Rise from the coffin and rebuild the vampire empire

Chapter 132 Karen's Road
"Is the Blood God not here?"

Lizard asked, speaking in Lizard language.

"No."

Banju replied that she knew that the Blood God that Lizard was referring to was Lord Karen. She didn't know what was going on, but maybe these lizardmen worshipped Lord Karen as a god.

"If you can't stand it, you can leave."

Lida continued to speak, and he vaguely noticed that the human woman was trying her best to endure the smell on their bodies.

Banju widened her eyes and looked at the tall lizardman leader beside her with some surprise. She never expected that this lizardman leader named Xida would care about her feelings, but she could only thank Xida for his kindness.

"No, this is my mission."

Before Slako comes back, Banju will stay at her post. This little smell is nothing, she can bear it!
"Common Language. Too difficult."

Xida explained, then shut up and said nothing more. It was because the common language of the empire was too difficult to learn, and he couldn't learn it. Otherwise, there would be no need for Banju to be the translator here.

When Banju heard Lida's explanation, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that Lida's intelligence level was much higher than she had imagined.

This gave Banju an idea. Maybe she could try to teach the common language of the Lizard Empire?
But she quickly dismissed the idea, because it seemed that Lizard had tried to learn it, probably with Sla Science.

As a fellow lizardman, it should be easier for Slaco to teach him. If even Slaco can't teach him, it would probably be even harder for her.

After giving up this idea, Banju looked at the undead army beside her. She just realized that there were so many undead in Wangbo Port!

It wasn't just Banju who was surprised. Most people were shocked when they saw this scene, stunned by the number of undead.

There was no way, because they had never seen these undead gathered together, and the number of undead was indeed a bit exaggerated.

There are about 700 undead under Werner's control, and they have been staying on the Stone Rock Island. There are more than 800 skeleton soldiers directly controlled by Karen, and they have been at the Bloodstone Castle construction site.

These more than 1,500 undead souls are already half of the entire population of Wangbo Port, which is naturally enough to shock everyone.

The undead army is here, and Karen is naturally here too, but he did not show up. Instead, he observed in the dark. His undead have higher intelligence, and he only needs to give some simple instructions to make the undead cooperate with Hellion's actions.

This time, Karen was not going to intervene unless it was absolutely necessary. He would only contribute the skeleton soldiers under his command.

The operation of Wangbo Port has now gradually entered the right track, and Karen no longer needs to show up frequently.

Now, Karen is gradually withdrawing from the world and hiding behind the scenes. This is not to completely dilute his presence, but to emphasize another aspect of his presence, the mysterious presence.

Karen wants to start creating a sense of mystery, guiding people to worship and serve him. He wants to create faith and start the journey to godhood again.

Of course, with Wangbo Port's current small population, unless everyone was a fervent believer, there wouldn't be any effect at all, but some things needed to be planned and arranged in advance. Getting people to truly believe in him wasn't something that could be accomplished overnight; it was a gradual process.

With the development of Wangbo Port and the increase in population, the later we start, the more difficult it will be. It is just right to start now.

When the atmosphere of faith gradually takes shape, those who come later can only blend in and follow others in believing in Karen.

As long as the number of people who believe in Karen is large enough and devout enough, he can start the ascension ceremony, announce it to the world, and seek recognition from the world. Of course, his own strength is also very important. If the strength is not strong enough, the ascension ceremony will not succeed.

God is a combination of divine power, divine nature, and divinity. Its power is determined by the number and piety of its followers. If the believers disappear and the worship is lost, the power of the god will wither, and the divine nature and ability will decline, and the god may even perish.

The people’s faith is the pass to start the ceremony and ignite the sacred fire. It is the key to becoming a god, and it is equally important after becoming a god.

To gain faith, one needs a concept and a reliance. You cannot ask people to believe in you out of thin air without asking for anything in return. This concept and reliance are part of the function of the priesthood.

Because they are vampires, they worship the "God of Vampires"; because they want to make money, they offer sacrifices to the "Goddess of Commerce"; because they want to travel safely, they pray for blessings from the "God of Roads".

Priesthood can play a directional role. Without something to represent and without priesthood to point to, it would be difficult to gain faith. This is an extremely important part of the existence of gods.

At the same time, priesthood is also power. By obtaining priesthood, one can bind this power, the rules of the world, and the gods themselves.

The priesthoods that Karen originally planned to obtain were "Combat" and "Blood". Of course, these positions were already occupied by people, and none of them were weak. Those who could obtain these priesthoods were all ruthless people.

Timpas, the god of war, is a man of great power. The priesthoods of war, combat, and warriors are all under his name. He has many subordinate gods and is a huge force in the entire Torres pantheon. He is one of the most well-known gods.

The Blood God, also known as the God of Slaughter, is a god of medium power who controls the priesthood of slaughter, tyranny, and blood. He is an evil and powerful god who is hostile to many gods, including the former Lady of the Night.

By choosing these two paths, it seems that Karen has overestimated his own abilities and picked two powerful opponents.

But in fact, it is not the case, because the "battle" that Karen pursues is the "Vampire God of War", which is dependent on the vampires and does not affect the God of War, because this does not originally belong to him, but is a newly created priesthood.

As for "blood", they just try to make a move, since they have always been in a hostile relationship with the "Blood God".

However, Karen has temporarily given up the pursuit of the two priesthoods of "combat" and "blood", and instead focused on the racial concept of "vampires". With the death of the Lady of the Night and the near extinction of the vampires, this priesthood naturally became vacant. For Karen, this is undoubtedly the simplest and most convenient way.

The concept of racial god is indeed a shortcut to becoming a god for weaker races, because weaker races need a common god to protect them, and it is easy to form a collective belief.

The priesthood of this racial god is usually held by the creator of the race, or the first person born, or an individual who plays an extremely important role in the development of the race.

Karen now obviously meets these characteristics very well. To the entire vampire clan, he is the one who recreates the vampire clan.

However, it is naturally very difficult for the sparsely populated blood clan to become gods, so Karen still has to make use of the existence of humans and lizardmen. As long as they offer blood to the "God of Blood Clan", they can get protection, and other people will not be rejected.
