Chapter 7: The Church of Knowledge
Alger, the hanged man, is more interested in weapons from another world, and he asks, "Do we ordinary people have a way to buy them?" ”
Alger, who has been adrift on the sea for many years, is very incapable of self-preservation, especially the threat of Hurricane Lieutenant General Ziringers.
If he can get a powerful weapon and destroy the opponent directly, Alger will be able to gain peace of mind, and may even enjoy the magical island in the strange sea.
If it was before, Alger would not have such an idea, after all, the gap between him and Zilingers is too big, but now that he has joined the Tarot Society of the mysterious Lord Fool, coupled with the landing of the spaceship in another world, this makes Alger feel the change of the world, and he has a hunch in his heart that if he can't keep up with this change, sooner or later he will be left behind by the speeding world.
Miss Justice heard Alger's inquiry, thought for a moment and responded: "Actually, if Mr. Hanged Man doesn't say it, I also want to ask, the Otherworlders plan to trade through a method called an online platform, this kind of trade can be done without meeting in reality, and the way and security of the transaction are guaranteed by the Otherworlders."
But the nobles, kings, and prime ministers of Rune didn't care about this matter, and even thought that this kind of online platform might not last long before it disappeared because there was no way to complete the transaction. ”
Miss Justice vaguely felt that this kind of online platform might have unimaginable advantages for ordinary people, but she couldn't figure it out herself.
Alger thought about it for a moment, and suddenly it occurred to him that this kind of platform was very similar to the model of their tarot club.
Last time, Alger had traded potions recipes for the extraordinary materials he needed.
If this method can be promoted......
Before Alger could say anything, he heard the Fool gently tap on the bronze tabletop, diverting everyone's attention, and then said, "It's actually quite simple, I have probably guessed the other party's thoughts. ”
When Klein heard about the online platform, he had some guesses in his heart, maybe the civilization behind the spaceship had met the earth?
Or is the development of all civilizations similar?
It's like the world is very similar to your own journey through pre-Victorian England.
So if the world continues to develop, similar to the electrical revolution, information technology will develop again, and the platform will naturally appear.
Klein didn't know if in this world, if there was such a thing as an online platform, he would be able to adapt to the environment of this world, but he thought that since everyone from the other world had done this, maybe he still had some confidence, right?
His Excellency the Fool said indifferently: "The platform is similar to the tarot meeting I held, or even more convenient than this, in the real world, many transactions that cannot be carried out and reached because of time and space can be communicated and reached online, just like the transactions that Miss Justice and Mr. Hanged Man made before, if it were not in the tarot meeting, but in reality, I think the two of them may not have the opportunity to meet at all." ”
When Klein said this, he paused, saw that both of them agreed very much, and continued: "And the online platform is the tarot club that has expanded countless times, and any transaction can be carried out on it, whether it is physical or information, news can be.
It's just that I can't think of what ability the other party will use to reach this kind of platform transaction and ensure the reasonableness and security of the transaction.
However, there is no doubt that if this kind of platform transaction can be concluded and expanded, it can form a kind of platform monopoly, and even charge a certain transaction fee to both parties to the transaction, and no one will object.
You can also use some kind of excuse to block a businessman, as long as the other party is not allowed to log in to the platform to trade, then for a long time, the businessman will most likely be squeezed down by his peers.
In short, once such a platform is established, it is like a machine waiting to collect money, and it is also like a huge power machine. ”
Klein sighed in his heart that the platform without regulation is too terrible, and what is even more terrible is that there is no regulation, and a platform with a monopoly in the de facto sense has been formed.
The words of Your Excellency the Fool provoked deep thought from Miss Justice and the Hanged Man.
The former felt that His Excellency the Fool was so knowledgeable that he could even think of the pros and cons of such an online platform.
And the hanging man simply thinks that if such an online platform can be established, then will they still have any advantages?
He thought about it for a long time, and finally thought that there was still a great fool in their Tarot Society, who could ensure that the Tarot Society's transactions were fair and just.
"Your Excellency Fool, if the other party wants to build a platform, what should they do in the first place?" Miss Justice continued.
Klein couldn't fully figure out this problem, and he could only use his previous experience to slowly say: "If the other party wants to build an online platform, then it must expand the influence of the platform at the beginning, increase the number of users and the number of times the platform is used."
That is, we must do everything we can to promote the platform, and when the scale and number of people on the platform reach a certain point, even if they no longer promote it, the platform will spontaneously expand and expand......"
Klein said something about his understanding of the platform, which made Justice and the Hanged Man very admirable.
Then, His Excellency the Fool changed the topic back, "That's probably all there is to it in terms of platforms, but after all, this is a platform made by people from another world, and I can't be completely sure what the final result will be. ”
By the way, Klein patched his words, lest the platform of the people from another world be completely different from what he expected after it was established, which would be a slap in the face.
Seeing this, Audrey no longer bothered about the platform, and she continued to talk back to the Otherworlders: "In addition to the transaction, the king and the church also agreed to the right of the Otherworlders to preach in Rune, and it is said that the owner of the spaceship handed the Congress a book that recorded the gods of the Otherworld, and asked to mainly promote one of the gods......"
At this point, Miss Justice turned her head to look at the Fool, as if to ask if she could go on?
If you want to continue, you can't avoid mentioning those gods of the other world.
Crane was still intrigued, and he nodded.
Miss Justice said: "The myth of the other world is like this, the legend is that the world is not alone, there are countless kinds of births in countless worlds, and some of them are created ...... creation of the creation god, just like our world. "What Audrey is talking about is obviously their world, in their cognition, the world was created by the Creator, and the gods after it were born from the Creator.
"There are worlds that originated ...... the Big Bang, well, similar to the hypothesis of the birth of a world proposed by Rousaille the Great, and there are worlds that are differentiated from other worlds, in short, there are many kinds of worlds.
And in countless worlds, there is a great being who has gathered countless warriors to travel through the world and interfere in the fate of mankind in countless worlds, and among these warriors, there are also those who come after them to become gods......" Audrey slowly told the 'myth' she saw from those materials, or that this is no longer a myth, but a material.
Klein listened to this slightly bland information until Audrey said the most crucial part: "What the owner of the spaceship asked the Rune Kingdom to promote is not that great being, but another god, who uses the language of another world, should be called Bianshida Jun......"
Miss Justice said in a slightly strange accent, and the Fool did not find it strange.
Until Audrey continued: "If translated into the language of our world, we can call Him the Lord of Knowledge."
I heard that the church of this Lord of Heaven is being established and prepared, if you believe in this Lord of Heaven, you will have the opportunity to obtain the blessing of some extraordinary ability...... extraordinary people in other worlds are not born by taking potions, but need self-meditation and self-perception to learn.
I heard that even mortals, if they have enough talent, can slowly comprehend themselves, become powerful and extraordinary, and even become gods, even including this Lord of Heaven, who was once an ordinary mortal......"
Crane listened, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
He carefully recalled what Miss Justice had said before, the title of the knowledgeable Lord of Heaven.
Flattened Tianzhun, flattened Tianzun? Identifying the Heavenly Venerable? Or is it all over the Heavenly Venerable?
Klein felt a great shock in his heart, but unfortunately he couldn't solve the doubts in his heart now, so he could only suppress the doubts in his heart, waiting to see if he could get a chance to solve his doubts in the future, or to see if Miss Justice could get more news and intelligence.
In addition, Miss Justice said that the church of the Heavenly Venerable is in preparation, and when there is a church of this Heavenly Venerable here in Tingen, he may be able to go and see it, if only he could see the other party's honorable name.
Klein was still thinking about it, and Miss Justice talked about it.
Miss Justice said, "By the way, there is also the name of the Lord of Heaven, because I cannot directly recite His name in the other person's language, which may attract the attention of the other party.
If this name is translated into the official language of Rune, it can be understood in this way: long-term thinking brings a yearning for the truth, and knowing the complexity of the truth leads to a desire to think about the laws in it, and only the Lord of Heaven, who has extensive knowledge, will not be troubled by this. ”
Klein pondered over this name, which is different from the three-stage names that this world points to gods, each of which refers to the power that a god has, or his power, or his status, and the combination of the three paragraphs can accurately refer to the other person.
In Klein's view, this three-stage honorific name is like making a phone call, as long as all three digits are dialed correctly, there will be no wrong call.
And this revered name of another world is obviously different, it only describes the power possessed by the other party, and it refers very generally, this passage is not so much a honorific name, but a propaganda slogan to spread the faith.
Among them, only the Heavenly Lord with extensive knowledge, that is, the All-Knowing Heavenly Venerable, pointed at the other party accurately.
However, there is also a certain philosophical meaning in this honorific name.
'Forget it, let's wait for the church of the Lord of Heaven to be established, and then I'll go and see!'
Judging from the speed at which Rune officially signed a cooperation agreement with the owner of the spaceship, Rune attaches great importance to the people of the other world, and Tingen is also a very important university city, so the other party should not let it go. ’
Klein knew that things couldn't be rushed, anyway, the spaceship was already there, and the church had already been established, so the other party wouldn't suddenly leave everything here and fly away on the spaceship, right?
He saw that the time was almost up, so he declared the meeting over.
Returning to the real world, Klein thought about whether there would be a business trip within the church, and then inquired for himself, if he could travel to Beckland.
Being able to get a closer look at the ship for yourself may be able to find some clues.
However, Klein didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly.
Of course, it's not an opportunity to travel, it's a task on the part of professionals.
Captain Dunn gathered the night watchmen who had become extraordinary today, and said, "You should all have read the newspapers, right?" Rune and the Aliens have reached a trade cooperation agreement, which includes helping them establish a local church of the Alien Gods. ”
Seeing that there were no objections or inquiries from the crowd, Dunn continued: "So now there is a task, in the afternoon from two days, there will be a commissioner from Beckland, who has come to Tingen to inspect the location of the church, so we are going to send someone to receive each other, who do you think is more appropriate?" ”
Everyone looked at each other a few times, and they didn't really want to do such a task except Klein, after all, if they wanted to inspect the location of the church, they would definitely have to run around Mantingen.
"Then Klein and Leonard! You go with me. Dunn said.
Everyone saw that the captain seemed to have finished speaking, but no one was in a hurry to leave, and after waiting for a while, Dunn seemed to remember something, "By the way, I forgot to say one thing, the name of the other church's church has been decided, the intellectual church." ”
Everyone waited for another moment: "There is one more thing, the church and the intellectual church are now in an alliance relationship, if necessary, you can go to the intellectual church for help, and the same is true for the other party." ”
Dunn waited for a moment and asked, "Why aren't you leaving?" ”
Then everyone left satisfied.
Crane returned home and began to prepare for the two days to receive the personnel sent by the Intellectual Church, and he communicated with his family first to make sure that he would come back later in two days or even not come back, and the family would not be worried.
Only then did he begin to think about playing the role of a soothsayer.
Knowing the secret of the method of playing from the notes of Russell the Great, he naturally wanted to quickly use this method to strengthen himself.
In the end, he thought of going to the soothsayer's club, but after a trip, Crane gave up for the time being, because the cost of joining was too high for him.
Fortunately, Klein soon found a reasonable way to reimburse himself from Old Neil......
