"...When **** sat at a long table with his twelve disciples, he already knew that someone had a ghost. He knew it was Judas. But he still sat with him, sharing bread and pouring wine. ."

"It's not kindness, or generosity, or compassion."

"This is faith... Believing that destiny will make a fair decision. Believing that sacrifice will wash away sin. Believers in Him can be evil in addition to the good..."

By the shore of Linzhong Lake in the early morning, an Atlas student in a yellow robe was holding a Bible and preaching loudly on the shore, proclaiming the glory of the Lord to the fish people.

The passing red robes looked at him with weird eyes.

Zheng Qing is also one of them. He was worried that the yellow robe would be stoned to death by the violent fishmen in the lake. Because several pairs of dark yellow, fierce eyes have appeared on the lake.

But Xiao Xiao made him not worry so much.

"Most murlocs don’t think so profoundly," Xiao Xiao flipped through the school newspaper in his hand and explained smoothly: "Jesus, kindness, compassion, sin, faith... I doubt a few murlocs can understand the above. The meaning of a few words."

"The fish people have sacrifices, and they also have faith." Zheng Qing did not agree with the doctor's point of view.

"That's not faith, it's just worship. Ancient totem worship." Xiao Xiao focused on doing two things. While reading newspaper articles, he still had room to engage in a certain degree of arduous dialogue with Zheng Qing: "True faith is divided into There are two kinds, one is internal, which is the firmness of self-consciousness; the other is external, which is based on the firmness of others. The worship of fish people is not firm and is easily shaken. Therefore, their sacrifices cannot be called true beliefs. "

"With the steadfastness of others?" Zheng Qing repeated Xiao Xiao's words, raised his head, glanced at the sky, and suddenly a thought came to his mind: "If there is no faith, then there is no way for the outside gods to come?"

Xiao Xiao's eyes finally moved away from the newspaper.

"It can be understood that way." Through the smooth spectacles, his gaze seemed to see through what Zheng Qing was thinking: "The essence of external faith is'coordinates.' The gods use coordinates to stabilize their existence; believers use coordinates, Anchor your own spirit... The true gods are high-dimensional existences that transcend time and space, and reality cannot withstand their coming. They are unknowable and unpredictable. Only relying on the guidance of faith can they cast a shadow in this world and show themselves The presence."

"Sounds very troublesome."

"Why do you think those high-dimensional existences have to lower their projections to low-dimensional existences?"

"Perhaps they need the power of faith?" Zheng Qing guessed.

"Those who regard faith as a resource will eventually be poisoned by faith. There is no such stupid **** now." Xiao Xiao sneered: "They lower the projection. There are two situations. One is pure compassion, like The pity of the rich for the poor; the other, of interest... They regard everything that happens in the low-dimensional world as their spiritual food-for example, when we read cartoons, do we have a sense of substitution? That is actually one A projection behavior. The projection of the three-dimensional world to the two-dimensional world."

Zheng Qing shrugged.

"When you say that, we feel like we are very powerful." He thought of Mr. Ah Q inexplicably.

"It's true." Xiao Xiao helped his glasses: "Mr. Karl Strauss once said,'The most interesting life is not a high-dimensional person who transcends everything, but an invincible existence in a low-dimensional. High-dimensional ones destroy low-dimensional worlds, and they can also roll around and fall into other low-dimensional worlds'..."

Carl Strauss is the author of the book "The Philosophy of Magic", because this is the only textbook compiled by a non-teaching professor, Zheng Qing was impressed by his name.

But he didn't know what Xiao Xiao just said.

This is normal.

Xiao Xiao concluded: "...So, just like when we find a cockroach at home, it means that there are a dozen or even dozens, hundreds of them hiding in places you can’t see. The coming of the gods into this world means that his followers have made many secret sacrifices and summons."

Zheng Qing thought of the juggler who was invaded by the external **** on the streets of the North District, and thought of Satogua who had descended in the small world of the secret realm, and the thought in his mind became stronger and stronger.

"In other words, if no one is calling, they won't come, right." He asked softly.

"Theoretically, this is the case." Xiao Xiao nodded.

"Do you think that if we change our angle and follow the followers of Soni Gulasi, will we be able to find Lin Guo's black goat faster?"

"Trigeminal Sword has an independent department that specializes in'hunting' those cultists. As far as I know, their annual performance is the bottom of the entire Trigeminal Sword." Xiao Xiao expressed his opinion politely: "You are a crime. The new hunting team, we cannot be more professional than them."

"This is a new idea." Zheng Qing insisted.

"Yes, it is indeed a new idea." Xiao Xiao said perfunctorily and raised the newspaper in his hand: "It's just that compared with this new idea, I think this matter is more worthy of our attention..."

"What's the matter?" Zheng Qing finally shifted his attention away from his new thoughts.

"The school newspaper reprinted several articles from the Beta Town Post and Ms. Dodo, as well as comments... and some articles of the school newspaper himself." Xiao Xiao pointed out a few places where the footer was folded. Zheng Qing:

"For example, this ~www.readwn.com~In the section of'Ancient and Modern Talks', it usually publishes some stories about the ancient corpses of the mountain village, the Nanyang Witch Gu, the Loch Ness monster, the ghost in the library...but Today, it uses a large amount of space to publish the "Guardian of the Moon Mirror." It is an ancient existence that lives in the underground cave system of the Goat Grove area of ​​Great Britain and is worshiped by an organization calling itself the "Black Goat Esoteric". According to the article, it is speculated. , The so-called'Month Mirror Guardian' is an incarnation of Nicholas."

"For another example, in the current affairs comment section, the commentators talked about the negative impact of the worship of evil gods on Atlas Academy, especially emphasizing that those outside gods in the depths of the starry sky will affect the wizard's choice on the'path', turning them into Family members. Such accusations are rare. Especially the commentator from Alpha Academy..."

"There is also this article from the Beta Town Post reprinted in the school newspaper. It says,'According to reliable information, there have been several small-scale gatherings for the worship of evil gods in Beta Town.' There is news that some believers tried to attract them. The impact of the ‘owner of the ‘owner’ is obvious. There are a large number of students who love goat’s milk in the school. ‘Some students have lost their pets’. The First University is indifferent to this’...

"And this, reprinted from an article on "Ms. Dodo", the old tune is repeated on the harm of'the black goat of the forest that breeds thousands of offspring' to pregnant women... It is more likely to cause witches to give birth to magicians... and many more."
