Chapter 125: Birthday
Gu Yun recalled many things.
For example, the original believers called the garden of the Kiriyama Hermit Society the Birthplace, believing that the height of the ancient tree leads directly to the heavens, and that it is also a bridge for God's blessings and omens, and that each archbishop has a mission to communicate with God.
Amphikto was the first believer to recognize the existence of God and spread the gospel.
God is real in this world.
Unlike the omniscient and all-powerful people believed in by some sects on the earth, the gods of their world are a complex and huge race, and Gu Yun speculated that what this towering ancient tree is connected to is actually the abode of the god race.
Unfortunately, he had no way of confirming this, because when he came to the city, it had been destroyed by war for thousands of years, and the ancient trees had been destroyed and burned.
Walking through the corridors of the church, everything he saw seemed to be a double shadow of the present and the past, and he saw the shadow of the ruins behind the resplendent decoration.
"Gu Yun ......"
Before leaving the birthday, An Ling's curiosity was already so strong that it couldn't be more intense.
In fact, she had faintly noticed something unusual about Gu Yun from a long time ago, in addition to the extremely powerful combat power, the "village" he mentioned from time to time also revealed a suspicious aura everywhere.
When Gu Yun directly said the archbishop's name, all the suspicions were connected.
She felt as if she was now standing in front of a door that hid a myriad of secrets, and behind the door, it was likely that there was a different world beyond all her knowledge, so much so that she couldn't help but wonder if the witchers and clerics who were walking by at this moment, the stairs they had stepped underfoot, were they virtual games, or the real history of some world?
"I think we should investigate the intel first!"
When the words came to his lips, he temporarily changed his words.
An Ling believes that with Gu Yun's character, as long as she asks questions, the other party will definitely tell her the truth.
It was only at the moment of opening her mouth that she suddenly rang out to have a conversation with Kate King.
Ignorance is happiness.
Now she is not ready for the truth.
It will take a lot of time to learn about the world as a player, but it will give her plenty of time to build her mind.
"Let's go to the library first."
Gu Yun took the two of them back and forth in the church with ease, and after seeing Amphikto, he immediately left the shapeshifter and the plan behind.
He has many questions that need to be determined, and the answers to these questions may be found in the believer's library.
The library of the Kirky Mountains Hermit Society contains countless important documents in the early days, from the founding of the Kingdom of Dom, the founding of the Hermit Society, to some records of spells, monsters, and gods.
In fact, when the war broke out, the main enemy they encountered was not the Protoss themselves, their followers were numerous, and they were willing to go to the trouble to become cannon fodder for every decision of the Protoss.
There were already quite a few people gathered in the library, and the witchers and clergy were mixed.
The clergy mainly read theological books, while the witchers mainly used various monster atlases, which shows that after realizing that there are monsters in the city, the witchers also took action.
Gu Yun rummaged through the bookshelves for a while, and finally found a familiar classic.
"Demon Atlas".
This book was very popular in the later wars, and almost every believer had a copy, but the content on it was very different from the "Demon Atlas" he had seen.
For example, on the first page, there is a portrait of the second village chief, whom Gu Yun had seen in the ancestral hall of the village, and his existence had a profound impact on everyone who came after.
The elder said that the second village chief was the greatest hero in the history of the village, and the spiritual power and the four trials were created by him, and that era was also the heyday of the village, and in this "Demon Atlas", the believers still call them monsters.
These concepts were conveyed to the believers by the Protoss through the ancient trees, and every believer firmly believed in them.
However, Gu Yun wanted to make sure that it was not the various grievances between the Protoss and them, but a specific point in time.
The second village chief has one thing in common with Archbishop Amphikto - they are both characters from more than a thousand years ago, that is, the game somehow transports them to a point in time more than a thousand years ago?
Along the way, it is not difficult to see that the believers are far from reaching the same high level of unity as they were later, and the hermit society of the Foggy Mountains has not yet taken a dominant position.
"Gu Yun, look at this."
An Ling patted Gu Yun on the shoulder, and when the latter flipped through the "Module Atlas", she also took an ancient book about demon hunters.
It was much richer than the science reading she had read in the Foundation library last time, and she realized that in this world, at least, the witcher wasn't a rumor that would spread rumors if she couldn't beat them, or a weak chicken who would die if the holy water and silver weapons didn't work.
The basic spells they had learned earlier did not correspond to the Spellor, but to a branch of the Witcher system called the School of Learning.
There are many different schools of learning, some of which are demon hunters who are committed to eliminating the hatred of evil spirits and solving the problem at their roots, while others are dedicated to researching various tools that can directly kill evil spirits.
The latter also mentions the effects of holy water, pure salt, and silver weapons on spirits.
It's just that in this genre, these three are only the most basic exorcisms, and the true learned witchers have created a series of more powerful and effective spells, the complexity of which is very similar to the spells recorded in the Apprentice's Handbook.
The opposite of the school of learning, is the sword school that advocates the use of force to solve problems, the people of the sword school have practiced swordsmanship since childhood, and the pace of some people's personal strength is comparable to that of the knight chief of the kingdom, and they usually do not learn spells for such people, and they assist when they use tools.
Since this book is mainly about the school of learning, there is not much mention about the school of swords.
An Ling thinks that if you look at the two from the perspective of a game, it will be very easy to understand.
The sword school is a physics profession, and the scholarly school is a law profession.
And it's a direct legal system in the true sense, not the kind that can only pour water on evil spirits or monsters.
So far, this game has no class limitations, and each player is a "free man", which means that they can join either the sword school or the school of knowledge according to their preference.
Not only that, but they may even be able to join the Cavaliers, or different professions in various industries in this society.
The complexity and freedom of the game is just like the real world.
If there is even a slight possibility that this world is real......
"Perhaps, we can find a way to identify the shape-changing monsters in this book."
