No wonder Su Lin spoke so eloquently about the establishment of the Church's doctrines.
Turns out he was a god too!
He was the primordial god of this MC Dungeon, which was about to overthrow the Heavens and take its place!
It all connected!
Everything connected!
Archangel Tashiniya's intelligence once again took the high ground.
"Smack!"
Su Lin, who had walked over to her at some point, knocked her head with a dark expression.
"You're not allowed to revoke my human status!"
"Ugh… I wasn't wrong!"
Tashiniya clutched her head, glaring at Su Lin with a mournful expression.
The true manager of the MC Dungeon, riding a giant dragon that surpassed all limits, with power emanating strong divine factors… That's right!
Plus, he could share this power with others.
Isn't this clearly a divine blessing?
Sitting back down in his chair, Su Lin chuckled and began.
"Although everyone has seen me before, for such a formal meeting, a proper self-introduction is in order."
"I am the guide of this MC Dungeon."
Tashiniya and the others remained silent, quietly watching Su Lin.
After a long while, Tashiniya softly said:
"Just a guide?"
Su Lin smiled without answering, letting them ponder his other identities themselves.
Unfortunately, such questions were clearly not something the foolish Tashiniya could delve into.
Tashiniya was more concerned about another question.
"So… you deliberately approached us before? Was your goal to assess whether we were qualified to enter the MC Dungeon?"
Su Lin did not deny it, but instead asked:
"Do you feel deceived?"
"Hmm… just a little bit."
Tashiniya scratched her cheek.
This kind of plot felt very similar to the romance novels she had read in the scientific world in the Heavens.
Like a rich young master pretending to be an ordinary person to approach the female lead, dating her as a commoner.
So… Tashiniya clapped her hands with a knowing look.
"I'm the legendary female lead then!"
How did this guy even come up with that?
Su Lin still couldn't quite understand Tashiniya's thought process.
He had thought this fool would shout about "deception" and "betrayal" and angrily bang on the table.
"Actually, this Archangel is already used to such things."
Tashiniya shrugged, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
"Tashiniya is an easily fooled idiot—that's what those guys in the Heavens always say."
"Even after coming to the Aetheram Continent, everyone who approached me had various intentions, using my Archangel status, inquiring about the secrets of the Heavens and so on, it's quite normal."
Su Lin and the others were stunned by these words.
How could Tashiniya say such things so nonchalantly?
"With all due respect, Ms. Tashiniya…"
Veronika pursed her lips.
"You don't seem to mind being used repeatedly."
"Of course not, if it's been like this for so many years, you just get used to it."
Tashiniya replied with a frank expression.
"For example, Lulu's father wants to use my Archangel essence to completely free Lulu from the restrictions of the demon race."
"For example, An Duo's clansmen want to use me to lift Lulu's poverty curse and obtain a trace of divinity."
"For example, Weini, for example, Deconis, for example, Su Lin…"
"You wouldn't think this Archangel is really stupid, would you? This Archangel is a prospective outstanding graduate of Angel Academy, no matter what!"
For a moment, the room fell into a deep silence.
Looking at the blue-haired Archangel with that silly grin, for the first time, everyone realized that this guy was actually quite clever.
Tashiniya seemed to have always been able to see through others' covetousness towards her.
Hilulele pursed her lips, hesitating:
"Since that's the case…"
"That kind of thing isn't important. Doesn't everyone in the world gather together for warmth with various motives?"
Shock!
Were those words that could come from the mouth of a foolish Archangel?
Was this still Tashiniya?
"Captain…"
Lulu lowered her head, feeling a little ashamed. She truly didn't know her family's intentions.
Now she was even a little unsure how to face Tashiniya.
But Tashiniya, in turn, comforted Lulu.
"It's okay, I told you I'm already used to this kind of thing."
"Besides, even though I was used, didn't we still become good friends? You're not lying to me about that, are you?"
Su Lin was silent for a moment, then put away his smile and looked at Tashiniya seriously.
"No!"
"Then that's it! As long as I can make friends, being used a little is no big deal."
Gazing at Tashiniya's face, which always wore a silly grin, Su Lin felt that this Archangel's past seemed not as smooth as he had imagined.
However, he didn't want to delve too deeply; this was Tashiniya's secret.
Just as he was about to say something to comfort Tashiniya.
This guy chuckled again, fully displaying the demeanor of great wisdom appearing foolish.
"More importantly, what if I get angry with the Pope over this and he gets agitated and kicks us out?"
"This Archangel plans to grow into the most powerful god in the MC Dungeon, and then overthrow the Heavens!"
With that, Tashiniya sighed and patted Lulu's shoulder.
"My teacher taught me not to lose long-term benefits for a moment of anger! As an Archangel with a long life, one must always look to the long term!"
The somewhat awkward atmosphere was immediately derailed by Tashiniya.
He didn't know if this guy was doing it on purpose, or… Su Lin chuckled wryly, no longer thinking about it, and seized the opportunity to change the topic.
"In short, welcome everyone to the MC Dungeon. May you all have an infinite future, just like the MC Dungeon."
From an adaptability perspective, Veronika and the others clearly didn't accept things as quickly as Tashiniya and her companions.
Hearing Su Lin's words, they could only nod stiffly, but regarding the future, other than knowing they would prosper, they were completely clueless.
Where to start working, where to begin exploring… their past experiences were now completely mismatched with the MC Dungeon.
They didn't know how to communicate with an infinite Dungeon, nor how to start in a Dungeon where every floor was a world.
This job seemed no different from starting from scratch in a world without civilization.
Fortunately, Su Lin had already prepared the MC Dungeon Growth Manual.
It was a thick stack, even thicker than the Aetheram Continent's Encyclopedia of Magical Beasts.
"You must carefully read this book. It contains all the experience summarized by the Elven Kingdom during their exploration of the first three floors, which will be of great help to your exploration of the MC Dungeon."
After signaling the maids to distribute the books to everyone, Su Lin added:
"Hilulele must have told you a lot, and you already have some understanding of this. My only additional advice is, don't treat this as a Dungeon, treat it as a world to explore and develop."
"As long as you work hard, the MC Dungeon will respond to your every wish."
As soon as he finished speaking, An Duo's eyes visibly brightened.
She raised her short arm, staring at Su Lin with determination.
"Can it solve the poverty curse?"
Su Lin found it a bit difficult to answer.
He had thoroughly checked Lulu's poverty curse after entering the MC Dungeon.
As expected, it was a continuously refreshing persistent state; it would disappear one second and reappear the next.
This kind of thing was truly unsolvable at the moment.
However, it might not be impossible in the future.
Ultimately, in terms of abstraction, the MC Dungeon always transcended everything.
Su Lin smiled and gave Lulu a glimmer of hope.
"As the MC Dungeon continues to grow in the future, there should be a chance."
Although it wasn't the ideal outcome, An Duo was very happy.
The poverty curse was something even Tashiniya couldn't deal with, so seeing hope was already very good.
Veronika, however, couldn't help but be preoccupied.
Hilulele had told her to organize a absolutely loyal knight squad and wipe out Shudrak's remnants once those rats emerged.
Veronika believed the MC Dungeon could help her achieve all of this.
But the MC Dungeon was a Dungeon on a world scale.
To rely on just her and Meluti to explore worlds one by one and convert resources into strength…
Would there be enough time… However, Su Lin seemed to have seen through Veronika's thoughts, and he cheerfully stood up and smiled:
"Let's go. Just talking won't allow you to imagine the wonders of the MC Dungeon
"I'll take you to see the Elven Kingdom's development work, and then you'll understand what
