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

Zeng Shen stood at the edge of the observation deck, his gaze sweeping over the girls in the adaptation area, some shyly hiding their faces, others curiously fiddling with the transparent wing membranes, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

After Ye Li gave the loudspeaker command, most of the girls, though still blushing, bit their lips and imitated the gesture of bowing to Zeng Shen in their dreams, bowing slightly and saying in unison, "Greetings, Master."

"Don't be so formal."

Zeng Shen's voice was gentle, yet carried an undeniable power, amplified through the loudspeaker and resonating throughout the entire adaptation area, reaching the depths of every girl's heart.

"I granted you extraordinary power so that you could lead your families to survive better in the upcoming alien cataclysm, not simply to make you my puppets or my mere followers. Rather, it is so that you can grow into one of my outstanding subordinate deities in the future cataclysm, to meet the invasion of extraterrestrial deities in the more distant future, and to jointly protect our planet and home."

Upon hearing Zeng Shen's words, all the beautiful girls below the viewing platform couldn't help but smile slightly.

As they entered the starship, they saw in a promotional video for the Super God Project that alien monsters roamed freely, cities were reduced to ruins, and people fled in terror, ultimately becoming food for the monsters.

therefore.

After listening to Zeng Shen's words.

Among the crowd, a young woman from the Shizhen clan, with long, light purple hair, long, slender legs like bamboo tubes, a slender waist, a firm and white figure, a pair of butterfly wings on her back that faintly shimmered with a ghostly green light, a snow-white face, and delicate features, mustered her courage and looked up. Her clear eyes reflected Zeng Shen's figure: "Master, in the future... can we really become your subordinate gods and possess even greater power?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she noticed that everyone's eyes were on her.

She couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Behind her, a pair of translucent butterfly wings trembled slightly, scattering tiny fluorescent lights.

Similarly, Zeng Shen looked over upon hearing the voice and saw the nervous expression on the person's face. He smiled slightly and said, "That's right. As long as you believe in me sincerely enough and dedicate everything to me, I can give you more than you can imagine, and help your families survive the catastrophe better."

As he spoke, Zeng Shen conveyed a command through his consciousness to the Fairy of Hope, who was following him and could only be seen by him.

That is to activate its talents: Hope Domain and Hope Aura.

The Realm of Hope can inspire strong hope and a positive mindset in all living beings within it, ultimately allowing them to unleash 100% of their full potential in a short period of time (the boost is doubled for each level of the Hope Fairy's aptitude).

The Aura of Hope is a passive talent. As long as the Fairy of Hope exists in the Realm of Hope, the creatures around her will unconsciously develop the emotion of pursuing hope.

therefore.

Zeng Shen's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears, awakening the faith that had been implanted in their hearts by the Nightmare Clan according to the script given by Xiao Ai in their dreams.

and so.

The moment his voice stopped, the girl who had just asked the question suddenly reddened her eyes and uttered a voice yearning for power: "I am willing to dedicate everything to follow my master. I hope my master will give me more power so that I can better protect my family in the future."

Done.

Her powerful inner need transformed into a strong obsession, and finally, it turned into a glimmer of faith that flowed into Zeng Shen's body.

At that same moment, the other girls also felt a surge of faith emanating from their bodies, flowing into Zeng Shen's body. They each had their own needs, but without exception, they all shared a common thought: as long as they believed in Zeng Shen, their wishes would be fulfilled.

Xiao Ai watched as these European girls, following the script she had meticulously laid out, developed a strong belief in their master. After this belief transformed into faith, she said to Zeng Shen with great satisfaction, "Master, the girls in this adaptation zone have all successfully become your followers. Do you want to take them away and train them properly, or go to other sub-starships first?"

“Let’s go to the other sub-starships first. After we’re done with this, I’ll lead them through the baptism and guide them on how to better control their abilities.” Zeng Shen said, then asked the girl who had spoken earlier, “What’s your name?”

“Master, my name is Etrara,” the Shizhen girl immediately replied.

“Alright, Etralara, organize all the adaptable girls here and help them master their skills as soon as possible. In a couple of days, a large number of opponents will appear in the Black City below you. At that time, I will arrange a beast invasion to eliminate the opponents. Finally, I will send you there to demonstrate your strength, repel or eliminate the beasts, and sound the alarm for the world that the beasts really exist. Don’t have any illusions,” Zeng Shen said.

Upon hearing this, Etrala frowned slightly, but after understanding Zeng Shen's true intentions and good intentions, she immediately replied, "Yes, Master, we know what to do."

"it is good."

Zeng Shen nodded, then turned his gaze to a corner of the adaptation area, where a silent demon girl stood.

This girl has some mixed-race genes from the Great Xia people; she has a full chest, a tall figure, and exudes an elegant Eastern temperament.

At this moment, she was curled up against the wall, her black hair hanging down, covering half of her face, while a drop of saliva with a faint blue luster unconsciously gathered at her fingertips.

Xiao Ai followed Zeng Shen's gaze and then explained, "Master, her name is Mo Ya. Before her transformation, she was a red nun in Black City arranged by the Vatican. She was expelled for refusing to participate in the opposition to the Super God Project. Hmm, she doesn't seem to have become a believer yet. I think she might just be... a little resistant to her past identity."

"Ah."

Zeng Shen responded softly, then floated down and landed in front of Mo Ya.

Mo Ya suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with wariness and unease. She subconsciously took a step back, but Zeng Shen squatted down, took out the memory crystal, and then gently touched her forehead with his fingertip.

In an instant, fragments of memories belonging to Mo Ya's growth rushed into the memory crystal—an abandoned baby, adopted and raised in an orphanage, entering a church, her outstanding beauty attracting the attention of the church's higher-ups, being used as a bargaining chip to befriend the powerful, refusing to compromise, becoming their plaything, the church's cross, the bishop's reprimands, the cold night of being pushed out the door...

"Sigh, your faith should not be tainted by those hypocrites." Zeng Shen couldn't help but sigh after reading all of Mo Ya's past in the memory crystal.

Followed by.

His voice was soft, yet it enveloped Mo Ya's tense nerves like a warm current as he slowly continued, "From now on, you only need to believe in me—I will give you a protection more reliable than the cross."

Mo Ya stared blankly at Zeng Shen, as if she had seen a glimmer of hope. Tears suddenly streamed down her face, and she knelt on the ground, her voice choked with sobs: "Master... I am willing to follow you..."

“Okay.” Zeng Shen’s voice was still very soft as he continued, “Master your abilities. Two days later, after defeating the alien beasts, I will place the Faith Church in the Black City below. You will then guide those followers in the Black City who aspire to become members of the Gods but were not selected, to become field agents within the Faith Church.”

"Yes, Master," Mo Ya replied immediately. (End of Chapter)
