From the God of Lies to the Lord of All Worlds

Chapter 447 Still Too Rich

Bai Yang was certainly paying attention to this trial; in fact, he was concerned about many other things as well.

The few outstanding trainees all shone in his eyes, and their origins and experiences also left a certain impression on him.

Thus, Bai Yang began to slowly construct the next trial—yes, he constructed the trial with these people in mind, the purpose of which was to draw targets and shoot arrows, in fact, to select people first and then conduct the trial.

These people don't even know they are the "chosen ones," but it is true. Only those truly chosen by Bai Yang have the right to pass this trial, eventually reach Buckingham Palace, and be qualified to draw their swords!

Of course, this does not include the black man, Broly, who was the first to pass the Trial of Courage. He was the first one to be eliminated by Bai Yang. Even though he passed two trials in a row and was still on the list of the remaining 1000 people, he had long since lost the right to draw his sword.

Just as he himself said, the Celtic gods and Merlin could not allow a dark-skinned man to appear on the final stage of the election of kings, not even in the thought!
Although these people do not subscribe to the so-called monotheistic view of bloodline, the gods are the ancestors of the Celts, and they would never allow such a thing to happen.

But Bai Yang naturally had his own thoughts about this Irish group of America. They would not die; instead, they would gain their own share of power in such trials.

Furthermore, due to their agreement with America's government, these individuals with extraordinary powers will return to that country and become part of America's supernatural entity.

"Tsk! This country is really a hodgepodge, with the Papacy, demons, evil gods, the Aesir, the Celtic pantheon, and the American pantheon... This country is really becoming a supernatural hodgepodge!" Bai Yang couldn't help but complain.

He could also see that some companies in this country that were on good terms with India and Japan were also introducing supernatural powers, Buddhism, Onmyoji, and ghosts and gods, which were also spreading in that land that was favorable for going abroad.

It's no wonder this is a land of immigrants; even the extraordinary are a mixed bag. This makes Bai Yang even happier. In the future, whatever happens, America will inevitably be the first testing area. It can be said that an ecological niche has been reserved in advance.

Bai Yang pondered for a moment, then with a flourish of his pen, crossed out nearly half of the remaining thousand people.

They were all test takers with sufficient qualities but insufficient bloodline. Ability is not always the only criterion for judgment. At least at the extraordinary level, bloodline is a very important assessment point.

As for the people who were actually chosen, there were only five, such as the explorer named Edwin Grylls, who was one of the people chosen by Bai Yang.

Because he is famous enough, he can generate more public opinion around the world—after all, even gods need traffic, so choosing a strategy with a large audience is certainly appropriate.

Moreover, Edwin is a very trustworthy person. As a former soldier, he has been adopting military orphans and homeless children since he started making the show, and he tries his best to teach them survival skills and job skills so that they can get a job when they grow up.

This may also be why Edwin has a good reputation and standing in the world. Regardless of his motives, a gentleman judges by his actions, not his intentions. He did it, and he has continued to do it, which is "kind".

In any religion, "kindness" is a big plus, because everyone hopes that their collaborators and successors are good people, and even deities are no exception.

The gods don't even worry about their successors suffering because of their kindness—after all, divine power can solve everything, so morality is their primary consideration in choosing a successor!
If a person can even deceive themselves, how can you expect them not to deceive you?
Therefore, Bai Yang quickly completed the design of this third trial, and the three alien deities also became the guides of this special trial in his design.

"Let a natural storm come and determine the true candidate!"

He spoke softly, and the divine power in his hand poured down!

The three alien gods were the biggest observers of this divine power. When they saw the mage Merlin raise his hand and unleash divine power, they were completely taken aback!
Isn't that going too far? Huh? Why can a so-called mortal mage like you unleash divine power?!
Merlin, you still say you have no connection with God!
If someone familiar with Welsh mythology were here, they would tell them that Merlin was indeed a mortal, but the druids' status in mythology is far higher than that of some ordinary gods, so it is perfectly reasonable for him to use divine power.

The three minor alien deities stared in disbelief as they unleashed a massive amount of divine power, allowing the thousand trial participants to witness the oak seed before them growing at an astonishing rate! Wisps of white mist slowly swirled among the trees, plunging everyone into a unique dreamlike state.

At this moment, Merlin turned around and said to the three gods from another realm, "The trials of the gods have begun. You three can give me your most proficient element, and I will merge into this illusion to become the initial guide for this world!"

This was something that had just been discussed, so the three gods, without any hesitation, handed over a portion of their divine elements to Merlin.

Logically speaking, it would be impossible for them to hand over this divine element, which almost represents their own attributes; that would mean complete surrender.

Unfortunately, the other party offered too much. That was the future position of a world god. Isn't it normal to make such a request?

Besides, the gods of this world are rich and powerful, encompassing the whole world. They do not look down on us, the gods of small places. How can we suspect that they have ulterior motives?

It must be said that Bai Yang's previous spiritual trends and his exaggeration of this world played a significant role in making them truly believe that this universe is an absolute beacon of the divine realm.

As we all know, lighthouses are undoubtedly illuminating, great, and correct. If this is incorrect, please refer to point number one.

Thus, with the three gods' weaknesses in hand, elements from the continent of Dylan appeared in Bai Yang's possession for the first time.

"These elements do seem quite interesting..." Bai Yang felt a sense of wonder as he examined the elements in his hand. This was something he couldn't experience from the God of Lies—an elemental characteristic that was closer to "essence."

Furthermore, because they belonged to three different powerful gods, the specific order, justice, and freedom attributes of those pantheons deeply moved Bai Yang.

In particular, Bai Yang was somewhat surprised by their use of faith, their subdivision of small-scale vows, and even their use of a portion of vows as a material basis for their divine elemental characteristics!
"As expected of an old-fashioned deity, how come I didn't think of this!" Bai Yang said with some surprise. As expected of the resource-scarce Dylan Continent, their division of will power can even make one part of will power have the effect of five or even ten parts of Bai Yang's.

Actually, it's quite simple: it's about changing the effect of the power of will from affecting the whole body to affecting only the five senses of the recipient.

This achieves the same effect, but saves money by reducing consumption.

"We're still a bit too rich. Even in our poorest times, we never imagined we could spend our wish power like this..." Bai Yang couldn't help but complain, "What kind of miserable lives do these people usually lead..."

The scarcity of resources on the continent of Dylan made him sigh again, no wonder his previous material donations had received such a good response.

However, these are just extras. Bai Yang had already prepared the design for this trial long ago. Giving the promises to the three gods is more like strengthening the strategy for conquering the Dylan Continent.

Having gained so much recognition, they will likely become even more proactive advocates for the new world.

The trial before us is a more profound form of propaganda for this world. I'm sure Fisher and his two companions wouldn't mind adding the title "Every ordinary person can become a god" to this new world!

Bai Yang has already been planning everything on the Dylan Continent; this is just a routine move!

As for the people in this illusory trial, they are experiencing an even more bizarre and mysterious adventure!
