Mortals always feel that it is just and just for gods to protect their believers, but what do gods think?
Mortals always try to impose their wishes on the gods, hoping that the gods will do everything the mortals want. Otherwise, they will not believe in the gods once they have the choice. This is belief in gods.
This is why the character of a god is easily affected by his or her ministry.
It is like this every day, every night, every month, every year, for thousands of years and hundreds of millions of years. Unknowingly, gods can easily be kidnapped by faith.
In the eyes of elves who pursue perfection, their god king should be synonymous with perfection.
Corellon did so without even realizing it.
Demand perfection from yourself.
Appear in front of all elves in a perfect image.
Treat every believer and every being who interacts with the elves with a perfect attitude, so that everyone and every being feels that the elves are so perfect and superior, and that the elves are the most beautiful and perfect creatures in the world.
Corellon's performance over the past hundreds of millions of years has been so perfect that every elf and every elven god firmly believes that every decision Corellon makes must be correct.
However, there has never been a perfect existence in the world, not even gods.
The gods with powerful divine power have the advantage of home field in their own divine kingdom. No foreign enemies have invaded for hundreds of millions of years, and they have spent hundreds of millions of years as chess players.
Because of the destruction of the world, those gods who were once aloof had to come down to earth, and changed from chess players to chess pieces that had to be fought in person. Are you used to it?
Before the arrival of the Year of Destruction, the greatest nickname of the gods was the ‘Immortal’!
When the immortals who used to be able to take care of everything by sending an avatar become living beings who can be easily killed, the side of the gods that is unknown to outsiders will also be revealed at the most critical moment.
For example, no courage!
What is courage?
Courage can be a very illusory existence.
A mother once rushed into a burning house to save her young child.
There are also mortal husbands who lifted up boulders weighing more than a ton to rescue their wives.
This is courage!
Courage is everywhere, and courage can be absent at any time.
Of course, the elves were not the only ones who were attacked at the same time. For example, Tire's floating continent No. 21 was attacked by the second-generation demon prince Wolf Spider Miska and Chaos. At the height of the battle, there were more than 10,000 of them.
The Obiris Demon killed its way to the third level where a large number of mortal refugees were located.
Almost everyone thought that Tire was about to be defeated. When all the refugees here would be slaughtered, the goddess of luck, Tymora, appeared.
"I believe good luck should be accompanied by justice, kindness and hope."
Taimora, a goddess with almost no fighting ability, appeared in her true form in the center of a refugee camp where demons were flying around, and openly accepted worship from believers there.
Tymora was even killed by a second-rate demon lord at one point. Fortunately, Tyr's new followers arrived with magical power and killed him.
In this chaotic moment when demons are raging uncontrollably and it seems that the gods are completely unable to protect mortals, Taimora's arrival and subsequent actions not only calmed the panic and bewilderment of the people, but also let the people know that there is still time to come.
There are gods who care about their mortal followers.
"I need your support!"
The exaggerated power of faith is transformed into the divine power of Taimora.
A miracle happened.
The paladins of Tyr's camp slashed at demons with various fatal blows and critical hits. They dodge the opponent's attacks in various ways.
Then the devil made all kinds of mistakes when fighting the paladin, accidentally injuring teammates, throwing himself on the street while walking, and stuffing his teeth into his teeth after drinking water.
In addition to those ranged attacks that are destined to hit, the strange battle conditions simply drive the demons crazy.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Taimora had not stepped forward so bravely this time, Tire might have knelt down.
With Tymora's brilliant performance, Corellon's performance was even more terrible.
Not only did he escape with his body, but he also took the emergency escape capsule covering nearly 600 square kilometers of the floating continent and ejected his entire kingdom of God.
If it hadn't been for the last moment, Raven had Tempus, Lyla, and Mishakai come to the rescue with more than 10 of Raven's followers and more than 100,000 high-level golems, repelling the abyss coalition forces. Then today would be the elf
The day the clan perished.
Even with Raven's rescue, the damage to the elves in this battle was extremely huge. Whether it was personnel, materials, divine servants, gods, and spirituality...it was a huge failure for the elves on every level.
More than 1.5 million elven warriors and civilians died in the battle, hundreds of elven settlements were burned to the ground by the flames from the abyss, and almost all ancient war trees and tree spirit guards were burned to ashes. Including the elven bow and arrow god Rope
More than half of the elves and gods, including Ronor, fell, and even the Kingdom of God was destroyed.
The only survivors are Angelis, the goddess of life, Henali, the goddess of love, Sehanni, the god of prophecies and illusions, and the dark girl Eilistraee, who is not included in the elven pantheon.
Adelie summoned wind and rain, and the heavy rain accelerated to extinguish the flames.
Raven's incarnation came, and he saw Angelis standing in the rain, and he was about to walk over. But he didn't expect Angelis to turn around first.
Angelis stood quietly in the pouring rain with a long weapon [Twilight Spear] with a tip that looked like a saw-shaped scimitar in one hand.
Without turning on the divine shield, she let the raindrops pour on her body. Her smooth orange-red waist-length hair stuck to her back because of the moisture. Her emerald green eyes were full of dejection.
"Raven. Are the elves going to perish?"
Corellon's escape is undoubtedly a collapse of faith for Angelis and even the entire elves.
It is obviously just the patron saint of a single race, but it has been beautified and rendered into the most perfect symbol of omnipotence. However, once this symbol breaks down at such a critical moment, it will be a spiritual doom.
Raven was a little stunned.
He didn't know how to answer. He couldn't take action. Of course, there was a check and balance between the enemy gods and gods. Deep down in his heart, in order to complete the integration, he also wished that the major gods would be unlucky as soon as possible.
When he really faced this situation, he could only remain silent.
This is the consequence of his choice to let it go!
Maybe he can change history again and save the entire elves as a protector. Then what? Let these proud creatures who advocate freedom, beauty, art and nature do things again and again in the year of extremely poor supplies.
Big death?
Seeing that the elven nobles would rather use the entire ship's space to transport art than install a few more ancient war trees, Raven felt sick.
But Raven couldn't say or do anything from the beginning, because the god-king of the elves was Corellon, not him, Raven. And those elven nobles acted like this. It was all with Corellon's acquiescence.
It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Corellon is still in power, the elves will have no chance of success.
So Raven was waiting, quietly waiting for the elves to make a big mistake.
The only thing Raven didn't expect was that after history changed drastically, Corellon's behavior would also be completely different.
In the history of previous lives, the elven pantheon could not bear to merge with the natural pantheon of humans until the Year of Voyage. Then, because its concepts and fighting methods could not adapt to the year of war, the elven pantheon and the natural pantheon soon after arriving in the End.
The natural gods were destroyed together.
In this life, because of the intervention of the Outer God, the elves can be said to have pounced in advance.
On the contrary, the human natural pantheon has become stronger with the addition of Shantia and Su Lun, who were independent in their previous lives.
Thinking of this, Raven sighed.
Looking up at the most famous elf-born god in the world, Angelis said softly: "I have always believed that the pursuit of freedom, art and beauty is right. The elves' disastrous defeat today is mainly because the elves do not have enough
to protect these beautiful things."
She raised her head and looked at each of the elves wandering in the ruins: "The elves have not been completely wiped out. If these people can survive the upcoming fierce war, one day they will be the spark for the revival of the elves.
.”
"..." When Angelis said this, Raven already had a vague premonition.
"Raven, please agree to my request."
"You said, I may not agree."
Angelis looked at Raven, her eyes were astonishingly hot: "Please become the patron saint of the elves. Let the elves multiply. This is my only wish. Raven, for the sake of the elves' blood in your body.
superior."
"Yes, but the elves must live according to my rules in the future." Raven raised his first finger: "First of all, all adult elves, regardless of gender, will receive military training or mage tutorials according to their specialties, and the nobility will be cancelled.
The system and parliamentary system are completely integrated into the military system of Death Shadow. All minor or elderly elves are involved in war logistics affairs."
Raven raised his second finger: "Second, cancel hunting and simple gathering lifestyles, and replace them with more efficient farming. All daily necessities will be rationed during the war."
"Third. Cancel all large-scale entertainment activities except for holy days of gods and festivals announced by me. Daily entertainment activities shall not exceed one hour."
Raven put forward the conditions in one breath, then turned and left. He knew that Angelis would not agree.
really……
"You are trying to completely destroy the traditions of the elves!" behind Raven, Angelis shouted.
"Then you and the elves will drown in their traditions!"
Raven put down the harsh words and then disappeared.
Returning to his temple, Raven sat on the throne and sighed.
Laila came over and leaned gently on Raven's shoulder.
"Raven. Are you in a bad mood?"
"Well, a little bit."
"Do you think you did something wrong this time?"
"No, I'm not wrong. The world is going to be destroyed, and all races must make changes to adapt to the situation."
"What if you refuse to change?"
"The only result is destruction, and no one can save them." (To be continued.)
ps: The attack of the elves is something I have always wanted to write about. It is not that I mean to blacken the elves, but I feel that such creatures with absolute liberalism and naturalistic character must be the most unlucky in this kind of apocalypse.
Similarly, Corellon's coward, I think this is more like the inevitable collapse of a perfectionist imposed by outsiders.
