Chapter 189 Union
Among the main raw materials for making the Pen of Lies, there are the blood of the Aesir, the golden fleece, the sea water of the sea of death, and the stone of Elfheim.
Among them, the blood of the Asa protoss is Loki's own blood, and Loki's identity is very noble. He is the brother of the Lord God Odin, and the preciousness of his blood can be imagined.
In addition, the main body of the pen of lies is made of Typhon's descendant: the most powerful feather on the harpie Harpie, which can extract the power of the ancient god Typhon. .
As for the Golden Fleece, the sea water of the Dead Sea, and the Elfheim Stone are also very rare extraordinary items, and the power in them is also indispensable to the newly awakened Athena.
In addition to eating a full meal, people need to take in different trace elements to thrive.
When the cook is cooking, if you only put the same seasoning as salt, you can of course serve it on the table, but you need to add various seasonings to turn it into a variety of delicious foods.
In addition to the worship of the most important will power, the gods also need the injection and reconciliation of various extraordinary powers in order to make their own power more powerful!
Athena's recovery In this apocalyptic era, it is very difficult to regain her former glory. The lie Fang Linyan brought her at this time may not have an immediate effect in a short period of time, but There is no doubt about its future potential expansion.
If Athena's development limit was only ten before, after so many lies, its development limit would become fourteen or fifteen!
Not only that, the most powerful power in the pen of lies is that it comes from the priesthood of the evil god Loki: lies, which contains the power to turn lies into truth.
Athena herself is also one of the twelve main gods of Olympia. As long as she can integrate the laws of power, although she can't get involved in the priesthood of lies, she can gain a new power: that is the oracle!
For example, if God said that there should be light, then there really is light... This is a typical oracle.
Or to put it more aptly, that is, follow the law.
Of course, this statement must be based on Athena's own divine power. At present, only some small wishes can be realized, and basically it will not exceed the scope of divine arts that the high priest can perform.
For example, the high priest can only perform third-order magic at the highest, so the power of the oracle is limited to the third-order magic, but it is better than flexibility.
After the high priest got the pen of lies, he immediately came to the statue of the goddess for the first time, and then sacrificed it. The statue of the goddess immediately shone brightly, and then directly began to digest, absorb and decompose this sacrifice with all his strength. taste.
***
And after Fang Linyan sent out this lie, he was already quite hurt.
Although this thing has many usage restrictions, and the usage area is also very narrow, it is a powerful golden plot equipment no matter what!
But to be honest, the high priest's previous arrangement also made his eyes shine, as if he had found a brand new way.
The final result of fighting alone is definitely not as strong as forming a team.
Or to put it more bluntly, if Fang Linyan had one more striker, the efficiency would be increased by 20%.
Fang Linyan had always taken precautions against the high priest before, because he was afraid of forming a situation where the weak and the weak would be strong, and the other party would completely control him, so he just regarded it as the other side of the transaction.
Therefore, when Fang Linyan considered his own strength, he did not consider Athena.
But now Fang Linyan has a certain understanding of the situation in the whole world, and knows that there are evil gods like Oda Nobunaga in this world. Not only that, but if Athena wants to develop her own beliefs, she must face God and God in Europe. such a great enemy as Allah.
Under such external pressure, it must be extremely important for him to be Athena's only ally, and to bring sacrifices to enhance his recovery from time to time.
Correspondingly, I also obtained a powerful skill from Athena, which means that the cooperation between the two parties will continue in a short time, or even a long time.
This can be expected, at least until the external pressure has dissipated.
Therefore, Fang Linyan's mind has changed a bit now, and he has repositioned the relationship between Athena's party and changed it from a transaction object to a cooperation object.
In that case, of course he would not be polite. After thinking about it clearly, he went directly to the high priest Tritogonia.
As a result, the news was that the high priest was retreating, but the rest did not dare to neglect him, so he was received by another priest: Evelina.
This high priest was the one who took over the previous position of Lescari. When the high priest was away, three high priests presided over the affairs, and Evelina was one of them.
When she gets along with the rest of the people, she has a kind of indifference that rejects people thousands of miles away, but she still treats Fang Linyan with enthusiasm.
Fang Linyan didn't say much, and said straight to the point:
"I don't know how many devout believers the goddess has now?"
According to the degree of belief, believers are often divided into six levels: ordinary, shallow believers, believers, devout believers, mad believers, and gods.
This is one of the mad believers needless to say.
A devout believer's belief in the goddess is almost the same as that of a seventeen- or eight-year-old boy who has just pursued the girl of his dreams.
Therefore, devout believers are already a very important part of the spiritual believers.
And Evelina said simply:
"My god is so powerful that there are already 23,041 devout believers and mad believers!"
Fang Linyan was slightly taken aback. Athena's followers expanded much faster than he thought.
However, this is the city of Athens, a city that prospered in the name of the goddess, and the legend of the goddess has been passed down from ancient times to the present, which has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and has enough soil.
What's even more rare is that this is the era of the end of the law, but there are still gods such as the high priest who walk on the earth and show miracles from time to time. In the absence of competitors, it is understandable for more than 20,000 mad believers. .
After listening to Evelina's words, Fang Linyan said:
"How many of these devout believers and mad believers are involved in mechanical manufacturing and processing. Can you count them?"
Evelina said:
"About two hours is enough."
Fang Linyan nodded and said:
"It's like this, I need to establish a research institute related to machining on my side, and the things processed in it may involve very secret information, so the loyalty of recruiting employees is very important... The high priest suggested I recruit from among the believers."
Hearing that this was the high priest's suggestion, Evelina immediately moved:
"So that's how it is! Okay, I'll investigate right away."
Fang Linyan suddenly said again:
"By the way, Priest Evelina, I'm not very clear about the relationship between divine power, wishing power, and priesthood, so I would like to ask you to clear up your doubts."
Evelina pondered for a while and said:
"A giant snake kills its prey when food is abundant in summer, and goes into hibernation in winter when food is scarce. You should have heard of this kind of thing."
Fang Linyan nodded and said:
"Well, my teacher told it when I was in elementary school."
Evelina said seriously:
"For the gods, the willpower generated by the prayers of the believers is food, and this is the basis for the survival of the gods."
"If there is a lack of willpower, the gods will gradually become weaker, and finally enter a dormant state in order to minimize consumption. If the willpower continues to decrease, even the gods will eventually die."
"This process is actually similar to the hibernation of giant snakes hunting."
Athena's incarnation includes a serpent, and she is praised for her splendor as a snake, so the metaphor of Evelina is not blasphemous.
Even the origin of the gods in Eastern civilization is inextricably linked with snakes. For example, Nuwa and Fuxi are both half-human and half-snakes. Another example is the Chinese dragon culture, which is actually evolved from snakes.
Fang Linyan nodded immediately after hearing her words:
"It turns out that it is, yes, very clear."
Evelina said:
"And divine power is equivalent to the power derived from a person's fullness of food. The power that a child and an adult burst out after fullness are completely different."
"Correspondingly, the power that a new god burst out during the growth period is completely different from the power bursting out of a mature deity."
Fang Linyan nodded thoughtfully:
"I understand, but although the size of the power is very important, the skills of using the power are equally important. For example, the skills of my gods using divine power are not comparable to the evil gods like Oda Nobunaga. The same unit divine power, The lethality that the goddess uses to burst out is estimated to be several times that of the rest of the gods."
Evelina cast an approving look and said:
"Yes, exactly."
"And the priesthood is equivalent to the profession of human beings. My god is the god of war (strategy), the god of wisdom, and the skills in this field will definitely have an advantage."
"But gods without related clergy are not necessarily weak in some areas, just like professional soldiers may not be able to win civilians in battle. It's a reason."
***
After figuring out the various relationships, Fang Linyan went straight back to his room and started his work.
And Evelina's efficiency is also very fast. It only took an hour and a half to send more than a dozen resumes directly to Fang Linyan.
"These are people who have been in the mechanical finishing industry and have no issues with loyalty."
Fang Linyan nodded, then looked at the resume very simply, and then wrote a few questions to her directly and asked her to take the questionnaire.
