Fortunately, the newcomer mouse didn't understand much, otherwise Zhao Zian's positive image in its mind might have been completely shattered.
Even though Zhao Zian inadvertently revealed his true feelings, he wasn't so heartless as to point fingers at someone and force them to change their ways...
Let's get back to the main topic.
When Zhao Zian was bathing the hamster before, he had already begun to understand the hamster's worldview.
There are many races in the universe, and the concentration of spiritual energy varies.
The Blue Star where Zhao Zian is located is a world with low spiritual energy concentration, which can also be called the world of the end of Dharma.
Fortunately, I have a strong heart inherited from my ancestors, plus the rich and diverse internet.
Zhao Zian's heart has been trained to be incredibly strong. Now, even if he sees a large group of sows lining up to fall into a ditch, he will not be disturbed in the slightest.
In an instant, Zhao Zian accepted the premise that the mouse was a transmigrator from another world.
The gist of it is: The mouse is actually a space mouse. It originally had an owner, but it and its owner were attacked by enemies. Its owner couldn't defeat them and died.
The mouse isn't very strong in combat, but the Space Mouse has a unique skill: teleportation. Although it can't fight, its skills are useful and it's excellent at escaping.
Basically, any creature with a bit of strength wants to catch mice and use them as tools, so they wouldn't really want to kill them.
But the hamster is a veteran actor; it's basically a permanent hamster with ever-changing owners.
Anyway, if its owner is about to die, the hamster will just run away, live a carefree life for a few days, and then get caught again, so it will just find another owner...
In summary...
You worthless traitor!
Mouse!
See you!
??
emmmm……
"Since you haven't recovered yet, why don't you stay at my house for now? Just treat me like your pet rat. But don't talk in front of people, or I'm afraid you'll be mistaken for an alien rat and taken away."
"Okay, thank you so much, my benefactor!"
"You don't have to keep calling me your benefactor. My name is Zhao Zi'an. You can call me Lao Zhao or Zi'an."
"But then again, how come you can speak our local Mandarin as soon as you arrive? Do you have some kind of telepathic ability or something?"
"No, this is the universal language of the universe. So it's called Mandarin in your world, Koyasu..."
Zhao Zian's face twitched slightly, but his inherited strong heart allowed him to accept this situation.
He placed the hamster in his palm and strode towards home. After going through so much, he needed to slow down and process it all.
"Oh right, Zian, I haven't repaid you for all you've done for me. You've helped me so much. I'll let you pick one... um... three from my collection!" The mouse in Zhao Zian's hands seemed to have thought of something, and said solemnly with a touch of heartache.
"However, since Koyasu's world is a world in the Dharma-ending Age, all kinds of treasures will be suppressed, so many things may not be very effective..."
Zhao Zian listened to Shushu's words but didn't seem to care.
"If it's not working, what's the point of me taking it?"
"Hmm...that's true, but some things do have some effect, right...like making Zi'an healthier, boosting her immunity, and so on..."
The mouse hopped and skipped in Zhao Zian's hands, racking its brains to think of some benefits of collecting it...
Zhao Zian also became somewhat interested. Although he knew that the rat's collection was not very useful, it was always good to broaden one's horizons. Who else could see things from another world?
...
Although the mouse is in a bad state right now, it can still open its storage space, since it doesn't consume much energy.
While you can't unleash your ultimate move, you can easily master your smaller skills.
It kept taking things out of the storage space in front of its belly, explaining the origin and function of these things to Zhao Zian as it did so, but most of them were no longer useful.
What magical artifacts and magical implements? They're basically just scrap metal now, completely unusable.
Zhao Zian turned his attention to things like fruits and medicinal herbs.
The mouse was also explaining from the side.
This is a Devil Fruit. Originally, eating it would grant the user the power of a Devil, but now it only slightly strengthens the body, making one less prone to illness, etc.
That's an elixir of immortality. In the past, consuming it could grant even the strongest individuals a second life, essentially giving them an extra life. Now, consuming it can replenish qi and blood, calm the mind, improve eyesight, and relieve constipation...
...
Zhao Zian fell into deep thought.
Should one choose something that makes them less prone to illness, or something that nourishes their blood and qi, calms their mind, improves their eyesight, and relieves constipation...?
Or is it to help with sleep, prevent hair loss, or treat athlete's foot and acne?
...
He angrily slammed it down! (Even though there was no table)
(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
That's so useless!!
But then again, having a kidney tonic seems pretty good...
cough……
Let's get back to the main topic.
Just as Zhao Zian was getting a little dizzy from looking at it, the little mouse took out a small bean that was shimmering with golden light, and the little golden bean even seemed to have sprouted...
Can you imagine, among a bunch of health supplements with amazing names but incredibly abstract effects,
Suddenly a bald man appeared (crossed out).
A small, glittering golden thing...
This looks like a good thing to any normal person, it's a golden legendary item!
Other items, once brought out, were basically dull and shriveled, completely lacking the appearance that a miraculous medicine should have.
If this thing can emit golden light even in a so-called low spiritual energy world, what would it be like in other worlds?
I'm afraid of comparing prices.
As soon as Zhao Zian saw the thing, he quickly pointed to the small golden bean and asked:
"What is this?"
The mouse was also taken aback, and then became a little sad.
"This is a seed of faith left by the rat's previous owner. She followed the path of faith to become a god, and as she told Zi'an, due to the betrayal and blasphemy of her followers, coupled with attacks from hostile deities, the result was..."
"Then your master must be very strong. This Seed of Faith is still glowing, much better than other treasures..."
"Perhaps my previous owner wasn't quite dead yet, or perhaps he was, but the spiritual essence of the Seed of Faith hadn't fully dissipated!"
At this point, the mouse also became excited.
"This seed of faith might be helpful to Koyasu!"
Zhao Zian's eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly asked, "Then how do I use this Seed of Faith? Do I just eat it?"
The mouse shook its head and said, "No, the Seed of Faith is used to enlighten believers. It can make other creatures become Koyasu's believers and give those creatures the power of faith..."
"The less intelligent a creature is, the easier it is to succeed; highly intelligent creatures find it difficult to succeed with just a seed of faith."
Zhao Zian asked, "What benefits would I gain from having followers?"
"Believers can provide faith power to Zi'an. With enough faith power, one can become a god. Faith power can also be used to employ divine magic, create avatars of faith, and so on..."
Goodness, this is just empty promises...
Zhao Zian was somewhat tempted, to be honest. After all, other things only had the effects of health supplements, but this thing really had special effects.
Seemingly sensing Zhao Zian's thoughts, the mouse said earnestly, "Does Zian really want to embark on the path of faith and becoming a god? This path is extremely dangerous. My previous master perished because of the scheming between gods... Actually, living a peaceful and ordinary life as an ordinary person isn't necessarily a bad thing..."
"Moreover, there's only one seed of faith left. Humans, as intelligent beings, don't change their beliefs so easily. After all, Zi'an is just an ordinary person now..."
"Hehe, who said I wanted human followers? I've seen some movies and such, and there are all sorts of conspiracies and schemes for human followers... Besides, didn't you say that people with lower intelligence are more easily converted? Then let's recruit some followers with lower intelligence..."
Zhao Zian, brimming with excitement, envisioned the future, his gaze casually drifting towards the Seed of Faith.
The golden light of the Seed of Faith was visibly dimming.
Zhao Zian: "..."
The mouse quickly put the Seed of Faith into its storage space.
"Zi'an, my storage space can slow down the degeneration of the Seed of Faith, but if you really want to take the path of faith to become a god, you need to make a decision soon."
"Moreover, the seed of faith has degenerated considerably, so its effects may be..."
...
After a while...
Zhao Zian frowned, slowly stood up, and exhaled a breath of stale air.
"Alright, I've made up my mind. I'll find ants or something to be my followers. I refuse to believe that even insects like that can't succeed!"
The mouse didn't object. Although various intelligent beings provide the most faith, it is also because of their high intelligence that the faith they provide is very diverse, with all sorts of distracting thoughts, desires, and negative emotions mixed together.
Many deities eventually become driven by these distracting thoughts and desires, and cease to be themselves...
Perhaps... those tiny insects really are a group of good believers?
