Chapter 261 The Role of the Three Rewards
"System, have you come back to life?"
"Ding! You're the one who's come back to life! I was just incredibly bored, so I went into a deep sleep! Are you going to do the mission or not? If not, I'll cancel it!"
"You've gone to so much trouble to post a few tasks, how could I possibly not do them!"
To be honest, Miguel was quite satisfied with these three rewards. The Temple of the Prayer had been very useful to him. It's worth noting that while there had been deaths of believers in the past four years, their faith levels were simply too low for sainthood, failing to meet the requirements for angelic reincarnation. Otherwise, Miguel would have already reincarnated them as angels.
As for those fanatical believers, they need to be transformed into a lower-level Heroic Spirit, which requires the Heroic Spirit Reincarnation Pool. The Heroic Spirit Reincarnation Pool was obtained during a previous mission, and Miguel also reincarnated a Heroic Spirit, namely the Death Spider Emperor. After that, Miguel did not reincarnate again.
There are two reasons why Miguel no longer reincarnates. First, he doesn't lack manpower, so reincarnating would just be a waste. Second, the equipment is incomplete, and he lacks a Temple of Prayers.
Those who become believers of the Prayer have reached the level of Deep Believers, who are considered the backbone of the believers. Miguel will guide their souls to God's Kingdom after their death.
After entering the divine realm, the supplicants also have no physical body. The soul of a living being is the most vulnerable existence. Without the protection of the physical body, their energy consumption will increase dramatically. Therefore, they need a place to protect them, and this is the Temple of the Suprabuddhas.
In addition, after death, believers of the deep believer level and below, due to insufficient soul level, except for a very few souls that are strong enough to retain their memories of their previous life, the vast majority of believers below the fanatic level cannot maintain their rationality.
Although Miguel could use divine power to elevate the soul level of these believers and allow them to retain their sanity from their previous lives, Miguel would never do it, since it would take five drops of divine power to elevate the soul level of a deep believer to maintain their sanity.
A devout believer can contribute 100 strands of faith power per day, and only 36,500 strands of faith power per year, which translates to only 0.0365 drops of divine power. Even if this believer could worship the Lord of Light for 100 years, they would only receive 3.65 drops of divine power.
Miguel wasn't in the charity business, so he naturally wouldn't do anything that would lose money. Therefore, allowing believers whose faith level didn't reach the level of fanaticism to enter the Temple of the Prayer was already Miguel's last act of mercy. What more could they ask for?
Therefore, in the absence of a temple for the supplicants, rather than letting the supplicants remain in the divine kingdom in the form of souls, it would be better to simply shut down their six senses, put away their souls, and use them for other purposes.
As for Saint Wheat, it is considered a specialty of the Light lineage. Although the food he eats now is already quite good for the people on the continent, it still contains many impurities, and it takes a long time to clean away these impurities after each meal.
Now that he actually had Holy Wheat seeds, how could he not be excited? Holy Wheat was the most suitable for the Light lineage; long-term consumption could enhance a person's talents.
At the height of the reign of the former Lord of Light, all cardinals and the Pope were to share ten stones of sacred wheat bestowed by the God of Light.
Every believer considers it an honor to be able to eat sacred wheat. Moreover, the people of the Kingdom of Light and the Holy Spirit angels also eat sacred wheat. Therefore, apart from the God of Light himself, the sacred wheat for everyone else is in short supply.
As for the origin and function of the World Tree's seed, it is even more complicated. According to the memories of the Lord of Light, Miguel knows that there are five great-level gods on the Continent of Light, and each of them is a god of law, also known as an ancient god.
As for these five great-level deities, they are the innate deity Lord of Light, who was formed from the first ray of light in the world; the deity Lord of Darkness, who was formed from the first ray of darkness; Uranus, the first dragon in the world; Hela, the goddess of death, who was formed from the first ray of death in the world; and Yggdrasil, the only World Tree in the world, the god of life and spirits.
The seeds of the World Tree came from Lord Yggdrasil, the god of life and spirits. In a sense, the seeds of the World Tree are the offspring of Lord Yggdrasil.
The seeds of the World Tree are extremely precious to the gods. Since the rise of the gods of faith, both the gods of faith and the gods of law have established their own divine kingdoms. In a sense, a divine kingdom is a small world, but its growth is linked to the god; the stronger the god, the stronger the divine kingdom.
This is precisely why the divine kingdom's advancement speed is so rapid. The natural world, on the other hand, advances through a long period of accumulation, a gradual process of building up strength before finally achieving its goal. The divine kingdom, however, has not accumulated much over many years and advances rapidly under the influence of divine power, making it extremely fragile during its advancement process.
Before a divine kingdom reaches level six, the probability of problems arising during its ascension is extremely low due to the suppression of the deity itself. However, once a divine kingdom reaches level six, the area expanded by each ascension becomes too vast. This means that without a suitable suppressing force, each ascension must be approached with extreme caution, as a single misstep could cause the divine kingdom to shatter during the ascension process.
Under normal circumstances, the objects used by gods to suppress evil spirits are all divine artifacts they have crafted themselves. This means that unless a god possesses two or more divine artifacts, he will not have any divine artifacts at all that he can use.
