GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1750: Beautiful Gemmis.



Some buildings used crystal blocks of a single color, while others were constructed with assorted gems. It made for a koladioscope of colors. It made it look as if the city was built with colors given shape.

There was no sun in the sky, but the divine realm was completely bright. There was no shadow anywhere, and everywhere was lit by an unseen light. The amount of light further enhanced the beauty of the city. They are sure that the city would glow in the dark as it is, so it doesn't need light, but the light made the gems, transparent and translucent crystals, and colorful stones pop.

Legion didn't gawk though. At least not all of them. Four of them did the gawking. They stared at different directions and fed the others what they saw. The other 5 were looking around for important details like the appearance of other gods, their number, and what they were doing. They were able to create a complete mental image of the city around them that way.

"It seems we are not the first ones to establish a religion."

"I wonder how fast we did."

"We took 4 days since our appearance to take over the entire tribe. That has to count for something, right?"

Their angel replied, "You are currently the 103,638th god out of the 100 million god seeds to ascend to a divine plane. As you selected to start in the Northern Realm, you have ascended to the divine realm of the Northern Realm."

"So there are other divine realms. If we split the number of gods that have established a religion by 4, that means we are in the 25,000 range of progress amongst the 1,000,000 god seeds that can qualify to become gods. That has to be fast."

Their angel confirmed it, "It is fast. But you are nowhere fast enough to complete the side quest of being in the first 100 god seeds to become Godlings."

"Hmm. How do we become Godlings?"

No sooner had Legion-6 asked that they receive a quest notification.

(Quest Received)n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

(Main Quest: Become One Of The First 4,000,000 Godling)

(Third Step: Create An Altar In The Divine Realm)

(Reward: Access To Your Divine Portfolio)

(Description: A local deity is not a godling yet. Not until they can receive divine energy from believers without the help of the divine realm. They will need a divine altar for that)

This quest and the optional quest to become one of the first 100 Godlings are the only two quests they have currently. The two of them are similar except for the factor of time.

They need to be fast to become part of the first 1,000,000 godlings. They are already making good progress with that. But their current position of 25,000 is far from where they need to be if they are to become one of the first 100. It made them realize that if they are to complete the optional quest, they have to hurry.

Legion-2 muttered, "Being in the top 25,000 doesn't look so good right now."

Legion-7 asked their angel as they looked around, "What is a godling, and how do we create the altar."

Their ever reliable angel replied, "Currently you are relying on the divine realm, specifically this divine city, to connect you with your believers. This is how divine energy is directed to you. And it is also the only way for you to acquire divine abilities."

"This connection can be delayed, sabotaged, or blocked completely. You will need to create an independent and secure receiver to make that connection for you. That is the altar. The altar is also necessary to establish yourself in the divine realm and become a true god."

They would like to be moving immediately, but they need information and knowledge to make the best decisions. They can move, but moving without a direction or purpose will be a waste of time and effort.

Besides, the information transfer between them and their angel is mental. It is almost instantaneous, so they are enot wasting a lot of time to get the information they need to make efficient decisions.

The angel continued, "To create an altar, what you need are divine materials. I will tell you more on the materials as we go on. For now, you need to get divine spells to empower yourself so that we can go and get the most important material needed for the altar."

Their angel also knew that they were running out of time, so it made the best decision to make efficient use of their time. It directed them to the temple they just spawned beside. The temple was at the center of the Gemmis divine city. It wasn't the biggest building in Gemmis, but it is arguably the most important building. This is because it is home to the city spirit and Divine Investiture.

They are here for the Divine Investiture. It is a large black steele of stone on which the names of every ascended god assigned to Gemmis are written. The names are golden and tiny. But they are numerous, so the steele is very large.

The stele is not the only thing in the temple. It is standing at the center of the temple, while many floors line the edge of the temple. There were rooms on these floors that gods could stay in.

They were other gods rushing in and out of the temple. All of them touched the stele before they left. Most of them were in a hurry, but some took the stairs to reach the floors above.

Their angel introduced it to them as they approached it. "The stele is currently 1011 meters tall. It is constantly growing as more names are added to it. It will also reduce in size as those names disappear when the gods assigned to it die permanently."

All of them went ahead to touch the stele. It is currently the only way to receive divine energy from their believers in the mortal realm and also the only way to purchase divine spells.
