Item Name: Great Inventor Statue 

Effect: Placing this item in the divine realm continuously enhances the research attributes of the subjects. It leads to increased inspiration when creating items and slowly enhances the subjects' wisdom.

 

These items are completely different from those in the Earth source continent. Fortunately, the head of the Star Academy hasn't gone far; he immediately chased after to inquire about the origins of these items.

 

"The Goblin Scholar subject card was obtained by chance. The other four items were captured during our exploration of a different realm. The person in charge at that time thought that realm was very strange, and these items had attributes unlike ordinary ones, so he brought them back to the academy. Later experiments discovered that these items weren't of much help to our divine realm."

 

"If it weren't for noticing some similarities between your subjects and those strange creatures, I wouldn't have thought to give these items to you, as they're just old stockpile items."

 

Images of Luo Luo's divine battle with Sada were recorded by him using a camera. During the Earth Source Conference, they were shown as evidence, so everyone saw his unique race but did not know the specific attributes.

 

"Are there any more of these items? I feel this is a great opportunity for myself."

 

"It seems these items are indeed useful for you. There should still be some in the academy's warehouse. I'll go back and look for them."

 

"How much? How many do you have? I'll take however many you've got."

 

"Hey, why talk about money? Our students at Star Academy made such a big mistake; it's also our negligence. The fact that you didn't pursue the matter is already the greatest help to us. I can help you find all these small items and give them to you; I can decide on this minor issue."

 

"Thank you so much! I am not being pretentious; these items really are worthless in other's hands. What about that different realm?"

 

"I specifically checked that different realm when I came here. Its level is so low that it's not even worth being used as a trial site for a first-tier demigod. So, I left it there to thrive on its own. However, this realm only opens once every hundred years."

 

"Although you can stay inside for a year each time, hardly anyone wants to go there, so I'm not very clear on the specific situation. Let's do this: I'll go back and check for you. If it can still be accessed, I will inform you."

 

Upon hearing this, Luo Luo was overjoyed; an opportunity could come so easily: "Thank you so much!"

 

"No need to thank me; this is indeed a critical time for the Earth Source continent. We certainly hope that geniuses like you can grow quickly. An insignificant different realm isn't a big deal. I'll set off now; wait for my news within three days."

 

After saying this, the head of the Star Academy hurriedly began to return.

 

Despite having gone through a brutal divine battle, Luo Luo ultimately achieved a narrow victory.

 

Next, it was time for Luo Luo to absorb the fruits of his victory.

 

He now not only possessed a massive amount of energy stones but also received empty energy stones as compensation from the Council, along with those owned by the major trading company. Even after the major families learned of this, they began donating any unused empty energy stones from their family warehouses to Luo Luo.

 

Now, for Luo Luo, the reserves of energy stones were sufficient. The real bottleneck was that there were too few factories, and the energy charging speed couldn't keep up.

 

It truly was a bittersweet situation.

 

Luo Luo began planning for the center of his divine realm.

 

Of course, that wasn't the only benefit. The relics from Sada, along with the items sent by the Star Academy this time, would also be transformed into his combat power.

 

The first issue to address was the territorial problem that arose after annexing Sada's divine realm. As a 9th-tier demigod, Sada's divine realm was several times larger than Luo Luo's. After assimilating Sada's realm, these areas naturally connected with Luo Luo's divine realm. Just sending robots to explore all these places would take several days.

 

Additionally, there were many half-orcs to manage. After Sada's fall, some half-orcs became despondent, awaiting a new ruler. Among them, some shouted for revenge against Sada; these were fanatical believers of Sada, mostly priests or clan leaders from various races. Although they were old and frail, these individuals posed little threat to Luo Luo. However, if they were intent on destruction, they could still be quite troublesome.

 

Thinking of this, he decided to immediately arrange for industrial robots to begin dividing the unexplored divine realm into different areas based on terrain. One industrial robot would lead a portion of Luo Luo's subjects to take over and manage these areas. For those half-orcs who resisted discipline, he would execute them to demonstrate authority, while those who complied would receive the same supplies as Luo Luo's subjects.

 

After eliminating a batch of stubborn individuals and accepting a group of more agreeable half-orcs, Luo Luo's divine realm began to stabilize. These newly integrated areas also began to recover vitality and transform into modern towns.

 

Apart from the Eagle Race and the Behemoth Race having some utility for Luo Luo, he found little need for the combat power of other half-orcs. Instead, their strong physiques fulfilled the needs of his divine realm. He applied the Class Change Scroll for Workers to these muscular races, yielding even better results. The honest and simple characteristics of the worker class could effectively reduce the half-orcs' resistance to Luo Luo's rule. After some time of reproduction, they would completely let go of their past grudges. After all, the half-orcs who had been on the battlefield were almost all annihilated. The remaining subjects in the divine realm were mostly the seeds of the tribes—old, weak, sick, and disabled. They only knew that their Beast God had gone to war against another god and lost. Now they were ruled by the victorious god, but they didn't understand the specifics.

 

Therefore, besides those fanatics, the other half-orcs had a relatively low level of hatred toward Luo Luo.

 

Moreover, in the newly acquired divine realm, he discovered that there weren't just the few types of half-orcs from the battlefield; he also encountered relatively gentle cat people, rabbit people, fox people, and merfolk. Compared to other half-orcs, these races were more human-like, possessing some beastly traits; for example, the rabbit people differed from humans only by having a pair of rabbit ears, which made them look quite adorable.

 

These gentle half-orcs were originally part of the slave class within Sada's divine realm, providing labour for the stronger half-orc races, and they might even have been used as food. After Luo Luo integrated the new divine realm, they were among the most welcoming of his rule. After all, under Luo Luo's policy of racial integration, they received corresponding treatment, forming a stark contrast to their previous circumstances.

 

After gaining their loyalty, Luo Luo was astonished to find that these half-orcs had a very high level of faith; the vast majority reached the level of true believers, and even a small portion became fanatics, leading to a tremendous increase in the faith value he received daily.

 

Not only was the faith of the half-orcs increasing, but Luo Luo's original subjects also saw their faith rise after learning of his victory in the divine battle. The vast majority had already crossed the threshold to become true believers.

 

After addressing part of Sada's inheritance, Luo Luo turned his attention to the items compensated by the Star Academy. Not to mention the energy stones, the other five items were all useful and quite beneficial.

 

He used the Subject Card. The difference between Goblin Scholars and Labi Goblins wasn't significant; this particular race simply had larger heads than normal goblins.

 

They were very intelligent, which was key. Just explaining some basic scientific principles to them allowed them to quickly understand and come up with many creative ideas, a phenomenon that hadn't occurred with the previous cultivated talents. One could only imagine how smart they truly were with those big heads.

 

The forerunners were just like ordinary humans in comparison.

 

Compared to the subject cards, the Class Change Scrolls were more beautiful. The Worker Class Change Scroll could instantly benefit ten thousand subjects, significantly accelerating various construction projects in Luo Luo's divine realm, while the Scientist one could only benefit one hundred at a time.

 

Luo Luo decided to allocate the class change slots to the scholars in the civilization laboratory and the newly refined Goblin Scholars. The scientist class would provide a considerable boost for them.

 

In the central square of the central capital, he replaced the original statue of Luo Luo with the Great Inventor Statue. Luo Luo felt no objections; everything was based on practicality.

 

After arranging these measures, Luo Luo felt his mind had become clearer. His subjects felt this even more profoundly; problems that they used to find confusing could now be easily resolved with a little thought. The wisdom of the beings in the entire divine realm had significantly increased.

 

Now that most matters had been properly arranged, Luo Luo could take some time to absorb the changes brought by this victory.

Luo Luo had mostly absorbed Sada's inheritance. Only the most critical item remained: his demigod divine core. Luo Luo had thought this through before the war began. He wanted to see what he could learn about the divine core using his research divine power, which greatly excited him.

 

However, after completing the analysis of the Fire Element Essence, he immediately began analyzing the Essence of Lightning Element. Currently, there was no place to study the divine core, and the fastest he could look into it would take at least seventeen days; thus, he could only wait through a long period.

 

The technological developments in the divine realm were advancing rapidly. The previous research on the psionic armoured vehicles was completed. Scholars at the technology laboratory subsequently developed psionic-powered trains and planes.

 

However, due to the small size of the territory, these more convenient transportation tools couldn't be fully deployed. Luo Luo had no choice but to temporarily shelve them, focusing primarily on urging them to research psionic technology.

 

Luo Luo aimed to replace the original electrical energy with psionic technology. Although charging the empty energy stones still required electricity, daily life was much more convenient using psionic technology. The energy level of the energy stones was far superior to that of batteries.

 

For energy stones and batteries of the same size, the former could store energy forty times more than the latter. This significantly facilitated the use of some electronic devices. Internal combustion engine cars had also been completely banned in favour of more sustainable and environmentally friendly psionic cars.

 

Item Name: Psionic Car 

Capacity: Four people 

Speed: Average speed of 60 km/h, maximum speed of 110 km/h, 850 horsepower. 

Effect: Can transport personnel to designated destinations.

 

Although oil cars hadn't been used for long, they caused significant pollution in Luo Luo's small divine realm. This was one of the reasons Luo Luo urgently shut down these cars. On the other hand, the rapid development of psionic technology in the divine realm made it possible to replace the previously outdated products.

 

At this moment, some cities in Luo Luo's divine realm were no different from those on Earth. Various racial capitals, including the divine capital, had built high-rise buildings. Psionic cars drove through the streets, and people used various psionic appliances, including psionic refrigerators, psionic ovens, psionic induction cookers, and psionic computers. There were also newly developed psionic mobile phones.

 

A simple internet already began to be widely used in Luo Luo's divine realm. The speed of information exchange between various races accelerated, fostering greater mutual understanding.

 

Abundant food and a comfortable environment promoted cultural development within the divine realm. Each race had its unique culture, which was much more vibrant than on the Earth. For instance, the differences between the Cat Race, Rabbit Race, and Fox Race and humans were minimal.

 

Their only distinction was in their ears, and their gentle personalities contributed to their high faith levels toward Luo Luo, allowing them to integrate well into human society. This led to a blending of their cultures with human culture, promoting mutual development. Moreover, members of the three races were quite small and adorable, gaining popularity among humans. Indeed, they were what Luo Luo once dreamed of: beast-eared girls during his life on Earth.

 

This was the benefit of coming to a different world. The Rabbit Race was skilled with their hands and had a talent for weaving. After learning some knowledge from Luo Luo, they ventured into the fashion industry, creating unique handmade products that quickly swept across the divine realm, leading to several frenzied shopping sprees. The Cat Race specialized in barbecues and quickly gained fame.

 

The Fox Race, on the other hand, was characterized by their graceful figures and produced many beautiful women. Although they originally had the drawback of a fox-like odor, they maintained high cleanliness and used perfumes to cover it, significantly boosting their allure to other beings, especially humanoids. Many humanoid races took pride in marrying a Fox Race woman.

 

These were the races among the half-orcs that integrated best into society. Meanwhile, the Tiger, Lion, and Leopard races still relied on their strength for survival, which was quite easy in the abundant food environment of Luo Luo's divine realm. With plenty of food and a variety of delicious dishes available, asking them to eat raw meat, even human flesh, would be met with unanimous refusal. Why would they skip the fragrant cat race barbecues for raw meat? No one would agree; it was madness.

 

The Eagle Race and Warg Race had a lower degree of integration in Luo Luo's divine realm. Like the Tiger, Lion, and Leopard races, they leaned more towards beast-like features, manifesting as the legendary beast-headed human bodies. This was a significant difference compared to the Rabbit Race.

 

After losing their military power and lacking strong bodies, these two races saw their status decline considerably in Luo Luo's divine realm. The Eagle Race predominantly resided in high mountains, leading to limited contact with most creatures. Their thoughts remained pure, and in the face of sufficient food, they displayed no extreme behaviours.

 

However, the Warg Race was different. While they didn't commit any serious offenses due to Luo Luo, their cunning nature still led them to petty thefts. Although these items weren't of high value, encountering such incidents frequently became quite bothersome. Moreover, the Warg Race was notoriously unattractive among half-orcs, so their reputation was already poor. Coupled with their thieving habits, the Warg Race's reputation throughout the divine realm suffered greatly, resulting in most beings being unwilling to engage with them further.

 

This laid the groundwork for the future conflicts to come.
