Imprisoned for a Trillion Years, I Was Worshipped by All Gods!

"What? Death Legion? Silver token?"

The words Kaylyn spoke left Nina somewhat confused. She felt like she couldn't quite follow Kaylyn's train of thought.

What were all these terms about?

From Nina's storage crystal, she took out a token. This was something Rose's followers had created when they founded an organization. Rose had thought of needing a token as a symbol.

So, Nina had approached one of the alchemists at the academy to design it, and the alchemist completed the crafting. In the end, it was this token.

Nina had kept a few for herself, and handed the rest to Rose.

Unexpectedly, this person named Kaylyn was now saying that this was the highest-level token of the Death Legion?

Moreover, the dark iron token she held was almost identical to the silver token in Nina's hand, except for the material.

So, that meant… the Death Legion Kaylyn spoke of was actually founded by Rose?

Nina listened carefully to what Kaylyn had to say about the token.

Within the Death Legion, there were several types of tokens issued.

The lowest level was the iron token Kaylyn held, and the silver token, like the one Nina had, was only given to the founding members of the Death Legion or those who had made significant contributions to the Legion.

Nina nodded thoughtfully.

She had never imagined that the token she designed back then would evolve into a whole system under Rose's leadership.

Back then, she had created quite a few silver tokens, and even one colored token.

But it seemed Kaylyn didn't know about those.

"So, from what you're saying, this Death Legion is quite powerful?"

"Naturally. The eastern part of Lakecity is mostly under the control of the Death Legion now."

When Kaylyn said this, Daniel couldn't help but smile.

This was the path Rose had chosen for herself.

Over the years, Daniel had refrained from interfering in any way. He hadn't even looked into how Rose's progress was going.

As expected, his daughter had succeeded!

Daniel felt a deep sense of satisfaction.

As for Nina, she had mixed feelings. On one hand, she was genuinely happy for Rose, because she had achieved what she set out to do.

But on the other hand… Nina had also built her own influence over these years.

To say that she had no feelings about it would be impossible. She couldn't just let it slide, could she?

But then, looking at her Coven…

It seemed like they were no match for the Death Legion.

Apart from Nina herself, the strongest member of the Coven was Rikki the bear.

But Rikki, well, how should she put it?

His personality was a bit naive, and one jar of honey could probably lure him away.

Also… she wondered just how powerful Rose had become now.

When they all left back then, Rose's strength had already been impressive.

That destructive strike Nina had witnessed was unforgettable. Now… Rose must have become even more terrifying.

With that thought in mind, Nina walked up to Ryze and whispered,

"Ryze, I have a question for you."

"What's up?"

Ryze looked at Nina in confusion.

"Have you ever considered joining us in the Coven? You would be part of the management team, like Sarra and the others."

Ryze didn't immediately respond. He was thinking about why Nina would ask such a thing, and what the consequences might be if he refused.

Meanwhile, Daniel was conversing with Kaylyn:

"Are you planning to bring everyone from your organization to Riverside City?"

"Yes, that's the plan, senior."

Kaylyn noticed that the person who spoke was clearly the one with the highest prestige, and also the most handsome among them, so she adjusted her tone and address.

"Was the person who got injured one of your people?"

"No, that person… was from an organization that opposes mine. Thankfully, your people helped injure him."

"No problem. Let me correct you though—he wasn't just injured, he's dead," Daniel said casually.

Kaylyn was stunned.

She never expected that such a simple-looking strike from him would kill Siso instantly, and it made her realize just how terrifying true strength could be.

"Then, these people are now part of your organization?"

"Do you have any objections?"

Daniel looked toward the back of Kaylyn's group, where the former subordinates of Siso stood.

Kaylyn also turned her gaze.

This senior of theirs spoke in such a casual tone, as if it was a normal conversation. Could those people hear them?

As Kaylyn turned around, even though her strength wasn't that high, she could still see.

The people who had once followed Siso were all nodding, a look of relief on their faces, as though they had narrowly escaped.

What? Those people… they all heard this?

She had never imagined that this could even be possible.

Moreover, her lifelong rivals, the people who had once been her enemies, were now under her command.

It felt like a dream.

At this moment, Kaylyn knew she had to establish herself in the sanctuary.

Only by gaining a foothold there could she consider the future.

It was said that within the sanctuary, there were occasional fortuitous encounters that could help enhance one's qualifications.

As long as one could stand firm in the sanctuary, there was a chance for greater strength in the future.

In the following days, Daniel's group traveled together with Kaylyn and her people.

Along the way, he learned more about the changes Riverside City had undergone over the past few years.

Now, Riverside City was no longer the obscure, impoverished town it once was. It had truly become a holy city!

Countless people were flocking to Riverside City, hoping to settle nearby.

They also encountered many other groups along the way, all traveling from various places.

Their goal was the same.

Like Kaylyn, they all hoped to establish a foothold near Riverside City.

But unlike Kaylyn, they weren't as fortunate to have received the iron token.

They could only leave their futures to fate and hoped they would be able to carve out a future for themselves.

Soon, they arrived at a place where a crowd had gathered.

Looking around, many newly built houses could be seen: taverns, inns, and numerous small vendors doing business.

It looked like a city, but this wasn't actually a city.

There were no walls, and it could only be considered wilderness.

Despite that, it was bustling with life.

According to Kaylyn, this place was still some distance away from Riverside City.

Nina looked at the people around her. Even at Winterkeep Citadel, she didn't see so many people.

Whenever Nina went to Winterkeep Citadel for task exchanges, the streets there weren't this prosperous.

"Just a little farther ahead, and we'll reach Black Water City," Kaylyn explained to Nina.

"Black Water City?"

Nina's face showed confusion.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind.

"Could this so-called Black Water City be… the same as Black Water Town?"

Hearing Nina's question, Kaylyn shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.

She had only gathered information about Riverside City, and didn't know much about the other towns.

"Black Water City wasn't always this big. It's only developed in recent years," a passerby explained to the group.

"Back then, it was indeed called Black Water Town. It was just a small village. The market used to be frequently attacked by spell beasts, and everyone was preparing to move away."

"Then, one day, that leader from the Death Legion came, and together with her companions, they drove off the spell beasts. After that, Black Water Town slowly began to prosper."

"Later, as more and more people started traveling from here to Riverside City, the town eventually grew into what is now Black Water City."

"In Black Water City, there are even statues of that leader from the Death Legion and her companions when they first founded the Legion. You can go see them; they're free to visit now, no mana stone required."

"Thank you, sir," Nina said, grateful.

She hadn't expected Black Water Town, originally just a small village, to become such a place.

Now, she couldn't help but wonder—what would Riverside City look like in the future?
