As an excellent undercover agent, Li Yili knows that to retire safely, you have to remember one thing: play it safe! Make sure that even if their plans are exposed, those people won't suspect he's a mole. So, Chief, trust me. Don't move in just yet. I'm about to put on a show!
Holding a ritual to summon an evil god in a remote town? Sure! Boss, let me tell you: there's nothing wrong with skimming a little off the supplies. In a small place like ours, no one's going to notice if we smuggle just a tiny bit.
Building a strange city in the depths of the sea? Who says it can't be done? Boss, have you ever heard of carving a mark on a moving boat to find a sword? Do you know math? Can't make the numbers work? Don't worry, take out a loan from a loan shark! Invest! Pour everything into this project! It'll definitely work!
Deceiving the whole world with an act and faking a god? Got it. I'll trade your old musket for a cannon. Don't worry, it won't kill anyone. If we don't make the act convincing, no one will believe it!
No one will ever notice that I'm an undercover agent.
"He speaks of knowledge from an unknown world! This ritual to summon a god, which was never expected to succeed, was actually completed on such an astonishing scale!"
"I've never seen such a terrifying mathematical formula, and I never imagined we could build that ominous city, so dreadful it strikes fear into the heart!"
"I have seen a true god."
It's a good book, but it's a shame that it had a bad ending. The Valkyrie disappeared without a trace, Bishop Azazel also vanished without a trace, the Horn of Galar was mentioned occasionally, but only in a few lines of the plot, and the reason why only the protagonist could see the Morning Star was never explained. It's such a shame to waste such a great setting and world-building. If only the author had the time to rewrite it or add some side stories to expand the plot.
What is this book about? Is it good?
