Chapter 972 Dragon God's Last Question

A sudden surge of magic power in the vicinity interrupted Gawain's thoughts. He quickly followed his perception and saw that layers of pale golden halos suddenly emerged from the air, and in the center of the halo, the high-level dragon priest Hera Gore's figure is gradually turning from virtual to real.

The dragon priest completed the teleportation, then stepped onto the terrace from mid-air and came to Gawain.

"Mr. Herragol," Gawain looked at the sudden visit of the dragon priest, "we only met yesterday-it looks like the Dragon God has something to talk about with me today?"

"He wants to meet you now," Herragol said bluntly, "If possible, we will leave now."

Gawain was waiting for a response when Amber and Veronica happened to come to the terrace. They also saw the high priest who appeared here. Amber looked a little surprised: "Hey? Isn't this the high priest?"

"Another invitation," Gawain smiled and nodded to the two of them, "You and Melita wait for me together, I'll come when I go."

Afterwards, he briefly explained to Amber and Veronica, and then returned to Herragol - the lingering sense of unease in his heart made him have no intention of delaying time, and soon followed Herragol. 's teleportation spell left the terrace.

After the familiar sense of time and space displacement, the light and shadow in front of Gawain gradually dissipated. He arrived at the upper temple on the top of the mountain, with Heragol standing beside him, and the corridor leading to the hall extended straight ahead.

At the end of the corridor, the wide, gorgeous but empty hall didn’t seem to have changed. The round table and refreshments used to entertain guests were still arranged in the center of the hall, while the blond dragon god Enya stood quietly. Beside the round table, he is looking at this side with a gentle and calm gaze.

This time, Heragor did not wait in the corridor outside the hall, but walked into the hall with Gawain, and naturally stood behind the Dragon God, standing beside him like a servant.

Gawain came to the round table, nodded slightly to the god in front of him, and then sat down naturally, but before he opened his mouth to ask about the situation, the Dragon God took the initiative to break the silence: "It's time for you to return to the Loren Continent."

Gawain was stunned for a moment. The other party's words sounded like an abrupt and blunt order to evict guests, but he soon realized something: "Is something wrong?"

However, the Dragon God did not answer directly, but said lightly: "You have something you should do... There is a need for you there now."

Almost instantly, Gawain felt that his unease from last night had finally been confirmed, and he had the urge to leave Tallond immediately.

Obviously, the god sitting opposite him had already expected this, and the other party smiled lightly and said: "I will arrange for Melita to send you back to Loren, but you don't have to worry - we still have some time, At least a few more words to talk about."

Gawain has suppressed the impulse in his heart, and has also thought that if the situation in Loren Continent has changed drastically, then the Dragon God will definitely not invite himself to chat so slowly, since he invited himself here instead of a teleportation type of magic. "Throwing" his party back to Loren Continent means that the situation still has some leeway.

Thinking of this, a trace of curiosity arose in his heart: "What are we talking about today?"

"Just one thing," the dragon god's eyes fell on Gawain, "I want to talk to you... The final curtain between mortals and gods."

"The final curtain of mortals and gods?" Gawain looked at the opposite side with some doubts, "You mean..."

The Dragon God had seriousness in his eyes, and he looked into Gawain's eyes: "We already know several futures of people and gods on this planet - the sailors chose to destroy all the gods out of control and died in the civilization of the black trap. Destroyed by his own gods, and an unfortunate civilization that could not even resist natural disasters like the magic tide, in the process of development, he and his gods went to the end, and the last one... the eternal cradle of Tal Lund.

"Gawain Cecil, the wanderer, the above is all I have seen in these 1.87 million years, and all the developments of mortals and gods on this spiral orbit that is constantly entangled. Trajectory. But I want to hear your opinion now, in your opinion... is there another future between mortals and gods, a future... that no one has ever traveled before?"

Gawain's hand reaching for the oak cup on the table couldn't help but stop.

This is a question that he did not expect, and it is a question that is extremely difficult to answer in his opinion - he does not even think there will be an answer to this question, because even the gods cannot predict the development trajectory of civilization, how can he Can you describe it accurately?

But the Dragon God was still looking at him very seriously. As a god, he even showed unexpected expectations at this moment.

Maybe... the other party really thinks that Gawain, an "extraterritorial wanderer", can bring him some answers that go beyond the cruel rules of this world.

Gawain still picked up the oak cup and tasted the liquid in the cup. His mind was gradually letting go—he wanted to answer this question seriously, and after thinking, he finally gradually got the answer.

"None of the gods can be omniscient and omnipotent, and I can't do it, so I can't accurately describe or predict a future picture to you," he looked at the dragon god and said his answer, "but in my opinion , maybe we shouldn't put all of this into a tight 'frame'. The relationship between gods and mortals, the future of gods and mortals, all of this... should not be 'predestined', nor should there be a certain a pre-set position and a 'standard solution'."

The Dragon God looked at him: "I don't understand what you mean."

"Concrete cases, specific analysis, emancipating the mind, seeking truth from facts-respecting objective facts and following objective laws," Gao Wen said in one breath what he had been thinking about from a long time ago, but was only a vague direction of thinking until just now , "In my opinion, since the existence of gods is an objective fact, and your birth and operation is also an objective fact, then we cannot view this matter in a dogmatic way, but should respect the objective laws of all these.

"The sailor chose to destroy all the gods out of control. This was determined by the situation at the time. The civilization in the black trap will perish with the gods. This is determined by the laws of nature, but there is no natural law that stipulates that all gods can only Going one way, there is no evidence that these laws of nature as we know them are the 'all' rules of the world.

"Julu Amoen destroyed his divine position through the 'White Star Fall' incident, and used suspended animation to reduce the connection between himself and the faith chain, and now he can be said to have succeeded;

"Mirmina, the goddess of magic, broke away from her own divine position and used non-directional thoughts to reshape herself, and she is now close to success;

"There is a new-born god called the 'Upper Narrator' who has now been freed from the chains after a series of complicated events...

"None of these cases, the process seems to be replicable, but their very existence shows one thing: there is indeed another way to go.

"This is my view - gods and mortals can be enemies, or they can coexist, they can conflict for a short time, or they can reach a balance under certain conditions, and the key lies in how to achieve it in a rational, logical, and not dogmatic way. they.

"I am not a sailor, and I am not a rebel of the Gondor Empire in the past, so I do not think that all gods must be destroyed. On the contrary, after learning more and more truths, I am even more ...there is a certain respect.

"Because no matter what the final direction is, at least in the long history of civilization's ignorance to its rise, the gods have always sheltered mortals - just like your first story, a slow mother is a mother after all.

"But on the other hand, I also have to give priority to the survival of the mortal world, so in the face of the gods that cannot coexist, and the 'mad gods' that have been out of control, we still have only one choice..."

Gawain paused for a while, and the Dragon God showed the appearance of thinking, and after a brief thought, he broke the silence: "So, you neither want to end the myth, nor maintain it, neither want to choose opposition, nor simply In place of fixed dogma, you want to build a dynamic system that adjusts to reality in real time, and you believe that civilization can move forward even if the coexistence of gods and mortals is maintained..."

"Amoen is still alive, but Druid technology has developed to the point where it has almost overturned more than half of the classic dogmas, and Mirmina is still alive, and we are studying the use of external nervous systems to break through traditional spellcasting elements," Gawain said, "Of course, these are only small steps, but since these steps can be taken, it means that this direction is feasible—"

"It's only possible for the time being," said the Dragon God quietly, "have you ever thought that this balance is actually short-lived and fragile in the eyes of the gods - take what you said as an example, if people rebuild the druids Or magical beliefs, rebuilding the worship system, then these 'cross-border actions' that are currently going smoothly will still come to an abrupt end..."

"Even if Amoun and Miermina fall completely, as long as mortals rebuild their beliefs, new gods of nature and magic will still be born," Gawain said without hesitation, "so the crux of the problem is not In God, it is in man.”

"...Interesting statement," the Dragon God said calmly, "then how do you solve this 'the key lies in people' problem?"

"Expanding the wisdom of the people - what I am doing," Gawain said without hesitation, "replacing ignorance with reason is the most effective method at this stage. If before the chains are formed, everyone in the world will be If you know the principle of the chain, then the chain cannot be formed."

"It's not as easy as it sounds," the Dragon God suddenly laughed, but that smile didn't mean the slightest sarcasm, "You know what? Actually, you're not the first person who thought of doing this."

Gawain didn't speak, just looked at each other quietly.

"The last person who realized that people's wisdom can fight against the chain was a leader of civilization last season. The person who tried to use the civilization of the whole people to fight against the chain was a thinker about a million years ago. Four... or five amazing mortals who have been aware of certain 'principles' just like you and tried to act to induce change...

"But it's a pity that none of these great people made it."

Gawain listened to the calm description of the Dragon God. These are secrets that no one knows about except for some ancient existences, and they are things that mortals in the current era cannot imagine. However, in a sense, they are not. It didn't exceed his expectations.

One hundred and eighty-seven million years - there will always be warriors who go forward, there will always be other wise men and heroes.

Perhaps it was because of his too calm performance that the Dragon God was a little surprised. The latter paused after finishing the story, and then continued: "So, do you think you can succeed?"

"I want to confirm a question first - did they fail because there is something wrong with the road itself?"

"...I don't know, because no one gets to the end, they start too late, so no one can see how the road will end."

"So the road is still there," Gawain smiled, "someone has to walk it—perhaps there are other paths in the world, but unfortunately, mortals are creatures with limited strength and intelligence. , we can't go all the way, we can only choose one way to try. I choose to try this one - if it succeeds, it's good, if it fails, I just hope that others will have the opportunity to find out Another way out."

The Dragon God looked at Gawain quietly, and the latter also quietly responded to the gaze of the god.

"To my surprise," the Dragon God finally shook his head with a smile, "Actually at first I thought you would choose the route of the Navigator... You are closely related to those heritages, and you are most likely to dig out power from those heritages, even It's possible to call back that mighty fleet, but in all your thoughts, that legacy never comes."

"The Voyagers have left—whether they will come back or not, I'd rather assume they won't come back," Gawain said calmly, "They... are indeed powerful, so powerful that mortals on this planet are in awe, but In my opinion, their route may not be suitable for any race other than them.

"I did think about digging some power out of that legacy, but after learning about those 1.87 million years ago, I realized one thing—

"Some things, if you miss them, you will miss them. After all, mortals can rely on their own strength. After all, they still have to find their own way."

A faint holy brilliance floated over the hall, and a faint ethereal echo came from what seemed to be far away.

The Dragon God smiled, and did not make any further comments or questions. He just pointed to the snacks on the table: "Eat some, you can't eat it outside of Tallond."

Gawain did not shirk, he tasted a few unknown cakes, and then stood up.

"It's time for me to leave," he said. "Thank you for your hospitality."

"I'm very happy to have the opportunity to talk to people like this," the graceful and beautiful god also stood up. "I can't remember the last time I talked to people like this."

"Actually, it was just yesterday," Gao Wen's heart moved, and he actually wanted to make a joke with the gods, "I still talked about it with me."

The Dragon God was stunned for the first time.

In the next second, he laughed extremely happily.

It was completely different from the previous smiles that were holy but indifferent, gentle but alienated, and a happy smile from the heart.
