Chapter 6: Recognizing Suffering as the Cornerstone of Revolution

The goddess pounded her chest, and that area was quite substantial

Your changes are quite significant

Standard Divine Arts: Healing / Blessing / Divine Light / Detect Evil

Condition 2: Construct a temple

Li Qi winced in pain while quickly activating his mind

Terrence sat on the ground in shock.

Condition 1: Absorb 100 shallow believers and 10 devout believers

Her palm emitted a faint white light, gradually seeping into Li Qi's body like a firefly

The goddess is indeed eager, but establishing the church is also necessary

Terrence was very excited: "Yes! Phineas's divinity has awakened! The deities have favored her, she truly is the Saintess! I told you so!"

The goddess asks and answers herself: "Is it the spirit of resistance that defies the myriad gods and demons? Is it the endless joy of fighting against both man and heaven, the belief in struggle?"

Li Qi rubbed Fei Ni's head and said, "You are now a saint, everything the priest knows, you know as well, and what the priest does not know, you know too"

As I was organizing my thoughts, I felt a coolness followed by warmth around my waist, accompanied by a tingling sensation, and the pain gradually dissipated

What on earth is going on

Lady Scarlet is a revolutionary goddess who has crossed the border illegally, and her saint remains a goddess. It is only because her "guardian" has obtained legal residency that they too have "registered" and become saints.

The pastor is his primary profession, while the pope is his position within the church; however, this part of the information remains unclear, indicating that the goddess has not yet resolved this matter.

Li Qile cheerfully went downstairs, and the screen before him finally displayed substantial content

Your Excellency the Viscount, what is going on!

I did not receive pure divinity, but rather a ready-made priesthood: suffering

All glory belongs to my Lord, uh, the designer. Li Qiming wisely refrained from contradicting the first half of the goddess's statement, while simultaneously pretending not to hear the latter half.

Identity: Viscount Prelle of the Kingdom of Hadron

Although the goddess scolded, she seemed to be persuaded

In the world of Faen, the extraordinary powers possessed by mortals are generally divided into two parts. One part is standardized power, while the other part consists of exclusive powers granted by different deities

It is time to establish the revolutionary base!

Gender: Male (editable)

As the leader of the random rebels in the P Society's four萌, Li Qi believes that using a term to replace "rebellion" is more appropriate. After all, names like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang seem too out of place here

I am the God of Revolution! I have come to overthrow the old order of the entire world! What is the cornerstone of revolution?

Li Qi said with a smile: "Is it possible to work part-time"

Li Qi innocently said: "You see, that's how it is, I awakened her divinity"

Li Qi unexpectedly discovered that he could now slightly gaze at the goddess below. Although her face remained as scorching as a solar corona, other aspects were no longer so blurred.

The first step is to get her a household registration...

Compared to the mindset when accepting the first task, Li Qi is much more composed now; after three months, he is taking it slowly

Divine Art: Divine Vision / Divine Punishment / Divine Oracle / Divine Descent

The sound of turning pages fleetingly vanished, and the goddess quickly traced the origin of this meme: "Alright, that's about it."

Then he wilted again, releasing Li Qi, murmuring in frustration, confusion, and pain: "But, but I feel, I cannot feel the presence of His Majesty Anma..."

Fini blinked her eyes, her small face showing clear disappointment: "Master... Li Qi, don't you want me to be your maid anymore?"

Upon further reflection, it seems that the goddess is not blaming him, but genuinely does not understand. Since she understands a part that Li Qi does not, what is lacking is the part that Li Qi understands, even though Li Qi understands nothing at all

The goddess, filled with indignation, seemed to have just taken the first step on the path of revolution, only to be struck by a vehicle

She asked again, "Do you know what the first clergy I am preparing to condense is?"

Li Qi's heart skipped a beat; he still owed a large sum of money, and if he couldn't repay it in three months, he would have to become a slave

She was still furious: "But why is it like this?"

Li Qi thought for a moment and recited two lines from a book

However ... ...

Li Qi recalled the kind of pain that made his body and mind tremble, and said earnestly: "As long as there is the right guidance, pain will inevitably lead one to recognize reality; isn't this the cornerstone of revolution?"

She shed tears, and the wings of light and the crown dissipated, revealing a charming little face, delicate and moving, evoking pity in all who see her

Goddess, have you conducted revolutionary experiments in the world of immortal heroes?

Occupation: Priest / Pope

Age: 17

Failure penalty: substitution (this time substituting Saint Preler)

There is additional information related to extraordinary powers below, equivalent to a professional panel

This is his basic information. The goddess has already registered her household in the realm of Fehn, and as a result, he has transitioned from being an apprentice knight, who could not originally awaken extraordinary powers, to a cleric.

The goddess is still somewhat puzzled: "Isn't the first sentence ... ... rise, the people who are unwilling to be slaves?"

Just as I was about to closely examine the description of this divine technique, a light screen suddenly expanded before my eyes

This ... ...

Well... since the matter has been exposed, I must also speak the truth

The most devout saint possesses powers akin to those of the Pope, capable of issuing oracles, enduring divine manifestations, and maintaining a very close relationship with the deities

"The correct guidance," the goddess murmured, "is it referring to me? That makes sense.

In three months, repay a debt equivalent to fifty years of net income from the territory, and also build a temple and develop a group of followers

There is also a problem here

Feini leaped into Li Qi's arms: "The master is a good person! He is... the spokesperson of the goddess, I can feel it!"

Time limit: 90 days

Li Qi had a bit of a clue: "Linden Wan?"

Grandfather

Li Qi was secretly mocking, thinking that this question was quite easy to handle: "What if people do not realize they are slaves, nor do they know that they are actually asleep, lying down, or kneeling?"

Li Qi is more concerned about extraordinary power; as for the revolution, that can be set aside for now. This is related to whether he can enjoy a good life in Fei En.

Li Qi believes that this "thorny heart" has great depth and significance

Li Qi was bewildered, as the goddess hurriedly arrived, thinking that she was about to give a grand commendation

Condition 3: Complete the first doctrine of the sacred text

Cleric Level: 1

Thank you for your imagination, Li Qi secretly wiped his sweat

Saints are high-ranking clergy members found in most churches, typically represented by youthful and beautiful maidens. They serve as the image representatives of deities and the church, responsible for spreading divine grace and promoting doctrine

Each project has its own description, which Li Qi briefly skimmed through

Name: Li Qi · Pruel

In the hall, the old man Talens ignored Li Qi's grimaces of pain, grabbing him and pointing towards the bright light source in the hall

Why are you crying again

Recalling the goddess's explanation to Phineas, Li Qi said: "From now on, just call me Li Qi. You are the Saintess, and I am the Pope; our relationship is equal."

The treatment technique, forgetting oneself will also ... ...

He innocently said: "It's a good thing, although I don't understand why the process is like this, isn't the result quite good?"

Pope

The goddess and he spoke in unison: "Exert subjective initiative to transform the objective world"

Upon hearing these words, the goddess unexpectedly exclaimed "Oh." She circled around Li Qi, her gaze penetrating like an X-ray, making Li Qi feel as though even his appendix was being seen through by her

Papal Rank: Constant

Task: Establish a church, current progress 0 / 3

With a slip of his foot, Li Qi fell down the spiral stone staircase, rolling from the rooftop to the ground below

Reward 2: Officially granted the title of Pope

Reward 1: 100 points of divine grace (Just a little more to finish the previous ones, no need to rush)

What did you do to her

That is ... ...

Under my careful guidance, your level of revolutionary theory has significantly improved," the goddess said with a tone of satisfaction. "Well, we can consider this the first step; we have finally registered for divine status in Fei'en.

Li Qixin asked how you absorb divinity and consolidate your divine office in the heavens, how would I know that

For example, priests, regardless of the deity they worship, will possess divine spells such as healing, blessing, and detecting evil. However, the manifestation of their abilities may vary according to their level and the alignment of their deity

At the top of the castle, the goddess in red descended, hands on her hips, appearing as if she were here to demand an explanation.

Cough syrup is used for treating illnesses, yet many people abuse it as a drug. Drug dealers have included it in their sales lists and have added numerous ingredients to disguise it.

More importantly, Talens was once a high-ranking priest and is undoubtedly an expert in church construction. We must persuade him to stay and join the revolutionary cause.

... ...

Faith: The Scarlet Lady

Wait a moment, regarding the cornerstone of the revolution, Li Qi still understands something about this issue

In addition to standard divine spells, priests of different deities possess various exclusive powers. The goddess is registered in Faerûn as the Lady in Red, having absorbed the domain of "Suffering" from Shar, which has given rise to the exclusive divine spell "Thorns of the Mind".

Fini's small hand rubbed his waist: "Does it hurt here, sir? Huh, what's that light?"

In terms of external appearance, the saintess is almost a sanitized version of the witch. However, in essence, the witch is a goddess who remains in the mortal realm, while the saintess is merely a propaganda tool nurtured by the church

This is essentially extracting oil from him by soaking him in holy water of great intensity

Exclusive Divine Art: Thorn of the Mind

Terrence's grip on Richie's arm was so strong that he worried his arm bone might be crushed

Do you have obsessive-compulsive disorder? Do you have to follow the order of the lyrics?

I believe that this is also quite good. Compared to Lindenwan... no, the spirit of resistance and the recognition of one's own suffering should be more important, right? To regard the spirit of resistance as the cornerstone of revolution is merely to rebel for the sake of rebellion. Shouldn't it be more profound and sustainable to clearly understand the root of suffering and comprehend why one rebels?

Fini will definitely not let him go, as Fini shares a deep bond with Terrence. He cannot resort to violence or other means to coerce him into staying.

Respect objective facts, adhere to objective laws, and based on a profound understanding of the objective world...

Her arrogance has diminished somewhat, but she remains unconvinced: "The reasoning is sound, yet this divine office is not a penetrating insight into reality, but rather pure suffering. Many deities in the realm of Faen possess such divine offices, and they have all been used for abuse, intimidation, and self-harm. How can this be considered the cornerstone of a revolution?"

Li Qi sighed as Fei Ni, dressed in clean clothes, stood out against the backdrop of soft white wings and a crown of thorns, embodying a goddess representing light, justice, kindness, and beauty

This is not a college debate competition

Wait, three months

Then she finally revealed her true feelings: "As a designer of the revolution, if I cannot customize the divine office, am I not being led by the nose by the heavenly principles of this world... No, by the divine path?"
