Chapter 380 – This G.o.d Is Now A Merit Evaluator!

 The soldiers spread out and swiftly killed the surviving Sacred Beetle Descendants.

As they headed back, they closed their eyes with happy expressions, feeling the changes occurring in their bodies.

In truth, the changes were very clear.

Previously, their modern firearms had killed at least four thousand Sacred Beetle Descendants even if the benefits were lower. But then everyone went forward to kill roughly fifty more Sacred Beetle Descendants each equipped only with daggers.

With the battle concluding, every soldier had killed an average of 160-170 Sacred Beetle Descendants, and for them, the benefits were not reduced like Wei Xiao Bei's.

Admittedly, without the a.s.sistance of a status panel, every soldier should obtain around 500 evolution points!

If a normal person had 500 evolution points, what kind of effect would it have on them compared to on a strong man?

If the evolution points were converted into attributes, it would be a whole five points!

Naturally, these soldiers could not be like Wei Xiao Bei and place their evolution points into the sub-attribute that they liked. The placement would mostly depend on how they attacked, their habits, and how their bodies originally distributed their attributes.

This could be seen from looking at the changes to their bodies.

The majority of soldiers had their muscles faintly bulge in size, their movements having also become quicker. Additionally, some of them appeared to be able to see and hear better.

This was how the majority of them changed. Their evolution points were placed into their strength, agility, and vitality. A portion had their points added to their awareness.

For soldiers who were not normal people, although their attributes were higher than white-collared workers and students, they did not exceed the realm of a normal person.

Just like that, the benefits of obtaining 500 evolution points were very clear to see.

It was to the point that some of the soldiers stood on the spot with stupid looks on their faces. There was even someone who began to drum his muscles and forced a comrade to compete in arm wrestling.

“This place is not Earth, but a completely new world. A world that could allow you to continuously grow strong! If you are willing to listen to my command, then you could also become stronger.”

At this point, Wei Xiao Bei hit the iron while it was hot and began to engage with the soldiers.

There was no doubt that after obtaining such benefits, most of the soldiers had their hostile feelings toward him decrease, with more than half even looking at Wei Xiao Bei as their new leader.

This was a very human line of thinking.

Although humans liked to become stronger, many students wanted to become leaders that others would swear allegiance to.

Unfortunately, the majority of humans when entering society would be restricted by many different systems, thereby weakening their compet.i.tive spirit.

In simpler terms, if someone was willing to do something for the leader, then it was easy to influence a crowd to do that thing.

There were too many examples of this.

Now seeing the expressions of the soldiers, Wei Xiao Bei slightly relaxed.

He had used a lot of effort to do this. If the soldiers were still unwilling then everything he did would have been a waste.

Although eliminating the soldiers was an easy thing to do for him, he would be unwilling to give up at this point.

“I am willing to listen to your command!”

A soldier stood there with a wors.h.i.+pping expression.

With someone taking the lead, the rest of the soldiers also displayed their willingness.

Naturally, their levels of willingness were all different. Some treated Wei Xiao Bei as their idol, some as their commander, and there were also some who were only saying it to ensure their safety.

Afterward, the situation became simpler. Wei Xiao Bei found a smaller group of Sacred Beetle Descendants and let the soldiers kill them.

“I'm exhausted.”

An old voice suddenly rang in Wei Xiao Bei's mind.

 It's the local G.o.d Ge Da Tian!

Wei Xiao Bei's eyes shone with brilliance. He looked at the soldiers that had been immersed in battle, which had turned around and arrived at a hill.

A wave of sand rose up from the ground. In an instant, a white-haired old man appeared in front of Wei Xiao Bei.

There was something different about his appearance compared to how he looked before, as he now wore a red robe and a golden crown. In his right hand was a scroll and in his left was a brush. Compared to before, he looked much more awe-inspiring.

“It's been a while.”

Wei Xiao Bei was happy, but he was also puzzled. In the next moment, Ge Da Tian proudly let Wei Xiao Bei understand how he managed to be here.

“This old man is not some local G.o.d anymore. I truly thank you, little brother, as I have already been promoted to a day merit evaluator!”

The local G.o.d chuckled. His brows carried irrepressible happiness and pride.

“Day merit evaluator?”

Wei Xiao Bei could not help but be astounded.

The day merit evaluator was a rather extensive legend among Chinese citizens.

The position was said to be one of the four merit evaluators of the imperial court of heaven.

The four cla.s.ses of merit evaluators are the year, month, day, and hour. The people in these positions record the meritorious services of the people. They were lesser G.o.ds that managed the book of records.

In the famous Chinese Story ‘Journey to the West,' it was recorded that Sun Wukong had wreaked havoc in heaven, causing the Celestial Emperor to be furious. The Celestial Emperor had dispatched the four heavenly kings, three princes, twenty-eight constellations, twelve dragons, five revealers, four merit evaluators, and a hundred thousand celestial troops and many others to capture the monkey!

The main role of the merit evaluators was to record the events. Unfortunately, in this fierce battle, the celestial troops had been beaten into a sorry state. What merit could merit evaluators even record? Not recording any delinquency was already good enough.

Additionally, in Daoism, books in heaven were also handled by the merit evlauators.

When people die, merit evaluators transmit information to the netherworld.

In short, this position was a lot higher than that of local G.o.ds.

In the hierarchy of heaven, the lowest position was the local G.o.d and any position and place in the underworld were all equivalents to s.h.i.+ng Wong's army in position.

One step above were the merit evaluators, s.h.i.+ng Wong, and many others.

The merit evaluators were a bit lower in position compared to a county G.o.d.

However, merit evaluators had one benefit, and that was to be able to go anywhere.

In the system of heaven, even if the four Sea Dragon Kings went to different places, they would need to file a report to heaven. If they did not prepare such a report, then they would be violating the law of heaven and be beheaded.

From whatever angle you looked at it, the merit evaluators were like G.o.ds of time!

In truth, Wei Xiao Bei had an impulse to throw a [Status Appraisal] at Ge Da Tian at this moment as he wanted to see his status.

However, considering that they were in a contract, it might destroy their relations.h.i.+p if he did so.

He strongly suppressed the desire and congratulated him while asking some questions.

The amount of information that he had gained from Ge Da Tian was not much. At the very least Ge Da Tian could not tell him how he had become a merit evaluator.

However, Wei Xiao Bei knew what the benefit was.

Although Ge Da Tian had become very busy, he could create a clone of himself and place it beside Wei Xiao Bei. If something happens, then he could summon the other party at any time. Moreover, the clone had some fighting power. As for fighting strength, it would depend on the situation.

Moreover, this clone could follow him into the real world!

However, in terms of strength, Ge Da Tian admitted that he could not compare himself to when he was a local G.o.d.

After all, when he was a local G.o.d, he could borrow the power of the land, and he had lost this benefit after becoming a merit evaluator.

Unfortunately, this was something that could not be changed. Moreover, he had just become a merit evaluator and was not used to it yet, causing his strength to decline even more.

After saying this, Wei Xiao Bei remembered the Ground Suppressing Censer back in the temple and could not help but ask about it.

Ge Da Tian let out a sigh when this was mentioned.

Originally, the censer was his own exclusive item, but when he left the local G.o.d temple, it could not be brought with him. He could only leave it behind and make his troops guard it.

Hearing this, Wei Xiao Bei also could not help but sigh.

He was pained that he could not even get a share of such a treasure!

However, Ge Da Tian had rea.s.sured him, “No problem. If this G.o.d gets promoted again, then this G.o.d can lend it to you.”

Wei Xiao Bei's attention was completely taken by these words.

“How do you get promoted?”

He immediately became excited. There was no doubt that if he could borrow the censer, then the benefits he could gain were great.

At the very least, the ingredients would allow him to make rare quality and immortal quality dishes that would not be lacking.

Wei Xiao Bei now knew that if he wanted to cook immortal quality dishes, he would need rare quality ingredients. Naturally, some luck was also needed, though if he did not even have the ingredients then nothing could be done.

“To be promoted, I need to fulfill two conditions.”

Seeing that Wei Xiao Bei was interested, he could not help but smile and stick out two fingers.

It appears that the first condition for a merit evaluator to be promoted was that they would first need to build a temple. There needed to be an enshrined G.o.d inside as well as a condensation of incense, with the many incenses needing to be very exuberant. The second condition was for him to eat twenty portions of immortal quality dishes.
