"It's simple."

Grossel brought out the rhetoric he had prepared in the morning, and said seriously:

"As long as you believe in other beings."

At first glance it sounds reasonable-

The Lord of Faith in Silver City has killed the king of the giants, so the giants cannot let you go.

But if Silver City changes to a new faith, then the giants have no reason to stop you.

As simple as it sounds, it's easy to do.

But these words have completely different meanings in the ears of different people.

For the average believer, their belief in the gods is far from strong, and it makes sense to change their faith in exchange for a chance to survive.

But for devout believers, they will see it as an insult to their faith and will inevitably fight to the death.

And which kind of Silver City belongs to?

Their faith has remained unchanged for thousands of years in the dark land of God's forsakenness, and such a belief is absolutely religious!

However, when the members of the exploration team heard about the giant's condition, they did not show any excesses, and even a faint look of hope resurfaced in their eyes.

Yes, the Silver City does believe in the Lord, and it has remained unchanged for thousands of years. But not because of how religious they are, but simply because they have no choice!

In the Dark Godforsaken Lands, the only god they knew was the ancient sun god!

But for thousands of years, the Lord they believed in never saved them!

If a new god could save them, most of the people in Silver City would not hesitate to change their beliefs - like Daric, like Lovia!

For Darek, it was the 'Fool' who saved him in his most desperate moments, and it was the 'Fool' who brought him new hope, so he would only believe in Mr. 'Fool'.

For Lovia, the Ancient Sun God couldn't save Silver City, so she chose the True Creator - she didn't know if the True Creator was really an incarnation of the Ancient Sun God, but at least the True Creator answered her prayers occasionally.

This alone is already many times stronger than the 'Ancient Sun God'.

They were, and so did the rest of Silver City, even the Chief - if Colin's faith was really religious enough, how could he possibly allow heretics like Derrick and Lovia to exist?

He acquiesced to Darik and Lovia's belief in other beings, as well as some of their outrageous behavior, because Colin pinned his hopes on the existence behind them to save Silver City!

Under the nervous and expectant gazes of the other members of the exploration team, Colin was silent for two seconds before slowly asking:

"What kind of existence?"

The gray-blue skinned giant looked at them with one straight eye, and said slowly:

"'Fool'."

Derrick almost didn't hold back, although he had already guessed in his heart, but when Grossell himself said the word 'Fool', Delic couldn't help but be secretly frightened - worthy of Mr. 'Fool'.

Colin Iliad calmly turned his gaze to Derrick, who knew the 'Fool'.

Because of his promotion to Sequence 3 ritual, he needs the blessing of a 'god'.

Of course, angels can achieve the same effect. But there were no angels in Silver City, and the gods they believed in never answered their prayers.

Therefore, he can only ask for help from other gods.

The only people in Silver City who have connections with the other gods are Darik and Lovia.

Although he was skeptical of the gods they believed in, the 'true creator' that Lovia believed in was significantly darker and more depraved, and posed no small threat to Silver City.

And the one in whom Derrick believes, even the way to give Derrick is the path of the 'Praiser' that represents the light.

Light and darkness are in front of you at the same time, as long as you are a normal person, you will tend to choose light.

It's the same with Colin.

He chose to pray to the 'fool' in Derik's mouth at the promotion ceremony, and even had the consciousness of making a sacrifice for it.

But the 'fool' did nothing, he just blessed and then disappeared.

If it weren't for that, Colin wouldn't have dared to let the other elder of the Council of Six, Wether Schillmon, be promoted to Sequence 3 in the same way.

And it is.

The moment he chose the 'Fool', he had actually already decided the belief of Silver City.

But now, the giant named 'Grossell' also believes in the 'Fool', and even does not shy away from telling them that only believing in the 'Fool' can get them out of the God's forsaken land.

This surprised Colin, but it all seemed to make sense.

After all, he had met Grossell at the afternoon camp and later learned from his probing of Derick and Lovia that Derik reacted to Grossel and Ember's names, which meant that he actually knew the two outsiders - even if he tried his best to hide them, Derik was clearly not the kind of person who was good at acting.

Born and raised in Silver City, Derrick has always been watched by Colin himself even when he goes out to explore, and the only way he can establish contact with outsiders is the 'Fool'.

And the reason why they met was apparently because they both believed in the 'fool'......

Many thoughts flashed through Colin Iliad's mind, and he looked up at the gray-blue skin giant, and said in a solemn tone:

"We are the believers of the 'fools.'"

Grossel was stunned for a moment, and scratched his head with his hand, which he couldn't fix at once.

Shouldn't the script flow be the honorific name he tells Mr. 'Fool' and you recite it?

When Colin saw Grossell's expression, he knew that he was suspicious, and immediately recited it reverently in the language of giants:

"A fool who does not belong to this era, a mysterious lord above the gray mist, and a king of yellow and black who rules good fortune......"

After reciting the name of the 'Fool', Colin looked up at Grossel again and asked:

"Can we leave?"

"Huh? May I? ”

Grossell scratched his head, I don't make it!

Is there something wrong with this script? ——

"Is there something wrong with this script?"

Above the gray mist, the 'Fool' Klein, who was at the head of the bronze table, had a headache.

Grossell is a believer in him, so he specially asked Grossell to pray once when the Silver City Exploration Team entered the Giant Court, and then used the corresponding Crimson Star and the 'Poseidon Scepter' to expand their vision to a certain distance around them, so as to watch the 'live broadcast'.

The only problem is that this method of 'seeing' by praying for light cannot last long.

It had nothing to do with his own spirituality, it was that the connection would fade on its own, lasting at most three quarters of an hour.

Of course, in Klein's vision, three quarters of an hour was perfectly sufficient.

After all, Klein didn't plan to let Grossell and the Silver City Exploration Team clash, he just needed to spread his honorable name.

In the original plan, it should have been Grossell's request that 'only those who believe in fools can leave', and then the people of Silver City chose to compromise after a short inner struggle, and then returned to Silver City to promote the faith of 'fools'.

But he didn't expect that the chief of Silver City would not play his cards according to the routine, and actually directly admitted his belief in the 'fool'.

This was completely unexpected, as the only thing he did to the Chief was to provide him with a certain 'blessing' at the other party's promotion to Sequence 3 ceremony last week, and nothing more.

He didn't expect the other party to believe in himself so easily, let alone that he would admit his 'faith' so frankly in front of the residents of Silver City who had always believed in the 'Sun God'!

Crane could understand the Silver City Chief's urgency to leave the Godforsaken Lands, but his actions still effectively disrupted Crane's plans.

And the reason why Klein did this was not because he intended to make things difficult for Silver City, but mainly because he had to do it-

He needs to use the miracle of Silver City's departure from Godforsaken Lands to become an Angel in Sequence 2, in other words, he needs more than enough anchors!

In fact, no matter which extraordinary path is, the higher the sequence, the more serious the crazy and inhuman tendencies, which will gradually transcend their own human nature, and must rely on external anchor help to maintain sufficient balance.

Normally, in Sequences 4 and 3, this situation is not so obvious, but at the angelic level, even if there are enough anchors to 'fix', they will fall into a gloomy, negative, and abnormal state from time to time, and must endure and confront alone, waiting for a relaxation.

It's like a sacred and solemn being, usually it seems that there is nothing wrong with it, it can answer your prayers, talk to you normally, and even make a few jokes, but sometimes, it can only hide in a dark room, hide in the shadows, tear off the surface of the skin, reveal the yin side, and show all kinds of signs of madness!

By the time of Sequence 3, it is considered a deity in a certain sense, and can respond to prayers within a certain range, so it needs a certain anchor. But because it is not yet at the angelic level, the anchor is not necessarily a believer, and can be replaced by something else, such as those distinct, occult imprints of life.

And that's what Klein did, and the reason why he was in a good state of mind now, without a split personality, without being uncontrollably cold and terrible, was because the imprint of the 'ancient scholars' in history was his anchor.

Sequence 3 can, but it doesn't mean that the angels in sequence 2 can do the same.

The angels of Sequence 2 are not to be tricked, and their 'anchors' must be enough believers.

This is also the reason why the gods need to preach, the believer is the anchor of the gods, a believer is an anchor, in this regard, there is no difference between a nobleman and a poor person, no one is noble, no one is lower.

In terms of numbers, the number of believers in the Seven Orthodox Churches is in the tens of millions!

And even if you only look at the 'evil gods' that those secret organizations believe in, their followers are at least tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands.

And in order to make sure that he doesn't get out of control in the process of promoting Sequence 2, Crane must have enough anchors before he can be promoted.

But it was impossible for him to preach in the Northern Continent, because he didn't have the ability and the time.

The people of the Northern Continent know that they can't just believe in evil gods, especially those who don't know what to turn out of that horn Gada. It takes a lot of time and effort to develop believers in the Northern Continent – and it requires an organized and premeditated propagation of the faith.

But Klein lacked the necessary conditions, he was only one man, and he could not do a large-scale mission.

Of course, he could also mobilize other members of the Tarot Society to help with the mission, but this was completely a matter of sacrifice.

Not only will this not necessarily have much effect, but it will inevitably expose the fact that Miss 'Justice' believes in 'fools', and then make it difficult for them to gain a foothold in their original church and faith.

Of course.

Klein can also choose another way—that is, to abandon the believers as an anchor and instead use the 'first fire' as an anchor.

That's what Grossell did, so even if he didn't have a single believer, he could be promoted to the Angel of Sequence 2.

But this path is equally unfeasible.

Grossell can do this because his limit is Sequence 2, and Ember doesn't expect him to become a god.

So he was given the greatest convenience.

But Crane is different, he is a man destined to ascend the throne of sequence 0 and destined to become a god!

And if you want to become a god, you can't miss any steps in the traditional sense.

And in this, it is undoubtedly crucial to have believers as anchors.

And now the question is, does Klein have enough anchors?

"Is my 'anchor' enough now?"

Klein muttered under his breath, a little uncertain.

In theory, he still has a lot of anchors - members of the Tarot Society can be counted as his followers. Although the number is somewhat small, and most of them are not associated with fanatics, they are at least moderately religious.

In addition to this, he has three main sources of believers.

The first part is the scattered ignorant youth.

This group of believers originated from the behavior of the Northern Light to spread the name of the 'fool'.

The Aurora Society's original intention was to find the believers of the 'fools', but it backfired.

The name of the 'fool' has spread so much that many ignorant young people who pursue unconventionality choose to pray to the 'fool'.

Of course, Klein never answered their prayers, so this part of the population can only be regarded as shallow believers, and it is difficult to say how useful they can be.

The second part is the followers of the 'sea god' Kavituwa, which is also the most numerous.

These believers have always believed in the so-called 'Poseidon', but the 'Poseidon' is now Klein's vest.

So these people are also Klein's believers, and to some extent they can also be regarded as 'fool' believers.

And the third part comes from the family of Abraham.

Mr. 'Men' personally stepped forward to mobilize the entire Abraham family to believe in the 'fool', and his appeal was not insignificant.

Therefore, although the time is still short, the Abrahamic family members are extremely 'religious' in their belief in the 'fools' - although they are still not fanaticals, but there are many devout believers among them.

Combined, these three groups of 'believers' are at least tens of thousands.

But Klein still felt a little unsafe, otherwise he wouldn't need to develop Silver City into his own believers.

So when Colin asked, Klein was a little entangled.
