I Have a God Simulator

Luh Yao opened the Golden Field and navigated to [Black Abyss] - [First Layer] - [Ghost] - [Hai Zhe].

Hai Zhe's personal details slowly unfurled.

He had been placed in the Abyss's first layer 15 years ago, existing as one of Luh Yao's test subjects.

On the first layer, Hai Zhe quickly became acquainted with the Clay Race. Relying on his natural affinity and Enchantment, he gradually became the Clay Race's most important friend.

Hai Zhe quickly realized that the Clay Race possessed immense potential. These Earth Element humanoids had bodies made of clay, giving them the ability to modify their clay forms.

At the other end of the Abyss's first layer roamed Ghouls of a considerable Tier. They possessed powerful immediate Combat Power; if they were gathered, they would become a force to be reckoned with.

So, Hai Zhe created internal conflict among the Ghouls by destroying their graves. He then had the Clay Race help and repair them, gradually bringing the two Races into contact.

Hai Zhe's Doctor and Inventor Traits played a decisive role at this moment.

The highly malleable Clay Race and the combat-proficient Ghouls, under Hai Zhe's relentless efforts, gradually merged and transformed into an entirely new species.

Clay Corpse Demons.

The Corpse Demons merged the advantages of both Races. They possessed incredible survivability, combined the Clay Race's collectivist mindset and organization, and could utilize both Earth Element and toxins, representing a new future for Ghouls and the Clay Race.

Today, very few pure-blooded members of the Clay Race and Ghouls remain; most have embraced this fusion and Rebirth.

The backend logs showed that there were now 97 Clay Corpse Demons. The highest was LV48, and the lowest was LV40. Their levels were largely thanks to the boon provided by the Ghouls in the Abyss.

...

Luh Yao turned his gaze to Hai Zhe.

This Sinner, who had been executed and was now serving his sentence, was leading the Corpse Demon warriors into the second layer.

The aquatic environment of the second layer was dangerous for the Clay Race, but the Corpse Demons didn't care at all. They walked underwater, searching everywhere for potential prey.

Soon, they found what they were looking for at the bottom of the water.

"Commander, there are remains underwater! They're the remains of Earth Elemental Creatures!"

"I found some too."

"There are more over here, a lot of them, all at the bottom."

Just as the Corpse Demons were reveling in the Joy of their harvest, SPLASH! A behemoth shot out of the water.

It was a writhing, muddy monster that resembled some kind of upright giant squid, with a single pale eye on its head.

"A swarm of damned insects, daring to disturb my sleep."

'Just as I thought,' Luh Yao mused.

The Star Sea God was still here, recuperating.

At that same moment, all the Corpse Demons charged toward the Star Sea God.

An [In Combat] status immediately appeared above the Star Sea God's head.

Cutting to the battle screen, Luh Yao saw a Corpse Demon Self-Destruct in front of the Star Sea God. The explosion dealt a red -700 Damage Value right over the God's head.

Before the Star Sea God could react, one Corpse Demon after another launched a suicide charge against it.

It immediately transformed into a blue star, releasing damaging flashes of light all around.

...

[Divine Body]: Gods Tier

...

The Star Sea God's abilities were a bit surprising to Luh Yao.

Not only did it have a Mystery that could create Earth Elemental Creatures, but it also had a nasty trick: directly converting enemies into Earth Element to be eaten.

'Thinking back, the [Earth Elemental Sedimentation] status over the Parasite Insect's head must have been the effect of this assimilation ability. This ability has a high ceiling, but its weakness is a lack of burst damage. It has to wear its target down over time.'

Of course, it could also be because the Star Sea God had been weakened after being dragged into the Abyss.

On the battlefield, its situation was dire.

The Corpse Demons relentlessly launched suicide charges, with each Self-Destruction dealing 600 to 700 points of damage.

The Star Sea God's Starlight could inflict over 300 points of damage, but it couldn't kill a Corpse Demon quickly enough. This left the God in an extremely passive and disadvantaged position, with a continuous stream of red damage numbers appearing above its head.

As its Life Value continued to drop, the Star Sea God's body suddenly exploded into countless fragments.

Hai Zhe commanded, "Sinful Corps, waste nothing! Devour all the fragments of this Demigod's body! Make it a part of you! This is what you deserve!"

Luh Yao saw a small clay figure coalesce from the fragments. The Star Sea God was trying to move stealthily, seemingly attempting to slip away in the confusion.

But a Corpse Demon grabbed it and immediately Self-Destructed.

The Star Sea God roared in defiance, "You damned insects! How dare you... to a God—"

It was overwhelmed by the Corpse Demons' cold, relentless charges and explosions.

The Star Sea God's Life Value was completely depleted. It crumbled into countless grains of sand and silt, dyeing a large stretch of water a murky, yellowish-brown.

An excited emoji with sparkling eyes appeared above Hai Zhe's head.

He shouted from the side, "Warriors, do you see? Gods can bleed! Gods can fall!"

"Sinful Corps, today you have proven your strength and unity! As long as you stand together and believe in each other, you can achieve anything! The Demigod's corpse is the best proof!"

"The only good enemy is an enemy in your belly."

"Glory to Yao God! Courage proven by you!"

A dialogue box appeared above Hai Zhe's head: "First squad, secure the passage between the second and third layers."

"Second squad, collect the Corpse Demon fragments and bring them back to the first layer for Rebirth."

"Third squad, excavate the Earth Element and remains on this layer."

The Sinful Corps's division of labor was clear, and they acted with perfect Order under Hai Zhe's command.

In this battle, 52 Corpse Demons were killed. 41 completed their Rebirth, resulting in 11 actual deaths.

The fragments of the Star Sea God's Divine Body were shared and devoured by the Corpse Demons, raising their average level by 2 and even producing the first LV52 member.

This Corpse Demon also gained the [Starlight] ability. Although its damage output was nowhere near the Star Sea God's—dealing only around 150 damage per use—this ranged ability to create starlight gave the Corpse Demons more diverse tactics.

The greatest gain from occupying the Abyss Second Layer was the remains of Earth Elemental Creatures scattered across the underwater floor. Large amounts of Earth Element and clay had settled at the bottom, which the Corpse Demons absorbed to their hearts' content.

On Hai Zhe's orders, large quantities of remains and Earth Element sediment were transported to the first layer, becoming a strategic resource for nurturing Ghouls and the Clay Race.

Just as Luh Yao was getting engrossed, a notification popped up on the simulator.

[Hai Zhe has accomplished a feat unprecedented in the Yao Race: Godslaying.]

[Hai Zhe has created an Epic.]

——Great God, a Sinner has forged an immortal Epic. Do you wish to proclaim his Epic through a Blessing?

[Yes] [No]

He chose Yes.

A series of subtitles appeared on the screen.

[Sinners' Sea Breaker has forged the civilization's first Epic. His name, along with this godslaying ballad, will be immortalized among the Yao Race.]

[For creating the first Epic, Hai Zhe has gained a large amount of renown.]

[He is a Sinner burdened by sin, a Godslayer of bloodthirsty ballads. He is the Yao Race's dark and wild ambition, and also the Yao Race's brave and sharp fangs.]

[Embodying both Sin and glory, Hai Zhe is writing a chapter of the Yao Race never seen before.]

[The Yao Race has given birth to the Epic "Abyssal Sinner".]

[This Epic grants all members of the Yao Race Knowledge +1, Damage +1, and Defense +1.]

[The emergence of the Epic has caused the Yao Race to worship you fanatically, greatly increasing their Faith.]

[The emergence of the Epic has increased the Yao Race's cohesion and creativity.]

Luh Yao looked and saw that an additional 430,000 Fire of Faith had been added to the top-right corner.

This not only replenished the 260,000 Faith consumed by firing the cannon earlier, but also left a surplus of 170,000.

The total Faith reserves reached 20.9 million.

Luh Yao looked at Hai Zhe.

'He may be a serious criminal, but this Sinner certainly has his areas of expertise.'

'Hai Zhe proved his worth through his actions.'

Luh Yao's perspective changed because of this.

'Things that Heroes aren't good at or suited for, a Sinner has no qualms about doing.'

'Who says only those who stand in the light can be called heroes?'

Luh Yao opened his music player and queued up the song "Lone Warrior" for Hai Zhe.
