Chapter 334: The Answer Unveiled
Xiao Lei still didn't speak, the various encounters over the years had already made him have enough patience, he was waiting, quietly waiting for Simon to continue. He already had a hunch that Simon's next words should explain many of his questions. Moreover, these things that he said should be very amazing!
Sure enough, Simon's delicate face still had a smile on it, but his eyes were faintly terrifying, like a blade in winter, with a bit of coldness.
"Do you know what kind of world I come from?" Simon seems to be careful to organize his words: "In the Bible, I am from 'heaven,' in other words, I am from another world. I don't know how to explain it to you more clearly, maybe for an ordinary person, this concept is more difficult to understand, but fortunately, you are also a cultivator, and there is also a 'fairy world' in the East. Actually, whether I'm talking about the heavenly kingdom or the fairy world I'm talking about, it's actually a little worse. It is equivalent to another world, a world that is completely independent of the world we are in, another space outside this universe. I'm talking about another space, not another planet. Because Heaven is not in this universe. Simon smiled: "So, I'm not a so-called alien in the general sense." β
"The space I come from is another world that you can't understand, and I can't describe it in precise words, but I can tell you that my mission has been clear since I came to your world. Simon said slowly, "Before I say my mission." I need to ask you a question. What do you think...... In your eyes, what is the so-called earth church?"
"It's colonization!" Xiao Lei immediately replied without hesitation: "It is a kind of religious colonization, spiritual colonization! Quite simply, after the emergence of Christianity in this world, the dominant position established in the Western world, overthrew the previous religion, took its place, and then began to expand globally...... Now, almost all the world can see buildings with crosses!"
"It's hard to hear. But the metaphor is very vivid. Simon sighed: "My mission to come to this world is also related to this. β
"What, what else do you want to do?" Xiao Lei sneered: "In this world, there are already more than a billion people who believe in your religion...... Are you not satisfied? Or have you decided to include the East in your religious sphere?"
"Not really. Simon smiled bitterly: "We would be very willing, but in fact it is impossible." Whether it's what we call the kingdom of heaven. Or the so-called Earth Immortal Realm in your East, in fact, all exist. Even if we want to do this, the 'fairy world' behind you in the East will not allow it. To put it simply, the world we live in has already divided its spheres of influence. Even thousands of years ago, Christianity erased the imprint of the ancient Greek gods from the Western world, at great cost. If there's something you don't understand...... I can start you at the beginning. β
Simon smiled, but he laughed ugly. Then he raised his head, looked up at the sky, and said slowly: "A long, long time ago, ......" Speaking of this, he suddenly laughed at himself: "I'm sorry, this opening sentence is a bit clichΓ©d. β
Then he retracted his expression and continued: "A long, long time ago, when this world was still very young and very young, how long ago, I can't be sure. But definitely. It may even be as early as the beginning of the universe, or when there was just a time when there was an advanced life on Earth. Of course, at that time, there was no such thing as 'earth'. But at that time, on this earth. It is inhabited by several races, but two of them are the largest and also dominate the East and the West. What is certain is that the people of this world at that time had a completely different civilization from the human race today. They don't have technology, but they have magical spells, or rather, magic, divine powers. It was a mythical age! The East and the West were the two most powerful races, hostile to each other, and the backlog entrenched in their own territory. Later, after their civilization developed to a top level, they had enough ability to open up space and go from this world to another human space world. This was originally a good thing, because after discovering the new world of the end, at least two races would not have to fight to the death in the confined world. As a result, the Eastern and Western races have used their magical powers to open up their own new spaces, and they are willing to expand their new territories. But they soon discovered a problem......"
"What's the problem?" asked Xiao Lei.
"Very serious problem. Simon smiled bitterly: "Originally, after the two races discovered the new space, they had temporarily stopped fighting and were ready to focus on the development of the space. But in the end, it turned out that it was impossible. Because it was a new space opened up with divine power. To maintain that space, you must have enough divine power to maintain it, and you must have a steady stream of energy to maintain it, otherwise, that space will wither or even disappear. Do you know what the essence of so-called magic power, or divine power, is?"
"It's the power of energy. Xiao Lei sighed and said: "It's the so-called mental power, we call it 'qi' in the East, and you call it 'energy power' in the West, in fact, they are all about the same." β
"Yes, so, to maintain that new space, you need a steady stream of energy, that is, spiritual power. Simon smiled and said, "Is there any better way in this world to concentrate spiritual power than the model of 'religion'?"
"Nope. Little Ray sighed.
There's no denying that religion is a great way to focus people's spiritual power. Piety and fanaticism for religion can stimulate people's spiritual strength to the greatest extent, and can even be multiplied!
"Therefore, the two major categories of the East and the West originally thought that after discovering a way to open up a new space, everyone would not have to continue to struggle and continue to fight for territory. But now it seems that the struggle cannot be stopped, because they need to fight for more land and people in order to maintain their new space. They created new life, the name of which was 'human,' and gave them wisdom, taught them civilization, and then drew "the energy of faith from them...... However, the land is limited, and so is the 'human race'. Thus, the war between the East and the West continued......"
When Simon said this, Xiao Lei remembered the "Yellow Mistakes of the Gods" left by the ancient Greek gods that he had read. Simon's words are in line with what is described in that article.
So, Xiao Lei asked, "And then?"
And then ,...... Or is it unfortunate for you, but for ...... But it's a strange opportunity. We appeared when the two great words of the East and the West on the earth were fighting to the death. We came into this world. Simon's answer still reminded Lei of the unforgettable words in "Ragnarok".
"Here they are. β
And now, when Simon said the words "we are coming" in his mouth, Xiao Lei couldn't help but feel like listening to the person in charge tell the history.
"Are you here? you mean you didn't belong to this world?" asked Xiao Lei tentatively.
"Yes, we did not belong to this world, not to this earth, not even to this universe of yours. At that time, we came to your Earth and were treated as a new species, and our name was 'Feather'. The first to come to this world is not a large number, but we are similar to the two major races of the East and the West on the earth, and they are all races belonging to the magical civilization. We came from another universe, we just came here by accident, and the purpose of our coming is actually similar to the purpose of the struggle between the two races of the East and the West on Earth. We're here too...... Well, to put it simply, we're here to expand our territory. β
After a pause, Simon smiled and said, "It's a coincidence that we can stand, our race has developed to the stage where it can create a new space long before the two major races on the earth. Therefore, in order to maintain the new space and continue to develop, we need to open up more spiritual colonies, and we need to find more sources of spiritual power. So, back then, there was a group of people from the Feather Clan, wandering around in the universe, and finally found the earth, because there is life on the earth, so we decided to do what you said here...... Well, spiritual colonization. But we ran into obstacles...... There are already two races on the earth, the East and the West, and they have the same ability to open up new space as we do, and at the same time, they are also grabbing territory. If we fight them head-on, we outsiders will definitely not be opponents, so we chose to use a little strategy......"
Later, it is basically the same as what is said in "Ragnarok". The foreign Yu clan provoked the war between the two major races in the East and the West, and their purpose, Xiao Lei didn't need to ask, and he understood that it was nothing more than borrowing a knife to kill people, sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight.
However, there was an accident in the middle, which made the Yu clan's plan almost fail.
This accident is actually an ancient mythological story that Xiao Lei is very familiar with.
Nuwa makes up for the sky!
