I Have a God Simulator

After the Rule Power corrected the world, the simulator’s prompts indicated the most significant entities of this Era were the Dark Sun and Dragons. In addition to them, two new groups had been added.

The Giant Monsters of the Land of the Far North, and the Elves in the Southern Forest.

Luh Yao looked down upon the Northern Continent.

This new landmass looked like a curved, volcanic sausage. At one end was the newly constructed Dragon Nest, and at the other was a settlement where the Giant Monsters were concentrated.

Isabel floated in the air on her Magic Staff, ensuring she had a view with no blind spots.

Selena traveled alone on the ground, her sword leading her through the snowy mountains.

At first, Giant Monsters along the path watched her menacingly. But after Selena left a trail of shattered ice in her wake, the Ice Giant Monsters all hid behind glaciers and rocks, only daring to peek at her.

But this still displeased Selena.

After she slaughtered another wave of them, the Ice Giant Monsters fled in a panic. They waved the large trees in their hands, roaring warnings to their kin to run for their lives!

Selena set foot in the basin-like lair where the Giant Monsters were hiding.

There were many Ice Giant Monsters here, nearly a hundred of them. But now, they cowered in the corners, their faces turned away, not daring to look at the slender intruder in the red cloak.

A dialog box appeared above Selena’s head.

"I am here on patrol, on behalf of the great God, Lord Yao God."

"I don’t care if you understand me or not."

"But you must unconditionally obey the Divine Will."

"If the God says you are to enter the volcano, you must live in the volcano."

"If the God says you are to learn how to swim, you must all learn to enter the water."

"Understood?"

Selena stood leaning on her sword, her gaze sweeping over the surroundings.

A relatively small Giant Monster stepped out from the group. It was different from its kin; aside from its smaller Body Type, it wore a crown woven from branches on its head.

A dialog box also appeared above the crowned Giant Monster’s head. "Respected and powerful guest, the Giant Monster race would never dare to defy a God. Please believe that the Giant Monster race will firmly abide by the Divine Will."

Luh Yao clicked on this special Giant Monster.

...

’Just as the saying goes, an elder is a treasure,’ Luh Yao thought.

’With an elder who possesses [Wisdom], many things become much more convenient.’

The Giant Monster Elder continued, "The Ice Giant Monster race has just awoken from a long slumber. Many Eras have passed in the outside world."

"All of our kin witnessed the God conquer the black Sun with celestial fire and massive stones, causing the Sun to fall from the sky..."

"If I may, could I trouble you to spread the Lord God’s Gospel to us?"

the elder asked humbly.

"Of course," Selena said.

"The great Yao God is the one and only Creator and ruler of this world. Aside from Him and His Subordinate God, the White God, all others are Pseudo-Gods and heretics."

...

"I will leave a mirror here," she said. "When needed, I will find you by passing through the Mirror Country."

The elder asked with some apprehension, "Excuse me, what does the God require of the Giant Monster race?"

"The God does not need your insignificant power."

Selena stressed, "What the God desires is devotion."

"The Ice Giant Monster race will believe in the great Yao God for all generations."

The elder led the way, kneeling on the ground and pressing the branch crown on his head into the snow.

Although the other Giant Monsters didn’t quite understand, they all copied the elder, arranging their massive bodies into kneeling, prayerful poses.

Selena transformed into a ray of moonlight.

The shadow of a Divine Statue, created by the light of her sword, appeared on the ground.

"You must commit the image of Lord Yao God’s Divine Statue to memory."

Selena stepped into the mirror and departed.

The Divine Statue of light quickly faded, disappearing completely.

Under the elder’s direction, the Ice Giant Monsters sprang into action.

In their lair, they used snow to build a giant Divine Statue. It was in a seated position with a blurry face. Given the pixelated graphics, it looked no different from the Divine Statue in the Divine Hall.

Luh Yao was quite satisfied.

Selena had handled the matter efficiently, and the Ice Giant Monsters’ declaration of loyalty was resolute.

Monsters with Faith are good monsters.

The world was vast enough to accommodate a tribe of Ice Giant Monsters.

...

Having settled the north, Luh Yao turned his gaze south.

On the New Continent at the South End of the Great Sea, over two-thirds of the land was covered by forests. The rest consisted of lakes and high mountains, showing no signs of having been cultivated.

Speaking of which, Luh Yao had started working on the Southern New Continent even earlier. He had sent his Subordinate God, the White God, there to spread the Faith and get things started.

But so far, He hadn’t reported back at all.

Luh Yao clicked on the White God’s Divine Statue, and his perspective jumped to a forest.

The White God was currently sleeping, with ZZZs floating above His head.

A group of butterfly-like Little Elves circled around the stout White Wild Boar. They were presenting Him with all sorts of fruits and a honey-like liquid served on leaves, wood chips, and stone slates.

Whenever the White God opened His mouth, a Little Elf would toss food into His cavernous maw.

’He’s certainly living the good life.’

Suddenly, the White God’s body trembled as if He sensed impending danger.

He pressed His four hooves to the ground and prostrated Himself, trembling.

"Lord True God... um, this humble god is, uh, investigating the state of the Elf Race’s Faith... yes, first by taste-testing their food, and then by observing their daily life and so on..."

Luh Yao sent a bolt of lightning crashing down on the White Wild Boar’s head.

"AWOO!"

The White God shrieked in pain from the blow, trembling all over. "I was wrong, I was wrong! This humble god was slacking off!"

Luh Yao typed.

—Get ready. I’m sending you to the Abyss for training.

An exclamation mark popped up over the White God’s head, and He trembled violently. "Lord True God, I won’t dare do it again, I truly won’t! I beg you, please, not the Abyss! A place like that, this humble god really..."

He suddenly remembered something, and a lightbulb lit up over His head.

"Lord True God, I’ve made an important discovery here!"

"There is a wonder hidden in the Symbiotic Forest here. It’s very special! Your subordinate has a very strong feeling that if we can conquer and restore it, we will surely get something good! Only your great power can conquer it!"

Luh Yao understood what He was getting at.

’Redeeming himself through meritorious service wasn’t out of the question.’

’I’ll take a look first.’

"It’s just up ahead. This subordinate will lead the way."

The White God trotted ahead.

Soon, He arrived before a lake in the forest.

The lake was green, its surface shimmering with specks of starlight.

Luh Yao selected it with his mouse.

...

[Elf Lake]: A wonder built by the Elf Race.

...

It was indeed a wonder, but there were no other details.

Luh Yao brought up his decoder: the [True Sight Curse].

With the aid of the Main God-Level Spell, the Elf Lake’s information panel instantly became more detailed.

...

[Ruined Elf Lake]: A wonder built by the Elf Race.

Elves on the verge of death return to the lake to slumber for eternity, and new Elves are born from the lake.

[Sacrificial Ceremony]

An ancient ritual established between the Symbiotic Forest and the Elves, in which the Elves sacrifice themselves to nourish the Symbiotic Forest.

[Tree Demon Curse]

A Tree Demon has placed a Curse upon it.

[Lake Treasure Chest]

Unavailable.

...

Luh Yao mused.

’The Elves and the Symbiotic Forest don’t seem to have a very harmonious relationship, and the Elf Lake is even under a Curse. As for the Lake Treasure Chest, I wonder what’s inside.’

Luh Yao casually clicked on an Elf.

...

[Little Elf LV3]

Life Value: 29/29

Mana Value: 2/2

Damage: 1

Defense: 1

Speed: 5

[Elf]

Elf Creatures that possess long lifespans, but grow very slowly.

[Forest Element LV1]

As Forest Elemental Creatures, they promote rapid forest growth. All their Attributes are enhanced while in a forest. The effect depends on the ability’s level and their Life Value.

...

The Little Elves’ Combat Power was better than nothing, but just barely.

Luh Yao scanned the Southern New Continent and immediately found traces of the Tree Demon.

’This Tree Demon’s name is Jody. While her behavior is a bit... peculiar, she isn’t the kind of threat that needs to be eliminated immediately.’

While observing the Tree Demon, Luh Yao summoned the Forest Elemental Creatures from the Western Continent.

’I’ve been raising these troops for a while now. It’s time to put them through some real combat drills.’
