After hesitating for a long time, Li Yu gritted his teeth and said, “Everyone, kneel and offer our faith to the gods!”

He spoke, and everyone, including the leader of the knights, knelt and hit their heads on the ground.

Li Yu did the same, but he did not lower his head. He needed to see how the gods would react to his actions and whether they would show any disgust.

What made him sigh in relief was that the god did not seem disgusted, but neither did he seem joyful. The god was still looking at them.

The leader of the Knights secretly raised his head and reminded him softly, “Your Highness, we have only offered our own beliefs. There is no sacrifice to express our feelings, so we are unable to make the god happy and accept us. It is said that if this continues, the god will turn from neutral to disgust.”

Li Yu quickly asked, “Sacrifice? What kind of sacrifice is qualified?”

“I am not too sure, but I think that the rarer the sacrifice, the happier the god will be, and he will even build bridges with his believers.”

“Rarer the sacrifice?” Li Yu frowned slightly. He had been on the run, so he did not bring any other items with him.

The only thing that could be counted as rare was the world item passed down from generation to generation in the Bauhinia Kingdom, the Book of Wisdom. It was the nation’s treasure, but it had not had a new owner for more than a hundred years because it did not meet the conditions for it to recognize its master.

The Kingdom of Fire had been chasing after him all this time, and they were also eyeing this nation-protecting treasure.

The Book of Wisdom had been carried by Li Yu.

Could it be that the god was eyeing it?

Should they sacrifice it?

Li Yu did not hesitate for long. From the moment he had been able to live until now, it was all because the god had not killed him. There was no point in hiding it. Moreover, with his current ability, he could not take back the Bauhinia Kingdom.

The god would take care of their believers. Perhaps he would help him restore his kingdom.

Seeing Li Yu take out the nation’s most important treasure, the Book of Wisdom, the Knight leader was shocked. He could not help but say, “Prince, this is a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation in our Bauhinia kingdom. Are you going to sacrifice it?”

Li Yu nodded. “That’s right. I have thought it through. No matter how important the treasure is, even if we lose our lives, it will still belong to the Lord God. Even the 50,000 elites of the Kingdom of Fire were not a match for the Lord God. What else can we do?”

“Take the initiative to sacrifice and leave a good impression. You can also save everyone’s lives. I’m a prince. Listen to me.”

“This is for the sake of your lives.”

The members of the Knight Regiment did not say anything. However, Li Yu had heard his words and was even more loyal now.

Li Yu raised the Book of Wisdom above his head and, recalling the sacrificial books he had read before, said loudly, “Respected Lord God, as the heir of the Bauhinia Kingdom, I, Li Yu, am willing to become your follower. I will always spread your name and pray that the Lord God will accept the sacrifice of your followers. This is a world item, the Book of Wisdom.”

Everyone bowed again in unison with respectful expressions.

Luochuan had always been paying attention.

Seeing them turn around to communicate, he was very happy. This meant that these minions were intelligent.

However, it was difficult to understand their actions after that. First, they knelt on the ground and said something. Then, the leader of the minions and the minions behind them talked about something. Everyone knelt again.

This time, the leader of the minions held a small dot in his hand. Luochuan wanted to see what it was.

A voice sounded in the depths of his mind. “The heir of the Kingdom of Bauhinia, Li Yu, has brought the members of the Knights to pray to become your believers and sacrifice the world prop, the Book of Wisdom. Do you accept their faith?”

Luochuan’s eyes widened slightly, and his mind was shaken.

He was still researching how to communicate with the minions and obtain their faith. Who would have thought that they would sacrifice themselves first?

This saved him a lot of time and effort, and he did not need to use his brain.

The voice in his mind seemed to come from this world. The world had acknowledged Luochuan’s identity as a ‘God’ from a certain level, so it had this question as well.

There was definitely no choice for him to reject, so Luochuan said, “I agree.”

As soon as he finished speaking, golden light emitted from the bodies of the minions in his eyes. The golden light condensed into golden lines that extended all the way until they finally disappeared into the void.

However, Luo Chuan knew that they didn’t disappear. They had entered his mind, and he could feel them.

“I wonder what specific function does this faith have?”

In a moment of daze, the Book of Wisdom that Li Yu held in his hand also disappeared and appeared in the depths of Luo Chuan’s mind. Following that, it fused with his soul and rapidly expanded into a normal-sized book. Then, it appeared in his hand. The book shone with golden light and was engraved with unknown runes.

“Book of Wisdom!”

Luochuan looked at it and immediately understood what it was. At the same time, the runes on the book connected together and information was transmitted into the depths of his mind.

The description of the Book of World and information about its ability appeared.

“World Tool: Book of Wisdom.”

“Ability 1: Language interpretation. It can translate the language of any intelligent creature. At the same time, it can automatically collect information around its master.”

“Ability 2: Superhuman computing power. Based on the information collected, it can deduce the future and display the most likely future scene.”

“Ability 3: Light of wisdom. Holding it can increase wisdom and increase learning speed by a hundred times.”

…

“As expected of the Book of Wisdom. It’s so powerful.” Luochuan was shocked.

He had never expected that he would be able to obtain such a magical book after exploring the world behind the door. Its ability was not compromised. It was simply a godly item.

“Master.”

At this moment, the voice of the Book of Wisdom was heard. It had a consciousness, which was equivalent to an artificial intelligence. It listened to its master’s orders, but it also had its own logical judgment.

However, without Luochuan’s permission, it could not be conjured, and could only stay in the depths of Luochuan’s mind.

Moreover, the Book of Wisdom did not have any offensive abilities. Once it was conjured, it could be destroyed.

Luochuan directly asked, “What kind of existence do you belong to? How do you explain the world items? Are they something unique to your world?”

The updates from the news were already shocking enough. After coming to another world, there was actually an even more mystical treasure.

The Book of Wisdom explained, “I am a consciousness derived from the Book of Wisdom. Master can suppress the production of consciousness. I am an accessory.”

“World items are unique treasures of this world. They are nurtured by time. Each world item has an extraordinary and unique ability. It is enough to distort the balance of the world and reach beyond transcendence. It is considered the ultimate power.”

Luochuan blinked his eyes. He seemed to have come to the right place.
