Chapter 17: Let There Be Light
Astral Plane.
The Stargazing Tower, once majestic and regarded as a symbol of the authority of the Holy Demon Ancestral Court, has been reduced to ruins.
In the starry sky above the ruins, the battle between the gods and the suzerain has not yet been decided.
Due to an unexpected accident, I had to stop for a while.
The eyes of both sides focused on the center of the bloodline galaxy.
The area of the black hole, which was originally huge, is shrinking dramatically.
At the same time, countless ancestral spirits erupted from the black hole and re-entered the embrace of the bloodline galaxy.
Seeing this spectacular scene, the gods and sect masters fell silent, unable to hide their horror in their hearts.
"It seems that Alan really did it." The corners of Yuan Tianguang's lips rose slightly, "Wipe out the heresy law with your own hands and release all the imprisoned souls." ”
Turning to look at the incarnation of the gods on the opposite side, he asked indifferently:
"The wall of heresy has been broken, and you have lost."
"We lost, but you're not a winner."
The god of wind incarnated Nora, and replied in Cynthia's tone:
"Allen is a man who lives only for his own ideals."
"Indeed, with more power than we can imagine, he succeeded in erasing the law of heresy, hanging the magic net on the wall of heresy, and gaining eternal immortality."
"However, what good will he do to your Holy Demon Ancestral Court by doing these things?"
"Didn't your plan to seal the gods also fail?"
"Fellow losers, what do you have to be proud of?"
"Alan said that he would not help each other, but when it comes to the critical moment, he will still be more or less biased towards old friends."
Luo Tianhua smiled slightly, raised his head and called out to the void.
"Little sister, welcome home!"
In the void, a hazy shadow appeared.
Under the gaze of the gods and sect masters, the petite and feminine girl in the black dress slowly descended.
Seeing that she is almost identical to Luo Tianhua's appearance, you can guess her identity without asking.
The "Lord of Death" Luo Tianye returned to his place.
The Holy Demon Ancestral Court now has nine sect masters in power, which just meets the conditions required for the ancestor to become a god.
On the side of the gods, except for Pamela, who is just a fun-watching person, they can't help but get nervous.
If the sect masters forcibly activated the god sealing ceremony, they might not be able to stop it.
However, unexpectedly, Luo Tianye did not return to his own position as the sect chairman, but instead stood with Pamela, looking like an outsider.
"Little sister...... What do you mean? ”
Luo Tianhua lost a smile on his face.
"Sister, listen to my advice and give up the plan to become a god."
Luo Tianye said with a serious face.
"The so-called 'one true God' is just an unrealistic delusion."
"Instead of sacrificing one's own will for this delusion that is doomed to be impossible, it is better to do something more practical."
"The ancestor asked me to pass a message to you - stop fighting, wait for him to come back, have something to say, and have something to discuss."
"Which ancestor?" Luo Tianhua asked.
"Gluttonous ancestor, the most powerful existence in the world today."
Luo Tianye's words revealed reverence from the heart.
……
The gods and suzerains didn't wait long.
After settling his relatives and friends in the Warlock World, Eren returned to the Stargazing Tower and demanded a truce between the two sides and signed a magic web agreement.
This agreement is based on the following facts:
The Bloodline Galaxy, the Wall of Heresy, and the Demon Web are now integrated and inseparable.
Under this premise, anyone of sound mind can connect to the magic net, learn magic, and cast spells with the help of the magic net.
This created a new spell-casting class called "Mage", breaking the monopoly of warlocks and priests on supernatural power.
Through meditation, the mage establishes a spiritual connection with the magic web and learns knowledge equivalent to his own level.
At the same time, you should also voluntarily upload the new knowledge you have learned.
Sharing and communication is the core spirit of the Mowang protocol.
The Magic Net Protocol did not deliberately suppress warlocks and priests.
The Warlock's meditation and practice is as always.
The souls of the unbelievers, after death, enter the bloodline galaxy and become ancestral spirits.
The memories of the ancestral spirits are uploaded to the magic network synchronously and are open and shared.
The kingdom of the gods must be channeled into the magic net.
The prayers of believers must reach the gods through the magic net.
On the contrary, the revelations sent down by the gods and the divine magic given by the gods must also pass through the magic net before they can be fed back to the believers.
Believers in the gods return to the kingdom of God after death.
At the same time, the memories of believers must be uploaded to the magic net and shared openly.
Both mages and warlocks can learn and comprehend the knowledge contained in their memories through their own ways of practice.
The gods need the souls of believers.
What the Demon Web and the Bloodline Galaxy need is not the soul, but the experience and knowledge that the soul has accumulated over the course of its life.
The soul and memory are unbound, and the fundamental contradiction of whether the soul belongs to the kingdom of God or the bloodline galaxy is resolved.
……
After listening to Allen's explanation, the gods and the sect masters all fell into a long thought, carefully considering the consequences of signing this agreement.
Luo Tianhua and Yuan Tianguang took the lead in expressing their support for the Magic Net Agreement, which was the original agreement between the two sisters and brothers and Allen.
Luo Tianye and Shiva, of course, have no objections.
The other five sect masters also felt that the plan proposed by Allen was the least bad choice at the moment.
The ancient gods, as early as the moment Eren erased the law of heresy, realized that the fate awaited him.
The laws of heresy that the gods had created together in their heyday cannot be modified even by themselves.
Eren wiped it out on his own, showing that the power of the two sides was no longer at the same level.
There was no choice but to accept the conditions offered by Allen.
What's more, the conditions offered by Allen are quite generous.
The gods can at least keep their foundations, and there will be a chance for revival in the future.
In the end, Pamela was the only one who had not yet spoken.
"Alan! Why don't you write the Demon Web Agreement directly on the Wall of Heresy and force everyone to abide by it, otherwise the soul will be glued to the wall once and for all, isn't it better? ”
In the face of her questioning, Alan smiled calmly.
"In the world, there is no such thing as a good thing once and for all!"
"If the Magic Web Protocol can balance the interests of all parties and bring benefits to the public, there is no need to intimidate the heresy trial, and people will spontaneously defend it."
"If, one day, this agreement becomes anachronistic, becomes a stereotype that hinders the progress of civilization, even if it is written on the wall, people will spontaneously rise up and overturn it and create a new order that is more in line with the needs of reality, as I do today!"
"That's right!"
Pamela was the first to be convinced of a person.
"You kid, you really deserve to be the man in my picture!"
……
Time flies, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
The magic net agreement signed by the gods and the sect masters has been effectively implemented.
The Magic Net has gained wide recognition, trained a large number of mages, and is active in various industries.
The world of warlocks has entered a new era of civilization.
To be precise, the name "Warlock World" has become anachronistic.
Today, the main force driving the progress of the times is no longer the ancient warlock family, the bloodline gatekeeper, but the more creative and enterprising mages who are mostly from the civilian class.
As the creator of the magic web, Eren has won the sincere worship of countless beneficiaries.
Although he had no intention of becoming a god, he was ignited by the people who spontaneously worshiped him, and they all worked together to exalt the throne of God and become the first true god of the new era.
The Father of the Devil's Web!
Mage Ancestor!
God of Truth!
These are the honorific titles that believers place on Allen.
On the day he became a true god, Eren left the crystal wall system where the warlock world was located alone.
In the midst of a vast void, unfold the ancestral court and begin to create a new world by itself.
Redefining life and death, near and far, high and low.
Define years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds, beginning and ending.
In the darkness of the void, He said, "Let there be light." ”
And so there was light in the world.
