Chapter 645: The Series of Dream God
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“The Yangtze River Water God, Shen Chang? What is this person trying to do?” Gao Peng, who was far away in the Black Fog World, had also received the news. On the second day after it was shot, this video spread like wildfire across the whole city of Hope.
In this era without religion, since everyone could only depend on themselves, the sudden appearance of a god was undoubtedly breaking news.
“Bah! This shameless Growing Brain! How dare it proclaim itself the Yangtze River Water God? It even said it blessed nearby citizens for about 1,700 years. How could it be so shameless?” Goldie exclaimed in an aggrieved tone. Such a pretentious opportunity should have fallen into my hands.
“I doubt anyone would trust a bald duck like you if you pretended to be a god,” Flamy smirked, for it could tell what Goldie was thinking about.
“Nonsense!” Goldie burst into anger as its thoughts were exposed. “How could you mock me like this?”
“Was I mocking you? Yikes… Since when you dare to talk to me so loudly, Little Baldie?” Flamy said in a gentle tone.
Goldie couldn’t help the quiver in its body as a cold sweat broke out on its bald head.
“It intends to follow the pathway of the Faith to God.” Fatty Big Sea hit the nail on the head. With its experienced and intimidating insight, it could see through the Growing Brain’s approach.
“Even though the pathway of Faith to God is the fastest to turn into a god, there are many disadvantages,” Fatty Big Sea said.
“What are the disadvantages?” Gao Peng asked curiously.
Fatty Big Sea used its fin to stroke its chin and slowly nodded. “Let me tell you a story. Last time, there was an influence in the Wei Mian Sea. This influence was called the Series of Dream Gods, which had great power. The gods in this time were well-equipped with the magical, spirit, spiritual, and dream rules. They used to be the most influential back then, as they had a total number of approximately hundreds of gods.”
“Hundreds of gods?” Gao Peng found it unbelievable, as this number was too big.
“Yes. Because the Series of Dream Gods had many, its influence increased tremendously at the height of its power. Within the Series of Dream Gods, there were four main god leaders—the Magical God leader, the Heart God leader, the Thought God leader, and the Dream God leader. The holy power of each god leader expanded vastly.
“It wasn’t known how many of them wanted the Wei Mian Sea. It was also because their power was strong, so they became more ambitious. One day, the series of Dream Gods announced its slogan—Conquer Wei Mian Sea.”
Fatty Big Sea heaved a deep sigh. “The expansion of their influence caused many other gods to be displeased with it, and after they announced their slogan, it even caused the gods to be filled with flames of fury.
“When the war started, countless gods from the Wei Mian Sea acted as though they had agreed on fighting together against the Series of Dream Gods. The war lasted for exactly 30 years. I also took advantage of this period to rise abruptly as a god, but when I became a god, the war had almost ended. Four of the god leaders were killed in the battle, or maybe only three were dead and one dream god leader went missing.
“Anyways, the Series of Dream Gods were damaged badly, and almost all the gods who were named were killed,” Fatty Big Sea said.
“If it’s as you say, then the Faith to God path must be very powerful, since it was able to develop so many gods,” Gao Peng muttered.
“This was definitely the benefit of the Faith to God route. But first, you need to know that the reason why they could produce so many gods was that they also had a large group of believers,” Fatty Big Sea uttered. “They became the guardians that looked after the needs of a large group of people from a certain race with low-level but comparably high IQ and mental strength, then turned them into passionate believers.
“The most important thing was that… the combat power of the gods that took the Faith to God route was the weakest among the other gods at the same level,” Fatty Big Sea explained.
Gao Peng was a little surprised. “The Faith to God path creates the weakest gods? I thought the weakest path was…” Gao Peng kept his mouth shut, then stared at the Fatty Big Sea, grinning without a word.
“F*ck!” Fatty Big Sea was dumbfounded for an instant before it regained its composure.
“Forget about it! Forget about it!” Fatty Big Sea turned into a fat fish head in a grumpy mood while huffing, looking like a dolphin. No matter who asked it a question, it wasn’t willing to say a word.
“If I ever tell you about these things again, then I’ll become a dog!” Fatty Big Sea sneered. “A fat dog head!”
…
As Goldie heard that the combat power of the Faith to God was the weakest, it became uninterested immediately. Most of the other familiars under Gao Peng also had waning interest in the Faith to God path. This wasn’t to say that they hated it, but they just stopped eavesdropping.
Birds of a feather flocked together, and it was the same for the monsters and familiars. Dumby, Da Zi, and Goldie, as well as the former god, Fatty Big Sea, that were at the Mythical grade, had caused Gao Peng’s familiars to broaden their horizons. Hence, they would definitely be less interested in following Faith to God.
Only a few familiars couldn’t restrain their desire. Moneymaker ran over eagerly. “What are you talking about? What is the Faith to God? It sounds like something very impressive.”
As a non-combat Familiar, it was never Moneymaker’s job to be involved in battle, and a soldier wasn’t what it considered itself. It thought itself an excellent Moneymaker Mouse who was responsible for supporting the team diligently and shouting cheers at its big brothers.
“Are you okay, Little Brother?” Goldie squatted down and slapped Moneymaker’s head. “How could you be so unambitious? Faith to God sounds like rubbish, and yet you said that you’re interested in it!?”
Moneymaker stammered as it said, “Errr… I feel like Faith to God isn’t bad…” Goldie looked too fierce to it.
“What’s good about that d*mn thing?! Wait until I become a god, then I’ll kill two individuals that followed Faith to God to entertain myself.” Goldie chuckled.
“Stupid Baldie, come back here.” Flamy couldn’t bear watching this anymore. That’s your choice to not believe in Faith to God, but please don’t scare Moneymaker off. Moneymaker is indeed an adorable creature. Usually, it uses its ability to search for good food and present it to me. It’s such a good mouse.
Flamy extended its neck, its beak sandwiched between Goldie’s neck, and moved backward. Moneymaker glanced at this scene surreptitiously, hiding the smile in its heart. It hadn’t introduced the bird to the wrong creature.
“Okay, okay! I’ll stop talking. Flamy, you better not cause yourself to experience the symptoms of a miscarriage.” Goldie smiled as it stooped down.
Excuse me?! Symptoms of a miscarriage?
The group of familiars immediately switched their attention, for their interest was piqued by that statement. The group of them stared Flamy down, causing Flamy to feel its body heat up.
“I… I’m not pregnant.” Flamy was filled with unutterable anger in its heart. “I only gained weight because I’ve eaten too much recently.”
“Oh, oh—” Gao Peng and the group of familiars revealed expressions that showed that they had known what was going on as they chuckled.
“Honk!!!” The skyrocketing flames enveloped Goldie, the blazing column rising to hundreds of miles high…
“Although the combat power of Faith to God wasn’t considered high, at least it could make a god. No matter how weak a god is, it’s still better than a Quasi God…” Gao Peng thought of an example when he mentioned it. He altered his speech pattern and said, “A weak god is still so much stronger than many other Quasi Gods!
“Also, the path of every familiar is different. The fact that Growing Brain could find a suitable pathway for itself is a good thing. As Fatty Big Sea mentioned about the Series of Dream Gods, I imagine the ability of the Growing Brain is quite similar to that of the Series of Dream Gods. Since others could pursue this pathway for this long and be this successful, it proves that the future of this route must be very bright.”
Gao Peng said, “Since that’s the case, our focus now is to support the Growing Brain to help simplify its route. If anyone of you has any ideas, feel free to express your opinions enthusiastically.”
