Half an hour later.
"Considering your piety, I will grant you some leniency. But you must not spread this word. Do you understand?"
“We know, Your Majesty the Angel.”
The examinees bowed and greeted each other, their eyes filled with undisguised excitement.
I never imagined that such a simple registration process would involve so many intricacies. I have to thank that guy in the white shirt.
"Then let's all go our separate ways."
The angel nodded slightly and waved his hand to move everyone out of the assessment space, leaving only the white-robed youth from before.
He smiled slightly and bowed respectfully again, saying, "My lord."
"Okay, go get ready, change your look, and we'll start the next round in ten minutes."
The angel gave a calm instruction.
"Yes." The young man in white acknowledged the order and left.
Yes, this is a shill disguised as a preacher.
To be precise, the registration process itself is a test.
Research personnel must possess at least two of the following qualities: talent, intelligence, rigor, and diligence.
Those with talent will be identified directly during the testing process.
Wise and meticulous people would not be misled by such a clumsy deception.
As for those who lack all these qualities but still rush to give money, then naturally we can only reluctantly accept it.
Of course, the more important reason is...
The angel's lips gradually curved into a beautiful smile.
Gather the money you just collected into a storage item and silently say "Submit".
A faint holy light flashed, and the storage item vanished instantly. A notification sounded in my ear:
"Respected Two-Winged Angel, your optional mission for the 'God Creation Sequence - Archangel Rank': Collect Soul Crystals (1.83 billion / 1 billion) has been completed, earning you 20 contribution points. Your current total contribution points are 898."
All the angels have been loaded with different subsequences of the "God-Making Sequence," and as a civilian angel, one of her optional tasks is to collect resources.
"I just need to accumulate 9102 more contribution points to request the Holy Lord to bestow a name upon me..."
The two-winged angel stared at the numbers on the panel for a long time, his eyes filled with hope and longing.
Then, full of enthusiasm, I opened the review space.
"Next batch!"
......
Meanwhile, Holy Spirit City was also in a state of great activity.
"Holy Lord, the number of applicants has exceeded 13.72 million, and the number is still rising. Two angel legions have been deployed to assist the missionaries in the review process."
"But according to Semir, the head of the Freedom City office, it is still far from enough. It is said that the line of people waiting to register has stretched from the south of Freedom City to outside the north gate."
Annalia reported respectfully.
"Have Tinas work overtime again to rush out some Pillars of Destiny. Then recruit a batch of missionaries and set up enough verification points. You can decide on the number."
Jiang Yan shook his head helplessly.
He himself did not expect it to become so popular; he could only say that he completely underestimated the appeal of 100 divine positions.
"Understood, Holy Lord, I'll go right away." Analia nodded and quickly left.
She had already considered a solution, but deploying the Supreme and large-scale incubation troops still required Jiang Yan's permission.
Being trusted by the Lord is one thing, but as a subordinate, one must learn to maintain proper boundaries.
"Your Majesty..."
At this moment, Sheena also rushed over. She didn't even have time to exchange a few words with Anna as she passed by. She shouted from afar, "Lord Death requests support. He says that his divine power recovery is not keeping up with the consumption."
"What?!"
Jiang Yan was taken aback.
Although the Grim Reaper hasn't recovered to the Supreme Realm yet, he's still at the peak of the Main God level. It's unlikely that he'd be reduced to this level just because he's guiding some examinees.
"You are unaware of this, Your Majesty."
Sheena sighed and said, "Those beings have discovered that being guided by Lord Death is both efficient and avoids the cost of teleportation. Now, more than 80% of them are choosing this method to register."
"In order to maintain the reputation of Holy Spirit City and the Undead Pantheon, Lord Death dared not even slow down the response speed and could only grit his teeth and persevere."
“Eighty percent...it must have been tough on him…” Jiang Yan felt a headache coming on.
He immediately waved his hand and conjured two Soul Crystal Mountains, handing them to the other party: "Take them to the Grim Reaper, tell him to hold on for two more months, and then allow him to slumber for a year."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Xina put away the soul crystal, bowed again, and then teleported away from the hall.
Before Jiang Yan could catch his breath, several beams of light flashed, and Floria, Li Miaolin, Asar, and others arrived one after another.
"Holy Lord/Emperor".
"No need for formalities, let's get straight to the point."
Jiang Yan shook his head.
In preparation for the upcoming event, every branch of Holy Spirit City is extremely busy.
The group exchanged glances, and Floria smiled sweetly, taking half a step back and saying, "My matter isn't urgent, you all go first."
"Then I'll go first."
Li Miaolin took out a document and handed it over: "This is the research assessment test paper that the research institute has discussed. Take a look."
"Um..."
Jiang Yan scanned the area with his divine sense and suggested, "You know more about this than I do. My suggestion is that you could add some of the problems that your research institute is currently struggling with. After all, there are so many examinees, and perhaps some exceptionally talented ones can solve them, saving you years of hard work."
"good."
Li Miaolin nodded and said, "In addition, the number of participants exceeded expectations, and the prizes prepared in advance were far from enough. Each group is rushing to make them, but they need sufficient materials."
"I'll figure something out."
Jiang Yan rubbed his temples, saying with a headache.
Besides the final divine position reward, those who advance through the assessment will receive other rewards, such as soul crystals, equipment, and items.
Otherwise, it would make the top two pantheons seem too shabby.
Fortunately, Anna's divine angels had collected a large amount of resources, otherwise they would have been in dire need of funds.
"Okay, I'll go back and get busy then."
"Thank you for your hard work," Jiang Yan said apologetically.
"I'm glad I could help you. Strictly speaking, it's just doing some work and getting a divine position for free. I don't know how many people would envy that."
Li Miaolin blinked and smiled, "Alright, that's enough. Send me through the faith portal. I haven't had time to refine my divine position yet, so I can't teleport."
"Alright." Jiang Yan smiled slightly, waved his hand, and a beam of light descended, teleporting the other party back to the research institute.
Then he turned to his head and asked, "And you?"
"My Lord, as you commanded, I have cleared out hundreds of nearby planets to build temporary settlements."
Etherra asked for instructions:
"We've already mobilized 90% of the dwarf teams from Holy Spirit City to work day and night, but the progress is still far from enough. Should we also allow some of the angel legions to join in?"
“No, their skill level is too far behind… Let Ainate go for now. With his strength, if he uses time acceleration to its maximum, one day can be used as three days.”
Jiang Yan pondered for a moment and then said.
We can only make things a little tough for the dwarves for now.
“Yes, Holy Lord.” Etherra bowed and accepted the order.
"And you, Flora, what's the matter?"
"Holy Lord, the opening dance for the Investiture of the Gods war that you commissioned is complete, but we're still missing a suitable theme song..."
"That's easy."
Jiang Yan condensed a divine token and handed it to the other party: "Take my token and go to the Great World of Music and Song to find Lilanser and ask her to cooperate with your work."
"Thank you, Holy Lord! I will definitely do my best to present the most perfect work!" Flora's eyes flashed with excitement as she eagerly flew towards the teleportation channel.
"It seems it's time to find some more help."
Jiang Yan watched the crowd depart, then locked his divine sense onto the location of the Gate of Heaven. With a flash, he disappeared from the spot.
