Chapter Twenty-Nine: What the Hell?
Knowing the rather negative energy side of Blessing from the two tragic examples of Dora and Penk, Gaia was surprised and moved her eyes to the Demon Twins:
"That'...... Miramich, how long have you been here? Do you feel like you're about to awaken and be blessed? ”
Shaking his head, the Demon Twins replied with a grin:
"Not really!"
"Mira and Mickey,"
"You don't need that,"
"Something at an unknown cost."
"After all, we are abyssal species."
"Everything is done at a clear price!"
As he spoke, the Demon Twins proudly puffed up their flat chests, making Gaia look away in reluctance to look directly:
"That means that blessing is something that is unique to the creatures of this world...... Ah, I'm sorry, but will monsters be blessed too? ”
After a moment's hesitation, Dora struggled to think before replying:
"It's true that ordinary monsters don't have any special abilities.,It's all an innate gift based on their physical fitness.,But when you're old and have wisdom.,At least the monsters that can communicate.,It seems that there really are some unique abilities.,But it's really hard to say whether it's a blessing.,Because everyone thinks it's a unique gift for wisdom......"
"In other words, if you put aside your prejudices, you can at least know that blessing is a unique ability of intelligent beings, right?"
Touching her chin, Gaia quickly made a judgment.
"Well, Mr. Gaia, if you think so, it's nothing, but I don't know if other people, especially the extremely stubborn scholars in the royal capital, approve it or not."
Directly spread her hands, Dora's words were full of disdain for the scholars of the royal capital.
Hearing this, Gaia muttered how these scholars had offended you, but it was not good to ask directly, so he led the topic in another direction:
"I don't need their approval, and I don't need the approval of others in the world. More than that, I want to know, you seem to have been talking about a being called a legend, and what is it? ”
In response to Gaia's question, Penck and Dora first looked at each other, and then Dora, not Penke, explained:
"Let me, someone who is closer to a legend, explain this question.
The so-called legend is actually not a classification of strength, but an adjective for the truly strong in modern times. ”
There's no strength rating......
I thought there would be some low-level, intermediate-level, high-level, and then legendary, demigod, and god level classification.
Realizing that the world in her body was indeed different, Gaia immediately retracted her thoughts and began to listen carefully to Dora's explanation.
"Legends are strong, there's no doubt about it, but the strong are not necessarily legends, this is because if you want to really enter the ranks of legends, ability awakening, magic content, and even blessing ability are not reference standards, real reference standards-"
As he spoke, he stretched out a hand and pointed to the endless mountains in the Black Forest outside the window:
"It is the ability to destroy a hill in one attack without the help of any external force, and only such a strong person can be called a legend."
Oh, that's about the same power as the magic missiles of the previous civilization.
It's just that there were thousands of magic missiles in the previous civilization, and it is estimated that there are far fewer legendary powerhouses in modern times, otherwise the legend would not be given such a rare name.
It's just that......
Remembering the weapons of previous civilizations, Gaia began to feel melancholy.
Do you want to introduce the technology of previous civilizations into the modern world?
If they can give them the experience of their predecessors, they can not only avoid many detours, but also greatly shorten the time required for the progress of science and technology.
But......
I think of the Magic Nuclear Purge that filled the Observer replay, and the devastation after the war, the painful cries of the children who lost their parents, and the desperate wails of the parents who lost their children......
Gaia has never been able to make a decision on whether or not to promote the faster growth of modern intelligent beings.
"Mr. Gaia?"
What to do? Although he is in this world now, judging from the initial experience, it is difficult to control this group of wild horses.
"Mr. Gaia?!"
If they can't be controlled, then the consequences will only be more terrible than now, and when the time comes, not only will a civilization die, but it will be more likely to put itself on the hook, or cause even worse results......
"Mr. Gaia!"
A shout almost close to Gaia's ear made him suddenly come back to his senses, and looked at Dora, who was puffing up beside him, and suddenly an embarrassed expression appeared on his face:
"I'm sorry, I'm thinking about one thing, I'm a little fascinated and I can't hear your call, Miss Dora, my fault, my fault."
"Really, what are you thinking, Mr. Gaia?"
Pursing her mouth and sitting back in her seat, Dora looked depressed:
"It's a beautiful girl swapping you next to you, what could be more attractive than a beautiful girl?"
Glancing at Dora's scaly dragon claw hand and thinking about her true age, the Demon Twins suddenly let out a sneer.
"Ah, Miss Dora, I still have a problem here."
Hurrying to attract Dora's attention and prevent her from pinching the demon twins, Gaia asked with a smile:
"If the blessing is good and bad, but it can be regarded as a gift to intelligent beings in general, then those who are not blessed well, or are not very suitable for use, still have a chance to become legends?"
Originally, Gaia just asked casually, but he never thought that Dora would nod his head happily:
"Yes!"
"Huh?"
This time, Gaia was stunned.
Seeing Gaia's expression, Dora suddenly forgot about the unhappiness between her and the demon twins, and said with a grin:
"The Mother Goddess is fair and loving, and even if the blessed effect is not very good for battle, there is still a precious presence in the world.
Since the demise of civilization in the last era, scholars have begun to study the path beyond blessing, after all, this kind of thing that fell from the sky may one day disappear out of thin air, right? ”
After so much chatter, Dora suddenly felt a little thirsty, and just as she wanted to ask the liquor store to bring her something to drink, Penk had already handed her a glass of silky beer.
After smiling and thanking Penk, Dora took a very ladylike sip, licked the beer foam off her mouth with her forked tongue, and continued to explain to Gaia, who was waiting patiently:
"So, over time, the scholars finally developed a method that could rationally use magic according to the unused purpose—that is, spells.
According to the proficiency and number of spells, from weak to strong, they can be divided into street magicians, magicians with a certain degree of attack power and functionality, and magicians comparable to legends. ”
