Chapter 355: Chapter 344 You Must Sever the Connection with the Holy Spirit! (2nd Update) Chapter 355: Chapter 344 You Must Sever the Connection with the Holy Spirit! (2nd Update) “What?”

Jiang Qiao had thought that as a character of the Knight of Black Ash, he would declare, “Our goal is to conquer thousands of worlds!” “Let the Devouring God be great again!”–phrases typical of a war fanatic’s radical dialogue.

From Queen Mei’s description, the Knight of Black Ash’s past duty was to guard the frontier… Yet, beyond guarding the frontier, the Knight of Black Ash’s methods against external enemies were very cruel; burning, killing, and plundering were his basic tactics.

But now, the stance the Knight of Black Ash revealed to Jiang Qiao was… poaching from other gods?

“I have engaged in poaching before, but this is not the main focus of the Holy Spirit at this stage… to put it in a way you can understand, it’s not the main focus for the camp of the Devouring God either. And if you want to acquire the power of other gods, why not just devour those gods directly?”

Jiang Qiao’s main objective at this stage was still to collect Divine Fragments. Originally, recruiting Queen Mei was also for the sake of Divine Fragments, as were the Magic Thieves of Biland Island who aimed to rule Biland Island.

The Divine Chosen Ones of the inner world still pledged allegiance to their gods, and Jiang Qiao didn’t have the energy to recruit them… besides, this was not an easy task.

“Sigel has described our current situation to me, the scattered Divine Fragments, and those of us known as descendants,” Black Ash, no… General Black Ash extended his little hand that resembled a twig and broke a pancake into two pieces and said, “But compared to restoring our homeland and saving our kin, what I now desire even more is revenge, against the gods, against the Abyss, against obliteration… the former allies, now the betrayers.”

The fall of the former Devouring God and the disintegration of his world hinted at a great conspiracy which Jiang Qiao could perceive, but the current issue was…

“Is the revenge you’re talking about just poaching?”

To Jiang Qiao, his words still echoed Queen Mei’s description of a war fanatic, but the method of the Knight of Black Ash’s revenge seemed a bit… cute. How is poaching others’ corners considered revenge? Shouldn’t it be about annihilating entire families?

“Some weaker gods might be devoured,” Black Ash said after stuffing half of the pancake into his mouth and chewing it up. “But another part that has transformed into laws, thoughts, and concepts–these gods cannot be harmed, we can only harm their followers…”

“That’s too complex, simplify it. What are the grounds and the effect of wanting to poach the corners of various gods?” Jiang Qiao interrupted what seemed like the plotting of a massive conspiracy by this ‘lump of coal’.

“Abyss.” The Knight of Black Ash cooperated by directly stating his idea, “After experiencing the infection by the Abyss, I had a thought. The Abyss God in itself is formless; it’s more like a virus, rooting within the host’s body, anyone contaminated by the Abyss becomes a follower of the Abyss, so… I was thinking… proxies, we could mimic the spreading method of the Abyss.”

“The Abyss… wait a minute…”

Jiang Qiao took out a fragment of the Divine Fragment he had obtained from the Knight of Black Ash. The matriarch of Black Tide Island obviously poured her heart into using the Power of the Abyss to drive the Knight of Black Ash.

This fragment of the Divine Fragment contained strong Power of the Abyss, which could potentially trigger a horrific flesh plague or some other calamity in any world it was carelessly thrown into.

But for Hai Lan now, it was merely an extra few dishes in a grand feast.

“Proxy, if you rely on this residual Power of the Abyss and mimic its terrifying corruptive power and life-distorting force, it might… be rather unrealistic,” Sigel appeared to have a bit of research on the Power of the Abyss.

“I have a plan. The NPC interaction mechanism on Black Tide Island seriously needs some improvement,” Hai Lan said.

Jiang Qiao probably thought about the maintenance of the game system this time… In addition to launching the game store function, there was another new system to be introduced.

It shouldn’t be called a new system, but rather the application of Biland Island’s NPC Affinity System to all the NPCs on Black Tide Island.

Originally, the NPC Affinity System on Biland Island was built on the premise that the Magic Thieves of Biland Island, from body to soul, had been ‘devoured’ by Hai Lan. Only then could the system read their emotions and, depending on the quality of their feelings, produce little hearts as rewards for players.

However, the planar pirates, gods, and breeders of Black Tide Island were all neutral units. They were not followers of Hai Lan, nor would they believe in Hai Lan.

Jiang Qiao certainly didn’t believe that the group of planar pirates would worship a useless goddess who only knew how to eat potato chips on the couch.

But… what about the Divine Chosen Ones?

Those who showed bravery on the battlefield, accomplished various side quests for them, and worked diligently–what about them?

“Hey, Proxy, you wouldn’t want the Divine Chosen Ones to… lick those ‘gods,’ would you?” Knight Wasp overheard and used a very modern and fashionable term.

Because the NPC Affinity Collection System existed on Biland Island, the Divine Chosen Ones were very kind to the NPCs in their own strongholds.

Since these NPCs were already considered the children of the Devouring God, Knight Wasp thought it was normal for the Divine Chosen Ones to be good to them. But why should those on Black Tide Island who might become enemies deserve such treatment?

“Do you know where the power of gods comes from? It comes from the faith of beings, and faith includes many aspects–admiration, liking, reverence, appreciation, recognition… This is the source of a god’s power. Each Divine Chosen One is essentially a clone of the Devouring God. To put it directly, to put it directly, if someone on Black Tide Island becomes a follower of a Divine Chosen One, they essentially become my follower too,” Jiang Qiao said.

“What’s the point of doing this?” Knight Wasp was more in favor of killing everything alive on Black Tide Island, especially the gods.

“Uh… sustainable development? It’s about time we gathered some more followers. But getting them one by one is too slow. If we could directly pull a ready-made god into our camp and use them as a solar panel, not to mention the planar pirates… They also represent a significant combat force. But all of this is predicated on the Divine Chosen Ones being able to ‘bewitch’ those gods and pirates,” Jiang Qiao explained.

Jiang Qiao had felt a severe shortage of Creation Energy in the campaign on Black Tide Island, where the difficulty was too great, and players died too frequently. Moreover, Jiang Qiao needed to invest Creation Energy in the maintenance of the game world itself and the crafting of various new equipment and items.

Now, Jiang Qiao possessed only three hundred thousand points of Creation Energy, with the net daily income of Creation Energy having plummeted from thirty thousand points before Black Tide Island was opened to just around five thousand points.

With this maintenance, Jiang Qiao was confident in doubling the server’s players, but likewise, the expenditure of Creation Energy would also double.

Using various methods of devastation to extract Creation Energy was ultimately not a long-term solution. Jiang Qiao still chose the path of sustainable development–first having the Divine Chosen Ones ‘corrupt’ a deity, then capturing them to use as a solar panel.

To summarize briefly… the NPC affinity system on Black Tide Island would be launched after this maintenance. The gameplay of conquering NPCs would be initiated, and the rest… Jiang Qiao would watch as players from all walks displayed their talents, seeing if they could explode the affinity of that one key NPC.
