Chapter 100： Religious history and motivation (1/2)

In the year after the magic tide broke out, all believers lost the ability to listen to the revelation of the gods, not only the low-level priests and priests, but even the bishops of the various denominations, even the pope and the holy seat. Lost this ability.

Of course, even under normal circumstances, human beings cannot directly hear the voice of the gods. The so-called "listening to the gods and revelations" actually means that the devotees are approaching in the process of sincere prayer, sacrament, and covenant, due to their own spiritual state. The "spirituality of the gods" of the gods, so that you can hear a little whispering, whispering whispers that will echo directly in the minds of believers and form a long-lasting and indelible "spiritual mark". And this spiritual imprint will in turn change the spirit of believers and bring them closer to the "spirituality of God", which is the main way for the priests of this world to advance and become stronger.

Because those vague whispers do have the power to change the human spirit and make mankind stronger and purer, it is sublimated from the ordinary hallucinations of illusions and is seen as a sacred phenomenon by the clergy.

However, in the year of the magic tide, all people who believe in God cannot hear this "whisper from the gods". They are horrified to find that no matter how they pray, how to hold the ceremony in strict ways, their gods No more response is made, just as the gods collectively disappeared.

Because of the loss of grace, in that year, all the clergymen could not get promoted, and there was no newcomer in the shallow believers and ordinary people who could master the magic, even the baby born in that year. Afterwards, it was proved that there is no such thing as a magical talent.

If the situation continues to deteriorate according to that trend, it is hard to say what kind of future the gods and believers on this continent will have, but it is like the last hope in despair. People find that the mastery of the mastery has not expired. The power is slightly weaker than before, but at least the priests who have become official priests before the magic tide can still use the magical skills, and these can still use the divine gods to maintain the churches that were crumbling at that time, even though In this way, many small sects did not support it at that time, and disappeared into the waste soil in the process of people fleeing from the Gangster Empire.

Gao Wen remembers that the leaders of the major sects had conducted more than one secret talk and tried. People have given up their prejudice and hostility. Just like the ordinary people who walked side by side in the magic tide, the clergymen no longer care about their own. Faith and historical hatred, and instead gather together to try to find a solution to the problem. Later, several large sects represented by the **** of light, the **** of war, and the three gods of fertility finally made some progress. After several emergency meetings, the leaders of several sects were on the eastern border of the Ogure tribe. At the top of the "Front of the Ancestors", an attempt was made to communicate the gods. The attempt was a closed-door meeting. Even Gao Wen Cecil did not know how to go through it. He only knew that the leaders of the sects had announced from the mountain. The gods have lowered the new metaphor, revealing that all people give up the dispute, unite for survival and the magic tide is precisely the disaster caused by all kinds of stupidity of human beings.

The various sects signed the agreement of the ancestors' peaks, called the "sacred covenant", and announced that they would abandon all disputes of faith. The sects are no longer opposite, and will do their utmost to continue the human civilization. It seems that this is really the move. The gods were pleased. In the second month after the signing of the Holy Covenant, the anniversary of the whole year after the eruption of the magic tide, the gods once again ignored humanity.

Believers can hear the voice of the gods again.

This is a historical event that Gao Wen knows that leads to the fact that the various sects on this continent are now established but maintain a relatively peaceful situation.

This historical event has changed a lot:

It has ended the disputes between the various faiths in the mainland, and has united the priests of the various sects to help human civilization resist the magic tide and rebuild their homeland. However, some overly stubborn sects cannot accept this fact. They chose to fall. It is an enemy of all the sects that have signed the "sacred covenant" and has become a variety of distorted heretical beliefs. It has gradually evolved into the world's most horrifying dark organizations. The magic techniques they use are also called " Dark magic"...

To this day, those fallen and distorted mad believers are still one of the most chilling shadows in the world.

As a person with a logical and normal mind, Gao Wen certainly has a high evaluation of the "sacred covenant". Although he does not believe in religion, he appreciates those who have faith to lay down disputes, unite and continue in the moment of crisis. The efforts of civilization no matter whether the effort is due to God's command.

But he also knows that for a human race that is short-lived (relative to elves), even a holy covenant is not permanent.

Now seven hundred years have passed, although the covenant of that year was still engraved on the cornerstone of various sects, but like the "brother agreement" that has long since disappeared between Tifeng and Ansu, the people have gradually forgotten those ancestors. The meaning of the covenant concluded at the foot of the mountain.

Although many gods in the mainland today still maintain a peaceful situation, in fact, there have been quite a lot of tit-for-tat and exclusion and squeezing in private. Some sects with a large deviation from the doctrine have even reached a situation where they have not declared a war.

After all, no one can really hear clearly what God is saying to himself, even if it is the Pope's Pope, what he hears from the gods is nothing but a vague whisper, and the blur of God's revelation is given. Space for people to play
