Ascension journey - 392. Chapter 387 Thoughts on the Laws of the World and the Development of Civilization

In fact, after getting some information in the forum, Cheng Bin probably understood why Morrigan, the general god of productivity, was only at a middle level among the gods.

In addition to the inadequate level of the godhead as a rigid basic condition, the subtle contradiction between the teaching content of Morrigan’s church of gods and the world environment is also a major reason.

Because things like clergy don’t just churn out a single concept, it must be something specific, detailed, and specific to certain phenomena and processes that the gods personally carve out a little bit by himself.

Only such a priesthood can form a bridge from the spirit world to the material world, and allow the power and will of the spirit to be transmitted.

Even the gods who follow the rules and the way of runes are no exception. Just like the god of fire elements, they must interpret the “fire” priesthood by themselves, and incorporate all the elemental changes involving fire in the world into the “fire” rune rules. Without this step that is specific to the change of elements, it would be impossible to bring things in contact with fire into the scope of interference out of thin air.

In other words, if someone in the world discovers a brand-new fire phenomenon, the god of fire element who has not registered it in the priesthood system cannot directly perceive and interfere with this thing, and the runes related to fire cannot be produced. That kind of phenomenon.

Of course, the fire element god’s research on flame is naturally ahead of the entire world, and this kind of thing is absolutely impossible under normal circumstances.

The same is true of Morrigan, the god of forging and melting pots. The core of his god is refined to describe the path of transforming nature and improving this transforming ability. However, when it comes to practical matters, it is a series of specific to believers. Guidance of words and deeds, and integration of the technological tree on productivity progress.

The problem lies here.

Through the previous tour and the information about the city of dwarves sent by Lacey, Cheng Bin has a certain understanding of the technological level of this city.

So he noticed-this dwarven city full of metal machinery encountered the same obstacles to the development of the Elf Kingdom.

According to the scientific cognition spirit, it is found that the rules of the world are hierarchical, or that researchers can always find deeper truths to eliminate old theories.

Just like the leap from classical physics to quantum physics in the inner domain after going deep into the bottom layer, the deep rules must be closer to reality and can interpret all the operating processes of the surface rules. The progress of productivity and the climb of science and technology are bound to pursue deeper and more real. The rules to dig.

But in this world, there are insurmountable obstacles ahead of this road——

The exploration of material properties is the first level, the cognition of elemental changes is the second level, the study of magic and runes is the third level, the soul and real name mining is the fourth level, and the fifth level is deeper and more real. Exploration directly involves the existence of the gods.

Although the technological level of the Dwarf City and the Elf Kingdom is quite different, most researchers only focus on the research and utilization of the third layer of magic and rune laws. Only a few high-end personnel are involved in the fourth layer of the legendary field. Research.

On the one hand, the research on the law involving real names is too idealistic and difficult to generalize. On the other hand, it is also because the risks are somewhat unpredictable if you go deeper.

When Cheng Bin was on the plane of the Elf Kingdom, he cracked and created the old tree of the magic transformation war comparable to the legendary species. After conducting the black dragon transformation experiment on this plane, he was concerned about how to transform a life to promote it to the legendary state. There have been a lot of belly cases.

The creation of a legendary super-species of the whole clan is not an unachievable subject for Cheng Bin.

In theory, only such a legendary civilization has the foundation and the ability to continue to explore the laws of the world below the fourth level, to analyze and study the phenomena and things that are spawned by the laws of this level-gods.

But would the gods be willing to see the birth of such a civilization? Would you like to see a group of people drag them off the altar for anatomical study? Are you willing to lose your superior position and allow countless lives to reach the realm of God to divide their power?

The answer is of course no.

In some of the ancient information that Morrigan disclosed and he collected, there has been a powerful civilization that touched this level in the history of this world. It was formed by a group of great arcanists who broke the mountain at will and turned over to create a floating city. Master Kingdom.

The magic net is the horrible product of the analysis and research of the power of the gods based on the laws of the fifth level of the world.

Unfortunately, the underlying laws of this world determine that any existence with excessive logical complexity will be transformed into a life with a real name, which means that the most powerful force is often directly controlled by a certain will, and a few people can control and surpass the majority. Human power.

Gathering crowds to gather wisdom to crush individuals, this simple truth of more than less, is rarely reflected in this world that is not equal except for the authority of the real name.

The magic net that gathered all the power of the mage kingdom naturally produced its own consciousness. Although the process of its production did not exceed the expectations of the great arcanists, they confidently control the consciousness of the magic net attracted the hostility and hostility of the gods. put one’s oar in.

In the realm of souls and real names, the power of the gods is beyond imagination. Therefore, following a war of destruction that spread to countless planes, the consciousness of the magic net independently promoted to the god of magic, and the civilization of the wizard has evolved from the long river of history. Completely annihilated.

The magic net is the lighthouse in front of the road to explore the world, and it is also the shocking chicken used to terrorize monkeys.

Cheng Bin, who was not ready to challenge the gods head-on, temporarily stopped promoting the development of the elven civilization after realizing this problem, and the dwarf god Morrigan…

From his doctrine of vagueness in key places and focusing only on describing the laws of the first three levels of the world, it can be seen that he himself is well aware of this issue.

Therefore, this god of productivity does not truly represent the most advanced productivity, and naturally he cannot exert his true power.

Unless the dwarves imitate the red dragon, which represents the most advanced productivity, to transform their bodies and souls, and begin to march toward the heights of the former mage kingdom, they can only wander around the laws of the world around the third floor, limited by intelligence and wisdom. Obstacles to promotion, technological progress and expansion will be difficult.

“From this perspective, Morrigan deliberately came into contact with me, an outsider, and his motivation was not so simple…”

After analyzing and sorting out the information obtained from Morrigan, and thinking for a while, Cheng Bin slightly adjusted the next action plan if he had some enlightenment.

Looking back at the slightly gloomy hall in the passage, Cheng Bin pondered to himself: “From the perspective of the history of changes in the content of the priesthood and the attitude of the first communication…Does Morrigan want to be a god anymore? The hint of is very meaningful…”

After regaining his gaze, Cheng Bin sent a message to Lacey, and then sank his mind into the depths of his soul.

An incomparably bright crystal, as if the number of slices could extend infinitely with the observation, appeared in Cheng Bin’s mind-that was the godhead he had obtained from the demigod vampire Reinhardt.

The level of the godhead that can reach the standard of weak divine power is not high, but this does not affect its essence.

Cheng Bin took a look at the thing that touched the world’s laws the deepest in his current cognition, or the most “mysterious” thing, and then activated the destiny soul magic to analyze the operation of his own thinking in a detailed analysis and separate them one by one. Clear thinking instructions are injected into the Godhead through the real name interface.

Cheng Bin has already developed a lot of regular godheads, and began to follow these thought instructions, allowing Cheng Bin, who has not yet achieved a true god, to pry out some powers at the true god level.

According to the power of destiny operation template obtained by Morrigan, Cheng Bin silently began to twist his thinking mode. After the state of mind matched a certain standard, he followed the feedback from the Godhead to transform the power of Lacey’s faith. The little bit of supernatural power that had been released was released.

In an instant, there was a flower in front of Cheng Bin’s eyes, as if the whole person had risen to another level along the invisible passage, and his perception was suddenly filled with an endless river.

This river of light, which is made up of countless discrete points of light, is the river of destiny in this world.

This huge river with countless branches and contexts and constantly changing its shape contains endless power and information. Under tremendous mental pressure, Cheng Bin followed the instinct given by the Godhead and glanced at a certain point of the river, and then Falling back to reality because of the exhaustion of divine power.

Looking at the volcano shaft and blinking, Cheng Bin gradually brought back the spirit of the runaway. After regaining his main consciousness, he moved his mind, and immediately demolished the temporarily constructed spiritual template, and he was also mentally exhausted. And the pain is wiped out.

“The River of Destiny, in terms of form, is very similar to the World Line, but after seeing what the World Line really looks like, I can be sure that this thing and the World Line are not the same thing… Is it a certain degree of simulation?”

Raising his hand and pressing his forehead lightly, Cheng Bin suppressed the body and magical reaction caused by the sudden change of the soul and slowly adjusted it. At the same time, he recalled what he had spied in the river of fate.

“There is no destiny-type priest directly and brutally hard. The information that can be obtained is quite limited, but the harvest is still good… I didn’t expect that there are many guys who make ideas on me, an outsider.”

Cheng Bin, who had peeked at his own destiny, shook his head helplessly-he only realized after a glance that he was too eye-catching in the river of fate.

Fortunately, he obtained some useful god-level knowledge and skills from Morrigan. After analyzing and integrating, Cheng Bin worked out a way to cover his own destiny, and just fixed it with magical magic.

This kind of magic can’t hide Cheng Bin’s whirlpool-like fate turbulence, but it can make the turbulence more chaotic as a whole, so that other targets can’t observe and locate his general state from a macro perspective, and it can barely cover it up.

To make a simple analogy, it turns out that other people who spy on the fate of the typhoon can still look at the main body of the typhoon’s outer circle and estimate the situation of the typhoon eye with its center relative to the fixed position. Now Cheng Bin has made this eye drift randomly. Can fail.

At the same time, Cheng Bin took the time to deduce the future changes that his next actions will cause, and confirmed whether there are any problems with the future plans.

In general, although there are some twists and turns, it does not affect the achievement of Cheng Bin’s goals.

“Although I am a little interested in the gods who came to Morrigan because of me, it is really better to find the God of Knowledge to discuss the issue of the priesthood. The doctrine of that god…the same as Morrigan, some deliberately omitted the vague past. It feels like.”

Cheng Bin, who pondered for a while, tilted his head and sent a farewell message to the drunk Morrigan avatar in the hall in the language of the soul, and then the figure disappeared from the outcropping platform in an instant——

After spending some time distracted to study the defense system of the Dwarf City, and watching the process of Morrigan opening the portal and hammering him again, Cheng Bin was able to easily enter and exit the normal city defense system by means of space transfer.

……

In a corner of a commercial street in the city of dwarves, a sharp-eared elf with a delicate doll-like life sitting on his shoulders suddenly shut up and stopped the argument with the clerk.

“Are you going…” Lacey retracted her gaze to look up at the huge idol in Shangcheng District, and poured all the coins on the counter of the store with a clatter, and took it away from the dwarf who was bargaining with herself before and now with a blank look. The metal creation that he fancy.

Curiously examining the weird weapon with a handle and a long tube in her hand, Lacey turned and walked out of the shop.

There is a red dragon that can squeeze out any gem or precious metal at will. The financial problem is not a problem at all. For Lacey, bargaining is just satisfying a sense of novelty.

After all, the economic system of the Elf Kingdom is not as rich as the humans and dwarves on this plane, and it does not even have the general equivalent of currency-only some high-end products use magic crystals as a reference for measuring value, and it is brought by the red dragon. Things before the change.

While walking and disassembling and reorganizing the metal creation called the gun, Lacey muttered to Ivey on his shoulder: “This kind of weapon called the musket is very interesting. Use a tough barrel to condense the power generated by the explosion. , Pushing the projectile to fly out at high speed to attack…”

Ivey took a look at the various parts floating in Lacey’s hand, then turned away and snorted disdainfully: “Those dwarves just treat this as a low-end toy, so they just sell it on the street, any one. Magic can crush this simple thing.”

“That’s right.” Lacey reassembled the three palm-length muskets with both hands, and began to infiltrate the muskets with the line of soul integrated after he was promoted to Legend.

While using the Soul Thread to release various spell-like effects to distort the material of the firearm in subtle ways, Lacey engraved various runes and magic patterns on the firearm. At the same time, she said to Ivey: “What I think is interesting is the design of this weapon. Thoughts, think about it…

“You don’t need magic power, you don’t need to know any magic knowledge, you can launch an attack that is not weaker than basic magic with just a move of your finger. It’s also very promising to extend this line of thinking to in-depth research, right?”

Ivey raised his hand and patted Lacey’s cheek, and shook his head to her: “Even legendary magic can give birth to magical life. If you go deeper, your gun will become more and more sophisticated. At that time, it might be produced by itself. Magic power, you might as well think more about how to make people without magic power have magic power and magic…

“Furthermore, even if the in-depth research has retained the crude explosive structure of the current gun, it will not cause problems on its own, but the simple things based on the nature of the material and elemental changes will not have the ability to resist the interference of magic and real names at all…

“It doesn’t matter what effect a simple physical attack can play. It is normal to blast the chamber directly against someone with magical power. A simple field-type magic can abolish all similar weapons.”

Lacey, who was transforming the gun at hand, nodded silently, and then smiled: “However, if the magic pattern inscription problem is solved, this design should be a little better than your short bow. I can also try this. The design idea transforms the line of soul into other types of attacks, at least you can try it.”

Just as Ivey was stroking the mini-shortbow on his waist with a faceless expression, Cheng Bin suddenly appeared beside Lacey who walked to the corner of no one.

The silver-haired elf glanced at Lacey’s toy, smiled and said to her: “The dwarf’s regular exploration of the material elements is indeed farther than focusing on magic and rune elves… let’s go. Let’s take a look at the plane of the world tree trunk…

“If things go well, I will directly become a god over there. I have some new knowledge about gods. You can accept it. At that time, many places will need the cooperation of your only believer.”

Is this going to become a god? Is it really good to say so casually? That’s a god…

Lacey opened her mouth and was about to say something, but the words in her throat were blocked by the large amount of information poured in her mind along the faith connection…
