question.

“So why did you hand over sixty percent of the resources you exchanged from the Water Tribe?”

The same question—Victoria had regarded it as Elvi having deeper meaning. Su Li, however, felt that perhaps from staying with Leia too long, Elvi’s brain had been filled with seawater…?

The giant dragon provided an explanation. “In a situation where the Dragon Clan hasn’t completely separated from the Winged Tribe, offending targets that also belong to the ‘Wing’ faction is obviously not a wise choice.”

“But since you’re planning to become independent, why do you still care about others’ opinions?” Su Li saw through Elvi’s pale and powerless reasoning at a glance.

However, the giant dragon didn’t intend to continue explaining to Su Li, only saying, “Enough, I don’t want to continue this topic. You now only need to cooperate with me to complete the concealment of your true identity.”

“Dragon affairs—what do they have to do with you, a human?” Elvi looked at Su Li with sharp eyes.

Su Li stopped talking.

He felt Elvi was right.

Humans and dragons—regardless of whether dragons transformed from humans, after humans became dragons, humans and dragons were no longer the same race.

Rather than focusing on everything related to Elvi, it was better to think about…

“Can I use the elemental power you inject around me?” Su Li suddenly had the idea of perfecting his “dragon bloodline” setting. “You can’t just have an empty shell that would scatter with a touch.”

Nothing was more suitable for entering the inner layers of monster beast society than the identity of the next generation of the rare Dragon Clan—a dragon bloodline awakener.

Su Li thought.

“You can use it three times.” Elvi had to prepare for the possibility of Adonis testing him.

“But only three times.” Elvi moved her fingers, and massive wind elements instantly enveloped Su Li’s entire body. “Both attack and defense power are equivalent to a ninth-level monster beast.”

“So I have three ‘top-tier strength experience cards’ from human society?” Su Li asked back.

“Correct.”

The young man who received the answer curved his lips in a meaningless smile and said seriously, “I understand. I’ll cooperate well with you from now on.”

For the sake of the experience cards.

“Then we should leave.” After confirming Su Li understood the situation, Elvi immediately planned to take him away.

“I don’t know how urgent you are, but at least give me a chance to say goodbye to the people around me.” Su Li attempted to stop him.

However, during his speech, he inadvertently used one of the experience card opportunities…

In an instant, wind elements materialized Su Li’s concept of “stopping” in his mind.

For Su Li, the most convenient way to express unacceptable stopping behavior was to raise a weapon and demonstrate strength.

Although for someone without power, stopping could mostly only be expressed through words rather than genuine physical refusal.

——After all, even if expressed, others could treat it as non-existent.

But when power existed, Su Li’s concept of “stopping” directly forged an MK14 in mid-air.

Su Li inexplicably felt his hand grow heavy, and looking down, he discovered an additional green sniper rifle in his hand.

Secretly putting on his monocle, Su Li raised his head and looked at the giant dragon with extremely sharp vision with innocent eyes, saying seriously, “If I said I know nothing about this, would you believe me?”
