482: God of conspiracy
While some people disparaged Qin Shilei, countless survivors strongly supported Qin Shilei.
For a time, the topic of how humanity's civilization should continue was hotly debated in the chat channel.
Qin Shilei also saw these comments, neither participating in the discussion nor getting angry at others' attacks.
His subordinates, however, couldn't stand it and immediately tried to defend the image of Qin An King in the chat channel.
It's just that the supporters of those gods became more and more excessive.
"Qin An King is nothing! He will surely die in two years!"
"Don't look at him as a Diamond Seven-star expert; in front of Your God, he is as weak as an ant."
"Didn't Qin An King attack cities and fortresses everywhere a while ago? Why is he now cowering in Great Xia like a turtle?"
"Qin An King is a selfish aggressor; only blind people would believe he is the future of Blue Star."
Facing the increasingly vicious insults from those people, Qin Shilei's subordinates finally couldn't hold back and came together to Qin An Royal Mansion.
"Your King, please allow me to lead a hundred members of the Night to destroy the temples of their so-called gods and let them see if those gods are truly omnipotent?"
Zhang Qiang respectfully bowed, then directly stated his purpose.
"Zhang Qiang, calm down!"
Qin Shilei said indifferently, "If you destroy the temple, they can still make another idol. If you can't completely prohibit them from believing in those gods like in Tianzhu, you won't be able to prevent the gods from descending to Blue Star again. Why bother wasting effort on such a meaningless task?"
"Besides, are you sure this is the idea of gods like Audin and Hela, and not a conspiracy by some schemer to make us fight among ourselves?"
"This..." Zhang Qiang said indignantly, "Are we just going to let them insult Qin An King as they please?"
"Of course not."
A hint of coldness flashed in Qin Shilei's eyes. "Wait a little longer. I believe it won't be long before they completely submit to our Great Xia."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qiang and the others all showed surprised expressions.
Since Qin An King already had a plan, Zhang Qiang and the others no longer paid attention to the comments in the chat channel, settling down to diligently improve their cultivation.
While Qin Shilei and the others continued their secluded cultivation, many divine avatars appeared on Blue Star.
These divine avatars easily killed the Other World powerhouses who invaded Blue Star, helping the survivors reclaim much living space.
These gods also gained a large number of followers as a result.
In the splendid temple of Usto city.
The idol suddenly flashed with a dark light, and then Rudolph's avatar appeared before Caesar the Great.
Caesar the Great respectfully bowed and said, "Greetings, Your God!"
Rudolph nodded. "Have you arranged for people to continue attacking Qin An King in the chat channel?"
Caesar the Great replied, "Everything is proceeding as Your God commanded."
He paused and then added, "It's just that the two gods, Audin and Hela, have snatched a large number of our followers. Should we take corresponding measures?"
Rudolph smiled meaningfully. "It's good that they snatched them. I'll even send them another big gift."
Caesar the Great's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Does Your God have any other plans?"
Rudolph smiled but did not answer, instead saying, "You go down and continue to do a good job of receiving followers."
After the other party left, he whispered, "I am the God of Conspiracy. With only followers and no conspiracy, how can I live up to my divine name?"
After speaking, he transformed into a phantom and flew eastward.
Soon, he arrived in the territory of Great Xia.
Rudolph's figure shifted, and his appearance completely changed into that of Audin.
Then he concealed his figure and flew into a distant city... Qin An Royal Mansion.
Shi Liren handed a document to Qin Shilei and then said, "Reporting to Your King, our vassal states also seem to be influenced by those people in the chat channel, showing signs of believing in various gods."
Qin Shilei frowned. "Have avatars of gods also appeared in those vassal states?"
Shi Liren shook his head and said, "No, but idols of gods like Audin and Hela have appeared in many temples, churches, and shrines. Many survivors pray to those idols every day."
Qin Shilei pondered for a moment and then commanded, "You all pay close attention to these situations. Once a divine avatar appears, notify me immediately. Also, such a situation is absolutely not allowed within Great Xia's borders."
Due to manpower issues, Qin An Royal Mansion did not implement direct management like Tianzhu for the various vassal states, which were more than ten times the size of Great Xia.
Qin An Royal Mansion had dozens of vassal states, and in the past, they believed in a wide variety of gods, everything imaginable.
This issue of faith could be big or small, but Qin Shilei was unable, or rather, temporarily lacked the energy to forcibly demand that they become atheists.
Six months later.
Qin Shilei's cultivation had reached Diamond Nine-star, and he was about to begin his promotion to the Master Realm.
He was cultivating in the Blessed Land when he was called out by Tan Anguo through a phantom avatar.
Tan Anguo frowned and said, "The influence of those gods in our vassal states is growing. Just now, the envoy from the Will Empire sent a request, asking if they could reduce their monthly tribute."
"Because they need to allocate a portion of their crystals to pay for the temple's expenses."
A cold light flashed in Qin Shilei's eyes, and he said coldly, "Is this because they think they can rely on those gods to resist the invasion of foreign races, believing that they can survive the apocalypse without Qin An Royal Mansion, and want to kick us out?"
Tan Anguo nodded. "Indeed, although we haven't discovered it, those gods must have revealed themselves, making those people feel they have something to rely on and are preparing to switch their allegiance to the gods."
Qin Shilei asked indifferently, "Is it only the Will Empire, or are all the vassal states like this?"
Tan Anguo replied, "Currently, only the Will Empire has made this request, but the influence of the gods in other vassal states is gradually surpassing Qin An Royal Mansion. Their admiration for you has also gradually dropped to its lowest point."
"It seems this King needs to make a move, otherwise, some people will truly think Qin has no temper."
A cold light flashed in Qin Shilei's eyes, and he was preparing to reveal his divinity in the vassal states.
He summoned Shi Liren, thoroughly understood all the intelligence, and then rose and flew towards the Will Empire.
The Will Empire had only about 500,000 square kilometers of land, with about 1.2 million survivors distributed among three cities.
Qin Shilei flew directly to its capital, Ellington.
He entered a church in Ellington and found that in the center was an idol wearing golden armor, while the church's former idol had been pushed to a corner.
The church was packed with people, all with their hands clasped, praying devoutly.
Qin Shilei casually glanced around, found no fluctuations from the idol, and then turned to go to the Will's palace.
"Greetings, Your Royal Highness Qin An King!" Harry, the monarch of Will, bowed.
Qin Shilei frowned.
Although the other party's attitude could be considered respectful, there was no trace of subservience.
And he merely bowed without kneeling.
