Greed: All For What? - Chapter 1771: Benefits Of An Altar.

They interacted with the altar and it brought up a list of prompts for them to peruse.

ALTAR (Tier 1)

Capacity: 1000/1000

Resurrection Speed: 24 hours.

-Upgrade Altar

-Acquire Divine Spells.

-Upgrade Divine Spells.

-Quests Catalog.

-Forge Weapons.

-Trade Wealth.

-Create and Convert Materials.

-Bestow Blessings.

-Evolve Godhood.

The altar has taken the place of the divine investiture in storing their prayers. Unfortunately, it has a limited capacity. The extra prayers they have been saving went to waste because the altar couldn’t contain them all. They have to increase its capacity with divine crystals or it will repeat itself.

They went through the other prompts of the altar. The first one was the prompt to acquire more divine spells. They selected it and it brought out a list to them. It was the same list they got from the divine investiture. They have already purchased them so they were not interested in them.

They tried upgrading the divine spells, but it said they needed to be True gods to do so. But the cost of upgrading looked expensive to them.

“100 divinity to upgrade? Didn’t we get them for like 5 divinity? This is extortion!”

“Looks like we will need to hunt again.”

That conjecture was confirmed when they saw the rest of the things that their altar can do for them. Upgrading and forging divine weapons also require divinity.

The option to trade using their altar makes it so that they don’t need to fight to gain divinity. They can trade with other gods who have their own altars. The trade option gives them access to a virtual market place where they can buy things and sell.

The currency they need can be acquired with the create and convert materials options of the altar. Normally, divinity cannot be exchanged directly between gods apart from divine orbs. But divine orbs can now be converted into divinity gold and used as currency.

What’s more, Divinity itself can be created using the create and convert function of the altar. They can convert prayers into divinity as long as they have divine crystals.

Divinity gold is not the only thing they can use as currency. They can also use soul gold or divine gold. But divine gold is the least valuable currency. It is mostly used in forging.

They brought up the prompt to see what their altar was fully capable of.

-Create and Convert Materials.

1: Divinity.

Raw Material: 100 Prayers + 1 Divine Crystal.

2: Divine Gold.

Raw Material: 1 Divine Crystal + 1 Mortal Gold coin.

3: Divinity Gold.

Raw Material: 1 Divine Gold + 1 Divinity.

4: Soul Gold.

Raw Material: 1 Divinity Gold + 1 Mortal Soul.

The main raw materials that they need are souls, divine crystals, gold coins, and prayers. With those three, their altar will be able to create any currency they need. Plus the currency can also be reverted back to their constitutents components without any loss.

So with the altar, gods don’t need to fight anymore to grow stronger. They can trade with other gods to get the materials they need or they can have their mortals get them some materials. Then they can combine these materials into whatever they need.

Legion-5 said in appreciation, “This is not bad. But nothing beats hunting and being in the recieving end of the generousity of others.”

They chuckled to themselves at that. Then they checked out the rest of the prompts. They noticed that every quests they have is currently under the quest option. They can acquire more information about the quests there and track their progress.

What stood out to them next was the bestow option. With it, they can send things to their believers in the mortal realm. It has always been their believers sacrificing things to them, but now they can reciprocate.

They asked their angel, “What would mortals need from us?”

The angel replied, “Weapons, divine crystals, and divinity.”

“Mortals can also use divine weapons.”

The angel became excited as it replied, “Only your Oracles and priests can use divine weapons. Even then, it will only be low ranked divine weapons. But at least it will be better than the trash weapons that they can forge.”

Legion-1 nodded and said, “That’s true. What about the other two things?”

“Divine crystals can increase their stats. With it you can use it to create a champion as soon as possible. It is not a shortcut for evolution. As it can only increase their raw stats. They still need to evolve through mana. As for divinity, only when mortals have evolved to demigods can they use it.”

“So mortals can become gods here too?”

It nodded and said, “Yes. But it will not be easy.”

Legion-7 muttered, “This world is turning out to be just like any other world. It truly doesn’t appear to be made for just Origin gods.”

The clones digested that information before they moved on to the evolve option. There was only one option there, so they clicked on it.

-Evolve to True God.

Requirements: Level: 100 Godling and 1,000 Authority.

Their eyes widened when they saw this. Currently they all have level 100 and 1249 Authority after acquiring three orc tribes.

Legion-1 said in disbelief, “I thought the requirements would be difficult because no one has become a true god yet.”

Their angel provided an explanation, “Many of the godlings before you were quick to create their altars because they prioritized the acquisition of divinity or divine crystals. They

neglected their believers, so they are making up for it now.”

“Some of them even sacrificed their believers to acquire the souls needed to create the altar. That made their believers afraid and reduced their faith instead. Now they need to acquire Divinity and Authority very quickly in order to become true gods.”

Legion-3 said with some excitement, “But we are different. We worked towards acquiring

divinity, divine crystals, and believers. So we are not lacking in any aspect. In fact, it seems we are doing very well in terms of Authority. It turned out that being jack of all trades can actually make one become a master of one.”
