God of Internet

Chapter 44: New Perception

The news that Arcantor had been attacked and that the enemy army of more than 5,000 had been decimated in such a short time spread through the kingdom like fire through a pile of dry straw.

All the citizens knew what had happened in less than 24 hours.

But the most useful thing for me was not that this information was spread by Arcantor, but that this information was also spread by Eldoria!

Rosalind had already reached some of the small baronies in Eldoria via the Internet, and their shock at discovering that their army of 5,000 warriors had been destroyed was priceless.

Unlike the commoners, who simply accepted the Internet and made the most of it, the nobles have always had a different mindset.

Raised from a young age to seek profit and get the best things for themselves, the discovery that Eldoria's army had been so easily destroyed in Arcantor came as a great shock to them, as it showed them that Arcantor was clearly superior to Eldoria, which put them on the wrong side of this war.

Sure, some barons still had doubts, but the more astute ones realized the general trend and began to think of countermeasures for what was to come.

The royal army was essentially made up of soldiers supplied to the kingdom by the nobles themselves, so the loss of those 5,000 soldiers was extremely costly to the nobles of Eldoria.

The process of changing the mindset of these nobles would be very useful to me in the future, but right now my focus was on a possible direct confrontation with the God of Fear.

Divine Wars weren't just fought between mortals.

I had spent over 500,000 Divine Power Points for my mortals to win their war; if I had to deal with a direct attack from the God of Fear, the cost would be even greater!

Considering that my opponent was the God of Fear, it might be easier to deal with him than if he were a more destructive god like the God of Thunder.

Zack would definitely come to my kingdom and send thunderstorms to destroy as many of Arcantor's cities as quickly as possible.

The God of Fear, on the other hand, might act differently.

Since his deity doesn't have any direct offensive measures, his use of Fear might be to scare my citizens so badly that they start destroying themselves.

My question is... how do I deal with this?

| Name: Adrian Innovashine

| Titles: God of Creativity, God of the Internet

| Level: Embryonic deity rank 6

| Number of believers: 398,132 -> 418,613

| Average usage time per user: 4 hours

|------------------------

| Divine Power: 676,929 / 320,000 -> 1,137,404 / 320,000 (+837,226 -376,751)

=========================

My Divine Power had already surpassed the one million mark again, which was an extremely high number, but the problem was that it cost 10 times more to use my Divine Power compared to the other gods.

Stolen story; please report.

The advantage was that I was already at rank 6, which I believe is at least one rank higher than the God of Fear can be.

But that was still a very small advantage...

If I could climb to at least rank 7, I would have a 10% higher Divine Power usage efficiency than him, so my Divine Power usage would only be 9 times higher than his.

So with 900k Divine Power points, mine would be equal to 100k of his.

Since the Internet gave me much more Divine Power every day than the other gods got from the ordinary prayers they forced believers to say 4 times a month, my rank advantage would only increase.

My initial advantage over the other gods wasn't very large, as they used fear to conquer the entire realm immediately, receiving hundreds of thousands of Divine Power points in no time.

I, on the other hand, had to gradually win over my followers to make up for our advantage.

However, now that the price of ascension was getting higher and higher, the other gods would need weeks of prayers to ascend once, or even months, while I could ascend several times in a week.

My only problem was the reserve I needed to protect myself...

Considering that the God of Fear's attack had just failed, the likelihood of him attacking me again in such a short time was very low.

Therefore, I decided to take a few more risks.

When I returned my consciousness to the divine world, I was prepared to expend a lot of divine power this time.

When I felt this large amount of Divine Power in my body, I began to control it so that all the Divine Power would be absorbed by me.

With each unit of Divine Power that I absorbed, I could feel my body getting a little stronger, until finally, when the last of the 320k points of Divine Power was absorbed, I could feel my power increasing.

=========================

Feeling my power and the changes that reaching rank 7 has brought to me, a huge smile appeared on my face.

Just by going from one small rank to the next, my control over Divine Power had become even greater, giving me a lot of ideas on how to use it even better to make the Internet even better.

But I wasn't going to stop there.

Taking advantage of the fact that the God of Fear had attacked me so recently, I decided to go for another rank!

| Name: Adrian Innovashine

| Titles: God of Creativity, God of the Internet

| Level: Embryonic Deity Rank 7 -> Rank 8

| Number of believers: 418,613

| Average usage per user: 4 hours

|------------------------

| Divine Power: 817,404 / 640,000 -> 177,404 / 1,280,000 (-640,000)

=========================

When I reached the 8th level, the smile on my face became even bigger, and the information about my divinity appeared more naturally in my mind.

I realized a very important part that I had overlooked.

Even though creativity was one of the worst battle-oriented blessings, since the cost of it for direct attacks was much higher than any of my opponents, I could still use it in a better way.

Just as I got a discount on the cost of Divine Power for the development and use of the iMonsters because it involved an important part of my divinity, I could use it even more intensely for the development of Arcantor!

Magic was a process in which the user had to use mana to shape it in the way he imagined, to turn it into a spell, whether it was an offensive spell or a useful spell.

To imagine this, creativity was the most important part.

The lack of imagination and creativity of the people in this world was a very important factor that limited them, but it was a point I could easily deal with!

Wizards had trouble creating new spells? I could give them the creativity they needed!

Blacksmiths couldn't think of new ways to make armor and equipment? Creativity could do the trick!

Of course, it was obvious that these changes wouldn't happen overnight.

The time for the School Battle was very short, only 60 days, and gods like me were at a huge disadvantage, which was one of the main reasons why everyone underestimated me so much in this test.

So I wouldn't be able to make the best use of it, but that wouldn't stop me from using it to think of the best ways to counterattack, or using some of my Divine Power as an investment in the brightest minds in Arcantor.

While I spent 50,000 Divine Power points on a Blessing to improve Robert's teaching efficiency, using my own Divinity, I would only spend 5,000 for such a powerful Blessing, and if I used these Blessings on important people, such as an Archmage, a Master Craftsman, and other such important professions, the result would be much greater!

The problem of my direct attack still existed, but with my creativity sharpened, gathering Divine Power Points to develop a blessing so that my followers wouldn't be afraid, even if the cost was very high, just to postpone this battle while I run Eldoria from within proved to be an increasingly better tactic.

Let's see who can handle a longer battle better, God of Fear...
