Spellcasting is a Permanent Addition and My Skills Are All Forbidden Spells

 Chapter 62 Emergency Announcement! There is a **** asking for your faith!

 Belief function, the content is very simple.

 After unlocking it, you can choose to believe in the so-called ‘gods’, receive blessings, and gain some reward bonuses.

For example, strengthening the settlement shield, weakening nearby monsters, or directly providing attribute points...

If you look at the rewards alone, faith provides a lot of bonuses.

There are some powerful beliefs that can instantly increase a person's combat power to a higher level.

 However, this belief function is a double-edged sword.

 Even...a world disaster that swept the world in the previous life was called [Disaster of Faith]!

 Recalling information about the function of belief.

 Lu Cheng's face turned cold.

This function is special in that no matter what settlement it is, it must be unlocked at the latest level two.

 Even some level one or even zero-level settlements can unlock this function.

 For Daxia, this feature brings far more disadvantages than benefits.

At this moment, a stream of light flashed across the column of faith.

　　【Ding, the faith function has been unlocked! 】

 Along with this system prompt.

 The panel unfolds into a light curtain.

 In the light curtain, phantoms of gods emerged one after another, with strange shapes and few similarities to humans.

 …

  【Belief in the God of Mercy】

　　【Choose to offer your faith, life and everything else to the merciful God, and receive blessings from the merciful God. 】

  【Blessing reward: The settlement shield is enhanced, and the monster resistance level is increased by 1 level. 】

  【Consecrate 20% of the experience you gain in the future to become a believer in the God of Mercy. 】

 …

  【Belief in the God of Destruction】

　　【Choose to offer your faith, life and everything to the God of Destruction and obtain the blessing of the God of Destruction. 】

  【Blessing reward: gain +10 for all attributes, double the effect of strength attributes, and increase the physical damage caused by 30%. 】

　　【Devoting all your rational thinking ability and 25 points of intelligence attributes, you can become a believer of the God of Destruction. 】

 …

  【Belief in God the Father】

　　【Choose to offer your faith, life and everything to God the Father and receive His blessings. 】

  【Blessing reward: +50% speed in gaining experience points, +10 additional free attribute points each time you upgrade. 】

 【If you offer the highest authority in the settlement hub and 100 attribute points, you can become a believer of God the Father. 】

 …

 In the light curtain, the shadows of gods appeared one after another.

 Among them, there are many familiar Western gods, but there are no local gods of Bactria.

 At the same time, the effects of belief in gods are also revealed.

 In terms of blessing rewards alone, these bonuses are very good.

Moreover, as the faith function is upgraded in the future, and even the statues of gods are built, these bonuses will increase a lot.

But correspondingly, the price is not low at all.

 Even the least demanding benevolent **** requires 20% experience.

Lu Cheng quickly moved down the line without stopping at all.

 Scroll down to the bottom in one breath, and an empty option comes into view.

 …

  【Not choosing faith】

  【You do not choose to believe in any god, and gain free attribute points +1. 】

 …

 Looking at this option, Lu Cheng's mind moved slightly.

 This item was the mainstream choice in Daxia in the previous life.

 As for why you chose this way.

 First, many people in Daxia are not used to believing in this thing.

The second reason is because choosing to become a believer brings too many hidden dangers!

 Originally, in the early stage of the disaster, it was difficult for gods to directly interfere with the world.

 It wasn’t until the 【Disaster of Faith】 broke out that there was a projection.

  But if you become a believer...it will be different!

Lu Cheng remembers it clearly.

 At the beginning of the previous life, there were many settlements in Daxia that chose to believe in gods.

 But after this, some settlements disappeared overnight, and everyone was sucked dry!

 The one who caused this tragedy was the gods they believed in!

 After becoming a believer, he is completely like the livestock raised by the gods.

 For believers, gods can take whatever you want!

 Those offerings at the beginning could only be regarded as interest at best.

 Faith, life and everything mentioned at the beginning are the capital that the gods are eyeing!

 Daxia was in a difficult situation in the early stages of the disaster, which was also a large factor.

Under the influence of the gods, many enemy countries developed rapidly, and then repeatedly used confrontational props to exert pressure, trying to force Daxia to contribute their faith.

 In the early stages of the disaster, great pressure was put on Daxia.

Until the seventh year of the Catastrophic Era, the disaster of faith broke out, and several small countries with fanatical beliefs throughout the country were wiped out in one day!

 Other enemy countries with widespread beliefs also suffered heavy losses.

After that, the situation in Daxia got better.

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng's mind turned and he made a choice.

 Then, the system prompt sounded.

  【Ding, you choose not to believe in gods! 】

  【You have the qualifications to be the acting city lord, and your choice will affect the entire settlement. Do you confirm? 】

"confirm."

　　【Ding, confirmation completed, settlement No. 1024 has chosen not to believe in gods. ]    After dealing with the faith interface, Lu Cheng turned his eyes.

 As the settlement reaches level 2, the task of upgrading the city is also unlocked.

 This is an essential prerequisite for upgrading a settlement into a city.

 …

 【City upgrade task (prerequisite)】

  【Preliminary preparations for upgrading a settlement into a city. After all are met, the city upgrade preparation function can be started. At the same time, everyone in the settlement will receive attribute rewards! 】

 【Settlement hub reaches level 2 (satisfied)】

 【Completed the City Lord Trial Quest (0/1)】

  【Destroy the sealing stones of surrounding settlements (2/5)】

  【Settlement population reaches 10,000 (satisfied)】

  【Settlement area reaches 1 million square meters (satisfied)】

 【The number of residential buildings reached 100 (1/100)】

　　【Reminder: If you complete the prerequisite tasks within a week, the reward will be doubled! 】

 …

 Glancing at it, Lu Cheng felt a little hopeful.

  The rewards for city preliminaries are higher than the monster tide.

 Furthermore, since he has the status of acting city lord, the rewards he received would have been doubled.

“The next goal is to complete this preliminary task within a week...”

 Lu Cheng's mind was spinning.

 The first month before the disaster, when there was no world disaster, was an excellent period of development for him.

 Upgrade yourself, and stacking passives is naturally the primary goal.

 On the other hand, even if the settlement is upgraded, it cannot be let go.

 First, the settlement itself can provide high bonuses.

 The second is that many of his subsequent plans require support from the city's functions.

At the current stage, human society is cut off by a large number of monsters and divided into settlements. Many ideas cannot be implemented.

No matter how many ideas you have, the only one you can influence is your own settlement.

Lu Cheng glanced at the task requirements.

  Settlement No. 1024 is making good progress, half of which has reached the target.

 In the remaining three.

The city lord trial mission and the settlement sealing stone are not difficult for him either.

 As for the building requirements, it depends on other people to work together.

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng opened the chat channel.

As soon as he opened it, he received a system prompt.

【Ding, you have the qualifications to act as the city leader and can publish one pinned announcement every day. 】

 The communication function has been upgraded to Level 2, and he can make announcements.

Lu Cheng thought about it and posted the city mission requirements.

　　【Ding, challenger Lu Cheng has issued a pinned announcement! Announcement content omitted]

This announcement was sent out, and the chat in the community suddenly became lively!

 “Brothers, go and see! Lu Shen has made an announcement!”

“City upgrade task? What is this? Does it mean that the settlement can be upgraded to a city in the future??”

"The city... sounds much more domineering than the settlement! Boss Lu Cheng, is there anything we can do to help with this task?"

 In the community chat, everyone was very enthusiastic.

Glancing at the chat in the settlement, Lu Cheng wanted to speak.

 “Indeed there is.”

“I can solve these three mission requirements, the city lord trial mission and the settlement sealing stone.”

 “This is a village where everyone needs to work together.”

 His news dropped, and the chat in the community immediately became heated!

 “Great! Finally there is something I can help with!”

“Don’t worry, Lu Shen, I promise to complete the mission!”

“It just so happens that I am a woodcutter by profession. I can cut down wood and save a lot of Originium fragments!”

 The enthusiasm among the people was extremely high.

 After lying down for so long, many people are already embarrassed!

“I see this mission requirement, and there is also a settlement sealing stone! I can help find it!”

"That's right! Let's find the sealing stone together and save Lu Shen a lot of time!"

 Everyone was very active and started thinking about it spontaneously.

 It’s not just respect for Lu Cheng.

 When the settlement is upgraded, they can also get a lot of rewards!

“By the way, Mr. Lu Cheng, can I choose this belief function? I think the price is too scary!”

 Someone took the opportunity to ask for advice.

"I don't choose! Look at the price, you have to sacrifice your life. I am living well, who can sacrifice my life for him!"

“That’s right, even if you don’t mention life, just asking for 20% experience is too much! Upgrading is already slow!”

 Others spoke one after another.

Lu Cheng raised his eyes and was about to speak when suddenly the situation around him suddenly changed!

 “Wow…”

The wind blew and the sky suddenly darkened.

 There seemed to be dark clouds hanging over the settlement, making the whole settlement feel depressed instantly!

 In midair, little orange-red rays of light emerged, seeming to condense into substance.

At the same time, a system prompt sounded in Lu Cheng's ear.

  【Ding, emergency announcement! There is a **** asking for your faith! 】

Dear gentlemen, today’s Monday pk, please read it 24 hours a day! QAQ
