Idle game leads to another world
Chapter 598 Between Destiny (4)
No matter how nice the doctrine sounds, it only serves one purpose.
Help God to gain divine power.
Divine power does not come entirely from the prayers of believers. The key is how many believers will execute God's will.
Just like the god of war Tempus, if all his believers pray at home, Tempus will not only not become stronger, but will fall from the throne. If his believers fight everywhere or provoke wars, then even if there are only a small number of believers, Tempus can still gain divine power continuously.
Of course, this does not mean that the number of believers is not important. The larger the base number, the higher the probability of devout believers. The more devout believers there are, the more people will naturally execute God's will. Except for very few individual cases (such as Lady of the Night Shar and Mother of the Soul Pharasma), all gods hope that their believers are everywhere.
The same is true for the evil god, the Lord of Centipedes. If He was behind all this, then after the disappearance of the Demon King, the Lord of Centipedes should have jumped out immediately to gather the collapsed followers of the Demon King. Even if it has not become a mainstream belief at the plane level, it should have become a well-known religion.
What is the result?
The church of the Lord of Centipedes is a small church in the Demon Realm. Only killers, executioners or some gangs believe in Him. He is a rat in the gutter. The mainstream belief has nothing to do with Him.
The Lord of Centipedes is too humble to eat some leftovers after busying around.
And if the purpose is to attract followers and consider the mastermind behind the mystery of the disappearance of the Demon King, there are too many suspects.
A group of good gods including Lashanda, as well as neutral gods such as Helofer and Tempus, are all on the suspicious list, because they have all become mainstream religions, at least at the level of state religion.
But what about considering it from another perspective?
Suppose, the mastermind behind the scenes wants not believers, but the power of the Demon King?
The Demon King is a racial god. The advantage of a racial god is that as long as the race does not disappear, even if they do not believe in him, he will obtain a certain amount of divine power, which is equivalent to having a guaranteed bottom line.
For example, the dwarf god Moradin, the elf king Corellon, the spider goddess Rose, etc.
The disadvantage is that it is difficult for racial gods to expand their beliefs outward, and there are almost no believers from other races, unlike non-racial gods, who have believers of all races as long as they meet the requirements of the god.
It sounds good, having a guaranteed bottom line means a stable job, but on the other hand, once the stable job is taken away, the racial god who cannot expand outward will immediately fall from the throne.
According to the image just seen as a clue, the mastermind behind the scenes should have fooled the seven apostles closest to the Demon King, let them resist in the dark, and use rituals to cut off the connection between the Demon King and the mortal world.
When the four-nation coalition fought against Viola, they would use a shielding magic circle to block Li Chengxi's direct intervention. This is ironclad evidence!
After that, as long as he pushes from behind, the Demon King will be doomed.
This is why Rose hates her own daughter, Eilistraee, so much. Her attempt to get the drow back to the surface is equivalent to digging up Rose's roots. If she digs them up, Rose will definitely be gone.
Of course, it's easier said than done. In fact, if the Demon King had noticed anything during the whole process, it would be impossible to succeed.
Aerde felt that she was getting closer and closer to the truth. What she needed to figure out now was who was behind the scenes and how much of the poison left behind in the Demon Realm was left.
Nimia did not join in the conversation between Aerde and Zora. As a tiefling, she really had nothing to do with the affairs of the Demons.
While the two were discussing, Nimia stood by the deep pit and looked up and down.
"Professor, do you think the cup thrown into the pit in the video just now is still there?"
She was really afraid of being poor and actually cared about this question.
Aoerdai was also stunned when he heard this. Oh, yes, the cup might still be there. Even if the cup is gone, the pale green flame burning at the bottom of the pit in the video just now should leave some traces for reference.
So Aoerdai checked the darkness entrenched in the cave, then made a few gestures and shot a shining ball of light into the pit.
That is the Daylight spell.
The Daylight spell is not only equivalent to the advanced version of the Light Spell, which can illuminate a large area, but also dispel all magic or non-magical darkness whose spell level is not higher than that of the caster.
The light ball was shot down, and after a moment, the darkness began to collapse. After a few seconds, the darkness like smoke completely dissipated.
This pit is estimated to be three or four meters deep. It looks like an explosion pit blown out by something, not dug out. There are large pieces of white bones densely arranged at the bottom of the pit, which is enough to make people's scalps numb.
And the silver cup that Nimia cares about is right at the edge of the pit. Perhaps it was because it was not thrown into the center that it was not burned by the pale green flame.
Aoerdai took out the silver cup with the hand of the mage. When the translucent force field palm touched the bones, it felt like a very powdery and crispy cookie, which fell apart with a light touch, leaving a slippery discomfort on the hand.
The mage's hand has the characteristic of tactile sensation but no pain, which makes people feel uncomfortable for the first time...
Fortunately, the silver cup was indeed taken out, and under the detection of detection magic, it flashed with strong magic aura, and it was visually estimated to be a perfect magic item.
The whole silver cup has a handle on one side, and two pigeon egg-sized gems, one red and one blue, are inlaid on the front and back, and the gems are outlined with fine diamonds.
To this day, dark red, coagulated plasma can still be seen inside the cup. It is estimated that its last use was not to hold wine.
Orde just checked it briefly, nodded and said to Nimia:
"Thanks for your reminder, I will give you a large bonus when I go back."
The reason why she said this is because Orde knew this thing.
This is an element cup. The most basic ability is to instantly summon a large fire element and a large water element at level 40. Just like the Yangyan Sword, different manufacturers will add different functions, and the details need to be carefully identified.
Since entering the ruins, although there are many things that make people feel stupid, I am getting closer and closer to the truth, and I have also obtained two perfect magic items, both of which are very valuable for history and research.
This is because Orde had a high fever when she was a child and her nerves were burned, so there is no expression on her face. Otherwise, looking at her face now, I am afraid that she will smile like a husky.
The element cup was also stuffed into the magic bag, and it was kept for later identification. The three of them walked around the deep pit and opened another door opposite the room.
I continued walking along the corridor, and this time I turned around again, and a circular hall appeared in front of me.
I turned around and around, and I was actually back?
