Chapter 9 #Please thoroughly investigate Su Che's data#

If she previously believed Su Che was a god only because of her memories of being reborn.

So now, this magnificent temple that rose from nowhere is a slap in the face to the truth!

This is something no human could do!

This is a miracle!

"Lord Su Che! Wait for me!"

Lin Qingge, like a young wife eager to go home, quickly followed after him.

Enter the main hall.

The interior space appears more spacious than the exterior.

The ground is paved with shiny obsidian tiles, each one seemingly imbued with the light of stars. Above, there is a dome tens of meters high, painted with grand murals depicting the world from the beginning of chaos to the end of the universe.

And at the deepest part of the main hall, above the nine steps.

A throne, forged from the bones of an unknown behemoth and black metal, stood silently there.

Behind the throne, a chaotic vortex floated, slowly rotating and radiating a chilling pressure.

Su Che walked up the steps one by one.

With each step he took, his momentum grew stronger.

The lazy air of college students has completely disappeared, replaced by arrogance, indifference, and domineering disdain for the world.

The moment he turned and sat down on the throne that symbolized the authority of the "Fifth Power".

boom!

The lights in the entire hall instantly turned on automatically, and thousands of ever-burning lamps illuminated the hall as if it were daytime.

Su Che rested his cheek on one hand, his long legs casually crossed, and lazily cast his gaze toward Lin Qingge, who was looking up at him from below the steps.

The scene at this moment is as beautiful as a world-famous painting.

The Dark King and His First Follower.

"There are only two rooms here that are habitable."

Su Che's voice echoed in the hall, carrying an innate majesty and a hint of nonchalance.

He raised his finger and pointed to the entrance of the slightly smaller side hall on the left side of the main hall:

"The main hall is mine."

"That side hall is your hideout."

"Go and wash away all that ash. My palace has no place for dirt."

There were no warm greetings, nor any equal discussions.

It was entirely the master's order to the servant.

But when Lin Qingge heard this, she was not angry at all; instead, she became so excited that her pretty face turned red.

"nest?"

What does this mean?

This means that Lin Qingge has officially moved into the abode of the gods!

This means that on this hellish battlefield of national destiny, she has the most indestructible sanctuary!

This also means that Su Che acknowledged her existence and allowed her to stay by his side!

This isn't a side hall; it's practically a ticket to heaven!

"Yes! Thank you for your kindness, Master!"

Lin Qingge knelt on one knee, her voice trembling with excitement, "Qingge will definitely wash herself thoroughly and won't dirty your floor!"

After saying that, she hugged the dagger that now looked incredibly shabby and ran happily toward the side hall. Her light steps showed no trace of the fear she had felt when facing death earlier.

In the live stream, viewers from China watched this scene with extremely mixed feelings.

"Although... why do I get the feeling that Lin Qingge seems to be enjoying it?"

"Nonsense! You'd enjoy it too! It's minus fifty degrees outside with monsters, but inside it's a five-star temple with heating, and you can even cling to God Su's coattails. I'd be willing to be his dog!"

"This isn't about saving the nation's fate; it's clearly Su Che's 'The Overbearing Evil God Falls in Love with Me'!"

"No matter what, it's in the bag! This game is completely won!"

"Tonight, only our Dragon Kingdom's athletes are sleeping in the palace; the sense of security is simply amazing!"

……

As that majestic black-gold temple rose from the wasteland of subspace, the entire internet world of Blue Star experienced an unprecedented "earthquake".

If Lin Qingge's kneeling before only shocked and puzzled people, then Su Che's "cleaning up the temple with his bare hands" operation at this moment directly shattered all of humanity's understanding of the word "superpower".

The live broadcast room for the national event, which had been somewhat quiet due to the encounter between the Japanese player and Nurgle, suddenly saw its popularity skyrocket.

In just ten minutes, the number of viewers worldwide surpassed five billion!

China's livestream viewership numbers have completely surpassed those of the second-place country, making it the undisputed focus of global attention.

However, what followed was not unanimous praise, but an overwhelming wave of questioning and accusations.

On various social media platforms, foreign netizens are completely devastated.

A netizen from the United States commented: "Cheating! This is absolutely cheating! I'm a PhD in architecture, and the complexity of that palace's structure means it would take a month to build even with current 3D printing technology! He just waved his hand and it appeared? This doesn't comply with the law of conservation of energy!"

A netizen from the United States commented: "Protest! Strong protest! This must be because China secretly used some kind of secret weapon! Or hacked into the backend of the national fortune game! We suggest disqualifying China from the competition!"

A French netizen commented: "This is so unfair! Our players are still fighting wolves for a cave, while Chinese players are already living in a palace? How can this game be played? Refund!"

Even some viewers from previously neutral countries couldn't help but flood the live chat with comments like, "Where's the GM? Aren't they going to do anything about this? This is clearly exploiting a bug!"

Even the Chinese audience, after a period of ecstasy, fell into deep self-doubt.

"Brothers, this is awesome, but I'm also a little nervous... Su Shen's move was definitely a bit beyond the norm, wasn't it?"

"Yeah, I've read a lot of supernatural novels, and I understand earth-based supernatural abilities, but this is obsidian and metal! And there are lights inside! And furniture too! Can earth-based supernatural abilities really conjure this up?"

"Could it really be a system bug? What if it gets detected and Su Che's account gets banned?"

Panic began to spread among the Chinese audience.

After all, this concerns the fate of the nation and the life and death of every individual, and there is no room for the slightest mistake.

……

Dragon Kingdom, the highest operational conference room of the Strategic Defense Bureau.

The air was so heavy it seemed like it could drip water.

On the huge main screen, a close-up of Su Che sitting lazily and domineeringly on the skeletal throne was frozen, along with the breathtakingly magnificent interior of the temple in the background.

On both sides of the conference table sat China's top physicists, experts in supernatural abilities, architectural luminaries, and high-ranking military officials.

Every face was filled with shock and bewilderment.

"Snapped!"

An elderly professor with gray hair and thick-rimmed glasses slammed his hand on the table, his excited voice trembling, breaking the deathly silence.

He is Professor Chen, the dean of the Dragon Kingdom Supernatural Abilities Research Institute, and a nationally recognized authority on supernatural abilities.

"Absurd! Utterly absurd!"

Professor Chen pointed at a data analysis on the screen, his face flushed, spittle flying from his mouth: "The Cyberspace Administration of China just forwarded tens of thousands of complaint letters, saying that Su Che has a mutated earth-type ability? Bullshit! This is an insult to science!"

The bureau chief, seated at the head of the table, frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Elder Chen, please calm down. Since it's not an earth-based ability, based on your professional judgment, what exactly is it?"
