Chapter 26 The Holy Name of the God of Steam (Happy New Year's Eve)

Augustus lowered his right hand that covered his eyes and said solemnly: "Lord, listen! After our prayers, He has specially given us magic to spread the glory and preach the Word."

"This is the best compliment to our piety!"

As he spoke loudly, the milky white light around him turned into golden sunshine, rushing in all directions like waves, drowning Harold, Myrna and other dwarves.

Harold suddenly felt that his strength had increased again, his mood became excited, full of desire to fight, and he had no fear of despair, pain, etc.!

This is the feeling of a true warrior!

This is the fifth-level magical "War Tide", and it is also the limit that Augustus can reach at present!

At this time, Augustus's inner worries and sense of danger completely disappeared. It was not that the great God of Steam could not grant magical powers, it was just because he preferred the mysteries of steam and machinery, so he smiled and solemnly said: "I

After listening to the Lord's teachings, I understood that steam and machinery contain the deepest and greatest secrets of the entire world. If we can master them, we can have power beyond divine magic, just like the eternal blazing sun type weapon."

"The Lord told us that magic is just a temporary weapon used to protect ourselves at a certain stage in our journey, and it is by no means the real thing to live and preach. After this stage, we must naturally let go of magic.

, devote ourselves wholeheartedly to steam and machinery, discover their mysteries, and use our own efforts to gain the real power we can master. Only in this way can we build Atlantis on earth."

Harold and Myrna led the other core dwarves and shouted loudly: "Great God of Steam, you love us as if you hold the supreme authority.

May we rebuild a glorious steam civilization under your blessing!"

Augustus hesitated for a moment, but thinking of the vast divine aura and the incomparable miraculous magical skills, he still said solemnly and authentically: "You all pray in front of the holy objects one by one, and the Lord will grant magical skills to those of you who are devout in faith.

"

What?

real?

The ecstasy once again hit the hearts of Harold, Myrna and other dwarves. After witnessing the scene just now, they thought it was the divine grace sent down by the Lord specifically for the great elder. They and other believers who were a little shaken deep in their hearts

You will have to wait for a longer period of time and use actual actions to regain the magic.

Unexpectedly, the great God of Steam was actually ready to grant himself and others magical powers without any grudges!

"You are the embodiment of virtue and teach us the truth of forgiveness."

Harold and the other dwarves once again covered their eyes with their right hands and prayed very sincerely. They felt that their spirits were empty, their faith became more and more pious, and tears of joy flowed from the corners of their eyes.

Then, Harold came to the silver "nuclear bomb" sacred object and silently recited the contents of "Apocalypse Mechanical".

The surrounding noisy sounds disappeared, Myrna and the other dwarves watched with concentration and great expectation. Will Harold Lord send divine grace?

Suddenly, a clear and brilliant light shot out from the silver holy object again. It shone on Harold, as if he had been covered with a holy coat, making him look like the "angel" of the Cult of Truth.

It’s really a magical gift!

Myrna and the other dwarves were excited and excited. They had witnessed the miracle and the Lord's favor for the dwarves!

Harold's aura increased rapidly and slowly stopped when he reached the bishop level.

Seeing this, Great Elder Augustus quietly breathed a sigh of relief. According to the standards of the field of magic, he was a fifth-level bishop, while Harold was a third-level bishop. He was still the leader of the night dwarves and a member of the Church of Steam.

archbishop!

After that, the dwarves came to pray in front of the holy objects one by one in order, but not everyone could obtain the seeds of faith and grow a heart of faith. Only seven or eight dwarves, including Myrna, were given magical powers. The same

·Only Milna and Quiggins became third-level bishops like Harold.

But at this time, the other dwarves had no complaints, because those who were given magical powers were the most devout believers, that is, those who relied on "piety" to become leaders - after becoming leaders, even if they are not so pious, they must still behave

You must look very pious, otherwise how can you control your subordinates?

At the end of the ceremony, Archbishop Augustus stood in front of the sacred object again and said extremely solemnly: "Divine magic is in conflict with our goal of building Atlantis on earth. Therefore, the Lord asked us not to show off this matter, otherwise it will be very serious.

It is easy to get lost in power, and warns us to keep this secret and only show it quietly in front of devout believers. Whoever tells outsiders, or performs magic in front of outsiders when it is not necessary, will be punished.

Take back your power and become a sinner!"

He actually didn't quite understand why the great God of Steam would send such an oracle, but after experiencing the miracle and gaining the magical power, he didn't dare to question it.

Harold, Myrna, Quiggins and other dwarves did not dare to have any questions. They all covered their eyes with their right hands and said:

"I will obey your teachings. You are the Lord of life and death, the King of kings, and the God above gods."

The milky white brilliance of the silver-white "holy object" gradually dims. If there is a great mage or legendary level person here, you can see a vast universe faintly revealed in the light, with stars in it emitting light of different colors.

Within the atomic universe.

Lucien was floating on a relatively stable silicon planet. In front of him was an altar decorated with complex magic patterns, and on the altar was a statue of a bald dwarf.

This statue is entirely composed of hand-polished metal parts, with a cold and mysterious luster. The head is engraved with dark cyan mysterious patterns, as if it is constantly emitting electromagnetic waves from the soul.

The sacred and solemn milky white light continues to wrap around this statue from the void! They continue to fly in and out, and gradually merge together, forming a unique feeling of vastness and transcendence.

The light spots that have not yet merged are like little angels flying. If you listen carefully, you can faintly hear different prayers, praises and songs, which create an ethereal and holy surrounding.

The power of divine magic flows out from the statue, feeds back into the altar, and draws magical power from the altar to maintain it. Under such circumstances, divine magic and magic are in unprecedented harmony!

"It's a pity that the heart of faith conflicts with the understanding of the world. Otherwise, we can also perform divine magic without relying on items." There were four people floating around Lucien, namely Douglas, Fernando, Hathaway and Natasha.

, and it was Douglas who made this sigh.

Although the magician can also build a cognitive world based on part of the belief, just like Altir, when the cognitive world collapses and is damaged, his head is not exploded, but is swallowed by the holy light, but this does not mean that he can cast

Divine magic: Unless he completely transforms the cognitive world and solidifies it into a heart of faith, in the same way, except for the superimposed gods, no clergy can build a cognitive world and perform magic with a heart of faith.

Lucien nodded slightly: "The two are even based on different foundations. One is built based on the essence and mystery of the world, mainly based on one's own cognition, while the other is obtained through the gradual unification of ideas and gods of belief.

Losing part of myself. This experiment, I hope to use to explore the various details of the secret of the false god. Unlike before, there were only rough guesses and no substantial progress."

This is the path of gods improved by Thanos, Viken and others. It is very different from the previously captured "Dark Dragon God" and other pseudo-gods who relied on primitive methods to advance, and can better reflect their essence.

"Existence is the truth. Whether we are willing to admit it or not, whether we want to take this path or not, the existence of 'gods' itself reveals a certain aspect of the nature of the world. Therefore, we cannot escape and must face it. The truly determined arcanist

You will not deviate from your beliefs just because you study the secrets of the gods. Lucien, it is very valuable for you to carry out research in this area." Douglas has a very broad mind for this.

Lucien smiled and said: "I hope your Excellency the Speaker, Teacher, and Granny Hathaway can keep it a secret for me. Since we concealed the god-like method before, I'm worried that this matter will make other members of the Supreme Council doubt me.

Be careful and wait until you have certain research results before announcing them."

He first reported the matter to several great arcanists.

"Mysterious, I don't know what you are thinking." Fernando glared at Lucien. In his opinion, such a reason was too far-fetched, but he did not discredit Lucien, but planned to watch it in the future.

See what he really thinks.

Hathaway took out her magic notebook and studied the issues left over from the past based on the actual situation of the altar and special magical items (statues): "You can only grant divine magic to ten dwarves?"

"A lot of the power of faith accumulated in the past has disappeared due to lack of support. The current power of the statue cannot support the gift of divine magic to more than five people, nor can it reach the intermediate level. Fortunately, when I made the statue, I exchanged it for several pieces of the God of Truth.

The mid-to-high-level magical items from the Church of the Mother Goddess of the Earth and the Church of the God of Artisans give the statue itself a strong magical power. This is how it can achieve its current effect, but in the short term, this is also the limit." Lucy

En explained in detail.

After Douglas, Fernando, and Hathaway collected first-hand information and left, Natasha looked at the dwarf statue curiously: "I never knew you had such a serious problem with your aesthetic taste. You actually like bald heads and draw pictures.

Wearing patterns..."

As for the dwarves, she could understand, after all, this was the God of Steam targeting the dwarves.

Lucien chuckled and said, "The name of this dwarf statue is 'Yuri.'"

"Yuri... what's the connection?" Natasha asked in confusion.

High tower.

Samantha sat alone in her exclusive study, looking at the air in front of her quietly, as if there were deep or shouting sounds echoing in her ears.

"There may be a problem with determinism here. Some processes are probabilistic and irreversible..."

"Determinism must die..."

For this period of time, this sentence has been haunting her like a nightmare, leaving her hesitant, confused and depressed. The most frightening thing is that some of the experiments currently completed seem to illustrate the uncertainty and probability of microscopic particles.

She raised her hand, pressed her forehead, and whispered: "Arcane requires life, so determinism must die?"

The voice was full of bitterness and resistance.

Dong-dong-dong, she heard rapid footsteps and a series of footsteps outside, so she opened the door and saw tower magicians gathering into a certain room.

"What's wrong?" Samantha saw her good friend Rachel.

Rachel's expression was confused and painful: "Haven committed suicide..."

"Suicide?" Samantha asked in surprise. "Suicide? Not death by blowing your head off, but suicide?"

There are currently no experiments of sufficient importance to confirm uncertainty and probability, and all thought experiments that have been conceived cannot refute them. Therefore, even if Harvin is a firm supporter of determinism, it will not be affected in his cognitive world.

of stability.

This also leaves enough buffer time for yourself and others.

"Perhaps the development of arcane magic has made him despair..." Rachel said softly.
