Chapter 1085: No longer sacred (1/2)

Hearing Gawain's words, Rosetta's eyes changed slightly, and his body leaned forward slightly: "It looks like you have an agreement with Tarrond?"

"Talrond Provisional Jury is currently the only legal governing body of Tarrond. The dragon under its rule is a legal citizen. The nations of the alliance and the dragon kingdom will mutually recognize the above-mentioned legitimacy. The dragon that obeys the control of the panel, does not abide by the alliance agreement, does not follow the rules of entry and exit, and undermines the territorial security of the alliance members, by default, has no citizenship of any country," Gao Wen said unhurriedly, "the threat of an out-of-control dragon is huge. There is a threat to us, and the same is true to Tarrond."

"...A terrible decision," Rosetta couldn't help but said, "The Dragon Race can make such a decision..."

"This is a race that we have never officially contacted. They have a different way of thinking and history and culture from ours. In some ways, the gap between them and us is even far greater than the gap between us and the elves," Gao Wen Nodded, talking about his impression of dragons, "Dragons far surpass other mortal races in terms of discipline, decisiveness, and emphasis on contracts, and their ability to deal with changes and learn new things may On the contrary, we need a period of time to get to know and adapt to these new friends, and they are the same."

Having said that, he paused, and continued very seriously: "This is what we must always consider after establishing the alliance. Our allies have crossed countries, races, and even known civilizations. Boundaries, everyone grew up in different cultural environments, and now we must be united in order to cope with the survival pressure of the entire world. We lack a historically tested integration process, so different ways of thinking will inevitably bring about big and small frictions. Even collisions. Such collisions cannot be solved by a major country with absolute force suppression. It first requires those countries with strong regional appeal to take the lead — and these countries themselves must agree."

"It seems that you have indeed considered this matter for a long time," Rosetta finally nodded after thinking deeply, "I agree with your point of view-Typhon is also willing to take its due responsibility in this matter. ."

Gao Wen laughed: "You see, open and honest conversations are still very useful."

Then he led directly to the next topic: "Next... Since we have just talked about the realm of the gods, we might as well extend this topic. We just ended a war against the gods, as the common leader of the victorious nation, I want to hear your views on this war."

"My view?" Rosetta showed a complicated and inexplicable wry smile, "My biggest view is that this kind of war is enough... Such a huge price, such a difficult battle, but our victory was only annihilated. A "spiritual phantom" created by ourselves, except for those fragments that can only be used as research materials, the God of War only left a piece of hot scorched earth-he will not bear any war reparations, you just mentioned the "victory" The word "Guo" is more like a kind of irony."

"...Dragons have also proved the same thing with their personal experience: It is not a good way to smash the shackles by positively killing gods. This price will become heavier with the development of civilization, and our current development The degree seems to have reached a stage where the price is too heavy, so if there is no choice, we'd better choose a safer path."

Rosetta raised her eyelids slightly when she heard the words: "Theocratic council?"

"Exactly it."

"... During this time I have heard the name more than once, and guessed its mechanism and function more than once. I can guess that you intend to use the gods' operating mechanism, but I can't think of how you plan to do it. ," Rosetta said, "You mentioned the concepts of universal literacy, church regularization, and ideological emancipation in general...so I have been thinking recently about what is the biggest commonality between them."

"The biggest commonality is'desanctification'," Gawain looked at Rosetta's eyes, he finally said the word, took it on the table, and placed it in front of a cooperative ally-but he In fact, he never thought that this collaborator would be Rosetta Augustus. At this moment, he could not help but want to sigh the wonder of fate. The development of everything in the world is always so unexpected, "Since we are all Knowing how the gods came, then we can figure out how they are'not' by doing a little reverse deduction."

Desanctification-Rosetta subconsciously squinted her eyes as soon as she heard the word.

He has been thinking about the core of the real operation behind Gawain’s huge project for a long time in the past. He has searched through all the books written by Gawain and read every sentence in it. He understands Gawain’s past Every decision he made in the past few years, and continued to summarize the principles from it, he has actually almost got a glimpse of the whole picture of the plan with regard to the theocracy-only a key word, a suggestive "key" is missing.

Now, he finally knew what the key was.

"Will this work?" He stared at Gawain with unprecedented solemnity, "Only relying on a desanctification?"

"Of course it is not just relying on such a method, but this will be the most influential factor," Gao Wen explained. "After analyzing the principles and operating mechanisms of the gods, we have determined that it is the'ideal trend' of a large number of believers. It is shaping and influencing gods for a long time, and the basis of this trend of thought is to "attribute everything to God"-it is precisely because everyone firmly believes that something is the authority of God, that will cause the corresponding authority to become a **** in reality. Then blocking this process is the key..."

"Blindness and ignorance led to the birth of this type of'thinking trend'," Rosetta took the initiative to continue the topic, "because people don't know the truth of something, and they have never heard of anything based on logic. The method of explaining the unknown, so they will naturally lead the answer to some existence that needs no explanation at all..."

"Yes, the key lies in'thinking', active'thinking'," Gawain nodded, "Only when thinking becomes a habit, people will first think of the logic behind it when encountering unknown areas, not Attributing all this to a sacred and omnipotent existence, and this kind of thinking...must be based on a certain degree of popularization of education, and at the same time, it needs to control the influence of the church."

"But the wise are always a minority," Rosetta tried to find the unrealizable aspects of this theory. "There is no perfect state where everyone can think rationally, and you can't guarantee that the popularization of education will have an effect on everyone. So ideal-it is even more likely that there will be countless foolish fools and countless boastful "tavern scholars" whose thinking has nothing to do with truth. The distance between true knowledge and their minds may be greater than the endless ocean. Broad, this kind of person..."

Rosetta showed a subtle look. Obviously he was not only deducing these results, but really had a deep understanding of them. Gawain immediately thought of why Rosetta’s description of these phenomena was so accurate— —

Because Typhon’s education popularization project is actually many years earlier than Cecil, although limited by "some detours", they are not as successful as Cecil in this matter, but for a long time The accumulation of ”has been enough for Rosetta to see many “unexpected effects” after the popularization of education.

Gao Wen laughed and tapped his fingers on the armrest of the sofa on the side: "Tavern scholar, oral expert, folk scholar, paper philosopher, a cup of wine can discuss runes with you, and two cups of wine can discuss mathematics with you. After three glasses of wine, they will have the confidence to explain the basic laws of our world to you, and even dare to question all the authority of the world."
