I Have a God Simulator

As an enemy, Selena had been defiant and proud. But after switching sides, she immediately became respectful and proper.

"My lord."

Selena took an Artifact from her cloak and presented it with both hands. "This is a Faith Artifact. Please accept it, Lord God. You must be the one to hold it to unleash its full power."

’Recruiting someone comes with a bonus gift?’

’I can’t believe my luck.’

Luh Yao was a little surprised.

The new Artifact was a strange symbol, like an inverted capital letter A.

...

[True Sight Curse]: Faith -500/use.

The wielder must use Fire of Faith or Life Value as sustenance to briefly activate this Forbidden Curse and use the Main God Level [Eye of True Sight].

...

This was the first time Luh Yao had ever seen an Artifact that consumed Faith.

’Still, I wonder what a Main God Level [Eye of True Sight] can do.’

He decided to run an experiment.

Luh Yao pulled up the [True Sight Curse] and aimed it at Selena.

His Faith in the top right corner instantly dropped by 500.

On the screen, faint, crack-like lines of light suddenly appeared on Selena’s body. Her personal panel also changed abruptly, showing three new lines in addition to the previous data.

...

[Divine Format]: None.

[Divinity]: None.

[Divine Body]: Gods Tier.

...

’This thing can identify a God’s Traits.’

Luh Yao was thrilled.

When facing monsters, he could quickly view their abilities and attribute panels.

But against Gods, especially when they were in their Divine Statue form, Luh Yao was completely in the dark and had to constantly probe for information.

With the [True Sight Curse], dealing with other Gods in the future would be much easier for Luh Yao.

He could see their Divine Format status, Divinity state, and Divine Body strength at a glance... By grasping the fundamental power of other Gods, his decision-making would be faster and more accurate.

The first clear of the Abyss First Layer dungeon was complete. His third pioneering attempt was a massive harvest!

Luh Yao then asked Selena about the seal on the First Layer.

"My lord, the seal is the work of a God. Only a God with a complete Divine Format, Divinity, and Divine Body can alter and absorb the Fire of Faith."

"For the Gods trapped in the Abyss, their Divine Format and Divinity have been stripped away by the Dark God. They cannot touch or influence the Fire of Faith, and thus cannot break the seal on each layer."

"I don’t know the current situation on the other layers, but the First Layer’s seal contains an extremely troublesome monster."

"It is the strongest being on the First Layer."

Selena said, "That thing came from the tenth layer. It’s a Curse Insect."

"Curse Insects are monsters gestated from the Divine Bodies of Gods, using them as nourishment. They start in an egg form, which looks like a series of strange symbols."

"Only a very small number of eggs can hatch into larvae."

"But once they become larvae, Curse Insects possess astonishing destructive power and mutate to develop all sorts of incomprehensible special abilities..."

’Hold on.’

Luh Yao couldn’t help but interrupt her.

He suddenly remembered that a living Spell had been one of the rewards from the [Golden Field]. ’Could that be a Curse Insect egg?’

"Yes, my lord. A living Spell is, in fact, the egg of a Curse Insect."

Luh Yao couldn’t help but look at his Artifact Bar.

’In that case, is the True Sight Curse one too?’

"Yes, my lord."

Selena confirmed it again and continued, "The bodies of different Gods have different abilities. Through certain means, whether by mutation or transformation, these abilities gradually become independent entities. These are Curse Eggs."

"Curse Eggs exist in a state between life and death, making them very difficult to hatch. Most Curse Eggs, or living Spells, are basically harmless, as long as you aren’t controlled or drained dry by them."

Luh Yao was baffled.

’Not being controlled or drained dry?’

’And that’s considered basically harmless?’

He didn’t know if Selena was overestimating Divine Players or underestimating Curse Eggs.

"Conversely, however, if a Curse Egg transforms into a Curse Insect, even a larva, it can cause a massive disaster. Even Gods have a very difficult time when they encounter a Curse Insect."

"The reason is that Curse Insects have a special resistance to the Power of Faith, making it difficult for Gods to destroy them with Miracles. They are born knowing how to resist Miracles."

A chill went down Luh Yao’s spine.

’Resistant to the Power of Faith?’

’No wonder Curse Insects are so hard to deal with.’

"On the First Layer, the Curse Insect at the core of the seal..."

Selena paused, and the words in the dialogue box above her head appeared one by one.

"Is a Mature Form Curse Insect."

"Its threat level is equivalent to the Gods Tier."

Luh Yao never had a concrete concept of the Gods.

He was more concerned about the actual combat capabilities of the Gods Tier.

"The Gods can move worlds directly. Within Their world, They are almost impossible to completely eliminate."

Selena said succinctly, "The current Abyss First Layer is, in fact, the inside of this Curse Insect’s body."

’Alright, never mind then.’

Luh Yao decided that dealing with the First Layer’s Curse Insect was a matter for long-term planning.

After leaving the Abyss First Layer, the Apostles each returned to their duties.

The White God returned to Yan City to continue its job as the resident God.

The Blood Knight also went back to his castle to train the Corrupters.

The Snowman got back on his [Ghost White Horse] and searched the world for treasure.

Philos parked the [Skeleton King Armor] by the sea and began maintenance and repairs on the Skeleton Creatures.

The Deep Sea Lord Klau sank beneath the waves, slowly recovering with the help of the Water Elements.

Isabel mounted her Magic Staff and once again patrolled the entire world, searching for traces of other Gods or suspicious objects.

As for Selena, she went to the Yao City Divine Hall to preside over the ancient Holy City.

...

Luh Yao twisted his neck.

The great battle had forced him to be highly focused, and only after it ended did he feel a wave of mental exhaustion.

He lay on his bed and had Xiaohuo give him a massage for a while.

After resting for a bit, Luh Yao stretched and sat up in bed.

After nightfall, the wind outside blew hard, rattling the old glass windowpanes.

As Luh Yao closed the window, he saw Song Shiyi under the streetlight again.

She looked up at the lamp. An envelope swayed constantly in the wind, and her short hair was also tousled, making her look somewhat pitiful and lovely.

The wind was strong and the night was cold. Song Shiyi glanced at her phone and continued to wait patiently.

’Looks like she really is here for something important,’ Luh Yao figured.

’It’s been almost a week.’

’Should I have Isabel go check it out?’

’But not today.’

’The big battle just ended. I should let Isabel rest first.’

Luh Yao secured the window and fell straight to sleep.

...

Song Shiyi smoothed her wind-tousled hair with her hand.

The December night was exceptionally cold, and the wind was strong again tonight, turning her nose red.

She stomped her feet.

The sparrow on her shoulder, Mingzai, chirped away.

"Let’s go back, let’s go back! The wind’s too strong, you’ll catch a cold!"

"Just a little longer."

Song Shiyi touched her cheeks with both hands.

"Pick someone else, pick someone else! Other people can be volunteers too," Mingzai said again.

The young female prosecutor rubbed her hands together. "She’s the most suitable, and no one else is willing to come."

"Mary, Mary, she’s not sincere at all."

Mingzai flapped its wings, still chattering, "Mysterious origins, super secretive! If you’re not careful, she’ll sneak attack you."

"Why do you hate Mary so much?"

"Unknown origins, suspicious identity."

Song Shiyi smiled. "No matter how clear the intelligence records in the database are, they can’t tell us who abides by the law and who harbors malicious intent."

"Mary is the biggest hidden danger! A danger, a danger!"

Mingzai was relentless, circling in protest.

Song Shiyi checked the time on her phone. "Stop arguing. She hasn’t opened the letter I left, so she’s probably not around here anymore... Let’s just go home for today."

"Yay! Yay! Home, let’s go home!"

The sparrow flew excitedly in circles above the girl’s head.
