CHAPTER XXXI
(Happy New Year!I wish you all good health in the new year, smooth work, smooth study and progress, and all the best~)
Sui Xiong has never been a soft egg who admits cowardice when he is beaten, when he is still a human being, he is a physical practitioner of "repaying virtue with virtue and repaying grievances with grievances". Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
If the god of conspiracy dares to incite the believers to calculate him, he will fight him back!
For example, swallowing the other person's oracle.
In the face of this arrogant provocation, the god of conspiracy was of course furious, he had not encountered the situation of his divine envoy being intercepted and killed, but he was actually intercepted by a stupid big jellyfish, and it seemed that he was going to become the supper of this big fool...... It's tolerable, it's unbearable!
So he didn't think much about it, and directly urged the divine power, and a black crack appeared in the night sky, and hundreds of black-robed dwarfs flew out of the crack. They have broad fleshy wings behind them and a pure black aura on the top of their heads, and with the magic granted by the aura, they are able to dodge most detection spells. Each dwarf is armed with a pair of black daggers, a weapon known as the "Blade of Betrayal", which contains a poison that can kill when the skin is scratched.
This is the Slayer, the army of the gods of conspiracy, legions of terror killers under the cover of shadows. If Wren goes to the kingdom of the God of Conspiracy after his death, it is very likely that he will also be transformed into such a murderer.
In the face of countless killers, Sui Xiong didn't buy it, the huge jellyfish opened a bloody mouth on the top of his head, and a dazzling white light sprayed out, turning into thousands of light arrows, each arrow penetrating the body of a killer.
These arrows of light are made up of strong positive energy, which clash with the negative energy that makes up the body of the killer. Countless explosions were heard, and all the killers were swept away, leaving not a single one behind.
"Come again! If you have any ability, let the horse come!"
Sui Xiong waved his tentacles and roared loudly at the god of conspiracy behind that crack.
The god of conspiracy was so angry that his whole body trembled, he could no longer care about the consumption of divine power, and waved the artifact in his hand fiercely, only to see a black thunderbolt pierce the sky and smash straight towards the damn big jellyfish.
When the thunder fell, Sui Xiong was not afraid, and waved a tentacle to meet it.
The thick tentacles surrounded by dazzling blue light and the black thunder collided heavily, and a low roar rang out in the sky, and the invisible shockwave tore the light clouds of the night to pieces, scattering them in all directions.
The unscathed jellyfish laughed and waved its tentacles triumphantly towards the sky, and a huge human face appeared on its broad back, full of mockery.
Seeing such a scene, the god of conspiracy calmed down.
He knew very well his situation, he was not a valiant and warlike god, and unless he was desperate to move the kingdom of God to the ground, if he shot out of the air, the power of a full blow would be about the level of the lightning just now. Since this weird big jellyfish can easily resist its own lightning, then I'm afraid I really can't do anything about it.
Of course, he could try to descend on a doppelganger, such as the four-faced monster that was slowly being dragged towards the jellyfish's mouth. But after much deliberation, He gave up on this plan.
It's not worth risking the loss of a doppelganger for them with a little face, just a mere oracle.
I don't know what the origin of this great jellyfish is, maybe there is some powerful and good god behind it, such as the great lion who likes to travel in the world, or the righteous maniac who has fought with almost all the gods, and ...... If you think about it, there are so many enemies that you can't count them all in a while.
What's more, his "interpersonal relationships" are no better than those righteous maniacs, once they come to the world, not to mention those gods who have enemies, even if they don't, I'm afraid they will be hit twice.
Thinking of this, the great god of conspiracy sneered, severed the connection with the captured four-faced monster, and stopped looking at the area.
In the deep night, only a cold phrase "Beware of daggers stabbed from behind" fluttered in the wind.
There is no shame in admitting cowardice, not to mention that he does not need face at all.
As for the believer who is still restless and prays to Him after a while? Uh, what is that, He's so busy, where would he remember such a little thing......
Regardless of Ren, who was in despair, the audience in the treasure cave was also a little dazed at the moment.
Sui Xiong's confrontation with the god of conspiracy was clearly projected into the treasure cave. The two spectators, Gerard and Parin, were so stunned that their minds came to a standstill.
Oh my God, what did they see! A true god was repulsed, forced to abandon his oracle, and retreated in disgrace!
"Although I always knew that His Majesty was powerful, I never thought He was so powerful......" Gerald scratched his head, his mouth open and closed, not knowing what to say.
Palin's face was full of surprise, and he whispered, "That'...... Is it also a deity?"
"Uh, yes. That's the god I believe in, Your Majesty the Void Masquerade. โ
"Him...... What is His ministry and doctrine?" Palin asked, "How do you need to pray if you want to believe in Him?"
Obviously, after witnessing the power of this unknown deity, the young mage had already moved his heart to throw himself into the arms of this deity.
Palin did not believe in gods in the past, and although he prayed to the gods of the dwarf clan with his elders, or to the goddess of luck, this prayer was mostly of a coping nature. He did not genuinely endorse the teachings of a particular deity, nor did he touch his heart for the greatness of a particular deity. According to religious people, he is a non-believer, and even if he occasionally recites the name of God or prays to God, he has no sincerity, let alone faith.
In this world, religious circles divide people's beliefs into six grades: non-faith, non-faith, pan-faith, sincere faith, fanatical faith, and holy faith. Non-believers are those who do not believe in gods but do not recognize their existence, avoters are those who admit the existence of gods but are not willing to give their beliefs, pan-believers are those who see faith as a bargain and pray only when they need the gods' blessings, or hope to be rewarded for their prayers, sincere faith refers to those who approve of the teachings of the gods, pray sincerely without distractions, and are willing to go to the kingdom of God after death, fanatical beliefs are those who not only believe in the gods themselves, but also are keen to spread the faith and strive to make more people believe, and holy faith refers to those who strictly follow the teachingsA person who can fully embody the will of the gods like a divine envoy.
Among the people Sui Xiong met, Old Soth was a pan-believer in Lady Luck, Wren was a sincere believer in the god of conspiracy, Palin was a non-believer, and Gerald was ...... The degree of his faith is difficult to define, and in terms of personal feelings, he must be very keen to shed his blood for His Majesty Mask of the Void, which is completely up to the standard of a fanatical believer, but he knows nothing about the priesthood and teachings of his own gods, and he is not even a pan-believer in this regard. The reason for this is really Sui Xiong's own pot - who told him that he himself didn't understand what his priesthood was, and he didn't even bother to compile the doctrine......
Strictly speaking, until now, Sui Xiong has not yet determined whether he is a god or not.
So when Parin asked Gerald about the priesthood and teachings of His Majesty the Void Mask, and sincerely expressed that he wanted to believe in this god, not only Gerard was stuck, but even Sui Xiong looked embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
After a while, Gerald, who still thinks about this kind of question often, came up with the answer first: "Your Majesty is a naturally promoted deity, who derives its power from the roots of the world, and has not developed beliefs and doctrines for mortals for the time being. โ
"I see, it's similar to the ancient gods of nature, right?" As a mage, Parin was still very proficient in the occult, and immediately understood what Gerald meant, and based on this, he deduced and expanded on his own, and came to a rather lofty conclusion, "Although I know such as the gods of the four elements, the gods of the earth, and the gods of the sky...... These great gods are all ancient gods of nature, and the belief in mortal things can neither increase their brilliance nor cause any damage to them, but I really didn't expect that I could actually see an ancient god of nature with my own eyesโor a new ancient god of nature!"
He thought about it for a while, but persuaded again: "However, Brother White, I think it is better for His Majesty to develop a faith in the world. Naturally, the growth of the power of the ancient gods is always too slow, and if it is in the ignorant primeval world, of course he has time to grow slowly. But now that the time of prosperity is over, a god who grows in power only by natural growth is an easy target for those evil gods to attack and plunder. Sure, He's very powerful, powerful enough to withstand the intrigues of the gods of conspiracy, but what if several evil gods come together to attack?"
Parin was right-hearted, reasonable, and well-founded, not only Gerrard nodded again and again, but Sui Xiong was also deeply impressed. However, he really couldn't think of how he could develop his faith, did he really want to spend money to build a few pioneer villages, as Gerard said, and force the residents of the villages to worship him every day?
No matter how you look at it, that approach is not very reliable...... Even if there are many people who worship themselves every day, they don't know what doctrine to follow them, let alone what kind of protection they can give them.
Most importantly, the reason why people in this world believe in God is not to a large extent to be blessed when they are alive, but to be able to be reborn in the kingdom of God without going to the underworld after death.
However...... Sui Xiong did not have a kingdom of God at all.
"Then Brother Parin, where do you think Your Majesty should start now?" Gerald didn't think so much, he always didn't understand and asked, and was used to leaving the things he thought to smart people, and just focus on execution.
Parin gently stroked the cover of the book in his hand, lost in thought.
Although he didn't know much about things like the belief in gods as a young low-level mage, he was already the only high-level intellectual for the "Church of the Void Mask", whose talents were so withered that he could count them twice on one hand.
He is responsible for the things that use his brain.
