CHAPTER 88: CH 88 : THEA’S NEW TALENT

This flow of faith from Sunny had created a new talent for Thea.

Sunny opened the system display as a habit, even though he was the one who had created this talent and knew its content by heart.

[Talent: Energy Convertor

Grade: SS

Description: Can convert anything of SS and below SS grade into any form of energy according to your wish]

The description of the talent was easy to understand and followed the rule of conservation of energy.

It was a simple, elegant idea, but its possibilities were endless.

Sunny manifested a divine sword of SS-Grade and gave it to Thea.

Thea, knowing exactly what Sunny wanted, used her new talent, Energy Convertor.

Immediately, the sword vanished into thin air, a flash of energy that seemed to be absorbed by Thea.

Sunny felt his faith increasing, a powerful surge of energy that made his heart thrum with a new, divine rhythm.

"It worked!" he exclaimed, a triumphant smile on his face.

This talent, this simple, elegant idea, had opened up a new way to earn faith for him.

"Introduce a new tab to all the Gods. It should be called ’Bin’. You know the remaining work," Sunny said to Thea in a mysterious tone.

Thea nodded, and immediately, all the system panels for every God stopped working, and a few words were written on the system:

[Maintenance break...59 seconds]

The countdown was ticking, but the God Chat was still open, and this created a wave of excitement in all the Gods.

They began to speculate, billions upon billions of messages flowed one by one.

In this short span of one minute, Sunny earned more than ten billion faith points, as these Gods spammed message after message.

This was not an act of annoyance, but their way of showing gratitude to Sunny.

Because of him, families and friends were able to meet each other in a virtual world.

As the minute ended, the excitement in the Gods’ hearts died like a tsunami crashing.

The name of the new tab, ’Bin’, was not much appealing to them.

Many even cursed Sunny in their minds, but were afraid of being kicked from the system access, so they silently watched the God Chat.

The God Chat was now completely empty, no messages, no excitement.

Just then, a new message popped into the God Chat.

"Haha, what a wonderful feature," a God typed. Upon reading this message, the Gods were jolted awake from their initial disappointment and quickly opened the tab.

The tab consisted of just a single black hole and a line of text that said,

[Put all the unwanted things in this hole]

Once again, all the Gods were disappointed.

They were about to vent their frustration in the God Chat, but just then, a few more Gods typed praises.

This made the Gods who were about to complain stop in their tracks and try the effect of this new feature.

The God Chat went into an uproar once again, as they all realized the true genius of this new feature.

What the Gods lacked the most was faith, as it was required to do everything.

Sunny knew they were Gods created by Adam, and their path to Godhood was the path of faith.

Thus,faith was the most important thing.

This was what raised his evaluation for this new talent of Thea.

This would not only give Sunny a new faith source but at the same time, it would help the other Gods survive.

This was Sunny’s first step to making the other Gods powerful.

Once again, Sunny felt a huge amount of faith flowing into his being. "I missed this feeling," he said.

His faith directly crossed two hundred billion.

Why so many?

Because every time a God used the Bin feature of Thea, half of the faith would go to Sunny while the remaining half would go to the God.

When billions of Gods used this feature of Thea, half of the amount from billions of Gods was transferred to Sunny.

"With this, my problem of not having faith points is solved for now," Sunny said, a feeling of satisfaction washing over him.

He could finally lay back and let his demigods and clones do all the work. If he wanted something, he could just ask Thea.

This dream sounded good in Sunny’s ears, but it was a far-fetched thing.

He was aware of the demon lords, and he knew he couldn’t be too complacent. He needed to improve constantly.

Currently in Veridia, apart from magic, technology was also on the rise, a beautiful and powerful fusion of the two.

The Machina race, which were like working robots, created wonderful machines with the help of the dwarves.

Their latest invention was a machine that could create mana stones.

It worked by pressuring mana to transform into a solid state, similar to how mana veins generate mana stones.

Because of this invention, the demigods of both the Machina race and the Dwarf race earned a huge amount of merits.

A new era of travel had also dawned in Veridia. Majestic Mana-Powered Skyships, colossal airships born from the collaboration of human engineering and elven magic, now sailed through the clouds. Instead of conventional fuel, these ships were powered by mana engines, drawing energy from captured mana stones.

They were reinforced with magically enhanced dwarven steel and equipped with elf-made teleportation arrays for long-distance travel, making the prospect of interstellar journeys a tangible reality.

In response to the constant demonic threat, the mages of Veridia had developed a sophisticated network of magical defenses.

Arcane Wards, powerful, transparent energy fields, now protected the cities from external magical attacks.

At key points along these wards stood Arcane Sentinels, towering, crystalline structures that acted as a backup.

If the ward was ever breached, the sentinels could unleash a concentrated blast of pure mana, powerful enough to obliterate any demon below S-Grade.

The Machina race and dwarves also collaborated to create a new form of defense: Automated Artificer’s Golems.

These golems were not mindless automatons; they were programmed with a basic form of intelligence and patrolled the cities’ walls, ready to defend against any demonic incursion.

On the other hand, humans also began to develop modern firearms, like AKs, Macs, shotguns, and more.

There was no need for such firearms for the Body Refiners or Mages, who had their own powerful abilities.

But for ordinary people, it was a must-have item. As life forms in Veridia didn’t commit any crimes, Sunny didn’t object to the life forms having weapons for their safety, as demons could attack anytime. And these weapons could at least kill the weaker demons.
