New concept of the mysterious way to ascend to immortality

Chapter 283 Late Night Teaching Mode
Upon hearing Nie Yin use the term "Red Ripper" as a veiled reference to self-preservation, Yuan Zhu suddenly retorted, "So, you've already found a new job? If you're unhappy with your current job or life, you'll switch to 'The Ripper' and embark on the path to extraordinary power?"

Nie Yin shook his head: "I never thought of falling into such an evil path. I usually only give a small amount of basic faith in exchange for blessings that help my studies. Maintaining an evil faith for many years is only for self-preservation. If I had a choice, I would definitely choose the best and most suitable path for myself."

According to the other party's explanation, her unwavering faith in the "Red Ripper" since childhood is more like a triggered "Deathrattle." When life is about to reach a dead end, she can still choose "once she falls into demonic ways, she will live as long as heaven and earth" to fight back and take revenge, and even live a new life or a second life.

Yuan Zhu withdrew his hand, which was halfway outstretched to pat the other person's head, and then gave an encouraging thumbs up.

With a smile, approval, and affirmation, he encouraged her: "Don't be so discouraged. Life is full of hope and opportunities. Even if you don't like the 'Path of Counter-Law,' I will fully support you in finding the 'extraordinary path' that you like best and that suits you best!"

Seeing that his open and honest revelation of his two 'anonymous beliefs' had a positive effect, Nie Yin responded earnestly: "I will work hard and bring you enough rewards. I will definitely not let you down."

For a moment, the atmosphere was harmonious and peaceful, filled with love and peace. The two young women and men from another world also relaxed, feeling indescribably at ease.

At this moment, Nie Yin casually asked a question that broke the false sense of warmth: "How is your [list of believers] arranged?"

She believes that understanding is mutual. Just like blind dating, it's a back-and-forth, a delicate balance of probing and mutual exploration.

Now that she has revealed her rather private "list of beliefs," she needs to understand her employer's personality by looking at his "annual beliefs."

"Uh……"

When it was his turn, Yuan Zhu felt embarrassed and ashamed, and was unwilling to talk much. Mainly, his [list of believers] was all created by his predecessor, and had absolutely nothing to do with him, the 'Earth Yuan'!
He didn't want to take the blame and inherit this karma.

Unlike Nie Yin's carefully selected blessings, each one accumulated over many years, capable of providing benefits beyond basic commoners and reaching the 'extraordinary threshold' level of faith-based blessings.

Aside from the zodiac animal [the Spider], Yuan Zhu's beliefs are short-sighted, focused only on immediate gains, and frequently changeable.

He's much like those old ladies who like to go to church to get free eggs; whoever gives him the most benefits, he's a loyal believer! He never plans long-term faith investments in the '5-year' timeframe.

Based on fragmented memories from his predecessor, before graduating from high school, he had believed in six "learning-related gods" whose abilities were not particularly impressive. Their main claims revolved around 'improving classroom focus, enhancing memory, increasing comprehension, and guaranteeing passing exams'... but ultimately, the results were all mediocre.

The blessings and protection of mere deities cannot stop your wicked heart! When it comes to daydreaming, spacing out, and spacing out in class, "deities" are a joke. He was able to drop out entirely through his own hard work and dedication (toilet fight)!
As for other beliefs, they mainly revolve around 'who has more holidays, can get free meals and drinks, and has better neighborhood welfare.'

Now, Yuan Zhu and his younger brother have established stable faiths in three different Kitchen Gods: the Great Fasting King, the Artificial Meat God, and the Pre-made Immortal.

The followers of "Da Zhai Wang" (Great Fasting King) have a gathering place three blocks away from his home. They frequently hold free vegetarian meals there, and he and his younger brother often go to enjoy breakfast and participate in some prayer activities. Although the food isn't great, it's nutritious and free.

"Artificial meat" is a product of some 'hybrid soybean company,' a self-proclaimed 'new business god.' In the past two years, they've frequently held tasting events for believers in Running City, and the taste is quite good. He was introduced to it by a colleague and dragged into this trap.

From a global perspective, isn't it more like some kind of "genetically modified soybean god" is using ordinary people in small towns to conduct human experiments and collect data? Tastes good? I'm just laughing!
The last one, the "Pre-made Food Immortal," is self-explanatory. His predecessor never saw anything wrong with it; on the contrary, he found 'pre-made food' quite convenient.

But judging from Yuan Zhu's current knowledge and experience, he really was a naive and happy fool! He really didn't want to publish this "list of beliefs" that exposed his own lack of cultural knowledge.

However, when he turned his head, he saw Nie Yin's left eye staring straight at him, as well as the expectant eyes of the little girl and her brother.

Yuan Tang, without any instruction, blinked her eyes and suddenly asked in an extremely cloying, childlike voice, "Gie~Gei~, can you tell me what your faith is?"

After a brief hesitation, Zhu Zi gritted his teeth and decided to reveal it. His identity as a 'nouveau riche of the Holy Light System' was impossible to hide anyway. Even if Nie Yin saw through his predecessor's shortsightedness and incompetence, how could he know that this wasn't just a disguise for him, the [Shadow Overlord]? As long as he wasn't embarrassed, it was others who were embarrassed.

Soon, in addition to the three [Kitchen Gods], he released a group of five 'same type faiths': [Mist High Beam Dog, Rain City Waterproof Dog, Lord of the Lamp, Soul of Ten Thousand Machines, and Steam Monarch], and finally [Cunning Tongue] and [Pink Orange Canned Goods].

Upon hearing these names of deities, not only were the two siblings bewildered, their limited life experience preventing them from even grasping the abstract meaning of these obscure terms; even the well-informed Nie Yin fell silent.

I feel that these beliefs have nothing to do with the employer's "shadow law", the "frog factory" business, or the "holy light" they show.

Yuan Zhu remained outwardly unmoved, but inwardly ashamed. Despite this, he brazenly spoke calmly: "My senior should have told you that not long ago, I was just an ordinary person working at a lighting factory. Those two dogs were the factory's brand name: one for a high-beam headlight with strong penetration, and the other for an alchemical lamp used in the rain. The Lord of Lamps is a globally recognized 'divine deity for lighting,' while the Machine Soul and the Steam Lord are also commonly worshipped deities in the factory. My factory said that anyone who nominally worshipped these two dogs would receive an extra 200 yuan in year-end bonus. Everyone did it, so it was hard for me to be an exception."

"High-beam dog" and "waterproof dog" are both utter garbage, yet their predecessors still sacrificed themselves for the sake of "200 meters". Converted to Chinese RMB, that's almost 4000, which is quite a lot! But it's a bit of a loss to exchange five faith slots for it?
However, as long as all employees adopt this set of 'five beliefs,' the positive impact on the factory is quite noticeable. The 'machine spirits' on the production line are greatly pleased! The malfunctions of the elemental steam engines have also significantly decreased. The product failure rate has also slightly declined.

As for the "cunning tongue," it still has some connection to work.

This faith points to a deity that can provide believers with certain blessings and insights in the areas of persuasion and sales. It makes your voice sound more persuasive, and brings a constant stream of inspiration during sales conversations. It can even persuade hesitant customers to sign a contract without fully understanding why.

Yes, its predecessor was once responsible for securing orders for the "factory" and negotiating prices with raw material suppliers. The reason for such a strenuous and intense effort was, of course, to secretly understand the entire industry chain so that one day it could replace the factory and become the new "small factory owner".

Furthermore, the "Deceitful Tongue" can also deceive oneself. For example, one can empower a tasteless food, constructing false "taste signals" in the brain to make the food taste delicious (self-numbing).

Therefore, besides the company's sales staff who like to worship this deity, some people who diet, control their food intake, and only eat boiled chicken breast also like this "God of Tongues".

After briefly introducing his "list of beliefs," Yuan Zhu only selected the last item, "pink orange preserves," and recommended it to the somewhat disappointed siblings.

"Compared to those junk products, [Pink Oranges] are quite reliable. Just pray (check in) for seven consecutive days, and you can get a dozen half-price cans of [oranges] nearing their expiration date from the shop that worships this deity, to replenish the nutrients (vitamins) your body needs."

These inexpensive canned oranges, saturated with sweet juice, are nutritious and have a raw yet endearing taste, providing a large amount of sugar and joy to the masses. This is also a rare example of a quality belief that Yuan Zhu has maintained for over 10 years.

Recalling his faith experiences over the past 10 years, images of distant times suddenly flashed through Zhu Zi's mind.

Then, without thinking, he blurted out what he remembered most: "The half-price seven-day sign-in bonus for believing in this deity is just the most basic benefit. If you actively spend a lot of money to purchase it, you can activate more 'Advanced VIP Believer Mode' and achieve hidden, mysterious achievements!"

My childhood memories are becoming clearer, and suddenly a strange tale about a "Pink Orange Theme Park" comes to mind?

There was an instance where a child accidentally achieved a hidden achievement and then disappeared for a week, supposedly after being invited to enter it.

After returning from the trip, the other person enthusiastically bragged about it to their friends, including "Little Candle," and tried to brainwash them. But not long after, this memory suddenly became blurry and then disappeared.

It was from that time that Yuan Zhu developed a strong interest and obsession with [pink mandarin orange preserves], which she persisted in for as long as 10 years. But she didn't know why she was so persistent.

At that moment, he suddenly recalled this erased memory, and then realized: Damn it, I've been set up!!!
Yuan Zhu: "...These gods have quite a few tricks up their sleeves, they even scam kids. I've been fooled for 10 years?!"

Snake: "Not necessarily. Perhaps the [Canned Goods God] is protecting that overly excited child, and incidentally, it's also stimulating your desire for the [Amusement Park]. Try to buy canned oranges and trigger the hidden achievement."

Yuan Zhu suddenly looked at the siblings and said, "Well, it's okay if you don't believe in [Canned Oranges]! I have no experience with what you should believe in in the future, so I won't make any recommendations. Let Nie Yin arrange it for you. But remember one thing: you must add [Anti-Law. Shadow Overlord] and [Yinshan Lord] to it."

Although the siblings didn't understand, they nodded earnestly and made a promise.

Nie Yin suddenly asked, "What is the [Lord of Yinshan]?"

[Anti-law] She's already enjoyed it, and since it's her boss, adding him to the [Faith List] is no problem. But what is this unfamiliar [Yinshan Jun]? She won't easily establish a faith connection without figuring it out.

Yuan Zhu: "[Yinshan Jun] is the source of [Shadow Power]."

Isn't the root of the [Power of Shadow] the [Anti-Law]? Is there an even more complex relationship behind this? Is the [Anti-Law Master] just a 'black glove agent (god)'?
Nie Yin hesitated and said, "There are only two spots left."

Candle said magnanimously, "Clear out all your useless [faiths], such as [Tuesday Discount Alliance] and that [Instant Noodle God], give them all up. I'll make up for your losses in cash."

“What I value is not the money, but the benefits and special value brought by these ‘deities’. I can remove the [Sleep Aid God] and the [Cleansing and Sterilizing Spell].

She considered it. Regardless of whether she would work for the employer in the future, with the other party voluntarily assuming her college debts, even if this "Frog Factory" had no future, she could endure the hardship for a few years, save up enough capital, pay off the debts, and accumulate sufficient resources before leaving "Anti-Law" to go solo...

At that point, as long as she abides by the confidentiality agreement and repays the "Anti-Law Loan" regularly, she can guarantee her absolute freedom!
Therefore, she will gradually leave the Rain Academy in the future, and thus will not be affected by the Nightmare School; nor will she be able to use the academy's internal Cleansing Ritual.

These two faiths can be deleted and replaced with [Anti-Law. Shadow Overlord] and [Yinshan Lord]. It's like having some random things like [Mist High Beam Dog] and [Rain City Waterproof Dog] in the employer's faith list, just for a year-end bonus of 200 yuan.

...

After exchanging ideas based on faith, Yuan Zhu felt that his relationship with Nie Yin had taken another step forward.

As a sunny and cheerful young man, his attitude towards the frog-killing girl has never changed. Ever since signing the "Anti-Law" agreement, he has treated her as his personal property, and his attitude has always been very good.

On the contrary, the frog-killing girl acted like a cat with a mental illness, her attitude towards him unpredictable and capricious. But after this round of private conversation, their attitudes towards each other relaxed considerably. This might also be due to the presence of a harmless older sister and an honest and well-behaved younger brother in the "haunted house."

After the exchange ended, Yuan Zhu arranged for Nie Yin to start the "Nighttime Overtime Teaching Mode" and had the siblings accompany him to watch and enjoy Nie Yin's "Frog-type Transformation" performance.

The theme this time is: to add a brand new Frog-type Pollution Modification Surgery to the [Eggplant Spirit] that already has 'Eggplant Parasitic Pollution' in its body, to give it 'extraordinary muscles', and retain the existing [Shadow Pollution Attribute], to create the [Shadow-type Muscular Eggplant Spirit Warrior].

Once successful, they can be transported to the Misty Mountains and Yinshan Blessed Land to serve as 'oxen and horses to carry out the construction of the Mountain Lord Temple' for themselves.

Of course, before he visited the Frog Factory construction site today, Nie Yin had said that the Shadow Eggplant Pollution and the Frog Pollution had clashed and could not be superimposed, so he could not obtain the 'Supreme Ashbreaker' who does not need to eat, but only needs to bask in the sun to photosynthesize.

Is it possible to achieve 'saving food rations and creating an endless perpetual motion machine of oxen and horses'? This is extremely important to Yuan Zhu!
【Eggplant Extract】: No need to eat, saving money, but the body is weak and the body is too weak to even kill a chicken. It can only do ordinary assembly line work and cannot be used for cleaning.

【Earth Warrior】Eats a lot, eats and excretes a lot, feed costs are high. The ultimate warrior has a strong body, performs insane work output, a top-tier mini-powerhouse! Before being scrapped, it can still participate in deathmatch arenas to recoup some losses (money).

【Egg Energy】, saves money and works hard, a perpetual motion machine! Go to the ring before you die, achieve ultimate sublimation, simply perfect!
