Chapter 1037: Chapter 481: 13 Sky Cities_3

Therefore, once he reached level thirty and became a god, his leveling speed wouldn’t stagnate but would instead burst forward with the unlocking of the experience pool!

This was also why the number of believers was so crucial for deities.

After the ten-star mark, the demands for both experience and divinity would become astronomical, especially for divinity. Crafting Divine Artifacts, creating Divine Arts, continuing to increase the star level, and so on—all required a vast amount of divinity.

And a god without believers would have empty experience and divinity pools, only able to collect at a painstakingly slow rate on their own. It could take thousands, even tens of thousands of years to ascend just one star—how could their growth speed possibly compare to those gods with believers everywhere?

To develop believers, one must first craft Statues of Gods.

Like Lin Xue’s Grim Reaper, although she acquired Divine Skin and a Divine Artifact early on, she couldn’t even begin to talk about believers since she had no statue, hadn’t unlocked the Divine Arts system, and could not claim the daily divine duty rewards. If she had Divine Arts a few days ago, she would have had an easier time dealing with that Titan.

As for where the Statue of the Grim Reaper was, Mu You wasn’t too sure himself.

Mu You was now troubled by the fact that when he took Dawn City to the sky a month later, he would also bring the god statue with him, and thereafter, the growth of Dawn City’s believers would stagnate.

There was no way around this, the only solution was to craft another statue to develop additional believers on Earth.

Thinking this, Mu You took down the oil lamp and rubbed its surface with his palm—the ritual to summon the Lamp God.

The Bard’s ghostly figure quickly emerged from the Divine Lamp, yawning and looking at Mu You with a tired expression, "What’s up?"

"Do you know how to craft a statue?" Mu You asked.

The Star Spirit World was a world specially created by gods to spread their faith, and creating god statues was of utmost importance to that end. If you could make one, theoretically, you should be able to make a second or third. Otherwise, for those widely popular gods with billions of believers, how could just one statue suffice?

"Statues of Gods, huh... For that, you’d have to go to the Fairy Clan," the Bard replied upon hearing this.

"The Fairy Clan? You mean... the Fairy Lady?" Mu You was taken aback.

"Yes, although statues aren’t destroyed by the Great Cataclysm, throughout the process of epoch transition, many statues tend to get damaged or lost due to lack of care. The initial intent of creating the Fairy Race was to serve as Craftsmen dedicated to sculpting and repairing Statues of Gods for all sorts of deities.

Of course, to prevent gods from expanding uncontrollably, there are restrictions to crafting statues as well: for each epoch, they will craft the first statue for free for each god, but starting from the second one, a price must be paid. The more you make, the higher the price," the Bard explained.

"So that’s how it is..."

Mu You was pleased to hear this—creating god statues was possible, and the first one was even free of charge!

In that case, Lin Xue could go to the Fairy Race right away to carve a Statue of the Grim Reaper, then recruit a batch of believers among the players to establish her own faith!

"The Fairy Race, eh..."

Thinking of the Fairy Lady, Mu You immediately took out the Elf Horn in the game.

He had been fusing Divine Bone in the Star Spirit World these days, and the horn had been refreshed long ago. Mu You blew the horn straight away, and after a few simple refreshes, the Fairy Lady appeared.

[The Fairy Lady, Oraea the Blessed One, appears before you, glances at you but shakes her head, indicating she has no tasks to assign you this week.]

"No tasks?"

Mu You was startled but then remembered the Fairy Lady seemed to have been busy lately in the Tower of Heroes, helping players clear levels, so it was normal for her to be too preoccupied to attend to him.

Fortunately, he wasn’t there for a task this time.

[Seeing the Fairy Lady about to disappear, you hurriedly call out to her. The Fairy Lady turns around, puzzled.]

[You inquire about the cost required to craft a god statue.]

[Taking in your question, the Fairy Lady looks surprised, gives you a glance but regretfully shakes her head, "Unfortunately, we’re unable to craft statues of gods anymore."]

["Why?" you ask.]

["Because the tools for crafting statues are all located in my homeland, the ’Bitter Garden’, but my homeland and many of my kin didn’t appear in this epoch, resulting in an exceedingly low number of Fairy Clan members in the Star Spirit World, scattered across the world. Just by myself, I simply can’t craft statues," the Fairy Lady says apologetically, before her eyes shift to an expectant gaze.]

["However, if you can help us find the whereabouts of our homeland and my kin, I am willing to craft a new statue for the God of Order free of charge!"]

Along with those words, a quest prompt suddenly popped up.

[Congratulations, you have triggered the special quest: Finding the Lost Bitter Garden.]

[Quest Description: Help the Fairy Lady find the legendary ’Lost Sky City’, Bitter Garden, and bring it back to the Star Spirit World.]

[Quest Reward: One statue of the God of Order.]

"Lost... Sky City?"

Mu You looked at the quest text in surprise, but the first thing he noted was the phrase ’Sky City’.

The homeland of the fairies was also a Sky City?
