Chapter 2033 The Arrival of Ancient One (Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket!!! Please Subscribe!!! Please Recommend!!!)
Geer didn't know what art was, but when he saw the splendid buildings of the Vatican and the murals and reliefs between the building corridors, he still knew that these things were beautiful. It is recognized that the standard of beauty is a subjective concept as it varies from person to person and is influenced by culture, society, personal beliefs and values. Generally speaking, however, it is generally accepted that beauty is a combination of attractiveness, harmony, balance, elegance, naturalness, and flawlessness. Here's a more detailed explanation:
1. Attraction: The first element of beauty is attraction. A person or thing must be able to attract the attention and interest of others in order to be considered beautiful. Attractiveness can be reflected by a person's smile, posture, eyes, voice, appearance and other factors.
2. Harmony: The second criterion of beauty is harmony. The parts of a person or thing must harmonize with each other in order to be considered beautiful. This may involve color matching, shape design, texture selection, etc.
3. Balance: The third criterion of beauty is balance. The parts of a person or thing must be balanced in terms of weight, proportion, distribution, etc., in order to be considered beautiful. This balance can be reflected in the proportions of people's bodies and the design of objects.
4. Elegance: Elegance is also a standard of beauty. Elegance is a kind of temperament, which can be reflected through a person's manners, behavior, speech, etc. Elegance usually takes time and experience and is not something that can be achieved overnight.
5. Nature: Natural elements are also one of the standards of beauty. Natural beauty can be reflected in a person's physical features such as skin, hair, eyes, etc., or it can be reflected in nature, such as landscapes, buildings, etc.
6. Flawless: Finally, being flawless is also an important beauty standard. A person's appearance should not have obvious flaws or blemishes that would detract from his beauty.
These standards are not absolute, they are just generally accepted elements of beauty. In fact, beauty is a very subjective concept, and everyone has their own aesthetics and standards. In addition, as time and environment change, people's aesthetics may also change. Therefore, the standards of beauty are not set in stone.
Geer is a poor boy. Even if he gains strength and is shaking now, he is still just a 'nouveau riche'. Regarding art, he couldn't say how good it was, but beauty was beauty, and many things were common across the universe.
So Geer couldn't tell what the meaning of these works of art was and how much artistic value they had, but he knew that these things were very beautiful.
However, Geer understands one thing better...that is, these things require countless resources!
Geer thought of the altar of their tribe, which had always been the best-kept place for the entire tribe. Although the altar was still extremely crude compared to the Vatican church, compared to the productivity of the two, their tribe also had a dedication. Out of all.
Even if people starve to death, there can be no problem with the sacrifice.
One can only imagine how many people have lost everything since the construction of the Vatican!
These people use the name of the gods to make money everywhere. This thing... is only slightly better than the gods!
Thinking of this, Geer's attitude toward the Vatican suddenly changed from shock, appreciation, to disgust.
But overall, Geer still likes the earth.
So this disgust was not enough to make Geer murderous towards the Vatican.
But at this moment, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a little change around him.
The position where he stood did not change, the position of the light did not change, and the crowd of visitors around him did not change either.
But he felt isolated from the whole world.
Soon, Geer discovered that this was not a misunderstanding, and that he was indeed 'isolated'. Because he just discovered that a person passed directly through his body from behind and walked directly over.
Geer immediately wanted to catch the guy, thinking he was an enemy. But his hand also passed through that person's body, and at the same time, he found that others seemed unable to see him.
This feels weird.
It's like I've become a ghost!
Well, there are legends of ghosts in their world, too.
Kegel could clearly feel that he was still alive.
So...he quickly sensed where the problem was.
A bald man in a yellow robe stood not far from him and looked at him with a smile.
Geer transformed directly without any hesitation.
Streams of dark, viscous liquid gushed out of his body, a bit like petroleum... although Geer didn't know what petroleum was.
But after the liquid flowed out, the deformation Geer had imposed on himself was cancelled, and he returned to his original appearance. He has pale skin, a face without a nose (a bit like Voldemort), two tendrils on his head, and no hair (there is no such thing as hair in their family).
It looked extremely weird, and then the black slime formed a hooded windbreaker.
"Are you the god of this world?"
Geer thought that the hidden gods of this world had finally appeared... He did not launch an attack immediately. In fact, he just wanted to chat with the gods of this world, because he thought the gods of this world... were too generous.
He or she... Geer can now tell the gender of most people on Earth, but he is a little unsure about the one in front of him.
This god is so generous. At least he has never seen any god treat the mortals under his rule so openly.
"God?" Gu Yi raised an eyebrow.
Well, it was Ancient One who came. Under the rule of the Great Guardian, except for some powerful beings who are extremely good at hiding, any powerful being who comes to the earth will be sensed.
This is also one of Kama Taj's responsibilities, not to allow too powerful individuals to invade the earth.
So the Ancient One came here.
In fact, they discovered Geer very early, but they saw that Geer didn't seem to have any evil intentions. Gu Yi planned to take a look and decide how to deal with this outsider. After all, not all outsiders have malicious intentions.
However, many of Geer's actions puzzled Karma Taj. How could this guy care so much about religion and look for information about religion and gods everywhere.
In the end, Gu Yi decided to show up directly and talk to this outsider.
"We don't have gods here. The gods were driven out of this world a long time ago." Gu Yi said directly without hiding anything: "I am not a god, just a mage with magic."
"Mage?" Geer can understand this term, just like the shaman of their previous tribe... But Geer knows that those things are all lies. Gods will not let a mortal have extraordinary power unless that mortal is theirs. Bloodline.
"Yes. Please don't be nervous, outsider. I have no ill intentions, at least before you do damage, we don't plan to do anything to you. I just saw you, so I came to ask you about your purpose. We are here But there are very few outsiders. After all, the earth is still very remote in the universe.”
Geer didn't directly explain his purpose. He was not stupid.
"I...came to Earth to look for something. Subjectively, I have no ill intentions towards Earth. I even like it here."
Geer didn't lie.
He indeed has no subjective ill will towards the earth.
He just came to find the Heart of the Ancient God.
"Can you tell me about the gods being driven out of the earth?"
Gu Yi was a little surprised: "As an outsider, why don't you introduce yourself first? This is basic courtesy."
Geer was a little embarrassed. He really didn't do enough in this regard. After all, he was just an ordinary person before, and he didn't need etiquette in the tribe. If every time he saw a priest, he had to kneel down as etiquette... To be honest, the word etiquette , I only found out about it from the gods after I got the Black Death Sword.
"I'm sorry...my name is Geer, and here...I don't know the name of the world I was born in. It was a world ruled by gods. Those gods were extremely cruel. All my family members died because of them, so I rose up and was hunted down by many other gods, so I came here because of that. There are no gods in this planet... If you didn't lie to me, so I am very interested in how you drove the gods out of this planet... This kind of thing is definitely the greatest blasphemy on the planet where I was born. There is no such thing. God, there would be no us, and without the guidance of the gods, we would perish... I have always been taught this way..."
In fact, Geer didn't want to say so much, but he didn't know why when he saw the bald head in front of him, he actually felt a rare sense of calm, as if standing in front of him was his mother, an elder, a wise elder, and his vigilance was lifted. , a desire to talk that he didn't know how to describe made him speak out unconsciously.
Now that I have said it, I don’t care to say more.
"But...those gods have gone too far. They regard us as ants and don't care about our life or death at all. They even deliberately bring disasters to us. They are gods, and we have been supporting them! Things should not be like this, This is nothing like what they taught me. We believe in God and they protect us, but...why?"
Ancient One looked very sad... Ancient One could not see through other people's thoughts. Even if she is a self-respecting mage, she cannot see through a person's thoughts. She has not found any such spells yet. But the Ancient One lived a long time!
It's been so long that Gu Yi doesn't want to live anymore.
You know, living a long time is not a good thing. Especially for someone like her who has huge responsibilities, to be honest, Ancient One is already very tired.
She had long wanted to die.
At the same time, the longer she lives, the more she has experienced, so much that she can see through a person without using any special abilities.
She could see that Geer was filled with sadness and anger when he said these words.
This is why she pities the other person.
The saddest thing for a person is not the external things, but that everything he insists on inside is broken!
This thing is more sad than physical pain.
"I think I know your origin." Ancient One said still calmly: "Pantheon... right?"
Geer immediately became alert.
Ke Guyi waved his hand: "Relax, they and I are not the same group, and speaking of it, I also hate them. At the same time, this is also the reason why they were driven away."
Geer heard something: "They... came from the earth..."
"Yes, they were driven away from the earth a long time ago. They were originally born on this planet. Perhaps those great people back then saw through this, so they must be driven away."
When Geer heard this, waves of emotions welled up in his heart that he didn't know how to express.
I'm happy, a little bit, because those so-called gods are actually just lost dogs.
There is resentment, a little bit, because these guys were actually driven away from the earth. In other words, after they were driven away, they harmed us?
He was confused, a little bit, because he knew that this could not be blamed on the people on Earth, but he didn't know who to blame.
"So... can you tell me what happened?" Gel felt his throat was a little disturbed.
Gu Yi did not refuse, but walked to a mural, where there was a bench. Gu Yi sat down first, and then patted the seat beside him: "Come, sit down and talk, this is a very long story."
...
The story is very long.
Gel listened carefully, and only now did he ask: "So those... immortals, forgive me, this word is difficult to read. Immortals, saw the weakness of the gods, so they drove them away and returned the world to mortals?"
"You can say that. Compared with us humans, they are too powerful. And their power is innate, so they will form absolute power. Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption. In every era, freedom and common sense face four major challenges: the strong's desire for power concentration, the poor's resentment of wealth inequality, the ignorant's yearning for utopia, and the non-believers confuse freedom with indulgence. The immortals are all wise men. They can see the disasters that the gods will bring to the earth, so they choose to expel them and prevent them from returning to the earth forever."
Gu Yi still talked about it.
Ke Geer didn't understand: "Why not kill them? Wouldn't there be no problem in this way?"
If the immortals are really as powerful as Gu Yi said, why don't they kill all the gods, so that nothing will happen afterwards! Then his... Anyway, he is very angry.
Ancient One looked at Gel: "Because the immortals are wise. Have you ever seen a wise man punishing others for mistakes they didn't make? The immortals saw the weaknesses of the gods, but they didn't make the mistakes they made now. The immortals are not omniscient and omnipotent, and they can't see what will happen ten thousand years later. So at that time, the gods didn't make any mistakes. For them, driving the gods out of the earth was already a very serious matter, especially under the premise that they didn't make any mistakes. They just had to do this for the mortals to be able to develop freely. In the end, it's still the immortals who are sorry for the gods. How could they kill them? Isn't that a mistake on top of a mistake?"
