Chapter 95 The Divine Phantom
Upon hearing this, Lloyd looked at Alan with suspicion.
'Could this kid be some hidden big shot?'
Just as this thought crossed his mind, Lloyd suppressed it.
In all of Stellaria, he knew well enough who he couldn't afford to offend.
The person in front of him was definitely not one of them.
Moreover, the person in front of him was just an adventurer.
There were already few people he couldn't afford to offend, and among adventurers, there were none.
It was just bad luck that he had been out of the capital recently, only returning from a mission.
He had come here hoping to unwind, but then he encountered Alan.
Otherwise, if he had known what happened in the palace today, he certainly wouldn't have said such things.
"I don't care who you are; if you offend me, I'll kill you today."
Although NPCs in Central City would be punished for killing adventurers.
But today, having just returned from a successful mission, he naturally didn't care about that.
Moreover, given his status, even if he were punished for killing an adventurer, it wouldn't matter to him.
In other words, the punishment wouldn't affect him much; he could totally accept it.
Having made up his mind, he struck without hesitation.
As the Grand General of Stellaria, his combat strength was unquestionable; even a casual strike carried immense pressure.
Alan didn't dodge and took the blow head-on.
[-51,958.]
Just a casual strike took over fifty thousand of Alan's health points, which was quite impressive.
[You have been maliciously attacked by a Central City NPC. For the next twenty-four hours, you are permitted to retaliate.]
Alan showed no inclination to retaliate. "If you lay hands on me, I wonder how the Grand Marshal and the King would respond."
"Respond?"
Lloyd sneered disdainfully. "Kid, you're way too full of yourself. The Grand Marshal and His Majesty the King wouldn't punish me for a small fry like you."
"You think they won't? Then look at this!"
Alan raised his hand, and his aura suddenly changed.
Behind Alan, a towering shadow appeared.
Just the appearance of this shadow exuded a chilling aura, as if it could freeze the world.
"This is impossible!" Lloyd retreated in terror.
Th incredulous expressions on everyone's faces mirrored Lloyd's reaction upon seeing this shadow.
Immediately thereafter, everyone inside and outside of the Blossom Tower, whether they were ordinary civilian NPCs, fallen girls of the Blossom Tower, or even the royal nobles, all uniformly bowed in respect to Alan.
"Hail our god, may our god live forever!"
"Hail our god, may our god live forever!!"
Everyone shouted in unison, full of respect.
After the initial shock, Lloyd also knelt in reverence.
"Hail our god, may our god live forever!!"
The shadow behind Alan was none other than the Ice Goddess.
This shadow, projected by divine blessing, was also known as the Divine Shadow.
The Divine Shadow didn't add combat strength but could be used to intimidate opponents.
For example, now.
Alan used the Divine Shadow of the Ice Goddess to directly intimidate everyone present.
In the whole scene, there was only one other person who didn't kneel apart from Alan.
That was none other than Billy, the unparalleled beauty of the Blossom Tower.
Onlookers would undoubtedly be shocked by this sight.
After all, any NPC in Stellaria worshipped the Ice Goddess.
Not kneeling before the Ice Goddess meant renouncing one's faith.
Billy's lips curled into a meaningful smile.
"The Ice Goddess's blessing, he actually received the Ice Goddess's blessing. It seems the Ice Goddess is about to awaken."
In Billy's view, Alan receiving the Ice Goddess's blessing likely meant he had gained her approval.
After all, to clear the Snow Corpse's Footsteps dungeon, one either had to gain the Ice Goddess's approval or defeat her remnant soul.
Since he received the Ice Goddess's blessing, the answer was clear.
However, Billy could never have imagined Alan was a fraud, even deceiving the gods.
This wasn't his fault; it was the Ice Goddess's naivety.
At this moment, in Whispering Willow Haven.
Alan looked at Lloyd with great interest and said unhurriedly, "So, do you still want me to leave?"
Lloyd repeatedly kowtowed, trembling with fear as he said, "I wouldn't dare. I didn't know it was the divine emissary. Otherwise, even if I were a thousand times bolder, I wouldn't dare to show disrespect to the divine emissary."
Alan waved his hand and said, "Everyone out. You've ruined the mood."
Lloyd nodded repeatedly. "Yes."
Alan also told the women in the room, "You all leave too."
The nine women kneeling on the ground didn't dare delay and left immediately.
After they left, Alan finally smiled.
Although each of the nine women had their own charm, Alan knew very well.
'Women are trouble!'
This time, he came for the god-level hidden profession.
He couldn't let women delay him.
Just as Alan was about to break the vase, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Ice King."
Alan raised an eyebrow. At this moment, someone was looking for him.
Turning around, Alan was stunned.
In front of him appeared a voluptuous, breathtakingly beautiful woman.
Her beauty was such that Alan felt it was indescribable.
Moreover, she didn't kneel when she saw him, nor did she show any particular respect. Instead, she carried a hint of hostility.
One could even say, killing intent!!
Even after he revealed the Divine Shadow of the Ice Goddess, she still wanted to kill him.
This could only mean she wasn't from Stellaria, or she was a nightwalker.
"Are you Billy?"
Here, the only woman this beautiful Alan could think of was the Blossom Tower's top beauty, Billy.
As for his previous life, he had only heard of Billy, never actually seen her.
After all, the minimum expense to come to the Blossom Tower was five gold coins.
Given his status as a currency farmer in his past life, he couldn't afford such a high-end place.
He knew the strategy here because a high-level player had bragged about it after successfully changing professions.
Since he had already succeeded in changing professions, revealing it did no harm and could increase his popularity.
"That's right." Billy nodded. "You have gained the Ice Goddess's approval. It seems the Ice Goddess is about to awaken, and we must leave here."
"However, before we leave, I have decided to kill you once."
