Evil God? My servants are players!

Hyacinth has long been granted the right to freely enter and leave the base camp, but it rarely goes out unless there is something to do.

After all, apart from "her," there was nothing else the hyacinth longed for outside.

Despite being exposed to the corruption of the evil god, the hyacinth seemed oblivious, as if it had long been accustomed to it.

She awkwardly manipulated the twin flowers, and a voice also rang out.

"I'm no longer where I was. I've been teleported to a strange place. I'm safe, don't worry."

After completing the task assigned by Luna, Hyacinth returned to the base camp.

"Here you go, I've got it all set up for you. Can you now worship the Lord?"

Hyacinth returned the twin flowers to Luna.

"Of course," Luna replied casually.

"That's wonderful! It's a pity it's time; I still need to go outside to clean the altar and guide my retinue. I'll teach you the doctrine when I get back!"

Hyacinth waved happily to Luna and left the room.

She didn't notice that Luna's whole body had already stiffened.

The moment she gave an affirmative answer, Luna felt as if she were rooted to the spot by the gaze of a thousand stars.

They exist, they bear witness, they affirm.

Their gazes etched a sacred covenant upon Luna's soul.

Luna must obey the covenant, or she will face eternal damnation.

Finally, countless stars exploded, transforming into a string of incomprehensible text.

لَاتَكْذِبْبَيْنَيَدَيِاللهِ

Luna then finally regained control of her body.

Luna's clothes were soaked with sweat, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

At the same time, a strange sour smell wafted out.

Fear took hold of her.

"What was that?! What just happened?!"

Luna trembled even more as she recalled what she had just felt.

"No! I have to go find Hyacinth!!! She must know something!"

Luna forced herself to stand up, controlling her trembling legs.

But her weak legs could not support her weight, and she fell to the ground again.

Helpless, Luna could only crawl out using her hands and legs.

Since all the players have gone to do the new quests issued by Shen Yuan, only Hyacinth is cleaning the altar in the central square.

Hyacinth quickly noticed Luna crawling towards them on all fours.

She quickly cast a spell to restore Luna's condition.

"What happened to you? Why did you suddenly get yourself into this state?"

Hyacinth helped Luna up and asked, puzzled.

"Just now! Just now! Stars! End! Doctrine! Covenant!"

At this moment, Luna's speech was still somewhat unclear.

"Don't rush, speak slowly."

Luna took a few deep breaths before telling Hyacinth what had just happened.

Hyacinth looked completely bewildered upon hearing this.

"I...I don't know what happened either..."

Hyacinth said somewhat embarrassedly that she felt a little disappointed that she couldn't be of any help.

"Oh right, you just mentioned doctrine, didn't you? I do know about that! Let me read it to you:"

The first rule is that we should share our food with our friends so that no one goes hungry.

Just as the first doctrine was uttered from Hyacinth's mouth, Luna returned to her frozen state.

The sound of the hyacinth seemed to transform into a roar from the heavens, swirling around Luna's ears.

"No one should weep because of hunger in the Lord's land. If you have an extra piece of bread, share it with the person next to you who is hungry."

This sentence is both easy and difficult to understand.

Luna felt her rationality being pulled and squeezed.

Madness began to spread through Luna's mind.

But with a chilling wave, the madness and the strange phenomena receded like a tide.

Luna also rediscovered herself.

Meanwhile, Hyacinth was still enthusiastically reciting "Our Principles".

It was our evil god who made his move.

'It seems I can't entrust the missionary work to Hyacinth. Although it was unintentional, the little guy is a bit domineering,' Shen Yuan thought to himself.

Hyacinth is already highly bound to the Covenant of the Creeping Cult, which makes her, to some extent, a spokesperson for the Shen Yuan Cult.

This also led to the strange thing that just happened.

Although Shen Yuan also wanted to convert Luna into a believer.

Because only believers can generate stable emotional energy through their faith.

Non-believers can only generate energy that Shen Yuan can absorb when their emotions are directly or indirectly affected by Shen Yuan.

As it turned out, the missionary work was not very successful and almost drove the newcomers crazy.

So Shen Yuan made his move. After all, what he needed was a generator that could continuously produce emotional energy, not a piece of junk that had gone mad or become stupid.

"Why is it always about petty people lately?" Shen Yuan muttered.

Then Shen Yuan glanced at human nature and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

Human nature: 67%

In order to completely drive away the adventurers, Shen Yuan had to spend some human resources ahead of time to improve his knowledge of rituals.

It seems that the low humanity score has already had a negative impact on Shen Yuan.

Then, Shen Yuan sensed that new adventurers had entered the contaminated area.

Players have also completed the mission of "The End of the Fright Festival".

Now is the time to make the adventurers give up completely.

"What kind of idiotic planning is this? Why did they make dancing a task? Isn't that just plain embarrassing?" Quan Xianbangua cursed.

"Indeed! Isn't this the job of the atmosphere group NPCs? Why would they make players jump around?" the phase man responded.

The players are performing a strange dance around a giant black ball of flesh.

While their extensive playtime in immersive games has honed their combat skills, their "dance skills" are, to put it mildly, questionable.

Their dance moves were even stranger than actual cult rituals.

"I've never been this speechless in a game before. If it weren't for the rare pet, I wouldn't have done something so stupid," one player said.

"No way, this is too stupid, I'm not jumping anymore! It's just a broken pet, it won't even increase my combat power." Another player simply chose to give up.

But just then, a group of adventurers suddenly burst into the scene.

To the adventurers, a group of monsters were performing some kind of ritual around an extremely strange ball of flesh.

Powerful monsters, bizarre magic circles, an even stronger sense of nausea and dizziness, and a fleshy ball located in the very center of the scene.

All signs indicate that the middle part is very important.

"The thieves have made their move!" someone in the adventure team suddenly shouted.

Then a dark shadow flashed by, and the ball of flesh disappeared.

Then the adventurers vanished in the blink of an eye.

The process was so fast that before the players could recover from the shock of the adventurer's sudden appearance, the ball of flesh had vanished.

Looking at the empty, simple altar, Quanxian Bangua murmured:

"What's this? The mission failed? Will I still get the pet reward?"
