Magic, Evil Gods, and the Fourth Calamity

For players, if they can't play this game, they can just switch to another one.

But for Ai Yi, the game "Otherworld Online" is closely related to his future development.

Ai doesn't know what else is there that makes her so cute and easy to use.

The test conducted by three players of "Blooming Prosperity" confirmed the feasibility of using players to earn Chaos Points.

All Ai needs to do is continuously expand the player base, allowing players to gradually infiltrate the world like a malignant tumor, thereby gaining a continuous stream of chaos points.

However, given the current situation in the world of Errol, Ai overturned the game mode that was previously set up in the divine kingdom.

He originally wanted to create a search, attack, and retreat type of game, sending players around Errol to engage in various forms of PVP and PVE.

This is also why he focused on testing the so-called "combat system".

But now that he has the identity of "Child of Light," he might be able to switch to a more stable game mode, such as MMORPG.

This type of game can incorporate more content and attract more players.

Aiyi plans to launch the second closed beta test of the game in a while, bringing in one hundred players.

For the second closed beta test of the game, Ai Yi had already prepared the story background and even put in a lot of effort to create a promotional CG.

Before that, Ai Yi needs to set up the players' spawn points and their first true main city.

……

Spring of the year 1034 in the new calendar.

For the Kingdom of Ruhr, the last sovereign state in human history, a small country with a population of only 300,000, today is a day that will go down in history.

Not for any other reason than that the pilgrimage team, personally led by the eldest princess six months ago, returned to the capital today, bringing back exciting news.

The gods that humans worshipped a thousand years ago, the supreme deity that belonged exclusively to humankind, have returned!

The great and eternal God of Light has come to His faithful kingdom today.

Human history has turned a new page today.

"Praise be to your return, great Lord! You are the creator of order, the master of light, the only Lord of mankind, the great and eternal God of light."

In the open space in front of the Rulvan Palace, tens of thousands of people knelt down and devoutly praised the deity that hung high in the sky, as dazzling as the sun.

The gods high above radiated an even more dazzling and gentle light.

Pure white light fell like rain, bestowing the blessings of the God of Light upon the kneeling believers before the palace.

Some people's skin became smoother, some people's knees that had been aching for years suddenly recovered, and some people's incurable diseases were eradicated.

This is one of the powers contained within the authority of light: purification.

It can purify all impurities!

People noticed the changes in their bodies and praised the God of Light even more fervently.

"Praise be to you, great God of Light!"

"Welcome back, eternally great Lord!"

Those devout praises transformed into streams of faith that flowed into Ai's body.

[Faith Value +1]

[Faith Value +1]

【…】

Ai stared blankly at the rapidly rising faith, which seemed to be going crazy, until it stopped at the number 57649, and then she vaguely came to her senses.

These were beliefs that humanity had suppressed for thousands of years, and now, upon seeing the existence of the God of Light, they all erupted forth.

These 50,000+ Faith Points are currently the maximum that Ai Yi can obtain.

In the world of Errol, the power of a god's faith depends entirely on the number of followers He has. The amount of faith points He gains depends on the devotion of those followers.

Currently, the followers under the guise of the God of Light provide Ai with over 50,000 faith points annually.

This time, the faith points were simply handed over by the believers as a "routine" duty.

If Ai wants to gain more faith points, she either needs to increase the number of followers of the God of Light or increase her own standing among the followers.

This is not an easy task, and Ai doesn't actually intend to get bogged down in it.

After all, He is not a true god of light, and He is not prepared to become stronger through faith.

What he needs now is to play this role well so that he can better collect energy from players.

However, what troubled Ai was that he was now completely exposed to the gaze of the true god, with absolutely no privacy of his own.

He could even sense that every now and then, a high and mighty deity would cast his gaze toward the capital of Ruhr.

Just then, Ai felt a connection in the dark and subconsciously looked in the direction of the connection.

A phantom golden kingdom appeared before Him.

It was a golden kingdom covered by white clouds, and everything in the kingdom seemed to be made of gold.

That is the divine kingdom of the Holy Throne of Light, which has been revived through the prayers of the people and is also celebrating the return of the God of Light.

Unlike the Gluttonous Dragon's near-collapsed divine kingdom, the Holy Throne of Light's divine kingdom is remarkably well-preserved.

"It's like a pillow delivered just when you're sleepy!"

The divine kingdom is the manifestation of the divine realm; it is a private space belonging to the gods, which can protect them from the prying eyes of other gods.

Overjoyed, Ai stepped into the Golden Kingdom and began to take over the legacy of the Throne of Light.

The golden kingdom, awakened from its slumber, summoned countless angels who hovered and danced around the goddess of light, Ai, playing music to welcome the god's return.

On this day, the great and eternal God of Light returned from the dead and reclaimed the golden kingdom that rightfully belonged to him.

In the Ruhr Royal Palace, the fourteen-year-old King Ter Silado of Ruhr, with brown hair and brown eyes, looked up at this scene, his young face full of excitement.

He turned to look at Eileen beside him and asked eagerly, "Royal sister, is it the Kingdom of Gods, the Kingdom of Light, the Golden Kingdom?"

After bestowing blessings, the great God of Light returned to His own kingdom!

My dear sister, do you think that Pastor Kane and Bishop Elen might be in that divine kingdom right now?

Doesn't the sacred text record that after death, the Lord's devout believers go to the Lord's Kingdom and become immortal supplicants?

Bishop Ellen was the former leader of the Illuminati who prophesied the opportunity for the reappearance of the God of Light through his life, while Pastor Kane was Irene's teacher, the elderly pastor who died before dawn during the pilgrimage.

"Maybe... I don't know..."

Eileen didn't know how to answer the question, because she knew the answer was no. But she couldn't very well tell her brother that the guy wasn't actually the God of Light, but rather the [Gluttonous Dragon] in disguise!

Eileen didn't know what the evil god wanted to do, but she knew she absolutely couldn't reveal his identity.

Because doing so would not only be pointless, but could even lead to the destruction of the entire Ruhr Kingdom by the angry evil god.

Now, all Eileen can do is pray that the evil god will be kinder...

Just as Eileen was lost in thought, she heard Tel exclaim in surprise beside her.

"Royal sister, royal sister! Your body is glowing!"

Tel's exclamation brought Eileen back to reality. She then realized that a gentle energy was appearing in her body, continuously elevating her life level.

Silver (intermediate), Silver (upper), Gold (lower), Gold (intermediate), Gold (upper).

In the blink of an eye, Eileen, who was originally only at the mid-silver level, jumped dozens of levels to the upper-gold level, and was only one step away from stepping into the epic level!

"From this day forward, Irene Celiado will be my representative in this world, and the Holy Maiden of Light of the Church of Light under my command!"

"And in the future, the Holy Maiden will lead you, together with the heroes I summoned from another world, to achieve the great revival of the human race, and let the eternal and great light dispel any darkness in the world of Errol!"

A gentle and dignified voice resounded throughout the Ruhr Royal Palace, echoing in everyone's ears.

That was a divine decree, a decree personally issued by the gods.

Everyone who heard this sentence knelt down in excitement and kowtowed, praising the great and eternal God of Light.

Except for Eileen.

She stood frozen in place, feeling the unreal power within her body; her already chaotic mind was now a complete mess.

But she understood one thing: she could never escape the clutches of the evil god!

My only choice now is to follow the orders of that evil being and pray once again that it will be kinder to humanity...

But she still couldn't understand why the other party wanted her to be a saintess.

No one knows what that evil being is planning.

They had no idea what this so-called hero from another world was.
