Chapter 26 The Holy Name of the God of Steam (Happy New Year's Eve)
Augustus put down his right hand that covered his eyes and said solemnly: "Hear! When our prayers come, we have specially given us divine arts, which allow us to spread the glory and the preaching Word."
"This is the best praise for our devotion!"
As he spoke loudly, the milky white light rolled into golden sunshine, rushing in all directions like waves, flooding Harold, Milna and other dwarves.
Harold suddenly felt that his strength had increased again, his emotions became excited, full of desire to fight, and he was not afraid of despair, pain, etc.!
This is the feeling of being a real warrior!
This is the "war wave" of level five magic, and it is also the limit that Augustus can reach at present!
At this time, Augustus's inner worry and sense of danger completely disappeared. The great God of Steam is not unable to give divine arts, just because he prefers the mystery of steam and machinery. So he smiled and solemnly said: "I listened to the teachings of the Lord and understood that steam and machinery contain the deepest and greatest secrets in the world. If we can master them, we can have the power beyond divine arts, just like an eternal blazing yang-type weapon."
"The Lord tells us that divine art is just a temporary weapon used to protect ourselves at a certain stage in our journey. It is not the real thing that depends on survival and preaching. After this stage, we must naturally put down our divine art, devote our whole body and mind to steam and machinery, discover their mysteries, and use our own efforts to gain the true power that we can master. In this way, we can build the Atlantis on the earth."
Harold, Milna led the rest of the core dwarves and whispered: "Great God of Steam, you love us as if you hold supreme authority.
I hope to rebuild a brilliant steam civilization under your blessing!”
Augustus hesitated for a moment, but after thinking of the sacred and vast aura and the magical magic, he still said solemnly: "You pray in front of the holy objects in turn, and the Lord will give you the divine arts that believe in the pious."
What?
real?
Ecstasy hit the hearts of the dwarves such as Harold and Milna again. After witnessing the scene just now, they thought that this was the Godly grace that the Lord gave specifically to the Great Elder. Those who were a little shaken in their hearts, such as themselves, would have to wait for a longer time to regain the magic with actual actions.
Unexpectedly, the great God of Steam was ready to give himself and others divine skills without any grudges!
“You are the embodiment of virtue, teaching us the truth of forgiveness.”
Harold and other dwarves covered their eyes with their right hands again and prayed with great sincerity, only to feel that they were empty in spirit, their faith became more and more pious, and tears of joy flowed out of the corners of their eyes.
Then, Harold came to the silver-white "nuclear bomb" holy relic and silently recited the content of "Mechanical Revelation".
The noise around him disappeared, and the dwarves such as Milna were focused and extremely expectant to watch Harold Lord, will the grace be delivered?
Suddenly, a bright and brilliant light shot out from the silver-white holy object. It shone on Harold, as if it had put a holiness on him, making him look like the "angel" of the God of Truth.
Really given magic!
Mirna and other dwarves were both excited and excited. They witnessed the miracle and the Lord’s favor to the dwarves!
Harold's breath grew rapidly and stopped slowly when he reached the bishop's level.
Seeing this, the Great Elder Augustus quietly breathed a sigh of relief. According to the standards of the divine field, he was a level five bishop, while Harold was a level three, and he was still the leader of the Night Dwarf clan and the Archbishop of the Steam Church!
Afterwards, the dwarves came to the holy relics one by one in order to pray, but not everyone could obtain the seeds of faith and grow a heart of faith. Only seven or eight dwarves including Mirna were given divine art. Similarly, only Mirna and Quiggins became third-level bishops like Harold.
But at this time, the other dwarves had no complaints, because the ones who were given divine art were the most devout believers, that is, those who became leaders by relying on "piousness" - after becoming leaders, even if they are not so pious, they must show a very pious appearance, otherwise how can they control their subordinates?
After the ceremony, Archbishop Augustus stood back before the holy relics and said extremely serious: "The magic of the divine is inconsistent with our goal of building Atlantis on the ground. Therefore, the Lord told us not to show off this matter, otherwise it would be easy to get lost in power, and warned us to keep this secret and only quietly show it in front of devout believers. Whoever told the outsider, or if he did not need to perform the magic of the outsider in front of the outsider, would be reclaimed and become a sinner!"
He actually didn't quite understand why the great God of Steam had to descend such an oracle, but after experiencing the miracle and obtaining the magic technique, he did not dare to question it.
Harold, Milna, Quiggins and other dwarves dared not have any questions, and they all covered their eyes with their right hands and said:
"You will follow your teachings, you are the master of life and death, the king of kings, and the god of God."
The milky white light surrounded by silver-white "holy objects" gradually dimmed. If there are great wizards or legendary levels here, you can see a vast universe faintly revealing from the light, and the stars inside emit light of different colors.
In the atomic universe.
Lucien floated on a relatively stable silicon element planet, in front of him an altar with complex magic patterns, and a statue of a bald dwarf was placed on the altar.
The statue is all made of hand-polished metal parts, with a layer of cold and mysterious luster. The head is painted with a mysterious pattern of dark green, as if it is constantly emitting electromagnetic waves in the heart.
The sacred and solemn milky white light continues to flow from the void! The sky lingers on this statue, and they keep flying in and out, gradually merge into it, forming a unique feeling of vastness and transcendence.
And the light spots that have not yet merged are like little angels flying. If you listen attentively, you can hear different prayers, praises and praises, which create an ethereal and holy surrounding you.
The power of divine art flows out from the statue and feeds back into the altar, and draws magic power from the altar to maintain it. In this situation, divine art and magic are unprecedentedly harmonious!
"It's a pity that the heart of faith is in conflict with the cognitive world. Otherwise, we can also use magical magic without relying on items to assist." There were four people floating around Lucien, namely Douglas, Fernando, Hathaway and Natasha. Douglas was the one who made this sigh.
Although the magician can also build a cognitive world based on part of his faith, just like Artier. When the cognitive world collapses and is damaged, he does not explode his head, but is swallowed by the holy light, but does not mean that he can cast his magic unless he completely transforms the cognitive world and solidifies it into a heart of faith. By the same token, except for the superposition gods, no clergy can build a cognitive world and perform magic with the heart of faith.
Lucien nodded slightly: "The two are not even the same foundation. One is built on the essence and mystery of the world and mainly based on one's own cognition, and the other is obtained by gradually consistent ideas and beliefs, and will lose part of the self. This experiment I hope to explore various details of the secret of the pseudo-god, unlike before, there are only rough guesses and no substantial progress."
This is the path of gods improved by Thanos, Viken and others. It is very different from the "Dark Dragon God" that was captured before, which rely on primitive methods and can better reflect the essence.
"Existence is the truth. Whether we want to admit it or not, or whether we want to go this path, the existence of the gods itself shows a certain aspect of the essence of the world. Therefore, we cannot escape, and we must face it. A truly firm arcane will not deviate from their beliefs because of studying the secrets of the gods. Lucien, you can carry out research in this area. It is very valuable." Douglas has a very broad mind.
Lucien smiled and said, "I hope that Mr. Speaker, teacher, and mother-in-law Hathaway, you can keep it a secret for me. If we concealed the God-like method before, I am worried that this matter will make other members of the highest review team doubt my intentions and will announce it after we have some research results."
He was first filing the matter with several great arcane masters.
"I don't know what you are thinking." Fernando glared at Lucien. In his opinion, this reason was too far-fetched, but he did not tear Lucien's station and planned to see his true thoughts in the future.
Hathaway took out a magic notebook and studied the past legacy of the altar and special divine objects (statues): "You can only give ten dwarf divine art?"
"The power of faith accumulated in the past has disappeared a lot because it has no support for the power of the statue. At present, the power of the statue cannot support the divine magic gifts of more than five people, nor can it reach the middle level. Fortunately, when I made the statue, I exchanged several middle and high-level divine art objects from the Church of Truth, the Church of Earth Mother God, and the Church of the Craftsman God, so that the statue itself has strong divine power, which can achieve the current effect, but in the short term, this is also the limit." Lucien explained in detail.
After Douglas, Fernando, and Hathaway collected first-hand information and left, Natasha looked at the dwarf statue curiously: "I never knew that your aesthetic taste had such a serious problem. I actually like bald heads and painted patterns..."
As for the dwarf, she could understand that this was the steam god targeting the dwarf clan.
Lucien laughed and said, "The name of this dwarf statue is 'Yuri,'"
"Yuri...What's the connection?" Natasha asked in confusion.
Tall tower.
Samantha sat alone in her exclusive study, quietly watching the air in front of her, as if there were sounds of low or crying echoing in her ears.
"Maybe there is a problem with the determinism here, and some processes are probabilistic and irreversible..."
"Determinism must die..."
Over the past period of time, these words have lingered her like nightmares, making her confused, confused and frustrated. The most terrifying thing is that some of the experiments currently completed seem to illustrate the uncertainty and probability of microscopic particles.
She raised her hand, held her forehead, and whispered: "Arcanism needs to be alive, so determinism must die?"
The voice was full of bitterness and resistance.
Dongdongdongdongdongdong, she heard the sound of rapid footsteps outside, and a series of footsteps, so she opened the door and saw a tower magician gathering in a room.
"What's wrong?" Samantha saw her good friend Rachel.
Rachel's expression was confused and painful: "Haven committed suicide..."
"Suicide?" Samantha asked in surprise, suicide? It's not about exploding the head and dying, but about suicide?
There are currently no important enough experiments to verify uncertainty and probability, and all the conceived thinking experiments cannot refute them. Therefore, even if Hawen is a firm supporter of determinism, it will not be affected by the stability of the cognitive world.
This also leaves enough buffering time for myself and others.
"Maybe it was the development of arcane that made him desperate..." Rachel said in a low voice.
Chapter completed!
