Scepter of All Gods

A few hours ago:

All the bosses and heroes went to gather their forces and prepare for the attack, but the members of the Council of Sages were still having their final discussions.

"Speaking of which, we have enough troops now, and we've recruited enough BOSSes and heroes, but you still haven't told us how to become a god? Does it mean that as long as we kill the three main gods, we can become gods? But so many gods have fallen in the past, and we've never seen a new god be born?" The one who asked the question was the Sage of Time, Kairoz.

The others also looked puzzled, and although they didn't speak, they were clearly waiting for Shen Yuan's answer.

Faced with everyone's questions, Shen Yuan smiled slightly and said slowly, "The reason why gods are gods is that, in addition to possessing great power, there is another most important thing, which is their divine nature."

The number of deities is fixed; they represent the most fundamental aggregates of some things in this world.

For example, the God of Holy Light is the embodiment of the Holy Light's Will and the manifestation of all the power of Holy Light. In a sense, he is Holy Light itself.

If a god is defeated, the power that the god represents will also be severely damaged. For example, if the sea god is defeated, the sea will lose its restraint and become Enrage.

If the Moon Goddess is defeated, the moon will become dim and lose its light, and all spells and skills related to moonlight will be greatly reduced in power or even become unusable.

However, this is not permanent. The power of this world is conserved. These powers will not disappear for no reason; they will simply dissipate. When a new god is born, these powers will reassemble into the god's body.

So how can one seize and use such power of the world's origin? That requires divinity. When a god is killed, the divinity within him is also lost. In the past, I always thought that these fragments of divinity were scattered around and needed to be collected in some special way. However, after searching for a long time in the places where those gods fell, I found nothing. And the Pantheon obviously wouldn't ignore these decisive powers.

Therefore, we have reason to believe that all this divine power has been recovered by the Pantheon. It's very likely that Li Mingfei possesses a special artifact that can automatically collect the scattered divine power. With Merlin's help, I obtained the answer. Just as I guessed, in the game's database, there is an artifact called the Scepter of All Gods. The Scepter of All Gods is said to possess the power to Rule All Gods. This scepter is in the hands of the God of Holy Light, and all the fragments of divine power are contained within it. If we can seize this scepter, then we can obtain all the divine power. I will use this scepter to bestow divine office upon you and appoint you as gods."

As he spoke, Shen Yuan showed everyone the attributes of the Scepter of All Gods.

[Name: Scepter of All Gods]

[Category:???]

[Quality:???]

[Function:???]

[Divine Power Reserves: 15315/20000]

[Item Effect 1 (Passive): Rule All Gods. When equipped with this item, you automatically gain the allegiance of the gods. At the same time, the Scepter of All Gods can automatically absorb the divine power scattered throughout the world.]

[Item Effect 2 (Passive): All Gods' Magic Mastery, increases the power of divine magic skills by 100%]

[Item Effect 3 (Active): Godhood Bestowal Ritual. Perform the Godhood Bestowal Ritual on a target, granting that target a divine office and corresponding divine power. A weak divine office consumes 500 points of divine power, a medium divine office consumes 1000 points of divine power, and a high divine office consumes 2000 points of divine power. Only units with 9 or more skeletons can receive the Godhood Bestowal Ritual.]

[Item Description: All things under heaven, all gods of the four directions, and even all living beings under heaven must obey my command.]

In fact, Shen Yuan did not tell the whole truth.

When they created the Sky World, he and Li Mingfei each possessed half of the quantum computer resources, and they both designed their own power systems.

Li Mingfei created gods to govern the various forces in the world, and used the Scepter of All Gods to govern these gods. The Scepter of All Gods can be considered the core of power in the Sky World, the key to authority, and the item possessing the highest level of control in the game.

Shen Yuan, however, did the opposite. He believed that the game should be allowed to develop on its own and should not be subject to artificial control or constraints. Therefore, he used his own quantum computer resources to create four Old Gods. These four Old Gods each had their own independent behavior patterns and were not restricted by the system rules. However, Shen Yuan also left himself a backdoor. Once the power of the four Old Gods was combined, then theoretically, he would have the highest authority.

Now that Shen Yuan already possesses the Overlord, a servant with the highest level of control, if he could also seize the Scepter of All Gods, he would theoretically have the ability to control the entire quantum computer's resources, and even the ability to modify the game system and control the quantum computer. However, of course, he would not say these things.

"I see," everyone agreed, finally understanding.

However, Xiao Yu did not fully understand Shen Yuan's answer. What if Shen Yuan did not confer the title of god? What if he did not keep his promise? Although the possibility was very low, it could not be completely ruled out.

Furthermore, if such a thing Scepter of All Gods truly existed, wouldn't it be better to possess it oneself?

Now that he lives in a completely safe place, Li Mingfei can't harm him, and Shen Yuan can't do anything to him either. He doesn't need to worry about any real-world threats. So, if he could obtain the Scepter of All Gods, wouldn't he have the ability to challenge the game company?

Xiao Yu's idea was not without reason. Firstly, he really liked the game, otherwise he wouldn't have played it for several years. If he could use the Scepter of All Gods to negotiate with the game company and become a shareholder, he would be extremely happy. Even if he couldn't become a shareholder, selling the Scepter of All Gods for hundreds of millions or even billions should still be no problem.

Even if he didn't use it for profit, he could use the Scepter of All Gods to build his own divine world and become the second god after Shen Yuan. But nothing beats becoming the supreme god. He could then deify all his underlings and become the King of All Gods in the game. Just thinking about it made him feel secretly thrilled.

The second reason is because of the future Xiao Yu he encountered before. Although he didn't know whether Xiao Yu was an illusion from the game or something else, it did make him somewhat suspicious and wary of Shen Yuan's behavior. Besides, it's never as satisfying to place your hopes on someone else as it is to have them in your own hands.

Thinking of this, before the attack began, Xiao Yu exited the game, opened his contacts, and scanned the list of names. Some of these people were friends from the game, some were business partners, and most were just ordinary friends or people with whom he could exchange interests. However, there were one or two people he could completely trust. In the end, he clicked on one name.

The communication was established very quickly.

Xiao Yu: Hey, long time no see. Interested in doing a big deal with me? A really big deal.
