"Magic never participates in our feasts. I think Technology probably won't participate either..." The Goddess of Music's expression was quite casual. "Deities like them are ultimately different from us."
"...But..." The Goddess of Art seemed somewhat conflicted, not knowing how to say it. After being dazed for a good while, she finally spoke. "Just now I saw the Magic Net update again. It added two new features, 'Reading' and 'Writing.' The Goddess of Writing reached a cooperation with them."
Hearing this, the Goddess of Music was immediately stunned. Everyone could see that his heart seemed disturbed for an instant, but he quickly forcibly suppressed it. "So what? The Magic Net can only transmit text. It has nothing to do with you and me."
The Goddess of Art seemed to want to say something more but didn't know how to say it. The God of Strife beside her suddenly spoke. "Text can also become art. Different arrangements and combinations of different characters can also become art. What do you think, Goddess of Art?"
"..." The Goddess of Art really wanted to say that was indeed the case, but she also worried about embarrassing the feast's host.
Seeing the Goddess of Art not speaking, the God of Strife continued. "Honestly, I still really like Technology's Magic Net. Every day, countless people create strife on it. Even if they don't provide me with faith power, I still really like that flavor."
"So you all use the Magic Net?" The Goddess of Music took a deep breath to make himself more peaceful. The melodies around him seemed to change imperceptibly. He directly changed the subject.
"I just had a holy spirit activate it to take a look."
"I was just curious what kind of being the new deity was."
"My cleric sacrificed it to me. I didn't know, so I just casually used it!"
The surrounding major and minor deities almost instantly stated the excuses they'd already prepared.
Activating the Magic Net required praying to the Goddess of Magic and God of Technology. As deities, doing such a thing was somewhat... anyway, they didn't really want others to know. But after this exchange, they suddenly discovered that almost everyone present was actually using the Magic Net.
"Um, since the God of Technology can add special features for the Goddess of Writing on the Magic Net, I wonder if he could also add some features for us?"
"I think that's just wishful thinking. The Goddess of Writing just happened to be compatible. How are we compatible? Having believers use the Magic Net to strengthen communication is the biggest use."
"I used rules to make a prophecy and discovered that in the future, the Magic Net won't only be able to transmit text—images and sound will also be possible. Plus, it won't take long to achieve. I think this might have huge benefits for quite a few of us."
A perfectly good feast—suddenly, the deities completely snuffed out their previous topics and began discussing one by one whether the Magic Net had any benefits for themselves, or for some among them.
Some even used the power of rules to peek at a corner of the future, believing that if they couldn't cooperate with the God of Technology, they'd be abandoned by the new era. Of course, quite a few deities also felt this was nonsense, believing the Goddess of Writing just happened to catch the right moment.
But no matter what, everyone could detect the envy and jealousy in their tones.
Especially some deities who had past conflicts with the Goddess of Writing, like the Goddess of Music.
The Goddess of Magic's divine realm.
Ren had no idea this matter had stirred up such huge waves in the mortal realm and divine realm. After releasing the "Writing" and "Reading" features, he focused his attention on the "magic power cannon."
"Lord Ren, didn't you say you had a way to teach those Goddess of Writing believers to write better, more suitable books for the Magic Net? How come you're back to researching magic power cannons? Do you feel there's still something lacking, or is the Goddess of Writing..."
"Right now it's mainly just some magicians using the Magic Net. What's the rush? After these current books are mostly digested, I'll teach them then."
Ren didn't even look up and casually said a sentence, his gaze still resting on the magic power railgun.
With the King of Creation's authority, manufacturing the magic power railgun he'd simulated in the virtual divine realm in reality wasn't very difficult. It could even be said that as long as the materials were complete, the entire process was very simple.
In just this short time, it was already assembled.
"Lord Ren, how come it doesn't look as cool as in the virtual divine realm? What about the lighting effects? How about I help you inscribe them? I'm very familiar with luminous runes. I guarantee I can make it produce effects similar to those in the virtual divine realm..."
The book looked at a six-rail magic power railgun that looked angular and very handsome. Originally it wanted to flatter him, but when the words reached its mouth, it discovered that this railgun, compared to the one in the virtual divine realm, lacked some charm. Without thinking it through, it immediately started talking endlessly.
"Not needed!" Ren directly cut off the book's voice. "Go continue making 'Quest Board.' If not, go online and chat with netizens. Don't disturb us!"
"Quest Board?!"
"It's the bounty feature I told you about a few days ago, letting users accept tasks themselves and such. Hurry up and go!"
"Betty, look, my plan is still simpler, more efficient, and lower cost, right?" Ren quickly fully assembled the magic power railgun. "Using this as mid-tier combat power is just right. And that kind you built that can release high-level magic—those magic power cannons should be used for some high-end battlefields."
Finally, Betty, who'd been silent on the side, shifted her gaze over.
Magic power bombs, ray guns, and the magic power cannons she'd developed that could release high-level magic—although they were different from traditional magical items, at their core they were still magic. It was just using a completely new way of thinking to transform magic into items anyone could use.
But the magic power railgun was different. This time, magic power was just used as an auxiliary "material." If they could find other things that could propel cannonballs, they could similarly unleash powerful force.
Precisely because of this, Betty had never been too willing to accept it.
She felt that following the old method, she could still find very excellent solutions and still reach the level Ren wanted.
But after trying for this period of time, she had indeed optimized some solutions, but they couldn't satisfy her. Now Ren had actually completed the other solution...
Loading a conical cannonball similar to those from his past life into the railgun, pressing the button, the energy storage module began supplying magic power, charging...
BANG—
With a huge boom, the cannonball shot out fiercely, even bringing waves of air-splitting sounds, as if it could tear through the air.
The instant that cannonball landed on the ground, a familiar flame vortex appeared, which also made Betty freeze.
