Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 861 - 786: Lost
"Splash!"
Just hearing the sound of the fishing rod pulling out of the water, you know it’s a fish over five pounds!
Jiang Yuan continued folding paper without even lifting his head;
Chuci was so excited he howled a string of calls.
For the first time in his life, he had caught such a big fish with his own hands, he almost jumped for joy, but was also afraid of celebrating too soon and losing the big fish, so he had to restrain his excitement and reel it in.
At that moment, he regretted choosing such a remote location, where no other fishing buddies could witness it!
Oh dear, what a misstep!
But who could have thought of that?
It’s a dream come true, actually being able to receive offerings and even borrow skills, this incense is so darn worth it!
"Hurry up, this buff only gives you fifteen minutes." Jiang Yuan watched him holding the big fish lovingly, reminding him: "Maybe you’ll catch an even bigger one."
"I swear, bro, you’re amazing!" Chuci quickly continued casting the rod while showering a variety of praises.
When people are excited, their thoughts become unusually active.
Looking at the fishing ground, which was originally a diversion of the river, he had a sudden inspiration, "Jiang? Jiang! Bro, you wouldn’t happen to be the River God, oh no, the Jiang God? Or the Water God?!"
Could really be, otherwise how could the fish bites be magically boosted? Who would believe this if it were told?
Jiang Yuan: ...
You’re overthinking it, more precisely, the believers are overthinking it.
Back then, by chance, I saved Lin Chunxi, and not sure how she’d imagined it, she even convinced her mother Qiao Mei to dedicate a Mountain God title to me.
Probably because they wholeheartedly believed, the system went along and gave a Mountain God title;
Over at Sand Hill City, after witnessing my fire manipulation skills firsthand, they insisted on building a Fire God temple.
The project seems quite grand, still not completed, not sure if there will be a title boost then;
Now, letting the first believer in the real world experience the fishing skill, they all associate it with the Water God. Why didn’t they say when I caught the demon last time, I used lightning, why couldn’t I be the Thunder God?
[Title acquired: Water God. Would you like to equip it?]
[God of Waters, Deity of Water. After equipping the title, Water Affinity +10; Water Manipulation Ability +10; Perception in any water +10, can upgrade consuming Faith Value]
Jiang Yuan: !!!
What? Are you serious?
He glanced at Chuci in shock, then looked at the system prompt, feeling very unreal.
Could he be dreaming?
The system had never intervened in the real world before, could the situation be urgent that even the system is going full force? How else would it start gathering believers in the real world?
"Another one! Hahahahaha..." Chuci’s heart was blooming with joy, tossing the hook back in the water, he turned around looking seriously at Jiang Yuan, saying: "Honestly, if the fishing buddies knew offering to you would get divine aid to catch big fish, you’d definitely have a huge, incredibly devoted follower base as a fishing Immortal!"
He paused, carefully observing the calm water, lowered his voice asking: "Bro, did you command the Water Ghost to hang these fish for me?"
"Not possible, just giving you a... good luck boost." Jiang Yuan laughed helplessly, reminding: "Remember to keep a low profile, don’t speak recklessly outside.
Also, although you can borrow skills temporarily from me, don’t wander around, save enough for emergencies when you need protection, don’t rush at any supernatural entities you see."
Chuci nodded like a chicken pecking at grains, "Mm-mm-mm, being able to protect myself is good, I’m not planning on being a Ghost Hunter, also afraid of interfering with random cause and effect causing trouble.
I’ll burn incense piously for you every day, maybe once in a while I’ll need to borrow a few minutes to fish, but I’ll save the rest for emergencies!
Haha... never again afraid of fishing by the water with a heebie-jeebie Water Ghost pestering me, having a big backer gives me guts, why would I fear it anymore?"
Jiang Yuan nodded in agreement, dealing with smart people is indeed effortless.
One stick of incense burned swiftly, just when the sixth big fish was caught, the fifteen-minute buff ended.
The incense burned down gradually extinguishing, the straight-up smoke stopped.
"Bro, can I burn another stick of incense, continue buffing to fish?" Chuci was left craving, taking out his phone to transfer funds.
A good quality incense stick costs ten thousand a piece, three sticks in one set, totally worth it!
Jiang Yuan opened the interface, glanced, quietly calculated.
The initial Faith Value was 3258, borrowing the most basic, lowest Faith Value-consuming fishing skill, fifteen minutes consumed 300 points; the three sticks of incense added another 100 Faith Value, current balance is 3058.
The system clearly marks, real-world believers can burn a maximum of three sticks per day, how much Faith Value can be converted depends on personal ability.
Even if Chuci burnt the remaining opportunity of two sticks all at once, it should only add 200 Faith Value. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"That’s enough for today, you’ve already experienced it, catching a few more fish isn’t worth it." Jiang Yuan advised: "It’s wiser to save more."
"Bro, I’ll buy all the incense you make from now on and burn it for you!"
Jiang Yuan: ...
Why does that sound so awkward?
"I’m very serious!" Chuci leaned over whispering: "Last time I had the opportunity to visit a city-level leader’s house, they have a dedicated master there for worship, the madam needs six cars following when she goes out, the master rides in the first and follows everywhere.
No matter where they go or what they do, the master must check the feng shui to ensure no issues. The madam’s every movement, meal, and drink are according to rituals, it’s said the books in their study are stuffed with Talisman Papers.
Then at their residence’s backyard, there’s a separate Buddhist building, inside incense burns twenty-four hours non-stop!
