Just as Luo Luo officially stepped into the realm of the Gods.
His father, Luo Zhiyuan, had already contacted his uncle, Luo Zhiyong, multiple times regarding the Luo family's head stationed at the border, Luo Zhenguo.
"Zhiyong, has anyone else seen the information on Xiao Luo?"
"No, father. I sealed it in the family archive the moment I received it."
"Very well. Tell the family that it is strictly prohibited to leak this information. Set it as a family S-level secret. Aside from the three of us present, no one else is allowed to access it."
"S-level? Isn't that a bit too high, Father?" Luo Zhiyong found it hard to believe, as S-level was the highest level of secrecy in the family.
"Too high? Zhiyong, you need to broaden your perspective." Luo Zhenguo looked at him with disappointment, feeling that the eldest son was always overly cautious.
"But—"
"Enough. Just do as I say. Also, elevate Xiao Luo's resources to the highest level. Zhiyuan, you handle this. As his father, you should know what he needs. The family will provide full support. In another six months, my time stationed here will be up. Before that, we must seal off any information and protect Xiao Luo. He shouldn't attend an outside school anymore; he will study in our family academy."
Although Luo Zhiyong didn't fully understand what made Luo Luo so special, he could sense his father's emphasis on Luo Luo and quickly replied, "Understood, Father. I will arrange for Luo You to take care of them."
"That's good to hear. Of course, we must value Luo Luo. Other talented younger generations should also join the family academy. Whether it's one or a group, Luo You can handle them all."
After discussing the fate of the younger generation, Luo Zhenguo assigned some family matters.
After receiving the command, Luo Zhiyun and his excited younger brother ended the magical image transmission.
Luo Zhenguo looked at the registration information for Luo Luo and revealed a smug smile.
"This little brat is still hiding his talents." Your grandfather has walked more paths than you have eaten rice.
The patriarch of the Luo family, Luo Zhenguo, held the divine title of the Earth Dragon God, a mid-level existence among the divine titles of races. His growth to a 9th-tier true god was due to a significant opportunity. During an adventure in a foreign realm, he had the fortune to learn fragments of information about the Life Goddess's divine title. This bore similarities to Luo Luo's information. Such powerful divine titles must come with numerous restrictions, yet Luo Luo had not revealed them to Luo Zhiyong. It seemed the information he concealed either had significant implications or contained fatal flaws.
"This little brat is truly clever. Well, that's good. People who are too ostentatious rarely have good outcomes. After all, those who haven't matured into true talents aren't considered talents at all."
Moreover, he had never seen such a peculiar divine title, divine power, and faith race during the over two hundred years of Luo Luo's cultivation.
"I hope you can change the declining trend of the Earth source civilization."
Luo Luo was busy arranging robots to happily mine in his divine realm, unaware that within just a few minutes, the family had decided to allocate resources to him.
However, knowing wouldn't help; the resources provided by the family would only be usable once he became a demigod, and most items given to him would be a waste. What he really lacked were some ordinary resource-type supplies.
After becoming a preparatory god, Luo Luo did not experience any significant changes; he was just a bit more spirited.
But over time, the changes in his divine realm were quite substantial. The robots worked tirelessly, bringing him the first benefit: they could quickly explore resources, allowing him to thoroughly investigate the 150-square-kilometer area of his divine realm as soon as possible.
Aside from the faith race awakened during his awakening, there was no danger in the initial divine realm, only some harmless small animals, fish, and shrimp that provided food for the faith race to sustain their normal lives.
The next day, when Luo Luo woke up, he checked the progress. The robots had explored all the land in the divine realm.
A series of notification sounds chimed in.
"Ding, your subjects have discovered a small iron mine."
"Ding, your subjects have discovered a small gold mine."
"Ding, your subjects are mining iron ore."
"Ding, you have obtained 20 units of iron ore."
The metals required for the fully automated robot factory's production had already been gathered. Although the quantities were small, given the factory's efficiency, it would be more than sufficient until Luo Luo became a demigod. By that time, he wouldn't have to worry about resources.
Otherwise, how could they say Luo Luo is the child of fortune? His initial divine realm included so many rare metals; this was indeed extremely rare.
Of course, from a normal perspective, handing Luo Luo's divine realm to others would be considered poor. The resources of flora and fauna were very scarce, and there were hardly any fish in the water. For a normal faith race, even eating would be a significant problem. Many would likely starve before becoming demigods. With a decreasing population, faith would also diminish, severely dragging down their time to become demigods, and potentially causing catastrophic events like the extinction of the faith race. Gods facing such major issues often had to abandon the path to divinity, leaving their divine realms in silence. Before becoming a demigod, they couldn't use resource cards and could only gamble that their divine realm might eventually produce primordial faith races. But this method was very passive, requiring a great deal of luck. Historically, very few have managed to rise again after facing the extinction of their race.
Moreover, the initial faith races had no use for these rare metal mines, iron, or coal. Most gods waited until they reached the demigod stage to directly grant their faith races weapon cards. This saved a lot of time and allowed the faith races to possess relatively advanced weapons and equipment from the start, reducing losses and enhancing combat capabilities. Only at the true god stage would they consider the balance of races in their divine realm, promoting the status of agricultural, forging, and artistic faith races to start crafting a unique and closed civilization environment that could achieve self-sustenance.
Before reaching the true god stage, most would focus their energy on races capable of hunting and fishing for food and those with high combat strength.
This way, they could possess powerful combat abilities at the demigod stage to obtain more resources in preparation for becoming true gods. If they failed to become true gods, then the other arrangements for the gods would be in vain.
On the contrary, the robots of the mechanical race did not require food, so the barren food sources in Luo Luo's divine realm would not affect him. What he needed in this initial phase were various rare metals for manufacturing robots.
Everything was ready; it was time to start mining.
At the same time, he issued a daily full-capacity production task to the robot factory.
Luo Luo didn't need to worry about anything else.
To prevent faith collapse, the time ratio between the Earth source continent and the divine realm could only be 1:30 before becoming a demigod. This meant that for every day that passed in the Earth source continent, a month would pass in the divine realm. After tonight, Luo Luo's friends would also enter the preparatory god stage. From the looks of it, their gap wasn't that large.
However, to become a demigod, one needed a drop of divine power. This was a hundred times more than what was needed to become a preparatory god. Based on the calculation that his friends could obtain a thread of divine power each day, it would take a full three months for them to be promoted to demigods.
In contrast, Luo Luo would need less than three days—that's the gap.
