Chapter 1283: God
The outcome of a battle is never determined by numbers, but by the efficiency of killing.
In this regard, Luke, who has a powerful magical power, undoubtedly occupies an absolute advantage.
From the beginning to the end, in less than five minutes, he had killed hundreds of fighters who were taller than himself, stronger than himself, and even more proficient in cold weapon killing than himself.
But the interesting thing is that from the eyes of these people before they died, he did not find any emotions such as fear, uneasiness, withdrawal, etc., and each pair of eyes was so calm, as if he had returned to his mother's arms, rather than being cut off by the scorching heat rays.
No doubt!
This is not at all a problem that can be explained with bravery!
It's faith!
Unwavering, even death cannot change the faith in the slightest!
Realizing this, Luke slowly raised his head, stared into the eyes of the man in black leather armor, and asked with interest, "Can you tell me about the god you serve?" I wonder what kind of promise he gave you, so many people are willing to give their lives for him. ”
"Oh, you know that God exists?" said the man, grinning with joy.
It was as if in his eyes, those dead companions had simply returned to the arms of the gods, so there was no need to be sad and depressed, because sooner or later he would also usher in that day.
After all, too long has passed since the era of theocracy, and most of the ordinary people in this world have forgotten the gods they once worshipped, coupled with the conscious suppression of the Darents, the gods who survived can only spread their faith in a very small range, ensuring that they will not perish because of losing their faith.
"I come from a tribe with a complete lineage, the existence of the gods of the way of nature. It's just that I didn't expect that God, who should be high, would give up his dignity and live like a wandering beggar. Is such a god really worthy of all your efforts to worship and believe?" Luke's tone revealed undisguised irony.
In his inherent impression, the most fundamental reason why God can attract mortals to offer their faith and spiritual world is that they are powerful, that they are omnipotent, that they are far beyond mortals.
If all of this is lost, can God still be called God?
The obvious answer is no!
Some mortals, who are greedy and hungry for power and eternal life, will even see such gods as a target for hunting.
Interestingly, the gods of this world have maintained this state for quite some time, but their followers have remained religious, never thinking of abandoning or betraying.
"Shut up! What do you know! The great gods have paid more than you can imagine to protect the world from the greedy and evil invaders. ”
Hearing that someone had insulted his god, the man in the black leather armor suddenly became excited.
If eyes could kill, Luke would have been dismantled by his knife-like gaze.
"Protect this world? Do you mean a world that is about to be exhausted and is almost in the end of the world? I'm sorry, but if this is the world they protect, I can only say that they are a bunch of complete losers, who don't deserve faith at all, and should have perished with the old era. What you are serving is not so much God as the spirits of the old age, and the order they wish to restore may always be realized. ”
With a slightly mocking tone, Luke approached the main entrance of the fortress step by step.
At the moment when he was about to cross the threshold, the man in black leather armor suddenly released a terrifying sense of oppression, and a golden light was released from his originally gray pupils.
"Mortals, were you just making a big deal of despise the existence of the gods?" a majestic voice asked.
"You're the god they serve, a coward who hides even your true face?" Luke paused, looking him straight into the other's eyes.
"Coward, is that what you think of me? No, young man, I'm just cautious. What's more, those invaders who called themselves Durantis never really left. Tell me, what exactly are you looking for in this place?"
The unknown god did not seem to be irritated by the insulting words, and touched his chin with a curious expression.
After all, no matter how powerful the verbal insult is, it is not as good as being caught like a rat by the Darrants, constantly compressing the living space and eradicating his church and faith from the root.
"I came to find my past and my future. Luke didn't try to hide anything, and made his intentions clear.
"Past and future?" the unknown god froze for a moment, and soon couldn't help but smile playfully. "Ahh ”
Luke was keenly aware of the other party's subtext, and frowned tentatively, "So, I wasn't born here?"
"No! Of course not! All life born on this planet will receive a mark, a soul mark that only the gods can see. I'm curious, who told you to come here in search of the past and the future?"
As he said this, the god raised his right hand, as if to touch the boy's forehead.
But before he could touch it, Luke unleashed a wall of qi and spread it out, scolding him with a look of disgust, "Get out of here! ”
"Darrant?!, where is he?" the unknown god's tone suddenly became stern.
But Luke shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly: "Who knows." He spoke to me through a bionic alchemy golem, and if you want to find their hideout, first look for a raider called Shadow of Death. As far as I know, the Darrants have done a lot of things with that bionic golem. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you, he also asked me to kill all the self-proclaimed god-worshippers in this fortress. ”
God sneered and pouted, "Hmph! Use you to test my truth? boring little trick! If you don't mind, can you tell me what you're going to do?"
"What I do next depends on your attitude. If you let your followers out of the fortress, then I won't do anything. But if you continue to stand in my way, I will destroy you and your followers at all costs. It's always easier to kill and destroy than to create and build, isn't it?" Luke bluntly gave two options.
For the Darents, he has always maintained a high vigilance in his heart, so that he will not do 100% according to the other party's requirements.
