Main God Creation Rules

Page 155

In ancient times, numerous ancient star systems have surrounded this world, endowing it with a rich variety of forms and life.

In modern times, it connected two realms that were in no way inferior to this world: the "Celestial Realm" and the "Purgatory." Along with the unprecedented war, there was also the elimination and evolution of species.

While this process of elimination and evolution may seem cruel in the short term, it is necessary from a global perspective. For one thing, the ever-growing demand for magic power—active energy—from the numerous superior races existing in this world cannot be met by a single closed world. Therefore, it is essential to acquire more external sources of active energy (connecting more worlds) or to reduce internal losses (reducing the number of superior races).

Lin Yi's understanding of the world was based on this cognition, until he noticed the occurrence of a certain phenomenon.

—The gate to "Purgatory" has been closed.

Almost every individual has their own interpretation of why the gate to "Purgatory" was closed. Some say it's because "Purgatory" was at a disadvantage in its war with "Celestial Realm" and closed the gate to protect itself. Others believe that "Celestial Realm" used despicable means during the war to forcibly block the passage from "Purgatory" to this world in order to seize victory. There are even rumors that "Celestial Realm" has secretly opened a second passage directly to "Purgatory" and defeated it.

But whatever the real reason, the fact that "Purgatory" withdrew from this great battle without warning is undeniable.

If it were only this, it wouldn't have aroused Lin Yi's suspicion. The problem was that after "Purgatory," one of the two main participants in this great battle, was defeated, "Celestial Realm" did not take this opportunity to complete the procedures required of a victor, which he found incomprehensible.

In the short term, it is normal for the victors to plunder the losers, but if one wants to completely dominate and rule a world, mere plunder and destruction will only bring greater resistance and hatred.

Any aggressor with a modicum of sense should understand that the best way to conquer a world with immense potential is not through oppression and exploitation, but by establishing new rules that benefit themselves on the basis of victory, and using various means of gain to subdue the native species—just as the Main God Space treats those invading worlds.

However, the actions of the "celestial realm" were completely different.

They merely wreak havoc on the world, and even after their only threatening "enemy" disappeared, they never ceased their actions that only intensified hatred, constantly spreading war, hatred, and malice throughout the world...

All of this seems to be a conflict between the world and "oneself".

For a considerable period of time, Lin Yi was genuinely puzzled by this situation and could only use the "Deathwing" avatar to move around and search until he discovered a strange individual among the goblins.

Compared to ordinary goblin species, that particular goblin species possessed significantly stronger thought fluctuations, and these strong thought fluctuations drove it to do something that an ordinary goblin species would not do: launch a war against the machine species.

It's easy to imagine what would happen if the goblin race launched a war against the machine race, which has the potential for infinite evolution in battle, and was unable to defeat them with overwhelming power in a short period of time.

Based on this, Lin Yi attempted to change his mindset.

If the goblin whose thinking was disturbed was not acting with the goal of "defeating the machine race" but rather with the ultimate goal of "helping the machine race", then its rash attack would not be inexplicable.

The unique racial characteristics of the Machina species give them unlimited potential for evolution in war. However, their lack of autonomous action leaves this potential idle and wasted. In such a situation, as long as an active attacker emerges, the rise of the Machina species will become inevitable, both subjectively and objectively.

Following this line of thought, the object that interfered with the goblins' thinking must be related to the machine race. This was confirmed after learning about it from Kainas, the forest god and creator of the forest race.

—Before the gate to "Purgatory" closed, there was contact with the Machine Race.

Naturally, Lin Yi's suspicions turned to "Purgatory," which had already been defeated in this great war. According to all the current clues, the closure of the "Purgatory" gate was definitely not caused by the actions of "Celestial Realm" or any person in this world. Furthermore, "Purgatory" was not unaware of the closure of the gate; rather, it had foreseen it beforehand, which is why it contacted the Machine Race, which possesses strong evolutionary potential, in advance and assigned this race a crucial task, such as eliminating the most powerful god race in "Celestial Realm," the God of War, Altshu.

In order to continue to improve the script of "Purgatory" and to obtain more information that has not yet been presented in the script, Lin Yi specially arranged for Neltharion to "visit" the origin of the Machina before the final battle. After a large number of Machina links were destroyed, the "special individuals" were also forced to be activated ahead of schedule. So far, it has been in Lin Yi's plan, but it completely derailed after the start of the final battle.

In the script of "Purgatory," the "pawn" who was supposed to be responsible for destroying the most powerful god species in "Celestial Realm" did not act according to the script. Instead, it continued to follow a human and do some meaningless things. Forced to face the dragon of this powerful god species, it could not do anything even if it tried its best and could only helplessly face the fate of defeat.

Lin Yi had no regrets about the outcome. After all, no plan is perfect, and a slight oversight in any link can lead to collapse. He had encountered this situation countless times before. But just when Lin Yi was about to give up on "Neltharion" completely, this god-like being said something that could not be ignored.

“You haven’t answered my question yet, little one.”

Same place, same people, only the dialogue and time are different.

The upper claw, which had disappeared into the "void," gripped the body of the divine being. Ignoring its struggles, the "dragon" asked, "You, come from 'Purgatory'?"

Crossing the Lines of Faith: Chapter 399 The Third "Fragment"

The dragon's clasped claws seemed to be resisting, a force that the "dragon" could not stop.

Realizing this, the "dragon" simply released him. Perhaps noticing that such behavior was meaningless, Alsht, who had finally managed to break free, did not continue to move away. Instead, he filled the surrounding space with his immense divine power and gave the "dragon" a maniacal smile: "It has been a long time since this world has seen anything that can threaten me."

The "dragon" remained unmoved, merely extending its retracted claws once more.

Just before the space ahead collapsed and warped again, "it" caught the maniacal laughter of the divine being before it: "Defeat me, and I'll tell you—"

The unvented power crushed the asteroid beneath its feet, forcing the "dragon" that had been standing above it to move aside and search among the shattered planetary debris for the still-laughing figure.

This was destined to be a futile effort. Even with the dragon's dynamic visual perception, which was almost at the top of the food chain, it was impossible to capture a tiny object moving at nearly one-tenth the speed of light. The only thing you could do was to chase after the planetary debris that was constantly collapsing and shattering due to the movement of the gods.

In less than half a second, the "dragon" moved more than 300,000 kilometers away. In a moment, the distorted shadow, carrying enough power to shatter a planet, crashed into the "dragon." Just before Alshte saw the "dragon" shatter into pieces, a sense of déjà vu washed over him, and the scene before him changed dramatically.

The terrifyingly high temperature that was everywhere was burning the body of the divine being, a temperature that far exceeded what the "dragon" could control. The divine being struggled desperately and only managed to escape from that terrible situation after paying a heavy price of losing one-third of its divine power. After getting away for a distance, it turned around and saw a dazzling star in front of its eyes.

"It seems this isn't enough for you."

Turning around again, the "dragon" that should have been some distance away was now in front of Arthit, its claws outstretched from its distorted face.

"Neltharion—"

Halfway through the sprint forward, the scene before my eyes changed again.

This time it wasn't high temperature, but gravity.

A power beyond the limits of Althus's comprehension bound every part of its body.

Because of this body, which is theoretically of infinite mass and composed entirely of divine power, Arthut possesses the ability to move across the astral plane at one-tenth the speed of light. However, at this moment, it truly felt "weight," and an "weight" that was utterly irresistible.

Even burning divine power, he could only barely stand up. Apart from that, he couldn't even escape this place at one-tenth the speed of light, let alone leave the "ground".

After all, this is a "place" where even the speed of light would be dragged and captured, making escape impossible...

In less than half a minute, when more than 90% of Artshite's immense divine power was burned away, a familiar sense of disorientation washed over him. When he could see clearly again, he was already inside the "dragon's" closed claws.

"Isn't it exciting, little guy?"

----------segmentation----------

Azriel waited anxiously.

After easily annihilating the chaotic coalition forces along with his own soldiers, this Skywing did not blindly fly towards the Astral Plane.

Numerous facts demonstrate that even the Skywing race, created with the ultimate goal of "god-slaying," cannot truly contend with the divine race. When facing weak or poor divine races like the God of Forging, they can barely exert some restraining effect, but when facing powerful divine races, they are utterly ineffective.

Clearly, the divine being capable of fighting Alshte, who was known as the strongest divine being, for so long was definitely not the weak divine being she was familiar with.

No matter how anxious she was, all Azriel could do was wait...

Then, she got what she was waiting for.

【Walk! 】

—The last message passed down by the Creator.

Before my consciousness could react, a twisting, deafening roar reached my ears.

The magic circle that was instinctively activated withstood the atmospheric impact, which was equivalent to a high-level spell. As the dust that was stirred up was blown away by the storm, a bottomless "claw mark" appeared on the ground, while the two Skywing creatures that should have been nearby were completely silent.

Just as Azriel opened her mouth, a second "claw mark" was imprinted on the ground.

The third……

the fourth……

Each deep rumble carried away one or two Skywing races. Less than half an hour ago, the superior races held the power of life and death over the lower races, but now they found themselves in the same position. Faced with an unknown attack, they couldn't even know the attacker's face, location, or method of attack, let alone resist. The only thing they could do was desperately flee towards the gate in the sky that radiated holy light—

"Click"

When they were less than ten meters from the boundary gate, a scene that filled every Skywing species with despair appeared.

Behind the distorted and collapsing space, a dragon claw covered in jet-black scales reached out, as if to tear open the connection between the two worlds and plunged straight into the other side of the gate. Then, amidst a series of sounds like shattering glass, they watched the gate crumble and disintegrate little by little... until it disappeared without a trace.

Affected by the tearing of the world barrier, the dragon claws that extended from the twisted and collapsed area also developed fine cracks. After retracting, it did not continue to pursue the few remaining Skywing species, but let them flap their wings and flee in a sorry state.

After a while, the "dragon" emerged from the expanding collapse in the sky, glanced around at the chaotic scene, and then turned its attention back to the area where the sky gate was broken.

"...Not here."

Space collapsed again, and the figure of the "dragon" appeared on the other hemisphere of the planet. This time, what appeared in front of "it" was another complete door, but unlike the gate to the "celestial realm", what surrounded this door was not a holy radiance but a filthy blood light, and this door was tightly closed.

As the dragon gazed at the closed door, a strange light gradually appeared in its eyes…

"Lord God."

The main god space.

Experiment file number 0001.

Observation subject—Dragon Spirit Deity (secondary faith manifestation individual)

Short-term observations show that there are certain differences between the "divine species" that manifest in the current world's objective reality through the faith provided by a large number of reincarnators and those that manifest in the current world's objective reality through the faith of a large number of dragon spirit species. To distinguish between the two, the "dragon spirit species deities" born from the faith provided primarily by reincarnators are referred to as first-stage faith manifestation individuals (state: fallen), while the "dragon spirit species deities" born from the faith provided primarily by dragon spirit species are referred to as second-stage faith manifestation individuals (state: reborn).

The study of the operational rules and origins of the "belief in deities" system is of great observational value.

Observation subject—Dragon Spirit Deity (secondary faith manifestation individual)

Based on information extracted from a small number of dragon spirit individuals, individuals with secondary faith manifestations possess some of the characteristics of individuals with primary faith manifestations, and their properties manifest in varying amounts externally depending on the total amount of faith. This can perhaps be determined by increasing the number of dragon spirit individuals who are believers.

Instill new knowledge into individuals manifesting secondary faith: seek out more dragon spirits.

Observation subject—Dragon Spirit Deity (secondary faith manifestation individual)

Secondary faith manifestations possess the ability to distort the external perceptions of a small number of lower-level life forms. The applicable subjects for observation include Dragon Spirit No. 1 (codename: Fafnir).

In the understanding of Dragon Spirit Seed No. 1, the existence of the secondary faith manifestation individual is not much different from that of the primary faith. However, according to the understanding of the external "God Seed", the former "Dragon Spirit Seed God" did not exist alone, but was composed of multiple objects (about three), and they fell one after another in the great war.

It has the value of a test.

The observed behavior pattern has changed significantly. Based on the results of external information gathering, it can be determined that this is not due to a change in the beliefs or cognition of the reincarnators or dragon spirits, but perhaps due to interference from unknown factors.

Conclusion: Retain the observation data.

The observed object's behavior patterns began to exceed expectations, and an unknown source of interference was discovered during the twenty-seventh thought test.

When tracing their origins, a large number of unknown dragon spirit species were discovered, which were different from the first (codename: Fafnir), the second (codename: Lucoa), the third (codename: Thor), and the fourth (codename: Kanna).

Instill a new direction for action into individuals manifesting secondary faith: to find the unknown dragon spirit species.

The observers found the source of the interference, which was quite unexpected: a dragon spirit that had joined the Order faction after the last great war.

There are more than twenty of them, and the vast majority of them retain information about the individuals who manifested faith in the first stage. The "faith" generated based on this information interferes with the behavior patterns of the individuals who manifest faith in the second stage.
