My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1515

[1506. Chapter 1482: Loopholes in divine arts, priest inheritance!]

However, although the tense atmosphere had become so thick that it was almost solidified, until the fifth day of the gambling game, the two sides still miraculously maintained a delicate balance and did not allow the conflict to escalate further.

There is no other reason.

Both humans and aliens are waiting for the game to release real-time data from the gambling fight.

As long as you can gain a clear advantage in the gambling fight, you will naturally be able to gain an exponential boost in morale in the outside world.

However, if you see this data after the war has started and find that your side is at a disadvantage, it is very likely that you will suffer a crushing defeat and cause a major rout.

Eastern New World.

The palace where alien races gather.

Yin Yuan closed the game panel, retracted his gaze and looked towards the shadows inside the room.

“According to your design, as long as the human Su Mo enters the gambling space, he will definitely choose to take the path of a god, and will eventually be firmly tied down by our rules.” His voice was low and magnetic, and every word revealed unquestionable confidence.

“I have to remind you that this is the critical moment to verify whether your design will be successful!”

giggle.

As soon as the words fell, a few cold and strange laughs immediately echoed in the shadows, like the low hum of a night owl, making people feel chilly.

“Lord Yin Yuan, we never said that we can get rid of Su Mo now, and we don’t believe that the ambushes at the beginning will bring Su Mo down. After all, what kind of threat he is, you aliens should know much more clearly than us humans, but…” The voice in the shadow deliberately prolonged the ending tone, revealing a sense of cunning.

“But what?”

Yin Yuan was not angry, and his reaction was so calm as if he was already used to the other party’s response.

In the past few months of dealing with humans, the other party has indeed demonstrated its abilities with some practical actions.

And now it’s time to reap the fruits of your labor, but you’re starting to question yourself now. What were you doing before?

“But the ambush we designed is always useful. Even if we can’t cause him any big trouble at the moment, we can use the data released by the game to infer the difficulties he is currently facing. As long as there is no problem at this step, he will definitely fall into the trap we prepared step by step and die.”

“oh?”

Upon hearing this, Yin Yuan raised a meaningful smile.

His huge body also rose and fell gently with his breathing, constantly inhaling and exhaling the surrounding air, stirring up tiny whirlpools of wind.

“It sounds good. OK, when the data is released, I hope you can give me a good explanation.”

Soon, it was eight o’clock in the morning.

Several humans in the shadows immediately opened the game panel and began to carefully examine the data published by the game.

Since this dispute of faith will not be broadcast live to the public, all the data is in text form.

The list is divided into three categories:
Strength list.

Tribal leaderboard.

Faith list.

The strength list refers to the players’ current divine magic rank after they obtain divine magic talents.

The tribal list shows the size of the player’s tribe, sorted by size, and only records the tribes controlled by the player. If you just join the tribe, you will not be on the list.

The final faith list is more complicated, requiring players to take root in the faith world and create their own faith.

The ranking is determined by the number and quality of believers.

And currently on the strength list, the human column is indeed empty.

Five days had passed, and still no one had acquired divine talent and was qualified to participate in the ranking.

On the other hand, for the alien race, the list can only record one thousand names, and it is all full.

The strongest person has reached the eighth level of priest, and his progress is far beyond that of humans.

“Hahaha, it seems that my choice was correct. Humans have no talent for divine arts at all. Even Somo has not been able to obtain the blessing of talent for such a long time!” Yin Yuan was overjoyed.

And when he turned to the second tribal list, he saw Su Mo hanging there all alone.

“How arrogant! I didn’t expect he would actually dare to step into the trap we prepared!”

Yin Yuan put away his smile again and snorted coldly.

“So, has he fallen into the trap you prepared?”

“Yes, our main plan was successful.”

It can be heard that several humans in the shadows breathed a sigh of relief after reading the data.

What they were most worried about was that Su Mo would not play by the rules and would give up on the path of becoming a god.

In this way, no matter how many killing moves they arrange later, as long as Su Mo chooses to surrender and withdraw at the critical moment, then this plan will be considered a complete failure.

“Next, there will be difficulties step by step. When he realizes that things are irreversible, he won’t be able to escape even if he wants to!”

The world of faith.

Fire Fist Tribe.

After realizing that he had finished demonstrating his magic, Soma fell into a thoughtful silence.

Thomas paused and said loudly: “If the clan leader has any doubts, you can tell me everything. I have traveled to many places in the wasteland in my early years, so I may be able to explain something.”

A sad reality that we have to face.

Actually, Su Mo is already the thirteenth chief of the Fire Fist Tribe.

Thomas was the second priest of the Fire Fist Tribe. He alone outlasted seven tribal leaders.

“Well, I was thinking, since the priest’s rank is affected by the number of times he releases a spell, then haven’t we humans developed a ninth-level spell that can be released many times a day to quickly increase the rank?”

Soma grasped the problem with this system.

Using the number of releases to divide strength is indeed a simplistic and crude way of division.

As long as we can ensure that the divine arts possessed by humans are kept under control no matter how they are combined or how many divine minerals are used to increase the number of releases per day.

Then, within a year, no player will be able to upgrade to a high level, and the power structure of the world at the beginning of its construction will not be affected or changed.

However, this crude approach also leaves a glaring loophole.

What if humans mastered a magic that could be released a hundred, two hundred, or even a thousand times a day?

It is possible that the power of this divine spell is very small, or even not combat-oriented, but the upgrade of the priest’s level does not mention any restrictions on the power or type of divine spells.

As long as the divine spell has obtained a grade, it can be recorded in the number of times the divine spell is released.

By mastering this method, even if there are not enough sacred minerals, it is still equivalent to having the ability to mass-produce high-level priests.

“I have indeed heard of the magic you mentioned, Patriarch. It is said that in the rare rifts, the tribes of hundreds of thousands of people have mastered a variety of basic magic arts. Although these magic arts are of low level, the number of times they can be released every day is ten times that of magic arts of the same level!”

“Oh? Then why are they unwilling to share it with other humans?” Su Mo asked in surprise.

Considering the current situation of human beings in the world of faith, only by allowing more people to become priests and increasing their strength can human beings get out of the radiation rifts and kill the black disaster monsters.

“It’s not that we don’t want to share, but the cost of sharing is too high.” Thomas shook his head and sighed.

“Chief, do you know how the parchment scroll I gave you was made?”

“Parchment”

Su Mo pondered.

The parchment scroll certainly did not look like an ordinary item, nor did it look like something a small tribe like the Fire Fist could possess.

“From the beginning, the magic arts that priests mastered were rewards from the gods, not something that we humans figured out on our own. Therefore, due to this restriction, we priests cannot tell other humans about the specific content of the magic arts through oral transmission, even if the other party is also a priest.”

“So everyone had to find another way to pass on the skills, and finally found the only way, which was to use a special method to engrave the skills they mastered on a carrier before they died. This way, later generations who were gifted with skills could read the carrier and try to learn these skills.”

“However, let’s not talk about the success rate of this method. Even if the burning is successful, the number of times the carrier can be read and studied is fixed, depending on the strength of the priest. For example, the parchment scroll in our hands will become completely ineffective after being studied by three people.”

“Hmm? Is that so?”

Su Mo’s heart was shocked.

The humans who designed the world of faith were truly well-planned and had even taken this into consideration.

If the inheritance of divine arts can only be achieved through the death of old people and the acquisition of new people, then the number of priests is actually fixed!
Even human players who enter the world of faith have obtained three kilograms of divine ore, held a prayer ceremony, and obtained divine arts talent.

There will also be a group of people who have no place to inherit divine arts, resulting in them having talent but being unable to practice and use it.

“Too cruel!”

Su Mo couldn’t help but raise his previous evaluation of the designer by one point again.

However, what Thomas said was not all bad news. For example, there are indeed divine arts of the same level but with ten times the number of releases.

Since it exists, can we directly use the system to upgrade it and create a magic spell that is exclusive to the Fire Fist Tribe to gain experience?
The current dilemma is that the high priest Shadu of the Thunder Tribe is too strong.

But as long as Thomas’ strength can be raised to the same level as Sadhu, or even stronger than Sadhu, the current dilemma will be easily solved.

Thinking of this, Su Mo suddenly couldn’t help coughing twice and felt a tightness in his chest.

Forehead.

Caught a cold?
Su Mo felt helpless as he felt something strange coming from his body.

The people who designed the gambling space reduced the physical fitness of all participating players to their original state, which undoubtedly indirectly increased the threat of nuclear winter.

But then again, it is quite impressive that the body that was beaten back to its original form could endure a four-day long journey in cold weather.

Keep all your thoughts to yourself for now.

After telling Thomas that he would find a way, Su Mo strolled around the Fire Fist Tribe.

There are a total of sixty-seven houses in the tribe for people to live in.

Most of them are simply built with simple wooden boards, tree barks and animal furs. The roof covering is thin and the corners will be lifted up by the wind.

Many of the houses were empty and were temporarily requisitioned by the tribe to be turned into storage warehouses. Judging from the dust covering the miscellaneous items, it could be judged that the owners had not returned for a long time.

Walking along the tribal paths, Suma could see that the residents were doing everything they could to make up for their material scarcity.

The worn-out clothes have been patched so many times that it is hard to tell what color they were originally.

The women wore large shoes that didn’t fit their feet, and they walked unsteadily.

Several men sat outside the house, making daily necessities using discarded metal fragments and old wood collected from somewhere unknown.

“Chief, you are awake. Yesterday’s candy was so delicious!”

“Chief, Chief, when can we get candy like that again?”

“Chief, can you be a priest now?”

“Chief, look at the weather this year. I’m afraid the food harvest is not optimistic. What should we do?”

“Patriarch.”

When Su Mo walked by, the men and women in the tribe immediately came up to him, showing no restraint at all.

Perhaps it was because everyone didn’t know that the food was about to run out. From the naked eye, Su Mo felt that the mental state of these people was healthier than those of the survivors who had been in the wasteland for three years.

Is this the power of faith?
Thinking this way, Su Mo quickly walked to the most important place in the entire tribe.

greenhouse.

“Chief, why are you here so late?”

Nong Cao, the devout believer who was in charge of the greenhouse, came over, his dark face still covered in dirt.

Behind him was an oval-shaped yurt, about four times the size of an ordinary house.

With the heat provided by the heating tower, the plants in the greenhouse grow quite fast and are an important source of food for the survivors in the world of faith.

“Are you still tending the fields so late?”

“Hey, I just dug out a batch of potatoes. Although they are a little small, they can still fill my stomach.”

Nong Cao smiled foolishly, pushed open the door of the greenhouse, and Su Mo walked in.

The smell inside was not pleasant. The manure buckets used for fertilizer were placed on the right side of the entrance, four large buckets in total.

However, in this environment, apparently no one cares whether it stinks or not.

Su Mo bent down and picked up a potato from the pile of potatoes he had dug out during farm work. The potato was about the size of half a fist.

“We grow early-maturing varieties, which can be harvested in about fifty days.”

“Only potatoes?” Su Mo raised his head.

“We only have potatoes now. We used to grow wheat, but the last time the Thunder Tribe came to plunder us, they not only took away our flour, but also all the seeds.”

Potatoes alone are not enough.
Although potatoes contain more starch and dietary fiber and are good carbohydrates, humans need a lot of minerals and vitamins, as well as dozens of different amino acids to survive.

If you cannot obtain it from food, your body will become thinner and weaker.

Before entering the gambling space, Su Mo put a lot of high-yield and disaster-resistant seeds that had been improved several times in the Tianyuan Territory into the soul carrier just in case.

But distant water cannot quench immediate thirst. The key now is to overcome the many difficulties that are about to come.
