Chapter 2455 Going to the Hot Springs
Aqua was unconvinced, even though she was silent, she was still unconvinced. Then she looked at the people around her, and finally at Wiz. She realized that only the hundred-year-old lich Wiz could possibly refute Duran at this time. In fact, Aqua is older than Wiz. Unfortunately, when she preaches, she never creates better doctrines. Instead, she uses personal attacks to prevent believers from believing in the goddess of the younger generation. She is not good at debating in the first place.
Wiz was afraid of God's authority, so he asked Duran: "Even if God is a middleman, even if they have done a lot of bad things. But if God does wrong, it doesn't mean you are right. The belief in God has lasted for thousands of years. It has become a part of our lives. Even if they are middlemen, they must have their own meaning. On the contrary, your remarks have no basis and directly shake the millennium tradition. What if you are wrong? "
As expected of the former captain of the strongest adventurer team, Wiz also views problems very sharply. Just because God did something wrong does not mean that Duran is right. People often make the mistake of using other people's mistakes to prove their own correctness, but in fact there is no causal logic between other people's mistakes and their own correctness. Just because others are wrong does not mean that you are right, so it is unreasonable to use other people's mistakes to prove that you are right.
Duran has been emphasizing God's mistakes now, as if he wants to overthrow God, but there is no evidence that his theory is correct.
"Isn't life just about constant trial and error? How can people know if it's right or wrong from the beginning without foresight? You have to take some detours, and only after trial and error can you find a relatively correct path." Duran said: "So it's important It’s a choice, and God doesn’t give you a chance to choose.” This is also a commonplace point of view of Duran, emphasizing the importance of choice.
"I think it's pretty good, there's no need to choose a route that might be worse," Wiz said.
Aqua's face was full of gratitude now. Even though Wiz was a lich, she was worshiped by the goddess.
"It's understandable that you don't want to change your life, but you shouldn't, Wiz, because your life has already experienced a huge change. From a human to a lich, it can be said to be earth-shaking. Aren't you also living a good life? "Dulan said: "So when others choose the path of 'human beings believe in human beings', they will become better and better."
"Not necessarily, I'm just an exception." Wiz knew very well that she was special. She was already the top powerhouse among humans before she became a lich. At this time, her eyes were sharp, as if she had returned to the strongest adventure a hundred years ago. When fighting, he is strong, courageous, capable, and even a little cold.
Wiz is fully qualified to say this, because she is indeed a special case. So she doesn't agree with Duran's theory. She doesn't think that after making a choice, she can live a better life. She doesn't think that without middlemen, human beings can really be independent.
Humanity cannot live without God.
This is the spiritual shackles of a religious country. Even if some people shout that God is dead, these few people cannot shake the status of religion.
In another world, there is a state religion. The teachings of the Eris religion are orthodox religious ideas. There is heaven after death and the end of the world. Their morals and laws are all based on the unfounded heaven and the end of the world. Yearning for and fear of illusory things.
The education Du Lan received since he was a child naturally dislikes gods, so he thinks gods are middlemen. At the same time, he also feels that the people of other worlds who are bound by religion are very pitiful. Little did he know that in the eyes of the people in the other world, Dulan was the truly pitiful person because he had no faith.
The lack of faith is terrifying to the people of other worlds. After all, their morals and laws come from religion and faith. Without faith, there is no basis for being a human being. It is easy to deduce that Duran is not a human being at all.
Aqua's expression improved a lot and she said proudly, "You have nothing to say."
"I can cite more gods' persecution of other worlds, but you are right. God's cruelty does not prove that I am right. You have become accustomed to the existence of gods, and you are unwilling to do anything no matter whether gods are good or bad. If you want to make changes, then I can’t change your minds with empty words, I can only let the facts speak for themselves.”
Dulan thought that if he told everyone now that the Demon King of the Demon King Army was also a time traveler and was sent by God, they probably would not oppose God, but would worship God and fear God even more. After all, if you can't defeat them, just join them and become the lamb of the gods. Surrendering directly will only lose half the battle.
The sense of struggle of humans in other worlds cannot be overestimated.
"Hee hee." Aqua felt like she had won a great victory, and she instantly took the credit for the victory and attributed it to herself. It was obviously Wiz who succeeded in the debate, but she was chosen by Aqua, so the credit goes to Aqua.
"Okay, since you think gods are good, let's go to the religious city." Duran wanted to take them to Hot Springs, the most prosperous city of Axis Cult in Aqua.
Hot Spring City is a tourist city. It doesn't even have an adventurer's union. It's not big. The entire population is engaged in the service industry and specializes in serving customers who go to hot springs to relieve stress. This city is one of the few places in the kingdom that does not believe in the state religion of Eris. All the people believe in the Axis religion, and the religious atmosphere is very strong.
But everyone who has been there knows that the followers of Axis Cult are not normal in their minds, ranging from the elderly to children. Everyone in the hot spring town, as young as a few years old, has two faces, which is very strange.
Sato Kazuma thought that although Duran was a teacher, his education level was still very good. He either went to the dungeon or went to the hot springs. It was all practical education, and he would not let everyone study hard. If the teachers on Earth were all at Duran's level, he would not be tired of studying.
Hot springs, hot springs, Kazuma was looking forward to going to the hot springs. Even in the most difficult times, he did not forget to go to the big bathhouse to take a bath, and he was even more yearning for hot springs. Who doesn't like to soak in the slightly hot hot spring water to relax the body, relieve muscle fatigue, and eliminate mental tension?
Kazuma and his friends smiled at the thought of being able to relax comfortably soon.
Riding in a carriage, they encountered a group of migrating monster ostriches on the road, but it was not a big problem. The only problem was the undead creatures attracted by the goddess. Because they left the protection of the city wall and came to the wilderness, the goddess's leaked divine power constantly attracted undead creatures, especially at night when they could not fall asleep at all, and they had to cheer up to prevent themselves from being attacked by monsters.
Although the journey was not smooth, Kazuma endured it when he thought of going to the hot springs. Finally, we arrived at the hot spring city. From a distance, it looked like a fairyland surrounded by steam, with white mist floating from the hot springs and lights flashing in the mist, which was very beautiful.
Because it is a tourist city, the buildings are very gorgeous, and the residents are also very fashionable. Everyone has a comfortable smile on their face, which makes people feel the enthusiasm of the tourist city.
Everyone in the group was very happy, but this happiness could only last until the religious conflict broke out. Whether they did not believe in God or believed in Eris, they could feel the otherness of the Axis believers here.
