Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 797 The Unusually Lively Cult Channel

Ten minutes later, the factory exclusively for beginners.

"Well, the requirements are pretty much what we just discussed. So, Xiaobai, can you handle it?"

"Yeah!"

Inside the sturdy experimental base built with excellent soundproofing materials, Xin Lailai and Ling Yuzi looked at the little white crab in front of them and asked it a question. The crab confidently raised its head, picked up its goggles, and waved its small pincers, indicating that it would take care of the problem.

"Great job! As expected of Xiaobai. Now, Mom and Dad are waiting for your good news!"

"Yeah!"

With a confident yelp, the little white crab casually gestured a time to Xin Lailai and the other person, indicating that it could handle this purely procedural thing in no time. Then, it hopped on its eight little legs and arrived in front of the huge mainframe that was more than ten meters tall, and began to operate the control panel with great concentration.

Very good, this way their religious management issues can be resolved.

Xin Lailai watched the busy little white crab, nodded slightly, and a look of satisfaction appeared in her eyes. Just then, a message notification sound came:
[Ding! You have received a message from the Lai Lai Cult Team Channel]

Hmm? A message tagged in the cult's channel?

Upon hearing the notification tone, Xin Lailai subconsciously looked towards the edge of her field of vision. When she saw that the source of the message was the team channel, she was stunned for a moment before realizing what was happening.

Almost forgot, they've now become new deities under the Lai Lai Cult, and this was a spur-of-the-moment decision. Considering the Lai Lai Cult's current special need for deities, the cult's communication channels are probably in an uproar.

I wonder how Brother Ritian will react? And the other members of their cult, although we don't usually see them around much, they should all be brought out this time, right?

Xin Lailai pondered, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes. With a playful look, she opened the cult's channel and sent a message:
……

"God" Black Sword: "Good morning, everyone."

"Heretical" Dark Kindness: "(*)!!!"

"Apostle" 04296: "Goodness, you finally managed to scare me out, bro?"

"Apostle" 04296: "Tell me quickly, bro, what's going on over there? How come you've already embarked on the path of the gods in the short time I was dozing off?"

"God" Black Sword: "Ahem... Well, there's actually a reason for this. Brother Ritian, didn't I tell you last time? I recently participated in an expedition to conquer a world, and for various reasons, the native inhabitants of that world seem to be worshipping me as a god. As a result, our faith power output has exceeded expectations, and that's how it ended up like this."

"Apostle" 04296: "6, goodness, so you're a natural-born missionary, bro. You've already won over the faith of an entire world on your first visit to a native world with living people?"

"God" Black Sword: "Ahem, Brother Ritian, you flatter me. This situation is actually mostly a coincidence."

"Father" Salty Fish: "Holy crap, it's only been less than a year, and that newbie who just joined the church has already risen to the position of a god?"

"Holy Scripture Holder" Baihua: "Salted Fish, your information is too outdated. This guy is a big celebrity in the low-level Paradise now, and even many high-level and top-level contractors know his name."

"Father" Salty Fish: "Really? I just got online, Baihua, don't try to fool me."

"Holy Scripture Holder" Baihua: "Why would I lie to you? Just open any large forum and type in this guy's name, and see how much stuff you can find?"

"Apostle" 04296: "It was only after Xianyu said that I remembered, brother, it's been almost a year since you entered the Paradise. Time really flies."

"God" Black Sword: "To be honest, I actually have a feeling that I've been here for several years."

"Father" Salty Fish: "Holy crap, dude, are you that amazing? I had no idea until I searched, and what I found is astounding!"

"Apostle" 04296: "Haha, how about that? I told you he would definitely give you a big surprise, right?"

"Member" Sanshui Renyun said: "Indeed, compared with Brother Heijian, my achievements are rather insignificant."

"Father" Salty Fish: "Life is really unpredictable. I remember you said back then, 04296, that he was just someone you brought in to make up the numbers?"

"Apostle" 04296: "Ahem, to be honest, I never imagined that the newbie I casually recruited would grow to this level. By the way, bro, are you going on an expedition to the next world?"

"God" Black Sword: "Hmm."

"Apostle" 04296: "Tsk tsk, then you'd better be careful, brother. An expedition is not like other small-scale operations. Sanshui should know this all too well."

Member Sanshuirenyun said: "Indeed, if this is Brother Heijian's first expedition, I personally suggest that you make sure you are fully prepared before you set off. The pace of an expedition is very different from the regular world progress. It took me quite a while to get used to it."

"God" Black Sword: "Yes, thank you for the reminder, Brother Ritian and Brother Sanshui. I will pay more attention here."

"Member" Death Slayer: "..."

"Member" Dead Man: "@BlackSword, what happened?"

"God" Black Sword: "@Death Bearer, uh, it's a bit hard to explain in a short time, but it's just like what you saw. We just forged one of our soul clones into a divine soul in order to deal with the power of faith."

"God" Black Sword: "@Death Bearer, speaking of which, when are you coming back from over there?"

The member who handled the deceased said, "Two hours later."

"God" Black Sword: "OK, then there's no problem. Let's talk again at our usual place later."

……

Is the guy who's going to the Dead going back to Paradise in two hours?
In front of the cult's channel, Xin Lailai looked at the suddenly appearing Death Keeper, her eyes flickered slightly, as if she had thought of something, and a playful smile appeared on her face.

Speaking of which, the Death Bearer is now also a member of the Lai Lai Cult, which means that he is also facing the problem of his faith power accumulating too much and getting out of control.

Furthermore, considering that the Deathbringer is almost certain to agree to Shan Xi's conditions and is clearly unsuitable for condensing a divine soul, it means that if the other party wants to deal with the issue of faith power, they can only ask them for help...

……

"Member" Deathbearer: "@BlackSword, if it's just about discussing the power of faith, then there's no need for further discussion. I have a way to handle this."

"God" Black Sword: "???"

"Member" Death Bearer: "The Netherworld Heritage contains methods to deal with the power of faith."

"God" Black Sword: "..."

……

Damn, I got predicted!

On the cult's channel, Xin Lailai stared at the Death Bearer's reply, her face contorted with the discomfort of someone constipated. She mentally cursed the other person's profession, her teeth itching with rage. "Damn this overpowered legacy! The skill mechanics are absurd enough, but they even have a way to deal with faith power?"
……

"Apostle" 04296: "Hahaha, it seems your plan to use this opportunity to do something bad has failed, little brother?"

"Apostle" 04296: "Speaking of which, how are things going on your end, brother? I've experienced quite a few things, but I've never really tried what it's like to be a god."

"God" Black Sword: "Uh, nothing much different from usual, except that there's an extra power of faith that needs to be dealt with."

"God" Black Sword: "By the way, Brother Ritian, can I ask you something? Do you know anyone who has access to a shop? I want to buy some team skill upgrade cards from him, the kind that can upgrade S-rank team skills."

"Apostle" 04296: "Permission Shop? This is a bit difficult. Among the people I know, there aren't many who would prioritize unlocking this thing. Let me ask around for you."

"Member" Sanshuirenyun said: "Hmm... a privilege store? I happen to know a friend who has unlocked this store."

"God" Black Sword: "@Sanshuirenyun, really? Can I ask about that person's situation, Brother Sanshui?"

"Member" Sanshuirenyun said: "Hmm, Ahheng from the Righteous God Cult, I wonder if Brother Black Sword has heard of him? He is my current captain. He is quite interested in you, Brother Black Sword, and asked me a lot of questions about you. He also just unlocked the access to the Exploration Shop section."

Member Sanshuiren said, "If it's Brother Heijian's request, I don't think he'll refuse. I'll ask him for you later."

"God" Black Sword: "Alright, I'll leave it to Brother Sanshui."

……

Ah Heng from the Cult of Justice? Come to think of it, Bell mentioned him before...

In front of the communication channel, Xin Lailai's eyes lit up as she looked at the reply given by Sanshui Renyun.

'This way, upgrading the squad's skills can finally be put on the agenda.'

As an S-rank team, when they were drawing team skills, they drew an incredible team ability that could increase Abyss resistance. However, due to its extreme rarity, most team skill cards on the market could not be used on their team skills, leaving their team skills stuck at LV.1.

Of course, it would be fine if they simply couldn't find an opportunity to upgrade their team's skill level temporarily. The key point is that their team has an extremely rare ability that can increase abyss resistance, and they will be embarking on an expedition into the Abyss Corrosion Zone in the next world. Under these circumstances, if conditions permit, Xin Lailai would naturally want to upgrade the team skill that increases abyss resistance as much as possible before embarking on the expedition.

I just don't know if I can successfully purchase a sufficient number of team skill experience cards from Sanshui Renyun and Aheng, whom Bell mentioned.

Xin Lailai lowered her head in thought, stroking her chin as she searched her memory for any information related to the name 'Aheng'. Just then, a childish voice suddenly rang in her ears:

"Eeya! Eeya eeya!"

"Huh? Xiaobai, you said your AI is finished?!"

"Yeah!"

Inside the experimental base, Xin Lailai looked at the little white crab that had suddenly run over to inform them, and a look of surprise appeared in her eyes. The little white crab itself raised its head slightly, indicating that this was nothing at all.

[Notification: Senior Employee Xiaobai has detected sending you ??? Initial (Prototype) content. This content is a ψ language imprint program, which requires 100 imprint points to run. Do you want to accept and install it?]

Wow, it's done in less than ten minutes!
A cold notification sound rang out, and Xin Lailai stared at the pop-up message notification, a look of shock appearing in her eyes.

Although he hadn't had much contact with mechanical engineering staff, he still had some basic common sense knowledge.

You have to understand that what they just requested was a powerful AI capable of processing the faith power of over 1000 billion people simultaneously. It's the kind of AI that you would have to contact a specialized senior ψ language engineer and pay a hefty price to have custom-made for you if you wanted to buy it on the market. Yet, Little Crab managed to get all of that done in just ten minutes... It can only be said that their talent in technology has indeed reached an incredible level.

Of course, the equipment also plays a big role. According to Little Crab himself, the 'galaxy-level' host in front of them was a top-of-the-line device that the other party had gone to great lengths to obtain from the park. The cost of running it for just one second was as high as 100,000 park points. Its computing power was so immense that it was powerful enough to support the entire needs of a small world fortress. Combined with Little Crab's genius mind, this is how the scene of creating AI at the speed of light came about.

Well, to put it simply, they just ate up 60 million points from their own child's amusement park.

A series of cold notification sounds faded away, and finally, with a pleasant ding-dong, a cool yet melodious notification sound suddenly rang in Xin Lailai's mind. The next second—
