Chapter 4: The Goddess

The pink clouds in the sky dispersed as if frightened. The purple sky began to ripple, revealing bursts of flowing electric light. Accompanied by the shouting of silence for a long time - "Retribution, !!"

"Well, it's in good shape. Like an old farmer estimating the weather, Abitos squinted at the electric light flowing in the sky and nodded in satisfaction. He opened his mouth to interrupt Shen Xi's shout, "Spare some strength for yourself, and follow me to the altar to receive the Godhead first." If you accept the Godhead, you will be given the entry procedures. Let's get down to business first, and then let's talk about your situation slowly. ”

The altar is not far from the main hall, and it can be reached in about five or six minutes by foot. Along the way, Shen Xi looked around, but he didn't even see a single figure.

"Mentor, should you have other interns......" After all, it is a role that has been mixed with the society and knows the importance of it, Shen Xi changed his previous disobedience and honestly became an excellent student, "Should I still have some senior brothers and sisters or something?"

"They're very busy. Abitos was enthusiastic about answering questions, "Every intern god has his own mission. From opening up believers and spreading divine radiance, to stopping wars between believers and promoting the development of the Nether Realm, time is tight and tasks are heavy. ”

"Go to war?" Shen Xi asked, "Aren't we all your students living in peace with each other?"

"Of course the students live in peace with each other. Abitos stood on the edge of a large white disc and motioned for Shen Xi to stand up, "But the believers don't think so. They all felt that they should believe in a unique and true God, while others believed in nothing more than the embodiment of evil. If you take this idea as a starting point, you can only kill each other. ”

"Even if the true god you believe in comes forward to stop it?" Shen Xi stood up, curiously looked at the disc that emitted a soft white light at his feet, and asked, "If the true god comes forward, they should listen, right?"

"This topic started a little early. Abitos took out a golden scepter that was a head taller than himself from the air, and as he spoke to Shen Xi, he waved the scepter up and down, drawing intricate lines in mid-air. "I, and you, the many trainee gods, have the same three commandments that must be observed. The first is that God cannot communicate directly with people, except the Pope. That is, you cannot communicate directly with any mortal except you or the pope whom your followers consider. ”

"So, what are the second and third ones?" Shen Xi clearly felt that there seemed to be something more in his mind, but it was a little difficult to distinguish it specifically. He could only try to keep his attention focused on the conversation, and the feeling of having something in his head but not being able to discern it was simply painful.

"You must not interfere directly with the functioning of human society, or with the minds of men. Abitos replied solemnly, "This kind of behavior is difficult to define by the intern god himself until it is judged to be a violation. So be cautious. Many interns who have just started working have directly violated the Bible simply because of their own Bible provisions. Consequence...... I am very sorry for it. ”

"Who will judge? How sorry can I be?" Shen Xi's curiosity completely overwhelmed the discomfort in his mind. "Will they die?"

"I don't know who will decide, and I don't know if they're dead. Abitos replied. "They're gone. Disappeared without a trace. We call it 'obliteration'. ”

"It sounds painful. Are there any other mentors besides you?" Shen sighed, "I'm feeling a little uncomfortable...... Mentor, how long do I have to stand here?"

"Soon. As for your previous question, in addition to me, there are probably more than 30,000 mentors operating in different worlds, and the Temple of the Gods is a large group. Then the last commandment. Abitos continued to wave his scepter, the intricate lines almost completely obscuring his figure, "Once you lose the last believer, you lose your godhead." I need to remind you that the result of all three commandments is the same – once you break them, you will be erased. ”

Shen Xi's curiosity was satisfied, but he didn't have the time to be amazed by the number of Supreme Gods. As more and more "knowledge" poured into his mind, driven by the intricate lines, his body began to twitch and tremble—part of it. Strictly speaking, the remaining forty percent or so of mortal bodies were twitching.

"In addition to these three commandments, as a god, you have three duties. Abitos finally stopped waving the scepter, and the lines in front of him were stretching themselves, lengthening, and becoming more complex, "You must strive to make all intelligent beings believe in God, you must protect the believers from being polluted by the shadows, and you must use your will as the last barrier to defend the splendor and inviolability of the Temple of the Gods." ”

"Remember: preach, be vigilant, fight!" Abitos' voice faded away, and Shen Xi fell into a coma again.

"This man looks so strange!" "He's not a man, he's just as much a god as the Lord!" "He doesn't look like the Lord!" "All the other gods are different from the Lord!" "Which of you has seen my sword of judgment?"

The commotion surrounded Shen Xi, who was still unconscious. The sound of a slender and lively conversation around him reawakened his consciousness again. Although it stands to reason that Shen Xi's dizzy reaction has to be a few beats slower, after opening his eyes, Shen Xi was still taken aback. About a meter or more around him, dozens of small green things gathered. They are all women-looking, with different hair colors, no more than a dozen centimeters tall, and transparent wings on their backs. It's like the elves in fairy tales who hide under the flowers of the forest.

Merely...... There is no mention in fairy tales, and the elves are all chattering.

The sound of chirping almost deafed Shen Xi's ears. In fact, Shen Xi strongly suspected that his ears had probably been replaced with so-called "non-human parts". Otherwise he would have been deaf a long time ago.

"I'm so sorry!" a woman's panicked voice drowned out the chatter of the chattering elves around her, and the volume was very impressive, "I, I...... I'll let them go right away!"

A woman with green hair appeared in Shen Xi's sight.

Well, it's a big beauty. After such a thought popped up in Shen Xi's mind, he fainted decisively again.

"Lord, he looks so strange!" "It's not that he looks strange, the Lord says he's a male! So it's different from the Lord and us!" "What's the bear name? Is it delicious? Does it taste like an apple?" "Has any of you seen my Sword of Judgment?"

The chirping of the elves is actually quite hypnotic...... But if you've just recovered from a coma, and you hear this kind of scalp stiffening sound again, even if you're awake, you'll be sure to close your eyes and continue to pretend to be asleep - surrounded by a bunch of chattering dragonflies, and the stereo surround sound inquiries in all directions, left, right, front and back are simply terrifying.

"Alright, stop arguing!" the woman's voice rang out, and then Shen Xi heard the movement around her as if a beehive had been attacked—hundreds of chattering elves flapped their wings and flew away, "Then I'll go back and eat candy first!" "The Lord is angry!" "The Lord is not angry, the Lord is just a little loud!" "I want to eat an apple!" "Which of you has seen my Sword of Judgment?"

"Sorry, they're all nice kids, just a little ...... It's too lively. The woman's voice was still with some obvious panic.

"This kind of liveliness can be quite a headache at times. After confirming that the noisy little ones had flown away, Shen Xi sat up from the ground with difficulty. Covering his ears, he asked, "Excuse me, have you ever seen a guy named Abitos? not tall, probably a head shorter than me." ”

"Ah, it was the Mentor who placed you in my temple. "The woman had very beautiful long green hair, slightly curly, which fell on her chest. She wears a white dress with dark amber eyes. "My name is Panakaya. Like you, he is also a god of practice under the guidance of Abitos' mentor. Currently serving as the god of life and healing in the world of C173. ”

"That's the seniors. Shen Xi stood up, looked at the beautiful woman in front of him who was shorter than himself, and bowed deeply under the stagger, "Please take care of me." ”

"I also want to be able to take care of the lovely juniors!" a very charming-sounding female voice came from the other end of the temple, "The mentor is really eccentric, why should you give the juniors to you, Kaya?"

"Probably because I was able to alleviate Shen's discomfort after receiving the Godhead. And Sophia, you can only make him a little more uncomfortable. Panakaya was completely unflustered when talking to women, and her soft tone had a peculiar sense of playfulness. "After all, my priesthood allows me to help others, and Sophia, what about you...... Stabbing someone with a dagger is not a cure. ”

"It's not that I want to be the god of assassins!" Sophia, dressed in black, emerged from the shadows of the temple's greenery, clasped her hands on her chest and complained, "I thought I could at least be a god of drama or something, sitting in front of a beautiful white desk, and using a foot-long quill to guide believers in creation!"

"Hahaha, it's up to you?" Panakaya smiled and bent over, "You gave Henry the novel you wrote last time, right?"

"How do I know he's going to put my work in that kind of place!" Sophia lost her confidence when she mentioned the previous novel, but she still grumbled a little angrily, "Isn't it just a little divine power leakage......

"Then your masterpiece detonated Henry's inkwell. Panakaya wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her fingers. "The ink spilled on the temple can't be removed at all, and Henry has to put his own work on the wall to cover it up now!
