Manga from the Age of God

The human clans who were watching from afar, out of fear of the unknown, also began to worship him one after another.

And he was called "God who rules the sky".

......

The sun rises over the eastern horizon and a new day begins.

In Cypriot City, the residents woke up from their slumber and immediately began to work hard.

Vendors in the city pack their goods and push wooden carts to the streets, while farmers in the suburbs take sickles and hoes and leave the village to their own wheat fields.

I met neighbors or acquaintances along the way, and we gathered together in twos and threes to chat while walking.

But it is a little different from the lively scene in the city.

The farmers in the villages on the outskirts of the city have worried faces on their faces.

"This year's harvest has dropped a lot again..."

"Under the blessing of the gods, the weather has been good for the whole year..."

Looking at the sparse ears of wheat in the wheat field, a farmer with a hoe frowned.

Thinking of the need to pay various taxes to the nobles in Athens after harvesting the wheat, his dark face was tangled like the bark of an old tree.

The harvest in the fields is getting less and less, and I really can't even pay the agricultural tax!

Just then, there was a faint roar in the sky.

A bright red radiance broke through the morning sun, and flew towards the distant ocean with a graceful posture.

"It is the crown of the goddess Aphrodite!"

All the farmers kneeled respectfully, bowing their heads and waiting for the gods to pass by.

But out of some kind of unwillingness, a farmer suddenly said loudly:

"Your Majesty the Goddess, your believers hope to see God's face and listen to your teachings face to face!"

The people around him tensed up and looked at him in horror.

"...You dare to let the goddess fall to the ground, are you crazy?!"

They were at a loss, and when they shivered and knelt on the ground, the red glow in the sky quietly expanded a bit.

The main body is still heading towards the distant ocean, but there are a few rays of light scattered, which converge into a humanoid female phantom.

The phantom was wearing a white dress, with bright red hair falling on his shoulders and back, dancing slowly with the wind.

The huge wings behind her fluttered and slowly landed on the ground before coming to the farmer.

Although the gods did not exude any powerful aura fluctuations, all human beings still felt repressed from the heart.

Can only keep chanting the name of God, praying for Goddess Aphrodite's forgiveness.

At this moment, a soft voice spit out from the goddess' mouth.

"Are you in need of guidance?"

It seems... a little happy.

Aware of this, the surrounding human emotions suddenly relaxed.

The farmer hurriedly kowtowed and said loudly:

"Goddess of mercy—"

"Wait." Aphrodite interrupted him suddenly.

The goddess tilted her head and seemed a little confused.

"The humans of Moore City in the north, they all call me [beautiful goddess]... Could it be that the humans of Cyp City don't like the ears on top of my head?"

Someone heard the sound and raised his eyes quietly.

I saw the goddess's red hair, and she was standing with a pair of ears similar to fox ears, and she trembled as the voice fell.

"...You are kind and beautiful, Your Majesty!"

"Your ears (afcc) are the most beautiful ears I've ever seen!"

A bunch of flattery.

Although these farmers have few opportunities to deal with gods, they can also vaguely feel it from various anecdotes.

Um... In the face of the gods, you have to touch the hair.

"Very good." Aphrodite nodded with satisfaction: "Tell me, my believer, is there any confusion in your heart that you need me to teach in person?"

"It is like this, my gracious and beautiful goddess!"

The farmer hurriedly said:

"In recent years, the weather has been good. Some of the powerful monsters that were originally entrenched in the vicinity have already been killed by you and other gods. We have always been on guard against the beasts trampling the fields at night."

"It stands to reason that the harvest of wheat fields should increase year by year... Why is there no disaster, our food production will still drop sharply?"

"Eh? Can't grow food in the ground?"

Aphrodite's big amber eyes blinked, and her bright red wings flapped subconsciously behind her back.

"It seems like a serious problem for humans..."

Saying so, she glanced at the wheat field in the distance, her eyebrows wrinkled indistinctly, and finally clapped her hands.

"It's very simple, the land has been planted all year round, and it is already very deficient in nutrients. You need to rotate the planting and then fertilize..."

Aphrodite simplified and simplified some of the planting information that her civilization knew, and finally let the surrounding humans understand.

"Then, Your Majesty the gracious and beautiful goddess, according to the method you taught, will the output of the wheat fields increase next year?"

The farmers present looked at her expectantly.

Facing the eager gazes of the believers, Aphrodite hesitated for a moment before nodding with a smile:

"Yes, I will."

"Thank you very much for your teaching, Your Majesty." The farmers knelt on the ground in excitement and said, "Please wait a little longer, we will prepare the sacrifices immediately..."

"Speaking of sacrifices, I was curious before."

Aphrodite suddenly interrupted, she pointed to a pipe that a farmer was holding, still smoking lightly, sniffed at the tip of her nose, and said with interest:

"what is that?"

"The dry tobacco I made myself, Your Majesty."

Being watched by the goddess' eyes, the farmer felt a little helpless.

He was about to say something when Aphrodite nodded:

"I love the taste... Today's offering is decided to be it!"

So, half an hour later, with satisfaction, Aphrodite took the new pipe made by the farmers in a hurry, flapped her wings, and flew into the sky again.

She tentatively lit the cut tobacco, put it to her mouth and took a breath.

I couldn't help but gasped again.

Then he exclaimed:

"Well... not bad! Humans are really amazing to have invented such a spicy taste!"

At this moment, Aphrodite fell silent again.

She could feel that the unification ship Kronos was sending orders to the main body through the center.

[Aphrodite, please report the outer ring resource detection location. 】

The goddess in the white skirt hesitated, and then looked back at the direction of the earth.

"Is there already...is there no food in the ground?".

Chapter 20 The Rebellious Third Generation Ship

After a day of resource detection, the mechanical hull of the Aphrodite returned, ready to return to the Olympus Mountains for precise airframe testing.

She rose from an island in the love sea.

The energy furnace was activated, causing the huge alien ship to emit bright red light to the outside, and the engine ejected violent fire, piercing the sunset like a meteor.

In the sky, Aphrodite subconsciously scans the earth and can see countless human beings, still working hard outside.

She has been on this planet for nearly a thousand years, especially after gaining [Intelligence] inexplicably under the worship of humans, she can already use her ship's processor to think.

——From the beginning, it can only simulate the trajectory of human mental particles, and gradually has its own thinking mode and faint emotional factors.

Although Aphrodite felt very surprised and disturbed, she accepted it with joy.

She accepted that she no longer only acted according to logical judgments, and accepted that she would inexplicably emerge some kind of impulse, some kind of bias, some kind of likes and dislikes and interests.

Although this seems to seriously affect [efficiency].

But Aphrodite still couldn't let go of that strange feeling.

Instead of reporting it to the Kronos center, she decided to keep this abnormal virus-like obstacle quietly.

In order to communicate with humans more conveniently and gain a more comprehensive [intellect] and [emotion], Aphrodite even quietly intercepted the collected planetary energy, and created an energy body for herself according to the physical characteristics of human beings.

It was her anthropomorphic avatar who responded to those peasant believers before.

"There's already... no dealers can grow in the ground."

During the process of returning the real machine, Aphrodite silently scanned the entire land, feeling quite distressed.

She is all too aware of the creatures' needs for food—just as their mechanical hulls require constant energy consumption.

That is an indispensable and necessary resource.

And according to the route scans she travels every day, the closer you get to the Olympus Mountains, the more desolate the land becomes.

In recent centuries, human clans near the mountains have migrated far away one after another.

Not driven by their mechanical fleet.
