Abel stepped out of the Dark World and began to think about how to use his loot this time.
It was not easy to explain the source of the super teleportation circle. Although he could use the circle spirit to set it up with puppets, it was impossible to use it without connecting to the teleportation network.
Also, the Wizard Union had to approve it before connecting to the teleportation network. The Wizard Union valued super teleportation circles a lot, so it was very difficult for them to own one.
Therefore, the materials for this super teleportation circle could not be used in a short period of time. He would have to wait for the right opportunity.
As for the Lance spirit, he was going to bring it back to the Holy Continent. The Central Continent was not his base, and he didn't need such a powerful spirit.
At that moment, he thought about the tens of thousands of novice sacred knight souls and the 5000 official sacred knight souls in his crystal angel statue. He began to hesitate.
If he placed the souls of those Knight souls in his crystal angel statue, they could provide him with an endless supply of faith.
However, he wanted to increase the number of sacred knights under his command in the Nation of God. He only had 2000 Knights under his command in the Nation of God.
Although the faith provided by these sacred Knight souls was not as much as the sacred Knight souls, it was much purer.
Most importantly, he wanted more information from the Nation of God, so he needed more sacred Knight souls under his command in the Nation of God.
With Izual, it was much easier for him to steal the souls of those sacred Knights. He didn't need to transform into a giant dragon to absorb the soul of a Knight of the Dead.
"First, I'll bless all the sacred Knight souls. Since I need them anyway, I'll find a chance to go to the front line and ambush some knights. As long as I don't let the Nation of God know where I am, I'll make sure to hide myself!" Abel made up his mind.
Of course, he would not do this work himself. After all, he was not a god, and he could not divide his attention to carry out more than 15,000 god blessings.
He handed over this task to the Druil soul that was more relaxed when it came to repetitive work. Once again, he chose the prayer that required him to become a Holy Knight among the prayers sent by the Nation of God. He responded through the channel of faith and bestowed the soul of a Holy Knight to the God.
This job was very boring. Fortunately, Abel did not need to participate in it. He sat on the platform of the steel castle, drinking fruit juice while waiting for the progress.
For the next ten days, he rested on the platform of the iron castle during the day and entered the Dark World to clean up the hell creatures outside the Pandemonium Fort at night.
The only difference was that in the Nation of God, he already had 17,000 low-level Knight believers.
These 17,000 low-level Holy Knights were different from ordinary believers who stole prayers. Even if these 17,000 low-level Holy Knights died, their souls would return to the crystal angelic statue.
The only difference was that the soul of a Knight returned to the crystal angelic statue after death. Their Holy Knight rank would remain the same as when the knight died.
Still, Abel had released nearly 10,000 apprentice Holy Knights. As long as these apprentice Holy Knights trained in the Nation of God and became rank 6 or above Holy Knights, even if they died again, Abel would still earn quite a lot.
On top of that, the 17,000 low-level Holy Knights formed an intelligence network through the prayers, so he could better understand the situation of the Nation of God.
Of course, the most important thing was the soul of a Mad Knight. He wouldn't give it to God. He didn't want to waste this kind of resource. He wouldn't use a Mad Knight's soul before he knew what it could do.
He looked at the 100 books of inheritance inside the crystal angel statue. Since the divine armor did not have the ability to create books of inheritance, the importance of these books of inheritance became even more important.
He made a request to the Druil soul to find a believer who had the highest level of faith and wanted to become a preacher.
Through the prayers of the Holy Knight, he knew that there were many preachers in the Nation of God. Basically, there was one in every region.
However, the Nation of God still lacked preachers. Whether it was the guardian wings, the demon from beyond, or the daily long-distance teleportation missions, they all required a large amount of faith. This made the entire Nation of God a faith manufacturing machine.
In order to strengthen faith, the Nation of God needed a large number of preachers to spread faith and host all kinds of faith ceremonies.
However, it was very difficult to increase the number of preachers. The lifespan of a preacher was the same as that of a normal person, which made them extremely rare.
According to the propaganda of the Nation of God, being a preacher was more honorable than being a Holy Knight. It was the most sacred profession in the Nation of God because it represented the most devout faith. It was recognized by God and managed by God.
Therefore, it didn't take long for Abel to find the answer to the Druil soul's request.
A young man without the talent of a Holy Knight was chosen. This young man had a much higher level of faith than a normal believer. Although he couldn't become a Holy Knight, it didn't affect his yearning for God. He was determined to become a glorious preacher.
Abel connected to this young man through the channel of faith. His name was Ackerman, and he was praying.
Ackerman's prayers were different from those of ordinary believers. He was reciting a long prayer from a very complicated holy book. Ordinary believers might not even be able to read the holy book in their hands, but Ackerman was reciting a long section of it.
He had a strong desire to become a preacher. Abel noticed this when he connected to him.
"My believer, I have received your faith. In the name of God, I bestow upon you the preacher of God. You will be God's herder in the mortal world!" When Abel gave the book of faith to Ackerman's believer through the channel of faith, the crystal angel statue automatically transmitted a passage of divine language to Ackerman's believer.
Ackerman's face was filled with excitement. He felt countless messages coming from the void into his mind. The parts of the holy book that he didn't understand were now answered by these messages.
At the same time, holy power surged from his body. This holy power was not the holy power of a paladin. Its only function was to prove that Ackerman had received the blessings of the gods and become a clergyman.
"My lord, I am willing to be your servant and serve you for the rest of my life!" He knelt on the ground and said with determination.
After saying this, he stood up and walked out of the house, heading towards the nearest temple.
Along the way, the presence of a preacher made everyone bow to him. Even the Holy Knight on the road did the same.
As the preacher of God, he didn't need to bow back. All he needed to do was smile.
Abel had been paying attention to Ackerman through the channel of faith. This was Abel's first preacher. Whether Ackerman could be recognized by the temple would directly affect whether he would be able to receive more preachers in the future.
Preachers were very important. Once preacher Ackerman was recognized by the temple, he would be assigned a mission area to preach to all the believers in the mission area.
Preacher Ackerman was getting closer and closer to the temple, and Abel began to feel nervous. This was a blatant act of stealing from the Nation of God.
Of course, since Abel was doing this through the channel of faith, he wasn't afraid of being discovered by the Nation of God. Even if he was discovered, the Nation of God couldn't do anything to him. As long as they didn't send out a legendary Holy Knight, he wasn't afraid of the Nation of God. Even if he couldn't beat them, he could still escape.
Ackerman was in a large city. The temple was in the center of the city. There were 18 temples like this in the Nation of God, which corresponded to the 18 large cities of the Nation of God.
Through Ackerman's eyes, Abel saw the temple. It was very majestic. It was like looking at a mountain.
The temple constantly released a strange aura, causing the entire city to sink into this strange aura. This strange aura was harmless to the human body, but it could make believers more focused in their prayers, allowing non-believers to quickly become believers.
Ackerman slowly walked up the steps of the temple. He was getting closer and closer to the temple gate.
Abel could feel the dense sense of holiness coming from the temple.
"Ackerman, welcome as a preacher, a shepherd of the gods!" The temple elder welcomed Ackerman into the side hall of the temple.
"The prestigious elder, what should I do to serve my Lord?" Ackerman bowed with a sincere face.
"Ackerman, you need to fully master the priesthood inheritance you have received, but this process will take about ten years. The temple cannot afford to wait for ten years. You need to go to the Missionary District to serve our master while you learn!" The temple elder said in a deep voice.
Although this temple was one of the eighteen temples of the Nation of God, there weren't that many preachers working here. There were only five of them.
The entire preacher system was running at full capacity. Even a new preacher like Ackerman wouldn't have any free time.
"The prestigious elder, I will follow your orders!" Ackerman felt like he was willing to do anything to serve his Lord.
Abel didn't bother him at all during this process. He was like a true priest of the demon from beyond, even if he thought so himself.
"You can go to Wether town. The preachers there have returned to our Lord's embrace. They have been waiting for a new preacher!" The elder thought for a moment and said.
He then handed an identity card to Ackerman and said, "This identity card can open the altar in Wether town!"
"Yes, prestigious elder!" Preacher Ackerman bowed as he received the identity card.
The whole process was simple. Preacher Ackerman was recognized by the temple and became a member of the preachers. At the same time, he also had a mission area.
Going to Wether town was easy. It was all thanks to the teleportation circle network in the Nation of God.
As soon as Ackerman came out of the teleportation circle, he saw a holy stone building in the center of the town. It was not a temple, but it was a mission district.
A mission district was similar to a temple. The only difference was that the temple itself was a huge faith amplifier. It could affect a huge area. The altar in the mission district was a smaller version of the temple. It could only affect a small area.
Over the past thousands of years, the Nation of God had developed its own unique way of spreading faith. The temple and the missionary sites combined allowed the Nation of God to rely on the least amount of clergy to influence more believers.
Ackerman walked into the mission district. It was a complete building. There was a large church that could accommodate all the believers in the town. There was also a holy room with an altar. It was the most important place in the entire mission district.
Once the altar was activated, the formation within it could affect the entire town, allowing the believers in the town to pray better and generate more power of faith.
The rest of the mission district was a living area for the preachers to live comfortably.
The preachers' daily expenses came from this small town. A part of the town's tax went to the preachers.
Preacher Ackerman quickly walked to the holy treasure room and placed his identity card on the scanning circle of the holy altar. He then placed a few mana gems into the energy slot of the holy altar.
Soon, the altar emitted a pure white light. Outside the Missionary Point, the town's residents also saw the top of the Missionary Point begin to glow. This meant that the Missionary Point had reopened, and the town's residents could go to the Missionary Point to pray.
As soon as the altar was activated, Preacher Ackerman's identity card was used for the altar. Since Preacher Ackerman was in charge of the altar, all the residents in the town became followers of Preacher Ackerman.
At the same time, Abel realized that he had received the faith of the entire town through Ackerman.
Maybe it was because the mission point had been empty for a while, so the power of faith was not that strong. Still, he knew that as time went on, the altar would provide him with even more power of faith.
It was not just the normal residents in the town. Even the holy Knight in the town had become his believers. He could find the faith channel of those holy knights.
In other words, because of Ackerman, a small town in the Nation of God had become Abel's place of faith.
Ackerman was still a beginner preacher. If he got promoted to a higher position in the future, he would bring even more power of faith to Abel.
