Chapter 17: Polymerization and Separation
Zeus knew what Ryan meant.
Out of instinct, Hyperion's comatose personality will actively split before being assimilated, turning into fragments of divinity large and small, which is the 'survival' idea that comes from life.
But in the same way, when the overflowing source of the priesthood is divided and gradually falls silent, 'survival' is no longer a priority, and he will try to pursue 'wholeness' again.
If he was sober, he would naturally know that once he was 'whole' again, he would face the danger of being eroded by the source force, but driven by instinct, Hyperion would not care about this.
Therefore, in this case, the fragments of divinity of the ancient sun god will spontaneously attract each other. When a sufficient number of fragments of divinity are gathered in one place, then part of Hyperion's consciousness will briefly awaken.
As for what will happen then, only God knows, after all, part of the consciousness is not a complete consciousness, it is possible for him to have any emotion dominant at that time, and there is a high probability that reason will not prevail. But referring to his past character, it won't be anything peaceful anyway.
Of course, even if he wakes up, even if it is only partially conscious, it is destined to be difficult to last. After all, when enough of them are gathered, the outflow of the [Sun] Origin will gradually become active again from silence, but not as quickly as it was when it was 'complete'. When the time comes, if he doesn't want to be erased, this ancient sun god still has to take the initiative to disintegrate himself.
Unless, he can find a way to maintain his sanity and resist the assimilation of the source force.
What an eternal torture. I've heard that you were the first to define 'death'. Now, in the face of the immortal god who has offended you in the past, you have also given him eternal torment and suffering. ”
After a moment of silence, Zeus put away what he was holding.
In any case, it's really valuable. The power of those sparse divine fragments before was not strong, and it was difficult for the strongest to reach the realm of true gods, but these were different.
The main body of the priesthood that Ryan took away probably had the 'quantity' of medium divine power and the 'quality' of powerful divine power, and these three more important divisions barely entered the realm of true gods, and their essence was also very high.
A whale falls, all things are born, although Zeus has never heard of this statement, but at this moment he also has a similar feeling. A powerful Titan Lord God finally split into these in front of him. Even those fragments of divinity that fell on the earth before would inevitably come into contact with life and be absorbed and controlled by them.
Compared to these subjects, those fragments of division may be resisted and assimilated by living beings by will, and can be barely controlled.
From now on, the traces of Hyperion will spread all over the world, and countless legends about him will be circulated in the mortal world, but I am afraid that he himself will never return.
After all, destroying is much easier than repairing. If you want to adjust the 'transformed' priesthood back to the way it was, I'm afraid that only the world can do it.
"Okay, I've read what I should have seen, I've said what I should say, and my gift should be quite satisfying, so I won't keep you."
With a wave of his hand, Ryan signaled that the God-King should leave.
He left mortals with two easy paths to godhood, and this is the first. The reason why he had to take this step in front of Zeus was actually to prevent the existence of humans walking along this path in later generations, only to be directly erased by unknown gods under jealousy, and to delay his time in vain.
Now, the God-King has understood how this came about, and he will not cause trouble in the future.
"By the way, maybe in the future, when I have time, I will go to the earth for a walk, I think His Majesty the God King should have no opinion."
As if remembering something, Ryan said with a smile.
As he said, when the bronze human was born, even if it had not existed for a long time, he was ready to go and see it.
"Of course, any god has the qualifications to walk freely in the world."
Knowing that the ancient god in front of him was not really asking for his opinion, Zeus also agreed. It's hard to say if he got the answer he wanted, but he had seen so much today. He was going to go back and take a break, and then talk about the rest.
Through the invisible portal, the God-King left the fourth spiritual realm. However, looking at the back of the other party leaving, the goddess of the dark moon, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
"Your Highness, why don't you capture all the false gods in the outside world and end up like this sun."
"Huh?" Somewhat surprised, Ryan couldn't help asking, "Why do you think that?" ”
It's not a day or two that Lyanna can't look down on the gods of the outside world, but what she didn't expect is that she actually has a further idea now.
Destroying them all is a bit of a fanatic feeling.
"The false gods of the outside world are always so arrogant and ignorant, not only do evil beings like Hyperion dare to provoke you, but other false gods also have many evil deeds."
Raising her head, in the face of Ryan's inquiry, Lyanna's expression was serious.
"I think it's better to have fewer false gods like this."
“.”
"Hehe~ That's very difficult."
Smiled helplessly, Ryan didn't know what to say. In some ways, this most loyal subordinate will always have some strange thoughts.
"It can't be done, Lyanna. Not to mention that there are still primordial gods in the outside world, even if there is none, a state like Humperion is not created casually. ”
"The existence of Ikripps and the creation of the [Sun God Car] have given me a clearer understanding of the nature of the sun, but other priesthoods are still far behind."
Shaking his head, Ryan opened his right hand. The main body of the priesthood that had not been seen before was still there, but I don't know when it changed its form.
It is attached to a stone sword, forming a state that resembles an artifact, but is not exactly similar, and can be separated at any time.
And unlike the artifact, maybe it's because of the emotions of the ancient sun god before it disintegrates, or maybe it's because of the spontaneous distortion of the source of chaos, and from then on, anyone who has used it will be cursed by the 'Great Sun Scorching Body' after letting go of it.
There may have been some other after-effects, and if Ryan had predicted the results, he would have probably gotten the result, but he chose to leave a little mystery, and his spiritual instincts didn't warn him anyway
"Put it away, you don't need it yet."
"Only when enough divine fragments are born in the mortal world will they be qualified to bear this authority."
With some emotion, Ryan was just thinking about how to solve the immortal god once and for all, and although he didn't get a result, he also invented this special product in a flash of inspiration.
I don't know if it's a coincidence. The immortal nature of the gods, the divine power that is difficult to take away, and the will that is assimilated by chaos after contact with the source force, when they are combined, seem to give birth to a special product.
Something similar to the special power system he had heard of before coming to the world of Kaos.
"Sequences must be aggregated by those who are separated, and those who are aggregated must be separated, which is really a familiar saying."
"I'm almost forgetting, in a flash, tens of thousands of years have passed"
Sighing softly, Lyanna on the side took the stone sword and listened quietly. Ryan often said things she didn't understand, but maybe that was the Lord's vision.
After a while, my thoughts turned. Through the barrier between the spirit world and the outside world, Ryan looked out towards the Great Plains of Delphi.
It was not Zeus who left alone, nor the sleeping Mother Earth, but the golden apple orchard that Gaia had entrusted to the maids to take care of.
There are many flowers, and every plant has been watered by the [Vise of Life].
Some of them are the originators of a certain plant in the world, and more are the essence of a certain nymph. It's just that most of them are not allowed to stay in the orchards of Mother Earth and are driven out after birth.
Gaia connected this place to the earth before she slept, and without her permission, wanting to enter the orchard was like shaking the earth. But today, the maid who was granted permission to enter and exit by the Mother of the Earth walked into this forbidden forest with an outsider.
There, the serpent was spitting out letters, looking at the Nymph transformed by the oak tree.
