Once, I wanted to be a good person

The decision to set the currency as "Contribution Value" was the result of Fang Ze's careful consideration. Initially, he thought to use orthodox names like Devil Coins or mocking names like Dog Coins or coins, but at the last moment, he had a realization: this trading platform was set up by a deity-like devil. How could he use such a "metallic-smelling" currency?

As a lofty deity, the devil should be completely uninterested in the possessions of his believers, merely providing a platform for the believers who willingly offer up their belongings to the devil, so... "Contribution Value" is most appropriate.

After sending out the invitations, Fang Ze did not continue to monitor the progress: the experimentation with the exchange would take some time, and waiting was just too boring for him.

Thinking this, Fang Ze walked to his desk, then prepared to start tonight's Late-Night Investigation.

Although he had discerned through the "Black Panther" ability that several commissioners, just like Commissioner Wang, all worshipped Dahei Jialuo, he did not know the specific details.

Thus, he wanted to learn more about these commissioners to discover details even Commissioner Wang might not know, which could help his investigation proceed more smoothly!

With this thought, Fang Ze turned on the desk lamp, adjusted the layout of the Late-Night Investigation Room, selected the Director of the Emerald City Investigation Bureau, and began tonight's investigation...

.......

Meanwhile, in Miaohua City.

The secret stronghold of the Devil Sect.

After finishing a day of training, Miaomiao and Zhixi were sitting on the ground discussing the situation of these new believers.

Since Fang Ze temporarily lent his basic "Credit World" ability to Miaomiao, she could directly accelerate the growth of the believers. Thus, in just over a week, they had trained twenty to thirty Martial Artists.

Out of these twenty to thirty Martial Artists, Miaomiao had awakened three Awakeners.

Though they all had common Awakening Abilities, precisely because of this, their development cycles were very short, and they quickly became combat-ready.

It could be said that the two girls worked very well together, and were highly efficient in their tasks.

After a busy day, the two of them were finally enjoying some leisure time.

Just then, suddenly, two small black holes appeared out of thin air in front of them.

The black holes appeared ancient and majestic, exuding a deeply mysterious aura.

The two girls were stunned for a moment and thought there was a danger, so they reflexively pushed off the ground, leaped up, and quickly retreated!

However, just after they had retreated, two black feathers floated out from those black holes.

The feathers twirled gently in the air before landing not far from them, and at the same time, a familiar, hoarse voice echoed in the minds of the two girls, "Lord Devil is quite satisfied with the development of our region. Hence, he has opened trading privileges for our area."

"Pick up the card in front of you, take the oath, and you will connect to the primary Devil's Exchange."

"Messenger?" Hearing the familiar voice, the two girls looked at each other, then hesitantly approached the card and picked it up.

As the card was taken, it slowly transformed into a devil's mark in the hands of the two girls, then gradually vanished.

Along with the formation of the mark, a mechanical, emotionless voice resonated in the minds of Miaomiao and Zhixi, "Please pledge never to reveal the existence of the Devil's Exchange, keep all merchandise information confidential within the Devil's Exchange, and disclose no product or personnel details to anyone."

The two girls followed this mechanical voice in taking the oath, suddenly feeling two streams of colorful light enter their bodies and lock onto their souls.

Deep down, they knew that violating their pledge would obliterate their divine souls.

"Truly magical means. Worthy of Lord Devil...", Zhixi murmured softly, then looked at a page that had appeared seemingly out of nowhere in front of her.

The page looked exquisite, divided into four layers.

The lowest layer, named "Yellow," was already full of various merchandise.

But it was the item worth one million Contribution Points at the top that really shocked Zhixi!

"A noble title recognized by World Origin?!"

As the daughter of the Clan Leader of the Miaohua Tribe, Zhixi had some understanding of nobility.

It was a symbol of power! Not only did it denote development potential far surpassing ordinary Awakeners and superior strength among peers, but it also allowed for hereditary succession, maintaining a continuous bloodline of nobles from generation to generation.

Since the federation was established fifty years ago, there had been no nobles born.

Many families and powers had strived for this status, but none succeeded.

It was said that not even the demigods of the Spirit Realm could achieve this. Only those recognized by the World Origin could become nobles.

Zhixi's father had more than once longed for an ancestor of the Miaohua Tribe to achieve nobility, thinking that their present circumstance might have been different.

Now, Lord Devil claimed he could turn someone into a noble....

This method was truly unheard of!

Glancing hungrily at the description of this "product," Zhixi felt it was nearly an impossible task: because once the identity of a noble was confirmed upon advancing to the Fusion stage, it was immediately validated.
