The system was set three years in advance, but the universal deities still hadn't arrived.

Zeng Shen, seemingly oblivious to Oklon's shocked expression, reiterated, "I said, you can lend me this money first, and I'll pay you back when I make some money."

"What a joke," Oclon retorted angrily after confirming he hadn't misheard. "Do you think I have that much money?"

"How could you not have it? You are the most promising son of the Elven gods, the most likely to become a high god. If you just snap your fingers, those forces on Abyss Star who want to curry favor with your family will naturally be willing to give you money."

Zeng Shen squinted as he spoke, pausing slightly before saying, "Of course, if you're unwilling to use your identity, then call your mentor out. I'm sure your mentor would be more than willing to prepare these things for me in order to track my location."

Upon hearing this, Oklon's head, formed from black mist, trembled violently. He angrily retorted, "Zeng Shen, you're a bastard! What have I done to offend you that you're toying with me like this?"

“Now that you are my subordinate god, aren’t these things you should be sharing with me? How can you say I’m making fun of you? Besides, once my game is fully ready for release, as my subordinate god, I can make you my agent on Abyss Star,” Zeng Shen said.

When Oklon heard the first half of Zeng Shen's sentence, his expression, which was about to explode with anger, changed completely because of the second half of the sentence.

If what Zeng Shen said is true, becoming the agent of the virtual game Elf World on Abyss Star would mean earning at least several million Divine Source Coins a year.

After all, to obtain the source code of a game from the War Academy, one would need at least 100 million God Source Coins and the consent of at least three high-ranking gods.

Therefore, most of the games on Abyss Star are games that families want to publish, and they can only obtain the agency rights from the War Academy through connections.

After all, they might be able to scrape together 100 million Divine Source Coins, but they might not be able to get the consent of at least three High Gods to sell you the entire Divine Source Code.

Therefore, if someone has the distribution rights to a game with amazing source code, it's like having a money tree.

Thinking of this, Oclon's anger turned to slight delight as he asked, "Are you serious? Are you sure you want me to be the game's distributor on Abyss Star?"

"As the saying goes, if you want a dog to run, you can't not feed it. If you want to cultivate an obedient subordinate god, you can't not feed the subordinate god a piece of meat." Zeng Shen said, pausing slightly, and continued, "If you don't believe me, I swear now that as long as you cooperate with me to get this game running and launch it on Abyss Star in the future, I will make you the agent for this game on Abyss Star."

“You,” Oklon was furious again when he heard Zeng Shen compare him to a dog, but he quickly calmed down after realizing that Zeng Shen was going to give him the role of his future agent, and said, “The things you want all need to be customized, which will take some time.”

Upon seeing that Oclon had agreed, Zeng Shen immediately pressed, "How quickly at the earliest?"

“A month and a half,” Oklon said after a moment’s thought.

"A month and a half is January next year." Zeng Shen muttered to himself, then nodded and said, "Okay, have everything ready for me in a month and a half, then I'll come back to you for it."

Done.

Zeng Shen didn't waste a single word with Oklon. With a slight focus of his consciousness, he quickly took out the wormhole orbital card and swiftly returned to his orbit in the Heroic Spirit Tavern.

After all, he didn't want Oklon to realize that this future agent would be entirely at his discretion, whether it was a revenue-sharing arrangement, an exclusive buyout, or some other contractual profit-sharing arrangement.

Of course, if he comes to his senses by then, we can talk about it again later. If he wants more, then he shouldn't complain about constantly delaying the release date on Abyss Star.

In short, let him buy the things he needs first.

As for why he didn't let Hua Kali be his agent, he didn't want to be lured into Chedemos's clutches.

After making his plans, Zeng Shen opened the Gate of the Divine Realm and returned to the living room of Shenhuo Manor. He then opened the Gate of the Divine Realm, which was located at the entrance of the large cavern where the Winged Woman Clan of the Gathering Spirit Cave resided.

As soon as the gate to the divine realm opened, Zeng Shen took out a suborbital card and set a track at the entrance of the cave. Just as he was about to walk inside, he suddenly heard Yin Xia's voice coming from a medium-sized cave next to the large one. Instantly…

Curious, he walked toward the medium-sized cave.

As soon as Zeng Shen arrived at the entrance of this medium-sized cave, he discovered that the cave, which was originally dark and damp when he last passed by, had now been transformed and looked brand new.

A sign with the words "Tutoring Room" hangs at the entrance of the cave. The cave walls are inlaid with glowing crystals, and the soft light illuminates the entire space. The ground is covered with soft moss, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance of flowers.

Yinxia was standing in front of a huge crystal screen, explaining the basics of programming to a group of Winged Women sitting at desks below.

At this moment, Yinxia resembled a professional teacher, dressed in a simple white robe, her long silver hair casually tied back, her voice gentle and patient as she spoke:
"A variable is like a container that can store various types of data."

The Winged Women listened attentively, occasionally tapping their hands on the tablet screens in front of them, as if taking notes of what Yinxia was saying.

"God Lord!"

Suddenly, a clear voice rang out behind Zeng Shen.

Zeng Shen turned his head and saw the Winged Maiden Ai Yali standing in front of him, holding a notebook.

Her call broke the silence of the classroom, and all the Winged Maidens turned around, stood up and bowed to Zeng Shen.

Yinxia had actually seen Zeng Shen earlier, but she stopped explaining and nodded to him.

"What are you doing outside?" Zeng Shen asked, looking at Aya Li.

"I overslept, so I'm late," Aya said apologetically.

"Haha," Zeng Shen couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this, "Go in and start class."

“Yes, Lord God.” Aya nodded quickly and walked into the classroom cave.

At that moment, Yinxia transformed into a string of 0s and 1s and flew to Zeng Shen.

"How is the teaching going?" Zeng Shen asked.

Yinxia pushed up glasses that weren't actually on her nose—a habit she'd picked up from Earth: "Things are going better than expected. The Winged Women have a strong learning ability, especially when it comes to graphical programming. They'll be able to help me out very quickly."

"That's good," Zeng Shen nodded slightly and continued, "The equipment you need needs to be customized, and it will probably be available in January next year."

"Understood, Master." Yinxia nodded.

"Go to class, don't worry about me." Zeng Shen said, turning around and leaving the medium-sized cave to find Ether.

He hadn't taken more than two steps when he saw Ether, accompanied by several winged maidens, approach him and gracefully bow, saying, "Master, we have planned out the new territory these past few days, and have reserved an area in the center as the location for you to place the Saintess Pool."

"Quickly! Come on, let's go take a look." Zeng Shen smiled, reaching out to put his arm around Aethera, his hand naturally slipping inside her leather armor. (End of Chapter)
