Chapter 69: Negative Entropy

When Fei saw this scene, he immediately understood: his guess was correct!

The reason why the witch can maintain a low entropy state, or in other words, the reason why she can have a stronger power than ordinary people is rooted in the belief of the witch people in her.

According to Fei Cai's conjecture, faith is a kind of "negative entropy".

The so-called "negative entropy" refers to anything that can reduce the entropy value. For example, for an ordinary person, the healthy and orderly operation of the body is a low-entropy state, and to maintain this healthy state, the body must take in energy. Where does the energy come from? Nature is food.

Therefore, food is "negative entropy" relative to us. By ingesting it, we can maintain a healthy body with low entropy.

Now back to the relationship between the shrine maiden and the witch.

Witches accept the beliefs of the witches, so they can always maintain a low entropy state, and the witches export their faith, and the entropy increases, but because the base of the witches is much larger than the witches, the extra entropy shared by each person is not very large, and the impact on their own health is not large.

Therefore, to put it more cruelly, it is "the witch feeds on the witches", but the witches eat the faith of the witches.

This also explains another phenomenon: why is there only one shrine maiden in all small villages, and only large villages with a large number of shrine maidens have multiple shrine maidens?

The reason is simple, only if enough witches provide faith, the power of the witch can be maintained at a high level. If there are two shrine maidens in a small village, it is likely that the result is that both shrine maidens are weak. Such a stockade, even if it has appeared in the past, will soon be defeated and annexed by other stockades.

Therefore, after this process similar to natural selection and survival of the fittest, in the end, the remaining small villages are only one shrine maiden, and as for the large number of large villages, due to the abundance of belief "resources", multiple shrine maidens can coexist.

After understanding the reason why the shrine maiden was able to maintain a low-entropy state, the next question was: what should Fei Cai do if he wanted to maintain a low-entropy state?

Is it also by the faith of the witches?

I'm afraid it's not that simple.

The beliefs of the Umbers may have a small effect, but they definitely do not play a major role. After Fei Cai appeared in Biluo Village as a divine envoy, after several displays of "miracles", he had no less faith than Biluo at this moment.

But his strength can only levitate a few kilograms of objects in the air at most, which is far less than Biluo.

But just now, at the moment when Biluo's strength increased, Fei Cai was also pleasantly surprised to find that his strength had also increased a little!

With this discovery, he soon had a bold explanation in mind:

Because in the normal state, his own strength far exceeds that of the shrine maid, so if he wants to maintain a low entropy state, he needs much more "negative entropy" than the shrine maiden, and the witches' belief in him is just a drop in the bucket, what he really needs is the shrine maiden's belief in himself! Moreover, if the witch's strength increases, he can output more "negative entropy" to him, and his strength will therefore rise.

To put it simply, it is "to feed on the witch maiden yourself"! Of course, Fei Cai didn't really want to eat these cute witch girls, what he ate was just the faith of the witches.

In this way, the reason why his power has not been able to improve after the passage of time is clear - because there has always been only one witch who believes in him, that is, Biluo.

In the same way, this conjecture can also explain why just now, my own strength has increased a little?

The reason is obvious: because Biluo's power has increased just now.

If this hypothesis is to be tested, there is only one way: to get more shrine maidens to believe in him. This is a metaphor for the name of the mission at this stage - to capture "those" shrine maidens.

Fei Cai's intuition told him that his conjecture was probably correct!

Assuming this conjecture was correct, the essence of what he saw was enough to make him gasp when he looked at the whole picture.

Isn't this just a food chain?!

The witch feeds on the witches, and Fei Cai feeds on the witches. If a theocratic society is really established in the future, Fei Cai, as the top of the food chain, will eventually converge on him, and at that time, the power he has is likely to be infinitely close to the gods!

When he first decided to create a theocratic society, he just thought it was more interesting. But now it seems that the path I unintentionally chose may be the best way to clear this farming task!

At the same time that Fei Cai was full of thoughts, Biluo had already completed the display of the "power of the witch god", and the subsequent sacrificial activities gradually came to an end.

When the sacrificial activities were finally over, Fei Cai let Biluo return to the stone building with him.

"Well done!" he complimented.

When Biluo heard this, she suddenly became embarrassed: "This, this is all thanks to the teaching of Lord Fei Cai...... I don't know what's going on, but when I quote the oracle of the Great Witch God, the power I gain suddenly becomes stronger!"

Regarding this, Fei Cai had already thought of an explanation, of course he couldn't say the real reason, because in this reason, there was no place for a witch god.

Therefore, he prepared another version of it.

"This is, of course, because of the role of the altar. He smiled.

"Altar?" Biluo asked curiously.

"When I tell the villagers, I'm not completely lying to them. Although the 'building of a small altar' was too trivial for the great witches to notice, the altar helped to gather the faith of the villagers. Belief in the Witch God will help you gain more powerful Witch God power when invoking oracles. Fei Cai said.

"I see. Biluo said seriously.

"So, I'm not letting the villagers work in vain!" Fei Cai said with a smile.

"Let Lord Fei Cai bother......" Biluo said embarrassedly, she couldn't help but recall that at the beginning, she didn't really understand the reason why the gods made Lord Fei to build the altar in a hurry, who knew that in the end, it was to increase her strength......

Fei Cai suddenly spoke, interrupting Biluo's thoughts: "Next, there is one more thing that you need to do, although it is not difficult, but it takes some time, you just take your time." ”

"It doesn't matter, please ask Lord Fei Cai to command. Biluo said busily.

What Fei Cai wanted Biluo to do was to compile what he said during this time into a book. Including the setting of the witch gods, the setting of the divine domain, the story of the ascension of the kingdom of gods on earth, etc., it also includes several important "oracles" and "divine laws", such as Newton's three laws, the law of gravitation and Euclid's axioms, etc.

There would be a lot of writing work involved, so Fei Cai told Biluo that she could ask the elders to assist her. After the compilation of the books, the few literate people in the village can be found, and they can spread the "teachings" in the village according to the books, and transform the original vague and simple primitive beliefs among the witch people into real religions.

In this religion, there are detailed and specific stories and settings about the witch god and about the realm of the gods, which obviously helps to enhance the authenticity of the existence of the witch god.

At the same time, there is also a clear goal in this religion to establish a great kingdom of God and then ascend to the Divine Domain, which increases the cohesion of the Witch people. Increase their motivation.

The most important thing is that the theoretical knowledge of physics and mathematics is perfectly integrated into the teachings as oracles, and when the teachings are widely spread among the witches, gifted witches will naturally be able to understand these "oracles", so as to obtain the "power of the witch god" and become a witch.

This is much more reliable than the witches in the past who relied on speculation to explain natural phenomena, and it also saves people who are gifted to become witches taking many detours.

After listening to Fei Cai's instructions, Biluo not only did not feel troublesome, but was very happy: "Let the villagers accept the education of the witch god, Lord Fei Cai is really a good god!"

Seeing that the witch girl was so happy, Fei Ci suddenly had a small sense of accomplishment in his heart: "This is just the beginning, next, we have to establish the kingdom of God!"

"Yes!" replied Biluo, full of energy.

In the afternoon of the same day, the shrine maiden girl picked up her pen and began to write the doctrine.

When Fei saw this, he didn't bother her anymore. While he was thinking about things in his heart, he was enjoying this moment of leisure, and walked aimlessly around the stockade

The church was built and the altar was built—both of these milestones have now been completed. Biluo's strength has been greatly improved, and the faith and cohesion of the villagers have also strengthened a lot.

Next, it's time for him to think about the next thing: expansion.

And the first step of expansion, of course, is to defeat Jinglei Village and capture the witch of Jinglei Village alive!

But before that, Fei Cai decided to go to Yanli first and let him complete a small job.
