Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

How to become a demigod.

Perhaps this is a question many people are curious about.

But when he asked it, it gave off a sense of seeking shortcuts and gaming the system.

Isabella frowned at him, silent for a while before asking, "Do you want to become a demigod?"

Fang Hao shook his head, "I just want to understand a bit."

He was now a first-level deity, yet above a demigod.

Though his strength wasn't much to speak of.

Isabella picked up her wine glass and took a light sip before speaking slowly, "Knowing knowledge far beyond your strength only adds pressure, what you need to do is improve bit by bit."

When strength is sufficient, naturally, the method to become a demigod will be found.

Without strength, no matter how much knowledge one possesses, it would only affect your state of mind.

Isabella's words sounded more like she was lecturing her junior.

Advising him not to aim too high.

"I just want to know, is a demigod just above Dark Gold?" Fang Hao directly asked again with a question.

"Yes, to become a demigod is not simply through heroic trials anymore but through the amalgamation of Divinity. Once you possess Divinity, you become a demigod, and Divinity will become the core of your strength," Isabella explained.

Fang Hao nodded, "If we don't elevate in the normal way, is there a quick method to become a demigod?"

Isabella frowned, looked at him oddly for a while, and then said, "What do you think a demigod is? To become one quickly."

In this world, deities cannot descend directly.

A demigod is the pinnacle of strength.

If there were a quick way to become a demigod, wouldn't demigods be everywhere?

"Can't someone else absorb this Divinity?" Fang Hao asked more directly.

Isabella was about to speak but suddenly paused, seemingly recalling something.

Then she said, "I have never heard of anyone becoming a demigod by absorbing Divinity, but in one record, there is a story of someone who devoured Divinity and ascended to godhood."

Directly becoming a god?

Was it the Divinity of a true god that was swallowed?

"How were they devoured?" Fang Hao inquired further.

The others also pricked up their ears, waiting for the story.

"I can't quite remember the details of the story," Isabella took another sip of her drink before continuing, "I remember, it seemed to be a thief who had fled into a temple, his body covered in wounds, both ears and nose cut off, with only two fingers remaining on his hands. He kneeled before the statue of the deity, pleading for the deity to save him."

"And then?" Anjia inquired.

"The deity saved him, and, impressed by his eloquence, granted him a high rank. Once, when the deity was severely injured in battle, the thief mixed the venom of a deadly snake into the deity's cup, poisoned the deity to death, and then devoured the Divinity to become a deity himself."

The story wasn't long, and obviously, Isabella didn't remember it too well.

A deity being killed by the very thief he saved, the authenticity of this story isn't high.

But it does prove that the devouring of Divinity has existed for a long time.

"How was it devoured, directly eaten, or how was it done? Can anyone absorb it regardless of their strength?"

Isabella pondered again before seriously answering, "It should be absorption, absorbed into the body like energy, not ruling out direct consumption. As for strength, the higher the better, the closer to being a demigod the better. Power is also a burden, and ordinary people might not be able to withstand such power."

According to her story, if a thief could devour Divinity, then absorbing Divinity shouldn't be difficult.

The reason such information is scarce.

Mainly because no one can kill a demigod or a deity, let alone devour them.

"What are the dangers if the devouring fails?"

Isabella looked him up and down curiously, suspecting that he asked in such detail, could he actually have Divinity?

But on second thought, there are only a few demigods, and it would not be his turn to have Divinity.

"It depends on your strength, if you are close to being a demigod, even if it fails, the likelihood of danger is not great."

Fang Hao then asked about some related matters, and the conversation shifted to the Dragon Queen.

This time, Isabella actually praised Fang Hao a few times, but still had no intention of helping.

Leaving her daughter to assist him was the biggest concession she had made.

Fang Hao did not say much more, as he hadn't counted on her in his plans.

After sitting together for a while, they stood up and said goodbye to Isabella.

Taking a few people, including Rolana, they left together.

...

Through teleportation, they returned to Rainbow Pearl Island.

The Sea King proactively approached him, reporting on some recent progress.

The damaged islands were being repaired, and the surrounding forces were beginning to restore diplomacy and trade.

The Sea Tribe was gradually returning to normal.

After listening for a while, Fang Hao sent the Sea King away.

He still didn't have the energy to focus on these issues while the main city had yet not been reclaimed.

After sending off the Sea King, he was just about to call for Rolana.

Suddenly, he heard a voice in his ear.

"Sir, Miriam is calling for you."

Miriam?

The old lady from Lyss City.

Releasing his divine presence, his vision blurred, and he suddenly appeared in the temple of Lyss City.

Miriam was still kneeling in front of the statue.

And his own statue in the temple had also changed to a pose holding a scepter, which frankly looked quite handsome.

"Miriam, you don't need to kneel in the future, just speak up if there's anything," Fang Hao said.

The two communicated directly in their minds and did not need to speak aloud.

Following that, he heard 'Miriam's ' voice in his mind.

"The City Lord's mansion sent a message that this morning, in accordance with the Dragon Clan's request, someone was arranged to meet the Dragon Clan leader."

Upon hearing this message, Fang Hao was startled. The Dragon Clan had already reached Lyss City.

"What did the Dragon Clan say?"

"The Dragon Clan demands that within three days, you reveal your whereabouts, or they will launch an attack on this city. The City Lord's Office tried to contact Lady Rebecca, but without any news, they attempted to get in touch with you."

Three days were given.

That was somewhat unexpected for Fang Hao.

It seems the Dragon Clan also cares about the lives of their people, offering each other a chance to reconcile without destruction.

"There's no need to contact Rebecca; she is receiving her inheritance. I will handle this matter within three days, so they need not worry," Fang Hao said.

Miriam pondered for a moment, then continued, "The wealthy merchants in the city are taking their assets and leaving."

"It's fine, let them be. If there's nothing amiss in three days, they will return," Fang Hao stated bluntly.

Rebecca wasn't here, and neither was he.

If these departing elites were detained, it could provoke chaos in the city ahead of time.

"Alright, I understand," said Miriam.

"Don't worry, I can handle the situation, and you all will be safe."

"Yes, my lord."

...

Cancelling 'Divinity Descending,' Fang Hao disconnected from 'Miriam.'

Recently, he hadn't been in touch with Amanda either. It appeared the Dragon Clan had already entered his city.

Judging by the time, it must have been over a month, and the poisonous fog should have mostly dispersed.

With the Dragon Clan's robust physique, entering the city was no problem.

It seemed that negotiations with the Dragon Clan needed to be moved up.

At the very least, a negotiation must happen within the next three days.

After lunch.

Fang Hao called Laurana to his room.

[The Beauty of the Lonely Night - Laurana Ann Tobias (Dark Gold 5th Tier Hero)].

Throughout, Laurana's rank had never changed.

Always a Dark Gold fifth tier.

"What's up?" Laurana entered and flopped directly onto the bed.

"Laurana, there's an important task I need you to undertake," Fang Hao pulled her up saying.

"What are you scheming now? If there's some scheme, go find Anjia, I'm not playing with you," Laurana complained, her body still slack as she leaned back, clearly unwilling to cooperate.

Fang Hao was startled.

What scheme? What nonsense.

He didn't joke with her, but rather said while pulling her, "I want you to become a demigod, the second in our power."

"A demigod? That's still far off for me," Laurana sat up.

Fang Hao chuckled lightly and said, "I have a way."

He then took out the divinity from his storage space.

A glowing orb emitting divine light instantly captured Laurana's attention.

Just staring at the orb induced a compelling urge to approach and possess it.

"Hey! Don't fall asleep," Fang Hao said as he shook the dazed Laurana.

"What is this?"

"A divinity, from the demigod we killed yesterday."

Laurana's eyes widened.

So, Fang Hao was planning to turn her into a demigod when he was asking her mother about divinity.

Absorbing a divinity was something that only happened in stories.

"Can it really be absorbed?" Laurana asked.

"Yes, I have already absorbed one. It should be safe, though the method for transmigrators is not suitable for you. You will have to find your own method. After this, we'll be divine companions."

"Pfft! Who's your divine companion?" Laurana scoffed, but still extended her hand to receive the divinity.

Laurana took the divinity and started figuring out how to absorb it.

After a few attempts, the glow from the orb, as if drawn, began converging towards her body.

Gradually merging into her.

...

Two days later.

Goblin 'Kukettor' stepped out from the light screen, surveying this familiar city.

Its former prosperity was no more.

Before him lay only a desolate city and the remains of ruins.

Kukettor, adjusting his collar, carrying his briefcase, walked toward the city center.

Passing by the warehouse area, he could see the equipment and weapons casually piled outside.

Finally reaching the Lord's mansion, he took a deep breath and called out, "Trade Alliance 'Kukettor,' seeking an audience with the Dragon Queen."

A few moments later, a chilly voice emerged from the hall, "Come in!"

The goblin entered the hall carefully.

The Dragon Queen sat on her White Bone throne, with two Dragon Clan elders seated below her.

"What brings you here?" the Dragon Queen glanced at the goblin.

The goblin swallowed and emphasized again, "Dragon Queen, the Trade Alliance has a duty to provide mediation to its members. This time, I am here to..."

"Are you here to plea for Fang Hao?" the Dragon Queen scoffed, "Does he think he can negotiate peace in this war?"

"Uh... Dragon Queen, Fang Hao sent me to inform you that he wishes to meet you tomorrow at the Trade Alliance headquarters, and he plans to release some Dragon Clan captives."
