These Infestor will gradually change the perception of the Slaks, making their thinking begin to approach Swarm units.
Physically, Infestor will also undergo modifications to enhance the host's combat effectiveness. This modification is hidden and will not be seen by anyone unless Infestor fully bursts out to fight or undergoes a comprehensive genetic examination.
After everyone drank the drinks, Johnny closed his eyes and sensed the Infestor that began to become active in the Slak's body. Johnny smiled even more satisfied. When the infection matures, he can establish a simple small network.
The process of drinking holy water is followed by sharing the Holy Communion, which is the most anticipated part of the gathered low-level Slaks. Although the food is not very good, a free and filling dinner is too attractive to them.
The previous chef helped a lot in this process, and Infestor strengthened his talent. He used those cheap ingredients to cook delicious sweet porridge, and some meat added to the deliciousness of the porridge.
The simplest dishes are as delicious as the top ones. All the Slaks were shocked by this simple traditional food. It turns out that sweet and fragrant porridge can be so delicious.
There were about 3,000 to 4,000 people gathered in the abandoned building. In order to feed everyone, Johnny asked the chef to prepare a meal for 5,000 people. As a result, they were all eaten, and everyone was still hungry.
After eating the Holy Communion, we come to the last part and the most important part, praying to the gods.
At this stage, the sanctity of the god must be increased, so Johnny made a simple statue for the god.
This is thanks to the generosity of Zhang Han. The previous incubation logic of Overmind and Zerg were always enough. For example, the mimic bug only instills the knowledge of destruction and penetration.
Zhang Han was also Overmind for the first time, and his expectations for the mimic bugs were also very high, so he poured in a lot of other knowledge. A simple statue came out of Johnny's hand, and it was simply the work of a master of art.
Not only is it lifelike, it is also divine and abnormal. The main body of the statue is a majestic and domineering Slark. This was designed by Johnny according to the aesthetics of the Slark. The rest is weird.
He has four strong arms. If you look closely, you can easily see that these arms are very similar to Swarm's jointed limbs. There is also a Neural Thorn behind his head.
The combination of the sacred and the weird will give the viewer a strange feeling, and ordinary Slarks will feel a little uncomfortable looking at it.
But here, those who worship the gods and pray to the gods are not ordinary Slaks, but Slaks who are gradually being eroded by Infestor and affecting their cognition. In their eyes, these weird places are as pure and sacred as angel wings.
"Great four-armed snake god, as your loyal believer, I pray to you and thank you for giving me food and life." Johnny took the lead and lowered his head towards the statue in worship.
He was not completely acting, he was sincere, because when he was shaping the statue, what he was thinking about was Overmind.
Following Johnny's example, all the Slarks also began to pray, and the sound of prayers praising the four-armed snake god surrounded the crowd.
The prayer lasted for an hour, and every Slark present became a loyal believer in the four-armed snake god.
Closing his eyes, Johnny carefully felt the activity of Infestor in their bodies. Infestor adopted a mild symbiotic relationship. They had no IQ and could only light up their consciousnesses like fireflies in Swarm Network.
This is enough. Through religion and Infestor, the organizational system established by Johnny will be unbreakable and there will be almost no betrayers.
He can learn from how Overmind controlled the harpies to control the Slarks, and slowly turn them into Swarm's peripheral network.
After disbanding the believers, the three original homeless people gathered around Johnny and listened to his instructions. The three people voluntarily gave up their names, and Johnny could only call them students, chefs, and workers.
"Dear Archbishop, our team is growing like wildfire, more and more people are willing to join us, and the surrounding gangs have expressed their surrender. However, our food and funds are not enough." The chef spoke first.
"Yes, I understand. This kind of party cannot stop. We don't have enough funds to buy food. I will find a way." Nodding, Johnny replied.
The second person who spoke was a worker, "Following your order, dear archbishop, I have re-contacted my former workers. After communicating with them, they are very interested in the church's ideas and are willing to support us."
"Some people also proposed to establish workers' own organizations and armed forces, ready to fight the company to the death."
"In this regard, you have to appease them, don't expand the team too quickly, and only recruit trustworthy people. Our purpose is not just to violently overthrow the company, we are to build a better society." Johnny reassured.
The last person to speak was a student, who was very excited, "Master, you are the most knowledgeable and wise person I have ever met. The seeds you gave me for cultivation have germinated, and its output is better than all the products on the market. The machine tools you designed are also working. I can't imagine that you built a small arms factory out of some junk."
"You are a genius. People like you can stand out and make a lot of money wherever they go. However, you live in a shabby and unfinished building and eat the simplest sweet porridge for us, the people at the bottom."
When it came to the emotional part, the student's voice was choked up and he almost cried.
Johnny touched the student's tail with his snake's tail, which in Slak custom means comfort.
"I did this because of the divine inspiration of the four-armed snake body. I am not a genius. My knowledge and wisdom all come from the gift of God." Johnny's expression was more pious than anyone else's, as if every word he said was true.
"God said to let me lead you out of suffering, so I came. God said to let me lead you to the light, so I will practice it."
After hearing Johnny's pious speech, the chef and three others lowered their heads and began to pray, "Praise the four-armed snake god."
After arranging things in the church, Johnny left here. After passing through a secret passage, he turned into a purple fox again.
After returning to his luxurious residence, he immediately sent a message to Mengka. There was a secret gang expanding in the lower city in the name of religion. He hoped that his gang could handle this kind of thing alone, and reported the development of his gang and handed over the profits.
Johnny did not doubt that Mengka would hand over the power of disposal to him. Mengka also saw his ability. His gang expanded rapidly, his management was excellent, and the profits he turned over were 10% higher than before.
Now he is both a regulator and a destroyer. When the time comes, he can be anyone in the company, and everything is under his control.
