"Happy New Year! I wish everyone good health, smooth work, progress in your studies, and good luck in the coming year. "

Sui Xiong had never been a coward who would admit defeat after being beaten. When he was still a human, he was a person who "repaid kindness with kindness, and repaid enmity with enmity." After his transmigration, he had improved his consistent principle to the point of "repay kindness three times, and repay enmity ten times."

Since the God of Conspiracy dared to instigate his followers to plot against him, he would fight back!

For example, he would swallow the other party's oracle.

In the face of such an arrogant provocation, the God of Conspiracy was, of course, furious. It was not that he had never encountered situations where his oracles were intercepted and killed, but now they were intercepted by a stupid jellyfish, and it seemed that they were about to become this big idiot's supper … If he could bear it, what else could he?

So he didn't think too much and directly activated his Divine Power. A black crack appeared in the night sky, and hundreds of grey-black dwarfs covered in black robes flew out of the crack. They had broad wings behind them and a pure black halo above their heads. With the magic provided by the halo, they could avoid most detection spells. Each of the dwarves held a pair of pure black daggers. They were weapons called "Betrayal Daggers," which contained deadly poison that could kill a person with a single scratch.

These were the killers, the army under the command of the God of Conspiracy, a horrible killer army that used shadows as cover. If Ryan died and went to the Holy Kingdom of the God of Conspiracy, it was very likely that he would also be turned into a killer.

In the face of countless killers, Sui Xiong didn't care at all. The huge jellyfish opened its big mouth, and a dazzling white light spurted out, turning into thousands of light arrows, and each arrow penetrated a killer's body.

These light arrows were made of strong positive energy, which happened to conflict with the negative energy that made up the killer's body. Countless explosions rang out one after another, and all the killers were wiped out, leaving not a single one behind.

"Come on! Bring it on if you have the ability! "

Sui Xiong waved his tentacles and shouted at the God of Conspiracy behind the crack.

The God of Conspiracy was so angry that his whole body was trembling. He no longer cared about the consumption of his Divine Power, and fiercely waved the artifact in his hand. A black thunderbolt cut through the sky, and directly hit the damn big jellyfish.

The lightning fell, but Sui Xiong was not afraid at all. He waved a tentacle to meet it.

The thick tentacles surrounded by a dazzling blue light collided with the black lightning. A low rumble sounded in the sky, and the invisible shockwave tore the light clouds of the night into pieces and scattered in all directions.

The giant jellyfish, who was unscathed, laughed out loud and waved its tentacles at the sky proudly. A huge human face appeared on its broad back, and its face was full of mockery.

Seeing this, the God of Conspiracy calmed down.

He was very clear about his own situation. He was not a brave god who was good at fighting. Unless he moved his God Kingdom to the ground at all costs, if he attacked from a distance, the power of his full blow would be almost at the level of the lightning just now. Since this weird jellyfish could easily withstand his lightning, he was afraid that he could not do anything to it.

Of course, he could try to send a doppelganger, such as the four-faced monster that was slowly being dragged towards the jellyfish's mouth. But after careful consideration, he gave up on this plan.

A mere face, a mere Oracle, was not worth the risk of losing a clone for them.

He did not know where this giant jellyfish came from. Maybe there was a powerful good god behind it, such as the big lion who liked to travel in the human world, or the fanatic of justice who had fought with almost all the gods, and … thinking carefully, he had so many enemies that he could not count them all in a short time.

Moreover, his "interpersonal relationship" was not much better than that fanatic of justice. Once he came to the human world, not to mention those gods who had a grudge against him, even those who did not have a grudge against him would probably fight with him.

Thinking of this, the great God of Conspiracy sneered and cut off the connection with the four-faced monster that had been caught. He no longer paid attention to this area.

In the dark night, only a cold sentence, "Be careful of the dagger stabbing you from behind," was floating in the wind.

It was not shameful to admit defeat, and he was not ashamed at all.

As for the believer who was still restless and praying to him later? Uh, what was that? He was so busy, how could he remember such a small thing …

Not to mention Ryan who was in despair, the audience in the treasure cave was also at a loss at the moment.

Sui Xiong clearly projected the confrontation between himself and the God of Conspiracy in the treasure cave. The two audience members, Gerrard and Palin, were stunned, and even their thinking stopped.

God! What did they see! A true god was defeated, forced to give up his own oracle, and retreated in disgrace!

"Although I always knew that His Majesty was very powerful, I never thought he was so powerful …" Gerrard scratched his head and opened and closed his mouth, but did not know what to say.

Palin's face was full of surprise. He stammered and whispered, "Is that … also a God?"

"Uh, yes. That is the god I believe in, His Majesty Void Mask. "

"What … what is his priesthood and doctrine?" Palin asked. "If you want to believe in him, how do you pray?"

Obviously, after witnessing the strength of this unknown god, the young mage was moved and wanted to throw himself into the arms of this god.

Palin did not believe in gods in the past. Although he also followed his elders to pray to the gods of the dwarf race, or to the Goddess of Luck, these prayers were mostly perfunctory. He did not really agree with the doctrine of a certain god, nor was he touched by the greatness of a certain god. According to the religious people, he was a non-believer. Even if he occasionally chanted the name of a god or prayed to a god, there was no sincerity to speak of, let alone belief.

In this world, the religious circle divided people's beliefs into six levels: non-belief, non-belief, pan-belief, sincere belief, fanatical belief, and holy belief. Non-belief referred to those atheists, who not only did not believe in gods, but also did not admit the existence of gods; non-belief referred to those who admitted the existence of gods, but were not willing to entrust their beliefs to others; pan-belief referred to those who regarded belief as a transaction, and only prayed when they needed the blessings of gods, or prayed in return when they prayed; sincere belief referred to those who recognized the doctrine of gods, prayed sincerely without any distracting thoughts, and were willing to go to the Holy Kingdom after death; fanatical belief referred to those who not only believed in gods themselves, but were also enthusiastic about spreading their beliefs and trying to make more people believe in them; holy belief referred to those who strictly followed the doctrine, and could fully embody the will of gods, just like the messengers of gods.

Among the people that Sui Xiong had met, Old Soth was a pan-believer of the Goddess of Luck, Ryan was a sincere believer of the God of Conspiracy, Palin was a non-believer, and as for Gerrard … it was difficult to define the degree of his belief. As far as personal feelings were concerned, he was definitely very enthusiastic about fighting for His Majesty Void Mask, and was completely qualified to be a fanatical believer. However, he knew nothing about the priesthood and doctrine of his own god, so he was not even a pan-believer in this aspect. The reason was really Sui Xiong's own fault — he himself did not know what his priesthood was, and he did not even bother to compile the doctrine …

Strictly speaking, until now, Sui Xiong was still not sure whether he was a god or not.

So when Palin asked Gerrard about the priesthood and doctrine of His Majesty Void Mask, and sincerely expressed that he wanted to believe in this god, not only Gerrard was stunned, but even Sui Xiong was embarrassed and did not know how to answer.

After a while, it was Gerrard, who often thought about this kind of question, who came up with the answer first, "His Majesty is a god who ascends naturally. He obtains power from the origin of the world, and has not developed a belief and doctrine for mortals for the time being."

"I see, similar to the Ancient God of Nature, right?" As a wizard, Palin was very proficient in occultism, so he immediately understood what Gerrard meant, and based on his own deduction, he came to a quite lofty conclusion. "Although I know that great gods such as the four Gods of Elements, the God of Earth, and the God of Sky are all Ancient Gods of Nature, and the belief of mortals can neither increase their glory nor cause any harm to them, I really did not expect that I would be able to see an Ancient God of Nature with my own eyes — a newborn Ancient God of Nature!"

He changed his mind and tried to persuade Sui Xiong, "But, brother White, I think it is better for His Majesty to develop his belief in the human world. The power of the Ancient God of Nature has always been growing too slowly. If it was in the ignorant primitive times, of course it would have time to grow slowly. But now it is an era of prosperity, and a god who only relies on natural growth to slowly improve his power can easily become the target of attack and plunder by those evil gods. It is true that he is very powerful, powerful enough to resist the attack of the God of Conspiracy, but what if several evil gods attack him together? "

Palin's words were clear and logical, and not only did Gerrard nod, but Sui Xiong also deeply admired him. However, he really could not think of how to develop his belief. Should he really spend money to build a few pioneer villages, and force the villagers to worship him every day, as Gerrard said?

No matter how he looked at it, that approach was not very reliable … Even if there were many people worshiping him every day, he did not know what doctrines he should let them follow, and he did not know what kind of protection he could give them.

More importantly, the reason why people in this world believed in gods, to a large extent, was not to be blessed when they were alive, but to be reborn in the Holy Kingdom without going to the underworld after death.

However … Sui Xiong did not have a Holy Kingdom at all.

"So, brother Palin, where do you think His Majesty should start now?" Gerrard did not think so much. He always asked what he did not understand, and he was used to leaving the thinking to the smart people, and he just focused on the execution.

Palin gently stroked the cover of the book in his hand, lost in thought.

Although as a young low-level wizard, he did not know much about things such as the belief of gods, for the "Church of the Void Mask", which had so few talents that it could be counted with one hand, he was already the only high-level intellectual.

He was duty-bound to use his brain.
