Lin Qiye fell into silence.
"What? Don't you even know if you like someone?" Merlin raised his eyebrows slightly.
Lin Qiye looked in the direction of the room, thought for a long time, and took a deep breath:
"I like it, but..."
"Just what?"
"It's just that I'm not sure whether this kind of love comes from my true heart or... a false illusion." Lin Qiye stretched out his hand, pointed at his chest, and sighed helplessly.
"Before, she personally pierced my heart with Cupid's arrow of love."
“Cupid’s arrow of love?”
Merlin was stunned and looked at Lin Qiye's chest. He narrowed his eyes and looked at it carefully for a long time. His expression gradually became more subtle, "Well... I understand."
Merlin glanced at Lin Qiye with a half-smile, then turned around and walked towards the carriage, "Go and wake up the little girl. It's time for us to continue setting off."
…
Under the red moon, a silver carriage was speeding between the ruins. The heavy ruts pressed on the earth, leaving deep marks, like elegant arcs carved on the blood-colored earth, mysterious and hidden rhythms.
"Your Excellency Merlin, why are we back again?"
Lin Qiye looked at the familiar scenery outside the window and asked doubtfully.
Merlin, who was sitting opposite him, closed his eyes and said calmly, "Really?"
"Yes, I seem to have seen the building here just now..."
Merlin slowly opened his eyes, and the tired look on his eyebrows became more intense. He rubbed the corners of his eyes and said, "The buildings in Takamagahara are all similar. You must have seen it wrong."
Lin Qiye was stunned.
He was about to say something more when Merlin raised his fingertips slightly, and the silver carriage slowly stopped.
"Get out of the car, your gift is inside."
Merlin pointed out the window.
Lin Qiye turned around and looked. On the mountain peak not far away, a vermilion torii stood quietly on the mountainside. Behind it, a vague golden shadow loomed.
"What is that?" Lin Qiye squinted his eyes, as if he wanted to see the entirety of the giant shadow.
"You'll know when we get there."
Merlin smiled mysteriously, led Lin Qiye and two others out of the carriage, climbed up the white jade steps at the center of the mountain, and walked straight towards the torii gate on the mountainside.
This mountain peak should be the highest point in the entire Takamagahara. Lin Qiye walked all the way to the front of the vermilion torii gate, turned around and looked back. Under the bloody sky, the barren and broken land extended infinitely into the distance, near the end of the field of vision.
At that place, he could vaguely see a mountain of corpses piled up...
Vaguely, Lin Qiye could still hear waves of painful roars coming from the direction of the corpse mountain.
That is the deepest part of Takamagahara?
Lin Qiye stared in that direction for a moment, then withdrew his gaze and followed Merlin through the vermilion torii gate.
Only then did Lin Qiye see the full picture of the giant golden shadow.
This is a tall and magnificent golden temple. Although the corners are a little damaged, it is still the most complete building Lin Qiye has seen so far. The gilded roof exudes a sacred atmosphere under the red moon. The eaves of the temple are
There were several wind chimes hanging, making crisp sounds in the bloody breeze.
Merlin walked up to the temple and with a wave of his hand, the door of the temple opened automatically, revealing the vast space inside.
As soon as he entered the temple, Lin Qiye was stunned.
The interior space of this temple is much larger than it appears from the outside. A tall black dome hangs at the top, with stars twinkling above it, as if it is out of reach in the night sky.
In the empty hall, a silver mirror with a corner broken was quietly suspended in the air. Countless shining rivers of aurora flowed out of the mirror, intertwined with each other, and connected to the stars in the sky, like a dream.
These long rivers of aurora...
Lin Qiye seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
The palace whose ruins existed in the clouds and the mysterious futon appeared in his mind again.
At the "Human Circle" ruins in Japan, Lin Qiye followed the aurora river in the sky and found Baili Pangpang sitting at the end of the river. He clearly remembered that the futon under Baili Pangpang at that time was also
The same long river of aurora flows.
"What are these?" Lin Qiye pointed at the floating aurora river.
"It's faith." Merlin stepped forward and calmly shuttled through the intertwined aurora rivers. "It's the faith that has been continuously born in the 'Human Circle' for more than fifty years."
Lin Qiye froze on the spot.
The belief that the “human circle” was born?
His eyes followed the direction of Merlin's progress and landed on Yang's mirror suspended in the air, with the river of aurora flowing out continuously.
"So, that's..."
"The artifact used by Gao Tianyuan to carry the 'Human Circle', the Mirror."
Shock appeared on Lin Qiye's face. He walked to the mirror and looked at it carefully.
That "human circle" that perfectly replicates Japan's land and is home to tens of millions of people is actually right inside this small mirror?
"The mirror surface is divided into yin and yang. What we see now is its anode. Its cathode is under the Sea of ​​Japan, reflecting the entire Japan. This is also the true source of Takamagahara's 'human circle'."
Merlin continued to explain, "The purpose of the 'Human Circle' is to provide faith, and this temple is a building used to collect and store faith.
More than fifty years ago, after the turmoil in Gaotianyuan, the gods withered and the 'Human Circle' was completely abandoned, but the birth of faith was not interrupted. The power of faith generated from the 'Human Circle' over these fifty years has
Store it all here."
Merlin stretched out his hand and pointed at the shining stars above their heads.
"So that's it..." Lin Qiye was stunned for a while and asked in confusion, "What is the use of faith?"
"For gods, the power of faith has too many uses. The most critical point is the law of amplifying itself."
"The Law of Amplification?"
"After you become a god, your strength can also be divided into strong and weak. Relying on the law of amplification of the power of faith is the fastest shortcut for gods to improve their own strength. You don't need to spend a lot of time accumulating. As long as you have a large amount of faith, you can easily
Raise the power of your own laws to a terrifying level.
Among the many divine systems that currently exist in the world, most of the powerful gods who stand in the first echelon of their respective divine systems have only reached this point by relying on massive increases in faith.
