Chapter 368 The World of Mortals
For any religion, heresies are more disgusting than opponents. In the eyes of traditionalists, their interpretation of doctrines and the discovery of new things will make religion lose its "purity" and cause believers to fall into divisions.
This is like the most terrible terminal illness is cancer, but the mutation of normal cells has a terrible proliferation. When the degree of internal mutation reaches a certain level, at least a person cannot survive, and even if it can be saved, the cut part will also die. Let his vitality be greatly injured.
In this world where there is a true God, the heresy of the church will interpret and comment on the teachings of the true God, and even cause changes in priesthood and belief. Exploration and re-interpretation, but also cause large or small divisions within the church.
Some will directly touch the bottom line, make the true god angry, and directly send divine punishment.
While in Sulfur Mountain City, a villain did an experiment. He successfully brainwashed a demon, making him practice according to the procedures of a regular paladin because he was a paladin who believed in the holy light. holy light.
Although in the next moment, it was turned into ashes by the holy light burning from the inside out, but just this phenomenon can make the most devout believers throw the teachings of the God of Holy Light into the trash.
"Holy light is bestowed by the God of Holy Light? Even the mortal enemy, the devil, gives Holy Light. The God of Holy Light is either a fool or a blind man. Maybe other gods are also..."
Gods cannot make mistakes, because making mistakes will show that they are not fundamentally different from mortals. The gods are sublime, and the tall mortals can only experience the spirit of the gods from a few words of the oracle, that's because as long as they get close. If you see it clearly, you will naturally lose your sense of awe. Then, the so-called pure faith will no longer exist.
Most people in this world still cannot simply believe in a certain concept or a certain belief like Roland. Their beliefs always revolve around a certain personal god, and they are obviously mortals who are bound to make mistakes. But I hope that the gods will not make mistakes and will always be right. It is worth everything they entrust.
"While entrusting everything to an existence that I haven't seen clearly, while being a mortal but pretending to be holy, which one is more ridiculous?"
This was Roland's mockery at the time.
As for the information about the true god, only a very small number of them have been mastered by the strong. At the level of ordinary people, what they know is always what the pastor said.
"The true gods are wise and great. They watch the mortal world from the high sky and protect mortals..."
The "Shame of Soros" in the north only proved that there is no essential difference between order and chaos,
It is precisely this kind of opposition that leads to the endless jihad and shakes the foundation of the clergy's beliefs, and Ruolian's "true gods can be easily fooled, they may not be smarter than that stupid Li Goudan next door to your house" is known to the world . The foundation of belief of mortals will also be shaken.
It is foreseeable that if this information is also thrown into the sun, it will cause devastating results. In the worst case, it is even possible to see meteor showers (the fall of the Kingdom of God) every now and then.
The reason why Roland has not thrown this big killer into the sun is because he is not sure how much impact the counterattack after the outbreak of the crisis of faith will have. , A large number of gods fell like dumplings, and it seemed that there was no need to fight the jihad.
But when one of his paladins fell into a crisis of faith. After thinking twice, Roland still gave her the relevant information. It is expected that she will be able to get rid of the excessive dependence on the Personality God, and that she will be able to create her own path, and as a gift, there are also some personal insights of Roland on the law and the mysteries of the true God.
And there is a famous saying that says, "I only told one person, but it was passed on from ten to ten, and it became a secret known throughout the country." Well, it should be "If you tell anyone the secret, then Secrets are destined to cease to be secrets."
In this world, knowledge represents power, but it does not only refer to mages. After suffering a serious crisis of faith, she doubted her past life and future path. Fallen legend.
But the most important thing is what someone said casually to her.
"Actually, I'm the most pious. At least I never expect the gods to do anything for me. What I believe in is not even the true God itself. I just recognize the concept of the law itself and try to use the law to improve our world. "
Every night, these short words sounded repeatedly in her mind, beating her past life like a bell, and with the help of these materials and her "sister", she reflected on her past life, To sum up, finally, make up your mind.
"...The disappointment in the dark elf society where blood relatives kill each other made me abandon Rose and choose the way of salvation by the Holy Light. I hope that the Holy Light can save me and my clansmen and let us walk under the sun."
"...When I found out that the way of the Holy Light was just 'purification', and saw that the law allowed the various races in Sulfur Mountain City to live in harmony, I once again gave up the pursuit of the Holy Light from the bottom of my heart, longing for the new order of the law power to bring us to the sun."
"...And when my faith was shaken, I studied the teachings of the Moon Goddess again, even in order to seek the peace of my faith, and to return to the surface. Although I brought myself under the sun this time, my heart was even more at a loss. "
The ever-changing power of order flickered on the silver holy sword, and the shattering of the soul emblem also freed her from the restrictions of the past. The pure and simple heart allowed her to resonate with these powers of order.
Perhaps, in a sense, this "subordinate" who is always on the sidelines is the true disciple who has inherited Roland's exploration and philosophy of the world's mysteries.
Being able to become a future epic hero and commander of the dark elves proved his extraordinary aptitude, and after Roland lifted the veil covering the real world, it made him far surpass his "historical" achievements.
"Oh, my lord is not wrong. Every time I believe in a certain god, I have the utilitarian heart to realize my desires. It has nothing to do with piety, and I give my expectations and goals to others. It is a kind of escape. .”
In confusion, Diana inexplicably remembered what the man said in the past.
"...Begging others is worse than asking yourself. The gods can't even deal with their own troubles. Instead of worshiping gods and Buddhas, it is better to worship yourself. The current world is not good. It is difficult to change a little bit, but there are things. You If you don’t do it, there is definitely no hope. But if you do it, there is at least a possibility.”
That man said so, and he did so.
The underground world is the most chaotic place in the entire Ashe world, but he opened up the paradise-like sulfur mountain city there. In a barbaric society where the law of the jungle prevailed, he used the rules of the law to bring all races into a state of equality.
The dark elves have always been regarded as an inherently evil race, even though they have become paladins, they are still questioned, but that person did not hesitate to accept the desperate dark elves, and entrusted them with the important task of protecting the city and the citizens , this was the first time that the dark-skinned elves felt trust.
It is a wondrous place and an even more wondrous master, who develops engineering as a plaything and allows for a wondrous religious vision of many true gods in one place. Innovating the new law based on the equality of all beings, his behavior has always been arrogant, even contrary to tradition. This may seem crazy in the eyes of ordinary people, and perhaps many actions are simply incomprehensible, but in Diana's eyes, there is a clear thread - he is trying to make the world a better place, he is trying to change , he is not content with the status quo!
"If you think this world is not good enough? Why don't you change it? What's the use of counting on the gods. They're just a group of mud bodhisattvas who can't protect themselves, just a group of poor worms tied to the throne."
God is supreme. Mortals are just ants in the eyes of the true god? In the eyes of that person, the true god is no nobler than mortals, and as time goes by, he replaces words with actions.
Rose, who had been crushed on the head of the dark elves for thousands of years, fell down. Even the supreme God of Holy Light was exposed on that day. His hypocrisy was revealed. The God of God had doubts for a long time, I am afraid that there must be his own existence among the paladins who lost their holy family that day.
"I was given up by the Holy Light? No, I gave up the Holy Light, I..."
The golden brilliance on the soul emblem is gone, the beliefs of the past have been shattered, and the soul emblem that was still shining yesterday is already dilapidated.
At this moment, Diana thought of the doomsday truth that the man revealed to herself on the airship, the almost impossible desire to save the world.
"...The world is so difficult. Patience and begging are meaningless. Knowing that you can't do it, is it stupid? Is it noble? Is it possible? No..."
Her memory has returned to the past of a hundred years of exploration, and she once cursed in despair, hoping that the world where all life is suffering will end, but now looking back, she is too selfish.
It sounds like a happy ending, but isn't it too cruel for those newborns who have just come into the world and haven't enjoyed the joy? Isn't it hard work for the ecology that is still struggling? Is the man who sacrificed everything for the chance to change it too cruel?
Now that the determination has been made, in the next moment, the old soul seal has become fragments, but silver brilliance shines from it, and a new soul path has been formed, but the new soul seal is a fist holding a sword.
"...We just want to live and let mortals live with more dignity and safety. Is this wrong?"
The silvery brilliance flickered. After falling below the legend, Diana stepped directly into the holy steps at the moment when she re-buried the legend. When she understood her own path, all the accumulation in the past turned into real power.
The understanding of the gods and divine power, the divine light, the divine power of the moon, the power of the law, and the natural anti-magic power of the dark elves are all mixed together, but the most important thing is her own belief, which makes the muddy body The compound divine power produced an inexplicable change. When all the colors became muddy, the last thing left was as dark as night.
"We want to live and make the world a better place, even if it's an invincible god standing in our way. Awaken, my soul emblem... 'Fool against God!'."
Diana was smarter than outsiders knew. From what Roland revealed to her, she vaguely sensed that Roland had always regarded the true God as an imaginary enemy, and when she understood the truth of the eternal jihad, she even pointed the peak at the abode. , but are constantly triggering a new round of desperate two major gods.
Who doesn't know that it is stupid to make God an enemy, who doesn't know that the road to salvation is impossible, but since mortals also have the right to live, there are some things that have to be done, since smart people don't want to do it Folly, let us fools do it.
"The Fool? It really suits me."
Inexplicably thinking of the man who always called her a silly girl, Diana laughed at herself, but she became more determined. As long as she can achieve her goal, even if the world doesn't understand her, so what if she is laughed at as a fool... At least, the person who also chose the path of a fool and a madman will definitely understand his choice. This path may be difficult, but it is not without fellows.
And the fact is indeed the case. Not long after, the knights who also chose this thorny road also put on black armor and wore the medal of "Blade of Resistance". How many people know that this is the founder's The determination of the "big silly girl" at that moment, and the real name of the anti-paladin, the homonym of the anti-paladin-anti-god knight!
They are the knights of mortals, they oppose the interference of the superior existence in the world, they believe that the fate of mortals should be decided by mortals themselves, they believe that gods and demons should stay in their own territory, and they dare to swing their swords at anyone who crosses the border.
And at that moment, when the first anti-paladin in history inserted the holy sword into the waters in Oran's watery battlefield, I'm afraid even the true gods would be shocked.
"I hope that this world belongs to mortals."
The simple words fell, and nothing seemed to happen, but what spread was Diana's world of mind-the world of mortals.
The area continued to expand, but at the moment of sweeping, nothing seemed to happen, but at the next moment, the rain cloud on the zenith suddenly disappeared, and the entire water area suddenly disappeared.
In this "world of mortals", the privileges of demon angels, demon kings, and even gods who are not on the plane will disappear, and the signature abilities of anti-paladins are various anti-magic and anti-divine abilities. They are the guardians of the plane. , is the mortal enemy of the existence of alien planes.
If the will of the plane really exists, maybe this is the miracle he created to save himself. After all, only an epic knight who has gone through many tests, but also a dark elf who has the talent to resist magic, can survive countless evils. Under the mistake of yin and yang, he merged all of his own and created this unprecedented road.
As for the battlefield in front of us, after the removal of the divine power and forbidden curse ratio, there is no suspense in the entire battlefield. The human side, which already had the advantage of time and people, once again gained the advantage of location, the front of the Sea Clan completely collapsed and was shrouded in dark clouds. After a year and a half, Kagoshi saw the first ray of sunshine again. (to be continued)
