Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1379 The order network shines into reality
Since the promulgation and implementation of the Great Xia Law Code, Xia Duo has often inspected the power of order in the territory, but the development of the territory is changing with each passing day, and the order and people's hearts are changing every moment.

Reflected in the cycle of the power of order, more and more new powers of order are generated and connected with each other, forming a tighter and tighter network of order.

From [Land Grant System Power of Order], which completed the cycle of order at the earliest, to [Great Xia Lingmin Ethics Power of Order], which later incorporated new natural concept doctrines (doctrines and theoretical knowledge are different) into the system.

Afterwards, as the Daxia Law Code was continuously reflected in the lives of the people, and became popular among the people, it was accepted by all the people, and the power of order with various branch decrees as the main body completed the cycle.

Such as [Land Law - Power of Order], [Public Security Management - Power of Order], [Business Tax - Power of Order], etc.

At this moment, although a considerable part of the various powers of order perceived by Xia Duo has not completed the cycle of order, driven by the power of order that has completed the cycle, there is already a tendency to automatically cycle!

You must know that each of the previous power of order cycles was promoted by Xia Duo's manual casting, and it was not enough to cast spells once or twice. He had to wait for the power of order to grow and cast spells successively during this period.

Now, the power of order has a tendency to circulate automatically. In addition to making Xia Duo lament that there will be much less work in the future, what he cares more about is——

What will happen when all the forces of order dominated by him have completed the cycle and are integrated!
The cycle of power of order is an indispensable link in the ceremony of ascension to the gods, but the ascension person only needs to build a cycle of power of order to receive the original force guided by the power of faith and collide with the divine fire.

As he is doing now, completing the cycle of all the controllable forces of order is no longer within the scope of the ascension ceremony.

In other words, it is no longer within the scope of the original Ascension Ceremony provided by the elves.

Like Princess Shia, didn’t she also improve the Ascension Ceremony? Xia Duo has no way of knowing the specific effect, but judging from the performance of the princess after Ascension, it should not be worse than the original version of the elf.

Maybe the elves just provided a minimal version, and any changes they make now will make the ritual result better.

It's just that not everyone wants to be promoted in this way, like Xia Duo himself.

The Ascension Ceremony seems to be repeatable, but the power of order involved in it is different every time. The person who ascended the God first occupied it first and succeeded in ascension, and it is almost impossible for the latter to choose this again.

In a sense, the path of the Ascension Ceremony will become narrower and narrower.

Although Xia Duo could complete the ascension to the gods before the competition has entered a feverish stage, this path destined to be enjoyed by only a few people does not have much practical help for his goal of creating a magical civilization.

On the contrary, it may be involved in the competition for ascending to the gods, and mess up the originally stable civilization order.

Therefore, at this stage, he is just preparing for the Ascension Ceremony like President Jenna of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, but whether he will do it in the end is still more doubtful, and it can be regarded as a way out.

It is estimated that this is also the thinking of many great arcanists. Although it is not necessary to choose this way to upgrade, it is always right to prepare first.

Xia Duo is more inclined to follow the objective laws to complete the technological leap, and thus come into contact with the realm of gods. Faith may also exist objectively and have certain objective laws, but faith is still too illusory for him now.

It's like psionic magic depends on the heart. Since it exists, there must be an inevitability of its existence, but this inevitability cannot be understood or accepted by him in a short time.

The objective laws he understands and accepts depend on the objective reality that the world itself can be observed and studied.

Whether it is the magic of this world or the technology on the earth, there is always a way of "observation-summarization-application-extension".

If one day the power of faith can be quantitatively observed and studied, then Xia Duo will naturally recognize the objectivity of the power of faith and accept various applications related to it.

This is actually similar to science and fortune-telling on Earth. No matter how clever fortune-telling is, as long as it cannot be proved and covered by the existing scientific system, Xia Duo will not recognize its objectivity, or even its authenticity.

Of course, various applications related to it will not be accepted.

This may seem narrow, but it is already the most rational approach. After all, on Earth, science is already one of the most effective ways to understand the world. It would be too unreasonable not to believe in science and believe in metaphysics.

In this magical world, magic in a narrow sense refers to spells, but here in Xia Duo, he has expanded magic to "a verifiable knowledge system within a certain range", which is the definition of science on Earth.

If a theory, a spell, or an experiment cannot be repeated, then Xia Duo will not incorporate it into his magic system.

The power of faith is precisely in it.

For the time being, he can only vaguely perceive it, or indirectly influence it by manipulating people's hearts, and cannot directly interfere or experiment.

Of course, this does not mean that he will not study it. On the contrary, he is very interested in an existence outside the existing knowledge system.

It's just that there are priorities, and maybe he can do it when the time is right, but he can't devote most of his energy to it.

Otherwise, there are so many unknowns in this world, one hammer here, one hammer there, half-hearted, when will things be accomplished!
Xia Duo has always insisted on his own ideas and has great expectations for collective wisdom. As long as civilization develops well and the technological tree climbs high, many unknowns can be answered. Even if everyone becomes a god, it is not false!

As for now, he keeps perceiving the order network that has been connected with all aspects of the territory, and a thought in his mind becomes clearer.

He had been thinking before, why can't he get power directly from the cycle of order, and he has to have such an ability after ascending to the gods?
After knowing that Atwood really perceives the holy power with only a fabricated "new natural concept", Xia Duo has more thoughts about directly obtaining power from the cycle of order.

As an order cycle that can inherit the force in the ascension ceremony, it must have some kind of power. If a certain guiding mechanism can be found, it may be able to give birth to an existence similar to the holy power, or simply the holy power!
Of course, a more suitable name might be "Force of Order" itself!
A virtual power that originally only existed in concept has been realized into reality, how similar is the birth process of the so-called "new natural holy power"!

However, how can the power of order be reflected in reality?
