After hanging up the harassing phone call from the platform, Hu Jingkun slowly walked back to his workstation with his hands in his hands.
Just as he was walking, he felt a line of sight coming towards him inexplicably.
Hu Jingkun turned his head and looked over, but saw nothing. He was just blinked by Lao Mo's bald head.
"Strange……"
Hu Jingkun, who was a little confused, shrugged and returned to his work station.
Unlocking the computer, switching to the table interface, and typing in random words, his eyes gradually became distracted, and he started to stare blankly again.
It was only the morning, and his symptoms of low energy had not yet occurred. At this point, he was just thinking about things.
Yesterday's conversation with Isis, in addition to the information about the world of black mist and the civet clan, we also talked about other things.
It also includes the reasons why Isis’ faith grows slowly——
The civet tribe was created by Grace, the Mother of the Night, with the purpose of creating a group of believers who could survive in the world of black mist.
But halfway through this creation experiment, the last civilized city fell. After that, the civet tribe took advantage of the chaos and escaped from the laboratory, wandering alone in the world of black mist.
According to the vision of the Mother of Night, Grace, the civet tribe will be an intelligent species that coexists with the black mist.
It's a pity that the experiment has not been completed yet. Isis and the others only have resistance to the black mist and cannot coexist at all.
The Mother of Night also modified the souls of the first-generation civets, making them extremely devout believers in their faith.
This design was not completed either.
The civet tribe does have this phenomenon of fanaticism, but it only appears in adult cat ladies, and the symptoms will lessen after a period of time.
I'm talking about Bai Lu, a little cat girl who has just grown up.
Both believers of Constant Faith 100, Liuli and Isis both behaved normally. Only Bai Lu seemed to be missing a nerve, always yelling about what the gods were doing.
Even the breeding method of the civet clan was specially designed by the Mother of Night.
Hu Jingkun occasionally sees kittens in the village fighting with their tails, and several cat ladies also experience similar situations.
The fundamental reason for this phenomenon is that their cat tails have independent consciousness, so they sometimes work against the main body.
As the civet tribe grows, its soul will slowly separate into some fragments that do not affect the main body, forming a weak consciousness in the cat's tail.
This new soul will inherit part of the subject's memories, personality, and preferences.
The Night Mother's plan is very feasible.
He forcibly transformed the first generation of civet cats into fanatic believers, and the second and third generations of kittens born subsequently, because their souls came from the mother of the fanatic believer, naturally had extremely high faith in the Mother of Night.
In this way, the civet clan thrives in the world of black mist, and every kitten will become a loyal believer of the Mother of Night.
It's a pity that the Mother of Night was so unlucky that she died before the experiment was successful.
Even the civets who escaped from the laboratory were convinced by Hu Jingkun, the treacherous cat god and cow, and completely lost the race they created, making a wedding dress for his god.
…
The reason why Isis's faith is difficult to improve is precisely because she has experienced various inhumane experiments by the Mother of Night.
The fire at the city gate affected Chi Yu. The Mother of Night was not a good thing, which made her also wary of Hu Jingkun's belief in the cat god.
"Then why are you willing to believe in me?"
Hu Jingkun was very curious at that time and asked specifically.
“Lord Cat God, the way you treat your believers is completely different from other gods.
The Mother of Night never performs miracles to help her believers. Even the priests under her command have extremely limited powers. "
Isis highly admired Hu Jingkun's kindness and praised him gushingly for several minutes.
It seems that the character of the fanatical believer shaped by the Mother of Night is still influential - Isis would never brag about the Cat God like this before.
When a certain god heard these words, he looked away guiltily and did not dare to answer.
Before, he thought it was a game and didn't think too much about it. He made light balls all over the Civet Village to disperse the black fog, and then performed miracles just for fun.
When giving Liuli permission, he wanted to be lazy and take precautions.
If something happens to Lingmao Village when he is not at the computer, Liuli can use magic to deal with it.
As for allowing Liuli to use half of his daily faith quota - believers of the Civet Clan contribute hundreds of faith every day, so why not give them to Liuli?
He has a cat girl who can use magic, so he has to pamper her!
No, Isis can also use divine magic now.
After reacting, Hu Jingkun edited Isis's faith usage quota.
As an important agent, Liuli uses 40% of the daily income of faith, and Isis uses 10%.
The role of the Guardian Knight is nothing more than to fight and kill, don't think about using any magic, just use Holy Slash if you have some faith quota.
Back to the point.
The fundamental reason why Hu Jingkun has been in a daze is because at the end of the communication with Isis, she made a request.
"The cat wants to organize a group of kittens for military training and teach them combat skills."
Generally speaking, Hu Jingkun will not interfere with the development of Lingmao Village, but will only provide some knowledge, technical support, and general direction instructions.
Isis was worried that letting the kittens out of labor for training would go against the instructions of the gods' ancestors on population and food, so she specifically asked Hu Jingkun for instructions.
Hu Jingkun did not immediately respond to this request and kept thinking about it during work hours.
He likes to keep developing when playing games. He likes to go out and attack people after Q reaches 999 soldiers. He avoids battles and develops online as much as possible.
When I played Baldur's Gate 3 with Brother Yan, he also chose the bard. He talked all the way through the game and wouldn't fight if he could.
He struggled all morning about whether to agree to Isis's request. It was not until a conversation with Brother Yan during lunch that he changed his mind.
"Without the support of force, no matter how well you develop, you are still just a piece of meat in the eyes of others, and they can come up and take a bite at any time."
"But I didn't say not to develop force. Isn't this putting people's livelihood first and then military..."
"Is it possible that others are neighbors stocking up on food and I am stocking up on guns?"
"..."
Brother Yan thought Hu Jingkun was talking about local conflicts abroad, so he talked enthusiastically.
Several other colleagues who went downstairs to eat listened and couldn't help but join in and give advice together.
Hu Jingkun hid in a corner and ate silently, not daring to say a word.
He just mentioned it casually, and as a result, Brother Yan and the others' political spirit was ignited, and they were arguing about this thing all afternoon.
But thanks to the political battle between these middle-aged colleagues, he got his thinking straight - the world of black mist is not a game.
In that kind of crisis-ridden environment, who knows which one will come first, tomorrow or the accident.
"Okay, okay, let's revise the plan and increase our military strength."
Hu Jingkun was persuaded by Brother Yan, who liked to play barbarian, and said to himself.
"Nothing is enough. All the people must be soldiers! Hiding soldiers among the people is the best way to resist aggression!"
Brother Yan, who was red-faced after arguing with his colleagues, turned around and glared at Hu Jingkun's words.
"Come on, you still hide your troops from the people..."
Hu Jingkun was too lazy to pay attention to Brother Yan, who was so talkative. He took out his mobile phone and started typing to record his thoughts.
Since it is training, casualties will inevitably occur.
And according to Isis's idea, she would also regularly enter the black forest to kill monsters approaching the village.
Obviously, the former patriarch has not forgotten the death of Amethyst and is full of hostility towards the monsters in the Black Forest.
If there is a risk of injury or death, protective measures must be taken.
Although a cheap resurrection technique has been developed, it takes time for kittens to crawl out of the ground. Too many kittens dying will affect the development of the village.
After thinking about it, he decided to add some healing magic to Isis after he went back.
The amount of faith that Isis can use has also been increased from 10% of the daily income to 30%, and she and Liuli share 60% of the faith.
"Hey, why do you feel like you're being plotted by Isis?"
Seeing that the newly released plan was all about strengthening Isis, Hu Jingkun suddenly felt a subtle sense of immediacy.
