The Sea God Cult

One hundred and seventy cups of beer,

enough to fill a swimming pool.

The small body of Tie Chui actually possessed such a huge capacity,

it was simply unbelievable.

The moment Tie Chui drank one hundred and seventy cups of beer in half an hour,

the competition could already be declared over,

because the subsequent contestants couldn't drink one hundred and seventy cups even if they exhausted themselves.

But Tie Chui didn't call for a stop,

and the Professionals Association naturally didn't terminate the competition.

Moreover, after these Blacksmiths realized they couldn't beat Tie Chui,

they completely relaxed their mindset.

The original beer-drinking competition turned into a carnival exclusively for Blacksmiths.

That evening,

Tie Chui returned to the Villa, satisfied.

After Lin Yuan learned of this situation,

he silently sighed in his heart.

Tie Chui didn't just generally like drinking;

the future alcohol expenses would be a significant problem.

He wondered if the Blacksmith Association could reimburse Tie Chui's future liquor bills.

Lin Yuan pondered this question,

and slowly drifted off to sleep.

After Lin Yuan fell asleep, Zero also entered sleep mode,

The temperature and humidity inside the Villa were maintained at a very comfortable level... Meanwhile,

inside a Small Tavern near the coast of Binhai City,

some people were plotting to disrupt the Placement Exam of the Southwest Province.

The door of the Small Tavern was tightly shut,

and five mysterious people wearing blue robes gathered around a table.

A soundproofing Barrier had been cast around the table,

ensuring no sound would travel outside.

A red-haired young man spoke first,

“Gentlemen, the students from the senior high schools of the Southwest Province will arrive in Binhai City tomorrow.”

“People from the Ministry of Education will also be present.”

“Should we still proceed with our plan.”

“What, Fierce Fire, are you scared?”

The one who spoke was the muscular man to the right of the red-haired young man.

Fierce Fire was the red-haired young man's name.

“Zhuang Qiang, what do you mean.” Fierce Fire narrowed his eyes,

revealing a dangerous look in his gaze,

“Why would I be scared.”

“I'm just worried that a Master from the Ministry of Education might discover you guys.”

“It doesn't matter if you guys die, just don't delay the plan for the Lord Sea God's arrival.”

Zhuang Qiang was the muscular man's name.

He was two meters tall, his body bulging with muscles,

and his head was shiny, resembling a Demon Muscle Man.

“Kid, you should worry about yourself first.” Zhuang Qiang folded his arms,

grinning to reveal his large, white front teeth.

“We aren't like you; our identities are very clean.”

“If anyone gets caught, you'll be the first.”

“Mr. Fugitive.”

These words immediately struck a nerve with Fierce Fire.

Everyone else had legitimate public identities in Binhai City,

but only he,

was a Grade B Fugitive sought by the Law Enforcement Team.

Bang!

Fierce Fire slammed his palm onto the table,

cracking the corner of the table.

It was clear how angry Fierce Fire was.

“What, did I say something wrong.” Zhuang Qiang's eyes were full of mockery,

emitting a cold aura,

ready to fight at the slightest disagreement.

At this moment, the middle-aged man sitting in the main seat spoke,

“Sit down, both of you.”

The man's name was Zhong Bai, around forty years old, with a refined appearance,

wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

He was Level 60, the Great High Priest of the Sea God Cult.

Fierce Fire and Zhuang Qiang were both Protectors of the Sea God Cult.

The former was Level 55, and the latter was Level 56.

Among those present, Zhong Bai had the highest position and was the strongest,

so when he spoke,

Fierce Fire and Zhuang Qiang immediately shut their mouths and stopped arguing.

Zhong Bai ignored Fierce Fire and Zhuang Qiang,

turning his gaze to the short-haired woman who had remained silent.

“Xiao Die, has the Dungeon for this Placement Exam been confirmed?”

“How many days will it last.”

Xiao Die raised her head and replied expressionlessly,

“The exam will be held the day after tomorrow and will last for 1 day in total.”

“The Dungeon for the exam is tentatively set as the Spring of Tides.”

“The Spring of Tides is in the South District, far from the Deep Sea Cage, so it won't affect our plan.”

Hearing that the exam location was in the South District, Zhong Bai showed a faint smile,

“The Spring of Tides, truly an excellent choice.”

“Xiao Die must have put in a lot of effort.”

“I merely provided objective options,” Xiao Die's face remained cold,

“The final decision still rests with the higher-ups.”

“You are too modest.” Zhong Bai took off his glasses and gently wiped them,

“Since it has been confirmed that the exam will not affect us, we will proceed with the original plan.”

“Fierce Fire, the Law Enforcement Team will likely be more active than usual these days, so stay in the Small Tavern and don't go out.”

“Everything will be discussed after the Sea God arrives.”

Although Fierce Fire was somewhat reluctant, he still nodded in agreement,

“I understood.”

Zhong Bai put his glasses back on,

sweeping his gaze over Zhuang Qiang, Fierce Fire, and Xiao Die,

finally landing on the last person.

“Cui Tong, for these three days, you and Zhuang Qiang will guard the vicinity of the Deep Sea Cage 24 hours a day. Ensure no one else approaches.”

Cui Tong seemed unwilling to speak, only nodding slightly.

Zhong Bai stood up from his seat,

placing his hands on the table,

“Everyone, the Sea God's arrival is imminent.”

“In three days, the entire Blue Star will submit at the Sea God's feet.”

“We shall be the founders of the New Era.”

Zhong Bai placed his left hand on his chest, his expression pious.

“Long Live the Sea God!”

The others also stood up, making the same gesture as Zhong Bai,

their expressions fanatical, shouting loudly,

“Long Live the Sea God!”

...The next day,

Lin Yuan slept until ten o'clock.

If it weren't for the call from Chen Hongwei, Lin Yuan estimated he would have slept until noon.

“Hello, Old Chen Hongwei, why are you calling me so early?”

“Don't worry, I didn't forget, isn't the departure this afternoon?”

“Just gather at the entrance of First High School, I have transportation.”

Hanging up the phone, Lin Yuan stretched.

“Zero, I want to eat fish.”

By the time he finished dressing and went downstairs,

Zero had already prepared all the food.

“Master, this is Steamed Sea Bass, Boiled Fish, and Mandarin Fish with Pine Nuts; there will also be Braised Turbot shortly.”

Zero was very thorough in its preparations.

Lin Yuan sat down, picked up a piece of sea bass, and put it in his mouth.

It was fresh and fragrant,

even more delicious than what a Nine-Star Restaurant made.

Absolutely amazing.

While eating, Lin Yuan silently thought,

Zero speaks nicely, cooks deliciously, is on standby 24 hours a day,

has no bad habits,

and is entirely focused on serving Lin Yuan.

Where else could he find such a perfect subordinate?

After eating, Lin Yuan walked out of the Villa.

“Zero, let's go, I'll take you to the seaside for some fun.”

Before his words fell, Zero instantly understood Lin Yuan's intention.

Its body rapidly transformed,

turning into a very striking Fighter Jet.

It had a pure white fuselage,

with red and blue stripes on the wings.

Seen from afar, it looked noble and mysterious.

Lin Yuan stepped into the cockpit, his expression joyful,

“Destination: First High School.”

“Take off.”

The thrusters at the rear of the Fighter Jet emitted a blue light,

and with a “swoosh,” the Fighter Jet disappeared above the Villa,

appearing on the playground of the First High School in less than 1 minute.

Lin Yuan opened the cockpit window,

looked at the bewildered teachers and students, and shouted,

“Principal Chen, why are you standing there stunned? Hurry up and bring the students aboard!”
