GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1777: Divine Tools.



The avatar spell can allow them to interfere in the affairs of the mortal realm directly, but they can't be like how they were when they first came to God's Domain. They can't follow Warshaw about without any costs anymore. They certainly can't go about the tribes converting the people into believers themselves. That's why they have to rely on their Oracle and their mortal army.

Now that they have sorted that out, the next thing they focused on was creating divine weapons. It is just right that they focus on forging divine tools after they were done with forging mortal ones.

They can buy divine weapons from Gemmis, but the weapons are tier 2 at best. So if they want stronger weapons, they have to be able to make them themselves or find them somewhere out there.

They chose to depend on themselves. So the divine weapons they are trying to make are mostly for them, but they will first experiment with some that they intend to bestow to the priests. Then they will scrap whichever one they don't need and use it to create superior divine weapons for themselves.

The good thing about making divine weapons is that they can never fail. They will always succeed in their attempts, but the quality of the divine weapon might be questionable.

Even so, they can still scrap the weapon and start again. Less than 10% of the materials will go to waste. Only materials from divine beasts like the claws of ice wolves will go to waste. As for the gold, divine crystals, and divinity they spend, those can always be recovered.

So they spent their time working on forging divine weapons while they watched their army spread like wildfire, razing down every opposition in their way and bearing the fruit of faith for them. Meanwhile, the Divine Realm had also been thrown into an uproar.

Crystal Hoarder was moving a cart of divine orbs into Gemmis before she heard the

notification about the first true god. Her form is that of a goblin, so she is very ugly and short. She is a goblin god through and through.

Goblins are a weak race with a potential of just 20 out of 100. That means they have an average stat of 4 between all 5 stats. Yet she chose them to be her race because they like hording crystals and precious gems.

As a dragon in the void universe, hoarding precious items is her favorite past time. Unfortunately, dragons were not an option for a source of faith. So she couldn't become a dragon god, but the goblins were available. As the next best thing, she liked them at first sight.

They are weak, but that didn't make much of a difference to her because she considers everyone else to be weak. Besides, she doesn't think she will need their strength for anything. What she needed were gems and crystals.

It is not just her pride speaking. She doesn't see any qualitative difference between the races because they are all mortals, and mortals are all trash regardless of their potential. The only good thing they can do for her is to believe in her. As long as they do so, she is confident of taking on any enemy on her own.

If the mortals also like to collect precious things, then they will stand out from the rest. That's why she went ahead with goblins.

She would have gone with dwarves, but like elves, they are incredibly xenomorphic and resistant to other races or gods. They sounded like they would be too stubborn to work with, so she went with goblins.

She hasn't regretted this decision apart from the fact that it made her divine form ugly. The rest have been good. The goblins had a lot of wealth hidden away, and they live underground where mining for more is good, so she didn't lack for gold.

They are stupid and weak, so they were easily impressed. They believed in her very quickly, so she was able to ascend very early. They also reproduce easily and have a large population, so her authority is very high.

In fact, the first tribe she came across was very small, but many other tribes came to worship her as soon as they heard about her. She didn't need to put in much effort for goblins to migrate en masse to her. They came while she was busy hunting in the divine realm.

All of these, plus her fighting prowess and luck, made it easy for her to become the first godling. It also made her meet the Authority requirement to become a god soon after.

The only thing she needed was to reach level 100. So she went out to hunt. Unfortunately for her, it was too late to become the first true god. She was just about to return to her altar and start the evolution when she heard the announcement about 9 Crowns becoming the first true god.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Her eyes narrowed when she heard the announcement.

She roared in anger, "Who dared to steal my prize?"

No one replied her. In fact, there's no one around her apart from her angel. Everyone is avoiding her like a plague. So it was up to her angel to give a reply.

"Unfortunately, there is no way to know that directly. But there is a way to identify a true god. They will feel more powerful and threatening. You will be able to tell once you see them. If you see a true god now, then they must be the first true god, as there is currently only one true god."

The angel didn't point out the fact that Crystal Hoarder didn't need the cart of divine orbs she was pushing around. Acquiring the cart had delayed her from being the first true god. She might have become the first true god had she stopped hunting when she reached level 100. So she was the one that delayed herself when she became greedy for more divinity.
