Just then, he saw that there were quite a few goblins mixed in with the dwarves, and they looked at the statue with piety in their eyes.
Belina... Very well, there's no need to go to the goblin tribe anymore.
This deity from the East is going too far! Why not cultivate good deeds instead of developing followers?
Belinda took a few deep breaths. "Just how many races do you share the same beliefs with?"
Cook didn't hide anything this time, "As far as I know, there are three races, but I don't think there are any dragons."
He harbored a secret thought: of the three races, they were the most competitive, but adding the dragons might change that.
Compared to the elves, the dragons posed a greater threat.
After all, dragons, regardless of anything else, are two in number in terms of combat strength.
However, he also felt that as the foremost believer in God, he could not exclude other faiths because of his own selfish desires.
Amidst all these contradictions and entanglements, Cook felt like he was about to break down.
This time, a new deity wants to develop followers, and he specifically pointed out that the dragon race does not yet have a faith, which may be a way of wanting the deity to incorporate the dragon race.
He has already promoted his own god, and if the dragons believe in other gods, it can only mean that the dragons are not steadfast in their will and are not good believers.
Thinking about this, Cook felt much less stressed.
Once he sensed the departure of the god above, Cook reverted to his spirited patriarch self and immediately contacted Leonard.
"Old Lun, you just encountered a new god too, didn't you? I'm not bragging, but my will is firm and my faith has not wavered at all. In this respect, I am definitely better than you."
Leonard knew as soon as he received the dwarf's message that the guy's crisis was over.
In times of crisis, they are comrades-in-arms; once the crisis is over, they become adversaries.
"Hmph, that wretched Cook dares to question my loyalty to the gods." Leonard snorted coldly. He had spent a lot of time with Nat recently and felt that elves should have a noble demeanor, so he swallowed his subsequent sarcasm towards Cook.
Cook didn't hear the other party's retort and felt a little uncomfortable. This guy was annoying enough as it was, and he didn't know where he learned this attitude from. He was always putting on airs. Wasn't he tired of it?
"I really praised the gods quite a bit; if the gods knew, they would be very happy." Because he was busy with the idols, he hadn't had time to go to the gods' inn yet.
Once he's done with this, he'll definitely make sure to show his loyalty to God.
Upon hearing Cook's words, Leonard paused for a moment, thinking of his own meager vocabulary of praise, but finally said unwillingly, "I'll come to you when I have time to learn how to praise the gods."
Putting everything else aside, Cook is quite experienced in giving compliments to deities.
Hearing Leonard's admission of weakness, Cook happily shut down the holographic ring. "You continue to help direct the idol matter; I'm going to go and learn."
After making the arrangements, Cook, with his short legs, darted into the room.
He planned to come up with more words of praise from the gods before Leonard arrived, making sure Leonard was completely convinced.
Bellina headed towards the dragon clan with a dejected expression, showing none of the high spirits she had shown at the beginning.
After Ange left, the Dragon Clan Chief Karami suddenly regretted his actions and kept wondering if he had made a mistake.
After sending people to inquire, they learned that the elves possessed the Tree of Life and were currently studying the formations bestowed upon them by the gods.
The dwarves seemed to have received divine blessings from the gods, and they excitedly forged day and night.
Even the goblins have been living among the dwarves for a while now, and they seem to be incredibly busy.
Dragons are afraid of comparisons; in comparison, their race seems to have nothing to do.
Seeing his tribesmen sleeping after eating their fill, Karami was furious.
Their dragon race has innate fighting power, but other races are developing rapidly under the protection of the gods, so won't they fall behind? They can't rely on their talent for their entire lives.
To this end, he even went to the dwarves' territory under the pretext of wanting to have friendly exchanges with them.
Once the topic of gods came up, the dwarf chieftain started talking non-stop, describing the god as something extraordinary and unparalleled.
Chief Cook of the dwarves is a man who won't do anything without a profit motive. For him to respect this god so much, this god must have some special abilities.
When Karami saw the dwarves' latest weapon, he couldn't sit still any longer.
He could sense the immense power contained within these weapons. Although they posed no threat to the dragon race, compared to the current level of forging, the previous ones were utter garbage.
Moreover, Cook said that these are just the basics; they haven't fully comprehended the techniques bestowed by the gods yet, and they will forge even more powerful weapons in the future.
Karami was shocked. If things continued like this, the dwarves would soon be on par with them.
No, the elves are now allies of the dwarves. If such a weapon were forged, wouldn't the elves be the first to use it?
With these weapons, would their dragon race be suppressed? The more Karami thought about it, the more frightened he became, feeling that the dragon race's future was bleak.
He wanted to ask Cook when the god would descend again, but Cook only glanced at him and said, "How would I know where God is? Besides, God has so many followers, I wouldn't dare to disturb God unless it's something important."
After returning from the dwarf tribe, Karami entered a state of seclusion.
If he weren't afraid of offending the gods, he would have rushed through the portal and prostrated himself before their glory.
"Sigh." The more Karami thought about it, the more regretful he became. Under this feeling of regret, he automatically idealized Ange, whom he had never even met. After the idealization, he regretted even more that he had not immediately put his faith in the gods.
This cycle repeated itself, and he had fallen into a vicious cycle.
It was under these circumstances that Belina found the dragons.
"Believe in me, and I will protect the dragon race from now on." Belina's voice was somewhat mechanical; she had suffered too many blows that day.
In addition, she knew that the dragon race had their own dragon god to worship in their inherited memories, even though these dragons were all newly born and their inherited memories might not be clear yet.
But even the slightest hint of something makes it difficult for these dragons to believe in them.
Moreover, the Dragon Goddess has a special feeling for the newborn dragons, and she cannot be angry with these dragons.
With a "let's give it a try" attitude, Belina said those words.
Unexpectedly, upon hearing her words, the dragon clan chief knelt on the ground in excitement and cautiously asked, "Great deity, may I ask, what kind of god are you?"
Karami was thrilled. This was like a godsend, just when he was worried about not having any gods to believe in. He had actually encountered a new god.
Remembering the beliefs of dwarves and other races, Karami became wary.
The gods worshipped by the dragon race must be more powerful than those worshipped by other races, otherwise he wouldn't have relinquished his faith.
When Belina saw this, she was overjoyed; there was hope!
