Struggle in the Steam Age

The leader of the jackals in the astral plane who greeted Nora in the temple was also one of the first jackals who had contacted Nora and Lawrence and surrendered. He was later appointed to be in charge of important temple management.

Compared with when they first met, the jackal leader looked much younger than in the past, and this change came after Nora took control of the Astral Plane.

Because of the appearance of the dolls, the entire astral plane is slowly changing from the non-magic plane to the low-magic plane.

After all, it is different from the era when even the gods were between ignorance and civilization. People now have a far better understanding of the astral plane and beliefs than in the past.

And according to the experience accumulated from generation to generation, it can be said that the method of completely isolating the entire space to cultivate faith, which was adopted by the master of the astral plane, Hobbit, can be said to be a very thankless task.

Because according to everyone's experience, the quantity and quality of the power of faith depends not only on the devoutness of the believer, but also directly proportional to the extraordinary power or wisdom of the believer.

Or to be precise, this is directly proportional to the strength of the souls of those believers. And whether it is a wise man or an extraordinary man, they basically surpass those ordinary beings in this respect.

In addition, modern gods have also mastered more methods to filter and purify those mixed or unpolluted power of belief.

So it is not like the early gods either take a very expensive method to obtain the pure power of faith they need, or simply suck the chaotic power of faith to turn themselves into a mad god.

Therefore, the specific situation of the astral plane in the hands of Nora and the others is obviously out of date.

In the beginning, Nora tried to change the rules of this astral plane. It turns out that the rules of the entire astral plane are based on the entire New Territory, and once modified, it is likely to cause the plane to collapse.

After discovering this, Nora at that time could only choose to give up the modification. Then treat this astral plane as a pure non-magic plane. However, as Nora's extraordinary level increases, her understanding of the rules of this astral plane continues to deepen.

When she stepped into the legendary rank, she quickly realized that the basic rules of the astral plane were not impossible to change, but to make changes, she had to reach a certain extraordinary level, and the legendary rank could only be obtained Minimal modification permissions only.

So in this case, Nora slightly modified the extraordinary power level of the entire plane. After the modification, the extraordinary power of the entire space changed from no magic to slight magic.

And the most intuitive change is that the upper limit of the power of those creatures existing in this plane will be upgraded from the original ordinary existence to the apprentice level.

For example, the person in charge named Silverback in front of him was like this. In just a few months, he successfully made a breakthrough in the witch doctor and became an extraordinary person at the apprentice level.

Also because of this reason, his appearance suddenly looks 20 years younger.

"I will undergo a complete power transformation immediately." Nora ordered the leader of the astral plane jackal who looked like a middle-aged jackal. "So I hope you can hold a large-scale sacrifice in the next time, and move out all the things in the warehouse for use."

"My lord, are you going to take a decisive step?" After hearing what Nora said, the leader of the jackals immediately pulled a red wool rope covered with gold pieces and rang the temple bell. The big clock passed on the message of launching the overall sacrifice, and then looked at the projection of the little puppet with a fanatical gaze and said.

As the residents of the astral plane who belonged directly to the gods back then, the most knowledge they passed down was the knowledge about how to serve the gods.

Therefore, after Nora said these words, the jackal, who was a direct descendant of the group of priests back then, immediately thought of what was going on in the current situation.

It must be said that since taking over the Astral Plane to the present, Lawrence and the others have repeatedly declared that Nora and the original Harpy God are two existences, which have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

For the jackals, the puppet is not another resurrection of the harpy god, but a new god who has gained the power of the harpy god.

Of course, the success of this kind of propaganda is closely related to the fact that Harpy God has fallen for thousands of years. Even if all the people who chose this place were the most devout believers of Harpy God.

But after dozens or even hundreds of generations, the jackals who have not received a response from the gods and gods for a long time are naturally unable to maintain their original level of piety.

In the decades before Lawrence and Nora entered this astral plane, all kinds of spontaneous doubts about the gods had been secretly circulated in the jackal group.

Although because of tradition, this kind of questioning is limited to private and unsystematic discussions, even if the questioner still maintains his belief on the surface.

However, if this trend continues, even without external intervention, the original beliefs may change dramatically within a few generations, or even disappear completely.

Therefore, after Nora and the others came to this astral plane, they immediately helped them make up for the original gap. However, after the traditionalists realized that it was completely impossible to worship Nora as the original Harpy god, those jackals People quickly switched to a workaround, promoting Nora as a new god.

However, considering the thousands of years of tradition in the entire astral plane, they did not directly declare that Nora is everyone's new god. Instead, they claimed in a devious way that the Harpy god they had worshiped for generations had fallen, and the little puppet was a new god who inherited part of the power of the Harpy god.

This kind of story made up by the upper echelons of the jackals in order to take into account all aspects of the situation is actually not wrong. After all, the foundation of Nora's birth comes from the last remaining part of the existence of God Harpy in this world.

Also through this kind of publicity, the jackals quickly converted their original belief in the harpy god to the head of the little doll.

And before this head-to-head battle with Rose, Nora naturally thought of the jackal. And hope to provide yourself with more power through the ceremony held here, in order to gain enough advantages in the next battle.

So when the jackal named Silverback asked, Nora simply nodded and admitted what to do next. "Yeah, I'm going to face a fight. If I win, then I'll actually take some power."

"That's great, it's really great." After hearing the positive answer from the little puppet, the elder Jackal named Silverback burst into tears.

The tears gushing from the eyes even wet the short white hairs on the cheeks, and then dripped to the ground along the hairs that were glued into strands by the tears.

Nora looked at the excited look of this jackal and stood quietly aside, because she knew that the reason why this group of jackals were so excited was because they had been trapped here for thousands of years since their original gods disappeared. , also suffered a lot during this time.

It was also during these days that the jackals realized that if they could have a kind and high-level existence to protect them. Then their life should be better than it is now.

This is the reason why the jackals were all willing to bow down at his feet after Nora showed her kindness, so Nora's stepping forward at the level of extraordinary power did not only affect her personally.

For example, for these jackals, if Nora can really complete this kind of transformation, the entire astral plane will naturally complete an ascension as a whole, and then let them, the residents living in the astral plane, Have a better future.
