I'm the Mysterious Leader of the Salvation Organization-Chapter 469:
Chapter 469:
Bai Yan listened quietly to the voice in his mind, although he didn’t fully understand it, he wasn’t really surprised or confused either.
Based on the various clues he had obtained all along, it seemed that he had a significant connection with the Connector and the God of Games. However, he didn’t appear to be their reincarnation but rather had some distinctiveness…
As for what specific distinctiveness it was, Bai Yan still didn’t know.
He actually wished that the annulus civilization could provide him with the answer directly.
However, the strange voice of the annulus civilization in his mind didn’t give him any definite answers, but kept on being a riddle to him.
[The annulus civilization is one of the great civilizations.]
[We are a pure civilization of souls, not originating from the so-called ‘dimension of reality’ or ‘dimension of matter’.]
[We were born and developed in a dimension opposite to this one, but we also had to face our own ultimate challenges.]
[Everything in World is like a clear and transparent ring.]
[Everything is within our grasp.]
[Even if you are not the chosen one, you should still receive what we had promised long ago.]
Through the power of telepathy, Bai Yan knew that the sound emitted by the other person was not in human language, yet he could fully understand its meaning.
He couldn’t help but recall the time when Maryse was dancing, and he was captivated by the moon, listening to unfamiliar voices.
"You are not him."
That was roughly the meaning that the will intended to express at the time.
Bai Yan took a deep breath, feeling a strange sense of relief. Perhaps, in the end, he was just Bai Yan, a mere ordinary being, and not some vessel of great significance.
This was a good thing for him.
[Take it, thou, for thou art the unforseen Savior]
[This is…]
[We]
In the next moment, the annulus suddenly surged into Bai Yan’s body, as if it wanted to tear his body and soul into pieces.
He didn’t resist.
A vast amount of information flooded in, and everything before his eyes began to change. His mind immediately became dazed, and in that daze, Bai Yan saw many incomprehensible scenes.
He saw the evolution of countless planets, witnessed the rise and fall of civilizations, and observed the rapid passing of numerous blue beams of light. Those "beams" seemed to be the descendants of the annulus civilization…
This member of the advanced civilization existed in a form that ordinary humans couldn’t possibly comprehend.
For the present Bai Yan, understanding all of this was still too difficult, and he felt an excruciating headache.
Even when faced with the Outer God, Bai Yan had never experienced such agony.
In this moment, he could sense that an unknown and terrifying power was deeply seeping into his soul.
Gradually, Bai Yan fell into a deep unconsciousness.
When he woke up again, what had just happened felt like a dream.
Bai Yan raised his hand, feeling a bit dazed, yet his heart remained calm and tranquil.
"Does the power bestowed by the civilization of the ring?"
No, it was not just power.

A few days later.
Inside the giant hive, in Chamber 37.
Chamber 37 had three old and worn-out streets. Most of the people living on these streets were workers from the chemical plant. They supplied the basic chemical materials for the cloning center.
On the second day after the downfall of the Almighty, the clone workers in charge of managing the chemical plant declared a complete halt to production. The aftermath of the Scarlet Moon’s attack had damaged the cloning center, and the Almighty had been killed. The clone overseer escaped that night and was never seen again.
Unemployment filled the residents of Chamber 37 with great unease.
Even more unsettling was the sudden change in leadership of Noy’s military and the Giant Hive. No longer was it the great leader "the Almighty," who could protect everyone. Instead, a mysterious and unpredictable figure took charge, plunging them into the disorienting realm of unemployment in the Babel Tower!
These frightful intruders had actually killed the mighty Almighty!
What else would they do?
No one knew.
People could only feel anxious and restless.
Just yesterday, on the 37th Nest Street, a new flower shop opened.
The girl who owned the flower shop was none other than the former leader of the rebellion, now a member of the Babel Tower, "Young psychic power wielder, Elene… Nian."
Because the situation was very unstable, no one came to her flower shop for shopping.
However, Nian continued to calmly tinker with various flowers in the shop, regardless of whether they could be sold or not. She accepted it peacefully.
After all, this wasn’t a real job, just a hobby.
The name of the shop was called "Rain".
The furnishings of ‘Rain’ were mainly in white and blue. At the entrance of the shop, there was a fluffy monster mascot… It was very ugly, but Nian liked it.
Just as Nian was playing with flowers, the shop door opened.
A father and son walked in from outside. The father was in his forties, while the son appeared to be around twenty years old.
Nian couldn’t find the words to say, so she calmly pressed the small robot next to her.
"Welcome! Welcome! Welcome!"
The little robot let out an incredibly exciting cheer that was enough to make someone jump in surprise!
The father and son were startled, and they both knew that the store owner couldn’t speak. It was written on the sign at the entrance, and it seemed like she didn’t want to receive guests either.
So, the two of them had to explore the situation of the flowers in the shop by themselves.
The middle-aged father stood in front of a big bundle of beautiful and vibrant roses… and picked out a single one from the side.
"How about giving your mom this rose? It’s her birthday tomorrow."
The son complained, "Actually, who still gives flowers these days? Dad, you’re so old-fashioned, it’s already a different era."
Father shook his head, his face filled with worry. "I know, but other gifts are more expensive. Really, your dad isn’t stingy, it’s just that your mom and I are currently unemployed. And we don’t know what the future holds for the Giant Hive. We must save money and be careful with our spending."
The son opened his mouth but remained silent.
He was in his early twenties and could naturally understand that his father’s worries were reasonable.
Father muttered, "These days, prices have soared. Everyone is stocking up on food. I heard that some hives have already descended into chaos, and there are even people daring enough to kill clone humans."
The son felt a chill run down his spine as he listened. Those detestable clone humans were the spokespersons of the Noy Military, a presence that ruled over everything within the hives.
"Killing clone humans! So incredibly audacious!" the text exclaimed.
However, the current Giant Hive was no longer the same as before, even the great Almighty had already perished…
The residents of the Giant Hive generally despised the clone humans who directly exploited and oppressed them, but most believed that the Almighty was a truly magnificent presence.
Thinking of the Almighty’s demise, the son’s eyes welled up with tears, his body trembling with overwhelming excitement.
"Dirty Babel Tower actually murdered Lord Almighty!"
"If it weren’t for Lord Almighty, the Tree City and the Ring City would definitely invade us and turn us into pitiful test subjects. The Giant Hive would face the same fate as the Air Alliance and the Eruo League in destruction!"
"Damn Babel Tower…"
The son’s emotions were a bit excited, but they were immediately silenced by the father.
"What nonsense are you talking about! Don’t speak casually outside!"
Father heard him cursing the new ruler Babel Tower, his face turned pale, and he instinctively glanced at the young girl who owned the flower shop.
Nian, as if nothing had happened, carefully trimmed a rare yet unvalued flower.
Father breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully, thankfully.
I might have been too nervous.
This sweet and lovely mute girl could never be a member of the mysterious and enigmatic Babel Tower!
After Father let go of his hand, he looked meaningfully at his son and said, "Actually, the Almighty might not be as good as you think… Regardless, it’s best not to continue saying these words."
The son let out a dissatisfied huff.
They stopped talking and quickly left the flower shop after buying a pink rose.
It wasn’t until this moment that Nian finally put down the scissors in her hand and started pondering everything she had just heard. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
The Savior of the Babel Tower.
What will this city look like in the future, what kind of future will we have… please show it to me.

The next day, the people in Nest 37 heard many new messages on the radio.
The technological level of the Giant Hive was divided. On one hand, the Noy Military company possessed various advanced technologies. On the other hand, ordinary people only had access to technology comparable to the 20th century on Earth.
The Babel Tower formally announced through the radio to the people of the entire city that they would take full control of the Giant Hive. They also declared that, for the time being, they would maintain the existing order by means of cloning people.
But various reforms were about to come one after another.
First, the prices of all the chambers were under control and not allowed to increase, at least maintaining a stable price for a month.
Next, they began addressing the issue of employment in various areas that were facing problems.
For example, the people who became unemployed due to the suspension of a chemical plant at Chamber 37 could temporarily receive financial assistance provided by the authorities until they were reassigned to new jobs.
And there was another immediate concern that needed to be addressed – the issue of public safety.
All those extraordinary individuals who took advantage of the chaos to commit robbery and start riots were instantly suppressed by Babel Tower within a day.
Regardless of what the future holds, at least on this day the inhabitants of the Giant Hive could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
At the same time,
A large number of people from outside gradually started settling in the Giant Hive, with Bai Yan’s arrangement.
Omnic, Digital Creatures, sinners…
