Each god has a priesthood and a domain. The former is a derivative of the power of the world's roots, and the latter is the mastery of his own power. If you want to obtain a priesthood, you first need to understand and master the corresponding power, and improve this mastery enough to touch the world. Only by accepting the rights and obligations derived from it can it be recognized by the world. Only by mastering this power from the height of the root can the priesthood be born.

From a personal point of view, it is enough to upgrade the power to the domain level - for example, Sui Xiong, he has mastered the power of multiple domain levels. In the battle with the gods, these powers can play a good role, and Don't worry about being restrained. But from the perspective of divine power, only by upgrading power to the priesthood level can the power derived from it be derived, thereby granting believers special abilities through the channel of faith.

Let's take Sui Xiong as an example. He once granted his believers the power of ice. At that time, he did it himself and transferred the power point to point. But if he will upgrade the power of "ice" from the domain level to the priesthood level, then every one of his believers can obtain the power of ice through prayer - as long as they are pious enough and can generate a belief channel of sufficient strength.

Once a god's ministry is established, believers can gain strength through prayer on a wide scale. Now that you have gained power, you naturally have to use it. In the process, trouble often ensues.

Among Morani's vocations is "mining". He is also the only god with this vocation in the entire pan-orc pantheon, so many orcs and half-orc miners believe in him. Mining often involves digging deep underground for mineral veins. In the process, conflicts with underground monsters are inevitable. Although the dark vision of the orcs is excellent, when working and exploring underground, dark vision alone is far from enough. Therefore, in conflicts, it is their side that suffers most.

These miners are just ordinary people. In the foreseeable future, they will not be as powerful as adventurers. Therefore, how to properly train them so that they can escape more easily when they encounter danger underground has always been This is the problem that gives Morani a headache.

He had also discussed this issue with other gods in the orc pantheon, but the orc gods did not take his concerns seriously.

"What does it matter about dead people? The little guys are very capable of giving birth anyway."

"Yeah, there's no mining that doesn't kill people."

"Morani, you are thinking too much, we are not nannies!"

The general stance of the orc pantheon is that of the evil camp. They despise life and value strength. They regard barbarism and ferocity as symbols of bravery, and do not care about the deaths and injuries of believers. Morani and the Savage Gods under his command are a group of neutral and even good-aligned gods. Respecting life is their unanimous attitude. The conflict between two different ideas made Morani's worries seem foolish and weak in the eyes of the orc gods.

If this "Iron Lion" wasn't really capable of fighting, almost no one among the orc gods could beat him. I'm afraid they would even laugh at him!

Morani was completely disappointed with these colleagues and had been thinking about how to solve this problem. It was not until today that he found a solution.

He can organize believers to have an adventure in the underground labyrinth of the Mask of the Void amusement park, and gain experience in conflict with underground monsters under the premise of safety. Although this experience is quite one-sided, it is better than knowing nothing!

However, there is still a problem that needs to be solved.

"My believers are generally not rich...I will find a way to pay for their training fees." Thinking of the money problem, the powerful main god of the wild god system also blushed a little. "I will go to the outer plane to look for it in a few days. Find some gold or something.”

"Talk about money is tacky!" Sui Xiong smiled and shook his head, "When you helped me, did you talk about money?"

"We can not talk about money, but believers cannot not talk about money." Morani said, "Your playground always needs maintenance, right? Maintenance costs, workers' wages, including transmission fees for safety, these are all It costs money.”

Sui Xiong was stunned by what he said. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this was really the case.

No wonder Snowflake was always so irritable when business was bad...

So the matter was almost settled, and Morani dispatched the entities of the wild gods to go to the outer plane to find wealth. The incarnation is organizing believers to go to the Mask of the Void Amusement Park in batches to receive underground exploration training.

This is also thanks to Sui Xiong who spared no effort to build a huge teleportation array. The gods only need to get the teleportation array password from him and let him open the corresponding permissions. Then they can activate teleportation from anywhere on the main plane and directly send believers Send them to the playground.

As for after training, they can also use the teleportation array to reach various royal capitals and then return to their respective mining areas.

This process will naturally incur huge costs, mainly consuming massive amounts of magic power. But for the gods, magic is not a problem at all.

After finalizing the matter, Sui Xiong and Morani traveled together to ask this enthusiastic ranger for knowledge on managing believers.

Managing believers is a required course for all gods, and it is also a problem that Sui Xiong has been troubled by before. He felt that since the believers believed in him and prayed to him sincerely for protection, he should protect them to the best of his ability. But this means that he will be bound by the believers, and he will inevitably be restrained when he conflicts with the enemy in the future - for example, the black dragon with a brain problem, if the God of Justice hadn't come forward, he really wouldn't know how to deal with that guy Possible attack.

The God of Justice is indifferent to this problem, because He does not need believers at all. He believes that "justice" is temporary but not eternal. When people encounter situations where they must choose, the concept of justice will burst out. And most of the time, people don't need justice. Therefore, His teaching is "When people need justice and are willing to sacrifice for justice, I will support them and give them the power to safeguard justice."

What if this is not the case

Let’s serve it cold! If His incarnation happens to be nearby, take action. If He can't control it, forget it.

"Although I am the God of Justice, I will never be bound by morality." When Sui Xiong asked Him for advice, He said, "The legitimate interests of mortals should be safeguarded, and my legitimate interests should also be safeguarded. This is justice! If my interests are harmed for the interests of mortals, how can it be considered justice?"

To put it bluntly, his attitude is "easy to gather and easy to disperse". He does not pursue long-term beliefs, nor does he maintain the organization of believers and churches.

That’s why He can roam the world with ease, and no one can do anything to Him.

"What about your Kingdom of God? How to arrange the Holy Spirits?" Sui Xiong asked.

The God of Justice smiled and said nothing. Sui Xiong immediately realized that he had asked questions he shouldn't have asked and apologized repeatedly.

This is the biggest secret of the God of Justice, and it is also something that the gods who are hostile to Him have always been puzzled about. How could it be revealed

In short, Sui Xiong could not learn the knowledge of managing believers from the God of Justice. And the other gods who have a good relationship with him are not good teachers either.

Although the God of Redemption is old, he is an old servant. In the long years, He has never been able to have a large number of believers, and He has never had any disputes with any gods, so he has never considered such issues at all.

The Goddess of the Sea... That is a negative teaching material. Even his successor, the Mermaid Princess, does not know how to manage believers. She has completely left this aspect to the demigods under her command, as well as the few surviving old holy spirits in the Kingdom of God. As for how they did it... Haha, it was nothing more than the six-character mantra anyway.

I can rest assured that you will do the work.

Sui Xiong was determined to learn from him, but he really didn't have such a powerful person under his command. There is only one all-rounder who now holds the title of high priest of the church and is working as a consul for others.

Leon himself expressed his willingness to return to work at the amusement park more than once, but Sui Xiong could not agree - Miss Cassali Riley prayed to the gods countless times to ask which god would help her bless her love. As a god that Leon believed in, Sui Xiong himself had received her prayers more than once.

Although he felt that Leon didn't seem to have much interest in the beautiful girl, but when he thought about it carefully, Leon was already in his thirties. If he were to be placed on the earth, he would definitely be considered a golden bachelor among older young people. He had reached the age where he should consider starting a family and starting a business. It's rare for a girl with good conditions to pursue him. As his eldest brother, how can Sui Xiong dismantle his brother

So not only did he not agree to let Leon return to the amusement park, but he secretly made a bottle of magic potion that can preserve youth forever and delay aging, so that Kasali can stay young and slowly fall in love with Leon.

"If it doesn't work in one year, then ten years. If it doesn't work in ten years, then one hundred years... Anyway, don't worry, I won't let you die of old age before that stupid boy." In the dream of the beautiful city lord, the big green jellyfish slapped its chest vigorously with its tentacles. , so assured, "I can't help with love matters, leave the logistics to me!"

Before he knew it, he had gained a very die-hard believer.

Morani listened to his ramble, chatting indiscriminately, with a smile on his face.

This new friend of mine usually lives a very lonely life... Seeing as he is so happy to occasionally meet someone to chat with, he must always be sitting alone on the altar, and there is a deep gap between him and the believers.

The huge difference between gods and mortals troubles every god who wants to be intimate with his followers. Why do gods often form pantheons? Of course there is an idea of forming an alliance to help each other, but more often than not it is just a group of lonely people hugging each other for warmth.

"Oscar, are you interested in joining the Savage God System?" He asked with interest during a break for lunch, "I have no intention of controlling or controlling anyone. Our God System is mainly just to facilitate everyone's chat and communication."

"Looking at you, I think... you need some friends with whom you can chat and communicate regularly."
