Chapter 1047: Ascension Ritual Original Plan
After the transfer of the textbook was completed, Xia Duo went to the rest area on the side of the laboratory to sit down, brewed himself a cup of Bonu tea, and then projected part of his consciousness into the portable space, and viewed the contents of the book in this way.
There is no exposition of the principle of ascension in the book, only the specific steps of operation, and some of the steps are even unknown.
Chadordo found some familiar shadows, such as the statue of the princess that had been found a few times in Savile, and he had previously guessed that it might have something to do with faith.
The truth is, it does have to do with faith.
In the Ascension Ritual Manual, that kind of figurine is called a "statue of faith", and in addition to several figurines that are thrown out, a life-size statue is required.
The process of infecting the statue with the power of faith, or using the statue to carry the faith, in conjunction with a specific altar, is called "sanctification".
Of course, it is not possible to ascend to the gods with the power of faith, in fact, it is far from it!
It can even be said that the power of faith is not necessary for ascension, and what ascension really relies on is the force that is guided and gathered by the power of faith.
The nature of the Force is not described in detail in the book, or even in a simple word.
According to the book, the key to the ascension ritual is the collision of the Force and the power of order, resulting in the birth of a power called Divine Fire.
As long as the divine fire is born, then the ascension is considered successful.
As for the power of order, it is a power that is born from the leader of the ascension ceremony, through a certain order established by itself.
In the past, Chardo didn't think that the power of order was real, although Wright often used the word on his lips, and there are many sentences about the power of order in the Divine Proverbs of the Lord of Light.
For example, "only by not doubting the decision of the superior can the power of order grow", "order is eternal, and the brilliance is eternal".
But Chado has always regarded the power of order as a metaphysical force that exists only in concepts, similar to the power of the state.
Although it is true that a country can do many incredible things, there is no specific force called "National Power" that really exists.
He had always thought so until he went through the princess's ascension ceremony, in which he was dragged into the cycle of order related to the development, and it was only at that moment that he was truly sure that this power was real.
It's just that it may be difficult for ordinary people, even ordinary mages and arcane masters, to have direct access to this power.
However, the ascension ritual information book that Jenna gave him contains instructions on how to channel the power of order, and even how to construct a cycle of order.
Moreover, he found that the [Power of Order] is really suitable for the lord to use in essence, and the territory is a large order system that embraces all kinds of small orders, and the lord is naturally the controller of this [Power of Order].
It's a pity that the [Power of Order] is obviously true, but it cannot interfere with reality, but is deeply affected by reality, and any change in the order of reality will be reflected in the nature of [Power of Order].
Xia Duo rummaged through the entire resource book, but could not find a way to transform the [Power of Order] into a force that could interfere with reality.
In other words, it is only through ascension that the intervention in reality can be completed indirectly.
On this point, Xia Duo was skeptical for the time being, after all, it was impossible for elves to hand over everything to humans, and it was normal to keep one hand.
And the princess did not act exactly according to the ascension plan given by the elves, which seems to indicate this, the elves have something to hide, or the methods provided by the elves are hidden dangers.
According to the ascension scheme given in the book, the princess was to establish a system of fifth-class noble titles in Nessreel, artificially dividing the ranks.
And the princess found this kind of plan and finally achieved the "god of nobility".
During a recent meeting with President Jenna, she said that the princess had adapted and improved the original version of the ritual given by the elves during the actual ascension, and that may have been the reason for this.
In fact, at the beginning, the princess granted a large number of "pioneer" titles, which was to pave the way for the establishment of a fifth-class aristocratic title system, but for some reason, it was not continued later.
Maybe it's because he noticed the hidden dangers in the plan given by the elves, or maybe it's some other reason.
Of course, Chado now knew that the princess would eventually achieve the "god of exploration and protection", not the "god of nobility" mentioned in the book.
And he speculated that the princess's ascension ceremony may not only be adjusted to the "god name" (order), but there may be other adjustments, or improvements.
Xia Duo had just received the ascension information not long ago, and he couldn't understand the mystery for the time being, but one thing he was sure of was that the transition between the gods and the great arcanist was not smooth, but almost soaring, and the risk must be not small.
The collision between the Force and the power of order in the ascension ceremony is too mysterious, and there is no quantitative standard given in the book at all, and everything is controlled by the leader of the ritual.
If the princess can succeed, others may not be equally successful even if they completely replicate the path of ascension that the princess has walked.
Rather than seeking to leap upwards, Shado prefers to climb the magical path little by little, which may be slower, but more stable and safer.
The future does not necessarily mean that it cannot be a being alongside God.
And most crucially, there are almost no variables in the path of magic, one is one, two is two, and the (relative) truth is the same for all.
As long as there is technology, then this technology can be generalized to everyone.
Theoretically, it is possible for the scene of "everyone becomes a god" to be real.
……
The headquarters of the Austrian French Federation, in a private laboratory.
Xia Duo removed the index knuckle against the center of his eyebrows, and after thinking for a long time, the Bono tea in the cup was cold, he took a small sip of the cup, and immediately frowned.
"Sure enough, Bonu tea still has to be drunk while it's hot!"
The effect of cold tea in soothing the spirit is not much lower than that of hot tea, but it is more than a step worse in taste, not only the aroma is greatly reduced, but also the special taste of hot tea alternating between hot and cold.
A few casual flicks of the magic net string in front of him, attracting a fire elemental vortex from the elemental plane, and after turning around in the teacup, a trace of mist rose from the mouth of the cup again.
Xia Duo brought the cup to his lips, took another sip, and couldn't help but light up his eyes, "This time it's right!" ”
However, the reheated tea was still worse than the newly brewed one after all, and Xia Duo drained all the Bonu tea in the cup in a few sips, and did not continue to brew.
Thinking over the steps of the ascension ritual, he realized that it might indeed be used by the elves to plague Nesser.
The probability of success of the ceremony is not to be discussed for the time being, the key is the process, in which there are too many things to test human nature.
Not to mention anything else, just Xia Duo, who has read the information for a while, can now come up with a way to complete the ritual quickly.
