Chapter 1008 God’s Destruction
"It was demolished like this. What a pity." Someone said regretfully. But the real feeling is that I don't have much regret, just some emotion.
Fen explained in a rare way: "This kind of power that gathers everyone's thoughts, if you can't touch it, don't touch it. Unless you want to become unlike yourself."
After thinking about it, Lin said: "But the power of the elemental spirit that you plan to obtain, now it seems, isn't it the same thing?"
Fen was stunned for a moment and then said: "The two seem to be the same, but in fact there are some differences. Although the elemental spirit also brings together the thoughts of all the elves in the earth elemental plane, it is extensive. The godhead is centered around Once a concept takes shape, it will eventually be swallowed up by the concept and no self will exist.”
"Aye, do you know the difference between awareness and obsession?" Lin said thoughtfully. Then he gave up thinking about overly complicated religious and philosophical issues, which after all was what he was not good at.
On the contrary, the robots were more open-minded than Lin imagined. After their godhead was broken, they only expressed regret, but no one cursed. It means that they have no position to curse, and the only one who can get along with it is Hef Queen, but she is the calmest among all the robots. Even when her godhead was still intact, she didn't reveal a trace of desire.
As if she sensed someone's curiosity about her, the mini-mechanical girl sitting on Lin's shoulder turned to face the magician from the Lost Land and asked: 'What's wrong? ’
'You don't seem to care about the broken thing? ’
’ Borrowing other people’s power and then becoming a slave to it is something I don’t even bother to do. Maybe if Vulkan had known about it earlier, he wouldn't have chosen this way. ’
What I said is full of revelations and gossip. However, Lin didn't intend to talk in depth at the moment, because under the night starry sky, the power and fluctuations related to that divine power could no longer be found. And Haggiri also fell from the sky after destroying his godhood.
Halfway through Haggiri's fall according to gravity, Lin used the flash technique to recover the short sword that made all the robots look at him. At the same time, the night starry sky was simply lifted, allowing the robots shrouded in it to resume communication with the outside world.
The matter of destroying the godhead did not cause much trouble among the robots. At least they are not as greedy as humans, because I like that thing very much, even though it does not belong to me, but whoever destroys it will have a deep hatred for me. Because sooner or later it will be mine. ’ To have a grudge against someone for such a nonsensical reason.
Of course, it is unclear how many factors were involved because they thought they could not afford to offend the man who had just participated in the God Slaughter, so they generously planned to settle the matter.
However, when Lin opened the night sky, he saw an incredible scene. Iron Wall, the fortress city that was bright and beautiful before the battle, now seems to have experienced hundreds of years of wind and frost and has become dilapidated. Even the members of the Iron Wall Army, who were originally majestic and unified in their armed forces, seemed to have been drained of their energy and energy, and their bodies were stooped and looked abnormally old.
"What's going on?" Lin was so surprised that he didn't bother to use the elemental elven language so that others could understand him.
There may be many robots who can understand the common language of Midi, but the only one who understands the questions and can also answer the scene in front of him is Fen, a lich. She said: 'It seems that although our Majesty did not establish his divine kingdom in the void, his power still eroded the city and the elemental creatures living in it. Haifu, is this the reason why you left in the first place? ’
The mini-mechanical girl who was named to ask the question did not dare to raise her eyebrows in front of the magician who could face Steel Vulcan. She answered frankly: 'Although I would like to say that I am so foresight, in fact, I left the iron wall because I was unwilling to lose. But after I left, I found that I was entangled by a force that disgusted me. But it took a lot of time to expel that power and completely get rid of its influence. ’
This can be regarded as a joint warning from Fen and Hefquin. Someone couldn't help but twist the handle of a certain knife with his index thumb, raised it in front of him and stared at it carefully, looking at it carefully.
"What are you thinking about? The rest. If you look at me with such fiery eyes, I will be embarrassed."
"I want to see if you have been 'contaminated' or bathed in 'divine grace'. If so, I think I should stay away from you."
Haggiri said proudly: "What are you talking about? I kill without causality, so that little Pogami can't even try to influence me."
Oh, there is no cause and effect for killing people!
But before he was too busy complaining about this short sword, Lin remembered another thing and asked the lich next to him with a slight worry. "Did we just kill a god? Is he really dead?"
Fen gave a definite answer: "Dead. The dead can no longer be dead. Are you doubting it? You really killed a god, alive."
There is no such scene of flesh and blood, and the blood is scattered everywhere, which will give someone a strong sense of unreality. But no matter how untrue it was, Lin still didn't have an intuitive understanding of the influence of the gods' demise. Therefore, I asked: "Then, will there be any impact on the Lost Land?"
"What kind of impact do you think it will have?" Fen asked.
"Well, it seems that the believers feel unwell. Even the divine power backfires, and they spontaneously combust without fire in broad daylight and lose their lives. I don't know what other possible symptoms there are. Why don't you tell me? explain."
With an expression of hatred, Fen said angrily: "The situation you mentioned may happen, but it will only happen to a very small number of people and will not happen on a large scale. After all, Vulcan's priesthood is just a subordinate god. I doubt whether He has any priests directly subordinate to him in Lost Land. If he is just an ordinary believer, he will not feel any discomfort. Gods are such a dispensable existence to mortals. Do you feel that It’s ironic.”
The Lich's remarks are not so much deviant as they are breaking someone's understanding of the world where gods really exist and the barriers and connections between humans and gods. In fact, the two are not that close.
Looking at someone's shocked and disbelieving expression, Fen continued: "I killed many old gods. They were all sun gods, moon gods, star gods, mountain gods, and sea gods. Are they dead? The sun Just disappear, the moon disappears, and the stars no longer shine. I don’t think so. The old gods in the past were born based on the thoughts of mortals. The new gods of today steal the achievements of mortals’ thoughts. And Regardless of whether they die or not, whether they exist or not, the sun still rises in the east and sets in the west, and the world still operates. So with them or without them, is there any difference? Most people can't notice the difference."
The words were supposed to end here, but Fen felt inexplicably depressed and said: "In fact, when most mortals don't know that a certain god has died, if they continue to praise its name, it won't be long before they lose their godhead." , will also condense again and create a new god. Or other people who have stolen the godhead will be assimilated by this huge idea, making people become like the god in everyone's imagination, inheriting that god. Name. So this is a ghost that can’t be killed."
...Okay, actually it’s pretty stupid when you think about it. It’s up to an atheist to ask an anti-theist what the consequences of killing gods will be. The former cannot imagine any possibility, while the latter definitely means that everyone will die. What a waste of emotion.
Lin decided that he no longer cared about the life or death of that god. At most, I can just return to the Lost Land and inquire about the relevant developments. On the other hand, the iron wall left behind and the elemental creatures living inside do not need the care of human magicians. The robots already have a fairly mature collection process, and they can handle the remaining elemental creatures very well.
