I think you can't even imagine the happiness of a warlock.

As the (self-proclaimed) Pope of the Mechanicum, Brotto, who has risen to the level of a fourth-level priest through unremitting hard work, study and innovation, is sure that there is no one in the entire Essendria who understands his own gods better than him.

Although the God of Cats and Industrialization ignores the prayers of believers, he has not even revealed his doctrine, and does not issue any revelations or tasks to priests under any circumstances.

※I issued the order, but Brotto didn’t believe it.

But while He gave believers the luck of cats, He also put everything on the path they were going to take.

Anyone who practices the path of industrialization will eventually receive its inspiration.

"But you don't even know what people call them." Chen Zhou caught the flaw and hit him.

Brotto was speechless for a moment, and shouted with a blush: "It means this is not important at all...and I am not a believer of the Father of All Machines, so it is normal not to know."

He almost couldn't help but start an argument with the other party.

After another moment of silence, the dwarf asked curiously: "Do you know?"

Chen Zhou shook his head and ran away, almost being bypassed by the other party.

"Let's not talk about who knows the Father of All Machines better, you or me. If you don't believe that this thing was the work of the other party before he became a god, you can use divine magic to check it."

After hearing this, Brotto became a little hesitant, secretly wondering why the other party was so confident.

"Then I have to spend a day preparing the magic again."

"Whatever you want, tomorrow is still the same time." Chen Zhou put away the remaining rare items, "But tomorrow is the latest. After that, I will go to the goblin tribe in Silberquail Mountain to investigate the strength and personnel allocation. .”

After that, he didn't drink the lemonade in front of him, and left leisurely alone, disappearing in the dark night.

Brotto was interested in tracking down the maker of this ice and snow construct, but the food he ordered happened to be on the table, so he didn't care about it for the time being.

Anyway, we have to do it again tomorrow at this time.

He suspected that the other party might also be a priest from the Father of All Opportunities, and he deliberately came to find trouble because he expected to become the pope.

In this case, I must put down the work at hand tonight and carefully summarize the knowledge related to the Mechanicum to debate with the opponent!

There is no one like him,

Learn more about the Father of All Machines,

With the Adeptus Mechanicus.

But then again, if that thing is genuine and not a forgery, is it possible that the Mechanicus is very popular in other planes?

Probably not, Brotto thought as he ate, even the earliest works of the Father of All Machines were not so amateurish...

……

While the Pope (self-proclaimed) was thinking hard and debating with someone, Chen Zhou himself, who had obtained some information from the other party, was unhappy in the Shangbi.

He finally understood why he had blocked contact with priests and others, and why people from other planes believed in him inexplicably.

This also starts with the past and present life of divine magic, that is, sacred magic.

In most cases, divine magic in the past came from gods or divine-like beings. A small number of them stole divine power, like blasphemous priests, or mastered the most primitive divine power, like dossier scholars.

But in fact, divine power does not come only from God.

Even people with no faith can still perform divine magic and become priests.

In this case, their divine power comes from the being or realm to which their beliefs are aligned.

A believer's firm belief in a certain idea in the universe is also enough to gain magical power from it. Some clerics are dedicated to an idea rather than a god and gain magical abilities from it, just as druids and rangers are connected to the force of nature.

Likewise, paladins derive their powers from a desire to serve justice or chivalry, rather than from a specific deity.

The Force and Will are not worshiped, and their existence cannot hear and respond to prayers, nor can they accurately accept offerings.

But in a world where the power of gods can manifest through its priests, it is difficult not to have a connection with the existence of gods, and usually the wish force belief treats these gods as mortal comrades with the same beliefs as the believer himself.

Chen Zhou's current state is somewhat close to confusion between the belief in the force and the power of will.

He himself masters related fields and clergy, and possesses some of the Force powers in the cat and forging fields.

At the same time, a very small number of people on the road to industrialization gained the power of will and thus perceived his existence, thereby transforming belief in concepts into belief in himself.

Then these people further preached and expanded the number of people who knew about it, but they were able to become pastors with the help of their vows.

Although Chen Zhou himself is not important, in the eyes of the Mechanicum, he is just a symbol, a concrete image of the road to industrialization.

But these unclassifiable people were also classified as his followers.

"Now the truth is revealed, but how to solve it?"

First of all, this means that it is meaningless even if he destroys the Mechanicus one after another. More people walking on this road may sense his presence and approach at any time.

Not only the plane of Essangzhia, with Chen Zhou's choice and the return of industrialization, more and more people (including gods) will become aware of his existence.

The most outrageous thing is that since the source of the believer's divine power is not him, there may even be a funny scene where Chen Zhou's priest is stronger than himself!

It is naturally impossible for ordinary people to know how to deal with such a troublesome and high-end problem.

So he directly contacted Speaker Sanhua, who was in the Great River Territory at this time, and asked him to help ask the animal lords of Elysium for a solution.

After all, Chen Zhou also unlocked the source of divine power without any detailed understanding. He is still a primary school student in the quasi-god world. Learning alone is too slow. He will definitely gain a lot from asking the big guys for advice.

"No problem. I'll ask the other civet gods to use "theosophy" to ask Mother Bear for advice later. But from your description, this doesn't sound like a bad thing. How do you plan to solve it? "

"You don't want to do any work yourself?"

"Yes, of course we can do it, but haven't I seen any precedent for this?"

At least Speaker Sanhua has never seen any god take the initiative to deal with a church for which he was not at fault.

"How about directing these beliefs towards the domain itself?" Chen Zhou had no regrets. After all, he only chose the source of divine power for their respective abilities and immunity.

"Little kitten, this is called buying a casket for a pearl, right?"

"You can manage it for Lily. Lily promises to use her amazing wisdom to manage all pastors and churches in an orderly manner!" 』

"Well, you can consider it, but let's refer to Boyer the Great White Bear's opinion first."

As long as these beliefs don't cause him any trouble, Chen Zhou actually doesn't care.

If it really cannot be stopped, human intervention, legalizing it and controlling it to a certain scale would be a strategy...

Just when Chen Zhou was about to cut off contact and seriously plan a plan to control his church, Chairman Sanhua suddenly remembered another important event.

"By the way, some time ago, Burning Frost's Ultimate Ice Weapon has been built and is ready to be sent over at any time! One more thing, the magic network in the Asta plane has begun to be gradually repaired!"
