Star Sea's Strongest Violent Assistant

Chapter 491 Father and son talk, crisis is coming

Lion Palace, Back Garden
"Good boy, I am no longer your opponent now."

The Lion King threw away his badly damaged battle suit, put on a cloak again, and said with emotion.

Thinking back to the time when that young boy who needed his protection had grown to such a height in just over a decade, he had even surpassed this old guy.

Rhine Gutt had never admitted defeat in his life, but in front of Su Mo's amazing talent, he had to admit that he was far inferior to his adopted son and son-in-law.

"This is all thanks to my father's good teaching~"

Su Mo smiled slightly. This sentence was not really a compliment. After he was promoted to God King, he would have a father-son game with his father from time to time.

But you have to know that at that time, my father was already a martial artist at the pinnacle of the Divine King level, and all he had to do was ignite his divinity to reach the pinnacle of the universe.

And he is just a rookie of the God King.

Rather than saying it was a competition, it would be more like his father giving him guidance and training.

In this process, his combat experience and skills improved by leaps and bounds, and he integrated what he had learned through repeated training and reached perfection.

It can be said that without his father, it would be difficult for him to reach his current heights.

The Lion King smiled, raised his hand and motioned Su Mo to sit down, and the two began to discuss the current situation in the starry sea.

"Dad, I think the Glorious Federation will most likely transfer me to the front line next."

Su Mo took out a bottle of moonlight wine produced by the elves from the storage space, poured a glass for the Lion King, and said slowly:
"Currently, the Void Black Tide has occupied more than half of the Shining Abyss. This star field is located at the junction of the three major civilizations. Previously, due to its sensitive location, there had been constant disputes. Now, as the Void Black Tide continues to erode the Shining Abyss, the occupied area is getting larger and larger, forcing the three major civilizations to join hands to fight the enemy. However, judging from the current results, the effect is not good."

"If the situation deteriorates further, the three civilizations will definitely summon more experts and troops to wipe out the Void Black Tide in the Shining Star Abyss. If nothing unexpected happens, I will be on the list of recruits."

Su Mo took a sip of the sweet and clear moonlight wine and continued:

"After I leave, the Lion Palace and the Holy Light Army will depend on you, Dad, to protect them. In addition, the Chaos Star Region is our base camp and the basic situation. You still have to take care of it, Dad."

As a worshiper of the God King of the Glorious Federation, Su Mo has enjoyed a lot of support in terms of policies and resources in the past few years, but he has also fulfilled his obligations as a worshiper in return.

When the Glorious Federation issued a call, he had to take up the post as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be regarded as disobedience and betrayal to the Federation, and the consequences would be unbearable even for him.

The Lion King is not a god worshipped by the three major civilizations, so he is not subject to the jurisdiction of the three major civilizations and can guard the base camp with peace of mind.

"Don't worry, I will guard this place well."

The Lion King nodded, his tone calm but revealing a strong sense of dominance.

As a pinnacle God-King martial artist, there are only a handful of people in the entire universe who can defeat him. Others are afraid of the black tide of the void, and those elusive Demon Emperors and Demon Lords, but he, Rhine Gutt, is not afraid at all.

"It will be fine as long as Dad is here."

Su Mo smiled slightly. Although his father has been quite low-key in recent years, his strength has been improving bit by bit. Don't forget that the Lion King Rhine Gut was also an amazing martial arts genius in his time. He defeated several God Kings with a pair of iron fists and it was hard to find an opponent in the universe.

Besides, my father has several resurrection coins on him, and he left his mark in Valhalla early on, so there is no need to worry about his safety.

Not only that, he also left several backup plans in the base camp, enough to ensure the safety of those around him.

"By the way, Dad, have you made any progress in missionary work recently?" Su Mo asked. Now the Lion King is only one step away from igniting his divinity, and igniting his divinity requires a huge amount of faith power.

For those powerful gods, they already know the key to igniting divinity, so they will plan hundreds of years in advance and cultivate a group of believers.

My dad came from a grassroots background and was isolated from information. He only learned the secret of igniting divinity a few years ago, so he was indeed far behind in the power of faith.

What's also a bit embarrassing is that compared to professions that rely more on knowledge, such as mechanics, magicians, or telekineticists, martial artists are inherently relatively weak in cultivating believers.

After all, mechanics, magicians, telepaths, or people with special powers can all perform some "miracles" in the eyes of ordinary people.

And what can a martial artist show?

A strong and muscular figure?
Rock-sculpted muscles?

Or is it the destructive power of a pile driver?
Divine King martial artists have always faced such embarrassing situations, so many martial artists would give themselves other identities in order to gain more believers.

For example, the empire's iron-blooded military god broke new ground in the military, taking a different approach but with remarkable results.

The Lion King hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "Don't worry, take your time."

There seemed to be some helplessness in his tone.

In fact, Su Mo also knew that his father's process of cultivating believers was not smooth. On the one hand, it was because he started late, and on the other hand, it was also related to his father's personality.

Lion King Rhine Gutt is such a proud and domineering person that he is unwilling to do some "secret" things. What he can do now is to open the Lion King Dojo and teach the secrets of martial arts.

Although this approach can gain some believers, the speed and efficiency are obviously not that high.

Fortunately, this is not the only way to gain the power of faith.

Su Mo told the Lion King how he had killed the White Demon King not long ago, and how he had won the gratitude of all the soldiers in the Macedonian Fortress, which greatly increased the power of his faith.

After listening, the Lion King's eyes showed surprise. This was the first time he heard of this method.

However, Su Mo's words cheered him up. Cultivating believers in the conventional way was indeed a bit slow, but if saving others could also gain the power of faith, then this was undoubtedly a very suitable environment.

With the threat of the void black tide ahead, the entire universe is plunged into panic and crisis, and the chaotic star field is also unable to remain immune.

In the past two years, several civilizations or large forces have been attacked by the void black tide. Thanks to the star field network that Su Mo had laid out in advance, connecting the major star regions together, using star gates as links, and arranging coalition forces to garrison at multiple important portal sites, timely responses were made, which saved the victims from destruction.

During this process, he seldom took action. Most of the time, it was the core teams of the Lion Palace and the Holy Light Legion that went out to fight, and he stayed in the base camp to prevent the tiger from being lured away.

However, after listening to what Su Mo said, he decided that if necessary, he could take the initiative to attack and kill the Void Demon Emperor, so as to efficiently gain the power of faith.

Next, Su Mo and the Lion King had a more detailed discussion on the next development plans for the Lion Palace and the Holy Light Legion.

But what Su Mo didn't know was that his strong return also attracted the attention of the Void Black Tide.

A pair of invisible black hands quietly enveloped him.
