[Farming + ensemble cast + Western fantasy lord + behind-the-scenes mastermind]
My name is Li Tianye, and I’m a university history student.
I transmigrated to another world. I didn’t become a hero. I became a god.
But my true form is a broken stone, and my only believer is a white-haired village girl who’s about to be beheaded.
If she dies, I die too.
Fortunately, I discovered that I can grant my followers the power of [Heroic Spirits].
So what are we waiting for?
Have you ever seen a white-haired little girl with the combined abilities of Zhao Yun, Zhuge Liang, and Bismarck... I mean, a humanoid Gundam?
The village is full of the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled from the start?
No problem. We’ll lie low and build up our strength, then raise an army!
Together with my followers, I’ll make cement, produce gunpowder, and advance technology, transforming a tiny village into a human empire, one step at a time!
The world is full of suffering? The nobles are greedy? The Church is hypocritical? The gods look down on everyone?
Times have changed. They can all eat bullets!
Sitting in the great hall, I looked at the ranks of riflemen armed to the teeth and spread my hands helplessly.
“I’m just a false god, granting a few Heroic Spirit abilities and starting an Industrial Revolution so I can blast you real gods off your thrones... That’s perfectly reasonable, right?”
(Note: Somewhat technical. The early story focuses on surviving under pressure in a village; later it shifts to a standard tale of a lord’s rise and a struggle against the gods. The characters are intelligent, and there are no brainless power fantasies.)
