"The Garden of Eden does not exist in this world. After God expelled mankind from the Garden of Eden, it was once used as God's residence until God established heaven." The fallen angel did not chat with Chen Mo, but wholeheartedly said to him
He explained the history and situation of the Garden of Eden: "After the establishment of Paradise, the Garden of Eden has always been a part of Paradise. The souls of the most devout fanatics among mankind will be led there to live there after their death, and will be transformed into new angels."
Hearing what the fallen angel said, Chen Mo couldn't help but make a joke: "I didn't expect that the legend was actually true. With pious faith, one can actually go to heaven and live in the Garden of Eden."
Regarding Chen Mo's joke, the fallen angel seemed to have aroused some bad memories. His face turned ugly for a moment before he glanced at him and said, "If you feel that you have become a person without self, you will only shout Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Jesus every day.
If it's a good thing to praise God's achievements and do obedience to Him, then it's really good to be an angel."
The irony of the fallen angel did not make Chen Mo think anything. The gods created heaven or hell to accommodate the souls of believers, not to reward devout believers so that they can enjoy endless happiness after death, or to punish them during life.
crime.
The fundamental meaning of the existence of heaven and hell is only to collect the souls of those believers and turn them into petitioners or even less self-like things to supplement the consumption of the Kingdom of God and serve as military force for war.
Just as necromancers like Chen Mo would collect radiant souls to create advanced necromantic units, gods would do the same thing.
The carrying capacity of ordinary people's souls is limited. Even if gods or wizards have countless ways to turn a mortal into a superman, their souls are not strong and pure enough to accommodate divinity and become more powerful divine creatures.
After death, the souls of devout believers ascend to heaven, become new angels, and live happily in heaven and the Garden of Eden. This seems really beautiful at first glance.
But in fact, the soul of the dead person has been cleansed, and he will lose most of his memory, leaving only his fanatical belief in gods.
He seems to be living a happy life every day, but in fact he is just providing faith to the gods all the time.
Rather than being a lucky person living in heaven, it is better to say that it is a human battery of the gods.
By the way, the faith that a soul can provide is not unlimited, nor can the kingdom of gods, nor can it provide unlimited support for the souls of believers.
After these souls are transformed into petitioners or so-called angels, because of their more pure and fanatical beliefs, they will continue to consume the essence of their own souls to transform them into the power of faith for the gods to absorb.
When the essence of a soul is completely transformed into the power of faith, only a little bit of self-memory will be left. If these remnants are outside the world, they will have a chance to return to the endless river of Styx and wait for the next reincarnation.
Opportunity.
But in the kingdom of God, these things will be cleaned up or simply dissipated like the residue left after a candle burns out.
This is why there have always been legends about devout believers ascending to heaven and becoming saints and angels, but there is no fundamental reason for the population explosion in heaven.
Of course, even if a soul burns its own essence and transforms its faith in the most fervent state, it can last for hundreds of years.
Gu Xi
For the new god, this means that as long as his group of believers can be maintained and he continues to produce devout believers, he can gain a large amount of faith in a short period of time, quickly become powerful, and stabilize his position as a god.
So when any religion begins to spread, it will tell you how good it will be in the next life or the life after death. As long as you believe in it religiously in this life, you will definitely enjoy blessings in the next life.
But no one knows the true nature and outcome of ascending to heaven, because no god will tell a mortal about these things.
They will even deliberately create some angels with human appearances and retain more social memories to communicate with the world and show their holiness, so that more mortals will think how beautiful heaven is.
Mortals will never have the opportunity to understand and glimpse all this. When they are qualified to know such things, they have become vested interests and become new gods.
Unless they give up their own immortal and eternal life and existence, and give up the power of faith to maintain their own existence, no god will give up such a useful and cheap source of power.
"You and I both know what the essence of faith is, so there is no need to talk about it. Let's go back to the Garden of Eden. Why didn't God take it with him when he left this world?" Chen Mo asked the fallen angel.
If Eden had ever been included in God's kingdom, it would have been easy for God to take Eden with him before leaving.
But according to the fallen angel, it seems that he did not take away the Garden of Eden.
The fallen angel nodded and replied affirmatively: "Yes, God did not take away the Garden of Eden, but kept it, together with some angels, to maintain his faith in this world."
Having said this, the fallen angel looked at Chen Mo with deep meaning and said to him seriously: "I think you should know why he did this."
"Use faith as an anchor to fix yourself and the Kingdom of God, and finally return to this world." Chen Mo stated God's purpose very directly. This was not at all for Chen Mo, who had already seen Anubis and the others and the God of Desolation.
Hard to guess.
The fallen angel seemed not surprised that Chen Mo could guess the answer. He raised his eyebrows and nodded in affirmation: "Yes, the Garden of Eden is the anchor for God to return to this world, but he did not expect that the development of human technology would waver.
Human beings have such faith in God that the Garden of Eden did not accumulate enough power of faith to allow him to return with heaven."
"I understand when you say that. The Garden of Eden is not in this world, but is anchored outside the world by God?" Chen Mo based on what the fallen angel said and combined it with his own experience from "Multiverse Universal"
With a little analysis, you can guess where the Garden of Eden is based on the knowledge acquired from the Encyclopedia of Necromancy: "Because only in this way, when the Garden of Eden has enough power of faith, can it be used as a pulling force to connect him and his Kingdom of God.
Drag them back together."
"Yes, this is the truth about the Garden of Eden." The fallen angel nodded and looked at Chen Mo expectantly: "So do you accept this deal? I will use the whereabouts of the Garden of Eden in exchange for your freedom."
"Sounds like a very good deal indeed. I only need to let you go, and I can get good things like the Garden of Eden, as well as the power of faith accumulated in the Garden of Eden and the souls of those devout believers." Chen Mo groped his chin.
, with a heart-beating expression on his face, but what came out of his mouth was completely the opposite: "But, forgive me for refusing."
