The Church of Light's reaction is quite subtle~

After carefully listening to the intelligence shared by Lin Chen and Chen Xiao Diao, the bishop frowned, as if recalling something urgent.

But before leaving, he very politely handed two cards to Lin Chen and Chen Xiao Diao as thanks for the information.

Lin Chen took a look and saw it was a light blue spell card, [Holy Chant Prayer]!

Is this the strength of the Church of Light?!

They just casually give away a blue card as a thank you?!

Lin Chen really wanted to stop the bishop and ask what else he wanted to know.

I know everything from the heavens to the earth, I'm familiar with folk customs and rural ghost stories;

I also know a thing or two about the God of Wine's love life, are you interested? I guarantee I'll tell you everything I know!

Why be a miserable Card Master? Why make cards when you can get them quickly!

Bishop, I don't want to work hard anymore!

The author, along with Lin Chen, is here to ask for votes and continued reading!

Lin Chen took a look and saw it was a light blue [Double Monthly Ticket]!

Huh? Is this the strength of the readers?!

They just casually give away a monthly ticket as a reward!

Readers, I don't want to work hard anymore!

In the second round of the life-and-death PK, help this book advance to the next round!

With the joy of a bountiful harvest, Lin Chen and Chen Xiao Diao each returned home to isolate.

But for Lin Chen, isolation definitely wouldn't be a passive affair. He was confident he wouldn't be contaminated.

Because he possessed his natal bond God Card, which naturally granted him resistance to divinity. Even something on the level of the Black Goat's Egg couldn't affect him.

Returning to his cozy little home, he could finally relax the tension in his nerves that had been taut all day. Lin Chen let loose.

As usual, he began his daily review.

This time's gains could be described as a bountiful harvest!

One [Building Card], a set of materials for [Maenad of the God of Wine - Maenads], and most importantly—

The shaft of the [God of Wine Staff] that was missing its pinecone!

In the culture of the God of Wine, the pinecone symbolizes agricultural harvest and is also a projection of male "vitality."

It represents "breeding," "harvest," and "debauchery."

It should be the core of the [God of Wine Staff]'s divine power and authority.

That's why Amber abandoned the staff and only took the pinecone.

But having the staff shaft is also good, as it's a component of "Divine Equipment."

Without the influence of the God of Wine's authority, its spirituality would only be purer and more refined.

For Lin Chen, it was an even more versatile material for card making!

I must praise Yuchi Gong's new skill, [Single Whip Seizes Spear], it's simply a divine skill!

The spirit rat steals, but Yuchi Gong snatches directly!

Your weapon is very powerful, wow, unfortunately, it's about to be mine.

But he couldn't just be happy; there were still several key mysteries to unravel.

Amber's objective was clear—to revive the "Godhead of the God of Wine."

But where did he teleport the Holy Grail and the Godhead to in the end?

Judging by that eerie teleportation item, [Blood-Meat Beacon - Gestation], there must be a corresponding receiving beacon.

Given the blood-meat type of the item, it should be a contact from the Mother Goddess cult.

Then what is the Mother Goddess cult's objective?

Are they merely nurturing a Black Goat cub to spread contamination?

No... that reward is too low-level!

Their true objective is likely—

To summon the Mother Goddess's gaze through the Black Goat cub!

And they almost succeeded in the end.

If that were the case, then Lin Chen had indeed prevented a city-level disaster this time.

Thinking of this, a sneer flickered in his heart:

The Cult of the God of Wine and the Mother Goddess cult appear to be cooperating for mutual benefit, but when it comes down to it, as long as they can achieve their own cult's goals, they will betray each other.

It seems that even among heretical cults, there are hidden agendas and internal strife!

And with that, Lin Chen suspected that the major Outer God factions were secretly infiltrating beliefs and causing trouble.

Thinking further, the eerie invasion a hundred years ago... could it have been orchestrated by these Outer Gods working together?

Could it have been a "God War"?!

Greek mythology has the Titanomachy, Norse mythology has Ragnarok...

Could the beginning of this world's "Eerie Era" also have been a war between Outer Gods and native divine beings?

The truth was still unknown for now, but a direction was vaguely emerging.

Reviewing everything, what troubled Lin Chen the most was the Door God's words—

"Open."

The Huaxia Door Gods represented authority over sealing and defense.

"Open," on the other hand, was the complete opposite meaning!

Was it telling him to "open" something?

Or perhaps... was "Open" itself a warning?

Lin Chen rubbed his temples, pushing these thoughts aside for the moment.

"Oracles are truly riddlers..."

There was too little intelligence right now; these profound theological discussions could only be noted down for now.

It was time to consider the most practical matters!

He was out of money again!

After completing the Black Gold Black Shop - Cross Slope Crossroads Happy Forest, his savings were reduced to a pittance.

The Happy Forest wouldn't produce materials that quickly either; it would take at least four or five days for a complete one to take shape.

"Perhaps... I should join the official side?"

The moment Lin Chen had this thought—

The Wu Song card trembled, emitting a sense of resistance:

"Recruitment, recruitment, what kind of recruitment is this!"

That's right, Wu Erlang was unrestrained and loved freedom, and was also the first on Mount Liang to strongly resist the imperial court's recruitment.

A hurried divine sense from Yuchi Gong also came from his spiritual platform:

"A true man born between heaven and earth, how can he be dejected and live under others for long?!

My lord has the aura of a true dragon, why should he grovel at others' feet?!"

That's right, Yuchi Gong was also a rebel. He was the main instigator of the Xuanwu Gate Incident;

At that time, Yuchi Gong was even more eager than Li Shimin!

If he were to join the Security Bureau, and they wanted to study the God Cards, Yuchi Gong would probably be the first to rebel!

Lin Chen wanted to "cultivate cards through nurturing," so he had to consider the emotions and wishes of his Card Spirits.

His Card Spirits were all proud and upright; he couldn't mess with their "Dao heart."

Wu Song was also right. In Water Margin, they first beat the imperial court black and blue before they could even talk about recruitment terms!

Although Lin Chen wouldn't go so far as to confront the authorities.

But without some strength, who would be willing to have a dialogue with you as an equal?!

Moreover...

Wasn't there still a source of income here—

Grinding instances!

Because he had been healed by the Advanced Purification, Lin Chen was still quite energetic;

So, there's no better day than today, let's go now!

Because he had a natal bond connection with the Door Gods, Lin Chen could be teleported into the Door God Temple together, manifesting from the Door God statue.

[Myriad Ghosts Night Parade Capital]

The familiar cold, ghostly aura washed over him. The city lights twinkled in the distance, yet they were still shrouded in a haze.

He was back where this dream began.

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

A nimble figure darted over—it was the Spirit Rat Temple Steward!
