Chapter 19 Knowledge Points, Reward Mechanism
Peter was helpless about what happened to Lena's family.
After all, this kind of thing is not uncommon in Greenport. Goblins are inherently a money-grubbing and fickle race. In particular, the guy named Cunning Shadow Gravel that the Mason Brotherhood met is the most unrestricted broker among the goblins.
Goblin brokers often have their own channels, helping to bridge the gap between the entrusting party and the entrusted party, and making money on both sides by collecting both commissions and commissions.
When taking over the work at hand, they will definitely try every means to deduct or reduce it, or else they will put it off as long as possible and find various excuses to delay time. Being owed money is one of the most common qualities of goblins.
What’s even more troublesome is that brokers often have no fixed place of residence. They can move to another place once they get the money. After getting the money, they will probably charter a goblin airship for the nearest time and go to another place in Prentiss continent for vacation and shelter from the wind. To prevent creditors from coming to collect debts.
Cunning Shadow Rubble is the best among the shameless goblin brokers, because he has done even more unlimited things:
Instead of hiding from the limelight, he hired Dursley to be his thug, intending to squander the large sum of money "honestly".
If the troubles in Lena's family want to be solved, the key to the problem naturally falls on Dursley and his Bloodfang Gang.
If you don't deal with the Bloody Fang Gang, you won't be able to ask Cunning Shadow for money.
The Bloodfang Gang is not as vulnerable as the gangsters that Peter defeated. They have their own territory and support several professionals. In terms of force and financial resources, they are not comparable to the Masons Brotherhood.
If we want to face the Blood Fang Gang head-on, Pett alone will definitely not be enough.
Level 3 spells with powerful group power, such as [Hadar's Hunger], can pose a life threat to the professionals of the Blood Fang Gang. But the problem is that that kind of spell can be used to destroy monsters such as followers of the evil god, but it is forbidden to use it on normal intelligent races in Greenport.
If you really want to use it on the people of the Blood Fang Gang, there is a high probability that someone will die.
Not only would he be in a fight with the Bloodfang Gang, but he would also be wanted by Greenport.
Pet came to Green Harbor with the intention of becoming a level 3 mage to prove that he only had one gold coin per month for living expenses. He was not here to risk his life!
Peter: Although I sympathize, I don't want to get involved. It's just not worth it to me.
Novin: No, you think!
……
Novin has been using the [God's Eye] to observe simultaneously through Pet's perspective. When he learned about Reina's experience, he immediately realized that he had an opportunity to preach and gain new believers.
What does Reyna and her father’s Masonic fraternity lack most right now?
Strength!
Are they unable to do anything due to Dursley's harassment? Is it because ordinary people have no means of resistance in front of professionals?
The way to break the situation is very simple.
As long as the Mason Brotherhood can have a sufficient number of professionals, the threat of the Blood Fang Gang can naturally be solved!
Noven said that he was very familiar with it!
In order to give Peter the motivation to spread the "gospel of the God of Knowledge" to Lena, while the two of them were drinking in the tavern, Novin in the Kingdom of God was not idle either.
Combining the information he had previously discovered about the consumption of clerical authority, Novin decided to launch a simple "reward system" to operate among the believers at this stage.
Novin does not intend to be the nanny of his believers. If the believers really have to pray to him for answers to everything they encounter, no matter how small the consumption of Novin's divine power is, they will not be able to withstand the consumption of a huge number of prayers.
When Pet was the only believer, Noven had no choice. If he didn't help him, he would lose the source of his divine power.
But when the number of believers increases with the mission, the meticulous care will not make the believers cherish it more, and most people will take it for granted.
By using a suitable mechanism to reward the god's power, believers can be properly motivated. According to Novin's design, whether believers want to seek knowledge about spells, combat techniques, or information about something, etc. from him, they will need to pay varying amounts of [Knowledge Points].
Want to become stronger? Want to solve a problem?
Novan can do it, but believers need to work hard to earn points first, instead of directly relying on equal gods to help!
The effect of the [Knowledge Points] mechanism is immediate:
After receiving the oracle, Peter decisively changed his mind about standing aside and watching what happened to Lena after learning about Novin's "Rules of Faith"!
He has already tasted the huge benefits brought by faith in Novin!
The God of Knowledge can teach him the level 3 spells that have troubled him for a long time;
The God of Knowledge can also teach him level 1 spells that give him actual combat capabilities, and they are easier to use than the goddess of magic. The one used by believers is more convenient and easier to use!
No need to humbly ask the magic network to respond, there is no constipation-like spell slot restriction!
As long as his spirit can hold on, he can enjoy the thrill of a true professional's battle like a spell fort!
If he told Peter now that he would no longer be able to use these things and would go back to the miserable days of believing in the goddess of magic, he felt that he would definitely go crazy.
Pet even felt that the power of Norven, the god of knowledge, was simply the temptation of the legendary evil god.
Mortals clearly know that belief in evil gods will have serious consequences, but they just can't resist the temptation! Because it is so tempting, once you get into it, you simply can’t quit it, and you will willingly lead to depravity!
In short, if he wants to continue to enjoy the various benefits of believing in Novan, he must work hard to earn more [Knowledge Points].
As long as he preaches to Rena and finds a way to get her to offer her faith to the God of Knowledge, it's not like he has to fight the Blood Fang Gang right now. What's the difference between these 5 knowledge points and giving them away for free?
“Ahem!”
Peter cleared his throat and recalled the actions he had learned in the aristocratic etiquette class:
"Rena, please allow me to take up a moment of your time. I hope to introduce you to a great existence - Noven, the God of Knowledge!"
"If you are willing to offer your faith to the God of Knowledge and get His response, I think there will be a solution to the problems you encounter."
Reina blinked:
"God of knowledge, I seem to have never heard of this god?"
"It's normal that you haven't heard about it, because the God of Knowledge has just awakened from his long sleep. Not many people in the world still know his name, but as long as you devote your faith, his power can still help people who encounter difficulties. "
Peter directly relayed the "divine design" of Novin's vest previously.
"To tell you the truth, before you knew me, I was actually a parallel mage with no fighting ability at all. It was the God of Knowledge who taught me the true secrets of magic, so that I could become what you think of a great mage."
Suddenly learning that there was a god she had never heard of, and that as long as she believed in him, she could solve her troubles, which made Reina feel as if it was pie in the sky and unreal.
But looking at Peter's sincere look, Rena felt hope rise in her heart:
"I think, Mr. Pet, you helped us drive away those gangsters before, and you saved my life. You must not be a bad person, so... I am willing to believe you!"
"The God of Knowledge...what can I do to give Him my faith?"
