Quick Travel: After retirement, I was forced to return to the throne of God

"He's here already? So soon?"

"Yes, he has already entered the country. He rushed here with all his might. I guess a soldier will come to report soon..."

Before Hua Chao could finish his words, a hurried report came from outside the hall.

Let people in quickly when the flowers bloom.

"Sir! Lord Lu Qi from the Eastern Region entered the country not long ago!"

"You're so quick..." Hua Chao complained.

Hua Shi waved his hand, "Nothing, I know, just let him come."

"Yes!"

After everyone left, Hua Shi estimated the time, went to check Cass's learning progress for the day, and then slowly returned to the hall.

Not long after they sat down, someone came to report that Lu Qi had arrived outside the palace.

Hua Shi couldn't help but complain that the speed was really fast.

"Let him in."

After waiting for a while, a tall and handsome eight-winged angel hurriedly walked in from outside.

Hmm...the kind that glows white.

Hua Shi couldn't help but squint his eyes. Ever since he became a fallen angel, he couldn't say he hated the white colors, but he would still try not to look at them.

Even his palace has been changed to a dark style, which, I have to say, is quite atmospheric.

But in this slightly gloomy environment, Lu Qi, a large, glowing white angel, walked in, like a 2,000-watt light bulb.

Not to mention, the area around him was indeed illuminated.

"Ah Shi!"

Hua Shi walked down the stairs leisurely, "Why are you in such a hurry? I can't run away..."

When he got closer, he found that Lu Qi's eyes were full of anxiety and worry, and he couldn't help but frowned, "What's wrong with you?"

Lu Qi first looked him up and down, and only heaved a sigh of relief after making sure he was okay. "As soon as I entered the country, I heard those angels saying that you had become a fallen angel. I thought you were in danger..."

Hua Shi was stunned, "Ah? Ah Chao didn't tell you? I became a fallen angel the moment I arrived."

"I... I forgot." Hua Chao felt a little guilty. When he heard Hua Shi talking about Kailos, he suddenly forgot to tell the other party about the situation.

"I'm glad you're okay..." Lu Qi didn't blame him.

"Then let me tell you what I found."

Hua Shi told him everything that had happened in the past few days in detail.

Including the information about "God" that he discovered when he came to this world.

"What do you think after listening to this?"

Lu Qi touched his chin and said, "Actually, I have some information as well."

"Oh?" Hua Shi raised an eyebrow, showing interest. "Tell me about it."

"My original owner particularly liked to study humans. When I first arrived, I was in his secret room, so I saw a lot of information that could be called top secret."

When Lu Qi talked about his gains, his frown never relaxed.

"In that secret room, I found a strange record from the history of a long-extinct human country that the original owner had discovered."

"What record?"

"Regarding the records of an old wizard ascending to godhood, I guess it may be related to the information you discovered."

The record said that during the reign of a king of that country, an old wizard came and claimed that he could see into the secrets of heaven.

At that time, the country was suffering from the plague, and the whole country was in misery.

The old wizard found the king and said that he had great power and could help him solve the plague.

The king had no other options, so he placed his last hope on him.

Under the operation of the old wizard, the plague actually gradually subsided and the whole country slowly recovered.

The king was overjoyed and treated the old wizard as a guest of honor.

Because of the old wizard, the country is getting better and better, but the king is old and he has not enjoyed it well. Seeing the old wizard's powerful strength, he asked him hopefully if there is any way to prolong his life.

The old wizard told him that he could, but that method was against human ethics and required living people to conduct the experiment.

The king was hesitant at first, but later his desire for immortality gradually overcame morality and humanity, so he began to capture people from the slums and send them to the old wizard for experiments.

Who cares about people in the slums? It's normal for some to disappear.

Since the old wizard needs the king to send him people continuously, he will naturally not treat him unfairly.

The king's health improved day by day. He believed that the old wizard had the ability to make him immortal, so he tried his best to satisfy his request for a living person.

Later on, not only the common people in the slums, but also some low-status nobles began to disappear gradually.

The people in the kingdom were in panic, but the king was completely obsessed with the goal of immortality and didn't care about the demands of his subordinates at all.

The old wizard got more and more living people, and his experiments went more and more smoothly. Sometimes, when he was in a good mood, he would even let the king in to watch his experimental process.

The king saw that the old wizard often held an irregular crystal in his hand, half black and half white. He didn't know what it was used for, but it should be very important.

The king didn't care about these, he only cared about the result of this longevity experiment.

But the old wizard had no intention of meeting his request from the beginning.

The reason why he coaxed him was simply that he needed too many living people as materials to refine a new, younger body.

The final result, of course, was that the king did not wait for immortality, but instead lost his life.

The old wizard's soul entered the newly refined body and burst out with huge energy.

According to the visions seen in several surrounding countries at the time, everyone believed that the old wizard had finally ascended to become a god.

Because they really saw a young and handsome man slowly rising into the air and disappearing into the clouds.

It is said that from then on, people on earth gradually began to believe in gods, and after they prayed devoutly, many handsome men and women with wings on their backs really descended from the sky.

They claim to be messengers of the gods, coming down to earth to deliver oracles...

"This is the record I found about the birth of the "God." Lu Qi's eyes were filled with sarcasm. He really didn't have a good impression of this "God."

Hua Shi lowered his eyes and thought. According to what Lu Qi said and the information he had obtained, he could roughly confirm that the irregular crystal in the old wizard's hand was the crystal of Kailos' power that they were looking for.

"Ashi, what do you think of this story?"

"I don't have any feelings, but this story is probably true."

"I think so."

"That old wizard became a god by relying on the power of crystals... But the power contained in crystals is too strong. Even if he built a body specifically for this purpose, he would never be able to survive for more than a hundred years."

"But the fact is, he was still issuing oracles thousands of years after he became a god." Lu Qi walked to the steps and sat down casually, resting his elbows on his knees, "And he lost contact five hundred years ago."

Hua Shi pursed her lips and walked over to sit beside him. The huge wings behind her flapped gently unconsciously, creating a slight breeze.

"His power all comes from the crystal. Something must have happened, causing him to be unable to use the power of the crystal..."

Hua Shi suddenly remembered Cass who was still in the library, and an idea flashed in his mind, "It's Kairos!"
