Demigod Mage in America

This was the first time Raine had ever received faith at the priest level; it was the first time he had ever seen such a thing, both in the past and now.

Unlike the simple brightness before, Catherine's power of faith was not as bright as the faith of a deacon.

But it possesses something that other powers of faith lack—crystallization.

A layer of crystals, like icing sugar, covered the surface of the light sphere.

In other words, if this statement has any substance, then the power of faith at the priest level and above is no longer just an adjective.

The crystal-clear spherical object was held in Renn's palm, containing the purest power of faith.

For God, the best offering is a saintly believer who, after death, returns to God's kingdom.

Because that means there's one more like-minded person on this path.

Secondly, there is the collective prayer and praise of believers. This day is usually a festival of a god, and believers will offer their faith and sincere blessings from the bottom of their hearts.

And the gods often reciprocate, for example by healing injuries or giving small gifts.

After all, faith always involves both belief and response; if there is only belief and no response, then who will believe?

Raine crushed the golden ball in his hand, and a golden torrent, even more spectacular than the last fragment, surged into his heart.

Boom!Boom!

A primal, wild heartbeat rang out, and then Renn discovered that his heart had begun to emit a faint glow.

"Huh? The enhancement even comes with built-in LEDs?"

He looked at his heart, which was radiating a seven-colored light, and couldn't help but twitch his lips.

It felt very strange, because although he couldn't see it with the naked eye, he could see it with his eyes!

Although he disliked it, it was still a part of his own body. He couldn't be like Bi Gan, could he?

He curiously began to study the changes in his own heart.

After a thorough investigation, he discovered that the changes were quite significant.

The most significant changes are in authority and spellcasting ability.

Now, Raine can cast sixth-circle spells while standing at home, and if he stands in the office, his spellcasting ability will increase by two more circles, meaning he can already cast eighth-circle spells.

In his world, this level of spellcasting ability was enough to be considered that of a grandmaster.

The status of spellcasters is actually much higher than that of most warriors; reaching the fourth ring is enough to make them a guest of honor of a king.

If one can reach the seventh ring or above, generally speaking, these people will no longer be subordinates of a certain force, but will instead build their own force.

Eight rings would be enough for him to establish an empire and rule it himself.

After all, mages can usually extend their lifespan to seven or eight hundred years, which is similar to that of ordinary elves.

By the time they reach the ninth ring, these people are usually so powerful that half the continent revolves around them.

As for those who reach the legendary ninth ring or above, which is the level of Renn's normal state, people usually have another name for this kind of existence.

The Witch King, the King of Wizards, the King of Witchcraft, once he reaches the legendary level, no matter where he goes in the world, all secular forces have to give him face.

They are walking nuclear weapons; if they want to detonate, they have the ability to drag half the world down with them at any time.

Raine was pleased with the conquest he had gained. Now, if he so desired, he could have a king abdicate and sit on the throne himself.

Besides that, the biggest surprise is probably the new function brought by the heart.

Previously, all the rules that Ryan designed had to be designed by himself, but now he can let the rules deduce themselves.

Renn snapped his fingers, and a rift was suddenly torn open in space.

"Get rid of that thing."

He glanced at the corpse on the ground, gestured for the invisible servants to get to work, and then walked into the dimensional portal himself.

The moment you step inside, the distance between spaces is instantly erased.

Raine went directly from the apartment to the firm.

Release the magic net from your hand and let it float slowly to the center of the office.

"The rules here have changed."

He clasped his hands together, and the magic net emitted a dazzling light, causing the entire scene in the agency to change rapidly.

The old-fashioned shops have been transformed into a spacious square.

He wrote the rules in the air with his fingers.

1. The use of modern heavy firepower is prohibited in this area.

[2. A bounty will drop upon defeating the target. Escaping with the bounty will grant you the reward.]

3. Hunters who die within the area can spend bounty to have a chance to revive; once the bounty is depleted, they will die permanently.

After completing this step, Raine put his hands behind his back and relinquished further control, allowing the magic network to deduce the rules on its own.

Under the simulation of the magic network, the surrounding plazas rise from the ground to high-rise buildings. If anyone were here, they would be horrified to discover that this is actually a microcosm of Manhattan.

Although it doesn't cover the entire Manhattan area yet, it does cover most of the neighborhoods.

Immediately afterwards, a whole bunch of random objects started appearing on the street.

There were first aid supplies, firearms and ammunition, as well as fragmentation grenades and Molotov cocktails, among other items.

During each hunt, supplies and weapons will randomly spawn in public areas such as streets and houses.

Ryan stroked his chin; this was something he had overlooked.

They've all fallen into homelessness; if they had money, they'd probably just buy leaves or something. If they were to participate in hunting, it seems they really wouldn't be able to find any weapons—not counting street weapons.

The scene rotates, and the perspective is zoomed in on an apartment building. A beam of red light shoots into the sky, forming a skull with ram's horns in the air.

There were also a few smaller skeletons nearby that didn't have horns.

Each hunt consists of a core objective (the ram's horn skeleton) and secondary objectives. Secondary objectives may contain information about the core objective's weaknesses or other aspects, or may offer better supplies.

The perspective gradually rises, expanding from the apartment building to a macro view of several nearby blocks.

One by one, white dots began to appear and scattered in every corner.

Once the hunt begins, information such as the target's name, photo, and home address will be scattered as clues throughout the map. Hunters can use their Hunter's Senses to find these clues and pinpoint the target.

"Hmm, that's a good idea."

Ryan suddenly realized something was wrong halfway through his sentence.

Is this essentially a preview server? Or a test server, just in a closed beta?

One rule after another was deduced; those that satisfied Renn were kept, while those that did not were rejected outright.

At this moment, Ryan transforms into the most hated client among all service providers, making all sorts of unreasonable demands.

Meanwhile, MagicNet relentlessly introduces new rules one after another.

In the end, in addition to the basic rules mentioned above, Rennes added three more rules.

The venue is interactive but cannot be damaged.

The lost items will eventually return to their owners, and will be credited to the hunter's account as a virtual bounty.

Attacking personnel other than the designated target is prohibited.

The stage has now been set up.

Next, all the actors took the stage.

Ryan rubbed his chin, deep in thought.

Where can I get money? David has been working very hard lately, and his wallet is almost empty.

He quickly swept over the legal businesses in America.

Guns? No way, I don't have the time for that. Besides, while the returns are high, the cash flow is a bit slow.

Ye Zi... well, he didn't really have any thoughts about it; he just felt disgusted by the thing.

Smuggling? That's illegal.

Lottery... seems like a good option.

"But it's still a bit slow. Is there a faster one...?"
