Chapter 202 The Source of God's Power

For a lunatic like Tang Yin, he doesn't believe in God, he only believes in his fists.

If the world is wrong, then defeat this world.

It is this idea that makes the Toril world pan-conscious and cautiously choose not to directly "bounce" Tang Yin out of this world.

This is very dangerous.

Oghma looked at Tang Yin's smiling expression and felt the danger.

It is not the chaotic and disorderly look of a demon or a madman who wants to destroy the world, but he wants to change the world from the bottom of his heart and make the world what he wants.

A sober madman! What's more terrifying is that he still has this power!

It is impossible for such a person to be born in a pasture of gods like Faerun.

"I heard that you have a way to go to the kingdom of Umberley and Talos?" Tang Yin said to Oghma straight to the point.

There are only so many people and so many gods on the continent of Faerun. If the God of Hot Pot has one more believer, other gods will have one less believer.

The essence of this task is to squeeze the living space of other gods.

A god with 100,000 followers is not a small church.

Since the living space of other gods is squeezed, it is better to start with Umberley and Talos. Although Talos does not have many followers, Umberley has many followers, although many of them are pan-believers who fear Umberley.

In the main material plane, it is difficult to cause fatal damage to gods, so Tang Yin wants to go to Umberley's kingdom of God. But if Talos, Umberley's backer, is not dealt with, after killing Umberley, Talos is likely to devour Umberley's priesthood and residual divine power and become more powerful!

How could Tang Yin do such a brainless thing. Kill Talos first, then kill Umberley, and let the flag of the hot pot god fly over the sea!

Since he, Tang Yin, has offered such conditions, Umberley does not want to be decent, so give her decent!

Talos will never give up, what a coincidence, he, Tang Yin, is also vindictive!

The Kingdom of Umberley is in the Abyss. There are many ways to go to the Abyss from the main material plane. The most direct way is to let the wizard build a teleportation array. But these methods are not suitable for Tang Yin and Zhou Changliu.

They are too strong.

The Kingdom of Umberley at least has a general location. And the location of the Kingdom of Talos is only known by some powerful gods.

"I do have it." Ogma thought for a while and said, "But..."

"But what?"

"But although you are strong, it is unwise to rashly reach the Kingdom of Talos!" Ogus said.

"Heh..." Tang Yin sneered, "Can you still help?"

"Shangti'a, Lashanda, Misra, Silvanus and I all want to help you." Ogma said slowly.

When they talked, the power of God covered them all the time to prevent their conversation from being heard by others.

"And me." Shu Ni put down the chopsticks in her hand, wiped her mouth and said.

"You six can't beat one? You want to trick me into using this knife to help you?" Tang Yin looked at these cunning gods and continued to sneer.

"For gods, rashly attacking the other side's kingdom is very dangerous for both sides. Each of us has our own enemies, and one move can affect the whole body! What's more, there is an existence that does not allow us to launch such a large-scale war of gods!" Ogma sighed and said.

Tang Yin knew that they were talking about AO, the God of Gods.

In the world of Toril, AO is the God of Gods, commanding and controlling all gods, and can be regarded as the creator god.

There are two kinds of gods in Faerun. One kind is called "ancient gods" by Tang Yin, which means that they are relatively old and have very powerful powers or abilities. For example, gods representing natural substances such as elements, magic, the sun, and death, the faith of mortals is icing on the cake for them, and it doesn't matter whether there is one or not. For example, Arcadia, the god of wind elements, doesn't pay much attention to his believers.

They are more about fulfilling the duties (ministerial duties) given to them by the God of Gods, Io (AO), and becoming the foundation of the existence of this world.

The goddess of magic has changed for several generations, and the biggest responsibility is to maintain the existence of the magic network, or to be the magic network itself, rather than spreading faith. The god of death is like water, and the iron Jaeger is not to mention. The sun god Amaunator died and came back to life, but the sun did not go out or have a helium flash.

Corresponding to the "old gods" are those born from human social actions, and are called "new gods" by Tang Yin.

The birth of the "new gods" is more complicated. Their divine fire comes from the gift of more powerful gods, or inherits the duties of some "old gods".

If there are no people or intelligent life in the entire universe, these "new gods" will have no value to exist, which is the most obvious difference from the "old gods".

If you find a comparison for the "new gods", Tang Yin feels that it is a bit like the concretization of some concepts of civilization. These "new gods" are like a person with magnified emotions, or a person with strong power and very paranoid.

In the setting of DND, there is a sentence in many games, "When the gods have not yet appeared".

It can be seen that there is civilization first, and then there are gods.

For example, Bane, the god of tyranny, will only appear when civilization develops to a certain level. Primitive people can't even get enough to eat, so how can there be a basis for tyranny.

Another example is the description of the worshippers of the god of death, Melkor, in "Faith and Incarnation": The task of these Melkor worshippers is to ensure that the people of Toril both fear and respect death. In order to strengthen the power of Melkor, they will spread rumors that anyone who touches one of his priests will die.

This passage perfectly reveals the source of power of the DND gods, which is belief. Rumors are a trigger for "belief". As long as enough people believe in this rumor, the power of the gods will become stronger, and they may really become "dead at the touch".

If there is no civilization in the entire world of Toril, then these "new gods" will have no value to exist, and can only fall into sleep until they die.

And the "ancient gods" that make up the world, such as elements, the sun, and magic, will continue to exist. Only when the world perishes will they disappear.

In Toril today, civilization is moving forward steadily, but it does not threaten the gods. In the eyes of the gods, this is a period of stable faith. It is not worth the loss to carry out a large-scale war of gods.

The input and income are not proportional.

But with an outsider like Tang Yin, it's just right to make enemies with Talos, isn't it?

"In that case, tell me how to get to Talos and the location of the Kingdom of Umberley. I'll handle it myself." Tang Yin knew what these people were thinking, but he didn't mind. Because, at this time, their interests were the same.

The enemy of the enemy is not necessarily a friend, but at least they can cooperate.

This group of people came to deliver the map.
