Becoming God starting with the word game in Lord of Mysteries

Chapter 127 Amon's Request

Li Ming clicked on the introductions of each church.

【The Palace of No Form (Church of the Fools): A cult that believes in the Lord of Mystery. After joining, you can choose one of three extraordinary abilities to be empowered: divination, theft, or walking through walls】

[Haoli (Church of Eternal Darkness): A cult that believes in "Eternal Darkness". After joining, you can choose one of three extraordinary abilities to be empowered: "Combat", "Corpse Collection" and "Sleeplessness".]

【The Drought-Stricken Nation (Church of Calamity): A cult that believes in the destruction of natural disasters. After joining, you can choose one of four extraordinary abilities to enhance your character: "Lightness," "Assassination," "Physical Enhancement," or "Trap Setting."】

[Taoism (Church of Knowledge): A sect that believes in the "Demon of Knowledge." You can choose to be empowered by either the "Eye of Secrets" or the "Memory Awakening" ability.]

Thirty-Three Heavens (Church of Order): A sect that believes in the "Shadow of Order." You can choose to enhance either the "Mind Distortion" or "Arbitration Authority" abilities.

"In other words, the choice of a sect roughly determines the extraordinary power one may acquire in the future, as well as the direction of one's advancement."

Li Ming pondered silently, considering that this game was influenced by extraordinary factors.

Once you've truly joined a faction, it's highly unlikely you can change course, or changing course will come at a great cost.

Therefore, it is best to choose a stronger faction from the beginning.

Just then, a message popped up.

You have received a letter from afar. Will you open it?

"Oh?"

You have received an invitation from the goddess of fate. Will you accept it?

Invitation from the Goddess of Fate: Upon receiving the invitation from the Goddess of Fate, you will be automatically transferred to the Church of the Dream Seekers.

Li Ming stared at the message that popped up in front of him, then burst into joy.

"The Goddess of Fortune? A new option, is this my cheat code?"

"Could I be the chosen one?"

However, Li Ming did not immediately accept the invitation. He planned to look at the guides first and "go online to see what other people are saying."

Since it concerned the future, he didn't want to make a hasty decision, so he opened the newly launched "God" forum.

There were already quite a few posts above. He clicked on the pinned post, and the first one was a question.

"Wait, isn't our faction a bit too evil? This introduction doesn't even look like a legitimate cult to me?"

A netizen with the ID "Da Yuanzhong" said this.

"I just want to be a good person, why are we being forced to choose an evil cult?" someone shouted on the website.

"I want to betray them, I want to report them, I want to join the righteous church."

"Didn't any of you see the announcement from 'The Bureau of Imagination'?" someone said, somewhat speechless. "Didn't they already say in the news a couple of days ago that the righteous gods in the game are the evil gods, and the evil gods are the righteous gods? What are you all pretending for?"

"I've never heard of any respectable church teaching people to steal. As for the Wuxiang Palace," I'm specifically referring to you, Lord of Mysteries. You don't sound like a good person at all.

"Be careful, you're blaspheming, and aren't there things like divination and walking through walls?"

"Are you sure that fortune-telling isn't just a charlatan? Is walking through walls just a way to steal things more easily?"

"Does anyone have any expert advice or suggestions on which one to choose?"

"Based on the information provided, the members of the Church of Eternal Darkness and the Church of Calamity seem to be the more powerful fighting forces, while the other three churches are more like support-type churches."

"If you want to have immediate combat power for early game progression, I recommend the Church of Eternal Darkness." (Choose a Fighter/Specialist)

"Tong", or "assassination" of the "Church of Calamity".

"However, before you make your choice, I hope you think it through. We live in a society governed by the rule of law. Even if you choose to become proficient in combat," it's still illegal to assault someone.

"Isn't that 'Palace of No Form' a bit weak? 'Divination,' 'Theft,' and 'Wall-Passing'—three extraordinary abilities, yet it seems to lack any real combat power. Wait, isn't this just a scam?"

"Is this 'Lord of Mysteries' really benevolent? I can't tell at all." Someone asked, looking puzzled.

"Actually, I feel like the Church of Knowledge isn't particularly strong. That memory awakening thing feels even more abstract than divination and theft. I work at a crematorium, and I feel like I could join the Church of Eternal Darkness and learn how to collect corpses."

"Here's a reminder: never assume that having extraordinary abilities gives you the right to overstep the law and do whatever you want."

A member bearing the Bureau of Extraordinary Thoughts' insignia cautioned, "The extraordinary abilities gained upon joining the cult are a form of protection provided to facilitate exploration in another universe."

"If one uses extraordinary abilities to engage in illegal or criminal activities in reality, being arrested will not only result in imprisonment, but also penalties such as 'ability banning' or even 'account suspension'."

"I've become an 'Extraordinary Person,' and you're telling me I still have to obey the law?"

"Friend, please wait a moment, someone will check your water meter shortly..."

'

"I was just kidding."

"In addition, many players have reported to our department that they have received invitations from 'evil gods.' We hope everyone will have the courage to refuse and not do anything that you will regret or that will bring tears to your family's eyes."

"An Invitation from the Evil Gods"

Upon seeing this, Li Ming's expression changed. He quickly opened another list of evil gods, and when he saw one of the names, he was immediately terrified.

"The goddess of fate and the dreamer" were prominently listed above.

In the other world, Zhu Jin and the others stared solemnly at the information before them.

[Congratulations to player "Dongjun," the Lost One, for clearing the "Mythical Story Dungeon"—"Elegy of the Setting Sun"]

"Dongjun..."

Millet repeated the name.

"Dongjun" is the name of a deity representing the sun in the "Chu" mythology. He holds an extremely high position, second only to Donghuang Taiyi.

But this title was used on a player who had even completed a "mythical" story dungeon.

"Mistress, who is 'Dongjun'?" Zhu Jin asked.

Su Mi shook her head, but the rise and fall of her chest also indicated her unease.

Those ordinary players who have just joined the game may not understand the concept of mythical story dungeons, but she does.

"A mythical-level story dungeon... is it really possible for someone to clear it at this time?" Zhu Jin asked cautiously.

Upon hearing this, Millet said softly, "Following the will of the Great Mother, we are responsible for nurturing the divine child, allowing divinity to descend into reality."

"The rice and the others have already completed their mission."

"But of the five matriarchs, I'm the only one who didn't complete the final step of the task. Do you know why?"

Zhu Jin shook her head.

"Because my instance is a Heroic story instance, and in a key quest, I encountered a demigod from the Church of the Fools."

Thinking of this, a hint of fear suddenly appeared on Su Mi's face. "If it weren't for the protection of my great mother, I'm afraid I would have died quietly long ago."

"Although I survived, one of the key items fell into the hands of that demigod."

"If even the 'Heroic' level story dungeons can encounter demigods, then what about the Mythic level...?"

'

Zhu Jin was momentarily stunned. "Does that mean we have to face the real gods?"

"That's not all." Su Mi shook her head. "He beat the game."

This means that the player named "Dongjun" not only faced the gods directly but also became agile.

They even obtained what they wanted from the gods and escaped unscathed.

"Is this possible?" Zhu Jin murmured.

"Divinity has not yet truly descended into reality; in other words, this Eastern Lord is at most a Sequence 5 Extraordinary."

"He must have had the help of great beings," but it was still terrifying.

Su Mi desperately hoped it was just a bug or a loophole in the game, but she also knew better.

The possibility of such a notification being wrong is extremely low.

"Wait a minute." Just then, Su Mi thought of a possibility: "Could the 'blasphemer' that Gabriel went to deal with be the same 'Eastern Lord'?"

It's worth noting that Gabriel was previously granted an epic-level item.

She has only seen props of this caliber twice so far.

"Gabriel failed, so 'Dongjun' succeeded?"

Recalling the previous announcement of the death of the "Pure White Saint," this possibility is not low.

Su Mi slightly raised her head and looked at the red moon in the sky, as if she wanted to get answers from the god she believed in.

But the red moon just hung there, without making any sound.

"Madam, now that Dongjun has cleared the mythical-level story dungeon, what did he obtain, and has his strength increased significantly?" Zhu Jin asked.

Su Mi was slightly taken aback.

Theoretically speaking, the difficulty of a mythical-level story dungeon should be such that the rewards should be at least legendary-level.

Rewards of that level, even demigod-level potions and blessings, would seem cheap.

What will Dongjun get after clearing the level?

However, it was clear that this level of reward had exceeded her expectations.

Su Mi could only shake her head and say, "I don't know."

"However, one thing is certain: there is still some time before divinity descends into reality, and that Dongjun should not be able to overcome this rule and advance to become a demigod."

Su Mi sighed, gazing at the giant flower bud on the hill, her eyes slightly lowered. "Right now, I just hope he doesn't come and ruin our current operation."

Flowers in full bloom, the moon full, and the harvest plentiful.

As long as the "Fallen God Child" completes his growth here, the same effect as clearing that story dungeon can be achieved.

"A shepherd"—she wasn't particularly afraid.

But if another "Dongjun" who knows absolutely nothing about them were to appear, then they could forget about playing the game.

Just then, a message appeared on her phone.

[You have triggered the oracle of the Fallen Mother Goddess]

[Beware of the "Watcher of Chaos"]

"The guardian of chaos?" Su Mi was slightly taken aback.

What is the origin of this?

When Li Qianyi returned to reality, it was already quite dark.

He glanced at the time and sighed.

Nearly a day has passed since he entered that time; in other words, the flow of time on both sides is now very close.

But when Li Qianyi saw the headline news online about who Dong Jun was, he was still dumbfounded.

"My completion of the game was announced to the entire server?"

"Furthermore, the game will also be released for public testing in 8 hours."

Li Qianyi's expression changed, and he immediately had a guess in his mind.

"Could this be related to me clearing 'Elegy of the Setting Sun' and obtaining 'Access to the Chaos Sea'?"

At other times, he might have suspected other possibilities.

However, the timing of his acquisition of access to the Chaos Sea and the game's launch announcement was too close, almost as if they had planned it together.

If he said it didn't matter, he would have drunk the Chaos Sea dry.

"Don't panic!" Li Qianyi quickly calmed down.

His current identity in the Bureau of Fantasy is "Destiny Master," and in the darkness, he is "Shepherd." He can also create clones using the "Key of Emptiness and Fantasy."

With the added protection of "Mr. Fool" and "Goddess", few people could confirm his true identity.

However, he still needs to understand the current situation.

Li Qianyi first downloaded the game forum and browsed through the general information.

"China has been fixed as Mr. Fool's base, and all players can only choose from these factions."

"This is a good thing."

With the game becoming a reality, the nationwide launch of servers seems to be an unstoppable trend.

As long as the right faction is chosen, most people are less likely to be corrupted by cultists.

"Players can directly gain extraordinary abilities upon entering the game. These extraordinary abilities should be similar to a blessing that can be withdrawn at any time."

"This will prevent too many people from gaining extraordinary abilities and causing destruction —"

"On the surface, our side still only has five 'Old Ones,' and the 'Key of Light' hasn't been born yet?"

Li Qianyi narrowed his eyes slightly.

The Key of Light, whose name is endless chaos, is the embodiment of destiny.

Among the six Great Old Ones who initially split apart, this one is also an extremely special existence.

He is not merely the source that was not contained by the "Primordial God" and the "Heavenly Venerable of Blessing and Prosperity".

More importantly, the Key of Light also represents the fate of the "original creator".

Considering the slight revival of the original creator's will, it is difficult to determine the current state of the Key of Light.

But according to Li Qianyi's current speculation, there may be a similar arrangement to the "City of Calamity" in the "Key of Light".

"Was there a contingency plan for His resurrection arranged in each of the six initially split primordial elements?"

Li Qianyi felt a chill run down his spine upon closer examination.

Just then, a message popped up.

You have received a letter from Amon from afar.

[Open?]

At the end of the story in Anning Town, Li Qianyi did not see this guy appear.

Now he's even written him another letter.

Li Qianyi chose to open it.

Select "Yes"

In order to get my "business license" back, I need to open a small shop in the other world of "Great Mother". I would like to ask you to do a few things for me.

You won't refuse my request, right? Amon (monocleidoscope)
