Chapter 1180: Knowledge
Although Big Druid Beulah didn’t understand why Abel would want to know about G.o.ds after he became a Grandmaster alchemist, he had to repay his favor.
“Grandmaster Bennett. I won’t hold back as long as it does not involve the top secrets of the temple!” She smiled after she took a seat.
With Abel’s current status as a grandmaster and a headmaster of honor, he had a right to know about the secrets of this world.
“Big druid Beulah, can you tell me something about the creation of G.o.ds?” Abel asked respectfully.
“Grandmaster, the creation of a G.o.d is forbidden in this world, you…” Big Druid Beulah paused.
“Big Druid Beulah, I just want to understand. I’m not planning to become a G.o.d!” Abel laughed.
“Grandmaster, I can only tell you things according to the legends of the past! The first step is to obtain the body of G.o.d, the second is to create a domain of G.o.d. Only a G.o.d with a domain can be considered a real G.o.d!” Big Druid Beulah explained.
Abel knew his question was not easy to answer, considering the Wizard Union’s att.i.tude towards G.o.ds. What Big Druid Beulah told him was already a lot.
“I heard all holy objects are made by G.o.d. Do you know how they are made?” Abel changed a question.
“Grandmaster, some books have mentioned the formula for holy objects, but their creation requires the energy of G.o.d, and most G.o.ds will only make the ones they are skilled at.
“The materials they used are simple, but after going through the energy of G.o.d, they will obtain a special power unlike anything in the world!
“Holy Objects are the highest rewards aged will give to their followers. It is a reflection of love!” Big Druid Beulah explained.
She believed Abel was asking this question because he wanted to strengthen his alchemy skills further, but it was not applicable to him. At least that’s what she thought.
“I have another question. How do you connect a statue of G.o.d to G.o.d?” Abel asked. It was the question he cared about the most.
“After a statue of G.o.d is built, it needs to go through an ignition!” Big Druid Beulah knew about this very well.
“How do you do that?’ Abel followed.
Big Druid Beulah hesitated because it was one of the inherited knowledge of the temple.
However, a statue of G.o.d needed a G.o.d to function at the end of the day, so she thought it probably wouldn’t hurt telling Abel about it as a return of the favor.
“Grandmaster, I’ll be on my way now!’ She stood up and bowed.
Abel was caught off guard, but he soon realized that Big Druid Beulah left over a lambskin book behind on the chair.
“Big Druid Beulah, I am very thankful for your visit. Please take good care of Lorraine!” Abel knew her intention, so he smiled and bowed as well.
After he sent off Big Druid Beulah, he picked up the book she left over.
It was a beautifully written book. It was the knowledge guide of the temple. Most of the ones he saw were like this.
The book was a glorification of G.o.d on the surface, but the details were hidden within.
Big Druid Beulah vowed to never tell anyone about G.o.d’s information; however, for the Sainte’s boyfriend, who also did a great favor for her, she had no choice.
Therefore, she decided to just leave the temple guide over so she didn’t have to break her vow.
The book began with a song for G.o.d, and that was where the ignition began.
It was then followed by the moves, music, clothes, number of attendees, location, as well as all kinds of things that didn’t seem necessary.
After he finished the book, he came to a conclusion. The process of ignition was basically by connecting a G.o.d’s power of the will to the statue.
Everything else was basically nonsense—just some ceremony to mask suspicions.
The process of ignition was simple. The true challenge lied in the creation of the statue, which needed many valuable materials.
Some of the most important ones were exclusive to the temple.
However, that did not apply to Abel. He already had a ready-made statue.
He put away the book and teleported to his statue underground.
He carefully transferred his consciousness to his druid soul. However, he did not emerge with his angel body. Instead, he used the special ability of his altered druid soil and reached out a strand of soul energy towards the statue.
It was what he understood from the book. Although it also demanded a set amount of preachers and a speaker of G.o.d to host a ceremony for guiding the process, Abel had no need for that.
The only problem was that his druid soul would be considered as a G.o.d-level G.o.d after merging with the crystal angel statue.
However, the statue soon began to glow. His druid soul was qualified.
The statue in front of him suddenly became even closer to him than the one he saw in the central temple of the Holy Kingdom. It was almost like the body of his druid soul.
It didn’t seem like much at first, but he soon realized he could see the external world through the statue as he s.h.i.+fted his consciousness onto it.
With this knowledge, he finally made a decision. He would never go into a temple with an alive G.o.d ever again. Standing in front of a statue of G.o.d was basically being looked at by a G.o.d.
In the past, he could stand confidently in front of the G.o.ddess of the moon, even with his many little secrets, but not with his angel body.
It was something even a G.o.d would be interested in.
Abel connected to his preachers through the crystal angel statue and sent out a command.
Just like the internet of his past life, his followers could connect to the statue through the preachers.
Soon, he sensed stands of faith connecting to the statue. Each of them signified a follower.
He sighed at how convent this was. He would no longer lose faith in his followers even if he went into the Dark World.
But it was also at that moment he realized how trivial his past efforts were compared to the faith of an actual G.o.d.
Just a holy crystal alone had more power of G.o.d than him.
Even with 10,000 followers in the Holy Kingdom, it would take them at least 100 years to form a holy crystal.
This was how far behind he was, and It was also at that moment he finally understood how valuable that box of holy crystal in the holy kingdom temple was.
He suddenly thought about the Barbarians in the Battlecry plateau. Should he find a statue for Doff the Beamon to acc.u.mulate faith as well?
He no longer needed those Barbarians’ faith to alter Doff’s body. Instead, 10 holy crystals should do the trick much faster.
However, getting a statue was no easy task. He only got lucky. There were not many statues around. Even the ones in the Battlecry city’s G.o.d of war temple were destroyed or taken by the Wizard Union long ago.
If not, he wouldn’t need to go through this much ha.s.sle.
Suddenly, a place came to mind.
The big church in the Rogue Encampment! There were many statues there leftover by h.e.l.l with no owner. All he needed was to reignite them!
Of course, that was only if statues in the Dark World could work in this world. But still, it shouldn’t hurt to try.
He opened the portal and directly found a perfect statue from the temple of the Dark World.
The statue was not as tall as the ones in the central continent. It was about human size, but you could still sense the extraordinary material used to make it, even after countless years of corrosion from h.e.l.l.
Just from this, you could tell how advanced the Dark World was.
Abel never paid much attention to statues, but ever since his angel body made contact with them, he truly got a sense of how powerful they were.
The face of the statue Abel got was a little distorted, but there was no sign of damage on its body.
Still, Abel brought it back to the Rogue Encampment without thinking too much. After all, the G.o.ds of the Dark World had faded long ago after the endless battle between heaven and h.e.l.l.
Almost all beings in the Dark World were killed. After tens of thousands of years, even the name of G.o.ds had been long forgotten.
Abel then summoned Doff and reached a strand of its soul out towards the statue through the soul chain.
Suddenly, the statue began to change.
It was originally in the shape of a human body, but soon it turned into a little Beamon after Doff’s soul entered.
Abel looked at the 10 meters tall Doff and that 2 meters tall statue of a Beamon. It looked exactly like a carbon copy of Doff. It even had the armor and ancient totem on its hand.
Normally a statue would be bigger than the actual G.o.d, but Doff was the opposite.
Abel put Doff back in the Monster Ring. Little did Doff know, it had already taken its biggest step to becoming a G.o.d.
Doff had an entire race as followers. If the Barbarians had a larger population, the Wizard Union would never let Abel take advantage like this.
