Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 The Protoss continued to explain, and it was the first time that there was clear information that the ruler was promoted by the righteous god.

　　 But this also brought more reverie to Jenkins, he already knew that righteous gods can create clones, for example, the **** of music is the clone of sages. So the purpose of the gods doing this is probably to fill the vacancy of the righteous gods after they are promoted. After all, not every righteous **** can find a successor that is very similar to the scope of his own priesthood.

This gave rise to a very interesting question. It is now the end of the Eighteenth Era. According to the tradition that there will be a ruler in each epoch, there must be a righteous **** to vacate his seat in this era, which means that there must be one. If a false **** is promoted to a true god, there will be a non-god being promoted to a false god...

　　 "So, is the purpose of the savior of the world becoming a **** in every epoch, is it to fill this vacancy?"

　　 he boldly guessed.

　　"Of course not, the savior becoming a **** is part of the rule, and has nothing to do with filling the vacancy.

It is no longer the original ancient era. The stability of the world's rules and the rise of order make it more difficult for non-gods to be promoted to Gods, and the savior may not succeed every time...Every era appears. Vacancies can be filled by the gods themselves, but in general, gods do not do this. The gods tend to find like-minded people among false gods. Therefore, when some believers of false gods are active in the material world, they have a good relationship with the churches of right gods. . "

　　 "Why not do this? Isn't it easier to do this?"

"It is not without cost to produce a clone by oneself. Moreover, using oneself to occupy one's original position will be spurned by the gods. This world needs new power, new roads, and someone who can create new orders and new ones. Rules, not standing still."

　　 Rakul calmly explained that this reflects the wisdom of the gods. Such a world is a promising world.

　　 Protoss continued:

"The mystery of this is not that I can explain it clearly. I am not a god. I only know that the gods will only make the clones inherit their position when they have to. Normally, the righteous gods produce clones just for creation. The new priesthood divides different paths, perfects the world order, bears the burden of eliminating more sins, and occupies a new number of days."

　　 Jenkins slowly nodded, and his understanding of the world's rules has made great progress.

　　 "Then apart from being a savior and being a **** by burdening sins...you know what I mean, is there a third way that can promote mortals to gods?"

　　 he asked again, further wanting to explore the secrets of God.

　　 "I am not a god, and I cannot know the secret of God."

　　Rakul repeated what was just now, and then said:

　　 "But according to the protoss observing the changes in the material world, there is indeed a third way. It's just that it's a god's secret and cannot be recorded by any means."

　　PS: The author Jun has returned to school and has been a bit busy lately, and may not be able to reply to interim posts and comments in time.

　　 Another: I ask for everything at the beginning of the month... I find that I can't ask for anything at the end of the month.

Chapter 1623 Chapter 1598

　　 "That's good, as long as there is a possibility."

　　 The question of the third way was asked by Jenkins for Alexia. The short lady has now been promoted to a demigod and has been promoted in an unusual way. Jenkins hopes to help her find the next step, rather than being stuck in the mortal stage like all demigods are currently.

　　 Protoss Rakul answered many questions from Jenkins, but she is not a god, and some things are really unknowable.

　　 "God of lies, there is one more thing to tell you. Do you remember the first time you came to the astral world?"

"of course I remember."

　　 This was the night when the [Twin Devil] event ended, Jenkins shuttled into [Shadow Kingdom] through the resonance of the objects and the stars, and used a bag of rice to exchange for a fragment of a stone monument from the boy and his father. Judging from the shape, it is a corner of the stele with only a few incomplete characters on it.

　　 "That is a corner of [Creation Slate]."

"what?"

Jenkins asked hesitantly. He had heard of this name. The dead demigod Constantine had searched for something with the same name in order to break the limit of life. When Jenkins strayed into the gem party for the first time, Constantine The husband really got the information from Miss Aberdeen. At that time, Jenkins was still speculating whether the so-called [Generation Slate] was something he copied daily. (Chapter 176)

"The creation slab, this is the vehicle for recording the first story of the world. It is more ancient than the Protoss. It has no power in itself, but it can only be divided and cannot be destroyed. If you want to find the secret of becoming a god, except for asking For other gods, the best way is to look at this slate."

　　 The fragment of the creation slab could not enter the material world, so it was deposited by Jenkins in the hands of the protoss. The protoss thanked Jenkins and regarded him as a friend, which proved its importance from the side.

　　 "Since there is no power, then why..."

"There is no power in itself, but the description on the slate has power. That is the oldest knowledge. It is the knowledge that mortals will be crazy at a glance. Countless evil beings try to obtain them, and the race that knows their existence, regards it as a gateway The ladder of the path of the gods. But careerists will never know what kind of disaster will be caused by misusing the knowledge of creation slate.

　　 The complete creation slab was initially kept by the protoss according to the decision of the gods. However, in the Third Age, the slate fell into the material world in an accident, which caused a turbulent year. The gods took the initiative to incarnate the saints and enter the material world in an attempt to obtain the slabs. The story that happened was more terrifying than any end of the era. (Note)

　　 After this, the God of Knowledge was born, and the slate was kept by the God of Knowledge. But in this turmoil, the stone slab broke into pieces and scattered in the material world and every corner outside the material world. This is the origin of the piece you got. If you want to delve into the secrets of slab fragments, it is best to do it in the form of a **** rather than a saint. "

　　 Jenkins now has a drop of divinity in his hands and can become a **** at any time. But he wasn't sure that just a corner of the creation slate would allow him to delve into ways to help Alexia.

　　 He didn't spend divine nature to interpret the idea of ​​the slate for the time being, and that slate was mostly useful for real gods. Preserving the divinity is to cope with the final day that is about to come. This is the top priority now.

　　 Thanks to the Protoss for the answer, Jenkins returned to the small hotel in the material world, and then wrote down the complete knowledge he obtained in his whisper tonight.

　　Because the two righteous gods I met this time have a considerable overlap of the priesthood, the knowledge gained this time is mostly related to the dark night and the starry sky.

　　 There are three complete ability acquisition rituals, namely [Impermanence of Destiny (Purple Destiny)] [Road of the Stars (Yellow Conjuration)] and [Hidden Moon Armor (Golden Magic)].

　　【Fate is impermanent】is not able to disturb fate, but interferes with divination. The gifter who possesses this ability will not be able to be fortune-telling himself at all. The ability and rituals to predict the future are also ineffective for the ability owner. This sounds like a side effect of [Unknown Road Ahead] that Jenkins has, so Jenkins is not interested in it.

[Star Road] is the ability evolved from the super-large ritual of ancient human sacrifices to the stars. Its function is to allow the power of the stars to bless itself at night, so that the spiritual and physical power can be temporarily improved, and the abilities and rituals related to the stars are enhanced. the power of. In other words, this is an auxiliary ability that can only be used at night, but the effect is very good.

　　【Hidden Moon Armor】Similar to 【Book's Blessing】, they are all magical abilities that provide shields for oneself or other targets. The strength of the Hidden Moon armor is determined by the completeness of the "Hidden Moon" that the user meditates in his heart. The "Hidden Moon" itself is completely invisible, so it cannot be configured and cannot be meditated. Therefore, only the true believers of [No Light Moon] can know the mystery. Although Jenkins can see some of the doorways through the end of the month, he should learn the magic of the sages [the blessing of books] instead of learning this ability. ] More cost-effective.

After 　　 was upgraded to level 6, he obtained 4 blank bubbles, three of which were occupied by [Sword Dance·Spinning] [Fear Halo] and [Simulation of Living Beings]. After he decided to return to Nolan for the remaining one, he learned [Book Blessing]. He had coveted this ability for a long time.

　　 "Meow~"

　　 The cat is urging Jenkins to turn off the lights and sleep, and knows that Jenkins is completely wishful thinking.

　　 Because I had to stop in the cities along the route at night, this trip lasted six days before it ended.

　　 The fifth day of the trip is also the fifth day of the starry sky and the moon of the long night. This day is Wednesday. At night, the train stops in the city of New Truman, which is also the city where the Cthulhu son was first discovered by the church.

Jenkins lived with his parents and family this time, but after the train stopped, he first went to greet Hathaway Britney, and after arriving at the mansion arranged for the royal family, he projected to see Alexia And Dolores, they are both tired of this boring journey.

　　 Finally, I went to Luen, met the little princess, and heard her talk about the recent situation in the Kingdom of Hampawo. Due to the departure of the king, the atmosphere in the city of Ruen has become a bit weird recently, and signs of military mobilization have also appeared around the capital. The big event Jenkins and Alexia foresee is about to occur. Jenkins assured the little princess that he would visit her every day, so she doesn't need to be nervous and worried, everything will be fine.

　　PS: This is a "year of turmoil" in tribute to the Dungeons and Dragons (dnd). In order to prevent the **** of slaughter and the son of Baal from being mentioned last time, some people say that the abyss is the master, so I make a special statement.

Chapter 1624 The first thousand five hundred and ninety-nine

　　 According to the itinerary, a group of people will be able to arrive at Nolan Railway Station tomorrow afternoon. Judging from the newspaper, Nolan has made sufficient preparations to welcome this group of people. At the same time, the Chessland delegation by boat to Nolan is also close to the destination. If nothing else, they will arrive in Nolan this week.

　　 Jenkins went to bed with a bit of excitement, thinking that tomorrow he would be able to return to Nolan, who was "a long absence". But just as he closed his eyes, he felt that there was an extra person in his room.

　　 Opened his eyes and got up from the bed, Mr. Augustus, wearing a black robe, was standing at the door of the closed room looking at him. Behind Mr. Augustus, the messenger of death, the door of the room was changed from [the door to the dead] back to the ordinary wooden door.

　　 Jenkins blinked, a smile appeared on his face:

"Oh, long time no see, Mr. Augustus. Please sit down quickly. Are you here to ask about the implementation of the will? That's okay. I have been paying attention to this matter, and the Church of the Sage is also helping. If you want to If you want a document, I can burn it for you when I return to Nolan...Sorry, there seems to be no such saying here. If you want to see specific documents, you can wait until you return to Nolan to find me."

　　Mr. Augustus is a friend of Jenkins. Because the family is the descendant of the ruler, he was summoned by [Ancient Reaper] after his death to become a character similar to "Evil Angel" and "Reaper". After the death of Mr. Augustus, the two met once. It was when Jenkins took the initiative to contact [Reaper's Cloak Fragment]. It has been about four months since then.

　　 But in any case, Jenkins regarded each other as his friend, not only because the other party left him a large inheritance, but also because the relationship between the two was very good before Mr. Augustus was alive.

　　 "Long time no see, Viscount Williams."

　　 The news of Mr. Augustus is very good, even the fact that Jenkins was promoted to Viscount.

　　 He smiled helplessly at Jenkins:

　　 "I'm sorry, this time I am not here to reminisce with you, but I still thank you for your dedication to help me execute the will. My decision was correct. This time, someone entrusted me to come and invite you to a place."

　　 He took off the hood on his head and revealed this face. Compared with his life, he appeared very white in the spiritual state, except that he looked no different from a living person.

　　 "Invite me? Who is it? Where to go?"

　　 Jenkins had put on slippers and left the bed. The cat lying next to the pillow bent his front legs back and straightened, stretched his waist and opened his mouth, yawned, and then followed Jenkins out of the bed.

　　 "A very noble being invites you."

　　 Mr. Augustus blinked and motioned to Jenkins to guess it himself.

　　 "He wants to invite you to a treacherous state, a specific treacherous state."

　　 "May I ask why this is?"

　　 Jenkins understood that it was probably the [Ancient Reaper] who had sent the invitation.

　　 "I don't know this, but I assure you that this trip to the treacherous world will not be dangerous, and I will be by your side the whole time, and I will send you back here when it is over."

　　 "That's it..."

　　 Jenkins hesitated.

"okay then."

　　 He nodded, he believed that the other party promised "no danger". If the master wants to be disadvantageous to him, he will not use this kind of fanfare to send people to see him.

　　 "Can I take my cat?"

　　 he asked, touching the sleepy cat on his shoulder.

"of course can."

　　 Mr. Augustus nodded, then turned sideways to the door, making a gesture of please. Under Jenkins' eyes, the ordinary door of the room has become an entrance to a treacherous realm that exudes endless white light.

　　 "Although it was known before that the deception is the small fragment that the masters split from their own world, this is the first time I have seen its formation process."

　　 He thought in his heart, looked down at his pajamas, and then asked to change his clothes before setting off.

　　 Falling from a high altitude, although his feet were steady when he landed on the ground, the dizziness still made Jenkins hold his head for a while before he came back. Looking around, Mr. Augustus was by his side.

　　 There is uneven ground under his feet, and the wreckage of the battlefield seems to be around him. The black clouds in the distance were almost connected to the ground, and there was a damp smell of wind and rain in the air, but there was still a smell of blood after careful sniffing.

　　 wisps of black smoke rose around, and from a distance, you could see corpses and broken weapons everywhere. At the limit of eyesight, you can even see a broken flag stuck on the hill and fluttering in the strong wind, but Jenkins can't see the pattern on the flag.

　　 In front of them is the ruins of a church, where it seems to have been ravaged by steam bombs and steam cannons in turn. The main body of the building has disappeared, and the ground can vaguely see the broken floor covered by rubbish. There are also a few stone pillars around the base protruding from the ground. Judging from the pattern, the former church should be extremely glorious.

　　 Not far away is a crooked statue with only half of the body left, and there is the location of the main hall of the church. The most complete preserved here, at least half of the wall stands behind the statue. The preaching platform in front of the idol was slanted on the ruins, piled with some benches.

　　 Surrounded by the broken benches, right in front of the idol, some of the collected branches set up a campfire. This is the only flame that provides light and heat in this treacherous world.

　　 There were three people lying around the campfire. Each of them was an army uniform that could not identify the camp, and they obviously belonged to different camps. Judging from the fabrics and styles of the clothes, the level of civilization in the background of the treacherous world should be slightly lower than that at the end of the eighteenth era, but it is obviously after the Industrial Revolution.

　　 "This time the rules of the deception are very simple."

　　 Mr. Augustus and Jenkins said as they walked from the darkness on the edge of the battlefield to the campfire in front of the idol, it seemed that he had acted as the rule-speaker of this deception:

　　"There are three wounded here, each of whom was seriously injured for different reasons. They come from different countries, came here for different reasons, and have their own different stories.

　　 can tell you that these three people belong to the ‘villain’ in the public’s perception in any way, and now you need to listen to their stories, choose the worst one from them, and kill him with your own hands. Because of the changes in the rules, as long as a reasonable choice can be accepted, there is no failure in this time...Of course, there are rewards for this time, which will please you, Jenkins. "

　　 It is normal to call "Jenkins" based on the relationship between the two.

Chapter 1625 Three Stories

　　 "Are the rules just that simple?"

　　 After listening to Mr. Augustus’s explanation, Jenkins wondered, he seldom believes in the good things of pie in the sky.

　　 "This is not simple. Judging the good and evil of human nature is itself the most difficult thing in the world, and it also determines the life and death of a person."

　　 Mr. Augustus replied that he just knew the rules, but he didn't know why the master invited Jenkins to do this.

"let me try."

　　 Insufficient information, Jenkins could not infer the cause and effect of this incident. He now has no reason to suddenly regret wanting to leave here, and there is no need to do so.

　　 So he observed the three wounded and decided to start with the person lying on the ground facing the idol.

　　 The three wounded were all men. The first to be questioned by Jenkins was the oldest looking person. His hair was already grey and his face showed an abnormal red color due to years of wind and sun. The location of his injury is temporarily unclear. He can only see blood oozing from his eyes, nose, and ears. He coughed violently and sprayed out red blood foam. From the sound of coughing, at least this person must have a problem with his lungs.

　　 "It's a curse, this war involves extraordinary people."

　　 Jenkins was sure in his heart, and then stretched out his hand to press on this person's chest, trying to heal him, but found it to be useless, the other person was like a stone without any resonance with the spirit of life.

　　 "They are not a living person, but a memory cut from history. You can understand that the rules of this treacherous situation prohibit treatment."

　　 Mr. Augustus explained behind him.

　　 "In other words, did these three people really exist in history?"

　　 "Yes. You should know that some deceptions are just fragments of the world, where outsiders confuse to make rules. Some deceptions are a repeat of history, and outsiders play an interpretive role in them."

　　Mr. Augustus must be here.

　　 "So in the original history, did anyone like me appear beside them?"

　　 Jenkins asked again, but Mr. Augustus did not answer this time. Jenkins then had his own thoughts, looked up at the broken and crooked idol, and then asked the man:

　　 "Why did you come here?"
