  Every God had their clergy job and territory. The former was the production of the power of the world’s origin, and the latter derived from the mastering of power by the Gods themselves. To get their clergy post, they needed to first understand and master the corresponding power and enhance their mastering of power to the level that was sufficient to reach the origins of the world. On that basis, they would accept the rights and the obligation to produce, then receive the world’s recognition. Mastering such power from the level of the origins produced clergy posts from there onwards.

  From the angle of the individual, enhancing power to a territorial level was sufficient. For instance, Sui Xiong mastered a variety of powers that reached territorial level. During the battle with many Gods, these powers could be put to play easily and he was not worried that he would be restrained. From the angel of a God’s powers and functions, only by enhancing one’s power to the level of clergy post would he be able to produce powers and functions that derive from it. Then, through the channel of religion, they could grant their believers special powers.

  Sui Xiong, for example, once granted his believer the power of ice. He did it personally then, transferred the power bit by bit. If he were to enhance his “ice” level from territorial level to clearly post level, every one of his believers could get the power of ice through prayer. If they were pious enough, they would be able to form a strong channel of religion.

  Once the clergy post of God was confirmed, the believers could get the power through prayers on a wide scale. As they got the power, they naturally had to put it to use. In the process, trouble always came.

  Morani’s clergy post involved mining, and He was the only God that possessed such a clergy post in the entire orc God system. So many orcs and half-orcs worshiped him. Mining required deep underground mining of mineral veins. In the process, conflict with the magic beast underground was inevitable. Although an orc’s night vision was outstanding, working and discovering underground while depending on their night vision was insufficient. So, they were disadvantaged most of the time.

  These mining workers were mostly commoners. Within future that they could foresee, it would be impossible for them to possess power like adventurers. So, it had always been Morani’s headache about how to give them proper training so that they could escape easily when they were in danger underground.

  He once brought up his concern with the other Gods within the orc God system, but the other orc Gods did not share the same concern.

  “What’s wrong with people dying? Those bastard could give birth well.”

  “Yeah, what mining doesn’t cost lives?”

  “Morani you think too much, we are not babysitters!”

  The common standpoint of the orc God system was evil. They looked down on life while emphasising power. They viewed barbary and ferocity as symbols of bravery, and didn’t bother about the death or injury of their believers. On the other hand, Morani, and the desolation God system under his command, were a bunch of Gods from neutral and kind camps. They practiced an opposite attitude of respecting lives. The contradiction of two concepts made Morani’s concern seem stupid and weak to the various orc Gods.

  If the “Steel Lion” weren’t really good at fighting, almost no one from the various orc Gods could win against him. They were even afraid that they would be laughed at!

  Morani was utterly disappointed in his comrades. He was thinking about how to solve the problems and he finally figured out a way.

  \r \r \r

  He could gather the believers to go for an adventure at the underground maze in Void Mask’s theme park, to get experience fighting against underground magic beasts under safe conditions. Although the experience was incomplete, it would be better than remaining completely ignorant!

  But, there was another problem to be solved.

  “My believers are normally not wealthy. Their training fees…… I will figure out a way.” Thinking about their financials, the powerful main God of desolation God system blushed a little too. “In a few days, I will go to the outer dimension to look and see if I can find any gold.”

  “It’s stupid to talk about money!” Sui Xiong shook his head and laughed, “When you helped me back then, did we talk about money?”

  “We don’t have to talk about money, but the believers don’t have that option,” Morani said. “You have to maintain your theme park at the very least, right? The maintenance fees, salary, transportation fees that ensure safety of usage, all of these need money too.”

  Sui Xiong was at loss for words. He thought about it carefully and it seemed to be this way.

  No wonder when business was bad, Snow was always so grumpy……

  Hence, it was almost decided then. Morani used the original body of various desolation Gods and departed to the outer dimension to look for wealth, while their clones departed in with their believers to Void Mask’s theme park in batches, to accept their underground training adventures.

  Luckily Sui Xiong spared no expense in building a huge transportation array. Various Gods could just get transportation portal passwords from him and let him open up a corresponding jurisdiction, so they could activate the transportation from any place in the main dimension to send their believers to the theme park.

  As for after the training, they could also borrow the transportation portal to arrive at each kingdom and return to their mining areas.

  The process naturally required huge expenses; mainly expending a massive amount of magic power. But to Gods, magic power wasn’t a problem at all.

  After laying down all the terms, Sui Xiong and Morani travelled together and asked the enthusiastic knight-errant about the management of believers.

  Believer management was a compulsory course for various Gods; it was also a problem that Sui Xiong had a headache about all the while. He thought that if the believers believed in him and prayed to him devoutly for protection, he should bless them within the range of his strength. But that meant that he would be bonded by the believers. When he had conflict with his enemies in the future, he would be restrained. For example, the black dragon that had something wrong with its head; if it weren’t for the God of Justice, he wouldn’t have known how to deal with possible attacks by that bastard.

  The God of Justice wasn’t bothered much about that problem, as He didn’t need believers. He thought justice was temporary, but not eternal. Under situations where people had to make a choice, they would burst out with justice. But most of the time, people didn’t need justice. So His teaching was, “when people need justice and are willing to sacrifice for justice, I will support them and give them the power to uphold it.”

  If it wasn’t such a situation, what would happen? His clone would be nearby, and he would appear and meddle. If he couldn’t, then he would forget it.

  “Although I am the God of Justice, I would never be constrained by moral practice,” he said when Sui Xiong came to him to ask for advice. “The Commoner’s benefits should be protected, and my benefits should be protected too. This is justice! If to I have to sacrifice my benefit to protect a commoner’s, what sort of justice is that?”

  In simple terms, his attitude was explained as “merrily meet and merrily part ways,” but he did not go after long term belief, or maintain believers and a church organisation.

  That’s why He could run wild in the world. No one could do anything to Him.

  “How about your Holy Kingdom? How do you settle the holy spirit?” Sui Xiong asked.

  The God of Justice smiled and kept quiet, and Sui Xiong quickly realized that he asked a question that he should not have, and apologised.

  That was the God of Justice’s biggest secret; also something his opposing Gods couldn’t understand. How could he expose it?

  In short, Sui Xiong couldn’t learn anything about believer management from the God of Justice. The other few Gods that he was close with weren’t teachers either.

  Although the God of Redemption was experienced, he was a cunning fox. Through the long years, He had never have a large amount of believers, and He had never had any conflict with other Gods, so he had never considered such questions.

  The Goddess of Ocean…… was a negative example. Even Her descendant, Mermaid Princess, didn’t know how to manage their believers. She passed down everything on hand to various semi Gods, and the few holy spirits that survived in the Holy Kingdom under her command. As for how they did…… He-he, it was nothing but the chant.

  You settle, and I am carefree.

  Sui Xiong intentionally imitated Him, but there were not many great figures among his underlings. Only one who was fully rounded, and he was deacon of the church but working as a ruler at someone else’s.

  It wasn’t the first time Leon displayed his will to work at the theme park, but Sui Xiong couldn’t accept. Miss Carisa Riley had prayed many times to various Gods, to pray for whichever God to protect her love. As a God that Riley believe in, Sui Xiong didn’t receive her prayers once only.

  Although he thought that Leon didn’t seem to be interested in pretty girls, thinking carefully, Leon was already over thirty years old. If he were to be put on earth, he would be categorised under golden bachelor, and he would be at an age to consider marriage and careers. A girl with good requirements that went after him would be hard to come by. As Sui Xiong was his brother, how could he break his blessing?

  So not only he did he not agree for Leon to come to the theme park, he once gave a bottle of magical medicine to to help Carisa maintain her permanent youthfulness so she could continue to romance Leon in the long run.

  “If one year can’t cut it, then make it ten, ten years can’t, then make it 100…… All in all, don’t worry. I won’t let you die of old age before that silly boy.” In the dream of the beautiful city owner, the huge green jellyfish patted his chest and guaranteed it. “I can’t help much with love, but I can guarantee the logistics!”

  Unconsciously, he got a believer who was quite loyal and reliable.

  Morani herd him nagging and strayed away from the point; his face was filled with smile.

  The new friend that he made was normally quite lonely. Him being able to find someone to chat with so occasionally made him so happy. He must have sat at the altar alone most of the time, and had a thick distance between Him and his believers.

  The huge difference between God and commoners gave every God that wanted to be close with their believers a headache. Why would various Gods form a God system? Among various reasons, there was of course the intention to form an allegiance to help each other. But actually, it was a bunch of loners that came together to find warmth.

  “Oscar, are you interested in joining the desolation God system?” During lunch break, He asked curiously, “I unintentionally discipline and control whoever. Our God system mainly makes it convenient for people to chat and communicate only.

  “Look at yourself; I think you need some friends that you can always chat and communicate with.”
