Chapter 22

“It seems that we can have a living sacrifice.”

Lorne’s eyes were abnormally bright.

A living sacrifice was different from an ordinary sacrifice.

Its requirements were even stricter and it usually took 10 years for it to be carried out.

However, if it was forcefully carried out, it would directly put the lives of all the believers in danger.

And as the name implied, a living sacrifice was sacrificing a living creature.

After being sacrificed, the living creature would become a disciple that has a higher status than the fanatics.

A disciple could bring 100 points of Power of Faith to their god every day.

The higher the quality, the higher the increase in the Power of Faith.

For example, an elite grade disciple could bring 200 points of Power of Faith to their god every day, which would be equivalent to the amount that 200 cursory believers would bring.

Furthermore, disciples could listen to their god’s commands directly. Even if they left their divine kingdom, they could still command from afar.

“A living sacrifice should trigger a “100 times reward” booster, right?”

“When that time comes, will I be able to obtain a transcendent-level disciple?”

Lorne began to ponder.

A transcendent level believer could produce four times the amount of faith, which could provide Lorne with 400 points of Power of Faith every day.

In addition, transcendent level believers could quickly raise their quality and the amount of Power of Faith they could produce every day would increase.

With that, just a single believer could bring Lorne more than 150,000 points of Power of Faith every year. It was exhilarating!

However, before the living sacrifice, Lorne still needed to recruit these kobold captives as believers.

After that, he would use them to carry out the winged dragon’s living sacrifice ceremony.

After all, the orcs already went through a sacrifice, and it hadn’t even been a year yet. If they were to go through another sacrifice, their spirits may be harmed.

The orcs didn’t have high intelligence, to begin with. If they were affected again, they would probably degenerate into wild beasts.

“Let’s treat them first.”

To prevent the kobolds from escaping, Lorne specifically asked the orcs to focus on their attacks.

Therefore, most of the kobolds were now seriously injured and could not even move.

Lorne did not think too much about it and used his Power of Faith right away.

Power of Faith could dispel the injuries suffered by the believers. The amount of energy consumed depended on the condition of the injuries.

However, Lorne did not heal the kobolds all the way.

He only restored their basic ability to move.

The orc chief then instructed the orcs to drive the kobolds to the square in front of the temple.

“Quick!”

“Hurry up!”

“The fake god is dead. You are all slaves of the Monde tribe!”

“If you want to rid yourself of your slave status, you have to believe in our god and become his believers!”

The orcs pushed the kobolds and brought them to the front of the temple.

This group of kobolds had lost their faith and, with the threat of the orcs, they were all very obedient.

More than a hundred kobolds faced the temple and trembled on the ground.

The orcs surrounded them and also prostrated themselves.

The orc chief knelt in front of the group and began to pray.

“Great God of Thunder and Fire, it is you who brought us light, gave us hope, and illuminated our future.”

“You are the guardian of the Monde tribe.”

“You are our faith.”

“You are the supreme existence.”

Under the leadership of the orc chief, everyone began to pray.

The kobolds were no exception.

They were now slaves and there was no way out except to submit.

The orc chief spread his arms and knelt on the ground.

“We are grateful to you. We wish for your divine power to be eternal.”

“To let your glory shine on the entire world, your humble believers have brought you these ignorant kobolds. They are sheep who have lost their way and yearn for your protection.”

“Boom!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a solemn and sacred aura enveloped the entire tribe.

The temple began to burn with intense flames and thunder rumbled above their heads.

All the orcs and kobolds buried their heads on the ground.

They are worshipping their god with complete devotion.

At the same time, a solemn and grand voice echoed above the Monde tribe.

“I, the God of Thunder and Fire, Syltero Mifal Karo Giusto… accept your belief.”

Along with the sounds of thunder and fire, Lorne’s solemn words were transmitted to every devout believer.

And when the kobolds heard the name of their god, totem marks that were the same as the orcs manifested on their foreheads.

This was the recognition of their god, which meant that they had become the most devout believers of their god.

The kobolds were ecstatic.

All the imprints and memories that the fake god left on their bodies were shattered by this totem.

The kobolds were now Lorne’s most loyal believers.

Because they had experienced a crushing defeat, they feared Lorne’s existence from the bottom of their hearts. Considering that were also pardoned, they naturally respected Lorne even more.

It was also at this moment that the totem imprints on the kobolds’ foreheads bloomed with light. A ray of light flowed out from the totem and entered the kobolds’ bodies.

Just like the orcs around them, these lost lambs also received blessings from their god.

This was an incomparable honor for them.

The kobolds’ injuries were all healed. Not only that their strength was greatly enhanced.

This was because Lorne’s divine personality was enhanced, so his blessings were also enhanced on his believers.

“Great body of lightning and fire, your humble believers thank you for your blessing.”

Boom!

When the kobolds knelt down, Lorne could feel that the communication between him and the group of new believers became more fortified.

It was as if these kobolds evolved from cursory believers to true believers.

“120 true believers, 16 devout believers!”

“Now my Power of Faith will double every day.”

Although the kobolds were of low ranking, there were many of them.

Especially the kobolds’ reproductive ability. Producing seven or eight children at once was a speed that the orcs would never be able to catch up to.

At this moment, the kobold leader was shocked to find that his spirit greatly improved. Even magical elements that kobolds could not grasp became clear at this moment.

This was the same change that the orc chief experienced. It was the prelude to evolving into a Shaman.

Under normal circumstances, a god could only transform one believer into a Shaman.

But Lorne was different.

He was a triple-position god now. In theory, he could transform three believers into Shamans.

But now, because there was no suitable candidate, he only had two.

One could see that with Lorne’s blessing, the kobold leader who did not have the talent of a spell-caster suddenly became the second Shaman of the Monde tribe. It was unbelievable.
