Chapter 412: Chapter 30 Are You Fooling an Idiot?

With the publicity from the first summoning ritual, this time more people came to Teacup Castle, and among them were quite a few new faces, all locals who had heard the news and rushed over to witness the miracle of the Double Rest Sect.

Niu Xiangui looked at the dense crowd and felt very pleased.

Indeed, he shouldn’t be the only one being watched.

Li Yu was also very satisfied with the turnout, as the recent series of events had caused some unrest in the West, and people’s need for faith had also increased day by day.

The Silver Moon Church, which originally held a dominant position, had suffered a severe blow, and so other smaller churches began to stir restlessly.

Whether it was farmers working diligently on their land, merchants leading caravans everywhere, or mercenaries living on commissions, all longed to find the protection of the True God.

The Double Rest Sect had once defeated a giant dragon and had now thwarted the Blood Moon Association’s assassination against Ireya, once again demonstrating their formidable power and thus attracting even more attention in this battle for market share.

Even though the Sabbath members of the Double Rest Sect couldn’t yet leave Green Field, it didn’t deter those hopeful people from rushing here from all directions.

Li Yu even saw Dwarfs and Gnomes among them, as well as a few Half-Elves.

Since the doctrine of the Double Rest Sect was not based on a single race like Judaism but called for all people regardless of gender, age, or race to unite and establish a Land God Kingdom, it held considerable appeal for minorities outside the main races of the Red Lion Empire.

Naturally, Li Yu would not turn away these potential followers who came knocking at his door, even if internal racial conflicts within the Double Rest Sect might arise later. As a great person once said in "On Contradiction," contradictions are universal in the universe.

People can never eliminate contradictions.

The key is to focus on the main contradiction, as its existence and development affect the existence and development of other contradictions.

As long as the Dual Cultivation Sect could maintain a certain rate of development, bringing everyone both spiritual and material satisfaction, then other kinds of friction were not to be feared.

With the experience from the first time, Li Yu hosted the summoning ritual again and handled it even more adeptly.

After a long preamble, Li Yu took out the "Rebirth Bell," shook it seven times, and at the same time quietly called out Lu Weijia’s name three times.

The "Rebirth Bell" swayed on its own without wind, in Li Yu’s hands.

And on the stone platform, the corpse of a young boy also began to change.

At this time, Niu Xiangui followed closely behind Li Yu, stretching his neck and looking forward, both nervous and expectant.

He had already been in Green Field for two months, and had dealt with many people here. Generally speaking, the local customs were quite unsophisticated, lacking the deceit and scheming of modern society.

Especially those lizard people, their warmth was almost unreasonable, greeting him each time as if he had entered a pyramid scheme.

But just as he was a stranger to the natives on the Bratis Continent, these people were also ultimately strangers to Niu Xiangui, even though he now possessed the body of a Half-Beast, indistinguishable from the natives of this continent.

Yet inside this body, a soul originally from Earth still resided.

In this realm, the only person who could be considered as his fellow countryman was probably Li Yu, but towards Li Yu, Niu Xiangui felt more respect, gratitude, and also a bit of reverence.

Compared to the Bratis natives who generally embraced God, Niu Xiangui, a modern man educated under materialism, probably believed in the existence of Sabbath even more firmly.

Because the more he understood about science, the more Niu Xiangui was convinced that the events happening to him were the result of intervention by forces beyond science.

If there weren’t a real God behind the scenes, how could he have transmigrated from Earth to this magical plane? And as the spokesperson for Saturday, Li Yu had once performed miracles in front of Niu Xiangui.

Niu Xiangui wasn’t even sure whether Li Yu was human or a being closer to God, or perhaps some kind of alien life form that he couldn’t understand.

Although Li Yu spoke the same language as him, Niu Xiangui still felt a subtle distance and longed for a true peer.

And now this peer had just opened his eyes on the stone platform, not to mention it was a friend Niu Xiangui had known in his previous life.

The same exclamation of "Holy shit" even brought tears to Niu Xiangui’s eyes and filled him with warmth.

They say there are four great joys in life: drought relief by timely rain, encountering old friends in a foreign land, spending the wedding night under the glow of candles, and seeing one’s name on the gold list.

What Niu Xiangui was experiencing right now was the second joy.

After opening his eyes, Lu Weijia saw a strange new world, crowded with unfamiliar faces, still uttering "Holy shit."

Meanwhile, Niu Xiangui, the newbie guide, had already started his work, taking over from Li Yu to stabilize Lu Weijia’s emotions.

"Stop shouting, Xiao Lu," Niu Xiangui tried to calm his voice, "Don’t worry, you’re safe here."

However, this was utterly useless. Lu Weijia turned his head and saw a muscular brute with a fierce face and strange small ears approaching him.

Thinking to himself, I’m not stupid, trust you, hell no.

Lu Weijia sprang up with a carp flip from the stone platform, preparing to flee for his life.

Although he hadn’t figured out the situation yet, running away was never wrong.

However, he had just taken a step when everything before him blurred, and he found his shoulder gripped by the brute, who then flashed a sinister smile, "Not bad, not bad, it seems you’ve recovered well, Xiao Lu."

Lu Weijia felt a twitch in his calves, thinking, what the hell, aren’t you going to eat me?

It was then that Niu Xiangui noticed the fearful look on his friend’s face and smacked his head, "Look at my memory, I haven’t even introduced myself yet, I’ve changed bodies so you probably don’t recognize me. It’s me, Xiao Lu, your Big Brother Niu."

"......"

Lu Weijia was still trembling, and it took him a while to squeeze out a few words through his teeth, "You’ve got the wrong person, buddy. I’m not Sun Wukong."

"Hahahahaha."

Even though Lu Weijia had made a stale joke, Niu Xiangui thoroughly enjoyed the joke that only they could understand, after laughing he explained, "No, no, no, I’m not the Bull Demon King, I’m Niu Xiangui, the full-stack engineer Niu Xiangui."

"Holy shit!" Lu Weijia was shocked yet skeptical, "Your appearance... it’s way too different from Big Brother Niu."

"It’s because I’ve changed bodies here, and so have you," said Niu Xiangui as he handed Lu Weijia a small mirror.

Upon looking in the mirror, Lu Weijia was stunned once more.

Because the person in the mirror was just as unfamiliar to him.

"Soul transference is like this," Niu Xiangui spoke with the attitude of someone who had been through it all, patting Lu Weijia on the shoulder, "First listen to the words of Prophet Merlin, get the ceremony done, we can talk in detail later, and you can ask me anything you’re unsure about."
