I evolve infinitely in the Marvel world...

This opportunity lies in passing the test of the Void God Cult, receiving their blessing, and awakening the power within him, thus giving him hope for revenge.

Gamora, Rocket, Nebula, Groot, and Drax believed in him and lent him a large sum of money directly.

Faced with this sole hope and the support of his companions, Star-Lord disregarded what others said.

No matter how difficult the trials, he would not easily leave Void Island.

Chapter 420 The Essence of the Trial

However, figuring out what constitutes piety is not something that can be done overnight.

So Star-Lord wasn't in a hurry. It was getting late, so he left, wanting to get used to life on the island first.

Star-Lord followed the map to the dining hall, where there were as many as fifty chefs, but not many customers.

Star-Lord went straight to the ordering area.

Why are there so few people here?

Star-Lord asked a question to a chef dressed in a spotless white chef's uniform who looked extremely clean and tidy.

"Judging from your appearance, you must be a guest from out of town seeking a favor, right?"

The chef smiled when he saw that Star-Lord had actually asked that question.

"Ah."

Star-Lord nodded in agreement without denying it.

“This place used to be very lively every day, and we were always busy.”

"I've only had a bit more free time these past few days."

"I don't know the specifics, but I heard they went to the Void."

"After all, that place has been occupied by the Void God Cult."

"I'll have to go and take a look eventually."

Because there are relatively few members currently staying on the Void Island, these chefs are having a rare period of free time.

They didn't care whether Star-Lord, their guest, ordered food or not.

Because they received their money from Miss Sonia.

They cook as long as someone orders, and they prepare the ingredients when no one orders. It doesn't really matter how many people order from them.

The fact that the master of the Void had changed had caused quite a stir in the universe.

They were even directly involved in the Void God Cult's victory celebration banquet.

Therefore, knowing that occupying the Void Land is definitely something to be happy about for the Void God Cult.

"Did they go to take over the Land of Nothingness?"

"So there will be fewer members of the Void God Cult on the island in the future?"

Star-Lord listened to these words thoughtfully.

"Probably not."

"After all, Void Island is the headquarters of the Void God Cult, unless there is a major move by the higher-ups to prepare for a planetary relocation."

"Otherwise, this point will basically remain unchanged."

"As long as this is still our headquarters, it's only a matter of time before those big shots from the Void God Cult return."

A robust, two-meter-tall middle-aged man said with a smile.

They have been working here for five years.

The money they earned here made them rich, and they got used to life here.

They haven't reached retirement age yet, so none of them plan to give up their lucrative jobs and go home to retire.

Who are the important figures in the Void God Cult?

As he spoke, Star-Lord began ordering food, intending to have a proper chat with them.

"For ordinary people like us, those who join the Void God Cult are all big shots."

"But they are all quite easy to get along with and won't deliberately make things difficult for us ordinary people."

"Just relax on the island."

The chef wasn't surprised to see that Star-Lord had ordered such small portions. He looked at the dishes on the order and said with a smile.

The members of the Void God Cult all have huge appetites, while the others are of normal appetites; they can easily not finish a few dishes.

"You must have been working here for a long time, right?"

"Among the customers you've encountered, do you know anyone who was originally an ordinary person but later joined the Void God Cult?"

Star-Lord found it a bit strange that the chef next to him started preparing the food instead of the one in front of him, but since he had already ordered, he didn't feel embarrassed to ask for information.

"I know too many people I've greeted."

"It is true that those who believe in Lord Kassadin, the God of the Void, join the Cult of the Void, receive blessings, and soar to the heavens."

"However, the number of members who were able to successfully join the Void God Cult was initially one in a thousand, but now it is one in ten thousand."

"Not everyone can become that chosen one."

"So I've seen too many people full of ambition and aspirations leave with regrets."

The chef, upon hearing this, understood Star-Lord's meaning and smiled as he spoke.

He can be considered one of the witnesses who have seen the Void God Cult's assessments become increasingly rigorous step by step.

He also wanted to join the Void God Cult to gain a long lifespan, but he knew that this was not an easy thing that could be achieved simply by accumulating time.

"So what kind of behavior do people who can join the Void God Cult usually have?"

Star-Lord's main point in asking about the important figures wasn't to find out who those important figures were; he'd find out after staying here for a while and observing.

What he wanted to know was the overall character and style of the Void God Cult, which might be of some help to him.

"You're not the first person to ask this, and you won't be the last."

"However, I can tell you that the personalities of the important figures in the Void God Cult are all very diverse."

"There are domineering and arrogant ones, gentle, kind, lively and beautiful ones, knowledgeable and eloquent ones, and incredibly wealthy big shots who don't care about money."

"It includes all kinds of great figures with aloof and arrogant personalities."

"Therefore, there is no such thing as a personality or style that can be used as a reference."

"The only thing they have in common is their unwavering faith in the Church of the Void."

The chef, of course, knew what a guest like Star-Lord was thinking, and said slowly.

The New Year's pilgrimage is also the most lively day for the Void God Cult, when members of the Void God Cult scattered throughout the universe return to worship.

Thanks to Kassadin, the God of the Void, for his blessings; I feel nurtured by the Cult of the Void.

"Although I don't know if I can join, thank you for the information."

Upon hearing these words, Star-Lord looked at the chef and smiled.

Star-Lord then found a seat and sat down.

Based on the chef's words and the words of the Void Goddess Sonia just now.

You must believe everything you see, no matter what, and demonstrate your piety.

These words mean that one's faith will not be shaken by the words of others or by any other factors around them.

Believe in what you believe in your heart, believe that the blessing of the Void God Kassadin is real, and revere the Void as great.

There may be more than one path to demonstrate piety, but this is the key to gaining the approval and blessing of Kassadin, the god of the void.

It depends on whether you can be sure that you are truly devout enough.

This cannot be proven by words or by trickery.

Instead, they firmly believed in their inner desires and always held faith in Kassadin, the god of the void.

Many myths on Earth also reflect this; as long as one is devout enough, one can receive divine blessings.

Thinking about all this, Star-Lord's mind suddenly cleared up.

Others may have their beliefs and faith influenced by various factors.

But Star-Lord won't, because this is his only chance.

This moment is in the villa atop the mountain.

Harvey suddenly received a notification from the void.

Peter Jason Quill has applied to join the Void.

This surprised Harvey, who began to observe Xandar directly.

Just when Harvey had searched and thought Star-Lord wasn't on Xandar...

Harvey discovered that Star-Lord had arrived on the Void Isle at some point and was now having a meal in the dining area.

When did Star-Lord arrive?

Harvey, after seeing Star-Lord who could easily be overlooked in a crowd, looked at Sonia, who was eating, and asked her a question.

"At 3:10 pm today, he boarded the airship and arrived at Void Island."

"I checked in at 3:40."

"Then we arrived at the Void Temple at the expected 4:30."

"I also spotted him in the crowd just now."

"While others were easily swayed by words, he ultimately stayed."

"Perhaps it's because they just arrived today, so they don't know how cruel the test will be."

Upon seeing the name Mr. Kassadin mentioned, Sonia immediately released a projection to retrieve some information and then explained the details.

Piety cannot be faked.
