"You look bad," Sui Xiong looked at the Goddess of Wealth, Manissy, and said with a frown.
As the Goddess of Wealth, Manissy was a member of the great Divine Powers. Although she was not a god who was good at fighting, and she might not even be able to defeat some mid-level Divine Powers who were especially good at fighting, her strength was still beyond doubt.
This was like donating without sacrificing when the motherland was in need. This was definitely not a low moral standard, but the choice of reference was a little too high.
If every mid-level Divine Power was as good at fighting as the God of Strategy, Augmentin, or the God of Half-Orcs, Morani, then wouldn't the world be directly in chaos?
"600 million divine lands are all Yao and Shun" was after all just a beautiful ideal.
Manissy's strength could already be said to be among the top of the gods. She should have had strong divine power and abundant divinity, which gave her a graceful and luxurious temperament, as well as a majestic light that mortals could not look directly at. But now, her face was pale, and the dark circles and bags under her eyes were obvious. The majestic light around her body had also become very dim. As Sui Xiong said, she looked very bad.
Manissy smiled bitterly, shook her head, sat down in her usual seat, and sighed deeply.
After a while, she said, "Among my priesthoods, there are four most important ones. You all know that, right?"
The gods nodded.
Among the priesthoods of the Goddess of Wealth, Manissy, the four priesthoods were wealth, merchant, commercial behavior, and the Commonwealth of Gold Coins. Among them, the priesthoods of "wealth" were high and mighty, but they could not really provide much divinity. It was something that only emphasized the essentials. The priesthoods of "merchant" were her priesthoods, and the "Commonwealth of Gold Coins" was the key to her rise from a low-level Divine Power to a mid-level Divine Power. And the "commercial behavior" was woven through a series of policies with the help of Sui Xiong. Although it was only the beginning, its huge value had already been revealed.
As far as the current situation was concerned, these four priesthoods were her most important priesthoods. They were like four pillars that supported the great Divine Power named "God of Wealth." Perhaps the four priesthoods could be divided carefully, but no matter which one was missing, it would cause her to suffer a heavy loss. It would not be surprising if she directly fell from the great Divine Power back to the ranks of the mid-level Divine Powers.
Morani already understood and asked, "The Commonwealth of Gold Coins … is it really over?"
Manissy sighed and nodded.
"You can't even achieve formal unification?" the God of War Wenner asked.
Manissy sighed again and nodded.
"Then you're doomed!" Yorgaardman, the God of Justice, shook his head. "You're definitely going to lose your divinity."
Manissy sighed deeply and nodded with a grimace.
As one of his four fundamental godhoods, the "Commonwealth of Gold Coins" godhood originated from the worship and belief of the entire Commonwealth of Gold Coins toward him. As the god of the state religion of this country, he gained great benefits from this belief and accumulated a huge amount of divine power.
However, benefits, responsibilities, and risks were always linked together.
Now, the Commonwealth of Gold Coins was on the verge of falling apart. It would not be long before it completely collapsed and split into two or more countries. Although the Church of the Goddess of Wealth was still very powerful, it was impossible for it to become the national religion of the various territories like it had been in the past.
In other words, his priesthood was about to collapse, and it was difficult to repair.
After losing this Divine Title, even if they could make up for it with the faith of the small countries that had split off, it would not be able to achieve the same effect as before. Therefore, the divinity of the Goddess of Wealth was definitely going to be reduced this time.
Now, the only two questions were, how much would his divinity be reduced? And … when could it be made up for?
In the silence, Sui Xiong suddenly said, "Actually, this is also an opportunity for you."
"Opportunity?" Manissy was stunned for a moment. She looked at him and waited for him to finish speaking.
"In this world, no country can be eternal. Even the Eagle Kingdom, if it wasn't for the God of Knights, it would have been destroyed, right? "Sui Xiong asked.
Manissy nodded.
"In that case, why bother tying yourself to the kingdoms of the human world?" Sui Xiong said with a smile. "Why not take this opportunity to separate your priesthood from those human dynasties that are destined to be short-lived and not seek the position of the state religion in the future?"
Manissy nodded again. Of course, she felt that what Sui Xiong said was very reasonable. But then she frowned and asked, "If my priesthood is completely separated from the dynasties of the human world, then it means that the loss of the 'Commonwealth of Gold Coins' will be irreparable. Isn't that too big a loss?"
"Where there is gain, there will naturally be loss. If you want to jump out of the rise and fall of the human world and become a leisurely and contented spectator, of course, you have to pay a price." Sui Xiong made a gesture of "spreading his hands" with his tentacles. "There is no such thing as the best of both worlds in this world. It's just a matter of choosing whichever side is better. "
Manissy frowned and fell into deep thought.
Sui Xiong's suggestion moved her very much. It was undoubtedly excellent to be able to get rid of the influence of the rise and fall of the human world's dynasties and become a transcendent god. But if she did so, she would have to face a huge loss, and this made her very worried.
She was not an invincible super strong person like Sui Xiong. Once she suffered a huge loss and her divinity was reduced to mid-level Divine Power, she was afraid that there would be people looking for trouble with her in the open or in the dark.
Thinking of this, she could not help but sigh deeply again.
At this moment, Wenner said, "Manissy, what on earth are you thinking? Isn't this very obvious? "
His voice had some metallic clanging feeling, full of penetrating power and persuasiveness. "The human world's dynasties will eventually come to an end. Even if you manage to drag it out this time, what about next time? There will always be a time when you can't drag it out, right? "
"It's always good to drag it out for a while …"
"In the future, don't tell people that you are a member of our Void Alliance. It's so embarrassing!" Wenner snorted coldly and said impatiently, "It's nothing more than a reduction in your divinity. You have the priesthood of 'Commercial Conduct' that is constantly strengthening to rely on, and your overall divinity is very stable. What is there to worry about?"
"But … I still have many enemies …"
When she said this, Wenner suddenly burst out laughing.
"Are you a fool? What on earth gave you the illusion that 'I am a great Divine Power, so my enemies do not dare to do anything to me'? "
He looked very harshly and sternly at Manissy, who had a blank look on her face, and said impatiently, "Your enemies do not dare to deal with you, not because you are a great Divine Power, but because you have allies like us!"
"If you don't know how to fight, then go and be a good logistician. Don't always think that you can go on a killing spree!" He laughed out loud and patted Yorgaardman on the shoulder. "Fighting is the specialty of us combative people!"
Only then did Manissy come back to her senses. Her gaze lingered on Wenner and Yorgaardman for a while, and then fell on Sui Xiong.
Sui Xiong smiled and nodded.
So she burst out laughing, and the dejection on her face was swept away. Her whole person was refreshed.
"Alright!" She said energetically. "Then, I will take this opportunity to sort out my priesthood. From now on, I will bid farewell to the rise and fall of the human world's dynasties and be a leisurely and contented god!"
