Chapter 695 The "Holy Name" of the God of Steam (Happy New Year's Eve)
Augustus put down his right hand covering his eyes and said solemnly: "The Lord heard our prayers and specially gave us magic, so that we can spread His glory and proclaim His word."
"This is the best compliment to our piety!"
As he spoke loudly, the milky white light all over his body rolled into golden sunlight, surging in all directions like waves, drowning out Harold, Myrna and other dwarves.
Harold suddenly felt that his strength had increased again, his emotions became high, he was full of desire to fight, and he was not afraid of despair, pain, etc.!
This is what it feels like to be a real warrior!
This is the fifth-level divine technique "War Tide", and it is also the limit that Augustus can reach at present!
At this time, Augustus's inner worries and sense of danger completely disappeared, and the great steam god was not unable to grant divine magic, just because he preferred the mysteries of steam and machinery, so he smiled and said solemnly: "I have listened to the Lord's teachings and understood that steam and machinery contain the deepest and greatest secrets of the whole world, and if we can master them, we can have power beyond divine magic, just like eternal sun-type weapons."
"The Lord tells us that magic is only a temporary weapon to protect ourselves at a certain stage in our journey, and it is by no means the real thing that we rely on to survive and proclaim His word.
Harold and Myrna led the rest of the core dwarves in a loud voice: "Great Steam God, you love us as you hold the supreme authority. May you rebuild a glorious steam civilization under your protection!"
Augustus hesitated for a moment, but after thinking of the divine and vast breath and the incomparable magic, he still said solemnly: "Pray in turn before the holy relics, and the Lord will grant the divine magic to those who believe in the pious among you."
What?
Real?
After witnessing the scene just now, they thought it was a divine grace specially sent by the Lord for the Great Elder, and believers who were a little shaken deep in their hearts had to wait a longer time to regain the magic with practical actions.
Unexpectedly, the great god of steam was actually ready to give himself and others divine techniques without any grudge!
"You are the embodiment of virtue and teach us the truth of forgiveness."
Harold and the other dwarves covered their eyes with their right hands again, praying extremely sincerely, only to feel that their spirit was ethereal, their faith became more and more religious, and tears of joy flowed out of the corners of their eyes.
Then, Harold came to the silver "nuclear bomb" relic and silently recited the contents of the "Mechanical Apocalypse".
The noisy sounds around him disappeared, and Myrna and the other dwarves looked at Harold intently and expectantly, would the Lord send divine grace?
Suddenly, a clear and brilliant light shot out from the silver-white holy relic again. It shone on Harold, as if it had put on a cloak of holiness, making him look like an "angel" of the Church of Truth.
It really gave me magic!
Myrna and the other dwarves were excited and excited, and they witnessed the miracle themselves, witnessing the Lord's favor on the dwarves!
Harold's aura grew rapidly, and it slowly stopped when he reached the bishop level.
Seeing this, Grand Elder Augustus quietly breathed a sigh of relief, according to the standards of the divine art realm, he was a level five bishop, while Harold was a level three, he was still the leader of the Night Dwarf clan, and he was still the archbishop of the Steam Church!
After that, the dwarves came to pray in front of the holy relics one by one in order, but not everyone was able to obtain the seeds of faith and grow a heart of faith, only Mirna and seven or eight other dwarves were given divine magic, and similarly, only Myrna and Quenkins became third-level bishops like Harold.
But at this time, the rest of the dwarves had no complaints, because those who were given divine magic were the most devout believers in normal times, that is, those who relied on "piety" to become leaders - after becoming a leader, even if they were not so religious, they had to show a very pious appearance, otherwise how could they control their subordinates.
At the end of the ceremony, Archbishop Augustus stood back in front of the relic and said very seriously: "The divine art contradicts our goal of building Atlantis on earth, so the Lord tells us not to show off this matter, otherwise it is easy to get lost in power.
He actually didn't quite understand why the great steam god sent such an oracle, but after experiencing the miracle and obtaining the divine technique, he did not dare to question anything about it.
Harold, Myrna, Quinns and other dwarves didn't dare to have any questions, and all covered their eyes with their right hands and said:
"I will obey your teachings, and thou art the ruler of life and death, the king of kings, and the God of God."
The milky white brilliance of the silver-white "holy relic" gradually faded, and if there was an archmage or legendary rank here, you could see a vast universe faintly revealed in the light, and the stars emitted different colors of light in it.
Within the atomic universe.
Lucian floated on a relatively stable planet of silicon, with an altar of intricate magic patterns in front of him, and a statue of a bald dwarf placed on the altar.
The statue is made up of hand-polished metal parts, with a cold and mysterious luster, and its head is painted with a dark blue mysterious pattern, as if constantly emitting psychic electromagnetic waves.
The sacred and solemn milky white light continued to converge from the void and wrap around this statue, they kept flying in and out, gradually merging together, forming a unique feeling of vastness and transcendence.
And those points of light that have not yet merged are like little angels flying, and if you listen intently, you can faintly hear different sounds of prayers, praises and praises, which will create an ethereal holiness around you.
The power of divine magic flows out of the statue, feeds back into the altar, and draws magical power from the altar to maintain it. In such a situation, magic and magic are in unprecedented harmony!
"It's a pity that the heart of faith contradicts the cognitive world, otherwise we can also use magic without relying on the assistance of objects." There were four people floating around Lucian, namely Douglas, Fernando, Hathaway and Natasha, and it was Douglas who made this exclamation.
Although magicians can also build cognitive worlds based on part of their faith, just like Altil, when the cognitive world collapses and is damaged, instead of blowing out his head, he is swallowed up by the holy light, but this does not mean that he can use divine magic, unless he completely transforms the cognitive world and solidifies it into a heart of faith.
Lucian nodded slightly: "The two are not even the same foundation, one is built on the essence and mystery of the world, based on one's own cognition, and the other is obtained by gradually aligning ideas and beliefs with the gods, and will lose part of the self. In this experiment, I hope to explore the various details of the secret of the pseudo-god, unlike before, there are only general conjectures and no substantial progress."
This is a god path that has been improved by Thanos, Viken, and others, and is very different from the pseudo-gods who rely on primitive methods such as the "Dark Dragon God" captured before, and can better reflect the essence.
"Existence is the truth, whether we want to admit it or not, whether we want to take this path or not, the existence of 'gods' itself indicates a certain aspect of the nature of the world, so we cannot escape, we must face it, truly determined arcanists will not deviate from their beliefs because of the study of the secrets of the gods, Lucian, it is very valuable for you to carry out research in this area." Douglas has a very broad mind about this.
Lucian smiled and said: "I hope Your Excellency, Speaker, Teacher, and Granny Hathaway can keep it a secret for me.
He first filed the matter with several great arcanists.
"The gods are mysterious, I don't know what you are thinking." Fernando glared at Lucian. In his opinion, such a reason was too far-fetched, but he did not dismantle Lucian's stage, but planned to see his true thoughts in the future.
Hathaway took out her magic notebook and studied the questions left over from the past in light of the actual situation of the altar and special magic items (statues): "You can only grant ten dwarves magic?"
Fortunately, when I made the statue, I exchanged several medium and high-level magic items from the Church of Truth, the Earth Mother Goddess Church, and the Craftsman God Church, so that the statue itself has strong divine power, which can achieve the current effect, but in the short term, this is also the limit." Lucian explained in detail.
After Douglas, Fernando, and Hathaway collected first-hand information and left, Natasha looked at the dwarf statue curiously: "I never knew that your aesthetic taste had such a serious problem, you actually like bald heads, and you still paint patterns......"
As for the dwarves, she could understand, after all, this was the god of steam for the dwarf race.
Lucian laughed and said: "The name of this dwarf statue is 'Yuri'."
"Yuri...... What is the connection?" Natasha asked puzzled.
…………
Tower.
Samantha sat alone in her exclusive study, quietly looking at the air in front of her, as if there were low or shouting voices echoing in her ears.
"There may be a problem with determinism here, and some processes are probabilistic and irreversible......"
"Determinism must die......"
During this time, these words haunted her like a nightmare, making her hesitate, dazed and frustrated, and the most terrifying thing is that some of the experiments currently completed seem to illustrate the uncertainty and probability of microscopic particles.
She raised her hand, held her forehead, and whispered, "Arcane needs to live, so determinism must die?"
The voice was full of bitterness and resistance.
Dong Dong Dong, she heard hurried footsteps outside, a series of footsteps, so she opened the door and saw a tower magician gathering in a certain room.
"What's wrong?" Samantha sees her best friend Rachel.
Rachel's expression was confused and painful: "Haven committed suicide......"
"Suicide?" Samantha asked in surprise, suicide? Didn't blow up the head and die, but committed suicide?
There are not enough important experiments to prove uncertainty and probability, and all the thought experiments conceived alone cannot refute them, so even if Harvin is a staunch supporter of determinism, it will not affect the stability of the cognitive world.
This also left enough buffer time for himself and others.
"Maybe the development of arcane has made him desperate......" Rachel whispered.
New Year's Eve is as usual, I wish you all a happy New Year, ask for a monthly pass~
