The petitioner's new form was stabilizing.
Meanwhile, Søren was deep in thought. As a god, there were many things he needed to consider.
Death was an unavoidable fate for mortals.
There were only three paths after death. The first was to have one's soul completely disappear, which was the most tragic outcome. The second was to fall into the River Styx and be washed into the depths of the Source Sea to be remolded. It was like a pile of scrap paper being crushed and made into a new piece of white paper. The third was to have one's soul reincarnate. Whether it was in the upper or lower realms, reincarnation was the best outcome after death because it represented a new possibility. Although it might be the beginning of a difficult life for the weak.
There was also an absolute non-believer. These people were actually quite rare. It was rare to meet someone who had no faith at all. Pantheon was common in the multiverse. In the past few hundred years, there had been no non-believers who were plastered to the wall. In order to avoid such a fate, even those who hated the gods would recite a few sentences verbally. As long as they recited a few sentences, they would no longer be considered non-believers. The multiverse's laws were much more tolerant of these people. Most of them were souls that were washed into the Source Sea by the River Styx.
Among reincarnations, entering a god's kingdom was the best.
If they were reincarnated in another realm, they would be like wild beasts that had no one to protect them. Their life and death depended entirely on luck. The upper realms were slightly better, but the lower realms were completely tragic. Many people who didn't have a strong enough faith but had a clear alignment would automatically reincarnate to other realms. The evil ones would reincarnate to the Baator Inferno or the Bottomless Abyss. The good ones would reincarnate to Mountain Paradise or the Paradise. Those who had a special alignment might end up in the Gray Wilderness or the Wild Wilderness.
These souls who didn't have a strong enough faith were reincarnated in the wild. They would be reincarnated as wild beasts and would retain some memories based on the purity of their souls.
Most reincarnated souls would retain some memories, but the proportion was relatively small.
Only Legendary Masters could remember a little of their past life clearly after reincarnating, while Holy Spirits could remember most things.
The soul was still the same soul.
It was just that after changing its life form, it would lose part of its memories.
Next.
This was the most important reincarnation of the believers of the gods.
This was the best place to return to. Even the followers of evil gods could have a higher starting point after reincarnation than other creatures. More importantly, they were the lambs that the gods were herding. The gods had the obligation to protect these reincarnated petitioners. They would not be killed for no reason. They had a higher starting point and could live a longer life. It was possible for them to obtain a higher status in the Divine Kingdom through their abilities.
The divine kingdoms of the upper planes were undoubtedly very beautiful.
However, very few people could enter it. Most mortals wanted to go to Mountain Paradise, but less than one in ten thousand people were qualified to go!
Søren needed to decide on the structure of the Kingdom of God.
This was because his church had not yet begun to describe their God Kingdom to their followers. Telling them what the inside of the God Kingdom was like was a very important part of a church.
Even the gods of the evil alignment would try their best to shape their divine kingdom to make it more attractive to their believers.
The Queen of Spiders was cruel, wasn't she?
Although there were terrible spider elves and wax demons in her divine kingdom, there were also normal drow petitioners in her divine kingdom. They occupied the ruling position in the divine kingdom, lived a better life than the mortal world, and enjoyed the joy of enslaving many creatures in the divine kingdom. Many terrible monsters were distorted because of the punishment of the Queen of Spiders. If a drow matriarch who had faithfully pleased the Queen of Spiders entered the divine kingdom after death, she might be directly given the same status as in her previous life and continue to serve the Queen of Spiders for a long time.
This was the structure of the divine kingdom.
Søren needed to consider this. The form of the main creatures in the divine kingdom was the most important part of the structure of the divine kingdom.
In other words.
Søren needed to consider what type of race would be the core of the divine kingdom in the future. Whether it was the undead, demons, angels, or treants, the divine kingdom must form an orderly pyramid structure.
What he needed to do now was to divide the pyramid.
The growth potential of the petitioners was far less than that of other creatures. Having a higher starting point would make the foundation of the divine kingdom more stable.
…
"Deactivate the divine form."
As Søren retracted his divine power, the divine light that shrouded his body gradually disappeared. Using the power of divinity cost a lot, so it was best not to use it if possible.
The reincarnation in front of him had taken shape.
It had the bloodline ability of a demon, but it was integrated with Søren's divine power.
This was the most basic sample. If Søren wanted to construct the life structure of the divine kingdom in the future, he would need it as a foundation.
"Data simulation starting!"
"Calculating the potential data of the reincarnation!"
Although they were all humans, their attributes were different. The potential of the reincarnation needed to be estimated roughly. Søren had to figure out the potential of this form.
A row of data appeared in front of him:
"Species: Petitioner (Demon Modified Life)"
"Level: Creature Level 7."
"Attributes: Strength 15-21, Dexterity 18-25, Constitution 15-20, Intelligence 10-18, Wisdom 12-18, Charm 5-18."
"Natural Ability: Demon Skin, Fire Resistance, Otherworld Life."
"Special Ability: Flame (Sacrifice)."
"Data simulation completed."
…
Following the simulation of the divine level, the potential of the reincarnation in front of him was calculated.
As the basic form of otherworld life, most petitioners had a much higher starting point than mortals. However, their growth potential was slightly lower than when they were alive. If the soul was not pure enough and the body was not strong enough, many petitioners' initial abilities would be their strongest form in the future. The higher the starting point, the better. Therefore, the basic attributes of the angelic reincarnation form in the upper realm were very strong.
"Strength fluctuates between 15 and 21."
"This should be the strengthening of the demon bloodline. It's much higher than a mortal's strength."
"Dexterity can reach a maximum of 25 and a minimum of 18. Although it can't be compared to the angelic form, many of its abilities can reach more than 20, its combat power should not be weak. Angelic reincarnation has high requirements for the soul. "
"Constitution is okay."
"Intelligence potential is average."
"Perception is good."
"Charm is slightly lower, but it doesn't matter."
The data simulation showed the highest and lowest fluctuations. Their attributes were not bad, but this was the starting point of their natural Creature Level 7.
In other words, the moment they completed their reincarnation, they would have a natural Creature Level 7.
This was the reincarnation done by Søren himself. If it was expanded into the kingdom in the future, their natural Creature Level might be lowered to around Level 5, and some of their attributes might be lowered by 1 or 2 points.
"If that's the case …"
"In the future, most of the petitioners in the kingdom will be able to gain around 20 points in Dexterity."
There were upper and lower limits to the attributes of the petitioners.
For example, the range of attributes of humans was the most average among all the races. The range of all the attributes of humans fluctuated between 3 and 20 points.
The lower limit was very low, but the upper limit was also very high.
The advantage of the petitioners was that the lower limit was very high. There would not be any weak or mentally handicapped people. However, the upper limit of some attributes was not as high as that of humans.
The highest attribute of the elves was Dexterity, which fluctuated between 8 and 25 points. The highest attribute of the dwarves was Constitution, which fluctuated between 10 and 25 points.
The higher the attribute fluctuation, the lower the probability.
A golden radiance appeared.
Under Soran's power, the soul began to gradually synchronize with the body. The reincarnation that had just been completed in front of Soran was like the transformed demons in the wilderness. Its expression was quite blank, as if its self-consciousness had not been fully integrated.
Many souls that were reincarnated in the Abyss would wander around unconsciously for a period of time.
However, as a life created by Søren, the reincarnated body in front of him recovered a trace of its memory in a short period of time. It knelt down before Søren and said, "My Lord!"
It had forgotten many things.
It could not even remember its own name. However, as a believer of Søren, it still remembered that Søren was the god it served.
It also remembered the battle experience it had accumulated over a long period of time in its previous life.
"Rise."
Soran looked at the reincarnated body in front of him. He was a special individual with the characteristics of petitioners, but he was not assimilated by the God's Kingdom, so he would not be trapped in the God's Kingdom and could not leave easily like the latecomers.
"Let me see your innate ability," Søren said slowly.
This reincarnated body used the bloodline of a demon's incarnation. It could be said that it had inherited a trace of the Balrog's power, but it was hard to say how much it could reach.
"Yes. My Lord! "
The reincarnated body obeyed Søren's orders. It pondered for a moment as if it was familiarizing itself with its body. Then, a trace of fire appeared on the demon tattoo on its body, and its entire body was enveloped in a ball of fire.
"Body of Flames?"
"No!"
"Its energy is decreasing! This is not the Body of Flames that can be activated permanently like the Balrog's! "
"It's more like a temporary ability."
Søren did not ask it to stop. The reincarnated body kept the flames burning on its body. This process lasted for about five minutes, and then the flames on the reincarnated body disappeared.
It looked rather tired, as if it had used up a lot of energy.
"It really is a temporary ability."
"Although it's not as effective as the Balrog, it's already very powerful as an individual!"
The reincarnated body's ability was similar to the Halo of Sacrifice. It consumed its own mana to form a ball of fire around its body. On the other hand, the Flaming Demon and the Balrog were permanent passive abilities. If it was necessary, the reincarnated body could be enveloped in flames.
"This is the initial ability."
"If other petitioners reincarnate in the future, what abilities and innate abilities they get will depend on the characteristics of their souls."
Søren had only created a body template.
The strength of the soul could bring about some other abilities, and it could also give some special abilities. These were all different from person to person.
This was why the Gods, Demons, and Devils liked the souls of the strong.
"Which weapon do you want to use?"
Although the reincarnation process was completed, the test was not over. Søren threw out many different weapons, and then said to the reincarnated body in front of him, "Try and see which one is more suitable for you!"
Weapon mastery.
There were two conditions that determined this. One was the weapon he was used to in his previous life, and the other was the God's special inclination.
Just like how Søren's Priest was born with the [Curved Sword].
The reincarnated body's memory was still blank. He did not understand what Søren wanted to do, but he would carry out his orders loyally. He walked in front of the weapons, picked them up one by one, and finally chose a heavy curved sword.
"As expected!"
"The Petitioner's weapon inclination is influenced by the God's favorite weapon."
The reincarnated body wasn't very flexible with other weapons, but he was abnormally comfortable with the scimitar. As though he felt that one scimitar wasn't enough, he picked up a second one and could easily use it with both hands.
"Eh?"
"Could it be that he has the potential to master dual-wielding?"
The Balrog was born with dual-wielding weapons. One was a whip, and the other was a sword. The reincarnated body in front of him seemed to have inherited the potential of dual-wielding, which meant that it would be easier for him to master the [Dual-wielding] ability.
"Follow me."
"You need an opponent to test your combat ability."
Søren needed complete and detailed data analysis and statistics. He directly brought the reincarnated body to the outside of the Gulumba Arena. Then, the Demon Incarnation brought the reincarnated body an opponent.
A Monster Level 6 Berserk Demon!
The Berserk Demon weighed more than 1,800 pounds and had an obvious advantage in strength. After receiving the order from the Demon Incarnation, it immediately rushed toward the reincarnated body.
Rumble!
The ground trembled slightly. In the moment when they clashed, the reincarnated body awkwardly dodged the enemy's attack.
He was still not used to fighting.
However, his Agility was very high, reaching more than 20 points. This meant that he was quite flexible.
"Continue!"
Søren's expression was cold. He was not worried that the reincarnated body would die. He had enough confidence in his modified life form. If he could not even defeat a Berserk Demon, it meant that the reincarnated body was a failure.
Clang!
Rumble!
Facing the Berserk Demon's crazy attacks, the reincarnated body began to retreat. However, after dozens of exchanges, he gradually began to counterattack. He even successfully stabbed the Berserk Demon's neck.
His combat ability from his previous life was awakening.
It was as if he was born with some simple combat skills.
The situation gradually changed.
The reincarnated body quickly discovered his advantage and began to use his extraordinary Agility to fight the enemy. The Berserk Demon's injuries were getting worse. When a flaw appeared in its attack, the reincarnated body roared and stabbed the enemy's heart with his curved sword.
The battle ended.
The reincarnated body looked very miserable. His body was covered in mud, but he was not injured at all.
"Looks like I succeeded."
"His potential is greater than I thought. Maybe I can use him as a blueprint for the future Kingdom of God."
Thinking of this, Søren could not help but look at the reincarnated body in front of him with satisfaction.
The future.
The core of the Kingdom of God's army would be like this.
