Chapter 499: Chapter 39Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
What Javier did now was the same as what the G.o.ddess of b.u.mper Harvest had done before. In order to ensure the success of the G.o.d Ceremony, Javier chose to separate his G.o.d’s Kingdom, the Joy of the Wild, from the Nation of Light. The Nation of Light was the unified G.o.d’s Kingdom of the Human G.o.d System where Javier had originally lived. Now, the Joy of the Wild became a self-governed kingdom, and it was moved to a place that was close to the Main Plane.
By doing that, Javier could avoid being affected by the power of beliefs of the Human G.o.d System, and he could avoid damaging his divine independence as a follower. He could also absorb and utilize the power of belief in the mortal world to the greatest extent and reduce loss.
Of course, what he did was definitely dangerous. The painful lesson of the G.o.ddess of b.u.mper Harvest had happened not long ago. She had much more power and more acc.u.mulation of the church than Javier, but she had still died.
Even though Javier received the sealed G.o.d’s Kingdom of the G.o.d of Wine, without reliable bodyguards, he wouldn’t dare to do what he did now. If a child was walking in the street alone with a lot of money, the child would be seeking for death.
But now Javier had a different idea.
As long as the bodyguard group was strong enough, nothing else was a problem!
As for the strength of the bodyguard group, who could compare with him?
“Javier, this time, the escort team that I arranged for you is strong enough. If you still can’t make it, then you really can’t do it,” Sui Xiong said.
Just as Javier was full of confidence, Sui Xiong was secretly complaining.
Before s.p.a.ce-traveling, Sui Xiong had loved to read network novels. When the authors had described big scenes in the background of mythology in those novels, most of them had liked to quote the plots in the cla.s.sic story, Journey to the West. There were divine troops descending from heaven, Four Heavenly Kings, Eighteen Arhats and so on.
Now the bodyguard group of Sui Xiong was similar to that formation. His group was even more powerful than that formation.
There were four great Divine Powers: Mid-level Divine Powers, low-level Divine Powers and weak Divine Powers. They added up to more than 18, and the number of powerful Oracles was far more than 100,000. In the face of such a group, even if the Monkey King came here, it wouldn’t be easy for him to win.
Of course, if the Monkey King really traveled here, he would definitely be invited by Sui Xiong to drink and chat. Would he be free to fight with Javier?
Was Javier that great? Was it deserving for a big man to attack him?
Of course not.
Sui Xiong was looking around with a smile. In fact, he was complaining about his friend with disrespect secretly in his heart.
It was rare to send such a powerful group. If Garen of the League of Legends didn’t jump out of the bush… Sorry. If a fool didn’t jump out of the bush to ask for trouble, then the work done by everyone would be useless. They would be leering at a blind man!
That was not good. Just for the sake of doing something useful, someone had to jump out for them to beat!
However, that wasn’t something that Sui Xiong could decide. Although he hoped that some evil guy would stand out and yell, “Javier! Today is your death day,” those evil G.o.ds obviously had no reason to do what he hoped for. In particular, it would be extremely dangerous to do what Sui Xiong hoped for. It was 99% possible that the evil G.o.ds would die on the spot, and the remaining one percent would be hunted afterwards. Was there a big difference between “punis.h.i.+ng them according to military law immediately” and “locking them up and punis.h.i.+ng them afterwards”? Not at all.
Therefore, Sui Xiong waited for a long time, but Garen who was supposed to jump out of the bush didn’t come.
In the Joy of the Wild, the ceremony of Javier was coming to an end.
In order to guarantee the success rate of becoming a G.o.d, he arranged a lengthy ceremony. The ceremony was cruelly long. It took almost two days to complete the whole process, and it also needed a lot of Divine Power. In general, he spent so much time and Divine Power on this ceremony because he could prepare with all his strength without fearing of attacks from behind. Otherwise, Garen wouldn’t need to jump out of a bush. Even if a sledgehammer fell from the sky, Javier would be smashed into Javier paste.
Javier paste sounded cute. However, if Javier paste meant meat paste instead of a nickname, it wouldn’t be appropriate for people to continue to talk about.
All in all, Javier didn’t encounter Garen who was supposed to jump out of a bush, nor did a sledgehammer fall from the sky, so he completed the lengthy ceremony successfully.
At the moment when the ceremony was completed, all his believers in the mortal world received a clear omen. So they knelt, cheering together. They praised the name of Javier, singing a song of praise for him.
The song had nothing to do with seriousness. It was dissolute, lazy and careless.
With the sound of the song, the power of belief rose from everywhere in the Main Plane to the Joy of the Wild. The power of belief that came from Void City was the most abundant t, especially from several large hotels, restaurants and some other entertainment venues. The power of belief formed into light beams.
However, compared to the ceremony held by the G.o.ddess of b.u.mper Harvest before, his ceremony was still a small one.
Seeing that the power of beliefs flying into the Joy of the Wild, Sui Xiong whispered, curling his lips, “So small. Javier, why don’t you create some big news?”
He really wronged Javier. Javier certainly wanted to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create a big scene and some big news! However, he couldn’t!
He only had a few believers. His church was small, and his own strength was not very strong.
Fortunately, it didn’t matter that the scene was small. As long as the ceremony was successful, everything would be all right.
It was like if someone wanted to kill a warrior, he wouldn’t need a large troop. He would just need an arrow.
The scale of Javier’s ceremony was not very large, and the scene was not as big as that of the G.o.ddess of b.u.mper Harvest. However, in terms of effect, it was much better than the one held by the G.o.ddess of b.u.mper Harvest.
The key to the problem lay in the item that was used to help create a G.o.d—the sealed G.o.d’s Kingdom of the G.o.d of Wine.
The candidate that Javier had carefully selected was a little pygmy girl called Rein Dinger. She had been born in a small aristocratic family. She had been keen on drinking and holding wine parties before her death, but she hadn’t pursued luxury. She had loved the feeling of everyone being drunk and then giggling together with no regrets left in their hearts.
Since 15 years old, she had kept this habit for 30 years. That time, she had been drunk at a harvest festival and then had never woken up.
If such a person was in the G.o.d’s Kingdom of Sui Xiong, she might be a clown. However, in the G.o.d’s Kingdom of Javier, she was respected by everyone because of her cheerful style and bold att.i.tude.
When Javier had considered who should inherit the G.o.d’s Kingdom of the G.o.d of Wine and become the next G.o.d of Wine, she had been chosen after many discussions.
Rein was not worried or upset about the fact that she was going to become a G.o.d. Instead, she felt that this might be her destined mission.
If she was going to become another G.o.d, she would be uneasy, and she would be worried about whether she would be competent. However, she was going to become the G.o.d of Wine.
Well, was there anything more suitable for her than this? Was there anything easier than loving wine?
At least for her, the answer was no.
Therefore, at the end of the ceremony, she was wearing a confident smile. She walked to the center of the magic array, holding the G.o.d’s Kingdom of the G.o.d of Wine that was sealed in the shape of a gemstone.
“I’m ready,” she said.
“Since you’re ready, let’s get started,” Javier said with a smile.
He didn’t mention anything like “relax” or “believe in yourself.” As Rein believed in herself, Javier also believed in her.
If she couldn’t become the G.o.d of Wine, then no one in the world could become the G.o.d of Wine. At least that was what Javier believed.
Javier was gazing at Rein with a smile. Under his gaze, Rein nodded. She cut her palm with a special ceremony knife. Red blood flowed out of her reshaped flesh, and it dyed the jewel-like G.o.d’s Kingdom.
The next moment, the gemstone cracked. The light between illusion and reality enveloped her.
The G.o.ds, including Javier, were relieved at a glance.
As estimated in advance, the relations.h.i.+p between Rein and the priesthood of Wine was very good. People even had the feeling that she was born to be the G.o.d of Wine.
As soon as the seal was removed, the G.o.d’s Kingdom of the G.o.d of Wine between illusion and reality immediately accepted her existence and quickly merged with her.
Now, as long as there was no accident, after a while, the mortal Rein Dinger would become history. Rein Dinger, the new generation of the G.o.d of Wine would step into the Pantheon temple. She would continue the happy wine party that she hadn’t ended during her lifetime.
Javier looked at the scene with satisfaction. He nodded, and a person wrapped in a white robe was called out. The whole body of that person was wrapped, so people couldn’t tell the gender from their appearance.
“Next, I will transfer the priesthood of Celebration to you. As for the priesthood of Pleasure, you have to fight for it on your own,” Javier said seriously. “As the previous generation of the G.o.d of Celebration and Pleasure, I must warn you. Pay attention to mastering the principles of faith, philosophy, and self. Don’t make yourself fall into the exhaustion and dizziness of chasing after celebration blindly.”
The person in the white robe didn’t speak and just nodded to show awareness.
He, or she, was one of the few Holy Spirits of Javier. Even at this moment, Javier still carefully hid that person’s true ident.i.ty. He didn’t allow anyone to know that.
After completing the final entrustment, Javier held another ceremony—a very small ceremony. It was a ceremony that could only be held when a G.o.d was completely willing to hold it—priesthood separation.
