Chapter 1125: The Level of the Gods
"Your layering method, although I don't agree with it, is easy to understand." Rocky Road.
"Oh? Why don't you agree? Su Ye asked.
"Obviously, if you follow your statement, the god king is only at the third layer, and most of the gods are only at the peak of the second layer, no different from ordinary humans, just a stronger monkey." Rocky Road.
Su Ye looked surprised and said, "That's how it was." ”
Loki glared at Su Ye, so angry that he couldn't speak, and said, "It's been many years since God can be angry with me, you are the first!" ”
"I don't think that the wise Odin is inferior to you fourth-tier people, after all, he created Runavin." Freya said.
Su Ye thought for a while and said, "I can give you an example." ”
"The beast of the first layer, see the fruit, and eat it. Glutton, so to speak. ”
"The people of the second layer, when they see the fruit, then protect the tree and eat the fruit in a steady stream. Smart glutton, so to speak. ”
"The people of the third layer observe and look for the patterns of fruit trees, and after eating the fruits, they plant seeds and plant new fruit trees. The people in this layer are more than the gluttons and are the growers. ”
"The people of the fourth layer analyze everything about fruit trees, such as why some fruits have patterns and another fruit has no patterns, so as to discover the growth secrets of these fruit trees, so as to find the growth laws of all fruit trees, so that people can better control the growth of fruit trees. These people are the sages of wisdom. ”
"People in the fifth layer, according to fruit trees and many phenomena, directly search for the essence of life, such as how these plants and animals have grown to their current appearance over a long period of time, and what kind of core and basic laws all life is following. These people are the great wise. ”
"Zeus is naturally powerful, has he thought about the reason for the formation of thunder? No, he just needs to keep cultivating to increase his control over his power. So, he's on the third layer. ”
"Odin's Runavon is a kind of power that he 'gets, sees' after drinking the water of the fountain of wisdom. Constantly using this power, spreading this power, he did not penetrate this power and look for the law behind it. So, he's still on the third floor. ”
"Actually, after I shared it with some high-level magicians, our use of Runavin is not as good as Odin's use of hundreds of thousands of years, but our understanding of it in some ways is far greater than Odin's. Give us a few hundred years at most, and our use of Lu Naven can completely surpass Odin. ”
"!" Freya retorted, but was not convinced.
"I don't believe it either!" Loki's tone was firm, and he didn't know that he thought he had reconciled with Odin.
Su Ye smiled and asked, "So, why do you think Odin gave Lu Naven to me?" ”
Freya and Loki were stunned for a moment, staring at Su Ye blankly, speechless for a long time.
After a long time, Loki guessed: "People who don't know Odin may have all kinds of speculations, but after listening to your words, I suddenly realized. Odin gave you Runavin for two reasons. ”
"First, he wants to pass on his Runavin and carry it forward, because he has taught Runavin to the Norse gods, but no one can learn it, let alone master great power."
"Second...... I hate to admit it, but I realized that Odin wanted to borrow the hand of your magician to delve into Runavin. You...... Send the results of your research to Odin often, right? Loki asked.
Without waiting for Su Ye to answer, Freya suddenly realized: "I said why did Odin suddenly turn the magic book occasionally, and the dark color was solemn, the key is that when he turned the magic book, his eyes would naturally appear golden Lu Navein, it turns out that he is learning Lu Nawen from you magicians!" ”
Su Ye smiled: "Each of our lives has a way of survival for each life, because at the beginning, this way of survival will indeed let us live, then, we will always use this method of survival." And this way of survival will also have a profound impact on us. Take Loki as an example, his mother doesn't care about him, his father beats and scolds him at every turn, and those ancient frost giants often bully him, then, he will instinctively feel that the surrounding environment is dangerous, he will feel that the people around him want to harm him, so he will be emotionally unstable, and any small thing can stimulate him and lead to an overreaction. ”
"Well, even if he joins the Norse gods, he will feel uneasy, and he will always use pranks to test whether others will really accept him. However, Odin will not, Odin has lived in a far more privileged environment than Loki since he was a child, his father is a god-king, he has brothers to fight together, and he believes in the gods around him far more than Loki. That's why Odin has accepted not only Odin, the frost giant, but also you, the Warners. When you recall the four major gods, only the Norse gods have actually accepted the main god of the rival gods, while the other gods have only accepted relatively weak gods. ”
"Their circumstances lead them to engage in these behaviors, and everyone makes excuses for their actions, which in turn reinforces them. In this way, they will repeat these ways of survival until they solidify into instinctive habits that are difficult to change. In a way, most people have given up thinking after middle age, and completely rely on the old experience and knowledge accumulated to judge, and completely rely on the fixed old behavior patterns to do things, if they make any changes, they will feel pain, and the pain will force them to return to the old track. So, Loki will be more Loki, and Odin will be more Odin. ”
"This angle...... Interesting......" Freya muttered to herself.
Loki's gaze was exceptionally complicated.
Su Ye continued: "Do you think that intelligent life will only be affected by the environment in this regard? When innate gods like Odin and Zeus have innate power, they only need to increase their power by constantly 'cultivating' and 'absorbing power', and they have spent hundreds of thousands of years doing so, then they will naturally think that their own way is the most correct. If it is replaced by the way of thinking and cultivation of magicians, it is equivalent to destroying everything they have built up over hundreds of thousands of years, whether it is their reason or instinct, whether it is their body or mind, it is unacceptable. ”
"That's where Zeus' fear comes from, and that's why Odin gave Runaveen to me. For both of them knew intellectually that the magician was not necessarily right, but he might be more correct than the gods. They also understand that if learning the way of thinking of a magician now, it is equivalent to overthrowing or even abandoning part of the power of the past, causing the power to plummet, and even becoming the main god, even if they return to the god king, it will be a long time later, and this is the price they cannot afford. So, they have no choice but to stick to their path. ”
"The gods thought it was too expensive to destroy the past, so they gave up on rebuilding."
"But what you don't know is that the cost of clinging to the mistakes of the past is higher."
Freya was shocked by this never-before-heard statement and said nothing.
After a long while, Loki said: "Actually, you humans are the same, those stubborn old people, that's what they look like, it's not that they are inherently bad, that's how they survived when they were young." It's just that the times have changed, and their way of survival is no longer suitable for the present, but they don't believe that they can change, and they don't want to change, so they can only become more stubborn. ”
"But we human beings are reproducing rapidly from generation to generation, ten years and one generation, each generation will be a little better than the previous generation, compared to the gods, we are constantly iterating rapidly, grandpa is stubborn and there is a father, the father is solidified and there is a son, the son is conservative and has a grandson. As long as we humans do not become extinct, one day, we will surpass the gods! ”
Loki and Freya looked at Su Ye blankly, vaguely understanding something, but they couldn't figure it out.
Su Ye smiled: "Although I see that Odin always wants to criticize him, but Odin is the wisest and most decisive among the four god kings. ”
"Why?" Loki asked.
"Amun-la of Egypt eats the ancients and maintains the power of decay through constant rebirth, which is not worth mentioning."
"Marduk was a fierce man, too belligerent, obsessed with expanding his territory, and only wanted to be big but not strong."
"Zeus is far more vicious and ambitious than the three god-kings, and what he wants is to become the king of god-kings, above all living beings."
"I don't like any of the three of them. Odin is the most pessimistic of the four god kings, he chooses to give in to fate, everything he does, points to the predetermined fate, this is what I dislike the most about him. However, he just despairs of himself, and he still has hope for the entire Norse god system. If I'm not mistaken, he's been secretly preparing for the Battle of Dusk, and he's been cultivating a true successor god. ”
"He was more timid than the other three god-kings, because he bowed to fate; He was also braver than the other three god kings, because he was willing to sacrifice himself in exchange for a new life in the Norse god system, rather than to survive like Egypt and Persia, and he was not willing to destroy all beings for his own sake like Zeus. ”
Loki stared at Su Ye and asked with a gloomy face, "That's why you chose to help Odin instead of me?" ”
"There's an element of that." Su Ye Dao.
"I heard that his human incarnation remained in Plato's Academy, but it did not save Plato's Academy." Loki grinned, revealing his black teeth corrupted by the poison, and smiled happily.
Su Ye lowered his head slightly, moved his gaze downward, and said: "He may not have achieved the result I wanted, and I do complain about him emotionally, but I believe that he must use his own methods to protect Plato's Academy, but we are not omniscient and cannot understand the responsibility he carries." ”
As he spoke, Su Ye raised his head, looked at Loki, and smiled: "It's like, I believe, he was willing to protect you with everything until you made him mistakenly think that you refused to trust him." ”
Loki changed color, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly.
Freya gently held Su Ye's arm, looked at Su Ye gently, and said, "I finally understand why Odin asked me to find you, and why I like you when I see you, I am the god of love, and I will always like the child with love in my heart." ”
"Sister, I'm about to turn 100 years old." Su Ye gave Freya a blank look.
