Section 42 Transformation 3

Amber gently floated down beside Lu Wu.

Her figure is slightly translucent. As a spirit body, it takes extra energy for her to materialize herself, which obviously shows that this work is not easy to do. It's also a shame that she has almost unlimited recovery ability, otherwise this job would require at least dozens of high-level warlocks to do.

In fact, the transformation of the appearance is good, for the warlock it is less mana consumption, and only requires a relatively simple job, which was the case with the Floating Fortress before. However, changing the physical properties requires quite a lot of explosive power. It's also quite a load for the current amber.

The blue-white light slowly faded away, and soon, there was no visible light source in the surroundings. Amber didn't seem to make any difference before, but Lu Wu had been with her long enough to feel the indescribable exhaustion that was released from the depths of his body.

And that's not just because of what you just did.

Lu Wu's "technical transformation" plan doesn't matter to amber, anyway, it can be constructed according to the drawings, and at most it is a matter of time. However, Amber's own actions did not go as smoothly as expected.

Amber didn't look at Lu Wu, but turned his attention to the drawings.

"Lu Wu, if this is a blast furnace, this obviously corresponds to this ...... on the drawing" Amber asked a question. Even though it was the middle of the night when there wasn't even a street lamp, it was clear that it didn't stop Amber. Who can tell what Amber is looking at? She doesn't have a retina in her body at all! Yet she can see every detail of the drawings in this environment, and it can only be said that it is some kind of magical effect. "The internal structure of this part also needs to be further remodeled?"

"That's how it should be. Lu Wu said. He is much worse than amber, and under normal circumstances, it is impossible for a human to see the drawings clearly in this light, even if the eyes are attached to zero distance. However, with the magic ring, he was able to improve his eyesight to an incredible level, which was barely enough. "But...... This structure ...... Why did you deliberately make it a star?"

He had to admit that the master's design was not as simple as he imagined. Although this thing is said to be the most suitable by the masters, and the drawings themselves are very simple and easy to understand, it is by no means an ordinary thing to really understand. At least understanding the scientific principles behind the drawings drawn by the master is really not something that a college student with the wrong major on Earth can do.

Thankfully, with Amber's help, he just needs to know what it is, not why.

"That's all for today. Lu Wu proposed. It can be seen that even with infinite mana replenishment, Amber's own energy is also consumed. Lu Wu could feel that Amber seemed to be using this as a channel to vent, temporarily diverting his attention so as not to think about another trouble.

Yes, Amber is in pretty big trouble - she can't find a way to collect divine powers for a while.

Originally, Lu Wu felt that this was not a difficult thing. Not to mention, there are many temples, Taoist temples, and Christian churches within W City. If you look a little more broad, go beyond the scope of W City, and consider the whole world, then the choice is huge.

Combined with the introduction of the master and Lu Wu's own speculation, although he dare not say 100%, at least 99% of the belief is not supported by a true god. The master believes that perhaps gods were born on earth due to various accidental factors. However, maybe it's because of the restrictions of the rules of the world, maybe it's the fight between the gods, maybe even some indescribable natural disasters or something, in short, in this era of technological prosperity, the gods are dead. And what's worse is that because of the development of science and technology, coupled with the disconnection of knowledge related to the path of the gods, there is no environment for the generation of new gods in this world. Even if someone is lucky and talented, he can only stop at the realm of demigods. Demigods are not separated from human bodies, and are still limited by the laws of nature, which means that as long as they are not sublimated to pseudo-gods, they are doomed to death.

In short, in Lu Wu's opinion, since the power of the ownerless faith is everywhere, it is not a complicated thing to collect some. The real difficulty lies in how to collect this formless, invisible, and intangible energy. However, since the master has taught Amber how to collect it (it seems that this can be achieved simply by creating a god seat), then it is not too difficult, is it?

But in fact, it is far from as simple as thought.

For, according to the latest knowledge, the power of faith is a power that naturally has a purpose. It's not a disorderly existence, and anyone can get a piece of the power (like heat).

For example, the power of faith generated by believing in the Buddha can only be harvested by the Buddha, and the Jade Emperor cannot obtain it. It is a fixed relationship between man and God, determined by the rules of the existence of the world itself. Even if the Buddha hung up for some reason (and the believers still existed), the Jade Emperor would not be able to intercept it.

Between the two gods, if there is a gift of power, it is also after processing the ethereal power of faith into a divine power that can be seen and touched. It's like Kecha Goat hid the divine energy in his secret warehouse before, but it was stolen by the master with Lu Wu.

That's usually the case.

Examples similar to those of the master and the kecha goyat are the rare exceptions. Because Kecha Goyat did not directly absorb the power of faith, but by creating a divine seat, he collected faith in the form of two hands. So after he hung up, with such a medium as the divine seat, the master could replace him. In fact, further, the main thing is that the two of them are directly related by blood (is that called blood?), and the difference between them is far less than that of ordinary gods. So this is a special case that cannot be repeated.

First Lawyers, like Amber, possess indescribably magical and powerful magical powers, and can even influence and manipulate time and space, but they are powerless against such fixed rules. It is completely impossible to rely on the existing belief system to effortlessly collect divine energy.

Of course, maybe Amber can use her power to set up another god (as a spirit body anyway, she can modify her physical appearance at will), and use some of the existing concepts of religious worship, such as impersonating XX Bodhisattva, or XX angel or something. However, it is not so simple to collect divine energy, and the most important point is that although a specific creature can collect this energy, at the same time, it is also the process of absorbing divine energy and evolving its own way of existence in a higher direction (if this can also be called evolution).

To put it bluntly, the end of the power of faith cannot be attributed to one person (even amber). Otherwise, you won't be able to collect it at all, because the power of faith has been absorbed by this specific person and has become the food for his sublimation and evolution. For Amber, who doesn't want to become a god, but just wants to collect this energy, there is no point in doing so.

In this regard, there seems to be only one way to do it, and that is to create an illusory idol. Put yourself in the role of prophet, leader, etc., so that you can avoid this problem.

In this day and age, there seems to be nothing wrong with making a religion. After all, glorious examples of the "XX cult" can be heard everywhere in modern times. With Amber's supernatural abilities, it doesn't seem difficult to fool a religion.

However, just like the blueprints provided by the masters, there is a difference between theory and reality. What does it take to create a religion – not to mention what the government is allowed or not (modern China is quite wary of new religions)? If you really understand it, you will find that the real key is not supernatural abilities, but an organizer who can talk and blow and fool people. Supernatural abilities are only useful if there is such an organizer. In fact, with such an organizer, even without supernatural abilities, a religion can still be formed. Many cults rely on this.

To put it bluntly, you need a magic stick.

The question is...... Don't look at the god stick or something, it's a derogatory term in contemporary times, but there are really not many people with the talent of the god stick. The ancient closed world may be able to lower the standard, and even use some magic methods, but in the modern world, where the wisdom of the people has been opened, it is really not easy to be a god. Moreover, according to the master's point of view, it can be speculated that this talent is the basic talent of the path to the gods.

Someone like Lu Wu, even if he wants to become a god stick, he probably won't be able to succeed. Not to mention the high stakes. In this era, if supernatural abilities are exposed, it is estimated that the people who come to the door are not necessarily believers, and there is also national security......

Although Amber has supernatural abilities, it is not impossible if she really wants to develop in this direction regardless of everything, but it is definitely not something that can be achieved overnight. If you want to have a certain impact, it's not just to kidnap kittens and puppies or something, it's quite difficult. It doesn't take a little bit of time.

The problem is, this is just the first step in the experiment—to prove that collecting the power of faith is not theoretically feasible. There are many more steps to follow.

The first step was stuck, and there was no solution for a while. Obviously, if you can't even do this step, then everything is in the air, and there is no way to talk about it. Amber is in a difficult situation for the time being, unable to find a suitable way to carry out her own experimental project. Perhaps it is because of this that she shows such exhaustion.

"Amber ......" Lu Wu just wanted to speak and comfort Amber, but the mobile phone on his body suddenly rang.
