Chapter 34: The Messenger of the Old Gods (Ask for Recommendations)
Luo Zixuan always believes that the best way to treat the new generation of gods should be to tell them how difficult it is and how dangerous it is to survive in this universe.
It is not destined to be covered up in the long run.
At the end of the day, it won't make much sense. It's just going to cause backlash.
That would create a terrible panic and despair.
And these emotions will make the ancient gods who feed on this more powerful.
As the Old Gods become stronger, they will bring even greater despair and fear.
Achieve a perfect loop.
That's why all four tech trees have developed ways to keep soldiers from falling into fear.
Although it was said that it was useful against the Old Gods, in the end, these techniques were generally abandoned.
The reason for this is that soldiers who are truly biologically unaware of fear can easily die on the battlefield.
Because they don't dodge attacks, it's hard to see through traps.
Even if there are many traps that seem to be mentally retarded, they are easy to fall into them inexplicably.
Even silicon-based creatures need fear, and only low-level AI robots that don't have any real self-personality don't need this kind of thing at all.
The desire to survive is necessary for any living being, including gods.
Eliminating the fear will directly eliminate it, causing the individual to behave irrationally.
That's why the refinement of the nightmare factor is so important to scientific and technological civilization.
The equipment and medicines it makes only resist mental pollution, and do not completely eliminate fear, nor do they cause a lack of desire to survive.
Even mechanical civilizations still need the Nightmare Factor to make equipment and shields against spiritual pollution, and so on.
Because after the ancient gods are strong to a certain extent, they also have a relatively considerable spiritual pollution effect on mechanical life.
It can even be translated into the logic of the virus attacking the entire organism.
In severe cases, it can result in data loss, resulting in a true death rarely seen by a mechanical lifeform that has completed the ascension.
The true death of carbon-based life usually refers to brain death.
In the case of mechanical lifeforms, it is data loss.
Even if a person is resurrected from backup, it is already another mechanical life, and the memory cannot be connected.
As the second-generation successor of the old gods, Luo Zixuan inherited all the memories of his predecessor and saw all the materials preserved by the Throne of the Mechanical God.
He still has sensibility, but it can only be applied to his own people.
Luo Zixuan clearly recognized such a thing.
That is, God doesn't have to be as lonely as He is.
But it must be decisive enough to be responsible, and to make judgments immediately at a moment that will make it difficult for mortals to make a decision.
No matter what the consequences are, we must be able to bear them without wavering.
As a god, you will hesitate and entangle, what qualifications do you have to be believed and relied on by people?
You can show kindness to your own believers.
And against the enemy, it must be cold-blooded and ruthless enough.
This is not a bad thing.
It's like a cooling unit that never gets too hot is the best choice.
If you can't suppress your feelings of sympathy and pain in your heart and make decisions that are in the best interest of your own people, then you are not worthy of being a god.
Luo Zixuan will prove his idea.
He will kill all the gods who have a playful mentality.
Because they don't deserve to sit in this position.
After all, they are just mortals with so-called divine powers.
Is such a half-person also worthy of being called a god of machines, a false god?
Just because they didn't ignite their stupid divine fire?
The old universe didn't even have such a thing as lighting a divine fire to obtain divine power.
It's a toy made by the Supreme God himself.
…… It's like the class cards he gave to his students with the power of creativity.
Students don't even think about how this thing came about. Maybe in their eyes, that's the game.
In fact, Luo Zixuan knows it very well.
Take, for example, the Goblin summon card that the god of thunder and lightning got.
Once he used this card, he could use it to add 100 Goblins to God's Land.
There's nothing wrong with this card in the game, but it's not a game at all.
The real message behind it is terrifying.
That is, whether the Supreme God is able to create more intelligent beings that last forever or encompass a large number of races—it remains to be seen if there is a limit to this ability.
Moreover, he can also use substances such as cards as a carrier to store them, and when needed, through the connection between the gods and the gods, he can directly teleport these creatures to the gods, and make them automatically believe in your religion as soon as they appear.
Besides, I'm afraid not all of these are magical creations.
Perhaps they didn't influence the mind with magic, causing it to automatically generate specific beliefs.
…… Rather, it was brainwashed with psionic energy.
Luo Zixuan had previously assumed that the supreme god might be an old god who cultivated both magic and psionic energy, but was inclined to magic, and luckily survived the dimensionality reduction attack of the Outer God Legion.
After that, he escaped into the psionic signal, and together with the spirits, somehow escaped annihilation, hibernate until the birth of the new universe, and directly destroyed or imprisoned the spirits after recovery, and began to block the technology tree other than magic in the new universe.
However, his own ability to use psionic energy has not disappeared.
And one of the most prominent advantages of psionic energy is that it is good at mind control.
It's okay to wash out the underlying thinking logic, which means that you can make a person think that he is a tree, and then just bury himself half-buried in the ground, even if he dies of thirst and starvation, he will not move.
In this case, it is not difficult to directly get the created beings to believe in a particular deity.
As long as you close your eyes, there will be no disaster.
The Supreme God is afraid that he will want to cover up the existence of the ancient gods.
However, paper can't contain fire.
Sooner or later, it will be revealed.
Old gods are everywhere. It's not something that the Supreme God can solve with a bunch of trustworthy dogs.
At this time, Luo Zixuan scanned a large number of other planes and planets, and carefully observed that most of this area was Ant-Man's divine domain.
Since the lord of the dunes that the Ant-Man believes in is a scorpion, the messenger of the ancient gods is also disguised as a scorpion.
Although it is much larger than the local sand scorpion, it is still far from the level of a "giant scorpion".
He opened his mouth and announced the oracle of the Lord of Dune in the language of the local Ant-Man, not the universal lingua franca prescribed by the Most High God.
Therefore, this immediately attracted the attention of the ant-people, and a large number of ant-people were gathered soon.
They didn't even have much doubt, and the only remaining vigilance and hostility was dissipated by the other party's use of their own language.
Use the language of the higher intelligent races to be touched - this hand is beautiful.
The appearance of the Messengers of the Old Gods was originally disguised as the race of the Lord of Dune, and now they speak the same words as them, which naturally makes people feel friendly and gives Ant-Man the illusion that there is no mistake, the Lord is moved by our prayers, so he sent the Messenger to preach the gospel!
