Chapter 127: Moved to Tears

After logging off, Xiao Chen and Xiao Liu found Ye Laoshi, and the three of them gathered at the same breakfast stall; Ye Laoshi watched the morning news while eating breakfast.

"You two shouldn't get too addicted to the game; you should exercise when you get up in the morning," Ye Laoshi did not forget to instruct his two disciples, "I discovered that this Helmet has an additional benefit, which is that it allows a person to have a good night's sleep; I don't know what method it uses, but I don't feel tired at all when I wake up in the morning."

As he said this, the two disciples felt the same way.

Because they were thinking about playing the game at night, their motivation for work during the day was very high; they would finish their usual slacking-off work ahead of schedule, or even make plans.

"But Ye Laoshi, I want to discuss something with you; it's that quite a few people have been coming to our bookstore to buy books recently, should we hire someone or something?" Xiao Chen said, feeling a bit impatient, "After all, we want to go out and walk around sometimes; we've only been to the Tana City library twice. If we could go a few more times, perhaps we would have some good gains."

Ye Laoshi nodded, "I was going to suggest this even if you hadn't brought it up. I discussed it with Andrew: if the two girls we caught are willing to believe in the Lord of Calamity, let them come to our shop to work."

There was such a good thing?

The two of them had long hoped that the bookstore could be turned into a coffee shop model, and Ye Laoshi had even prepared hand-drip Coffee equipment, and had prepared several sets of tables and chairs in the room.

If they bought a few more desserts made by the Mengmeng sisters, combined with the two cute girls, this shop could guarantee income even without books.

At least the players would come over to spend money.

Currently, the biggest problem with the bookstore was that there was no news about royalties yet, but the bookstore was already somewhat unable to make ends meet.

If it weren't for the fact that this bookstore was invested in by Andrew, they wouldn't be able to be so at ease.

"You two shouldn't be so surprised; you still need to keep an eye on these two people and don't let them get lost. After all, they know our identities. As those people on the forums say, if it's exposed, the major churches will all come to encircle and suppress us, and the AI will need to recalculate, which might take quite a bit of time." Ye Laoshi still respected this game; in his view, being able to create such an epoch-making game meant the creator was by no means an ordinary person.

He had also contacted his own connections to inquire, but this company was indeed an ordinary peripheral company before; the boss's whereabouts were currently unknown, and the server was also a bit strange—it was clearly that company's IP, but he couldn't find where the server was at all.

It might also be because there were too few people playing, so it hadn't received much attention, at least not yet.

However, Ye Laoshi knew that this game would definitely be valued in the future; after all, this game was simply too advanced.

If the related technology could be applied to other aspects, it might be even more useful.

Inside the game, Chen Zhi had the Illusionist Heinke cast an Illusion on the two sisters.

In the middle of the night, Andrew brought Heinke to find the two sisters, but they didn't take the initiative to wake them up; instead, they created an illusion show.

Rita only felt as if there were whispers around her; opening her eyes, she saw her younger sister Lita also rubbing her eyes, looking blankly in the direction the sound was coming from.

Turning her head, the two sisters held their breath; they had actually seen a deity appear.

A tall figure appeared before the two sisters, this figure gazing faintly at them, holy and great.

This was also the reason Chen Zhi had Heinke come over; his own true form was really not convenient to show to others, as no matter how one looked at it, it was no different from an Evil God—ugly and eerie.

But in the Sewers, there really was no need for more NPCs to live there; at least Susan and Heinke were enough, and it wasn't appropriate for too many people to come to the Sewers to find him.

This was also a method Chen Zhi used to protect himself; after all, these two girls still had their own true faith, what if they let the God of Death find him?

Although he didn't know if that guy was actually alive, there was no harm in being on guard.

Seeing the holy scene, Rita immediately knelt down, and Lita also reacted after seeing her sister kneel, wishing she could press herself against the ground.

One could not look directly at a god, and the two of them had just been looking at this deity very disrespectfully.

It was only because this deity had no malice toward them; otherwise, they should have already died.

Never expected that the Lord of Calamity was actually a benevolent deity; this was completely different from what they had understood before.

"I have already heard Andrew's report; you are willing to believe in me." The voice of the Lord of Calamity rang out; that voice was very deceptive, mainly because Chen Zhi used the reverb function when saying these words.

These words were, after all, being recorded by Heinke inside the Sewers, so there would be a bit of an echo effect.

"I also know that you are very loyal to your original deity; I highly approve of your loyalty. But now, your loyalty has no meaning to this deity; if possible, I would also like to be able to make a deal with this old friend."

At this moment, Rita, who was kneeling on the ground, had already started to sweat; was He actually friends with the God of Death?

No wonder He would be so good to her and her sister; as expected, the deity knew that they were the ones with the true faith.

She wished she could cry, but that would be too embarrassing.

"I am willing to give you a chance, to let you live in Tana City for a period of time; if there is a suitable opportunity in the future, I can allow you to spread the gospel of the God of Death in Tana City—of course, that would also require the God of Death to become a true god of Tana City."

Anyone can draw a big pie; Chen Zhi didn't mind drawing a few more, at least he felt there was no need to become enemies with all the deities.

In Tana City, the God of Death was not a true faith and belonged to the category of evil cults; since the enemy of an enemy is a friend, Chen Zhi could try to win them over.

What if it succeeded?

Although Rita's reaction wasn't big, Lita was already moved to tears.

"I am willing to serve you, as long as you can allow us to preserve the gospel of the God of Death."

Never expected them to be so excited.

Heinke trembled as he continued to use the Illusion to play Chen Zhi's voice.

"I allow you to do so."

After saying this, everything disappeared, as if the deity had never been there.

Rita and Lita hugged each other tightly, "Sister, we don't have to worry about not being able to spread our faith anymore; I thought..."

"If one day the Calamity Church needs help, I think I will use that thing the teacher left behind." Rita secretly made up her mind; she thought this wasn't a bad deal, at least for now, it seemed the Calamity followers had already gained a foothold in Tana City.

After finishing breakfast, Ye Laoshi strolled home; he no longer needed to stay at the school every day, and could usually complete his translation tasks at home.

"Old man, why are you like the little ones, liking to buy these messy things?" Just as he got home, he saw his wife opening a large box, "This thing is too troublesome to clean up; how come I didn't know you knew how to shop online?"

"Heh, I didn't expect it to arrive so quickly." Ye Laoshi happily picked up the Helmet from the box, "This is a gift for you, not just buying random things."
