My System Arrives 3 Years Earlier, But the Deities Haven't Come Yet

Zeng Shen addressed the tamed snakes, instructing them to convey his words to the snakes in the tank.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss."

Instantly, all the snakes communicated with the forty milk snakes.

Zeng Shen, wanting to keep a close eye on the snake god named Mesa, used his Peeping Eye on her, sensing she would be the most challenging to convert among the intelligent species due to her future as a tribal god.

[Intelligent Species: Snake People]

[Qualification: Epic]

…

[Mood: Uneasy, Nervous, Worried, Afraid]

[Analysis: Under the intimidating presence of the king snakes, unease spreads within Mesa. Timid by nature, she decides to submit to the two-legged creature.]

The next moment, beams of light erupted from the milk snakes' tank.

[Congratulations to the host. Under your intimidation and persuasion, the Snake People chief, the Serpent God Mesa, has become your messenger and a follower, earning you +1000 survival points, +10000 faith, and the Wonder: Serpent Messenger Statue.]

[Under Mesa's leadership, all Snake People have become your followers, adding +40 general followers, +4000 survival points, and +4000 faith.]

"Wow, that was too easy!" Zeng Shen was momentarily stunned by the system's message. He couldn't believe how readily the snake god had submitted, considering her future significance.

Could it be influenced by the nature of the original species?

Recalling the shop owner's description of milk snakes as timid, Zeng Shen realized it might indeed be the case. Coupled with the intimidating king snakes, these timid snakes, not yet the formidable snake beauties of the future, naturally prioritized survival, leading them to submit.

Had they evolved into intelligent species, gaining their allegiance could have been exponentially more challenging.

Understanding this, Zeng Shen appreciated the pet market even more. Pets, already accustomed to human interaction, were easier to convert before evolving into intelligent species compared to their wild counterparts, who often resisted and ignored him until he used certain methods.

Unlike the wild species, which required more effort, the foxes and milk snakes submitted almost instantly after a simple exchange.

After this realization, he moved the tamed snakes to the Lake of Beasts, placing them with the pythons and advising them to remain in the area until he could properly settle them.

Zeng Shen then exited the divine realm, transformed No. 1 into a regular truck, and drove toward the nearby insectarium.

Meanwhile, he examined the backpack's contents, focusing on a statue depicting a beautiful young woman with a serpent's lower body.

[Serpent Messenger Statue: Rare Wonder. When placed in a serpent-inhabited area, it doubles their reproductive rate and increases the chance of mutating by 1%, with a 5% boost in qualification improvement.]

"Impressive," Zeng Shen marveled. With this wonder, he could dedicate a 100-square-kilometer area in the divine realm for the serpent tribe to establish a settlement, rapidly expanding their population.

Where should he place it?

He decided to ponder this later, focusing now on finding the spider beasts.

Soon, he arrived at the insectarium, which sold numerous spiders.

However, to his frustration, none of the spiders survived past three years.

This was somewhat expected, given the proximity to the pet market, home to formidable Snake People and Snow Fox tribes. Other beasts needed unique traits to survive.

Feeling a bit let down, Zeng Shen drove to a nearby supermarket, purchasing twenty trays of raw eggs, forty trays of quail eggs, and ten boxes of sausages.

He then visited several deli shops, buying roast turkey legs, cooked chicken, duck, pork, and bacon, storing them in the truck's rear.

Once back in the truck, he stored all the food in his backpack space, opened the portal to the divine realm, and appeared by the Lake of Beasts.

As he appeared, the animals gathered, eager to greet him warmly.

Zeng Shen, unable to handle such enthusiasm, quickly halted their advances, encouraging them to continue their activities.

He approached the fox area, where red, white, silver-black, and sand foxes resided.

The intelligent mechanical caretakers were busy constructing makeshift shelters for the foxes using gathered dry straw and wood.

Upon his arrival, the ten white foxes immediately surrounded him, rubbing against his legs.

Zeng Shen crouched to pet their soft fur, then conjured the meat he had purchased, laying it beside them. "Eat up."

"Yip yip yip."

The scent of meat invigorated the foxes, who eagerly devoured the food, clearly famished.

Smiling, Zeng Shen moved to the forest edge where colorful snakes congregated.

The snakes, upon his approach, slithered forward, eager to coil around him.

Zeng Shen, uneasy around snakes, especially in such numbers, felt his scalp tingle.

Promptly, he retrieved the remaining meat and eggs, placing them before the snakes. "Eat."

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."

The snakes hissed, focusing on the feast before them, devouring the eggs and meat.

Throughout, Zeng Shen had no intention of petting the snakes, even though the milk snake, destined to become a mesmerizing snake woman and eventually a snake god, was among them.

After feeding the intelligent species, Zeng Shen left ten boxes of sausages for the omnivorous animals, allowing them to snack at will, before exiting the divine realm and settling into the passenger seat.

"Where to next, Master?" Lin Keke asked from the driver's seat.

Zeng Shen, watching the sun set in the west, was about to suggest dinner when a sudden alert sounded.

[Danger! Danger! A Tier-4 Angelic Deity and her followers are rapidly approaching fr

om behind. Your current strength is insufficient to face them. Escape immediately to avoid capture.]
