Chapter 156: Chapter 130: The Wrath of the Gods

"Xiangnai sister, are you here to help us?"

Lin Ke asked in a childish voice, turning a blind eye to the jade hand on his face.

He was used to it.

At least Xiangnai knew how much pressure to apply, compared to Fulon’s grip, it was nothing.

"Help you? Sort of."

Speaking of serious matters, Xiangnai’s gaze turned cold as she walked past Lin Ke to the edge of the city wall, looking towards the distant Lava Swamp.

Lin Ke followed curiously, and others began to focus their attention as well.

"The people of the Black and White Kingdom are lambs tended by the gods, and those disgusting Magical Beasts, akin to mermen, dare to butcher the lambs of the gods!"

As she said this, a thick emanation of professional power began to boil from Xiangnai’s body, forcing Lin Ke and the others to retreat several steps.

Only to see Xiangnai flip her hand and take out a somewhat mottled copper coin from the Space Ring, beginning to chant:

"You hold the secret of wealth..."

"You are the mother of gold coins..."

"Gold coins are life... gold coins are everything..."

"Without gold coins, there is no sense of security..."

"Without gold coins, there is no freedom!"

"Gold coins are everything!"

"...Divine descent!"

Profession [Priest] Skill—Divine Descent Magic!

Massive power poured out from Xiangnai’s body, gathering upon the copper coin.

The mottled copper coin spun rapidly in the air, growing larger with the influx of power.

The color gradually shifted from brass to silver, with traces of gold faintly appearing.

But Xiangnai stopped, looking pale, before taking a golden bottle from the Space Ring, drinking the Magic Potion, and her complexion restored somewhat.

Meanwhile, the copper coin in the sky gradually stopped spinning, melting like a liquid, a mass of silver liquid there transforming into a human shape.

Soon, Lin Ke felt an immensely powerful will descend here, with a small part merging into it while the majority dissipated on the spot.

And the silver pulp from the silver copper coin gathered into the form of a woman...

No, a girl!

The girl was entirely silver, curvy, but her expression was exceedingly indifferent.

"Useless! I told you to lend more money to others, but you wouldn’t listen!"

The girl had just formed and immediately scolded in the direction of Xiangnai, glancing nonchalantly at Lin Ke, ignoring the others completely.

"My Lord, I am willing to offer you all my wealth."

Xiangnai’s face turned pale, kneeling halfway down, looking humble and fearful.

"Hmph."

The Loli, representing the Goddess of Wealth in the sky, said nothing more, just snorted coldly, then looked towards the swamp, saying, "Take out all the items."

"Yes, my Lord." Xiangnai nodded, body still kneeling, but took out several things from the Space Ring.

A pink feather pen, an old pocket watch, a wooden cane, and a fiery red chalice.

The four items floated around the embodiment of the Goddess of Wealth once Xiangnai took them out.

The Goddess of Wealth slightly raised her hand, a visible golden Divine Power flowed from her body, pooling onto the surrounding four holy objects.

The four holy objects emitted a faint light, each outlining a human body.

A middle-aged man, an elderly man, a plump woman, and a young boy.

Added with the Goddess of Wealth herself, these five godly embodiments nodded at each other before turning into streaks of light, rushing towards the forest.

As they left, an atmosphere of extreme anger departed alongside them.

The air quivered, and the winds roared.

These gods were angry!

...

"Xiangnai sister, who are these gods?"

As the gods left, Lin Ke couldn’t help but inquire, seeing Xiangnai stand up slowly.

"My Lord, the Goddess of Wealth, along with the Harvest Elder, the God of Love and Joy, The Beginning of Hope, and Mr. Noble, these are the four Neutral Gods."

Xiangnai explained calmly, showing no signs of having been scolded by the Goddess of Wealth just moments earlier: "They came representing the Naseng’s Human Race gods."

The Harvest Elder, God of Love and Joy, The Beginning of Hope, Mr. Noble...

Lin Ke pondered the names of these Neutral Gods, considering their Divine Power and the nature of their rules.

And they came to represent the Human Race gods?

Why not represent the legends instead?

However, Xiangnai didn’t let him ponder over it much, instead, she casually asked Lin Ke: "By the way, I heard that you owe a debt to the Deep Blue Duke..."

Lin Ke shivered instantly, feeling his wallet under scrutiny, and laughed dryly: "How does Xiangnai sister know? But I am almost collecting enough, yes, almost..."

Good heavens, wants me to take a loan? Dream on!

Xiangnai’s slight squirm, Lin Ke understood whether she wanted to pull a prank or jest.

Lin Ke knew this kind of banker nature all too well.

"Oh, if you need money, remember to borrow from sister... By the way, do you want a Divine Artifact? I noticed Master Ove doesn’t have a decent weapon yet, or do you want a set of armor and weapons? Or perhaps combinations for some powerful professions are available as well..."

Xiangnai spoke with a calm face, though her attention was fully on Lin Ke at this time, hoping he would show even a little desire for these items.

But Lin Ke maintained his cute demeanor, with a childish voice: "Sister, what do I need those things for? Are these your birthday gifts to me?"

Sly little devil!

Xiangnai cursed inwardly, but outwardly she responded gently: "No, if you want those items, you must buy them with money, and if you lack money, I could lend you some."

She wasn’t clueless, having inquired along the way, it was clear this Count Linke was particularly, particularly smart.

Feigning as a child now, fooling whom? What a joke.

"Oh, no need then."

Lin Ke nodded casually: "I don’t fancy those things, though I do like a Divine Spark, do you have one?"

Divine Spark!

To speak of buying and selling a Divine Spark with a follower of a deity is like asking a follower how much their deity’s brain is worth.

Asking an otaku about breaking a LSP site, asking a banker about establishing red overpowering capital.

In other planes, other worlds, this is practically blasphemy in person!

Of course, according to Lin Ke’s speculation...

"Divine Spark? Possible... My permissions might not be enough, but if your risk level assessment passes and you secure the funds... worst case, the goddess could help you hunt for one!"

Xiangnai gritted her teeth in thought: "But right now, although you’re a Count with endless potential, you are still young, and the risk level is too high... maybe Divine Sparks from lower planes could do for you? Also, due to the high risk level, even if you pass, you might incur a very high interest rate."

People around were stunned, Lin Ke raised an eyebrow, about to say something, when Xiangnai raised her hand to halt his words, saying:

"No more! I’ll use my authority, and I should be able to lower it by three points! This really is the limit, you’ve seen it, I have to lower it by so much only because of the goddess’s requirements, sister I... no, little sister begs you."

Xiangnai arched her broad chest, biting her vivid lips.

"Gulp..."

A few peeping guards around swallowed hard.

This time, even Lin Ke was dumbfounded.

Sister... no, grandma, I’m only six!

But who knew Xiangnai wouldn’t give up, she squatted down, pressing her papaya-sized assets into watermelons, then looked at Lin Ke:

"There’s also this, the temple recently received a batch of goods, if you don’t buy now, it’ll be gone! How about this, I’ll give you another discount point, but don’t tell my goddess, just treat it as a gift from me, it’s our temple’s insider price..."

Lin Ke: (ㅍ_ㅍ)

Listening to Xiangnai’s relentless chatter, Lin Ke couldn’t help but finally probe, "Odd change does not change?"

Xiangnai: ?
