Ding! Congratulations, Host, on activating the [Evil Temple Incense System]. Current form: [Clay Idol].
From the start, your own grandfather buried you alive as a sacrificial offering and sealed you inside a statue. All he wanted was to get rich?
[Extreme greed detected in incense offerings. Divine power +999!]
So you want to get rich? (The statue grins.)
Your wish is my command! Even if the whole village dies, I’ll make you rich beyond your wildest dreams... the kind of rich you get underground.
[Divine mission issued]: Twist the wishes of believers.
A believer prays to be “as beautiful as a goddess”? -> Grant them [Painted Skin], at the cost of having to eat raw meat every day!
A believer prays to “win every bet”? -> Grant them [Ghost Hand], so every win is paid out in hell money!
As the incense offerings skyrocket, Lin Yan stares at his status screen, lost in thought:
Powers: [Skinning Art], [Paper Doll Soldiers], [Ghost Soldiers Marching the Mortal Realm]...
Wait, I just wanted to be a proper god. Why is this System full of underworld abilities?!
(Lin Yan sits on his altar, looking down at all living things.)
“Stop kowtowing. If you bow one more time, your life won’t belong to you anymore.”
Everyone cries out in terror: “This god... he really does eat people!”
It feels pretty good that Dark Civilization is not the Holy Mother. Holy Mother Don't Look is very dark. I looked at 20 photos and there was no trace of light.
