Chapter 3118 Conferred God Altar
Of course, Joan knew that pretending to be a ghost could only deter the colonists for a while, but it was not a long-term solution.
However, the border conflict is too involved, involving all aspects of the two countries' political, economic, geographical relations, and cultural traditions. It will not be an overnight effort to resolve this complicated contradiction. Before he finds a better way, he can That's all there is to do.
With complicated emotions, Joan left this vibrant and disputed land, and cast a spell to teleport directly to Stone Pillar City.
As soon as he walked out of the teleportation array, Joan heard tinkling knocks. Following the reputation, what is displayed in front of you is a busy construction site.
The old site of Shizhu Town has been enlarged by at least ten times, and construction is underway. Half of the city wall has been repaired, and it is beginning to show its grandeur. Scaffolding can be seen everywhere in the city, and tall buildings are about to rise, most of which are office buildings of government departments.
As the capital of a country, the political and cultural center must of course have infrastructure commensurate with the capital.
The expansion and renovation project of Stone Pillar City was designed and planned by a team of engineering mages from the Far East, and the construction workers were recruited locally.
Along the way, Joan noticed that the original landmark building in Shizhu Town, the Stonehenge that has existed since ancient times, has also changed its appearance.
The old tree "Master Gray" of Ilminsur, which was rooted in the center of Stonehenge, has been moved to the open space outside Stonehenge, and an altar made of white marble is being built in the vacated place.
Joan was watching intently from the side, when suddenly there was the sound of hurried footsteps behind him, and then a pair of hands stretched out from behind, covering his eyes.
"Guess who I am?"
The girl's clear and melodious voice couldn't suppress her cheerful smile.
Joan secretly felt funny.
We are people with "eyes in the back of the head" in the literal sense. If you play this little trick with me, won't you narrow the road?
Suddenly bent over and shrunk, he couldn't help saying "over the shoulder", throwing the person behind him to the ground.
"Ouch!"
Big brother Haakon fell down and sat on the ground, clutching his butt and grinning.
"You brothers and sisters are both grown up, why are you still playing such childish tricks?"
Joan pulled Haakon up and scolded angrily.
"It's all Slude's fault, it's her bad idea!"
Haakon patted the dust off his butt, and betrayed his sister without hesitation.
"Hey! It's very dangerous, fortunately, it's not me who is responsible for covering my eyes."
"Iron Rose of Shizhu Town" said with a gleeful smile.
Haakon was stunned for a moment, then realized that his sister had tricked him, and he hummed angrily.
Joan hugged the Walsong brothers and sisters who had been reunited for a long time, and told about the encounters of the past year, feeling a little bit like a world away.
Slude saw that he was very interested in the white and gorgeous altar, so he took the initiative to reveal: "The altar in the center of Stonehenge is specially built for Ms. Valentina, and the ceremony of apotheosis will be held here tomorrow!"
"After the Conferred God Ceremony is over, this place will become a new scenic spot, spreading the reputation of our Stone Pillar City all over the world." Hakon imagined excitedly.
"Why did you set up the God Conferred Altar in the center of Stonehenge? Is there any saying here?"
Joan inquired curiously.
"Well, let's start with prehistoric times."
An old laugh suddenly came from not far away.
Joan turned to look at "Master Gray", bowed to the old man, and led the Walsong brothers and sisters to the ancient tree to listen to the old prophet's story.
"In ancient times, the twilight of the gods descended, and the old god system of Vales was replaced by the new god system. The 'Winter of Fenbulle' brought the winter catastrophe that lasted thousands of years to this world."
"On the snow-covered land, only a very small number of human beings survived, living in places sheltered by the World Tree, and surviving the long winter."
"Stonehenge is the place where the world tree 'Yggdrash' took root. Later, the great mother left here, but a seed left behind developed into a sapling, and replaced her to prop up the 'Eternal Spring Barrier' and continue to protect this place. A shelter." Gray Master recalled.
"Old man, you have told this old-fashioned story no less than 800 times. The little sapling left by the World Tree is your old man!"
Haakon grabs the spoiler.
"Hmm~ Don't interrupt, my lord, I haven't gotten to the point yet!" Gu Shu said angrily, "Although our great mother has left this place long ago, there is still some divinity in the Stonehenge where she took root. Save."
"The World Tree is actually the 'God of Nature' of Vales Tianyu, but her kingdom of God is not located in the outer plane like other gods, but the land where you and I are standing at the moment."
"The world of Vales... is the kingdom of God of the World Tree?"
It was the first time Joan heard this statement, and she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart, both surprised and moved.
"Yes, this planet is the mother's kingdom of God. All living beings born on this land, regardless of beauty, ugliness, good or evil, are all children of the World Tree. From this perspective, all of you and I are brothers and sisters. .”
Brothers and sisters Joan and Walsung fell silent, and they all felt admiration for the "World Tree". However, thinking of all living beings who are also descendants of the world tree, slaughtering each other for various reasons and fighting endlessly, this is certainly a kind of sadness, but it also reflects the law of heaven of natural evolution and survival of the fittest.
The great divinity of the World Tree "Yggdrash" is manifested in the infinite cycle of the rotation of the seasons and the birth and death of all things.
"The World Tree is the 'God of Nature' in the world of Vales, and is also known as the 'Mother of the Earth', and the priesthood of 'Life and Harvest' pursued by Ms. Valentina is precisely related to nature, my child Guys, have you discovered the mystery of this?"
Master Gray deliberately kept it a secret.
Qiao An nodded understandingly.
"Ms. Valentina's divinity fits perfectly with the divinity of the World Tree. She built an altar where the World Tree took root and held a deification ceremony, so that she can absorb the natural divinity left by the World Tree in Stonehenge. Improve your godhead, maybe you will be accepted by the 'Mother of the Earth', join the 'Natural God System' created by World Tree, and become the 'Daughter of the Earth'."
"As expected of a smart little mage, what you said is not bad at all." Master Gray smiled approvingly.
"However, there is a problem here!" Slude couldn't help raising his voice, "We all know that Ms. Valentina is a close friend of Emperor Roland I of the Far East, and her chance to ascend to the throne cannot be separated from the full help of His Majesty the Emperor. And His Majesty the Emperor is a voter of the Goddess of Destiny Syndra, after Ms. Valentina entered the 'Pantheon', shouldn't it be reasonable to join the 'Destiny God System'?"
