Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead -
Chapter 1423 - 993, Goddess Visits
Kim Zhi He is quite professional.
When she realized that the three were not actually selling comics but planning to spread faith.
She gave some personal suggestions.
In terms of the story, she leaned towards a salvation route for better promotional effects.
Storytelling is a skill.
Some aspects, viewed from the protagonist's perspective and slightly embellished, can change the readers' mindset.
Therefore, Kim Zhi He believed that letting readers understand through the story was not a difficult task.
However, the only thing to consider was the cultural literacy of the citizens; comics also need text, and it would be problematic if some people couldn't read at all.
The conclusion of their discussion was to make the story simpler, ideally understandable without reading any text.
After discussing for a while, they roughly laid out their plan.
The remaining tasks were for Kim Zhi He to write the story and then pass it to the three for content confirmation.
As for compensation, Fang Hao was quite generous.
If her story is approved, she would be rewarded with an orange weapon, and upon subsequent publication of the comics, she would be paid accordingly.
This motivated Kim Zhi He greatly, as the orders from Fang Hao would set her up for life.
Soon, the news that the illustrator came to the territory spread throughout the main city.
In their spare time, a group of maids surrounded Kim Zhi He, asking her various questions about painting.
As well as about several comics that had stopped updating, the subsequent content, and reasons for the discontinuation.
Kim Zhi He felt the enthusiasm of the crowd but was still somewhat astonished.
Because she discovered that these young, beautiful, and cutely styled maids were all heroes.
Although they were only green heroes, the fact that nearly a hundred of them were heroes led her to speculate.
Heroes could be mass-produced here at Fang Hao's.
It was terrifying.
With high-level gods and the ability to mass-produce heroes beneath them.
This power likely already surpassed those original native forces.
It also solidified her determination to cling to this powerful influence.
Hanging on to this powerhouse, she would be his leading illustrator, at least free from life's worries.
"What do you want to see?" Anjia asked.
Kim Zhi He thought for a moment and said, "I want to see the statues of several divine beings."
"Oh, the Temple is this way. I'll take you there," Anjia said as she took out the Shepherd's Flute and blew.
The next second, a Giant Lizard pulled a bronze chariot and flew over from the sky.
Anjia took her onto the bronze chariot and with a scream, they soared into the sky.
In the lord's hall.
Dragon Queen asked, "Do you think comics can help collect faith?"
Fang Hao nodded, "In this world, the gap between divine beings and mortals is too vast, other than the leaders of various races and priests, nobody knows whether gods truly exist; they blindly follow the faith passed down through generations, making the efficiency of faith collection very low."
After taking a sip of tea, he continued, "We are not like them; we are mortal realm divine beings, we need to change the approach, aim for a more people-friendly manner, to make them feel we are not so far from them."
Dragon Queen rubbed her forehead while Rolana had already started looking at a new comic book.
Fang Hao directly said, "Let's give it a try, it's just spending a bit of money, and besides, we aren't short of it now."
Both nodded, without any objections.
The matter of divine comics was thus settled.
Fang Hao had many ideas, trying them was not a big deal.
But the content still needed careful consideration.
Oversee it.
And Kim Zhi He temporarily settled down in the main city.
To prepare for writing the story.
...
The next day, morning.
The sky was clear and cloudless.
Fang Hao headed to Troop Hiding Cave, further increased the number of troops and replaced some equipment.
Preparing for the upcoming encounter with Slaughter God and to meet the combat needs of the Undead Desert.
As he exited the Troop Hiding Cave and hadn't yet returned to the lord's residence.
He saw a Harpy descend from the sky.
After making a greeting, she directly said, "My lord, the patrol team found a human female Priest wanting to meet you."
Hmm?
A human Priest found her way here?
The outskirts of the main city often saw humans, Orcs, or some traveling merchants pass by.
But generally, they just made an inquiry and could be let go if there was nothing significant.
This time it was unusual for someone to actively seek him out, and even tracking down this location.
"What kind of Priest?"
"She should be a Priest of the Goddess of Harvest."
Goddess of Harvest?
In the main city's Temple, the only preserved statue of a foreign god was that of the Goddess of Harvest.
Could it be related to the Goddess of Harvest?
Thinking it over, he decided to let her come here to see her purpose.
"Bring her to the lord's hall then."
"Yes, my lord."
The Harpy flew away while Fang Hao also headed towards the lord's residence.
Lord's Residence Hall.
Fang Hao sat in the hall, sipping the prepared fruit tea.
Soon, faint footsteps resounded from outside the door, and a Skeleton soldier escorted a human female Priest in.
But the moment Fang Hao saw her, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Blinding divine light.
Indeed, it confirmed his speculation.
A normal Priest wouldn't take the trouble to find him; if she did so, it meant there was a deity behind this seeking to see him.
Just like how he had sought out the God of the Ocean previously.
The female Priest before him was a mature, charming woman dressed in a wheat-yellow priest robe embroidered with patterns of wheat ears, flowers, and sunlight.
"Hello, God of Storms." The woman's face showed a gentle smile, unlike other deities' distant and stern demeanor.
This title, he didn't know where it came from.
But indeed, his divine image included motifs related to storms.
"Please sit, Goddess," Fang Hao gestured for her to sit down.
The Skeleton outside went to the cellar and brought up fruit tea and pastries.
Fang Hao continued to ask, "Goddess, what brings you here this time?"
The Goddess leaned her wooden staff to one side, picked up the fruit tea, took a sip as if savouring the earthly delights.
After setting down the teacup, she continued, "The territory of the Orc God, it's yours now?"
Fang Hao's eyes narrowed slightly, surprised that she knew about this.
"What do you mean?"
"The God of War's statues can no longer gather faith, and all the statues in the temples have been replaced with yours," the Goddess of Harvest continued.
So they deduced it from the statues.
Thinking about it, it wasn't really surprising.
Deities rarely intervene in the mortal world, but special pieces of information are sometimes relayed back by their followers.
Her guessing somewhat, actually wasn't a big deal.
Fang Hao simply nodded and said, "Yes, the God of War is dead, now the Orc territory is under our management."
The Goddess of Harvest showed no surprise, just picked up a piece of pastry and gently chewed on it in her mouth.
Then she said, "How do you plan to manage, especially regarding the worship of deities?"
Fang Hao speculated about her purpose; she surely hadn't come all this way just to enjoy tea and pastries.
After all, it was about continuing to collect faith.
It was a good opportunity to forge an alliance, "Within the sphere of influence, special management will be executed, and the establishment of statues will be strictly controlled, thus making the faith more unified."
The Goddess of Harvest looked at him, "Oh, then I wonder, do I qualify for that?"
"If the Goddess wishes to join the alliance, naturally you qualify to erect statues, plus you will gain several reliable allies by your side," Fang Hao smiled at her.
"Your alliance? I wonder, who else is in it?"
Fang Hao replied, "I can't tell you the specifics yet, only that there are higher and middle-ranking deities involved, very reliable, no need to worry about betrayal from those allies."
For the Goddess of Harvest, Fang Hao indeed wanted to win her over.
She looks just like a deity enhancing agriculture and production, but it's not that simple.
While different races have their factions, all are allowed to establish a divinity for the Goddess of Harvest.
With followers everywhere and involving all races, her divinity level is absolutely not low.
"The higher-ranking deity you referred to, it isn't you, is it?"
"Of course not."
"What do I need to do if I join the alliance?" the Goddess of Harvest looked up and asked.
Fang Hao continued, "Territorial development and protection, after joining the alliance, you can't focus solely on collecting faith, but also need to participate in the development, construction within the territory, or some battles targeted at other deities."
These words made the Goddess of Harvest pause for a moment.
Well, that even comes with job responsibilities.
"I need to think about it, I can't give you an answer right now," the Goddess of Harvest didn't refuse.
"Certainly, joining the alliance benefits both of us, please take your time to consider."
The Goddess of Harvest nodded, then continued, "The body I've descended into will stay here for a while, and I will give you an answer in a few days."
Fang Hao nodded, "Yes, I will arrange accommodation for her, rest assured on that issue."
"Okay."
The Goddess of Harvest agreed, and the divine light on her instantly vanished.
She directly left the body.
The mature woman Priest then immediately stood up to salute, "Greetings, Divine Spirit."
"What is your name?"
"Klayla!"
"I will arrange accommodations for you, during this time, please settle here comfortably," Fang Hao said.
"Thank you, Divine Spirit."
Fang Hao called outside for Nisbit, asking him to lead the Priest to Eira to arrange a room.
...
In the afternoon, Fang Hao informed the Dragon Queen and Rolana about his dealings with the Goddess of Harvest.
Regarding the Goddess's unexpected visit, both showed great interest.
The Goddess of Harvest is highly regarded among all mortal races, cherished by both dignitaries and commonfolk alike.
Therefore, they also welcomed her joining, depending on how the Goddess of Harvest chose.
The group chatted.
The Skeleton merchant Doujin, carrying a brocade box, came in.
After bowing he said, "Sir, Fire Hammer Shop has sent over the repaired equipment."
Fang Hao's eyes sharpened, it had finally arrived.
"To Dragon Queen."
Doujin handed the brocade box to Dragon Queen, then stepped out again.
Fang Hao then directly said, "Call the four sisters over, prepare to attack the Divine Territory."
