Ling Jing Jing calls out from afar, summoning her companion.

Upon hearing her name being called, Ling Daing leaps and turns around.

Ling Lling, I'm here, she responds to the call.

Ling Ling, I'm here tending to the plants," she adds, gazing at Ling Jing Jing, in the distance, sensing a subtle change in her companion, though unable to articulate what exactly is different.

"Praise be to the great deity for stirring the winds of spiritual energy in this realm, fostering an abundance of life.

Praise be to life itself.

" Ling Jing Jing speaks to Ling Daing in the language of the sprites, delivering a long string of words.

If Suzi Han were present, she would hear the chorus of sprite calls and witness the translated bubbles of communication.

Ling Daing comprehend some of it while remaining puzzled by other parts.

Yet she gathers that Ling Jing Jing is extoing the deity and lauding this beautiful world.

Ling Ling Ling Ling, the deity is wonderful.

This place is marvelous.

Hei he he Ling Jing Jing circles around Ling Dawing incessantly sharing her insights about spiritual energy and the essence of faith which is crucial since Ling Dawing is the most astute sprite after her.

The wisdom she has gained imparted by the deity through divine language as equipped Ling Jing Jing with considerable knowledge.

This divine language is not merely a means of communication but also a bridge connecting to higher dimensional realms.

It encompasses the knowledge of the cosmos, insights about the blue planet, and teachings learned from the divine, transforming Jing Jing into a being of profound understanding.

She has discovered the purpose of her existence, to serve the deity wholeheartedly.

Ling Jing Jing aims to impart her knowledge, teaching her fellow sprites to believe in the deity, cherish the divine, spread faith, and build the divine kingdom.

This is what she perceives as a profound concern of the great deity.

Ling Dawing is the first companion she has chosen to enlighten.

"Here is your food," Ling Jing declares, retrieving a mound of rice balls from the circular space above her head.

Food she acquired from the special building, the divine culinary hall.

She extends the offering to Ling Daing.

Chapter 13.

The great undertaking of Ling.

Jing Jing devouring the sustenance bestowed by the divine.

One becomes wiser.

Ling Deaf Fuku accepted the rice balls, consuming them voraciously.

With each morsel ingested, he sensed a vibrant essence within his being, as if the colorful substances multiplied.

Ling Defuku possessed little interest in food, only driven by hunger.

He would not seek out sustenance unless compelled, especially not to consume so much at once.

His true passion lay in fulfilling the tasks assigned by the divine.

In the absence of such directives, he would wander and explore, gathering intriguing artifacts.

We can consume plenty.

There is ample food, and our bodies can withstand it.

Ling Jing Jing remarked, "Tune into your appetite.

Eat more.

Do not let that musclebound consume it all.

You must eat more to grow wiser.

" Ling Jing Jing urged, aware that the two companions required no encouragement to eat, while the second most astute Ling Duku, perhaps due to his intelligence, paid little heed to food.

He consumed sparingly, resulting in gradual growth.

Ling Dufuka nodded, though he did not comprehend the connection between consumption and wisdom.

However, since Jing Jing encouraged him to eat more, he obliged, especially upon realizing his capacity for such quantity.

Ling Jing Jing was a companion and would not harm him.

You, Ling Deuku, magnificent servant of the divine, first among the grand deities, must grow and become wiser to manage all the mundane affairs of this divine realm.

I, Ling Jing Jing, esteemed high priestess, shall instruct you in becoming a valuable spirit.

She declared passionately, her eyes shimmering with starlight.

I will impart essential knowledge on how to better serve the divine.

I shall teach you some tricks on utilizing spiritual energy for swift movements, allowing you to soar as I just did.

I will guide you on harnessing spiritual energy to create space and store items.

How foolish you are.

Can you not ponder a bit more? The time for collection had come to a close.

Another fierce battle ensued.

The opponents seemed increasingly formidable and the system granted players greater autonomy.

Midway through the engagement, the ghostly dolls entered a frenzied state, resulting in an upgrade of all affiliated cards, bolstering our combat power.

Before the system could intervene, the opposing deity was forced onto the field, severely wounded by the rampaging dolls.

In a surprising turn, the system granted Sue Xihan the opportunity to take the stage personally.

Her character had not learned any divine techniques, relying solely on abundant divine power and the advantage of nocturnal attacks to deliver the final blow effortlessly.

A wave of ordinary skills culminated in the elimination of the opposing outer deity, shattering their divine essence.

Data flashed upon the screen.

Players collection this time achieved a rating of exceptional.

You have acquired 10 dark divine stones, three fire divine stones, one divine grade blue crystal, one divine blood dragon tree, two divine grade mulberry trees of water cloud bamboo, 3 lbs of divine grade clay, 221 intermediate magic stones, 311 beginner magic stones, and 500 divine power points.

Players grasp divine arts in the midst of war, mastering level one intimidation, level one divine sweep, and level one war worship.

Esteemed Commander, following a series of victories, you have garnered a modest reputation in the expanse of the Star Sea universe.

Your combat prowess has increased, and your renown has instilled fear in various races.

Astonishing, Suzie Han gazed at the amassed resources, her heart and mind consumed by them.

She glanced at her personal space where she had previously gathered materials.

Three dark divine stones, three azure divine stones, seven aqua divine stones, 12 earth divine stones, one water elemental essence, 32 advanced magic stones, 100 intermediate magic stones, 10,282 basic magic stones, 19 black malberry trees, and 99 lbs of white corn.

After placing all the items into her personal space, she was pleased to find she had sufficient materials for constructing the elven well and the war altar.

"Thank you, dear system," she thought, grateful that the system had indeed allocated spoils according to her wishes.

Suzie Han clased her hands in prayer, feeling thankful for everything since her rebirth.

Her personal space was still warm from the recent activity, and she promptly located the buildings for purchase in the marketplace to commence construction.

With the deduction of materials and corresponding divine power, the construction began.

The war altar required 9 hours to complete, while the elven well would take 3 hours.

Within the divine realm, only one building could be constructed at a time.

So, Suzi Han cued her projects accordingly.

Upon opening the collection button, the system indicated that the next collection opportunity would be in approximately 6 hours.

After calculating the time, she set an alarm for 6 hours later, eagerly awaiting the next collection phase.

It was already past 6:00 in the evening.

Earlier, around 5, her stomach had growled several times.

Yet, she had been too engrossed in the fierce battle to heed her hunger, her mind solely focused on warfare.

She had to organize a myriad of intricate information and issue various combat commands.

What had begun as a turn-based card game had transformed into a complex endeavor.

With the systems assistance, Suzie Han was maturing rapidly, evolving into an exceptional commander capable of orchestrating battles from small skirmishes of dozens to grand campaigns involving thousands.

As she learned more, the system relinquished greater control, resulting in an everexpanding array of tasks for her to manage.

Once her collections were complete, she was eager to finalize the construction of her long-desired edififices.

In reality, her physical body was beginning to feel the pangs of hunger.

Her stomach now a hollow echo of its former self.

It was difficult to fathom that she, who had never been fond of gaming, had become captivated by such an extraordinary game, increasingly engrossed by it.

With the game running, Suzhon strolled to the snack cabinet and retrieved a bottle of yogurt, savoring it slowly to soothe her weary nerves.

Since the game commenced, her life had been remarkably fulfilling.

From 8:00 last night until now, she had hardly paused, either gathering resources or waiting for the next collection opportunity.

While setting the alarm, Suzhon refrained from controlling her character, instead fixing the game screen on the smart device at her desk, launching the game on her computer to let it run idly.

Upon her return with the yogurt, she observed the character lying motionless on the bed in the chamber behind the temple, fast asleep.

The gentle rise and fall of the figure indicated slumber with a whimsical zz floating above.

Goodness, she had not slept at all.

Yet, this character was indulging in sloth.

Why waste time sleeping when there would be ample opportunities for rest in the future? Suzihan doubleclicked the character, causing the speech bubble above its head to vanish, prompting the figure to awaken, rubbing its eyes and gazing blankly at her as though she were an oddity.

For reasons unbeknownst to her, a twinge of guilt welled up within Suzie Han.

Perhaps it was the character's overly humanlike behavior that elicited such feelings.
