MTL - Sword of Daybreaker-Chapter 1536 then it will be fine

Separating the human nature and divinity of the gods allows the gods who can only operate completely according to the rules to gain the ability to act freely, so that they can protect the world for the last time in the event of a divine disaster - so that they can cut themselves off.

Self-suffering, this is the first and last freedom that Lady Night brought to the gods.

As Gaia said, this will be the best choice for all beings in the world - the divine disaster will be resolved by the gods on their own, no pressure will fall on the heads of mortals, and the fall of the gods will not leave any residual pollution, The mutual annihilation of divinity and humanity is far better than the cleansing caused by external forces. This world can safely resist the tide of magic. Whether it is the alliance or the theocratic council, there is no need to be distracted by the divine disaster.

But this was not the path Gawain envisioned.

Of course, Gawain's gloomy face did not hide from the eyes of the three goddesses. The eldest sister Gaia smiled gently, she knew what this mortal was thinking, but she shook her head: "This world is always like this, everything is like this. Things don't always develop as you want, but compared to the seasons of civilization that have passed away, we are lucky enough that we have finally found a way to continue, and have one more chance to do it before the end. Choice. Those before us didn't even have a choice."

Gawain still frowned, while Amber, who was beside him, seemed to have suddenly thought of something. She said with doubts in her tone: "But is it really a coming-of-age ceremony?"

Gawain's heart moved, and Amber's words seemed to remind him of something: "What do you mean..."

"Ms. Ye said that he is preparing a grand coming-of-age ceremony for the world, and the concept of coming-of-age ceremony is that mortals break free from the mental seal, gods break free from the shackles of belief, and both parties can achieve independent unbinding. The example of Tal Lund proves that This process must be completed by mortals themselves," Amber said, with doubts in his heart, "I remember you had a metaphor, saying that 'gods' are the 'inner demons' of all living beings in the world, so such things as inner demons can only rely on themselves The power of the gods can only solve it, then if the gods committed suicide... Is this still considered a mortal to rely on their own strength to pass the 'adult ceremony'? Isn't the power of the gods an external force?"

Gawain was stunned for a while. This question was really put before him for the first time—for all beings in the world, is the power of the gods considered an external force?

The first reaction, he felt that the answer was yes. The power of gods is of course an external force for mortals. After all, this is a blessing that came out of thin air. However, he soon shook his head and realized that he could not use " individual” perspective to judge this issue.

"From the perspective of individual mortals, the gods are an external force, just like a priest who is praying. Of course, his power comes from a **** who has conferred blessings, but from the perspective of the whole mortal..." Gawain frowned slightly. Mei, I felt as if I had caught something, "Gods are a 'phenomenon' in the process of the minds of mortal beings, they are products, and they are a link in the cycle, so the power of gods should not be regarded as external forces for mortals as a whole... Wait, it's not just that, there should be a higher level of perspective."

He stopped suddenly, a vague vein in his mind was quickly becoming clear, and Amber beside him also quieted down, as if he did not dare to interrupt Gawain's thinking, and after a few seconds, Gawain finally caught this Where is the key to the idea.

"We should jump out of the concept of mortals, from the perspective of civilization as a whole," he said while thinking, "Our civilization is composed of two parts, mortals and gods, and the concept of 'mitzvah' may not be limited to mortals. It should be placed on the top of the head, but should be placed on the civilization as a whole—Ms. Ye refers to the adulthood of civilization, not the adulthood of mortals. So of course the gods cannot be regarded as external forces under this framework, and the actions they make are internal civilization. The result of the operation of power!

"Think carefully about why Ms. Ye was able to advance this matter? It's because the Theocratic Council first completed the weakening of the chain - He only played a catalyst role in the whole process, and it was the reason why it might have taken decades or even hundreds of years. The process to be completed has been accelerated to within a year, but apart from Him, the 'catalyst' that did not directly change the direction of the process, every link in the rite of passage can still be regarded as an 'internal link' in the development of civilization! "

The earth goddess Gaia listened carefully to Gawain's analysis. She quickly understood the meaning of the other party, and understood that the "self-suffering" of the gods did not violate the conditions required for the rite of passage, but she did not understand that this pair of sisters What is the impact of that decision: "What you mean by this analysis is that the gods' choice to commit suicide is in line with the needs of the rite of passage..."

"No, what I mean is, we only need the final result of 'civilized adulthood', and the so-called 'self-disconnection' is just a means. As we all know, things like 'means' can have a lot of room for manipulation," Gao Wen frowned. Wrinkled tightly, his brain was running fast, "I want to confirm one thing first, Lady Ye asked you to kill your own divinity when the final disobedience occurs - He actually did not require you to be the same as your own divinity, right? ?"

Gaia was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly: "As long as the out-of-control divinity can be destroyed, the problem will be solved naturally, but the gods are now divided into two, the power of divinity is almost as powerful as the power of human nature, even the former Even stronger, we attack our own divinity, and the best result is to die together. If necessary, we may have to detonate the entire kingdom of God to intercept the completely crazy divinity... No matter what, we are sure It's impossible to survive."

"It's not important, as long as you confirm that the ultimate goal is to 'destroy divinity' and you're done," Gawain waved his hand, "then this is similar to the conclusion of the research on the history of theocracy, and even more consistent with the case of Tallond. You should also know that , the dragon **** has fallen, but the human part of the dragon **** has now been condensed and reborn, and this has no effect on the 'adulthood' of the dragon, so our goal is very simple - find a way to make your human half body in this 'civil war' Just survive."

When Amber heard this, she immediately stared at Gawain with wide eyes. Although she didn't know the other party's specific thinking, she was quite sure and certain that the other party was brewing a nasty and inappropriate behavior in his mind. After all, the other party's eyes at this time She was so familiar.

The three goddesses are obviously not used to this "out of the frame" way of thinking. Although they have now obtained the freedom of human nature, their long-term follow-up thinking still makes them less accustomed to looking for loopholes (from this aspect, they were not used to the gods.) Miermina, who can start actively exploiting the loopholes when she is stable, is really a crumb of the gods), Eve, the goddess of harvest, looked at Gawain suspiciously: "But this is almost impossible to achieve, the divine half-body is very powerful, in Lady Ye Among the opportunities created, the best result we can think of is to annihilate with it... Wait, do you want to send a mortal army into the kingdom of God in advance to 'help us'?"

Listening to Eve's guess, Flora who was beside Gawain shook her head before Gawain said a word: "That's not good, mortals can't step into the kingdom of God at will, without 'adult', ordinary people can step into the kingdom of God. In an instant, the body and mind will collapse in the spiritual pollution. Even if a few mortals who break free from the chains can come to the throne of God, this power cannot control the battle situation. And the reason why we choose 'suicide' is to not drag down the world. This is a A dead end..."

"Listen to me first," Gawain waved his hand and interrupted him unceremoniously, "Of course the army of mortals can't get in, but what about the weapons of mortals?"

The three goddesses were stunned for a while, and even the air under the entire golden oak tree froze for a moment, a strange silence enveloped the surroundings, Amber's heart was clear: she knew what Gawain wanted to do.

"Let me confirm one thing first," Gawain raised a finger, "Since you are now able to move freely, then you should be able to carry some 'things' from here to bring back to your own kingdom of God?"

"It's . Influence."

"Second thing," Gawain raised another finger, "the gods currently on the throne are pure divine half-body, those divine half-body can't think freely, right? They will only strictly follow The 'dogma' stipulated in the trend of thought operates, except that when the final disobedience occurs, they will run out of control and kill, and they do nothing else, right?"

"That's right," Gaia seemed to have finally turned the corner, and her gaze at Gawain became a little weird, "but I need to remind you that the premise of the divine half-body doing nothing is that it is not threatened. , if an act of definite hostility is made, even if it is a human half body that is homologous to it, it will immediately lead to its counterattack. In the perception of 'threat', the judgment of the gods is extremely precise and rapid, because the sects All have the idea of ​​'God is not to be offended'."

Gawain spread his hands: "Is it a threat before the bomb detonates?"

The three goddesses looked at each other, and Flora was the first to turn to look at Gawain after a while: "Then we need to verify it!"

"Then you wait here," Gawain was getting excited, "I'm going to find a bomb for you..."

As a result, before he finished speaking, he saw Amber suddenly pull out an iron lump from his arms: "Don't look for it, I have a grenade here - the equivalent may be a little smaller, but it should be no problem for verification. "

Gawain suddenly looked at the Shadow Assault Goose with a look of astonishment: "Why do you carry this with you?"

"I don't know," Amber akimbo, "I can't even remember when and where I got along—but then again, I'm a military intelligence chief, so it's not too much to carry some self-defense weapons with me?"

Gawain wanted to say that even as the Director of Military Intelligence, it was a bit too much to carry a grenade with him when he usually went out, but the other party really relieved his urgent need, so he didn't say anything, but took the iron lump that Amber handed over. , sent to Flora: "Look at this, can you feel hostility or 'offensive' from it?"

Flora bent down curiously and took this ingenious and interesting mortal artifact from Gawain. The grenade in her hand was as delicate as a pebble. She tossed this little thing over and over, thoughtfully. He said, "Is this the new weapon you have created over the years... It's interesting, it looks like a quiet lump of iron, with no edge and no blade, I don't feel any threat..."

As she spoke, she picked up the grenade and bit it to her mouth again—the youngest "sister" of the three goddesses obviously had a stronger curiosity and playful mentality than the two older sisters. Even Gawain did not expect the action, but with this bite, the precise trigger mechanism in the grenade was finally activated.

Almost as soon as the magic circuit was connected, the three goddesses all reacted. Flora took the thing out of her mouth and held it in her hand. A shimmering barrier was established in the blink of an eye and the grenade was tightly closed. package, and then a ray of light burst out in the palm of the goddess of spring—

After the muffled sound as if a balloon pierced in the water, Flora was taken aback, but she was only taken aback.

"I sensed an extremely weak 'threat' when it exploded, but I really didn't feel anything before that." The Goddess of Spring looked at the smoke gradually dissipating in her hands in surprise, and rubbed the still-hot iron filings, "But Its power is very small..."

"We have a powerful one," Gao Wen smiled, "the power is a hundred times, a thousand times, or even tens of thousands of times greater than it—and it's mass-produced."

The eyes of the three goddesses lit up almost simultaneously.

By this time, Gawain's sultry operation is actually quite clear - since the ultimate goal is only to "destroy the divinity", it obviously doesn't matter how it is destroyed. At present, the gods of the gods are in a pile on the throne. The answering machine that automatically answers prayers is still a few days away from losing control. During this "buffer period", it shouldn't be too much to do some "battle preparations" with the "human nature of God" who have become friendly forces? Before something like a bomb detonates, it's just a bunch of harmless iron lumps, so it shouldn't be too much to pile tens of thousands of tons of explosives around the half-body of the gods, right?

As for whether to talk about martial arts - it's all life and death, who TM tells you about martial arts, and let's talk about it, what is martial arts? This concept is advancing with the times. The next equivalent in the new era is Wude, and Cecil's "wude" has always been a lot...

It's just that Eve, the goddess of harvest, is obviously a little worried - as a **** in the field of agriculture, she obviously doesn't know much about Cecil's "virtue": "Can relying on these things really kill the divine half-body?"

"The God of War died on this (1/1), what do you think?" Gawain spread his hands, "If your divine half-body can fight again, will the God of War still be able to fight?"

Eve was stunned for a while, then said subconsciously, "That's fine."

"No, I still have a problem this time," Gawain shook his head, "Even with these preparations, the ability of the gods to recover is still a difficult issue - with the support of the world's ideological forces, even if we pile up more explosives, I'm afraid It is also difficult to kill your divinity in an instant, do you have a solution to this problem?"

"Please leave it to us," Gaia smiled gently and nodded slightly, "Since Ms. Ye instructed us to find a way to kill our divine half-body, it means that we have a way to prevent the recovery of the divine half-body— As an existence equivalent to the divine half-body, we can completely guide the thoughts from the world to ourselves in a short period of time. During this time, the divine half-body can be killed. But this process must be fast, Because over time, the thoughts of earthly beings will reshape us as gods."

Gao Wen exhaled slightly, and a smile appeared on his face: "Then it's fine."
