What are the gods?

As a modern person, Lan Li originally thought that the so-called gods might be some powerful beings with many abilities beyond ordinary cognition.

They may rely on mortal beliefs to exist and spread their will in the world as they please, or they may be independent and powerful individuals, living in a world invisible to ordinary people.

He now thinks that half of his perception is correct, that is, gods exist by faith, or that there are gods in this world who live by faith.

But these gods are not so high.

Carefully considering the birth of the gods, the process must be complicated, but on the whole, Lan Li thinks it is very clear - belief is there, and if you don't believe, you don't, and under the long-term worship, the so-called gods are born by gathering many human wills.

The other gods Lan Li didn't understand, but at this time, the one on his wrist, or the drowning god of the Iron Islands, he knew exactly what this thing was.

It is a drowning god, but it is also a naga, a primitive totemic belief.

That's right, Naga the sea dragon, the legendary world's first sea dragon, is the most powerful creature born of the sea, feeding on sea monsters and sea beasts, and can swallow entire islands when angry.

In the story of the Iron Isles, Naga appears as a villain, the first king of the islands, the Grey Sea King, who slaughtered it on Old Wake Island with his own hands, and made beams and pillars from its ribs, a throne from its mouth, and a towering pale crown from its teeth.

Eventually, the Grey Sea King warmed his new hall with Naga's fire, and ruled the archipelago for millennia before finally stepping into the sea.

This story has been talked about by countless iron breeders, and it has also been considered nonsense by many scholars, but in reality it is not a story, but a real thing.

It is impossible to determine the exact year and month of the existence of the Blue Rite, but when communicating on the top of the hill, he "witnessed" the general process of the terrifying sea dragon Naga from being worshiped to being killed later.

Human beings were afraid of it, so they bowed down to it, sacrificed to it, and worshiped more, and the so-called drowning god was born.

It's a pity that no one understands the iron seeds, their belief in drowning gods that has been passed down for thousands of years has long been a "degenerate" and godless pseudo-god school, or rather, the drowning gods they chant day and night have long been killed by their first king, and the divinity brewed by the drowning gods gathered many human beliefs, or the Naga fire in the story, has also been extinguished.

So both physically and spiritually, the drowning god no longer exists.

But this disappearance is not complete, because until this belief is abandoned by humans, the drowning god will not disappear completely.

It's just that this kind of non-disappearance is actually no different from the real disappearance. Having lost his life and his spirituality, He has become a mindless being made up of many wills of faith.

What can this being do?

Thousands of years of evidence in the Iron Islands have proven that He could do nothing because He had become a stagnant mass.

It wasn't until Lan Li's appearance that there was a little ripple in this stagnant water.

Lan Li didn't understand why this stagnant water reacted to him, he guessed that it might be because of the chaotic mark on his left wrist, or maybe his psychic heart was sensed by this stagnant water, so he had a feedback, and then took him through a hazy "memory flashback" again.

At the same time, he could not understand why the drowning god was "resurrected" on his wrist.

That's right, resurrection.

It's not a resurrection in the true sense, but at this moment, in the blue mark on Lan Li's wrist, a wisp of Naga fire has been born, or a wisp of drowning divinity, which can burn out with a slight touch.

What can it do?

Lan Li couldn't be sure, at least, he didn't think that this thing would continue to breed ancient path seeds like the axe mark, because after a few days of observation, he found that this thing was slowly growing instead of splitting into new flames.

At the same time, he can also "dig out" this flame like the seed of the ancient path, but he can still put it back after digging it out.

So Lan Li guessed that he seemed to ...... Maybe...... Probably with this stuff...... God-making?

What's the use of that?

Or what is the use of creating gods?

He wasn't sure, he had vaguely seen a lot of terrifying scenes that made the sea roar during his communication with Naga, but he wasn't sure if it was the power of the sea dragon itself or the power of the drowning god.

Because of such a wisp of fire, Lan Li didn't dare to try it casually, and at the same time, he wasn't ready to use this thing on himself, or he tried, but the fire couldn't be integrated into his body at all.

Maybe this thing is still picky?

Everything is unknown, Lan Li only knows that with the birth of this spark, his race level has been "incidentally" raised by one level, and there is not much information about the characteristics of the extra Naga fire, but referring to the story and legend, it is very likely that he can also live for hundreds or thousands of years......

Not to mention the elevation of the racial level, he suddenly changed from a mortal with a limited lifespan to an obviously inhuman existence, and this kind of good thing is not possible for anyone in the world to maintain a normal mind - the human desire for immortality comes from the deep desire of life, and this desire cannot be avoided even by many wise monarchs.

Now that he has been "easily" obtained, it is obviously a great thing.

However, Lan Li is still a little kid now, and he can't feel the existence of aging, and he doesn't feel too surprised about it, or for now, he pays more attention to the trouble that comes with this fire being ignited......

Thinking about this, the boy sitting at the head of the bed frowned.

The birth of a god, or rather, the revival of a god, obviously cannot be just the kind of light that shines on the surface, and at the same time, this new fire is obviously a great treasure.

It would have been fine if no one had known all this, but if the movement was so great that hundreds of pairs of eyes saw the vastness of the scene as if a god had come into the world, all this would be ......

Westeros is certainly a normal medieval world, but who knows what's hidden in it?

Is there probably only one who "knows"?

"I can't wait any longer as originally planned, lest I be approached by some ghostly monster."

He thought to himself.

Leaving Old Wake Island or the Iron Islands is not a difficult task for Lan Li at the moment, because many Drowning people have begun to obey him unconditionally, but if you communicate this matter directly with Drowning people......

Lan Li was a little hesitant about this, but that afternoon, his mentality basically disappeared.

Because the arrival of a visitor sent a better opportunity to the door-

The visitor was Baron. Greyjoy, King of the Iron Islands.
