Qin Shilei closed the chat channel and entered Amelia with Mary.
Their target this time was the former followers of Odin.
Although most of the people here had already pledged allegiance to Qin Shilei, it was impossible to guarantee that there were no loyal followers of Odin hidden among them.
Once those people summoned Odin to this place through some ritual, this relatively safe world would be completely exposed.
Qin Shilei decided to first convert the millions of humans here into Mary's followers.
Those people had built five cities in total, and the two first arrived at the city managed by Gavin.
At this time, the city already had many buildings.
However, all these buildings were made of wood or stone.
The survivors in the city, like ancient humans, were diligently building the city using some handcrafted tools and swords.
Although it was hard, most people had hope in their faces. Youkan Shu Le.
Here, even though there were strange beasts outside the city, they did not have to live a life of precariousness.
When Qin Shilei and Mary arrived above the city, they no longer concealed their aura.
The oppressive aura caused the survivors below to look up at Qin Shilei and them. Kan Shu Wu. Xia.
Gavin and the Golden Evolvers also flew from the city to the sky to greet them, "Greetings, Prince Qin An and Madam!"
Qin Shilei pointed to Mary and instructed Gavin, "From now on, my wife Mary will be the object of your worship.
Each city needs to build one main temple and twenty secondary temples.
Everyone in the city must recite this scripture once a day.
Every month, all survivors in the city will gather to pray and recite scriptures.
The God of the Void - Empress Mary, will evaluate the loyalty of each of you. Sincere believers will be promoted. Unbelievers will be expelled from this world and their fate will be their own responsibility!"
Gavin and the others were stunned, not understanding why Qin Shilei had suddenly bestowed a deity upon them.
However, they quickly responded respectfully, "We obey Your Highness's decree!"
"Let's go, let's build the main temple first."
After Qin Shilei finished speaking, he flew towards the center of the city first.
Gavin's city lord's mansion was built in the center of the city.
Qin Shilei landed on the ground of the city lord's mansion and waved his hand, collecting several luxurious wooden houses opposite the mansion and clearing a large open space.
Mary flew above the open space, and her body suddenly began to grow rapidly, quickly becoming a giant thirty to forty meters tall.
"I am the God of the Void, and also the guardian god of Amelia, and the guardian god of all of you!"
"Those who sincerely recite my divine name will surely receive my protection!"
"Unbelievers will surely be expelled from Amelia, and their fate will be their own responsibility!"
A majestic voice instantly resounded throughout the city, deeply imprinted in the hearts of many survivors.
"This is my main temple, completed!"
Mary pointed her hand downwards, and instantly a magnificent temple descended from the sky, slowly landing on the open space at her feet.
Boom!
The first modern building in this world stood steadily opposite the city lord's mansion, yet it was even more magnificent and solemn.
Qin Shilei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He had gone to great lengths just now to ensure that the temple landed steadily on the ground.
Turning back, he instructed Gavin again, "Arrange for people to build the remaining twenty temples as soon as possible, and send storytellers to publicize the might of the God of the Void among the survivors according to this information!
And this scripture is the scripture of the God of the Void, so let everyone engrave it in their hearts."
With that, he handed a document of several pages to Gavin.
It recorded the legendary deeds of Mary's wisdom and might.
Of course, most of it was fabricated, but what did it matter?
After dealing with this place, Qin Shilei, following the same pattern, accompanied Mary to the remaining four cities.
The survivors here dared not have any objection.
In the main temple.
Mary sat cross-legged, concentrating and activating the Myriad Thoughts Scripture.
Qin Shilei had already extracted the "Manifestation of Heaven and Earth" attribute from Mary and had temporarily placed the "Monster" attribute on her.
As soon as the Myriad Thoughts Scripture was activated, Mary immediately sensed the power of faith drifting from all around.
"Brother Qin, I can really sense the power of faith. Can I really become a god by relying on this power of faith?"
Mary asked with surprise and joy.
"You are thinking too simply."
Qin Shilei smiled helplessly, "You are only at Diamond One Star now. You can only consider becoming a god when you reach the peak of Diamond."
He paused and said again, "Can you sense how many people believe in you now? Can you sense who believes in you and respond to them?"
Mary closed her eyes again and sensed.
After a while, she opened her eyes again, "About one to two hundred thousand people believe in me. I can distinguish those who are my believers if they are close, but I cannot distinguish those who are too far away. As for responding to them, I cannot do that yet.
However, these believers are all superficial believers, and the power of faith they dedicate is extremely limited."
Qin Shilei asked again, "What is the specific distance you are talking about?"
Mary replied, "The scope of this city is acceptable."
Qin Shilei said with satisfaction, "That is enough."
Three days later.
"Today is the final deadline I give you. If you cannot become a believer of my wife, then the only way is to leave."
Qin Shilei said indifferently to Gavin and the others.
Gavin said nervously, "We have done our best to become believers of the Mistress, and we hope Your Highness will see clearly."
Regarding their own survival and future, the millions of survivors in the entire world recited the scriptures distributed by Qin Shilei almost day and night, almost hypnotizing themselves into becoming Mary's believers.
The survivors of the five cities sat down cross-legged at the same time and began to recite the scriptures specially crafted by Qin Shilei.
Qin Shilei and Mary flew in the sky above the city. From time to time, someone was pointed out by Mary, then captured by Qin Shilei, and thrown into the Mountains and Rivers Map.
After spending more than half a day, all the people were finally selected.
"Reporting to the God of the Void and Prince Qin An, my loyalty to the Empress is as clear as the sun and moon. I hope Your Excellencies will see clearly!"
As soon as the survivors thrown into the Mountains and Rivers Map were released, someone immediately knelt down and shouted.
"Don't worry, your loyalty is indeed genuine. We picked you out to manage affairs at the temple."
Qin Shilei comforted them with a smile.
Hearing this, the remaining thousands of people were all filled with joy.
Many people's eyes also showed a strange look.
However, their joy had just arisen when it was extinguished by Qin Shilei's words.
"You hundreds of people are loyal and trustworthy, and you will be the first level of leadership in the temple. As for the rest, with ulterior motives, you will be expelled from Amelia from now on."
Qin Shilei quickly divided these thousands of people into two groups.
One group was entrusted with important responsibilities, while the other was given an expulsion equivalent to a death sentence.
Because those expelled became cannon fodder for the Prince An's Mansion, people that the Prince An's Mansion could dispatch at will, and tools for earning crystal cores, they would eventually die at the hands of strange beasts.
