Damwade was a very practical person. When it came to issues related to his own interests, he was not shy at all. Compared with some people who "obviously wanted it but said no", he might not be so cute, but he was undoubtedly much more practical and reliable.
For example, now, as soon as he heard that there was a chance to be apotheosized, he immediately ignored everything and said "I do" repeatedly. He almost wanted to take out his heart to prove that he was really willing and not false at all.
Because his emotions were a little too excited, Sui Xiong had to cast a spell on him to calm his emotions down before talking to him in detail.
The priesthood of "agriculture" had never appeared before, because there had never been the concept of "agriculture" in this world. There used to be a protector of farmers, but later it disappeared, because it was killed by the Goddess of Harvest.
A few years ago, the Goddess of Harvest and the Goddess of Wealth were enemies, and both sides constantly attacked each other. Maybe because of low intelligence, the Goddess of Harvest was always at a disadvantage. Finally, she took a risk and tried to promote a follower god, but the promotion failed. Not only did she lose the only strong demigod in the church, but also a large group of evil gods broke into the Holy Kingdom. Even with the help of the God of Justice and the Void Mask, the God of Justice did not hold any grudges against the Void Mask. He did abandon the Holy Kingdom and escape, but he did not expect that the God of Quagmire, who had been his enemy for thousands of years, was lying in ambush in the dark. When he was about to escape, the God of Quagmire launched a sneak attack and killed him.
After the death of the Goddess of Harvest, the priesthood of "harvest" was separated, and the gods fought for it. Yorgaardman, the God of Justice, was annoyed that these guys were dragging their feet when they came to rescue, but when they saw the benefits, they rushed over like mad dogs. In a rage, Yorgaardman used his great divine power and smashed the Harvest priesthood into pieces.
Since then, this priesthood and related priesthoods had been in chaos. According to the estimation of the gods, it would take about two or three hundred years for it to be reunited by the faith of the human world and take shape again.
At that time, another open and veiled struggle would be unavoidable.
But Sui Xiong did not think so. He felt that the priesthood of "harvest" was broken, and it was a good opportunity to occupy its content and condense other priesthoods.
If the priesthood of harvest was still there, the priesthood of agriculture might not be condensed, because the belief of the farmers must first point to the concept of "harvest". As for "agriculture" … it was so distant, how could the farmers understand it! They only cared about the most direct thing, long live the harvest!
So, if the Harvest priesthood hadn't collapsed and shattered, it wouldn't have been convenient for him to let Damwade try to condense the "Agriculture" priesthood!
"Your Majesty, what should I do?" Damwade had regained his composure under Sui Xiong's spell, but he was still anxious and asked hurriedly.
Sui Xiong thought for a while and said, "First of all, you have to combine fertilizers, farming tools, and farming tools. First, you have to write an agricultural guidebook, which will also serve as a clear sign that faith points to you."
Damwade nodded, then suddenly paused and said, "This … A lot of things were actually designed by Lord Keane …"
"Crick's situation is different from yours." Sui Xiong smiled. "He will not seek to be a god, and the priesthood is meaningless to him."
Damwade looked at Crick in surprise and then looked at Sui Xiong. He seemed to have guessed something and asked tentatively, "Could it be … that he has become your Holy Spirit?"
This was exactly the identity that Sui Xiong had arranged for Crick — a lofty position and outstanding contributions, but he rarely showed up in front of others. So he smiled and nodded, acknowledging this matter.
"I see!" Damwade nodded with understanding. The Holy Spirit was not only the backup incarnation of the gods, but also the successor after the gods fell. Its status was similar to that of the Crown Prince of a country. Except for a few gods, most of the gods strictly protected and hid their Holy Spirits so that they would not be exposed, so that they would not be killed and beheaded by their enemies.
Since Crick Keane was the Holy Spirit of His Majesty the Void Mask, it was no wonder that he had such great achievements. It was also no wonder that even though he had been brilliant during his lifetime, his soul was nowhere to be found after his death.
"Eh? Since the Lord is your Holy Spirit, why did he come out again this time? "Damwade thought for a while and asked doubtfully.
"It's just a coincidence," Crick said with a smile. "My current job is mainly to train and manage the oracles. This time, His Majesty saw your achievements and remembered that we are acquaintances, so he asked me if I would like to see you. Of course, I would like to see you, so it's settled. "
"… I will keep it a secret!" Damwade said firmly. "No one can know your whereabouts from me! Later, I will use a spell to destroy this memory! "
His method was really firm and reliable to the extreme. If he really used magic to destroy this memory, then no one could really know Crick's whereabouts from him.
But … this was not the result that Sui Xiong wanted.
"You don't need to be so troublesome," Sui Xiong said with a smile. "I am very happy that you have this intention. However, your plan is wrong. "
He said mysteriously, "When you return to the human world this time, not only do you not keep it a secret, but you also have to tell others that Crick is here with me. Tell others that this time, because of his special care, you have received a reward that is beyond your own contribution. Also tell others that he is training the army for me."
"Ah?!" Damwade was stunned and felt that his brain was not enough to understand.
Didn't other people's Holy Spirits have to be kept secret? Didn't His Majesty the Void Mask also keep it secret before? Why did he suddenly change his approach? And it was a 180-degree turn!
Seeing his confused face, Sui Xiong said with a smile, "Let me ask you a question. If you want to do something that is not secret enough and is easy to attract attention, but you don't want others to notice you, what will you do?"
Damwade thought for a moment and asked, "Cover it up with magic?"
Sui Xiong shook his head.
"Find a hidden place as much as possible, such as a certain Half Bitwall?"
Sui Xiong shook his head.
"That I don't know."
"Of course there is no particularly good way, but there is a way to try," Sui Xiong said. "Find another person whose identity is related to you and who is far more eye-catching than you. Do something far more eye-catching than you and attract people's attention to other aspects."
Damwade opened his eyes wide and immediately understood what Sui Xiong meant.
But he was even more surprised.
"This … this is to let Your Excellency cover for me?!" Because of excitement, his voice was a little trembling. "This … this … I can't afford it!"
"There is nothing you can't afford." Crick smiled and patted him on the shoulder. "Helping you become a god is the most important thing in front of us. In order to accomplish this, I will be a bait to attract other people's attention. What's wrong with that? "
"This … really frightens me …"
"Don't be frightened. You should be proud." Crick laughed. "Among the mortals, you are the first and probably the last person who is qualified to let me, Crick Keane, be a bait and cover for him."
"So you have to work harder and strive to become a god," Sui Xiong said. "I will often contact you directly for the specific ideas, and maybe I will also send Crick to contact you. In short, your goal is two points. The first is to clarify the concept of 'agriculture' in the human world; the second is to make people think of you, Damwade, when they talk about 'agriculture'. "
"As long as you can do these two points, leave the rest to me." He patted his body with his tentacles and made a low and powerful voice. "I am not talented. In addition to fighting, I like to help others become gods."
"And so far, all the gods who have received my help have succeeded, and no one has failed!"
