It's just that one day, suddenly.

The creator disappeared from this world.

All he left behind was this liturgical clock tower.

In this clock tower, all the knowledge based on this world is stored.

And the one who maintains this clock tower is the sage who has inherited the creator's philosophy.

A sage in the absolute neutral camp.

They don't take sides, they don't belong to humans, they don't belong to orcs, they don't belong to any other race, or faction.

They are merely observers and recorders of all things.

and inherited the will of the creator and served as the guardian of this world.

The extinction of any race is a meaningless thing for them, and there is only one thing they care about, and that is to let this world continue.

Among the clock towers.

Inside the pitch-black tower.

The interior of the tower, which is presented, is an inverted round platform shape.

At the bottom of the inverted round table, there is a round table.

On the round table, there are thirteen seats.

On all thirteen seats, a hazy shadow sits awkward.

These three seats belong to the thirteen great sages of the clock tower!

They are the thirteen most virtuous and oldest of all races in this world.

They may have been born Terran.

It is also possible to be born into the orc family.

The truth of their identities is unknown to anyone.

It's a secret.

For the rest, there are also hazy figures sitting on the surrounding circles of seats that look like inverted round platforms.

Their identities are also secret.

They may or may not be sages.

But those who were invited to join the clock tower were all quite knowledgeable and insightful.

Under normal circumstances, it is rare for a clock tower to hold such a large meeting.

Because the clock tower itself is just a loose secret organization.

The members of the clock tower themselves have their own identities on the surface.

Some are kings.

Some are librarians.

There are also some peddlers and pawns.

Even bandits, robbers.

It's all possible.

And once the clock tower convenes such an all-staff meeting, it means that great changes have taken place in this world.

Or rather, on a huge divergent path.

It is up to them, as the watchers and guardians of this world, to decide the future of this world!

"Today, let everyone come here, I believe, some people, already know what it is for. ”

At the round table, a hazy voice made an old voice.

His voice was very calm.

The water is calm as if there is not the slightest ripple.

But it gives people a very heavy and powerful feeling.

As his words fell, all the figures in the surrounding seats had solemn expressions.

"Buddha. ”

"In other words, Buddhism, or rather, this lazy mind, has become a poison that poisons our world!"

"If we let this lazy and evasive thinking continue to spread, then our world will inevitably go to decay and decline in laziness!"

"It's already, predictable. ”

The figure who had just spoken spoke again.

His words fell, and immediately on the round table, another figure spoke,

"Buddhism. ”

"It originated 16,000 years ago. ”

According to the Clock Tower documents, the Buddhist Buddha Iliya von Einzberen received the apocalypse and became the first saint of Buddhism in the prison of the jackals. ”

Later, Illya von Einzberen, who became a saint, killed the gnoll god Hoddy Jones, and then defeated the gnoll god Hoffman as a saint, and then ascended to the god and became the first god of Buddhism. ”

After that, the Buddha Illya von Einzberen established the Buddhist shrine of Dongmu Buddha. The idea of Buddhism began to spread on a large scale!"

"Where Buddhism spreads, it does benefit the world. ”

It's just that now, 16,000 years later, with the rotten spread of Buddhism, nearly a quarter of the world's intelligent beings are followers of Buddhism. ”

"The ideas of Buddhism have eroded the world. ”

"Greed, jealousy, lust, hatred, selfishness, these are all defects and negative things that are common to all living beings. ”

"But the reason why the world, or rather, civilization, can progress and develop, is also inseparable from these. ”

Buddhism, on the other hand, is to let all races, all lives, abandon all these things, and in the mind, all that is left is compassion and charity, so that the life of this world is all satisfied with the present and does not want to forge ahead. ”

"All these followers of Buddhism have lost their minds, their souls have been imprisoned, and they have become puppets of Buddhism. ”

"The civilization of this world will continue to decline until it perishes!"

"Now, we must curb the spread of Buddhism and bring the civilization and ideas of the world back to the times of prosperity and competition. ”

"Agreed, vote. ”

The figure said, and he raised his hand.

As he raised his hand, many people raised their hands on the seats of the entire clock tower.

However, in the end, among the thirteen highest-ranking great sages at the entire round table, only one did not raise his hand.

"Lord Lance, do you have any objections?"

The others of the thirteen Great Sages asked towards the last one, who had not raised their hands.

At this moment, it seemed that the eyes of all the seats around him were looking towards this Lance.

Lance, not his real name.

It's just his pronoun.

Under everyone's gaze, this great sage, known as Lance, slowly stretched out his hand.

It's just hands.

And under the gaze of all the figures, he folded his hands, and then muttered,

"Amitabha. ”

The sound of Buddha fell, and everyone present seemed to show a stunned gaze in their eyes!

And the great sage, who was pronounced Lance, just looked at the people around him with a compassionate gaze, and then said,

"Wait, it's sad. ”

"What's wrong with spreading the Dharma and eliminating wars, discrimination, and killings in this world, so that all people can live equally?"

"Why, you people, are blinded by worldly desires. ”

"Pathetic, really sad!"

He said, shaking his head as if in pain.

Then, in the midst of everyone's stunned gazes, he spoke again,

"You have a lot of karma, and you can't help it. ”

"Then, let the old man overtake you!"

His words fell, and on the surrounding round table seats, a figure shouted,

"All of them are disconnected from the link of thought!"
