"First Elder, do you truly trust him?"
Ando’s aged face showed a slight smile: "Yes, after experiencing so much, how could I not trust him?"
"No, no, I an, do you trust his abilities in this area?"
A glint of Divine Light flashed through Ando’s cloudy eyes.
"You all underestimate him. He probably isn’t even aware of how strong his potential is, but I trust him, just like I once trusted the King... But the King’s duties are too important; such matters cannot disturb him. Utilizing that kid’s intellect is my favorite thing to do right now."
Horus remained silent, still having difficulty changing his mindset. In his impression, Rod was still a naive young lad, frivolous and unaware of the weight of things.
Though he had beco the Fire Son, this impression remained unchanged.
Ando displayed a faint smile, the wrinkles on his face unfurling like an old chrysanthemum in full bloom.
"I have a premonition; I don’t have much ti left. Before I die, I will announce everything."
Horus furrowed his brows at once; undoubtedly, doing so would bring enormous prestige to Rod.
"You... You an, the Hidden Fire becos King?"
Ando gently shook his head: "No, it’s too early to discuss this topic now. The King is in his peak period; he should be able to sustain for at least ten more years."
"Go back, Horus. You have many things to do next."
Horus did not argue; how to calm this violent fervor without going to extres will be the focus of the Holy Church’s upcoming work.
Not only that, he also needed to cooperate with Lucian to identify and capture the hidden Doomsday believers among them.
Preparations for the King Candidate’s ceremony to advance to the Commander and the affairs brought by the new Special Level Combatants also needed attention.
Just thinking about all those intertwined tasks made Horus feel a headache.
Thus, he did not probe further but followed Ando’s advice, turned, and left the Supre Council.
Hopefully, everything is truly as Ando said.
He thought.

At the residence, Rod lay exhausted on phit’s lap, with Anna massaging beside him.
Kashan was practicing punches in the distance.
Originally, he wanted Kashan to co over and massage him, but seeing her thunderous heavy punches, he wisely changed the subject to Anna.
During this ti, he had been incessantly harassed by Ando.
Especially in recent days, every affair required sending a Spirit Crow ssenger to inquire about his opinion.
Rod felt almost driven crazy by him, but had to reply earnestly.
After all, he was already the Fire Son of Trolian, also serving as the Hidden Fire.
This should be my duty, right? Otherwise, why would the First Elder specifically co to consult my opinion?
Rod thought this way.
The result was a splitting headache from it all, making him reluctant to train, forcing him to lay down for rest.
"Hmm, so soft... Yes, right there, use so force."
Anna was not happy: "Have you had enough? I want to train. Today I just checked on the Spiritual Woman Group’s situation; all the sisters have entered the ranks of First Level Combatants. Jessica sister and Wendy sister have already stepped half into the Commander, while I’m still stuck at Third Level Combatant. At this rate, the gap between and the sisters is getting wider."
Rod was not surprised at all by this result.
The mbers of the Spiritual Woman Group are super geniuses; advancing to First Level Combatants was an eventuality.
Further advancing to beco Commanders is also very likely.
The saying "Power cos at a price" doesn’t apply to them at all.
Rod very much suspects they are also like him, shown by Asa on the Evil Thought Stele as "Life of Man."
Though it’s unclear what exactly the Spiritual Woman Group is.
Of course, he would definitely exclude Anna, she is simply the waste among the waste.
Rod spent resources on her equivalent to ten tis that of a combatant of the sa level.
Her own effort is also ten tis that of an equivalent combatant.
Under such circumstances, her growth was still pitifully slow, and increasingly slow as her Spiritual Power Level increased.
Rod felt that hard practice was no longer useful, it would be better to relax.
Even if growth is not possible, it doesn’t matter, Anna’s Spirit Spear is already useful enough.
"Don’t rush."
Rod smiled, comforting her.
"You’re in a bottleneck period now; rushing is useless, and will even backfire. Relaxing might help you find a breakthrough opportunity."
Upon hearing this, Anna cald down, continuing to exert force with her hands.
"Good, just like that, my sphincter finally gets to relax a bit. phit, quickly give a head massage."
But suddenly felt a cold sensation in his hands, phit’s voice ca from his ear: "Can you stop groping?"
Rod chuckled: "phit, you’ve been stuck in a bottleneck for a long ti too, if you don’t get so stimulation, how can you break through? Plus, I can thereby increase humanity... You wouldn’t want the curse to lose control due to lack of humanity, right?"
phit didn’t respond verbally, but the slightly chilling sensation around his head suggested disagreent with Rod’s words.
Just then, another Spirit Crow ssenger flew over, dropped off a letter, and left.
Rod opened it and found it was from Xingge indeed.
Since completing Quantification and Control Source Law, Xingge has been in deep slumber, unable to be awakened.
Xingge was extrely worried, but Rod dismissed it, writing on the back of the letter:
