Chapter 908

"Why would mushrooms grow on my face? This is muscle-generating potion, used on wounds. But how do you know mushrooms will grow?" Shaya asked in astonishment.

"......" It really grows? This Church of Radiance does things really roughly. Negris asked, "How do you handle it when mushrooms grow?"

"That's because the wound is rotten. Just trim off the rotten flesh and apply it again. As long as the wound grows, mushrooms won't grow," Shaya said, then asked suspiciously, "Who is that? Why does he look like me? And he can use holy radiance? Don't tell me it's that planting construct from just now wearing a scarecrow hat. My divine sense can't see through this kind of disguise."

Shaya actually guessed it. There were only four moving objects here. The Monarch just handed the hat to that construct, and that construct disappeared, replaced by a 'person' exactly like himself. Besides being transformed by a planting construct, what else could it be?

It was just that this kind of speculation was too absurd, and he didn't believe it at all. His biggest advantage was divine sense. Cooperating with the scarecrow hat, except for those perverted super-god mages in the Royal Mage Corps, only those True Gods could possibly have stronger divine sense than his. How could they not see through the disguise of a planting construct?

No one spoke, all looking at him silently. Even that construct bird transformed into a face, looking at him with a playful expression.

"You... who exactly are you people?" Shaya found his tone trembling. After being caught by the other party, he had thought of many possibilities. There were enemies from the Shenguang Chamber of Commerce who had sneaked in, and it was also possible that peers were hiding here.

In the era of great cleanup, gods registered those who registered, fell those who fell, and hid those who hid. The Monarch was likely some god who had hidden.

But the ability Ang showed was not at all the level that any god could reach. 'Descending' on a planting construct, and the disguise could deceive his divine sense? Even a god coming in person couldn't do it, right?

However, such an absurd thing happened right before his eyes. These guys were definitely not ordinary gods: "Who exactly are you?"

"Ang, come, tell him, who are you?" Negris said teasingly.

Ang tilted his head distressingly. Should he 'say' it? Forget it. Ang walked over and grabbed the air on Shaya's body. The holy radiance was actually forcefully extracted from Shaya's body just like that, continuously gathering on Ang's hands.

Feeling the loss of power, Shaya's face changed drastically, and he struggled desperately, shouting loudly, "Radiance protect the body! Endless radiance! Radiance shines! Radiance..."

The two golden skeletons held him tightly, and all his shouting, besides making the radiance on his body jump a few times, had no other meaning. Anyway, it couldn't escape Ang's hands.

This so-called Temple of Radiance was actually another name for the Church of Light. People were phototropic and yearned for light. Light made people warm, at ease, and clean. As long as they were human, it was logical to give birth to a religion that worshipped light.

If it were replaced by an owl, their world would definitely not give birth to light.

Ang, as the master of the Main God of Light, Little Ghost, and also holding the divine position of Equality and Balance, had an understanding and control of holy light that couldn't be compared to a mere demigod like Shaya who didn't even have divinity.

The holy radiance gathered into a ball of light. Finally, a light shadow was extracted from Shaya's body. Following the detachment of this light shadow, Shaya slumped down like a deflated ball. If he wasn't held by the golden skeletons, he would have slipped to the ground.

"You... who exactly are you? Why can you deprive me of the power of radiance?" Shaya asked tremblingly.

Ang didn't have time to care about him. He ran back to the newly laid substrate quickly, cast holy light, and plundered Shaya's power of radiance. The holy light was cast even more smoothly.

Negris said happily, "Being able to deprive you of your power of radiance, who else could it be? Of course, it's your Main God."

"No, impossible. I saw the Lord of Radiance fall with my own eyes," Shaya said excitedly.

"Hehe, is it possible that there is a Main God higher than your Lord of Radiance?" Negris said.

The Monarch said boringly, "Alright, stop teasing him. Isn't it boring? You guy with bad taste. Shaya, right? You have two choices now. Either go to die, then be reincarnated as an undead creature and pledge allegiance to me."

"*Pfft*—" Shaya almost vomited blood. When he just heard 'stop teasing him', he thought the Monarch was a kind person. It turned out not to be, but wanting to kill him. That would be better to tease him.

"The second choice is to dedicate yourself to him and become his loyal believer," the Monarch asked: "Which one do you choose?"

As the Monarch spoke, his palm slowly pinched toward Shaya's face. If he couldn't make a decision before pinching his face, then he would just pinch him to death.

"The second one, the second one. I dedicate myself to him. Lord, please tell me your divine name," Shaya said hurriedly. He hadn't prepared to be an undead creature. If he could choose, he would of course rather be a believer of radiance.

"My name is, Ang. Can you, farm?"

"Why do I have to farm to serve Radiance?" Shaya muttered with a stomach full of complaints, but his hands didn't dare to stop at all, releasing holy light to shine on the substrate, and holy mushrooms grew one after another.

The only benefit was that the power of radiance turned into divine soul and returned to his body.

"Why can holy mushrooms grow so fast? Just because of the radiance? I also used radiance to shine on it when I planted it before. Why didn't it grow so fast? There's a problem with this substrate," Shaya muttered again.

Shaya was planting holy mushrooms there, and Ang was extracting the holy mushrooms picked off here. Negris had complained before that Shaya's essence liquid wasn't deactivated, but Ang didn't deactivate it when extracting either. He directly filtered out the spores.

Very quickly, a large bucket of holy essence liquid was prepared.

Shaya's eyes glowed: "I know why you would say that the tail water is thicker than my bottle of muscle-generating potion. This is too thick, isn't it?"

Negris said proudly, "You haven't seen the purified one. That kind is even thicker."

Ang didn't have much divine power, so he couldn't bear to use the spot-removing technique to purify it. Otherwise, the essence liquid could be even thicker, just like rice paste.

However, Negris was purely mouth-itchy. Concentrating holy essence liquid had no meaning. Instead, it had more uses after dilution. A little thinner was face cream, a little thinner was nutrient solution, a little thinner was skin care water, a little thinner was moisturizing water, and a little thinner was facial mask...

Having gained something, Shaya's enthusiasm suddenly increased, and he seriously served that mushroom field. For the next period of time, he forcefully grew holy mushrooms that could extract several large buckets of essence liquid.

The days of planting things were happy for Ang, so time passed very quickly. Half a month later, Silver Coin sent a message: "My lord, the farm has been sold. You are now a Shenguang Duke with one billion anonymous magic crystal vouchers and a territory of one thousand square kilometers."
