Chapter 877: 876. We unite!
“Do more good deeds?”
Lei Ting heard this phrase and was utterly confused.
Moreover, what places needed their help?
He couldn’t understand at all.
At that mont, a man with crystallized eyes beside Lei Ting suddenly stood up.
“I understand now.”
“What do you understand?”
Everyone else was equally baffled, so when soone suddenly declared their understanding, it was naturally a good thing, and they all inquired eagerly.
“The aning of the oracle is that we must not just consider ourselves; we need to help others more, win over the people’s hearts. Without their support, even if we could make everyone in Utopia ascend, it would only be repeating the current situation. Everyone would still be fighting their own battles, unable to unite.”
He spoke, clenching his fist as if to twist everyone into a single rope.
“We must unite, gather all possible forces! Right now, there are definitely citizens in Utopia who need our help. We must help them as much as possible in order to travel farther when the new era arrives!”
After finishing, he looked expectantly at Lu Ban, hoping for divine approval.
Lu Ban didn’t respond; he felt these people were really capable of overthinking things — he himself hadn’t thought that much.
Since they said it was so, then it must be.
“The third command, learn extensively, interact, and broaden your horizons.”
“The fourth command…”
Lu Ban racked his brains, his entire body twitching as he finally managed to co up with ten commandnts.
“The tenth command, sleep early, wake early, and strengthen your body.”
After each commandnt, the people of the Quicksand Council would discuss fervently and formulate a set of guidelines for action.
“Indeed, even if work is not finished, we still need to balance work and rest.”
“Yes, indeed, only with sufficient experience can we face potential crises.”
“It’s decided, from today on, be an early riser!”
The people of the Quicksand Council promptly recorded these commandnts and their interpretations, which they sumd up as the “Heavenly Father’s Ten Commandnts,” and placed them in a room on the third floor.
Lu Ban figured that these people wouldn’t be up to any mischief for the ti being, so he decided to retreat.
After all, he had been gone too long; perhaps those tracking fellows were getting impatient, snooping outside Lu Ban’s house.
“I will continue to bestow oracles; you should adhere to the commandnts and praise my na.”
Lu Ban thus spoke.
“Praise the Heavenly Father!”
Lei Ting said first.
“Praise the Heavenly Father!”
The others echoed.
Lu Ban listened as the Godfather’s grumbling murmurs reached his ears.
He contentedly dispersed himself, disappearing into the ground.
After Lu Ban left, Lei Ting glanced at the others.
“Ladies and gentlen, the road ahead has been clearly pointed out by the [Heavenly Father]. You all know what we need to do next, right?”
The others in the room exchanged glances.
At that mont, soone suddenly spoke out.
“Lei Ting, why do I feel that what [Heavenly Father] said is a bit strange?”
As soon as he spoke, he saw a group of people looking at him.
“No, what I an is, these commandnts are good, but aren’t they a bit different from the things we’ve done before?”
He hurriedly explained.
“The revelations given by Divine Beings to humans are usually vague because Divine Beings never care specifically what humans will think or do, which is why we need people like us, to listen to Divine instructions and interpret them to the believers.”
Lei Ting was not angry, but slowly explained.
After all, maintaining a calm deanor and being kind to others were also commandnts left by Lu Ban.
“Our previous understanding of Divine revelations was flawed, and now that [Heavenly Father] has personally appeared to correct us, it proves our devoutness.”
Lei Ting gently patted the other’s shoulder.
“Praise the Heavenly Father, for He has given us, the lost, the only salvation.”
“Praise the Heavenly Father!”
“Praise the Heavenly Father!”
Everyone bowed their heads again, chanting.
“Let’s start with cleaning.”
Seeing that everyone was very devout, Lei Ting said.
…
Almost simultaneously, sowhere in the wasteland.
Atop a sand dune, the sky darkened, with clouds that hadn’t been seen in the desert for decades gathering. Within those dark clouds, red lightning zigzagged, and the clouds shrouded the area, letting torrential rain soak the sandy ground, washing away the sharp particles on the surface to reveal the earth’s original form.
If one could look down from high above, they would see that the clouds stretched for thousands of kiloters, covering most of the visible land.
At the center of the torrential rain, water pooled into a vast ocean, and buried, dusty things under the gravel that had been hidden for hundreds of years were being uncovered by the raging water, fostering life and fiercely interacting with the changing environnt.
At the edge of the torrential rain, a figure was cursing as he stood up from the sand.
Although he had a body size similar to a human’s, his lower half consisted of nurous smooth, octopus-like tentacles. His upper body, however, was encased in a yellow protective suit. He appeared to have no arms or normal limbs, and instead of a head, there was a large, fully transparent helt, inside which his head was visible.
His head was round, with eyes scattered around, peering into the surroundings; he had no mouth, nose, or ears, just those nurous eyes, opening and closing on his bald head.
Among his tentacles, he held a peculiar Divine Idol.
If Lu Ban had been here, he would have recognized at a glance that it was identical to the [Benevolent Heavenly Father Statue].
“Who could it be that is interfering with my communication?”
The eyes of the creature continuously opened and closed, the complex flickering forming a ssage that reflected his thoughts.
Having been chosen by Divine Beings to co from his world to the Foreign Domain to complete missions many tis, this mission was unprecedented in its difficulty [Splendid].
However, the objective of the mission was quite simple, nothing more than helping one faction win.
For him, destroying a city was an easy feat, let alone helping them win.
He really could not imagine any difficulty in this mission.
However, after learning about the characteristics of the city, he did not rashly enter, but used this Divine Idol instead.
Divine Idols worked in pairs and could communicate with each other, but this communication carried a trait of Pollution, making it extrely easy for the weaker party to succumb.
Even he had to be very cautious while using it, because the Divine Beings represented by the idol were probably sealed sowhere. Although they would not suddenly wake up to attack him, prolonged use of the Divine Idol would still result in falling into Pollution, losing cognition.
Originally, he had tricked a traveling rchant to use this Divine Idol to infiltrate Utopia, gaining control over the group of unruly children.
Next was to use the power of the Divine Idol to spread plague, turning the entire city’s population into zombies. As long as all the people in the city beca zombies, his mission would be considered complete.
But who was that person just now?
