"Where does the orphanage get its funding? Does it all come from donations from kind-hearted people? I'll donate 500,000 Liheng coins first!"
"How could we let you bleed so much? The orphanage is funded by the Ohmama Finance Department. This kind of basic livelihood security is a non-profit organization."
The old Ohmma might not have been able to handle it, and in the post-apocalyptic context, problems arise one after another.
However, the holy city is not what it used to be.
Without Hua Yi needing to emphasize it repeatedly, Sai Fei'er could understand.
The girl stared at the savior for a long time, as if she had made a decision, and her lively expression gradually turned serious.
"Hua Zi, come with me to Dawn Cloud Cliff. I have something very important to tell you—about the Titan of the Negative World."
Originally, Saifei's job was to act as a guide and lead Hua Yi and his group to Stikosia.
Having truly understood Hua Yi's character, she felt it necessary to reveal another major secret first, to prevent things from going wrong later.
Chapter 764 The Altar of the Negative World
Cephall, the Titan who brought ruin to the world, is the god worshipped by the citizens of Ohma.
Among the twelve Titans of Onpharos, the Necropolis is the most revered. Besides the special status of Ohma, which was established as the capital of Cerlydra a thousand years ago, the Dawn Machines illuminate all directions, allowing everyone to directly bask in the divine grace of light, which is also an important reason.
Hua Yi came into contact with several Titans, including [Conflict], [Rationality], and [Memory], but he did not communicate with [Negative World], who was right next to him.
This precisely illustrates a point.
"Cephalo is also known as the Throne of the World, which, in layman's terms, is the throne that can rule the whole world."
Sai Fei'er walked beside Hua Yi and began to introduce the Titan of the Negative World.
"In mythology, Cephalus created humankind. To protect the flame of civilization, it relinquished its supreme authority and remained in the mortal realm, even holding up the light with its body when the Black Tide raged—do you know how important this Titan is?"
"know."
Hua Yi nodded.
As they spoke, the two had already reached Dawn Cloud Cliff and continued to venture deeper.
Upon seeing the arrival of the savior, the soldiers guarding the area bowed their heads in respect from afar. The demigod council, which was originally only open during the Citizens' Assembly, and the sacrificial ground, which was only accessible to high priests in the deeper part, were both completely open to Hua Yi.
He traveled unimpeded, even with Saifeier by his side. This cunning demigod was usually away from home and was a stranger to the Ohma Guard, yet not a single soldier stepped forward to stop him.
Just kidding, guests approved by the savior must be distinguished, how could there be the slightest doubt?
The armored guards stood like statues on both sides of the road. When Hua Yi's figure appeared at the end of the long road, the captain of the guards at the front saluted first and pounded his breastplate with his fist, making a loud clanging sound.
This action, like a toppled domino, is passed down along the winding white stone steps and magnificent colonnades.
The soft clanging of armor blended into a solemn sound, and every guard stood ramrod straight, their heads bowed slightly in respect, frozen in the utmost reverence and worship.
Especially when Hua Yi approaches, the guards will step aside and back a few seconds in advance to make way for a wider path. Their synchronized movements create a visually striking scene that leaves Sai Feier speechless with shock.
She muttered to herself only after passing the guards.
"The Star Train has only been in Onphalos for a few days, and you already have such great prestige?"
“I reach out to people and they are grateful in return. It’s a case of sincerity for sincerity, isn’t it?”
Hua Yi smiled and asked in return.
As they ventured deeper into the dawn machine, the "sunlight" shone exceptionally brightly.
The backdrop features the divine form of the Titan of the Necropolis, with the blazing sun upon its back; in the foreground are neatly arrayed guards and a magnificent yet aesthetically pleasing corridor…
From Sai Fei'er's perspective, Hua Yi occupies the center, while everyone else becomes a mere backdrop.
Then, upon seeing the savior's handsome smile—
Ah, no wonder Aglaia likes him!
Sai Fei'er quickly shook her head to drive away the chaotic thoughts.
Just then, the two arrived at the Altar of Negative World.
A giant higher than mountains, Cephalo, bearing the machine of dawn, bows down for the world, standing silently there, with the Altar of the World positioned precisely where its head bows.
Standing on the altar, one feels as if receiving the gaze of the gods.
It was precisely because the Dawn Machine always shone with light that, even though Cephalus had remained silent for centuries, priests could come to the altar, witness the magnificent body of the revered god, and find solace in it.
Look, the Cefalmark still stands here!
As for why the gods have not sent any further omens over the long years, there must be some other reason.
With the arrival of the Star Train at Onfaros, Hua Yi embarks on a journey of salvation, and the Ohmans have found their answer—
From the day the Savior descends, Onphalus is destined to usher in a new chapter. Cephalus no longer needs to deliver divine pronouncements; the Savior will lead all people!
Saifei silently examined the body of the god Kefale. After a while, she turned around and, taking advantage of the high ground of the Altar of the Underworld, looked down at the Holy City.
"Hua Zi, you've brought about a great change. Even though Kefalle remains silent, the citizens can live and work in peace and contentment, and there's no longer any confusion in their hearts..."
"Hmm~"
"Even if you say you can lead them to charge into the Black Tide, I will believe you. Even if there is an abyss of death ahead, many people should still go without hesitation."
Hua Yi did not refute this.
He looked at Saifei'er's profile. Both had lived for a thousand years, but Aglaia appeared mature and elegant, while Saifei'er retained her girlish charm, lively and energetic.
At this moment, the thief girl looked worried.
"What's wrong? Is it the Demigod of Deception's turn to be confused? Well, one of my side jobs is being a psychologist. Come on, let me heal your heart."
"If... I mean if! If Kefaller malfunctions, can you fix it? Even if the Dawn Machine loses its radiance and darkness engulfs Ohma, can you still protect the people and defend the Holy City?"
"I can."
Hua Yi gave an affirmative answer too quickly, as if he hadn't thought it through properly and hadn't realized what terrifying truth was hidden behind Sai Feier's probing remarks.

But Sai Fei'er saw it; Hua Yi's expression was very serious, not feigned.
He was serious.
He really can do it!
"Hahaha." (For super-exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Sai Feier suddenly burst into laughter, laughing so hard she bent over backwards and waved her hands repeatedly.
"Hey, I was just kidding, why are you taking it so seriously? Don't you know that the specialty of [Trickery] is deception? See, you got fooled!"
"Oh……"
Hua Yi pretended to be injured and covered his chest.
"So, even after I gave my answer so earnestly, I still couldn't get Miss Saifei's honesty in return? My heart aches so much."
"Just kidding, it's just friendly banter, don't be upset about it!"
She poked Hua Yi's chest and felt a heart beating strongly there, but Sai Fei'er's smile remained unchanged.
"In short, don't underestimate the power of [trickery]!"
“I have never underestimated her.” Hua Yi met the thief’s gaze calmly.
Those eyes were so deep, as if they held countless truths, that the latter's smile froze, and he quickly looked away, feeling that if their eyes continued to meet, the atmosphere would become very ambiguous.
It's also possible that Saifeier is just overthinking things.
"...Aglaia should be well-rested by now. I saw you sent messages to the others earlier. Everyone must be ready to set off now, right? Let's go, destination Stikocia!"
On the surface, Saifei didn't reveal any secrets.
But she believed she had made herself quite clear. With Hua Yi's wisdom, even if she couldn't immediately make connections, she would guess the answer soon enough.
At least, at this moment, the Dawn Machine is still shining on the land of Onphalus, and there are no problems yet.
By the time the problem arises, everyone's strength should be even greater.
“Aglaia messaged me earlier, briefly mentioning that it seemed Krydella, Heather, and Tirispius were all in Stikosia. Is that true? I’ve been there before, and it was deserted.”
"Just watch what I do next."
It was Hua Yi's turn to pat Sai Fei'er on the shoulder.
"Speaking of which, since you call me Hua Zi, shouldn't I follow suit and give you a nickname? How about this, taking the last 'er' from the name Sai Fei Er, I'll call you Son!"
"You big-headed devil!"
Sai Fei'er's face darkened, and she immediately bristled.
Chapter 765 Sai Fei'er's Speed Force!
--ha!
Sai Fei'er slightly hunched her back, her golden eyes widened, her pupils almost vertical, filled with shame and indignation.
The cat is hissing!
Although considering her identity as a cunning demigod, the wrath of a god should be quite intimidating, in Hua Yi's perspective, there is no god at all, just a cute creature fiercely contributing meme-worthy expressions.
Hua Yi raised his hand, pointed at the sky and poked at Sai Feier's puffed-up cheek.
"puff."
This time she couldn't breathe out, and all of it leaked out with a puff.
Sai Fei'er could do nothing but glare at Hua Yi in embarrassment and anger. She couldn't very well actually lay a hand on the savior.
Regardless of the difference in strength, it's simply a matter of morality!
Ten minutes later, the passengers of the Star Train, along with Aglaia, Xia Die, Feng Jin, and other Golden Blood members, gathered outside the gates of Ohmar. Mimi and Cesis were also present. "200"
When did they become so close?
Aglaia was momentarily stunned to see Hua Yi and Sai Feier standing close together.
It had only been two hours, yet Sai Feier and Hua Yi were already acting like close friends.
What... what happened?
In Aglaia's memory, Saifeier was clearly arrogant and aloof. Her enthusiasm was only superficial. It was easy for her to exchange a few words with someone she met, but there was no reason why a truly friendly relationship could be established in just two hours!
This is faster than when Hua Yi and I first made contact after the Star Train arrived in Onfaros!
Aglaia recalled her wariness back then, and compared it to Saifei's current outgoing nature, she felt it paled in comparison.
Luckily, I arrived first. Fei'er knew Hua Yi earlier than me, otherwise I might have been ranked later and given up the title of the number one in Onfaros.
What's the first person? Of course, it's the first person to win in love.
"Oh dear, the sun is shining brightly, it's the perfect time to set off!"
Saifeier didn't notice Aglaia's side. She greeted Hua Yi's companions one by one, holding the dried fish that Estella had given her, and ate it with relish.
"You're planning to send everyone out, leaving not a single person behind in Ohmma?"
"It's alright, I can handle everything, Ohmma will be fine."
Hua Yi made a commitment.
Seeing Aglaia's expression and noticing that the usually cautious seamstress had no objections and completely trusted the savior, Saifei stopped worrying.
"Alright, alright, it's a rare opportunity for me to show off my skills, so I'll demonstrate a couple of moves for you—by the way, now the Narrow-Dwelling Princess can control her powers, right? She won't lead people to death through physical contact."
The princess of the slumbering house was referring to Xia Die.
"Ah."
The butterfly nodded gently.
She stood quietly in the crowd, enjoying a social experience she could never have dreamed of before.
Upon hearing Sai Feier mention her abilities, Xia Die lowered her eyelids slightly.
The more the girl immersed herself in the wonderful world created by Hua Yi, the more she understood that death was not a blessing, but a separation, and she also felt sorrow for her past as a holy maiden who was favored by death.
"Don't forget."
Even though Hua Yi was surrounded by beautiful women, he still paid attention to everyone's mood. Noticing that Xia Die was briefly distracted, he spoke meaningfully.
“There really is a city at the end of the west wind, which I helped build by exerting my power across the years. In Onphalus, a ostensible departure is not the end of life; there is a paradise that welcomes all the noble.”
"Your Excellency means...!"
