The operation to save the town of Water went well.Bella established a channel to communicate with the water elemental plane, and set up pools at each major intersection.For an old monster like her, one more misstep is enough.Apart from the first two houses, there were no new victims.That's what Bella did.There is a shortage of water here, just ensure the water supply here.With the source of life, the rest is up to the residents here - including humans and non-humans - themselves.

Kelly et al were in charge of publicity.They walked the streets telling people that Water had a modern water supply (fog).The desperate people had obviously given up hope, but still dragged their thirsty bodies out of the house.They are lucky.They were rescued.

With water, people have vitality.After a little relief, the people here began to prepare for the sacrifice.Seeing this group of weak people, busy like chicken blood, preparing to sacrifice all the gods once, or even several times, Bella felt very strange.These people's belief in the gods is higher than their own lives.

"Really, there's nothing wrong with it..." Kevin complained.The only one who heard him complain was Bella.Like Bella who became a princess, Kevin's family background is very good, and he is usually safe from disasters.In his opinion, offering sacrifices and the like are just like holidays, when everyone gets together to have fun.The only difference is that on holidays, merchants come up with various marketing methods to earn money from customers.Sacrifice is a clever name for the temple to exploit the common people.He never thought that under such circumstances, ordinary people would spontaneously sacrifice to the gods.He couldn't understand this spirit. Everyone else was a devout believer of the gods, so he could only go to Bella to complain.

"Why? Are you still interested in that sacrifice?" Bella asked with a smile when she heard Kevin's dissatisfaction.

Hearing this, Kevin shuddered and shook his head violently.What are those sacrifices?To sacrifice to the gods, it is natural to take the best things.These people who are unable to escape and can only stay here waiting to die, what good things can they have.Black bread with a high sand content, vegetable leaves with worms, roasted meat with charred outside and raw inside, salt mixed with stones... It’s not that the common people are disrespectful to the gods. In fact, they haven’t seen any good things. Speaking of which, these are excellent.Thinking that the gods usually eat and use these things, Kevin suddenly sympathized with the so-called "god".

"Actually, God's days are quite pitiful. In other words, the gods cursed this place, it's not because the sacrifices are too bad." Kevin said embarrassingly.In modern times, even beggars don't want this stuff! →_→Dear, modern beggars, quite a few of them are very rich...

"That can only show that the so-called sacrifices are not what the gods want at all." Bella said lightly, "Is there anything in human beings that is worth plotting by the gods above?"

"Body?" Kevin said, touching his chin.

"Illegal experiment? That's crazy Frankenstein." Bella said coldly.

"soul?"

"Evil necromancers take souls," Bella said.

Kevin said two unreliable possibilities, but Bella satirized both of them.He touched his chin and said, "Could it be, the power of faith?"

"The power of faith?" Bella was puzzled.

"Isn't it always written like this in fantasy novels?" Kevin said, "The power of faith can be transformed into magic power, gather luck, and eliminate cause and effect. Anyway, it's against the sky."

"Faith... Faith... That is indeed a powerful force. Faith is immortal, faith is endless... But, if it is so powerful, why are the saints of the heavens..." Bella finally muttered to herself, and she couldn't hear clearly.

"What? Why what?" Kevin asked.

"Why is it not used by anyone, or even known?" Bella said.

"Hey, that's just a story in a novel." Kevin hurriedly stopped Bella.

"The world of fiction can also be real," Bella said.

Kevin resolutely opposes this unreliable statement: "...seek pictures to seek the truth."

"At least, Lu Xiaofeng, Huanzhu, Twilight, HP, Lotus Lantern, these worlds all exist." Bella said sullenly.She doesn't think these things are shameful, but it's okay not to mention the experience.

"You...you won't?" Kevin stared at Bella in surprise for a long time, and then said, "I almost dated an ancestor-level girl..."

"You don't need to be an ancestor, just call me grandma." Bella smiled kindly.

Kevin was blessed to his heart and cleverly changed the subject.He said: "Didn't you just talk about the power of faith? Where did you say it? Oh, about...the reason why the power of faith has not been popularized, let me think about it... There seem to be several theories. It needs a godhead, so only gods can use it. And...well, it seems that you say 'faith is poison', it can be addictive, and it will backfire." He thought for a while and said, "Either no one knows, only the protagonist Discovery, or it means that everyone uses it, but the protagonist doesn't care about it... probably that's it. Do you think this is useful?" Finally, he still asked uncertainly.

"There is always a reference value for brainstorming." Bella said casually.What she's thinking about now is the immortals of Jiejiao who were enshrined as gods. When she interacted with those people, she never brought up the painful topic of "Shinto", and she still has some understanding of their behavior.Although they never thought that the gods in this world were like gods, they raised loyal believers, and they still cared very much about incense in the world.Immortals can live without drinking or eating, so what's the use of this earthly incense?Ever since they were listed on the list of gods, their cultivation base has never improved, and with their power, how can they maintain the order of all things in the world?They have never worried about mana.Perhaps, they really used the so-called "incense on earth", which is the "power of faith" that Kevin said, to support the priesthood.As for the so-called "Godhead", it should be given by the Conferred God List, allowing them to use the power of faith.Similarly, the list of gods also restricts them, preventing them from refining the power of faith, avoiding corruption, and even doing wrong things for the faith of the world.

Bella thinks about the problem by herself, and inevitably neglects Kevin.The latter wished that others would ignore him.He knew very well that the "ancestor" he casually mentioned had such lethal power.Just when Kevin was hesitating whether to run away, someone came over again.

"You guys, what are you sneaking about again?" Donna asked with her hips akimbo.

"We~" Kevin said with a smile, "Let's discuss how to make Donna gentle and stop beating people~" After speaking, he hugged his head and ran away.

By the time Donna realized it, Kevin had already disappeared.She stamped her feet, turned her head to look at Bella, she no longer looked like a tigress.She smiled politely and said, "The sacrifice will start tomorrow morning, starting with the main god here, the goddess of water. Don't be too late." In the eyes of the world, sacrifice is a great god that cannot be missed.Unless he was paralyzed on the bed and was about to die, he had no choice but to come.

"I see, thanks for letting me know." Bella said.She already knew people's enthusiasm for the gods, so of course she wouldn't intentionally sing a different tune and ask for trouble.

"Then I'll go first." Donna said with a smile.Not to mention that she has already seen that there is nothing between Kevin and Bella, even if Kevin really finds another woman, she will not really do anything.Based on Kevin's qualifications, he is destined to be a strong one in the future, and the strong is destined to get more than others.Donna had long been prepared to share with other women what a man's awakening is—and that's what every native woman in this world is awakened to.However, for Donna, that day naturally came as late as possible.Since Kevin didn't explicitly express his dislike, let's just take it as fun.

"Hey, it's your turn, come out." Bella said lightly.She was used to talking with Kevin, and after dismissing Donna, she faced Pluto's beautiful face.

Sure enough, Pluto appeared.

"Tell me, what is the reason today?" Bella said.

"I just came to ask, what clothes are you going to wear tomorrow?" Pluto looked like an all-round housekeeper.

Bella was silent.According to regulations, to participate in the sacrifice, you must wear formal attire.Commoners wear their best clothes.A person of status like Bella must dress in accordance with his status.So, she had two choices, Cecilia's princess dress, or the magister's dress robe.Combat professionals, each level has specific clothing, including daily clothing, combat attire, and dresses. It sounds a lot of attention, but it’s actually not that troublesome. Think about home clothing, sportswear, and evening gowns on weekdays. It is understandable.Bella's advanced magister's time is still short, and I haven't had time to buy it yet.As for the princess in formal attire, which person who escaped from marriage and lost his family would bring such a burden?

Fortunately, Bella used to be an atheist, but later her world view was overturned, and she admitted the existence of various non-human beings, but still did not believe in gods."Just find something neat," she said.

"It is a great sin to deceive God," said Pluto disapprovingly.

"Isn't it slandering God?" Bella said casually.Even more disrespectful, she also did it, a piece of clothing, it's really no big deal.

"Okay, Bella, if you insist, but..." Pluto was suspiciously silent for a moment, and said awkwardly, "Even if it's clothes that don't match your status, you can't find a suitable one."

"How? I remember..." Bella paused, she was speechless.As a spoiled princess, of course she couldn't pack her wardrobe, so she only brought a few clothes with her.It was fine before, but when she entered the Milanco area, water resources were scarce, so of course she couldn't do laundry.And here, she has been busy with disaster relief.No time to do laundry.As a result, it was hard to find clean clothes for her.In fact, even if there is no sacrifice, Bella will have to worry about clothes in two days.

"So, what good advice do you have?" Bella said hopelessly.Perhaps, she should go to do the laundry now.As a water mage, it is not difficult to make wet clothes dry quickly.It's a pity that the magic of the HP system conflicts with the laws here.Transfiguration or something, how convenient it is. →_→So, if you have Transfiguration, can you wear clothes made from rotten leaves, scraps of paper, and bricks without stress?

"If you don't mind, I can prepare sacrificial clothes for you." Pluto smiled just right.

She thought about her clothes secretly, and found that even if they were all clean and tidy, they could only make her not lose face. Bella nodded and said, "Then I will trouble you."

"My honor." Pluto smiled reservedly, with a bit of gentleness.

Bella looked at him and said, "Have you been reading butler novels lately?"

"Yes, it's just that the protagonists of the story are the butler and the noble young master." Pluto frowned, showing some doubts rarely.

"Why, rare?" Bella asked.Settlement is not "true love". It's not uncommon for the rich second generation and the second generation of officials to play with men, right?Comparing some behaviors of the ancient Chinese dynasty, Bella couldn't understand Pluto's doubts.

"Same-sex love is an unforgivable felony in the teachings of many gods," Pluto said.The gods here are not the imagination of the world. They have their own preferences for the stone statues sitting in the temple.According to their own preferences, they set a lot of rules for the believers, and the believers sorted it out, and then added ideas, ideals, stories and legends, etc., to become doctrines.

Bella, who had only memorized the teachings of the Dark God and was still dealing with errands, was silent for a while, then said quietly, "This is why you were not regarded as a rival in love by Donna despite being prettier than women? Enthusiastic, then nothing - Lambert said something to him."
