Uplifting Journey

The magic of detecting the camp is powerless against the red dragon who freely dominates its soul, nor can it penetrate the fog of fate surrounding the red dragon. Faced with this situation, the young paladin Arthur felt a little at a loss.

Unable to confirm the nature of the target, do not understand the other party's thoughts and experiences.

After getting rid of the inexplicable impulse in his soul, Arthur couldn't just use his identity to convince himself, and judged a strange life as evil at will.

Although the older generation of paladins have always taught them that justice has different positions, as a human being, it is impossible for you to defend the "justice" of cannibalism from the perspective of an ogre.

Race and identity can be used as the basis for judgment in many cases, and the most typical one is demons. What paladins defend is always human beings as the main example, intelligent creatures who desire a better life and do not take pleasure in harm justice.

You can't discuss the economic crisis and derivative disasters caused by the loss of precious metals in the gold standard society with a red dragon who likes to destroy and plunder, let alone let him face up to the pain and lives of ordinary humans who are like bugs in his eyes.

Arthur, who had various contradictory thoughts in his mind, had unknowingly relaxed from his fighting stance.

The pure aura surrounding the red dragon, and the natural sense of trust and intimacy derived from it, are breaking down his vigilance bit by bit. Even if he saw the aura of the red dragon tampering with his own camp before, he could not stop this process. .

For the red dragon who specializes in soul spells, such things as fighting can be completely terminated by him at the embryonic stage of the thought level. The power of soul interference is far more dangerous than fire and sword. As long as he is willing, it can be clearly analyzed by divine spells. A paladin with regular protection and real name can't even lift a sword.

After all, things like magic are actually spells driven by divine power. Although the level of divine power is high at the root, it is still leveraging the laws of magic to leverage greater power.

Unless it is the kind of brainless "supernatural power" that directly distorts reality with pure divine power, all divine arts can be analyzed and interfered in front of Cheng Bin.

Of course, if the soul's interference was too much and the divine consciousness hidden in Arthur's real name was stimulated, then there would be no such convenient thing to do.

Using various sensory expansion modules of the body of the red dragon, he observed the subtle friction between the soul body of Arthur, a potential god, and the feedback of his real name. Cheng Bin was thoughtful: "This guy wants to change his priesthood from scratch?"

A living, naked god was observed at will, and Cheng Bin learned a lot of knowledge and skills at the god level that are difficult to briefly describe in ordinary language.

So he can see that as long as Arthur, a paladin, steps into the legendary awakened real name, he can directly awaken the consciousness of the gods, and re-promote the main consciousness to the kingdom of the gods through a process similar to when he became a god, and restore his status as a god. all authority of .

During this process, Arthur can relatively easily readjust his clergy domain—provided that his believers scattered throughout reality cooperate with divinity synchronously.

"The general belief in the source of the Holy Light allows the gods on the order side to have a common belief pool to a certain extent, and share the computing resources of the believers through the priesthood agreement. This guy Arthur really has a certain degree It’s good to be confident, organized and have a background.”

After figuring out what is behind Arthur, Cheng Bin used the law of his real name feedback, combined with the god information obtained from Morrigan, and roughly guessed which god this paladin is——

The God of Justice and Judgment, the source of the Holy Light, has disappeared since a long time ago when he split into a lawful and neutral God of Law and Contract. He has no movement except when the divine power server feeds back believers to pray.

Judging from the real name of Arthur's soul, the life of a paladin who is a follower of the God of Justice is definitely not the whole of his experience.

And the illusory angel behind Arthur, who can only be observed through the real name interface, seems to be the Holy Spirit-level apostle of this god, who is in charge of the godhead in the Kingdom of God.

——The purpose of such an existence to find himself is really intriguing. Even if it has various means to protect the core consciousness from harm and reincarnation, it also has the guardianship of apostles and even other gods, so that the carrier body is directly exposed In front of a demigod-level soul master, it is also a very high risk.

After there were no more observable results, Cheng Bin finished the preliminary research work, moved the huge one-horned head of the red dragon closer, and said to Arthur, "Paladin, what are you hesitating about?"

Hearing the loud sound like the reverberation of strong wind and thunder, Arthur recovered from his tangled heart. He stared directly at the behemoth whose face covered most of his vision. Tell a lie to the powerful existence in front of you: "I don't know if I should be hostile to you because you are a red dragon."

"Hehe." The ferocious red dragon didn't seem to care about his attitude, but just smiled gently, "You are not the first person to be hostile to me because I am a red dragon. Of course, I hope to be the last."

The two elves, Lacey and Ivy, were almost like this at the beginning. The red dragon species has indeed reached a certain level of death. The five-color dragons are basically inclined to evil, but the reputation of the red dragon species is the most widely spread in all planes. .

"In the face of a race that is inherently evil, most people don't think about whether their hostility is appropriate, but you think this way, not because you are afraid of my power."

The thunderous voice of the red dragon seemed to contain profound magical power. Arthur's thoughts were fiddled with by invisible hands, and he couldn't help digging out the deepest thought amidst the lingering contradictions.

"In your heart, you are longing for a brand-new order, an order that transcends races and classes, and allows all intelligent life to live in the light of justice and equality."

Arthur was stunned for a while, remembering the reason why he came to the Holy City of Knowledge - he came to find a way to bring justice to a dilemma that could not be solved with the sword and the holy light.

Although his goal is not as lofty as the red dragon said, it sounds like there is a faint feeling of joy and recognition in his heart. Arthur, who noticed the change in his heart, fell into deep thought.

Without waiting for Arthur to come up with something, the red dragon spoke inexplicably again: "You know what you want, and you also know what hinders you, so you became what you are now, so You will come to me."

"No," Arthur, feeling inexplicably ominous in his heart, suddenly interrupted the Red Dragon's words, "I don't understand what you're talking about."

The red dragon gave a low laugh, and looked at the young paladin with wondrous eyes: "I still admire the existence of you who don't hesitate to practice your ideals, and are even willing to make enemies of the world, even for a short period of time. By working together we risk becoming enemies."

Arthur hesitated to speak, with a puzzled expression on his face.

The red dragon's protruding dragon head slowly retracted, and directly engraved the message into the soul of the paladin with the language of the soul from a long distance: "If you want to ask me about what you want to do. There are some You can refer to the information I gathered while visiting the main plane before."

After talking a lot to himself, the red dragon glanced at the paladin one last time: "Arthur, if you don't want your only personality to be swallowed up, you should take a good look at it. Escape won't solve the problem."

In the misty words of the soul, the figure of the red dragon gradually faded away, and the pure white clouds slowly spread, covering Arthur's sight.

The next moment, loud voices came to his ears, and Arthur, who was startled, found that he had unknowingly returned to the avenue outside Tallinn, surrounded by pedestrians in a hurry.

——Is what I just experienced just an illusion?

Arthur, who was stunned for a while, felt a slight pain in his head, and a large amount of article information suddenly poured into his consciousness amidst the pain——

"Introduction to Extraordinary Society", "Representatives of the Most Advanced Productive Forces", "Faith Connection Foundation and Church Organizational Structure", "Magic Net Contact Rules and Guidance Completion Plan", "God Ecological Survey".

After the series of shocking headlines, there are large-scale articles full of data and charts. The unprecedented perspective and format make Arthur feel obscure, but he can't help but want to detail it bit by bit. Think carefully.

But soon Arthur yanked his mind from the information.

"This is blasphemy." Arthur clenched his teeth after seeing something, and just knelt down on the avenue and bowed his head to pray, trying to get rid of the information that had brought him great fear before from his mind, "God , please forgive me"

After half payment, Arthur, who regained his composure, stood up amidst all kinds of strange eyes around him. He re-examined part of the information he kept in his mind, and then continued to walk towards Tallinn City.

——The Holy City, which gathers a lot of knowledge, should be able to verify the knowledge in my mind, and also solve some doubts in my heart.

Behind Arthur, the phantom of the angel who has never said a word, its admiration gaze at Arthur's back has changed back to pity

Easily passed through the magic lock on the outskirts of Tallinn City, followed the faith connection to the silver-haired elf beside Lacey, turned around and looked in the direction of the road outside the city with red eyes——

Want to realize a beautiful society like Utopia? Rather than destroying the god system and destroying all supernatural paths, it is indeed easier to become the Supreme God who controls everything. The neutral Supreme God who is absolutely fair and rational can at least realize part of the vision that "Arthur" is pursuing.

It's a pity that the civilization composed of intelligent life will never be satisfied with the status quo and stop making progress, so the supreme god similar to AI will only be dragged down from the altar in self-restraint

Soothing the curious baby-like Lai Xi, Cheng Bin glanced around at the landscape of the Holy City of Knowledge dotted with towers, and continued to think——

No wonder Morrigan repeatedly emphasized not to choose a priesthood that involves thinking and emotion. Looking at the soul changes of Arthur, a paladin, priesthoods such as justice, courage, and justice do have quite terrifying reverse thinking erosive power.

Morrigan has always kept the behavioral productivity priesthood and ignored other dwarven priesthood fields. It seems that he is also a veteran god who has experienced a lot of things.

However, with such a group of gods from the source of holy light attracting firepower in front, the plan to increase the godhead level is much easier. I don’t know what they think of my magic net plan. If we can reach a cooperation, there are still many benefits .

After pondering for a while, Cheng Bin had already seen all the places except the high-intensity magic tower thoroughly. He sorted out a large amount of knowledge information at all levels, and then planned to go directly to the Temple of Knowledge at the core of Tallinn City.

Lacey and Ivy are very interested in the knowledge gathered on the main plane and the weird inventions. The various knowledge and technology exchanges, trading systems, and a large number of activities and competitions here make them eager to try.

Cheng Bin, who is very purposeful, has no way to get any fun from this kind of behavior similar to shopping and playing, and has no intention of adjusting his thinking to get entertainment feedback here, so he continues to let his followers go sightseeing and explore, and he goes to the core temple to try Contact the god of knowledge.

Watching the back of Lacey leaving, the silver-haired and black-clothed elf pondered: "The relatively good social environment of the elves relies on the individual's sufficient productivity and the united and calm nature engraved in the genes, so to speak Well, the kind of thing that Arthur wants can also be achieved with large-scale brainwashing and thought stamps, but a righteous paladin would not do that.”

The view that would not be easily blocked allowed Cheng Bin to see Lacey and Ivy who were separating at the blind corner of the building. He looked at the group of slime girls who were distorting, reshaping and coloring little by little, and noticed that Some cryptic feedback——

Ivey has also gradually begun to establish a faith connection with me. It takes so long to get a little sign of a successful connection after reaching the legendary level and having contact with the real name level. My belief is really difficult to deal with.

After shaking his head, Cheng Bin turned around and walked towards the city core surrounded by towering towers of different styles.

Outside the material world, in the special spiritual level to which the real names of thousands of living beings belong, there is a huge system called the source of holy light, which is composed of many gods and kingdoms.

Mortals who have not discovered the power of their real names cannot maintain their full thinking ability when their physical bodies die and only their real names remain, let alone observe the image of the source of the holy light.

In the eyes of legendary powerhouses and those attracted by their pious beliefs, the source of holy light is a beautiful world without worries, with sky, earth and warm light.

In the eyes of the existence that touches the deep mysteries of the realm of God, you can see part of the true face of the source of the holy light—it is a complex concept of justice, fairness, courage, etc. that is based on the real names of thousands of believers. It is an extremely complex and huge information network.

The kingdom of the gods does not have exactly the same form in the eyes of the believers whose consciousness resides in it. The observation and expectations of the believers themselves often make them see the most noble and beautiful scenes within their understanding.

Among them, the gods who were watched and worshiped by them were also included.

As the focus of observation by countless believers, theoretically, the consciousness is stored in the godhead, and the body has already been transformed into another god in the ceremony of becoming a god, and the god who is worshiped by the believers in the kingdom of God will still appear in the kingdom of God, and can be seen by ordinary people. Understand what cognition looks like.

The gods in the source of the holy light have been like this since the day they became gods. They used the authority of the gods ideally, and they never realized what problems existed in it.

And inside the core temple of the source of the holy light, the body still bears several human-shaped gods, and they are discussing about the young paladin Arthur and the red dragon.

I can't even think of the title because I'm so tired
