Chapter 1734: The Three Options.

Legion-6 asked his angel, "Is it a coincidence that the first settlement we encountered is occupied by our chosen race or where we dropped in an area populated by Orcs?"

"It is the latter. But things will start to move in your favor to create an opportunity for you to acquire believers."

That opportunity arrived as they watched. The rain ended and the sky cleared up. A group of orcs came out of the settlement. These orcs were fully geared with weapons and armor. It looked as if they were about to fight someone. It made them more terrifying to look at. The clones were full of appreciation for what they saw. Legion-2 commented with a nod. "Yes, yes. Fine specimens indeed. This race will make for servile but capable believers." They were in general agreement that they made the right choice in deciding to become the gods of orcs.

The group of orcs formed in front of the gate of the settlement. As Legion watched, an old orc approached the group. The old orc was accompanied by a much younger orc who was carrying some tools made of bones and horns. Everyone in the group bowed to the old orc when it finally reached them. Then this old orc performed some sort of prayer.

It sprinkled some concortion from a calabash of sorts onto the warriors. It marked their foreheads with an unknown black substance. It did some dancing, raised both hands, and howled into the sky using the bone tools as instruments. Then it sent off the warriors.

Legion could understand their language, so they knew what this group of armed warriors were up to. The armed group was going out to hunt while the old orc was a shaman. The short ceremony held by the shaman was to bless the warriors so that their hunt would be successful.

The warriors disappeared into the forest after the blessing. The nine wandering gods watching felt a connection to several of the orcs. It was a connection of faith that they could follow to acquire their first convert.

"So this is the opportunity you spoke of. A sacred ritual invoking the assistance of the gods."

The angel replied, "Yes. Every god will get an opportunity. It might be obvious or subtle. It will depend on their luck and their powers of observation to notice it. Then it will depend on them to take advantage of it. So what will you do?"

Legion thought amongst themselves and decided to split up to investigate their choices. They have been given a lot of choices with this opportunity. They have to pick carefully because their first convert is very important to their future as gods.

The first convert of wandering deities will be their oracle. It will be their mouthpiece in this world and their first root to anchor themselves. They will be able to speak with the Oracle and the Oracle will be able to see them. It will be their first point of interference in this world.

Most importantly, they can't replace the Oracle unless it dies of natural causes, and they won't get another slot for an Oracle until they become Tier 1. So they have to take this decision very seriously. Hence why they decided to inspect and watch their options up close.

The clones scattered in different directions. Some of them went with the hunting team while others went into the settlement with the shaman and her acolyte. The first thing they used on them was insight. They were able to get a lot of information with it.

Their first option was the shaman.

NAME: Warshaw Shanking

AGE: 211(230)

FAITH: None (Fervent Belief In Gods)

CLASS: None

TIER: 0

LEVEL: 25

HP: 40/50

CONSTITUTION: 5

STRENGTH: 4

VITALITY: 4

SPEED: 3

SPIRIT: 9

STATUS: Approaching the end of her lifespan.

Warshaw Shanking is 211 years old and has 19 more years to live. She has been the shaman of this tribe for 150 years. She is weak and frail. She is not wounded, but her health is in a constant lacking state. It will continue to dwindle until she dies.

She may be old and weak, but she has the highest amount of devotion to the gods among their options. This shouldn't be a surprise, seeing as she is the shaman of the tribe. But it is still impressive because there hasn't been any sighting of gods or news from gods in thousands of years, but she still believes that gods exist. She was raised to believe and has been waiting her whole life for the day the gods will return.

She is very suitable in that it will not be difficult to convert her. They just have to make contact with her and let her see them. The verification of their existence will give her short remaining life purpose and tie her deeply to their cause. She also has the advantage of knowledge and already has a believer base that respects her.

The next option for them is her acolyte.

NAME: Antios

AGE: 29(220)

FAITH: None (Moderate Belief In Gods)

CLASS: None

TIER: 0

LEVEL: 31

HP: 70/70

CONSTITUTION: 7

STRENGTH: 6

VITALITY: 7

SPEED: 6

SPIRIT: 5

STATUS: Restless but healthy.

The acolyte is a young orc with almost 200 years more to live. He is an orphan whom the shaman has been raising for quite a while. He has been taught to believe in gods since he was

a kid, so he believes in gods. He is younger and stronger than the shaman. He will be able to achieve more than the shaman if his potential is unlocked, but his devotion to gods is only half as deep as the shaman.

The third option is the leader of the hunting team.

NAME: Hitching Tuff

AGE: 136(240)

FAITH: None (Shallow Belief In Gods)

CLASS: None

TIER: 0

LEVEL: 41

HP: 90

VITALITY: 8
