Chapter Forty-Six: The Priesthood, Faith, and the Creation of the Underworld Epilogue

Just when Kint began to fall into self-doubt and confusion and couldn't extricate himself, Hephaestus spit out a mouthful of old blood when he reappeared, and his body trembled uncontrollably, and he even became stiff and stiff. The black robe was half dyed white, and the wrinkles on his face were nearly doubled, showing his old age, and he no longer had the same prime of life as before.

"My godhead is still too small to handle such a large number of expectations. Ahem..."After Hephaestus reluctantly landed on a planet, he retracted the hammer that had been suspended in his hand. In fact, if you think about it carefully, you can see that Hephaestus did not hold a hammer and let it levitate, which is strange.

"My ministry is forging, and the prayers of believers to me are also tools for the better. Ahem... I can't control the huge amount of power anymore, and now I'm using it beyond my authority, cough cough... What a well-deserved punishment. "Hephaestus's problem is like that of a crappy stockbroker who takes billions of dollars from his clients to invest in the environmental industry, and it is normal for him to suffer from it.

"Gu Bai! You brought me here, and it made me doubt myself several times, and I almost destroyed myself. Now there is still this kind of enemy who is stronger than Kronos. Ahemβ€”β€”! If I die, I won't let you go! ”

Hephaestus had always considered himself a contented god. As long as there are raw materials and a hammer, he can happily knock for decades without stopping. But unfortunately, if he is a simple blacksmith, who is rare to break a hoe? But he is a master weaponsmith who can create a treasure like the Spear of Victory, a mobile arsenal. After the raw materials are put in, there is a continuous energy source for the production of weapons.

So his position has always been awkward. Either you are locked up and beaten with your weapons, or you are locked up and beaten with your head banged. Don't think about what you can't get yourself, that's why Zeus imprisoned him in the first place. Because if he is full of divine power and stands on the side of Hades, then after a hundred years, the army of hell will have excellent weapons and strong armor.

The throne of the god-king on Mount Olympus. It's going to be unsettling.

The road that was bumpy enough would theoretically end after "Clash of the Gods", and it would be the end of life. But the chaos of the reincarnation is to disrupt the plot of "Fury of the Gods" entirely. Let Kronos, who only appeared in the second part, be released first, and let him be a "god of fire".

He was trembling and operating, but he was suddenly asked a question by Gu Bai. was in a state of confusion, and suddenly got on Gu Bai's thief ship. It didn't take many good days to usher in the monster Kint again. The fate is too bumpy.

Now he is burdened with too many expectations, more and better tools, and protecting his followers from harm, which is everything to him. He loves humanity. Those who have truth, goodness and beauty. He believes that what God is superior to others means that what people can't. Be able to give a helping hand, otherwise what good is God? He did the same. It's heavy, but it's fulfilling.

He could not tolerate fighting with the amount of strength that his followers had given him what he was supposed to forge. He felt that this was a betrayal of the trust of the believers, and it was a very wrong thing.

Especially when Gu Bai didn't say anything to him.

"This time it's not a few hundred years, so I don't have to think about it to recover. Oh~ Damn. After getting used to that blackness, I'm really not used to this look now. Oh~ It's a pity that the robe made by Mi Qi'er is really a pity. ”

Rested for a while. Hephaestus finally returned to normal and flew towards Earth while talking to himself. Although there are two Earths now, what about him.

After returning to Earth, come to the temple. Hephaestus saw Gu Bai sitting cross-legged on the ground. After flying for so long, Hephaestus was no longer angry, and the half-covered black and white little old man was not annoyed when he looked at Gu Bai with his eyes closed, and walked directly to his god seat.

Gu Bai who was sitting cross-legged on the ground at this moment. My mind was thinking about the previous battle. From the beginning of slashing and killing the reincarnation with a strong bow, until the end of the day, he killed Altais with a mirror flower and a moon. Bit by bit, it's repeating itself. More importantly, the process of the soul being cleansed.

When the battle begins. In my heart, I am full of pride, and I want to prove my heart by killing a strong enemy. Prove your heart with strong enemies, and consume them to replenish your body. After killing one person in an instant, there was even more contempt in my heart. The person who became a world-destroying powerhouse before himself is no more. Let them be the stepping stone in their own strength.

With this heart, no one can talk about contempt for them, but the perspective of overlooking the strong, coupled with Akasha's secret demonic thoughts, coupled with the fierce demonic aura of Split Xi and the Demon Ape, even inspired the violence in the depths of his humanity. Relying on his own strength, he killed the two-headed giant lion who was facing him head-on in a chaotic fist and killing way. The ferocity and arrogance of the demon completely bred in my heart at that time, making my heart full of distractions and impermanence, and I couldn't fight calmly at all.

The demonic thought came to fruition, and the two breaths took the opportunity of the demonic thought in their hearts to turn into a new primordial spiritual wisdom and break out of the body. But because the root comes from Gu Bai, if you want to be free, you must cut off the link between yourself and Gu Bai. For example, the branches in the sky tree give birth to the idea of "I", but in order to truly become a tree, it is still possible to cut off the link between yourself and the tree.

In this way, the two-headed demon spirit rushed out with Gu Bai's body and body to the soul, so that Gu Bai's mind had to wander between the two, and he couldn't concentrate.

With his own demonic thoughts and the clones of the two-headed demon spirits, hundreds of millions of chaotic distracting thoughts occupied Gu Bai's mind. But it is also like a boulder, stirring up the debris precipitated under the heart pool. They were all stirred up, and while it was possible to make a puddle of water dirty, it was the best time to fish them out.

In this case, Gu Bai's battle immediately fell into a disadvantage. But fortunately, the full support of despair and the butler's two treasures supported the scene like two iron pillars. made Gu Bai jump out of the first fierce attack.

When the sword slashed the red spirit, although the demonic thoughts in Gu Bai's heart had weakened a little, his mind was chaotic. When he wanted to chase and kill, the lethality of that dagger made his soul take advantage of Akasha's weakness and enter the demonization.

The body is wounded and the soul is occupied, which is theoretically sinister to the extreme. But the mind no longer needs to run on both sides, it can concentrate, and the fierceness of the battle and the gradual arrival of death are to expel the distracting thoughts in the heart.

The fatal blow of the back-up fighter and gunner, which made Gu Bai completely realize what he wanted. All distractions have been cleared. Keep only one thought in mind.

Although the oil is exhausted, it is also the purest and brightest. I thought it was going to die immediately after hearing about it. There is a definite number of drinks and pecks, jade and despair, soul and body, in the absolute balance particle of the housekeeper, after balancing the two, the consciousness is placed in the middle, so that the two begin to be reconciled completely, and embark on the road of unity. Although it is not the legendary Yin and Yang Harmony and return to Tai Chi, the mind, spirit and body are one. It also allowed Gu Bai to find a new "yin and yang" between the complexity of devouring and his own simplicity.

Compared to the previous him, it is a higher level.

Before Hephaestus sat on the throne and turned into stone, Gu Bai, who was sitting on the chair, got up. He has thought about it a hundred times, but he still can't fully understand it, so he can only ponder it slowly in the future. But just now, he saw a scene that seemed to be able to make his strength soar soon.

He asked Hephaestus, "Hephaestus, why do I have a godhead, but I don't have your divine power?" ”

The latter was stunned. didn't come to his senses, what Gu Bai was saying.

"It's the hammer you used when you fought with Kint just now, and it's the power of faith in it. I have a godhead for something, but I don't have your divine power. ”

Listening to Gu Bai's words, Hephaestus was stunned for a while. Immediately after that, an old face turned red, and he scolded angrily: "You bastard! So you were there just now! Why don't you come and help me! If it weren't for his mental death, I wouldn't be here! ”

Gu Bai pointed at himself with a smile and said, "Me? How can I help you now? One of his swords I was dead. "He's now about one percent of his strength back. Under Kint it was also a matter of a sword.

"Then you can at least arrange someone to help me! What about Moffett! What about his fifteen men! ”

Gu Bai replied: "I thought about it." But before I could give the order, you took the hammer and flew away. … That's not the point, the point is what I just asked. I also have a godhead for something. But I don't have your strength, huh? ”

Hephaestus said angrily: "Because there is no one to pray for the dead!" ”

"What?"

"When a person dies, the soul will go to the place of reincarnation and continue the journey of life. In Greece, in my world, when a person dies, his hair is cut off by Tanatos, and his soul goes to the underworld. As the master of the underworld, Hades' family prays for the dead, whether they want it or not.

In this worldly realm, after a person dies, the soul can only dissipate because there is nowhere to go. Even if his family prayed for him, because God who did not respond, he would only get nothing but thoughts.

Although you have the godhead of Hades, you have no underworld for the dead, you have never shown your divine powers, and you have not sent messengers to publicize. There is no reason to pray, there is no one to pray, no one knows how to pray. It's normal for you to not get the amount of power. ”

Gu Bai was silent, communicating with Hei.

"But can I force them to pray to me, is that right?"

"Founded. But I don't recommend it. In the end, it will only be self-inflicted. ”

"Oh? How so? ”

Hephaestus tirelessly said, "For what gods should do their jobs? Do you want to pray to different gods for those who don't need it? For only the thoughts of sincere prayer will be pure, clear, and useful to me and long-lasting. People who love war pray to the god of war, and the two are always in mind, the prayer is willing to give faith, and the god is willing to give back, so that it can be established.

If you control their minds and pray, you will only get ignorant thoughts. They don't know why they pray, they just pray because they need to pray, and you will only reap impurities. Although it also has a huge amount of power, it can also erode your mind. They don't know what they want, so what can you give them? Greed is not bad, but stupidity is not good. You should think it through. ”

He crackled and said a lot, but Gu Bai only focused on the front part.

"Meaning, if I build an underworld, then the dead will pray to me?"

"Theoretically, yes. But the vast underworld always needs to be managed. Do you have that many of them? ”

Gu Baicai didn't care so much, he asked Hephaestus directly: "Can you create the underworld?" ”

"Please don't insult me, who do you think created the underworld in the first place? Hades? At that time, he knew that Lu Dao and Zeus were fighting for power. ”

"That's good, let's help me build it. Just put it in the earth. "Hephaestus's strength can easily defeat Kint with the power of faith, so when he masters it, won't his strength be able to reach a higher level?

Looking at Gu Bai's excited expression, Hephaestus really didn't want to hit him. But if you really want to build the underworld

"Wow. These are the materials I need, and when I have them, I will need them for 200 years. Gu Bai looked at the list, and his mouth was about to fall. He didn't even know what 90 percent of the stuff in it was. There are even several special elements of note, which are written in a mysterious and mysterious way, and I don't know whether they exist or not.

Staring at Hephaestus, Gu Bai found that his expression didn't look like he was fixing himself, but after taking the list into his mind, he tore the note to shreds.

(When I really collected these things, I didn't know what age Lu Dao was.) It's better to go home and kill the three brothers in "War of the Gods" and directly seize the sky, ocean, and underworld. οΌ‰

Just when Gu Bai thought like this, the colonists had already transformed all the human beings. These humans, who have not been injected with the evolutionary vaccine, are a little weaker after reincarnation. However, in this world, the proportion of human beings who have special skills in the soul is higher. One in 15,000 people. Among them, there are more than 3,000 human beings who can make psychological suggestions through their thoughts. When the last human being was transformed into a breeder, one of Gu Bai's high-level tasks in this world realm was to be completed. The human camp has been utterly destroyed.

"Then, it's time to start purging the reincarnators."

Colonizer, Black Beast. The summoned demons and creatures of hell began to stir up. The colonizers who have inherited the technology of the Human Federation have taken over the information of all living stars, and continue to send large armies to these planets to find reincarnators.

The reincarnators of the two parties, who were supposed to hold the army, tasted the taste of being encircled and suppressed this time. They didn't understand what Gu Bai had become the only remaining force. Or do you have to kill them with all your might. This is extinct mode, not killing mode, killing the reincarnator is not rewarded. Isn't it different to kill them by directly choosing to complete the mission and send them to the punishment plot?

Is it to covet the treasures of their bodies? The reincarnators don't know what to do. But the army drove them all the way, and no matter how many enemies they killed, their numbers never diminished.

Annihilate a large army today. Tomorrow there will be three tribes to surround them. Tomorrow he escaped from the city, and he was soon discovered. Under this endless pursuit, the reincarnators quickly ran out of hole cards and supplies. In the end, he either committed suicide or died on the battlefield. When it came to the time when the last few reincarnators who were good at concealment could not be found. The colonizers were not in a hurry, and began to colonize all living stars. After the full colonization was completed, it was by relying on the colonization to find the remaining reincarnations, and then a new round of extermination operations began.

After the last two reincarnators were determined to be no longer in any of the living stars, the colonists began to destroy the stars. Throw the Heart of Volcano into the planet, and when it matures, it will directly detonate the planet. The two reincarnators who did not reach the third-order genetic lock, although the will was firm but limited, did not explode in a desperate situation, but chose to perish, and died in their own hands at the end.

Five years have passed since the time the task was given to Gu Bai. The most detached person in the world, Kint is now completely immersed in self-questioning. Holding the Bible all day long and reciting words. The expression was firm and solemn at once, and weak and runny at once. From the beginning of the killing array in another dimension, until he was defeated by Hephaestus, he found that he could no longer get the strength from opening the gene lock. It was too much of a shock for him.

Hephaestus's words, in particular, made him question his own heart. The gap is the memory that can't be recalled in the other-dimensional killing array.

In the past five years, the fusion of Gu Bailing and body has reached 30%. He also devoured despair and obtained all the power of the third order. Although Bangyu couldn't be mastered for a while, under the will of the housekeeper, his influence on Gu Bai was also limited.

At this moment, the strength of Sancheng was higher than Gu Bai's previous full strength without burning. And all kinds of mysteries after the fusion of mind, soul and body are also endless.

The headache that had been gone recently found me again at the beginning of the fifth year. Every time you look at the starry sky, no matter how you look at it, the stars and the night will form a face of anger or hatred. Others can't see the outline of their faces at all, they only feel boundless. But Gu Bai can feel the existence of hatred.

"Is it the will of the universe? No, it should be a collection of the will of the world. After all, I've been sidetracked again. Neither human nor zerg"

At the same time, the insane Kint began to be sober in the fifth year, knowing that he was imprisoned, but he was not at all angry, but peaceful, although each time it was brief, and soon he would enter a state of madness. But Gu Bai watched him spend a little bit of time awake every day.

In recent days, he has even been able to speak, although he has few words and no specific meaning. But in those words, Gu Bai felt that Kint had gone further. Emerging from the obstacle, he may really be able to touch the threshold that Gu Bai can't even feel now. Fourth-order gene locks. So, to be on the safe side, not to be the first sermon stone of Kinte, he decided not to put it off any longer. After killing the three treasures in desperation, Gu Bai broke Kinte's neck and devoured him.

"In this way, all the reincarnators in this world, except for those who died at the beginning, have become my food." (To be continued......)
