BXBX NOVEL Chapter 347 - Earth (3)
Instead of surviving the meteorite crash, it’s blocking the meteorite.
The media talked about joint purchases all day long.
It was a fairy tale story that everyone could join forces to prevent the end of the world.
A discount was applied to the total score for purchasing the highest quality miracle, Outer Space Confrontation.
It also calculated the number of points that must be paid per person by dividing by the number of members.
“It’s definitely not a few points.”
The news anchor across the screen said.
“Although viewers who are watching TV may be able to check it, my faith score is 29pt every month.”
The anchor was also a member of the Lee Ho-jae Faith.
Now, most of the people in the profession who appeared on TV believed in the Lee Ho-jae Faith.
It was because of the religious window that could be checked over the screen through Hochi’s updates.
The believers weren’t happy to see actors belonging to other religions than the Lee Ho-jae Faith appear on TV.
The broadcasting station sent out a performer from the Lee Ho-jae Faith that viewers liked.
Now, rather than how attractive and capable celebrities are, it has become a world that considers how faithful they are.
“It’s a very small score compared to the 10 trillion points needed to stop a meteorite.”
The anchor talked about his merit value.
He had a fairly high merit value because he was able to express his opinions in front of the public.
However, compared to the 10 trillion points, it was too small, like the Faith.
“Experts have affirmed that we cannot collect 10 trillion points with public value. There is a limit to the number of points that can be obtained with money and social status, so it is not finite, but raising faith is the answer to securing 10 trillion points.”
It was the opinion of experts, but at the same time,
“There is enough time left for the meteorite to hit the Earth. Obviously, 10 trillion points is a lot, but we will build our faith higher. It is time to evangelize to those who are still turning away from the Lee Ho-jae Faith.”
The anchor said, staring straight ahead.
“We must work together to protect ourselves, our families, and even all of us and our world. That’s it from 9 o’clock news...”
The anchor’s comment was too inflammatory.
But the viewers cheered.
[Co-purchase is in progress.]
[You can participate in joint purchase after consent.]
[Current Purchase Achievement-Outer Space Confrontation: (22,314,332/10,000,000,000,000)]
In fact, since broadcasting companies started talking about joint purchases day after day, there had been tangible results.
Many people poured out their faith and achievements in joint purchases.
Because people would save each other’s scores, the opinion that no one would participate in the joint purchase was bleak.
If a meteorite collided because they did not reach 10 trillion points, people would lose everything.
Their lives and the world they lived in.
They were thrilled by the solution that appeared before the crisis.
They felt a sense of unity and belonging from the fact that so many people were sharing their will.
And through it, people were able to find a sense of stability from anxiety and fear.
The movement to collect gold on religious plates had spread all over the world, and people worked hard to evangelize and gather public value while desperately studying ways to increase their faith.
Faith was not something that could be gathered through any methodology. But through the process of immersion, faith naturally deepened.
The people who had already purchased survival capsules started to make a sound.
It was buried in the voices of many who could not find a survival capsule.
Even for those with survival capsules, since the meteorite had not fallen yet, no one made a big commotion about it.
* * *
“Can you really collect 10 trillion points?”
Asked Kim Min-hyuk.
I was skeptical.
No matter how much there is a discount for joint purchases, 10 trillion points is not a small number.
“Well.”
“How about lowering the price? As an event.”
I didn’t know if they would give me more points, but I couldn’t lower the price here.
The miracle of the highest grade is very different from the miracle of the lower grade.
All of the top miracles on my list of religious windows are divine powers.
Another special thing is this power.
It is the power of a god who can really do ‘all things’ against an ungodly person if there is enough divine power.
Naturally, the divine power is not infinite.
Unless it is a holy place of his own, a God can only perform miracles with limited power.
Even the divine power is not recovered just by resting like magic power.
Unlike ordinary miracles, power is connected to the foundation of divinity.
The consumption of divine power is extremely small, and utilization is much more free.
Seregia defined power as a miracle of using only faith in oneself.
Of course, not all gods became gods with just their own faith, but there will be no gods whose faith toward themselves does not even exist.
Power played a similar role to divinity to explain the identity of God.
Therefore, most gods had only a small number of powers.
The reason I have a variety of powers enough to fill the list of religious windows is because in the past, Hochi had cheated the gods of the Pantheon and received numerous powers.
While I interpreted those powers, I made them mine by remodeling and modifying them.
Because of the nature of my divinity, the powers of other gods never conflicted with my essence, so I was able to handle all of them fully.
However, having many powers does not mean that the value of each power is lowered.......
“Anyway, power is good because it costs less. It’s a grand explanation.”
Hochi, who was listening to the explanation, took a different approach.
Hochi tends to treat power too insignificantly.
It was natural because he had so easily obtained many powers and was neglecting it because he did not know how to use them properly.
“... I can’t lower the price of a super powerful miracle.”
“What if they can’t collect 10 trillion points in the end?”
“I’ll just stop it, well. They haven’t collected enough points, but I am impressed by the sincerity and I will write a miracle for free! You can publish it like this. The collected scores are just distributed again.”
Their benefit was also my benefit.
Of course, I am not unilaterally losing money.
My good will to the believers and stopping the meteorite will help to establish a vertical relationship between God and them.
If they witness the splendid effect of me destroying the meteorite and even returning their points, people’s faith will skyrocket.
Of course it would be a loss though.
“Is that okay?”
“It’s all right.”
The meteorite must be stopped anyway.
Unless I’m giving up on Earth.
Obviously, the loss was a loss, but it wasn’t something I couldn’t afford.
“You can think of it as an investment for the future.”

People were gathered in front of the temple.
Since it was a renovated temple that was originally a World Cup stadium, there was a large vacant lot and parking lot in front of the temple.
People filled the spot, and because that wasn’t enough, they took over the surrounding roadways.
The police were working hard to block the roads to keep cars out of the way, while controlling the countless people gathering in front of the temple.
Not long ago, people gathered in front of the temple and spent time singing songs and shouting slogans.
What started out with dozens of people first appeared in the news, and it grew to about a thousand.
And when it was revealed that the people’s faith was increasing as the time spent in front of the temple increased day by day, the number of people gathered in front of the temple began to exceed 10,000 units.
In fact, having been in front of the temple for a long time did not have the effect of increasing faith.
It was just because they had endured the discomfort and looked at the temple, prayed for a miracle for a long time, and because my presence in their hearts grew that much, it naturally increased.
Anyway, people said they found a way to increase their faith, and they began to gather in front of the temple.
It wasn’t just Korea.
In foreign countries, pilgrims came to Korea saying that they had to go to the Holy Land and pray in person rather than the temple of a foreign branch.
So, an unprecedented crowd gathered.
From the temple, I could see crowds of people on the road and on the roof of the building.
No matter where I look, I can’t see the asphalt on the road.
“Ahaha! That’s cute!”
Yong-yong said, looking through the window of the temple.
Is that cute?
I had a strange feeling because the people looked like a swarm of ants.
Maybe Yong-yong found interest in that.
“Not much time is left.”
[Co-purchase is in progress.]
[You can participate in joint purchase after consent.]
[Current Purchase Achievement-Outer Space Confrontation: (459,237,143,832/10,000,000,000,000)]
Kim Min-hyuk said.
There is not much time left before the meteorite hits Earth’s surface.
People didn’t know yet.
Governments of each country have manipulated the time remaining until the meteorite impact to prevent confusion as much as possible.
People believed that there were still a few days left for the meteorite to crash.
“We have to start.”
I used my power to make white magic linger around the temple.
People started to cheer at the sudden change.
The loud shouts were transmitted to the temple.
“You know what it is and you like it.”
“What?”
“It’s just a light.”
It is literally white light.
It is a performance light that is clearly visible even in broad daylight by mixing magical power.
[Warning! The meteorite is approaching Earth.]
[Co-purchase is in progress.]
[You can participate in joint purchase after consent.]
[Current Purchase Achievement-Outer Space Confrontation: (459,237,143,832/10,000,000,000,000)]
[Superior miracle-There is not enough accumulated points to use the outer space battle system.]
[Superior miracle-4592 billion pt has been accumulated for joint purchase of the outer space confrontation.]
[Superior Miracle-The joint purchase of the outer space matchup has been canceled.]
People in front of the temple began to tremble when they saw the message.
I like this.
Since there are believers in front of me, it was easy to see the reaction.
[Scores consumed for joint purchase will be returned.]
[Although it is a religion that is not yet mature, many believers have shown dedication for themselves and for all.]
[1% of the points spent for the top-level miracle joint purchase are paid as additional points.]
In addition to returning the spent points as they were, I put in 1% interest.
It was a huge loss to the point that it was painful.
It was necessary.
When another crisis came one day, the believers shouldn’t have let go of their hands, thinking that I would save it on my own.
The believers had to actively participate and devote themselves to compensation.
[In the face of a global crisis, a single, top-notch miracle is used at no cost.]
[Prepare to be amazed]
Along with the roar, the white magic that circulated around the temple soared into the sky.
As the cloudy air of Seoul and the dark clouds above the sky were pushed away, a pillar of light stretched out beyond it.
A bright white pillar of light that penetrated the atmosphere from the surface.
It was large and bright enough to be seen outside of Seoul as well as in foreign countries depending on their locations.
No scene would look more sacred than this.
“Oh, cool, cool.”
Said Hochi from the side.
The pillar of light reached the end of the atmosphere, the outer atmosphere, and formed a huge circular barrier.
Now, when the meteorite hits that barrier, it only needs to burst splendidly with a wonderful effect.
The appearance of the barrier cannot be seen with the naked eye...
“Huh? What’s that.”
“What?”
There was something strange about the meteorite.
I’m sure...
“It was just a stone block before.”
Suddenly, a powerful divine power began to be felt in the meteorite.
“Dad.”
Yong-yong also felt the strength and called me by holding my sleeve.
If that was God’s plan and they intended to attack me and the Earth, then I should get my hands on it right now.
So that the impact on Earth wouldn’t be as bad.
However, I had to hesitate for a moment because of an unexpected voice.
[Hi buddy! Long time no see.]
The voice that penetrated my head was that of a very familiar god.
It was the God of Hope.
