Chapter 1039： Fire thief

Kamal is a very pure scholar. Compared with the complex forces between modern human kingdoms and foreign kingdoms, he is better at analyzing data in the laboratory that makes ordinary people feel dizzy at a glance-but Even so, after hearing Gao Wen's words, he realized that these tests not only have academic significance, but also political considerations.

Cecil is embarking on a new kind of international relations, an order that encompasses all mortal species across all races on the continent, and the starting point of this order is that mortal races are facing such "divine disasters." The world’s disasters have a consistent appeal for interests, and there is a chain of life and death that advances and retreats together. At this stage, this is more of a political call made by Gao Wen-but if someone can prove in the laboratory all the mortal races The soul has a certain "synchrony" in front of the gods, which can prove that the fluctuations of the gods can affect all intelligent creatures in the world regardless of race and time and space distance. Then this concept of "community" is more than a political call. .

To be honest, Carmel is not interested in politics.

But he is still happy to help Gawain to establish the new order that the latter hopes-as a rebel, that is the bright future he and his compatriots have imagined thousands of years ago.

The mortals are united to face the world crisis together, and survive tenaciously in the divine disaster and demonic wave.

"I understand," the ancient archmagister bent down slightly, making a crisp sound when the rune armor pieces collided. "We will complete these tests as soon as possible and produce detailed and reliable evidence."

Gawain nodded, and after a little thought, he said, "Also, prepare for me. I'm going to the courtyard of the Rebellious Fortress."

"You want to see Amone?" Veronica reacted immediately, "Do you need my company?"

"No, I'll do it myself this time," Gawain shook his head, "Just talk to him-God of War has fallen, I'm curious if he can perceive anything, or what he thinks about it."

"Understood," Veronica replied, lowering her head, "then I will check the portal."

...

A shattered world that is deeper and darker than the shadow world, located in the courtyard of the rebellious fortress of the shadow world, the holy white deer, which is like a hill, lies quietly between the floating gravel and the criss-crossed ancient relics as usual. The radiance undulates around him like a tulle, without any change for thousands of years.

This almost stagnant "dead silence" lasted for an unknown amount of time, and Amone suddenly opened his eyes.

Those eyes, like crystals of light cast, looked towards the entrance of the courtyard, and a special "human" was walking towards him. The **** of the past was silent for a few seconds, and only after the other person approached did he use his mind to stop the voice. Spread out: "Gawain Cecil... long time no see. Welcome to my little courtyard-I can't get up and entertain if I feel inconvenient to move."

"Your sense of humor is the same as before," Gawain said with a smile, and came to the right distance in front of Ammon, "Is everything all right here?"

Amorne’s voice sounded directly in his mind: "Except for the inability to walk, everything is okay-quiet, peaceful, without being disturbed by the endless surging mortal thoughts. This is a good thing. s vacation."

"That's good," Gawain smiled, and then straight to the point, "Then I will explain what I came for directly-the God of War has fallen, what happened a few days ago."

Amone fell silent for a moment.

After a full minute, the former **** broke the silence with a sigh of voice: "Is that right... It might be a good ending."

"Did you not feel it?" Gawain looked at each other curiously. "This incident caused a lot of movement. I think its influence is enough to penetrate the barriers of the shadow world and the shadow world."

"I did feel some fluctuations a few days ago, but I didn't expect it to be caused by the fall of the God of War... Although you told me that he was on the verge of losing control, and sooner or later there would be a battle between the mortal and the God of War, but said To be honest, I really didn't expect you to achieve this feat in this way," Amone said slowly, "Looking at you, this thing went well?"

"We paid a great price. Many people died and the consumption of resources was countless." Gawain shook his head. "I don't know if this is considered ‘smooth’."

"Ah, this has gone pretty smoothly, the emperor of mankind, you have defeated a **** head-on," Amone's tone seemed to have a hint of heartfelt approval, "Proud, this is something to be proud of. But I guess you came to me today not just to tell me about it, right?"

"Indeed, there is another thing," Gawain nodded. "After the fall of God of War, we found the remains of his body...no longer cause spiritual pollution to mortals."

Amone seemed to be stunned for two seconds, and then he spoke with a hint of surprise: "You mean the fragments of the God of War have lost their spiritual pollution?"

"No, it's not that those fragments have lost their pollution, but that mortals are no longer affected by them," Gao Wen immediately corrected. "The fragments of God of War have not changed in nature. It is the mortals themselves that have changed. The essential difference."

Amone fell silent again. He seemed to be thinking seriously, and he spoke again after half a minute: "You mean, through a real act of'killing the gods', mortals are now completely free from the influence of the **** of war, not only Gained the freedom to use divine arts, words and deeds, and even spiritual resistance against the relics of the God of War-and this'effect' happened not only to the soldiers who participated in the war, but to everyone?"

"Yes, although we can't test everyone in the world, we speculate that everyone has undergone this change, and it may even include races other than humans."

"...I want to hear your more detailed views," Ammon looked at Gawain, his tone becoming more serious than ever, "What have you discovered, what your speculation is, and you are ready to verify What-if you don't mind, please tell me all."

This is exactly what Gao Wen came here for, so he readily agreed to Amorn’s request. In the next few dozen minutes, he told the other party in detail about the various phenomena that the technicians have found in the laboratory, and how The information collected by various news channels, as well as the guesses of Carmel and others.

Throughout the whole story, Ammon appeared to be extraordinarily quiet and didn't even cut a word. It was not until Gawain finally finished speaking that he let out a long and meaningful sigh.

After a few seconds, the **** of the past broke the silence: "It seems that there is a small loophole in my original plan, and there is a missing link for mortals to "hands it". Then... you are planning to take advantage of my absence. The Fa resisted, and organized people to come in and'kill' me again?"

"Ahem..." Gawain suddenly coughed. For a moment he couldn't be sure whether Amone's words came from the sincerity or the unique sense of humor of the former god. "Of course it won't be like this. ,You think too much."

Then he paused and explained what he had explained to Amber in the laboratory before to Amoen again. In order to make the other party feel at ease, he also made a special emphasis at the end: "... overall In other words, our main purpose is only to enable the mortal race to survive in this world. Even if we restart the rebellious plan, we actually have no subjective hostility to the gods-as long as we choose, we will not take extremes. s method."

Having said this, he glanced at Ammon who was listening quietly, and after a little hesitation, he said one thing he had been thinking about recently: "In fact, I think there must be something else between mortals and gods. There is a way to go—the third way besides the antagonism of life and death and complete isolation. I once considered this issue, but now I believe it more and more."

"Too ideal and optimistic," Amone finally said, "but you don't seem to have this idea out of blind optimism or some naive idea."

"I have my ideas," Gawain looked at the "God of Nature" with a serious expression, "I firmly believe in one thing-since the existence of gods is the result of the operation of the natural laws of this world, then this'natural laws' It can be grasped and controlled. It’s only time. Now we can’t find the third way. It’s just because we don’t know enough about the mystery of time. But if we give up exploring because we can’t find a way for a while, then we are essentially There is no difference between going up and going to the gods when they encounter difficulties."

"Fearless..." Amone sighed, "You reminded me of the first people who walked out of the cave, those who lifted branches to get fire from lightning... The fearless fire thief should have such qualities. But I have to remind you-more people will die before the first flame burns than the lucky ones who successfully steal the fire."

Gao Wen nodded solemnly: "Thank you, I will remember your reminder."

"Since you have reached this point, let me provide some more suggestions," Amone said suddenly after a moment of silence, "I think you came today mainly to listen to my ‘suggestion’, right?"

Gao Wen's expression immediately became serious: "Listen carefully."

"I don't know how you plan to'control' the laws of the gods' movement, but one thing I hope you can keep in mind-no matter which gods they are, they are firmly limited by the beginning of their birth. The'code' is limited by the initial'shaping' of them by mortal thoughts. Even when they are on the verge of madness, even when they are already mad, they actually act in accordance with these'initial dogmas'.

"On this basis, I have two suggestions: First, you should be cautious in what you do, but you can also be bold. As long as you strictly comply with the most critical parts of those'codes,' you don't actually have to worry about losing control of the gods. ——Mortals in the world think that gods are irritable, and they will be punished if they make a difference, but in fact...no matter'angry' or'joy', the'emotions' of the gods themselves cannot actually dominate their own actions. , They can only act according to the law.

"No matter how angry the gods are, they cannot punish a believer who has never violated the original dogma, and no matter how happy the gods are, they cannot bless a mortal who does not believe in themselves. In a sense, the gods above are actually just a group of involuntary poor people. It's just a worm.

"Secondly, I suggest that you and your scholars study the oldest and most primitive religious texts, summarize a god’s'laws' from the source of faith, and sort out the changing process of these laws according to historical development. It's not a straightforward method of applying modern classics that have undergone numerous repairs and polishes.

"Many times, modern classics and the most primitive religious texts seem to depict the same thing, but due to subtle adjustments intentionally or unintentionally by the commentators, their corresponding doctrines have actually undergone subtle deviations-these subtle deviations. If you control it incorrectly, big problems will occur."

Gawain clenched his fist subconsciously-this was the first time that Amoen made such a specific "suggestion" to him, even involving actual operation!

Obviously, the **** suffered by this "God of Nature" has once again been'loose', and this change is most likely related to the battle on the front line of Winterhold.

His trip did not come in vain.

After keeping in mind Amone's reminder, he let out a long sigh of relief, with a sincere smile on his face: "Thank you very much for your suggestions-I will definitely put them into practice."

Then he took out the mechanical watch he was carrying and took a look at the time on it, then took a half step back: "I have been here for too long, and it's time to leave. Finally, thank you again."

"You don't need to thank you. After all, it is difficult for me to meet someone as interesting as you." Amoen's tone seemed to have a smile, "If you really want to express gratitude, I have something. I want to ask you for help."

"Please help me?" Gao Wen was taken aback, his eyes fell involuntarily on the criss-crossing shackles around him, "Say it first, if you want me to help you relieve these..."

"Don't worry, I know my situation-I haven't been completely'harmless'. Your worries are very normal, so I don't ask you to help me lift the bondage," Amorn took the initiative without waiting for Gao Wen to finish. He said, "It's just... it's really boring to lie here for such a long time. I want to find some fun."

"Fun?" Gawain blinked. "What do you want?"

"I heard that a new thing called the magic net terminal appeared in the human world, which is similar to the communication network of the Gondor Empire, but it is more interesting." I don't know if it is an illusion, Amon hesitated a little bit in his tone. , But he continued, "...I am a little curious about it."

Give me a whole .jpg.

Gao Wen: "..."

After a moment of surprise, he reacted: "The magic net terminal relies on the magic net to operate, and I am not sure if it can operate stably after crossing the portal of the shadow world..."

"I think it can," said Armon. "The ancient portal is actually more stable than you think. As early as the Gondor era, mortal wizards passed very complex magical messages through the portal-theoretically , It can allow lossless transmission of magic power."

Gao Wen: "..."

How could this former **** even think about this?
