The woman holding the cup is the mother of all the "children in the cup".
The reason why the "children in the cup" all have blood-colored pupils is precisely because the woman holding the cup has blood-colored pupils - this is proof of heredity. It transcends the limitations of blood and space and takes effect forcefully.
——That's right.
In the "child in the cup" ceremony, although only one party's genetic genes are invested, the child in the cup is not the offspring of one person.
Regardless of whether a man or a woman uses this ritual, the mother of the child in the cup is the cup-holder, and the provider of genetic genes is the father.
Although he does not have the blood of a god, nor is he a descendant of a god, the child in the cup can still be regarded as the heir of the girl holding the cup. Because the cup held by the girl holding the cup is her uterus, the process of "gestating from the cup" itself is
It can be seen in the ceremony as "conceived by the cup-bearing woman".
Therefore, in this empty cup, with nothing added except blood, a live baby can be born directly.
The god represented by the "Heaven Chariot Driver" has died, and all traces she left in the world should be eliminated.
But because the "Light of the Sky Crane", that is, Annan will be born in the future, nothing related to the Sky Crane has been erased.
The existence of the Pillar of Truth can span the timeline... although "can" does not mean "inevitable".
Just like the mysterious lady who is the god of rituals, she was born through rituals.
As the god of desire, the cup-holder also became a god because of her desire for knowledge; in ancient times when there was no god of machinery, the elves also created curse-powered machines; Mr. Yao himself is light, but he is also light.
One day.
Among the elves at that time, there was a genius ritualist - after they obtained the Holy Grail, they suddenly thought that there could be a bug here.
The Holy Grail is a relic of the "Chariot Driver" and a symbol of her authority.
Just like "the mother of the child in the cup counts as the girl holding the cup"... But if the Holy Grail is used to hold the "Child in the Cup" ceremony, the concept of the "Holy Grail" as the place where the ancient gods were conceived will overwrite the "cup" of the girl holding the cup.
". Then the mother of the "Son of the Holy Grail" can be counted as the "Driver of the Heavenly Chariot".
But in the Third Age, the "Heaven Chariot Driver" was dead and Annan was not yet born.
At that time, the "Crane" became a rule that acted according to the existing logic, so it was "an equal, noble and ruthless thing". This description actually implies that the "Crane" is a program with high weight!
And since the Heavenly Wheel is just a program, it can be understood that "the power of the Heavenly Wheel is controlled by the world itself." In other words, the hand of the Heavenly Wheel is the will of the world itself... Then the "Son of the Holy Grail" can also be used in the ceremony.
Considered a "son of the world"!
——What a complete circle.
But it seems very reasonable...
That's why Endymion said that he has the blood of the chariot driver, and Annan is its mother...
Because the blood of the Heavenly Chariot Master flows in its body, and now this identity belongs to Annan!
Annan has completely understood where the curse energy technology comes from.
The reason why the "umbilical cord ceremony" in which the elves extract the magic energy can be established based on ritual logic is because the "Heavenly Car" was not yet born at that time, and the special properties of these "sons of the Holy Grail" made them children of the world!
It's like... after a leader of the HR department resigned, the rules she established were still inherited, which is the so-called "sublimation ceremony"; but her seal was stolen and continued to be used, which is the so-called
"Son of the Holy Grail"!
In other words, Annan doesn't need to think about how to cut off the curse at all.
As long as Annan can complete the sublimation ceremony normally and officially become a "Heavenly Car", then this buggy "umbilical cord ceremony" of extracting the blood of the world will be automatically lifted.
As the BUG is fixed, those sinners who use curse power will no longer exist!
"...So that's what it is."
Annan murmured.
He also already knew who this "Heaven Chariot Driver" was.
The gods who died in the First Age are related to the road to sublimation, and their ritual existence can even cover the "Er in the Cup" ritual of losing the girl holding the cup...
Although the priesthood and name of the "first-generation Sky Chariot Driver" are still unclear, Annan can know from this title alone that this unknown goddess is the god who caused the end of the First Age.
It was because of a certain lack of truth after her death that the devil was born. Before her death, even if the erosion rate was full, she would not become a devil, or there might be no such thing as erosion rate at all.
However... the birth of the devil did not directly lead to the end of the First Era.
Will Annan know about this...or Zhi Ji revealed part of the secret to him.
He asked Endymion carefully.
Combined with the elf librarian who answered all questions, Annan finally had an idea of what happened in the past:
In the Age of Gods, there was no concept of "god" at all.
Just like the elves, centaurs, and Yaserans all call themselves "humans"... In their opinion, other races "don't look like humans".
The elves called them "lords" at that time, the centaurs called them "living pillars", the dragons called them "kings", the giants called them "elders", and the bugs called them "winged ones"
"...Also there are titles such as "Yiaoshu" and "Guardian"? Each race has its own name, which is very confusing.
And after the end of the First Age? The birth of gods became difficult. And some people, even several "lords", "kings" and "winged ones" abandoned the truth and degenerated into extremely powerful demons.
.
But at that time, demons did not initiate conflicts with other races. They were just a natural mutation. The word "demon" did not have a derogatory connotation. It just meant "horned person" in the Elvish language.
Although demons have become impulsive and have strong desires, they are not stupid. They also know that they cannot abuse the blood of the world. Once it is used excessively, the world will collapse...
...So they gathered together, and under the leadership of a certain mature dragon who had not yet grasped the truth at that time, they went to other worlds to plunder the blood of the world.
——If I can’t use what’s in my own world, then I can just grab what others have, right?
The "Philosopher's Stone" was taken from the virtual world in the first expedition? The virtual world also completely collapsed because this large piece of the Philosopher's Stone was taken away - where did this Philosopher's Stone go?
I know...but since then, the sublimators of this world have had the power of "elements" to use.
That dragon also received a book of truth called "Ode to Flint" because of its victory in that expedition, and was thus made a god and given the name "Father of Flint".
How long did it take after that? It seemed like some huge disaster had happened.
Twelve guardians from different races and different positions, but with very important priesthood, were forced by that incident to gradually unite together.
They discussed using the Book of Truth "Chronology" as a sacrifice and the whole world as a ritual plate. They set aside three hundred and sixty days of December to define the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. In this way, they constructed the "Ritual of the True God"
? The administrator of all truth is collectively called "God".
The original purpose was to use the "holy month" method to protect the important gods. Later, as more and more important gods became more and more important, the ceremony was improved a second time, adding the concept of "following the gods".
"Immortal" is divided among other gods.
At the same time, they established three rules: gods can only be worshiped and cannot personally guide or kill mortals; conflicts between gods should be handled by agents as much as possible; while gods still have temples, they cannot be killed by other gods.
In this way, the difference between humans and gods is divided, and the struggle to control the world is within a certain range.
In the beginning, even demons believed in gods.
Then something happened.
The demons from all races who have embarked on the path of depravity gathered together under the leadership of a certain brother of Suifu and tried to form a new political power - they divided the demons into a very strict racial class and hierarchical system. Between the same rank
Elders are respected, and military merit is respected among peers.
Those who are unwilling to embark on the road of depravity will be excluded from the lowest level in their circle of influence; and once they become demons, they will become inferior people in the same class because they "entered the industry late".
...However, elves cannot embark on the path of corruption.
Because they were born with pure souls, they were at a disadvantage in the kingdom of demons. So the elves fled as a family and headed to the legendary inaccessible and inextricable desert under the protection of the two righteous gods...
The centaurs also followed for some unknown reason. There were also a few dragons and giants who were unwilling to surrender.
Because once the demons entered the desert, they would suffer seven times the damage. So they were stopped.
Originally, the elves planned to live in the desert until the end of the world...at least until the emperor's rule was over before returning.
But at the end of the Second Age...the desert gained life and turned into a living desert that swallowed everything, and began to spread rapidly around.
They then fled westward in great embarrassment - at that time, the elves did something that even the demons would not do.
——Stealing the blood of the world.
This move alarmed the other ten righteous gods, who rushed over to see what happened. In the more than a hundred years since they left, the demons who had escaped from their custody split into many forces...
Conquer each other in the world east of the desert.
Later, the demons were only willing to believe in the three righteous gods - the Red Knight, the Cup Girl and the Sui Father, who were worshiped by the "Blood Coal Church".
On the contrary, many false gods who escaped from Yasselan struggled to cross the living desert that can even be swallowed by gods...ignoring the laws of the Holy Trinity and began to form their own forces.
Compared with the peace on the Yasselan continent, the old continent east of the desert is in the midst of a long, never-ending separatist war.
It was not until the end of the Third Era that this war ended due to the Disaster of the Era. But the knowledge belonging to the devil has been nailed into the field of mysterious knowledge by the mysterious lady, and the Yaslan people can no longer obtain it through rituals.
Information about "hometown", so I don't know what happened... The two worlds were separated.
At that time, the Yaslan people to the west of the desert encountered invasion and colonization by the Osers, and became tattered because of the elves' abuse of spell power; the world to the east of the desert experienced a long thousand-year war, and the entire world was submerged.
In blood and fire.
——And all of this was directly or indirectly caused by the death of this "Heaven Chariot Master".
