Chapter 94: Prepare for hunting

Lu Yao used the last Apostle Mark to convert Phileas.

With this set of formal temple procedures, he can trust Phileas.

A reminder appeared on the screen.

– Converting him into an apostle of your temple will consume the power of faith. Do you want to consume 1000 faith points to convert the apostle?

[Yes] [No]

Lu Yao clicked yes.

– The lost apostle heard your call, and your power of faith repaired his broken body and dried up soul. He is rapidly recovering from the dying sea.

– [Apostle] Phileas, following your will, executing your divine oracle, fighting for your fire of faith.

Phileas gradually transformed from transparency to solidity, and his true form was an ordinary-looking skeleton.

He respectfully knelt in front of Lu Yao, who was in front of the monitor.

Lu Yao asked about the situation of the Skeleton God.

Praying for the dying is just an inquiry, and it may not obtain comprehensive information. But by turning Phileas into an apostle and getting on his own ship, he will naturally do his best.

The information gap is fatal in the confrontation between gods, and Lu Yao has personal experience.

Text appeared above the skeleton’s head: “God Yao, the Skeleton God is one of the gods, ranked 18th among the gods in the Divine Oracle Temple, also one of the 19 subordinate gods of the Divine Oracle, known as the Whistleblower.”

“The Skeleton God has two apostles, and the other one is much stronger than me.”

“When he entered this broken world, he also suffered a stronger backlash from the rules and went completely crazy. The Skeleton God let me dismantle him into bones and made him into a skeletal creature.”

Lu Yao obtained another useful information.

When foreign gods descend and cross borders, the stronger their apostles are, the greater the backlash they will suffer.

Although the rules of the fragmented world also have small loopholes, under the strict restrictions, it can generally ensure that the fragmented world is a safe zone for beginners.

There should be very few gods willing to pay the price of self-harm and start over.

“The Skeleton God has seven treasures. But in order to resist your divine power, he put five of them into the fire of faith to quickly replenish faith.”

Lu Yao suddenly realized.

No wonder the Skeleton God resisted the first round of lightning attacks. It turned out that he had emptied his treasury and converted everything into the power of faith.

Lu Yao had done the same thing once. He burned 10 points of faith with a golden dice.

This operation was a loss. The bonfire of the temple had no clear price, and it was completely opaque how much faith it would burn. Divine players would not use it until they were desperate.

Lu Yao learned from the pain and decided to change his strategy.

In the future, he would upgrade and optimize tactics, accurately strike the evil gods in the fragmented world, and strive to reduce resource waste and consumption.

In simple terms, it was to maximize the results of victory.

The lightning attack launched against the Skeleton God this time did not cost Lu Yao much.

Just the first round of intensive lightning clusters alone cost him a total of 5000 faith points.

Then he also used Aegir’s Fire to bombard the meteor, reducing the ammunition by 1.

Finally, he indirectly lost a total of 5 items!

Lu Yao only felt regret, very regretful.

But he quickly adjusted his mindset.

What is the most important quality of a worker?

Optimism.

As a worker, it is important to be happy every day. Being unhappy for a day and then happy the next day is true happiness.

Lu Yao shifted his attention back to Phileas.

Previously, Phileas deliberately boasted and claimed to be the weakest apostle under the Skeleton God. This was, of course, to demonstrate their own strength and deepen the cooperation with the Lord of the Deep Sea.

After all, he possessed [Wisdom LV10].

Lu Yao asked about the situation of the [Azure God].

“God Yao, the gods will keep their distance from each other, even if they are in the same temple. They are wary of each other. The Skeleton God doesn’t know much about the Azure God.”

“…”

Phileas pondered for a moment. “I only know that the Azure God has two apostles. The Skeleton God is wary of the Azure God, so he has always been trying to balance those two apostles.”

“The first apostle is an earth elemental creature with strong defense but slow movement and insufficient proactive attack.”

“The second apostle is a special life form, good at hiding and lurking, with unknown characteristics.”

The knowledge of the skeleton was limited, but the information it provided gave Lu Yao a basic concept of the enemy.

After several battles with divine players, he dared to directly attack other gods, relying on the information advantage.

Lu Yao could fight if he wanted to, and leave if he wanted to. Even if the opponent was tough and couldn’t be dealt with in a short time, he could retreat. But the opponent couldn’t find his temple for a while and couldn’t counterattack his true body.

The battle erupted on the enemy’s divine statue and territory, and the enemy could only lose more and more, with no chance of turning the tables.

Lu Yao gave Isabella an order: inform the Garlic Tribe in Yao City and Salt City to be wary of heretical gods. If there are any suspicious statues, buildings, or creatures related to humans, immediately report to the apostles or the Divine Oracle Hamira.

…

After arranging everything, Lu Yao looked at his team of apostles.

The Blood Knight was a senior instructor and assault officer who created soldiers using corpses and salt.

The skeleton was a skilled craftsman specializing in skeletal LEGO.

The snowman was a crazy and eccentric thief.

And there was only Isabella, a normal person.

Lu Yao sighed deeply.

Leading this team was really difficult.

He suddenly understood Mr. Huang.

The world is big, but there are always fewer people who can really work.

Lu Yao drank some cola to calm down.

He suddenly found a blind spot.

There seemed to be a special skeleton in the castle that had not been used yet.

The chief apostle of the Forest God, the giant Freest.

Since the corruption project was suspended, Freest’s incomplete body was still in the castle. Now that there was a shortage of manpower, it would be better to let Phileas make use of it and see if he could assemble something.Lu Yao asked for Phileas’s opinion.

An exclamation mark popped up above the skeleton’s head: “The body of a high-ranking Apostle? That’s top-grade material, Lord God Yao, I appreciate your generosity and trust!”

“I will definitely not waste the high-grade material, and will create superior skeletal creatures to fight for your faith!”

Lu Yao, controlling the Deep Sea Lord, carried Phileas all the way to the castle in the Western Continent.

Upon entering the depths of the castle and seeing the giant corpse as big as a small mountain, a light bulb lit up above Phileas’s head.

“Fantastic!”

“What a robust body! What crystal clear and round bones! What a dazzling luster, and the enticingly firm and charming lines!”

A face of ecstasy appeared above the skeleton’s head, and he raised his arms high.

Phileas looked towards the screen, asking somewhat incredulously: “Lord God Yao, do all the bones of this giant belong to me? Really?”

Lu Yao typed.

— Only the bones.

Phileas climbed onto the giant’s head with four curved horns, and began to dismantle the bones one by one, his movements light and nimble.

He hummed a song while he worked.

A bunch of gibberish popped up on the skeleton’s head, and Lu Yao guessed that he was singing some kind of hometown tune.

Meanwhile.

The bones of Frist belonged to Phileas, and the remaining parts belonged to the Blood Knight, Neville.

In need of manpower, Lu Yao instructed the Blood Knight to use the giant’s rotten flesh mixed with other stored corpses to speed up the production of the Corrupted.

Time ticked away.

Half an hour later, there was no trace of the giant Frist in the castle.

The Blood Knight had created 38 Corrupted in one go. This batch of Corrupted were of excellent strength, with the lowest level being LV15, and the highest even reaching LV19, already a considerable combat force.

Under the Blood Knight’s training, the Corrupted fought each other in close combat, fist to flesh, reminding Lu Yao of the gladiators in the arena. Who doesn’t like to watch a good brawl?

But when he looked at Phileas on the other side, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

After all this, you just used the bones of a high-ranking Apostle to assemble a ball for me?
