Chapter 332 Death of the Earth God

Seeing Ye Shen's serious expression, Zhou Yi realized that this was not a joke.

"The other party is also a conceptual life?"

"Ah."

For some reason, she seemed unwilling to talk more.

Zhou Yi was thinking of the right words: "Is it that you can't mention the other person casually, or it might bring you trouble?"

Ye Shen nodded.

"So can you explain this mechanism that causes trouble?"

"This is acceptable."

Ye Shen thought for a moment and said, "Conceptual life has a prototype. You know that conceptual life will undergo a series of evolutions based on the prototype, mainly the expansion of the field of consciousness."

“Conceptual life is spread and reinforced as long as it is mentioned. To use an analogy, our prototype is the store, and we can be considered the visible owner of the store.”

"If someone talks about, spreads, and spreads our name, it means that they are constantly consuming from us, purchasing the service of our name, which will bring us continuous income and enhance our strength."

"On the other hand, if conceptual beings talk about each other, the one whose name is mentioned will also notice it. If it's harmless creatures like the Earth God or hot pot, it's no big deal if they're talked about. But if it's someone dangerous, it'll be troublesome."

Zhou Yi understood immediately.

The one who killed the God of Land was a powerful and highly aggressive conceptual life form.

"Although I cannot mention its name, I can give you a hint."

Ye Shen looked at Zhou Yi and said, "Almost everyone in this world knows about it. The original prototype has great dominance and deterrence. It is a name that cannot be avoided in this world."

Zhou Yi thought about it.

Famous, dominant, intimidating, a name that cannot be avoided.

"Heaven?"

Ye Shen nodded.

Zhou Yi understood immediately.

The concept life [Heaven] is based on a vast country, and its popularity and reputation are indeed at their peak.

According to the mechanism of conceptual life, not only the citizens of heaven are its loyal believers, but also a large number of people in the outside world will constantly talk about this name.

"why?"

Zhou Yi frowned: "The God of Land has been in seclusion for a long time, it's not like he would cause trouble..."

"Yes, it lives in seclusion, but that doesn't mean trouble won't come to it."

Ye Shen waved his small fan with a look of regret on his face.

"Originally, the God of Land would have done nothing and nothing would have happened. But it suddenly showed kindness and saw that many people had died on the land this year. The people there offered sacrifices of their remaining food to it, praying for its arrival and help. So it sealed the farmland on several small islands, giving the islanders a chance to have a good harvest and live another year."

"This angered the guy. Because the Earth God had refused to build a burial ground for him in the past, and had also refused to listen to his call. This time, the burial ground island was not far from the guy's territory, so he found an excuse and killed the Earth God."

Zhou Yi was a little puzzled: "The gap between the two sides is so big? Can't escape?"

According to his combat experience.

It is normal for beings of the same level to win or lose against each other, but it is extremely difficult to completely kill an opponent of the same level.

“The gap is huge.”

Ye Shen nodded, his eyes revealing memories: "The Earth God himself is incomplete, and the power he possesses is less than one percent of his prime. When facing an opponent who is still in his prime, there is indeed a class gap."

Zhou Yi was puzzled: "Why does the Earth God only have 1% of his power?"

"Because 99% of the power of the Earth God has been suppressed and taken away by another true giant. He is also the pinnacle of conceptual life in this world, the unshakable and absolute strongest. Any conceptual life will be affected and influenced by him."

Ye Shen said faintly: "The [Dead Sea] is such an existence, it dominates both sides of the world."

"Fortunately, it has a tendency towards chaos, which is more like the evolution of natural laws. Although it is extremely dangerous, it will not act rashly."

Zhou Yi suddenly realized.

Over 90% of the world is covered by the Dead Sea, no wonder it is said that the Earth God has been suppressed and his power has been taken away.

Even Heaven has to bow before the Dead Sea.

"How long will it take for the Earth God to be resurrected?"

Zhou Yi asked.

He had heard Yuan Xiao say before that Long was killed by a celestial being once. Now he was far from his peak and could only live in the forbidden continent.

In theory, the Tudigong, a concept older and more widespread than the dragon, should be easier to resurrect.

"Can't tell."

Ye Shen blinked, "Anyway, I'm here to deliver a message for it. Before it died, it sent me a message and asked me to tell you that winter would not come because it was killed. It will be resurrected probably next year, spring if fast, winter if slow."

Zhou Yi felt relieved.

He thought again: "What if it is resurrected and its body is guarded?"

"Guarding the corpse? The situation you described won't exist."

Ye Shen waved his small round fan and said, "Conceptual life will be resurrected from the Great Holy Spirit. Although its power will be greatly weakened, it can still choose to project itself to any place where its prototype is."

"If you don't want to, you can stay in the Great Holy Spirit. The only flaw there is that it is completely isolated from the outside world and is absolutely safe. Hotpot is still sleeping in the Great Holy Spirit."

"Some concepts of life are weak or tired of the outside world, so they choose to sleep." Zhou Yi had an idea in his mind.

He asked: "Is there any connection between the one who killed the Earth God and the Black Emperor?"

"Of course."

Ye Shen said seriously: "That guy is highly bound to the Black Emperor. He is trying to rule and subdue other conceptual lives. The Earth God is one of them that cannot be avoided."

"Never took action against you?" Zhou Yi was curious.

"My situation is special. I am not actually a local conceptual life form. Since he cannot affect my prototype, the Black Emperor is relatively restrained towards me."

"From what I know, the Black Emperor is currently focusing on the consciousness side. He is trying to integrate enough conceptual life there to expand his empire in another way. He is an ambitious emperor."

Ye Shen suddenly changed the subject: "As for the [Floating Heart] matter, is there any chance for our church to get involved?"

Zhou Yi looked strange: "You are a church... technical equipment has nothing to do with you, right?"

“The church is about the number of people.”

Ye Shen said positively: "The Ye Shen Church has more than 1.6 million believers in total. We must also strive for progress. Otherwise, how can a lifeless church attract young people to join?"

Zhou Yi thought for a moment and asked: "Do you have a foundation in technology?"

"No."

"Then don't force it..."

"We have to get together now, let's get people in first." Ye Shen emphasized practicality.

Zhou Yi brought up an idea he had long ago: "In the Age of Gods, there was actually a very mature method to have a large group of followers."

Ye Shen's face suddenly became serious: "Please speak."

“Creating an idol.”

Zhou Yi said succinctly: "The old humans of the Age of Gods would create some of the new humans into idols, usually boys and girls with good looks and temperament, and then package them to perform activities such as singing, dancing, and acting."

"Humans are visual animals, and lust is natural. It is always a pleasure to meet good-looking boys and girls. Then find things that everyone likes to see and do these things, and you can get everyone's attention and love..."

Ye Shen frowned slightly: "You mean... I should also package some people like this?"

"It's just an immature idea of mine, for reference only."

Yagami touched his lower lip with his finger: "What everyone likes most is to gain wealth, power and satisfy lust."

“The church itself doesn’t have much money, and it can’t give it to more people.”

"Lust...it's not good to open a brothel."

Her eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes, I know."

"Selling church tickets."

"Do you know the sacrificial voucher?"

Zhou Yi shook his head. It was the first time he heard this name.

"The church will give out this kind of thing to friends outside the church who can be of great help. They can use it, and even if they don't join the church, they can get my guidance and conversation. But this kind of thing is rarely issued, because I am already very busy dealing with believers and don't have time to deal with these things."

Ye Shen said excitedly: "But now I have thought of a way."

"Just like you said, I will recruit some good-looking boys and girls, have them become sons and daughters of gods, and then have them go out and collect donations and join in. If the donations reach a certain amount, they can exchange it for a voucher for offering sacrifices to the gods."

"The offering ticket can gain an audience with me."

"In addition to solving their doubts, I can also satisfy their pursuit of wealth, power and lust. But of course it's not real. I just slightly influence their consciousness so that they can achieve what they want in the illusion, whether it's becoming a hero or a king, being rich enough to rival an entire country, having many wives and concubines, or even fighting against the whole world... It's easy for me to do this."

Zhou Yi was stunned: "If we do this, it will make the user addicted, right?"

This reminded him of the data dopamine in the Star Hub.

"This is a life simulation. The more pleasure and excitement you have, the more depression and emptiness you will have. As for whether it will become addictive, that is something they need to consider."

Ye Shen smiled and waved his round fan: "This is a really good idea! Zhou Yi, you are really a genius, this idea is worth a thousand gold! Our church is saved!"

"I'm leaving now. Bye."

After saying this, the person disappeared without a trace.

The hot pot is still steaming.

Zhou Yi couldn't help but look at Yuan Xiao who was standing beside him: "Will this idea of mine cause any problems?"

"Please don't mind it."

The angel of death said: "Desire exists by itself and will not disappear just because it is not talked about and achieved."

"In my opinion, it would be a good thing if the Night God Church could release the desires and resentments of some people in this harmless way."

"Today, human beings are still fragile lives. Allowing them to experience more joy will be beneficial to the continuation and stability of the entire group."

Zhou Yi nodded.

This is true.

Hard times always call for some sweets.

This entertainment program is handed over to the Church of Night!
