Chapter 8 Calls

Shen Xi was actually a little embarrassed.

He doesn't have a trace of superfluous divine power to use to perform miracles, and the group of shadow dancers who are now besieged under the Thunder Cliff are his only remaining believers, if there is a major loss in the number of believers, not only will it be more difficult to accumulate divine power, but it is still doubtful whether his godhead can be kept.

The birth of the Divine Personality of Shen Xi seemed to be a complete accident. After Grand Duke Samuel Grant formed the Shadow Dancer, in order to attract more members to join, His Excellency made up a non-existent divine "breath" from village legends and market legends. He then directly considers himself God's spokesman on earth. And use his status as the Grand Duke to perform "miracles" for the new members.

In fact, the members of the Shadow Dancers are fundamentally different from the members of the other underground chambers of commerce. Most of them are not heinous criminals or treacherous and cunning liars. Most of the Shadow Dancers are farmers who have been forced out of their land because they can't afford to pay taxes due to famine, as well as small craftsmen who have been squeezed out of their living space by large business alliances.

Naturally, the wishes that such members make when they pray are not great visions. Many people just want their children to be educated, or to be able to get a tax-free place granted by His Excellency the Grand Duke. To put it bluntly, this is the habit of believers in Noah's world—that God can help them solve their problems. Therefore, in order to make it easier for God to help you solve the problem, it is better to make your wish clear—it would be better if you could add your name, address, and contact information after your wish.

As the priest who presided over the prayer meeting, Grand Duke Samuel could easily learn the wishes of the faithful at the prayer meeting. And most of these wishes can be fulfilled through one's own status as a Grand Duke. Subsequently, the believers who wished to come true were ecstatic, believing that it was a miracle given by the great "breath". As a result, believers became more convinced and began to preach on their own initiative.

The Shadow Dancers expanded rapidly, and in less than two years, the Shadow Dancers had grown into the largest underground chamber of commerce in the entire Fort Grant area.

The Underground Chamber of Commerce is not mainly engaged in ordinary goods, and from the perspective of the structure of its operation, the underground Chamber of Commerce is more like a joint organization composed of intelligence agencies, slave traders, gang members, casino owners and old bustard prostitutes. In the bandits and caravans employed and controlled by the Underground Chamber of Commerce, members of the same Chamber of Commerce will cooperate with each other. For example, relying on bustards and prostitutes to attract unruly men into the sphere of influence, the casino owner set up a field to squeeze the last copper plate on them, and then the gang members came out to give them usury, if the usury could not be repaid in time, then the intelligence agencies would be dispatched to obtain the debtor's property and personal intelligence information through various means and channels, and after cooperating with the gang to seize and confiscate the property, then hand over the debtor and his family to the slave traders to deal with, the beautiful women were given to the bustard, and the rest were sold as slaves to other regions. This is a complete and mature industrial chain.

While the industrial chain is running, it has attracted more people to join and began to believe in "information". Before Viscount Prescott decided to make a move on the Shadow Dancer, the entire Shadow Dancer's direct family numbered more than eight thousand. The number of "practitioners" who depend on this industrial chain for survival is as high as 30,000.

Among the many followers of the Night Dancer, the regular prayers held by Grand Duke Samuel eventually gave birth to an ownerless Godhead.

As the supreme god, let alone a shadow dancer, even the entire Sibrus Empire, it is not worth mentioning to Abitos.

But the Godhead is something that those ants can't compare to at all.

From the establishment of the Temple of the Gods to the present, in the countless worlds controlled by the Temple of the Gods, the Godhead has always been created and divided by the supreme god of that world himself, without exception. And no normal supreme god would create a priesthood to be the protector of the so-called "criminals, thugs and fraudsters". You must know that this kind of priesthood similar to the god of industry is very unstable, and generally such duties will be taken by other intern gods. For example, in the world of C-173, the protector of the physician and the apothecary was taken by Panakaya.

However, under the guidance of Archduke Samuel, a group of intelligent beings, through prayer and preaching, actually created a blank Godhead. This shocked Abitos, and could even say angry. In the temple system, only the supreme god of the world is qualified to select intelligent beings with potential for transformation and inherit the godhead. If sapient beings found a way to make godheads stably, the results would be devastating for the entire world - mortals could not carry godheads, and once they came into contact with godheads, they would be consumed by divine flames and burned to ashes. And the divine power that the Godhead itself can produce will be continuously converted into fuel for the Divine Flame when the Divine Flame burns. As a result, the entire planet and even the entire galaxy will be burned by the Divine Flame. Once the method of making the Godhead is mastered by mortals, the consequences are unimaginable.

Fortunately, the place where the Godhead was born was naturally confined to the temple of Abitos. Although this was a small trick of the supreme god to be lazy, at this moment, it saved the entire Noah world.

In order to place this godhead, Abitos found a small blue and green planet in the world of C-173, and found a young man named Shen Xi on it.

Now the young man is struggling with how to keep his remaining believers.

Due to the existence of the precepts, Shen Xi naturally couldn't appear openly in front of the army that surrounded Thunder Cliff. This is a direct interference with the functioning of human society. If Shen Xi did this, according to Abitos' explanation, he would simply disappear.

So what about standing by and watching?

No, it doesn't.

Standing by means that one's followers will be powerless in the face of the army. Once the final decisive moment comes, not only will their own believers be slaughtered, but those who survive will never believe in them again. If you lose all your followers, you will lose the godhead you have just acquired.

Although he didn't know what would happen to the godhead after losing all his followers, Shen Xi was sure that he would never fall into this kind of field. Abitos will run to Earth to choose himself, and it must not be just because there is no one to carry the extra godhead. After all, there are countless universes in a world, and it is impossible for one person to carry the Godhead. Shen Xi has not been arrogant to this extent.

You are useful, but you are by no means irreplaceable. This is Shen Xi's personal positioning judgment for himself. He must not take any risks, especially when it comes to the Godhead. In case for some reason, he loses his usefulness in front of his mentor, and it is still a trivial matter for him to be erased - his grandmother has just recovered and is now living a life of having both children - once his grandmother's life is affected, this is a real big thing for Shen Xi.

You must first help the Shadow Dancer deal with the troubles in front of you.

"You're Fenrir?" said Fenrir, the manager, looking up to the sky and sighing with tears in his eyes. But just as he wanted to stabilize his mind, collect his emotions, and continue to direct the Shadow Dancers to prepare for battle, he felt his body freeze. A majestic voice sounded from the bottom of his heart. As the voice sounded, Fenrir felt darkness in front of him. Everything was no longer in its original shape, and a huge cluster of light appeared in the very center of the field of vision. The light cluster is dark red in color and irregular in shape, surrounded by purple electric light.

"I am Fenrir. Fenriel suddenly understood what he was up against, "May the Shadow Elder rest in peace under your watchful eye. O Lord, you have finally answered our prayers!"

Naturally, the Shadow Elder was talking about the dead Grand Duke Samuel. Of course, Shen Xi couldn't tell this old man who had already identified himself as the pope: your founder was the father of the viscount who was hunting you down, and he was also an archduke. But because she is pretending to be a god, she has been arrested by my colleagues, and she will also have to serve more than 13,000 years in prison or something like that—that's not to solve the current problems of believers—it's a problem of turning believers into themselves.

He could only continue to follow the old man's meaning, "I have seen your loyalty and your persistence. You have done well and are faithful to God, and I will reward them. Those who are unfaithful and who slander me will be spurned by all men. ”

"O Great Breath, our allegiance is yours forever, but your servants need to be saved. After all, Fenrir is a true Noah, and before he could say a few more words to his own god, he directly began to talk to the god about the conditions, "We have been besieged by that damn usurper Prescott for two weeks, and the food and water are almost all consumed. If it goes on like this, you don't even need him to bring troops to attack, and in a few days, your followers will be starved to death!"

Shen Xi originally planned to learn the language style of Comrade Liu Ban, a small piece of policeman, and say some high-sounding words. Who knew that this old man began to cry directly. I was choked up for a while.

"Before the sun rises, after the moon sets. You walk along the right side of the cliff and stop when you see a plane tree that needs to be hugged by twenty people, and someone will approach you under the tree. Shen Xi simply didn't bother to bend around anymore, and directly said the plan. "Remember, you go alone. ”

"Obey the oracle!" Fenrir certainly understood what it meant for God to communicate directly with him. In this way, not only will the Shadow Dancer be able to survive, but he will also be able to become a new Elder and Priest himself. Not only will they survive, but they will have a bright future.

"Then, the next step is to cancel the identification of this old man. Shen Xi muttered, followed Panakaya's guidance, stretched out his finger in the ball of light, and successfully removed Fenrir from the throne of the pope. Then I searched for a long time in the list of options for choosing divine punishment, and chose not to punish it.

The next person to call was Viscount Prescott.
