Soul of Burning Steel

Vol 7 Chapter 5: Order cycle

At the beginning of the creation of the world, fire blazed into the void, and it was determined that existence and nothingness, life and death and light and darkness, the fire that was originally the ‘only’ divided into other existences, and the complex multiverse was born.

From then on, anything, even if it is just a concept, as long as it has existed and its name has been recited by others, it will be backed by true and true power.

For example, there was no thunder and rain, squally wind and waves in this world, but one day, the atmospheric friction in a certain world produced electric fire and water droplets, and the air pressure surged in the ocean of a certain world. Typhoons and huge waves have occurred, and at the root of the diverse world, ‘thunder’, ‘rains’, ‘squalls’ and ‘waves’ appear and are recorded. After that, the mages can use magic, the power from the beginning, to connect these concepts, and turn the elements and magic into new thunder and rain.

The power of existence in the early days has differentiated and become more complex and diverse. This has been even more true since the emergence of life. In addition to the various natural phenomena that actually existed, countless'symbolic powers' have also appeared one after another, such as healing. , Right, Wisdom... These unsubstantial concepts also have strength from the source.

Divinity is actually an unexpectedly complicated thing, and it takes a lot of time to explain it, so to make a long story short and to express it briefly, it is a way to the source of existence. The holder can use this way to induce the power behind it, but this Power is too pure, and it is easy to assimilate the soul of intelligent life. You must know that the holder of the divine nature is quite pure. This ability resonates with the power of the source, so it is easier to be assimilated.

The Pope gives two options for controlling the divinity.

The first one did not unexpectedly go beyond Joshua’s expectations. Just as Ogna, the **** of luck and despair, said, by constructing two completely different thoughts in his heart, he used this method of decisive opposition to the divine. , To balance the torrent of source power that is enough to drown the soul.

The second is to use divinity to weave a cycle of order.

To put it simply, the first option is to suppress the power through self-control, and to suppress the power output, narrow the portal to the source to the point where the soul can bear it. This method is difficult or not, but it is easy to have schizophrenia. After all, ordinary people don't have two brains like the two-headed Ogle. If self-suggestion is too high, they may be really crazy and even close the door.

The second method is more interesting.

According to the old Pope, the first method is only a part of the second method, and the second method is to'control' the divinity in the true sense, not to suppress it.

The entire multiverse is constructed by the power of existence. The so-called divinity is just a tiny hole leading to these powers. However, such huge powers are not destroyed due to conflicts. Instead, they form a solid and extremely stable. The universe-this is why they form an orderly cycle.

Because power is pure, it is difficult to control, but as long as the order is constructed by divinity, it can be controlled. Whether it is the seven gods of the human race or the ancient gods, they do this. They use their divinity as the foundation to organize all kinds of The doctrine, which describes the order of the world, constitutes a cycle that belongs to itself.

Back in the central temple area, in the room arranged by the church for itself, Joshua sat in a chair and recalled what Pope Igor had said to him.

"Is it more recommended that I choose the first method?"

Looking down at his hand, the soldier muttered to himself softly: "Power and justice, love and death, wisdom and conspiracy... These divinities constitute a small circle of the seven gods' own order, allowing their own logic to justify themselves. Then control this power with my own spirit."

"But what kind of cycle should be constructed in battle, destruction and killing?"

After thinking about it for about two seconds, Joshua gave up thinking, closed her eyes and sat on the chair slumberly.

I can't think of this kind of complicated thing now, so it's useless to worry about it in a short period of time. He has worked hard enough for the Anos Abyss and his party. Now is the time to rest, he will not fall into distress because of such small things.

The room arranged by the Church of the Seven Gods for Joshua and others is located inside a temple. This temple called the Temple of Justice is usually a high-level warehouse for storing magical puppets. However, it is now a war period and most of the puppets have been transferred. The original warehouse was transformed into a residence for priests.

The temple built of steel and rock gives people a sense of coldness. In fact, the internal temperature is suitable. The Holy Light Array will adjust the indoor temperature to the most suitable point for living creatures. This is the benefit that extraordinary power can bring. The room where Joshua and the others lived was extremely spacious. In fact, there was no decoration or furnishings inside. After all, it was just a warehouse before. You can even see the steel brackets and ritual arrays for the magical puppets in the corners. No. was standing there now, the huge steel element seemed to regard himself as a puppet, standing in the steel bracket, looking in a good mood.

And not far from Joshua’s seat is a big bed, black lazily lying on the bed, letting the silver-haired and black-haired teenagers poke her horns and cheek curiously, and the table next to it is full The delicious delicacies just delivered, and even the cherished specialties of the distant sea, the stone heart fish roe and the blue sacred white tree fruit.

Unlike Loranda and others, in the final analysis, the soldiers and the group are invited guests, so after the mission is over, Joshua can rest comfortably, while the three of the church have just left the Ark and received treatment not long after. He was quickly transferred to various positions and worked hard to deal with various matters.

This kind of thing is not uncommon. According to the words of previous lives, most of the priests are social animals, and they are willing to hire a priest to hire several mercenaries on top of them. They will do it day and night. Work hard and you will never be lazy-the premise is to be paid adequately.

Sister Shenji had a very good relationship with Hei before, and the same was true after Heilong transformed into a human form, especially Hotaru. She moved her hands and feet against Hei on the bed, groping around and whispering, "Here. It should be the bone spur on the back? Then the bulge here is the carapace? It's really strange..."

The silver-haired girl was surprised by the black figure. She used to be responsible for scrubbing the carapace of the half-dragon. Now that there is nothing to do, Hotaru started to distinguish which part of the dragon-shaped character was based on the armor worn by the black dragon girl.

In response, Hei murmured weakly: "...itchy, don't scratch, don't touch my tail.

Rin was not so interested. After touching the black and sharp dragon horns, he became a boring prototype and placed himself on the bed. The black giant axe over two meters pushed the entire mattress down by at least ten centimeters. Press out a deep depression.

Since the Shenji sister and brother were strengthened, they were able to freely transform the human and weapon forms, and the weapon forms were also able to move. I saw that Rin was probably annoyed by the silver-haired girl and black toss around him, and the huge black axe moved towards the bed. The other side moved slowly for a certain distance, the white sheet tore, and a big seam suddenly opened.

After playing with his head until he fell asleep because his head was still a little dizzy and dark because of the brain-eating bug, Hotaru turned his head and looked at the soldier sitting on the chair with his eyes closed, and asked curiously: "Master, why don't you come to bed to rest? "

"Forget it." Shaking her head, Qiao Xiu glanced at the already tossed and broken bed from the corner of her eye, and sighed: "I would rather sit."

Such a leisurely day lasted for a long time. Although mad dragons would come to harass every few days, the five-color dragons never launched a general attack. They seemed to be waiting for the formation of a storm on the far sea, and then took advantage of the power of the typhoon. Oppress the defensive magic around the holy mountain, take this opportunity to attack.

According to the Pope’s words, Joshua has completed the mission and is completely free from participating in the battle. He can return to the empire after the decisive battle between the Church of the Seven Gods and the Crazy Dragon is over. However, with the character of a warrior, he naturally can’t be idle. Every time a flying dragon comes. Harassment, he will try to take action, and then frighten batch after batch of flying dragons and return without success.

After repeating this a few times, even Hei's record is better than Joshua. However, one time it was probably because the opposite side did not believe in evil, and several giant dragons that were not afraid of the warrior's coercion were mixed in the flying dragon group with the intention of making a surprise attack. They wanted to solve this big problem. Needless to say, it was naturally harvested by Joshua. wave.

In that battle, to be honest, there was indeed some risk. A few extremely Yi-level blue dragon leaders and a few gold-level old dragons cooperated, enough to instantly kill any ordinary Extreme fighter, but it is a pity that Joshua was already there. A few kilometers away, he smelled something wrong, he would make plans, and then cooperate with the other strong people in the church to leave them all.

The death of an extremely Italian-class dragon and several golden dragons is a heavy loss even for the five-color dragon clan. Since then, the harassment of the crazy dragon has been a lot more cautious, and both sides are waiting for the final moment of the battle. Joshua also gained considerable prestige among the priesthood of the Holy Mountain.

"Good day, Lord Earl."

Below the central temple area, in the complex and vast underground facility, a middle-aged paladin wearing a full-length armor gave Joshua a knightly ceremony. He politely said: "You are going to Warehouse No. 3. ? Then please let me show you the way."

"Trouble you." Wearing a white coat specially provided by the church, Joshua nodded slightly, and then asked the other party to lead her way.

On the ground of Ash Island of Edda, there are various shrines and residential areas, but just like all the churches on the mainland have dungeons at the bottom, there is also a large underground fortress directly under the sacred mountain in the distant sea, where in addition to imprisoning some cultists Except for the punished priests, most of the time they are vacant and used as warehouses and experimental areas. They will only be activated during wartime, allowing ordinary priests who have no combat power to take refuge.

Qiao Xiuya came here naturally not to visit, but to receive his own reward.

Whether it is going to the Abyss of Anos or helping the Church of the Seven Gods, the fighters have made many contributions. If you count the anti-dragon potions provided by the empire to the church and the Far Southern Kingdom, it is even more important. So according to a bishop’s suggestion, Joshua could go to the church’s storage warehouse and take whatever he saw at will.

Originally, the warrior didn’t bother to get this kind of reward. He was already an extremely strong man. Most of the magical items in this world were of no use to him, but Rin reminded him that even if he didn’t need it, Joshua did. It can be brought back to the territory to be used by others, especially the group of students at Winterhold College.

Under the leadership of the middle-aged paladin, Joshua walked along the wide rocky road, and after a few minutes came to the warehouse area of ​​the underground fortress. The soldiers could see a wide corridor extending forward, flanked by countless fork roads and huge warehouse gates. The top of the corridor is inlaid with huge pyroxenes. Under the white light, it is even brighter than the surface temple covered by clouds.

There are many guards patrolling the surrounding area of ​​the warehouse. All of them are self-assured and full of confidence. The mad dragons block the sea and the siege of the holy mountain does not make these priests show the slightest panic, because everyone firmly believes that the church is bound to be there. A great victory in this battle.

This is really not their blind self-confidence ~www.novelmtl.com~ Unlike the previous life, the Church of the Seven Gods, which received the Crazy Dragon Project very early, has now gathered the power of all the elites, and the elite priests wandering on the mainland have joined forces. Not blocked by the mad dragon, but returned to the holy mountain long before the opponent blocked the sea.

Although the power of the mad dragon is much stronger than in the previous life due to the lack of obstacles from the player, compared with the two, the basic combat power still has the advantage of the holy mountain.

All of the guards in front of Joshua’s eyes are silver peak-level strengths, and a leader not far away even has gold-level strength. On the mainland, they are the principals of a church or a knight group, but In the holy mountain, they are all ordinary patrol team members.

After seeing the arrival of the warrior, the guard knight who had received the news a long time ago gave Joshua a respectful smile, bowed and saluted, and then opened the warehouse door.
