"The battle of faith."

"Belief!"

Su Mo suddenly opened his eyes and broke into a cold sweat.

In a world where magic is respected, people forget the true purpose of entering the world while pursuing virtual power.

Whether it's talent or magic, these are actually means of accumulating faith.

In the end, what all parties are competing for is faith, not the so-called magic, not a battle of skills!

Soma stood up and opened the window.

Compared with half a month ago, the Fire Fist tribe is much larger now, and several new shacks have been built.

The assigned slaves were also very conscious, rushing to work every day and digging back a lot of radiation mines.

Do these people have faith?

Probably not.

Not to mention them, perhaps even the priest Thomas still has not yet implemented the concept of 'god'.

The degree of their belief should be the degree of firmness in their own beliefs.

Once faith collapses, so does faith!

And if we want to engage in a battle of faith, how can it be enough to just rely on this spontaneous belief?

"Fortunately, fortunately it's not too late to realize this."

Sumo let out a long sigh of relief.

He was extremely lucky that it was not too late to find a solution.

Wow!

It's late at night again.

A simple gray divine light fell from the sky, pouring on Thomas, leaving a rune mark.

Compared with the miracle of being promoted from the second level to the third level, the promotion from the third level to the fourth level seems much more ordinary.

Not only is there no special reward like "Going to the Mortal Level", but even the benefits of low-level divine spells have come to an end.

Thomas briefly tested it and found that the speed of the Fire Fist technique was slightly increased again, but the power was only increased by less than 20%.

Although it is enough to dominate the surrounding tribes, compared with the veteran fourth-level priests of the same level, it is definitely not enough!

There's no way around it.

In addition to divine magic, low-level priests sometimes also need close combat, and there are often situations where priests are overturned in the hands of mortals.

But when a priest reaches a high level, his combat power sources have already become comprehensive.

Not only physical fitness is very important.

Powerful attack magic, special magic that can make the final decision, and unknown secret rituals.

These are the true heritage of the priest.

This is the fundamental reason why those low-serial number cracks can still suppress high-serial number cracks to this day.

"Clan leader, I have been promoted to level four!"

Before dawn, Thomas stood in front of Somo's shack wearing a long coat, waiting for Somo to get up and open the door to report as soon as possible.

"Priest Thomas, you don't have to be like this. I believe you."

Before Somo finished speaking, he saw Thomas stubbornly shaking his head.

"Patriarch, there is no need to say such words in the future. Thomas is where he is today, all thanks to the patriarch."

"If I forget my roots, won't I deviate from my original intention of becoming a priest?"

Thomas said it very seriously.

Just like these days, no matter what the occasion, he would always talk about Soma, the patriarch.

So much so that the new slaves are wondering why the priests of the Fire Fist Tribe respect a mortal leader so much, which is completely inconsistent with their understanding of the tribal structure.

"If you think so, I won't stop you, but I happen to have something to tell you!"

Somo smiled and nodded, motioning for Thomas to follow him into the room.

Compared with the past few days, there is a bit more scholarly atmosphere in the patriarch's shack today.

One after another, thick and simple books were piled in the corner, occupying nearly a quarter of the room.

However, after entering the house, Thomas' attention was not on these books, but on the "ornaments" on the large work table.

"Chief, what is this?"

Thomas narrowed his eyes slightly. Figure ornaments were not common in the wasteland, especially this ornament looked unusual.

Moreover, using his magical talent, he could vaguely sense that this ornament contained a special power.

Although it is weak, it is inextricably linked to divine magic.

"This is God's reward!"

Sumo's face didn't turn red, his heart didn't beat, and he said loudly.

"Same as the divine spell given to you before, this is a reward given to our Fire Fist tribe by the 'Big Rock' god!"

"What?"

Thomas was shocked, a trace of astonishment flashed across his face.

"I said, this is the reward given to our Fire Fist tribe by the 'Big Rock' god!"

Somo repeated it again.

Although he had already guessed that it would be difficult to implement a named god, Thomas' reaction exceeded his previous expectations.

"The Stone God?"

Thomas swallowed his saliva and suddenly looked nervous.

There are 112 radiation cracks. Except for the gods that the snow bandits believe in have names and surnames, the beliefs of other tribes are just unified 'gods'.

This ‘god’ has no name, no surname, no roots, no bottom, and no aspirations.

Many people once wanted to give him a name and build a shrine, but in the end they all ended up with the same result.

Faith collapses and talent disappears.

The tribe was in civil strife, and everything disappeared in the long river of history.

"Clan leader, you...haven't you been deceived by the snow bandits?"

Cold sweat dripped down Thomas's forehead, and he glanced cautiously at Somo standing in front of the table.

Not only was he worried that speaking so frankly would hurt Somo's self-esteem, but he was also worried that he had not warned him in place and the Fire Fist tribe would be deceived by the snow bandits.

Once you believe in these wild gods, you will insult the true God and be punished by the gods.

The great development situation of the Fire Fist Tribe may completely collapse in an instant.

And even he, a fourth-level priest, would lose his talent in an instant and become a mortal.
