There’s An Instance Dungeon In My Living Room

Chapter 232 The Story of the Abyss

Chu Ge listened, suddenly a little strange, "If everyone knows the truth about the gods, why do so many people still believe in them devoutly?"

Vera shook her head: "Not everyone knows it, in fact, most of them don't know it, after all, not everyone has a sister who is a saint, let alone everyone has the opportunity to enter the Church of Light I looked up materials in the library, and even if I had the opportunity to look up most of them, I probably wouldn’t be able to understand them, after all, not everyone is literate.”

The so-called saint in Vera's mouth should refer to Kara, but Chu Ge recalled that Kara's holy appearance back then, which really fits the word saint.

As for literacy, Chu Ge is not difficult to understand. Although he has only been to the world of Akalum twice, he feels that it is very backward. It is probably better than medieval Europe, but certainly not as good as the Renaissance Europe, and because the religious culture is too strong, the secular humanities must be very bad.

Chu Ge nodded to express his understanding, and he asked another question of great concern.

"Then, does the God of Light have his own consciousness? Or does he only accept the settings given to him by the creator."

Vera shook her head, "Impossible, the gods are all fake, they are just phantoms condensed by the power of blind and fanatical beliefs, the joys, sorrows, sorrows, holiness and depravity they show are just the inner thoughts of believers. It's just a mapping."

Chu Ge thought, wouldn't that be the same as a computer program? If so, what happened to the hint Al gave himself? Is it just a coincidence, or that the suggestion that Al wants to obtain salvation is only because the hearts of its believers yearn for salvation, so it gives itself such a hint.

Doesn't that mean that there is no need for him to take care of Al's affairs?

However, at this moment, Xin Jiuniang, who had been listening attentively, suddenly said something.

"No, the gods are not fake. They have their own consciousness and emotions of good and evil. The reason why the gods in your world are so easily influenced and manipulated is because they are not gods in the strict sense."

Vera was stunned when she heard this, "Huh? What do you mean?"

Xin Jiuniang recounted the distinction between gods and spirits that she once told Chu Ge, "So the gods in your world are probably just spirits, but there are so many spirits and they are so powerful, it seems that the nature of your world is confused. It must be very powerful."

Chu Ge wondered, "The power of natural temptation? What is that?"

Vera also has an expression of listening to Jun's teachings.

Xin Jiuniang didn't hide her secrets, and gave the two of them some science.

It turns out that there are some spirits in the foreign world, but the number is not large. The appearance of these spirits is often relatively regular, and they only appear in certain specific places.

It may be a mountain, it may be a river, sometimes it is a spring, and sometimes it is just a stone. These places where "spirits" can be born are often full of vitality. Many people who practice Taoism thought that It is necessary to use this to improve the cultivation level, but these people often end up intoxicated. Whenever people meditate in these areas, they often sense a vast will, and therefore it is difficult to concentrate and calm down.

This inexplicable power is called the power of natural temptation by those who practice Taoism.

Until now, no one has figured out the principle of this force, only knowing that it is easier to have a "spirit" in such a place.

"Doesn't that mean that our world is all covered by the power of natural temptation? You must know that there are gods everywhere." As Vera spoke, she suddenly showed a look of enlightenment, " That's it, I understand."

"Understand what?"

Vera said eagerly, "Actually, magic exists in our world. You can even buy all kinds of magic books in the black market. There are wizards and witches who can use magic, but these wizards and witches are often Evil and crazy, like a madman, will do all kinds of horrible and terrible things, so both wizards and witches have a bad reputation.

When I first obtained the magic from the dungeon, I was almost caught and burned to death as a witch several times. I am afraid that this is due to the force of natural temptation. Fortunately, I learned the magic from the dungeon, otherwise I am afraid Will be like those guys. "

Vera showed a frightened expression, and suddenly her eyes lit up, as if she remembered something.

"Maybe I know where the source of the power of natural temptation is, it should come from the abyss!"

"Abyss? I was about to ask you, what's the matter with that abyss in your world?"

Vera explained again. At the center of the Akarum world, there is a huge black hole, bottomless and extremely dark. When people stare into it, they often feel that there is an extremely dark hole in the deep darkness. A terrible will.

In the original records, the abyss was harmless, and there were even human villages living near the abyss.

People accidentally discovered that the power emanating from the abyss can enhance human strength, spiritual ability, and stimulate human potential.

So many scholars and mystics began to study the power of the abyss one after another. Some knights and warriors wanted to use the power of the abyss to strengthen themselves.

However, I don't know when, a terrifying power began to spread from the abyss. People infected by this power often become crazy, full of aggressiveness, and often become extremely powerful, and sometimes have some kind of supernatural power , This force is also terrifyingly contagious. For hundreds of years, this force has become stronger and stronger, so that people in the areas around the abyss have migrated and fled, but the power of the abyss has spread unstoppably.

Those infected by the power of the abyss did not die. Instead, they gathered together and survived tenaciously, constantly attacking the surrounding human city-states. Their purpose was to make the whole world fall into the power of the abyss.

These people whose minds have been corrupted by the power of the abyss are often very powerful, and they have the power of the abyss on their bodies. It is often difficult for the human army to resist. They are either killed or infected.

It can be said that the abyss is the most terrifying enemy in the world of Akarum.

Fortunately, there is an organization called Abyss Monitors. They are the descendants of those who studied the power of the abyss. They have mastered a method of controlling the power of the abyss, which can avoid being corroded by the abyss to a certain extent. At the same time, they can use The power of the abyss has exerted a huge combat power. They condense the power of the abyss into something called the mark of the abyss and carry it with them. When necessary, they use it to gain powerful power. They fight tenaciously with the abyss spreaders sent by the abyss. However, the fate of these abyss watchers is often miserable, because they have been in contact with the power of the abyss for many years, and they are fine when they are young. Once they are old and mentally weakened, they will be easily controlled by the abyss and fall into madness.

So Abyss Watchers tend to commit suicide before reaching old age.

"The mark of the abyss? I seem to have one in my hand. Please help me see it." Chu Ge said, and took out a black coin-like thing from his pocket, which he struck from the Silent Light Monastery A special item.

[Mark of the Abyss (consumable)

Use: Grants you dark power from the depths for 24 hours.

Item introduction: A strange black item, which contains powerful power from the abyss. 】

When Vera saw this, her face was serious.

"That's right, it's this thing. I've seen this thing on an abyss scatterer before, maybe it was obtained from an abyss watcher. It does contain a trace of abyssal power, but since it's obtained from a dungeon, It shouldn’t make you crazy, but I think you’d better not use it lightly.”
