Thousands of Jingle's poured into the house. Of course, it brought endless liveliness and joy to the big house. The Goddess of Life's nature seemed to be engraved with the five elements of "liveliness, curiosity, optimism, huddling together, and activeness." They adapted to the new environment in a short time, and then excitedly toured the somewhat unfamiliar place under Jingle's lead. They would be surprised by everything they saw, and then a large group of Three-Inch Nails gathered there and chattered. You don't have to ask what these little ones are talking about. They just like to gather together and discuss. I can already see this.
In fact, thinking about it, as gods, they must have seen many more strange things in their lives. A mere Earth should be a very ordinary place for these little ones, but they are still so happy and full of novelty in the house. I thought for a long time, and finally attributed it to the Goddess of Life's huddling habit. As long as they can play with their sisters, it is the happiest thing in the world. As for what they are playing, they probably do not think about it.
Of course, there is another possible reason, and that is, these little ones are too small. As long as the space around them is more than a square meter, they will lose the concept of size. Then, they will feel especially powerful wherever they go. Jingle's big temple is big enough to fit several White Houses, but that little one is still sleeping comfortably in the lampshade at my bedside. She does not feel the difference between the two places at all.
The dozen or so Three-Inch Nails that were just caught have now blended into the large group of little goddesses. It is impossible to find out who they are. Even if someone wanted to pull them out and educate them individually, it would be a delusion. The elder sister packed up the large pile of long pole nets and insect boxes with a smile on her face. Obviously, she did not feel that these little ones are troublesome. Instead, she found them very amusing. I asked about what happened when I left with Sandora, and it turned out that the situation during this time was roughly as I expected.
The little ones came at noon. At that time, Sandora and I were busy in the City of Shadows, and we were having lunch at home. Therefore, the little ones caught up with the meal. I think the Galactic Protoss seems to have a culture from top to bottom that it is not a crime to freeload. Well, let's not discuss this for now. The target of these Palm Goddesses was indeed Dingdang. The little thing had solemnly flown into the air to announce the arrival of her sisters, and then big sister remembered seeing a patch of green light in front of her … It was so green that she couldn't see anything.
"They are always a little too energetic. Although they do not mean any harm, it is inevitable that they cause trouble for others." Monina sat down beside me with a slightly awkward expression. She was quite embarrassed that there was a Celestial System that specialized in mischievous children among the Galactic Protoss. "You did not see the scene at that time. The living room was instantly in an uproar. Little Bubble and Little Crow jumped up to catch the dragonflies. The fox that you raise also went up to join in the fun … Then, some of the Life Goddesses were startled. Coincidentally, the window not far away was open, and a group of them ran out."
"I was the first to see them," Icetis exclaimed proudly with a Little Bean Goddess on her head. The latter seemed to be everywhere and was a disaster. "I sealed the area around your house with a barrier in time, but there were still a dozen of them who ran out. Then, we brought the guys who were doing the work and ran out to settle the matter. Their Divine Power of Life was very obvious, so it was not difficult to find them."
"We just had to think of a way to divert the attention of ordinary people away or interfere with their senses. But it was not too troublesome," Monina added. "All the Little Bean Goddesses who ran out fled to the nearest ecological park. When we rushed over, they were discussing whether to replicate that park to the whole world. It gave me a cold sweat."
Damn, it gave me a cold sweat too!
"Previously, Jingle didn't make it clear to her sisters," Icetis said with a helpless expression towards Jingle. "Those little fellows didn't even know that the people on Earth were in an 'independent evolution' state. They thought that after they teleported over, they had directly arrived at the capital of the Empire. They thought that the people outside were all citizens of the Empire. Fortunately, we discovered it early. Otherwise, with those little fellows' personality, they would definitely go out and greet everyone they saw. By then, Love Without Boundaries would be busy again. "
I wiped off the white sweat on my forehead. (Did you guys realize that the cold sweat I had today was almost enough to solve the water crisis in the West?) I felt that this was the most challenging group of guests I had ever met in my life.
Just then, from the corner of my eye, I saw a furry tail rising up from the other side of the coffee table. Then, it searched everywhere. In the end, it found a fruit platter and nimbly rolled an apple into it like a human hand. I suddenly remembered that there was an incompetent fellow who needed to be taught a lesson. So, I slammed the coffee table and shouted, "Fox!"
The fox-eared girl stuck her head out from the other side of the coffee table. (Previously, she should have been lying on the carpet and pretending to be dead) and looked at me innocently.
She was still pretending to be innocent! The fox deity who had lived for thousands of years, the fox deity who claimed to be mature and steady, actually went out to catch 'dragonflies' with two little girls who were less than five years old combined. If it wasn't for her joining in the fun, there wouldn't have been a dozen Three-Inch Nails running out and causing a small commotion. Thus, I put on a righteous expression and prepared to teach the monster girl a lesson. In the end, I saw that her face was covered in black and white patches. Oh, I saw it when she entered the door, but I didn't have the time to ask.
"What happened to your face?" My righteous words died in my mother's womb, leaving only astonishment.
"It was burned by the God's fire." The fox girl walked around the coffee table and rubbed against me. She placed her tail on my leg to indicate that she needed comfort. "I don't know why, but other people were fine when they caught the Goddess. Only I got struck by lightning once every time I caught one …"
"After Sister Fox caught them, she used her mouth to bite them." Xiaoxue came over and reported in a low voice. "With one bite, her blasphemy index went off the charts. I was almost struck …"
I nodded blankly and used my hand to press on the fox girl's head. I said earnestly, "If you don't seek death, you won't die. Why don't you understand!"
Of course, this large group of Three Inch Nails couldn't continue to cause a ruckus. After all, with their numbers, it was quite a nuisance to the residents. So, they had to be placed in Jingle's Pantheon. The little ones were quite satisfied with this arrangement. Their main reason for coming here was to visit Jingle's new home. Naturally, the sisters' Pantheon was the focus of their visit. So, after staying at home for a short while, Liliana and I led the large group of Three Inch Nails to the Shadow City.
The teleportation point was around the Pantheon District. Because this was a sacred place, there were very few buildings and people around. There were many natural plazas around the Pantheon District. Of course, there were also large amounts of vibrant plants around the open space. The latter point surprised the Three Inch Nails the most.
Just as the teleportation was completed, I heard the large group of little ones behind me let out a messy cheer. Then, I saw a large green 'cloud' pass over my head and spread out in all directions. Compared to the modern city with few trees in the steel jungle, the vibrant environment around the Pantheon District was truly a good place for the Goddess of Life. Looks like it was the right decision to bring them here.
But this group of little ones is too difficult to manage! I haven't even said anything yet, stop flying around!
"Boss, boss, I can't manage them anymore!" Liliana hopped and ran behind the largest group of little ones for a long time. When the latter flew higher and higher and spread into more than ten waves, Female Pope came back with a sad face. "They are all Gods, we can't be rough …"
I looked at her sideways. This person who kept saying that we can't be rough just carried a bug trap back home not long ago. I can guarantee that when she used the net to catch the Goddess, she was more efficient and clean than anyone else. She trained with her own Goddess.
Of course, not all of the little ones ran away. There were still about two to three hundred little ones circling around me. These little ones were probably shy and sensible. They knew that they shouldn't cause trouble for the master of this place, so they obediently followed behind their leader. Hundreds of little ones flew around in circles within a ten-meter radius around me, constantly emitting green fluorescence, leaving behind mysterious shadows in the air. I felt that this scene was like something out of a fairy tale. This was truly a group of fairies that I couldn't help but associate with fairy tales.
I was touched by these little ones' understanding and decided to praise these well-behaved little ones for not flying around. But before I could say anything, a few little ones landed on my shoulders and looked at me with expectant eyes.
"Where's Candy? Jingle said that you always have a lot of candies. Where's Candy? "
The sensible and well-behaved fairies who followed the team from the beginning to the end asked while bouncing up and down. At that moment, I almost wanted to cry …
In the end, they didn't fly around because they were waiting to give out candies!
I rummaged through all my pockets. Of course, it wasn't enough. So, I opened my dimensional pocket. The little ones were right. I did bring a lot of candies with me. You all know the reasons, so I won't talk about it. A large pile of candies piled up on the ground. I heard a cheer that was even louder than before. Then, in the blink of an eye, the mountain of candies disappeared, leaving only a few pieces of candy wrappers swirling in the air. The ones who knew how to peel the candy wrappers should be the wild Jingle that I met the last time I went to God's Realm. Because I saw many little ones whom I met for the first time biting the wrappers on the candy wrappers. They usually ate the honey offered by their believers, and those things didn't have wrappers.
The little ones who had eaten candies from Earth before took on the role of a commentator and taught the sisters how to peel the candy wrappers. I looked around and realized that there was a large group of people gathered here. Most of them were people from the Temple or believers of the Goddess who lived nearby.
In a modern city like the City of Shadows that is filled with technology, there is a group of people who look different from us at first glance. They wear God's robes and the insignia of the Church. The Temple Knights even wear the full body armor of the Middle Ages. The Monks wear coarse clothes and straw sandals. The 'Atoning Monks' even wear clothes made of straw like barbarians. This group of people isn't commonly seen in other parts of the city, but they are the main residents of the Temple District. They are familiar with the Divine Power of the Goddess of Life. Thus, when I teleported over with a large group of wild Dingdongs, I attracted a crowd of onlookers within a few minutes.
Then, they saw hundreds and thousands of the Goddess flying around in the air. Groups of low-level believers knelt down devoutly as though they were bathing in a miracle. Liliana quickly ran to appease the believers and spread the word. I saw a guy wearing a Celestial Guard armor and holding a spear walk over with a stunned expression. He said to me as though his world view had collapsed, "Boss, you finally made your move?! Gosh, dragonflies reproduce at the speed of insects … "
When Lina and I left the plaza and headed toward the Divine Temple, Timumudo was still striking at the Divine Temple. His entire body was scorched black, and he was holding his spear like a lightning rod. I didn't know how many rounds of lightning he would need to strike before he was done. Based on his level of blasphemy, it would probably be enough for him to be struck by five lightning bolts. He was glad that more than half of the Little Bean Goddess had already flown away. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been as simple as three hundred lightning strikes …
"These are all Jingle believers!" The little guy sat on my head and buzzed around (Look at this onomatopoeia!). My sisters happily introduced me to them. I felt like a moving sugar jar with a large group of them waiting to be fed to me. On the way to the Temple, we continuously met small groups of wild Jingle. These were the ones who had been flying away on their own. I didn't know where they were playing for a long time, but now they were also flying towards the Temple. Finally, we met up with the main group. Of course, I had to give them candy one by one …
Candy was the daily food of the Goddess of Life.
I was like a primary school teacher leading the naughty children out to play. Along the way, I constantly lined up. Every time, I would pick up the little guys that were flying around. I had already realized a serious problem. The sisters that Jingle had invited didn't have a specific number, and there wasn't an exact list of them. From the moment we left home, no one was able to group up these little guys. I had no idea how many wild Jingle had fallen out of the group, and I also didn't know who the little guys that suddenly flew out from a corner to join the group were. This noisy group arrived at the Temple in a completely disorganized and undisciplined manner. In other words, it was in front of the World Tree. Jingle flew to the front and had her sisters line up in the air. Then, she pretended to count them and said cheerfully, "Well, although I don't know how many of them came, it should be no problem after I count them! This is Jingle's World Tree … "
Then, a large group of Three-Inch Nails cheered and rushed to the tree trunk, knocking the trees unconscious.
"The Temple's access control is broken. It takes two to three seconds to open the door every time," Jingle added the second half of the sentence in a low voice.
Was it too late for me to express my despair to this group of little guys now?
However, just as I was thinking about spending the afternoon with this group of happy little guys, I suddenly received an urgent message from Tawil. "Your Majesty, please come to the research center. There are some problems regarding the ancestor resurrection project."
"Boss? What's wrong? "Liliana asked curiously when she saw that I had suddenly stopped moving.
I took out a small box of star gold and passed it to the little girl. I patted her head and said, "Nothing. There's a situation at the research center. I'll go over. Help me collect the dust from the Goddess's body. Use this. Otherwise, the dust will dissipate."
You see, I didn't forget what I was here for. Although it seemed that Jingle had forgotten why she had called her sisters over, I didn't forget that a group of ancestors was still waiting for wild Jingle scum to save their lives.
Liliana replied with an "Oh." She looked at the small box in my hand and was troubled. She looked at the hundreds and thousands of wild Jingle hovering above her head. The green light dust that these little guys sprinkled made the surrounding air glow with a mysterious green light. "Boss, this box is a little troublesome to collect. There are too many Goddesses. You need to find a bigger container."
I thought about it and agreed. But where was I supposed to find an extra-large star gold box? It had to be big enough to collect hundreds and thousands of little guys. I thought for a long time and felt that it was impossible. In the end, I took out a vacuum cleaner from my dimensional pocket.
"Make do with it. The dust will take a while to dissipate in the outside world. You just need to collect it before it disappears."
Liliana took the vacuum cleaner from my hand and cried, "Boss, I'm the pope. Don't be like this …"
"Tsk. Why didn't you say you were the pope when you took the iron hoop and made your Goddess jump into the ring of fire? Work hard and you'll get sweets when you come back."
After saying that, I didn't care about the reluctant Liliana. I turned around and opened the teleportation portal to the research center.
I felt refreshed after I left the buzzing wild Jingle. It felt like the whole world was much quieter. I thought as I walked along the quiet corridor of the research center. Then, I found Tawil in the main laboratory. Sandora was also there. It seemed that the two of them had been chatting for a while. They didn't look too optimistic. I realized that the situation wasn't good.
"What's wrong?" I waved my hand and walked over. "If it's the Life Dust, Liliana has already started collecting it. There should be enough this time."
"The problem of the Life Dust is still a small matter." Tawil moved to the side. I saw another crystal coffin on the platform behind her. A thin ancestor was lying in it. The other equipment in the laboratory had stopped working, but the ancestor in the crystal coffin was still lying lifelessly. "The resurrection failed."
"Failed?" I widened my eyes. "Why?"
After knowing the process of resurrecting the ancestor, I really didn't think that there was a possibility of failure. Anthus' resurrection had been so smooth that it made people think that resurrecting the ancestor was easy.
"The soul has completely dissipated. The physical activity of the body is too low. Even the Life Dust can't activate this body. I've tried all possible methods, including injecting a large amount of Life Dust directly into the remains and using artificial souls to activate this body. There's no way. It's impossible to resurrect the ancestor …"
Tawil sighed and looked at me and Sandora. "Your Majesties, I'm sorry. I'm afraid that only a small portion of the ancestor can be resurrected, at least in theory."
