The result of the experiment was obvious. Worshiping himself was a success, but worshiping his statue was useless. This could only mean one thing: worshiping statues was useless. But why was it useless?
Li Huailin had obtained part of the experience from the Celestial race. There was no instruction manual for this thing. If it wasn't for reverse engineering, how could he know that the energy required for this thing was faith? Through this, Li Huailin discovered that this method was indeed feasible. So why couldn't he worship the statue? Obviously, the Celestial race could worship the statue.
Not knowing the specific reason, Li Huailin felt a headache coming on. After thinking about it, Li Huailin did not know how long it would take to figure out this matter, and it was obviously a little too late now, so he put it aside for the time being. Li Huailin wanted to try to increase his Energy Points based on his current situation.
First of all, because of his bug, everything was reversed. Previously, when he worshiped something, his energy would be deducted. This was not a problem, but how could he increase his energy? Thinking about it the other way around, he could only increase his energy by doing things that should have been deducted. The current energy points were faith points. Therefore, in this case, Li Huailin should have to do something disrespectful to God in order to increase his energy points, right? So what was disrespectful to God?
Li Huailin's first reaction was to attack the god. What could be more direct than attacking the god he worshiped? No matter how he looked at it, it would still be deducted faith. Therefore, the simplest and most direct way now was to let others do it to him.
Thinking of this, Li Huailin said to Geert, "Come, Geert, let's do something else."
"Your Majesty, what else do you want?" Geert was holding his waist and stretching. Yes, his lower back pain was acting up. Currently, he couldn't even stand straight.
"Stab me," Li Huailin said.
"Huh?" Geert was stunned for five seconds. "Your Majesty, what did you say?"
"I said, stab me and try," Li Huailin repeated.
"Eh? Your Majesty, you … you … "Geert really didn't know what to say. What was going on? Had you ever seen an emperor order his servants to stab him? Although Li Huailin's orders had always been inexplicable, it wasn't to this extent. What was the situation now?
"Hey hey, I already said that this is an experiment, okay?" Li Huailin said, "Do you really think you can stab me to death with your small arms and legs?"
"Your Majesty, this isn't a matter of whether I can stab you to death or not. This … this is …" Of course, Geert knew that he couldn't stab Li Huailin to death, but the problem was, who would do such a thing? From Geert's point of view, everything seemed wrong. However, he didn't know how to explain this situation to Li Huailin. It was like someone asking you to explain why you should be filial to your parents. You knew that it was the right thing to do, but how could you explain it to him?
"Why is it so troublesome? Can't you just cooperate with me for an experiment?" Li Huailin held his forehead. "Come, Bruno. Stab me."
"Eh … Your Majesty, I don't think that's a good idea." This time, even Bruno, who had always been obedient, hesitated. No matter how dumb he was, he knew that stabbing his boss was wrong.
"I told you it's an experiment, you bastard!" Li Huailin said. "Hurry up. You can't expect me to beg you to stab me, right?"
Bruno looked at Geert beside him. Although he didn't speak, his eyes were asking Geert what he should do. However, the problem was that Geert didn't know what to do. Li Huailin didn't know what to do, and there was nothing he could do. After calming down a little, Geert thought about it and finally decided to listen to Li Huailin. After all, it was Li Huailin who said it himself, and it was an order, so he had to listen to it. Secondly, since they were the ones who stabbed Li Huailin, of course, they would be merciful. Besides, Li Huailin was strong, and they were now in the Duke's Mansion. It wasn't a dangerous area, and there were all kinds of priests, doctors, and pharmacists in the mansion. It wouldn't be easy for someone to die.
Thinking of this, Geert quietly nodded at Bruno and gestured for him to be gentle. Bruno understood and nodded in agreement.
"Hurry up." Li Huailin was a little impatient after waiting for so long and said immediately.
"Oh, Your Majesty." Bruno replied and looked around. Coincidentally, there were the table knives that the chef prepared for Li Huailin. It was too difficult to stab someone to death with them. Bruno picked one up and asked Li Huailin, "Your Majesty, can I use this?"
"Just hit him a little. I'll check the situation." Of course, Li Huailin didn't care what the other party did. Even if he used his full strength, he still had Millet's substitute effect. It was impossible to kill him instantly. Besides, so what if he was killed instantly? He wasn't afraid of death.
Bruno picked up a small table knife, walked to Li Huailin's side, and looked around. He looked left and right. Truth be told, he usually aimed for the vital parts of his enemies. Of course, he couldn't do that now. He looked left and right to see which part looked sturdier.
"Just stab it here," Li Huailin said as he stretched out his right hand.
"Oh, yes, Your Majesty." Bruno nodded. After thinking about it, he couldn't stab Li Huailin to death with his hand. Bruno took a deep breath and slowly swung the knife at Li Huailin's hand. Of course, he had calculated the distance of the knife. At most, he would just scratch Li Huailin a little. It was impossible for him to stab him directly.
In the end, something surprising happened. Just as Bruno's knife was about to reach Li Huailin's body, a golden light flashed between him and Li Huailin. This light seemed to have materialized and attacked Bruno.
Bruno, of course, was completely unprepared. At this time, he was still worried that he would hurt Li Huailin. In the next second, he was hit by the golden light and flew to the right.
"Boom!" Bruno smashed through the wall next to him. Amidst the screams of a bunch of people, he smashed through a few rows of tables and chairs in the office next to him. It was a complete mess.
"Huh?" Of course, Li Huailin didn't expect this to happen. What's with this golden light? I don't think I have this skill. Thinking that it might have something to do with the temple, Li Huailin immediately teleported to the temple to check on the situation. Sure enough, his energy points had changed, and just as he expected, it had increased. What Li Huailin didn't expect was that the increase seemed to be a lot.
"492 points?" Li Huailin looked at the current displayed number in surprise. Yes, he didn't expect his energy points to be displayed at 492 points. This really surprised him. His previous score was obviously -8, which meant that his energy points had increased by 500 points. This was really a little beyond his expectations. It was a little too much.
However, after thinking about it for a while, Li Huailin felt that it was not incomprehensible. After all, the current situation was that one of his believers had completely betrayed him and even attacked him. According to the normal procedure, this kind of situation was probably rare. If it really happened, it could only mean that he didn't have enough control over his believers. It didn't seem to be a problem to deduct so much.
However, seeing the increase in the number, Li Huailin suddenly thought of something. It was obvious that the method of calculating energy points and favorability was a little detailed. It wasn't easy to increase the energy points, but the penalty for deducting it was very high. For example, if a believer sacrificed for half a day, he would only get a few points. But if he betrayed you, the penalty would be a few hundred points. This was, of course, very difficult for others. It would probably take time to accumulate points, but the problem was that it was different for Li Huailin. His bug-like physique was still relatively advantageous in this aspect.
"It seems that I can earn some points now." Li Huailin thought for a while and said. Originally, he thought that it was definitely not enough time, but now it seemed that there might be some results. Hence, Li Huailin decided to earn some points first. And his current goal was 50,000 points. After all, there were a total of two options in this temple. One was to upgrade the main temple with 50,000 points, and the other was to build a side temple with 150,000 points. Of course, he had to achieve the simplest goal first.
Of course, he still had to hurry. Li Huailin immediately teleported back to his room. However, as soon as he returned, Li Huailin found that it was already a mess. The first thing Li Huailin saw was a large group of guards. Not only that, but Warlock Saint Vozmont, who had just left, also appeared beside Li Huailin.
"Your Majesty! Are you okay? "Vozmont shouted when he saw Li Huailin appear.
"What the hell? Who sent you here? "Li Huailin said immediately.
"Your Majesty, is this place under attack?" the guard next to him asked hurriedly.
Li Huailin immediately understood. After all, Bruno had caused such a huge commotion just now. It would be strange if his guards did not react when they heard the situation. Of course, Li Huailin had no use for them at the moment. He immediately said, "It's nothing. I was doing some experiments here, and there was a slight problem. It's not an attack. By the way, how is Bruno? "
"General Bruno?" The guard was stunned. "Is he here too?"
