Age of Adepts

Pretending to be a follower of the God of Wisdom?

Greem has never had such an idea.

If the gods can be divided into ranks, then the god of wisdom, Hierro, can only be regarded as a weak god, barely stronger than those weak gods who have just been promoted to gods.

Greem, as a Tier 4 wizard, was placed in the world of the gods, no matter what, he was a demigod!

There is only one step between a demigod and a god...

Although the strengths of the two sides are far apart, in terms of mentality, it is really difficult for Greem to deceive his true heart. It is still possible to respect the gods, but you have to believe in them devoutly. This is something that Greem cannot do even if he kills him.

The wizards' research on the gods has reached a certain extreme. Although the latter is a god in front of ordinary people, in the eyes of the wizards, they are just a group of high-energy creatures who cling to their beliefs and parasitize on the plane. .

The so-called sacredness and the so-called evil in our mouths are actually just the external manifestations of some extraordinary power!

The gods have mastered extraordinary power, and use it to fool the world, brainwash believers in the way of "education" and "conversion", and make them repeat those specious "truths" and "justice" endlessly. In this process, what the gods get is the power of faith of the devout believers, and what the believers get is only a small amount of faith feedback.

In order to deceive believers for a long time, spread beliefs, and even walk around the world in the form of mortals, the gods personally created a church organization with a strict hierarchy. In this church organization, the thoughts of believers are restrained, and they communicate with the gods in their hearts according to the rituals and prayers left by the "saints" day after day, thus turning themselves into a belief node of the other party .

In order to prevent believers from being confused and thinking wildly, the gods will also severely crack down on science, art and progressive ideas everywhere, so that believers will always be in a state of ignorance with simple minds and simple thinking.

Even in order to stimulate the power of faith, the gods will deliberately provoke some secular wars, and use bloody and terrible wars to eliminate those unqualified believers and replace them with new blood...

However, in a world ruled by the gods, those spellcasters who possess extraordinary power will naturally be rejected and attacked. So in many places, wizards, mages, and arcanists are inherently incompatible enemies with the gods!

It is precisely because the research and understanding of the gods is too thorough, to want wizards to condescend to believe in the gods... This is simply a great shame!

"Besides becoming a follower of Hierro, you have no other way for me to study this holy book of wisdom?" Greem muttered dissatisfied.

"Drip, the Holy Book of Wisdom is actually a book of faith that records the origin of the gods and the characteristics of divine power. If you want to analyze the content in it, you don't rely on the naked eye, but the experience of spiritual power... Change the frequency of your own mental fluctuations to match The divine power inside fluctuates, this is the only way to read this book!"

"If it's just changing the frequency of mental fluctuations instead of changing the faith, I can still accept it. Chip, there are no bad consequences for doing this, right?"

"Hey, after changing the frequency of mental fluctuations, the main body's thoughts will be infected by the divine power in the Holy Book of Wisdom... According to the current strength of the main body's spiritual power, as long as it does not exceed 27 minutes and 53 seconds, there will be no thought mutation... Read the Holy Book Finally, the main body needs a long time of deep meditation to counteract the infestation of the divine power of the holy scriptures..."

"Thinking variation? What kind of thinking variation?"

"It means that the subject accepts the divine power information stored in the scriptures, agrees with some ideas of the God of Wisdom, and becomes a pan-believer of the other party..."

Pan-believers are not true believers, but partial identification with the behavior and philosophy of a deity. Their beliefs are not firm, and can even be called extremely weak, and they are easily disturbed by the outside world and change their belief objects.

"Public believers? This doesn't seem to be so difficult to accept!" Greem rubbed his chin, hesitating a little.

"Drip, becoming a pan-believer is only the first step of divine power infestation. As the time and frequency of the subject's reading of the scriptures accumulate, the degree of belief will continue to deepen. Therefore, after reading, do deep meditation in time and get rid of the residual influence of divine power fluctuations. It is the most important thing!"

"Understood! Chip, when I start reading the scriptures later, remember to record and monitor the changes in my mental power. If there are signs of thought mutation, remind me in time and interrupt me!"

"Drip, the subject's order has been received...the subject's spirit is being digitized...real-time monitoring of mental dynamics has begun..."

With the guarantee of the chip, Greem finally let go of his worries and refocused on the first page of the holy scriptures.

God is omnipotent!

It was written in a strange language that Greem didn't know at all.

It stands to reason that Greem shouldn't have known this kind of gaudy, ghost-like alien writing. But what is surprising is that when Greem focused his attention on these words, their meanings naturally emerged in his mind like a book.

There is no need to interpret or identify them at all. From the moment he saw them, Greem naturally understood their meanings!

Greem was not surprised by this.

Because most high-level witchcraft tomes also have this effect.

Therefore, it is not the eyes but the spirit to interpret such books!

Greem stared at this short line of text, and his spirit was like breaking into a strange fantasy, and was suddenly pulled into another world. In that world, Greem was like a completely transparent invisible man, following a god, witnessing the other party's divine power, gathering the matter of the plane, and using his endless stalwart divine power to create a plane from scratch. created.

On the first day, the gods cast the 'creation magic'.

Countless tiny but real strange substances rolled out from all over the endless sea of ​​stars and gathered together...

On the second day, the gods created the plane world.

The gods used divine power as a glue to condense these tiny particles together, creating a plane continent and a vast ocean for plane creatures to thrive.

On the third day, the gods isolated the energy storm.

After the plane world was created, the gods condensed their divine power, forming a huge bubble to wrap the plane world in it, isolating the influence of the endless star sea outside.

On the fourth day, the gods created light.

The moment the boundary membrane rose, the plane world was completely formed, but it was pitch black, and it was impossible to see anything. Therefore, the gods dragged the sun, moon and stars from the depths of the star sea, and placed them on the sky of the plane world.

On the fifth day, the gods created life.

Although the plane world is vast and boundless, it is just a seemingly thin glass ball in the hands of a great god. The god lay on the glass ball and blew a breath into the interior, and the bits and pieces of divine power floated inside the plane, where they landed, and combined with the substances there, they formed various animals and plants in various poses and with different shapes.

On the sixth day, the gods created intelligent races.

The plane world became increasingly active and colorful, and the gods created intelligent races according to their own shapes and sent them into the plane.

This is the leader appointed by the gods to the plane world!

On the seventh day, the deity became the patron saint of the plane world.

After doing all this, the gods began to sleep in order to restore their strength. And the power of the gods condensed into a human, elf or orc (depending on the race of the reader), and began to walk in the world, spreading civilization and spreading faith...

During the seven days of watching the god's creation, Greem's mental fluctuations gradually matched with that god's, and he realized some laws of heaven and earth that were difficult to touch at ordinary times from this act of opening up the world.

However, just as Greem was immersed in this majestic divine power of creating and destroying the world with one hand, the whole illusion suddenly began to collapse and shake because of a sudden alarm bell.

"Drip, warning, warning, the main body's thinking has been infected by alien energy, approaching the critical value... The awakening program starts immediately..."

Greem, who was condensed by spiritual power, looked around blankly, only seeing that the whole world was rapidly disintegrating and collapsing. The originally magnificent and bright sea of ​​stars suddenly burst, and the stars turned into burning fireballs and fell from the sky.

The whole world began to burn silently...

But in reality, Greem, who was sitting motionless in front of the stone table, suddenly held his head in his hands and began to cry loudly in pain. The out-of-focus eyes became radiant, flexible and alert again amidst the severe headaches.

Greem took a deep breath, and finally got rid of the almost real fantasy.

"Chip, start self-test, and provide me with a test report!"

"Drip, the mission has been accepted...the self-test begins..."

"Dididi, the self-inspection is complete...the self-inspection report is being generated..."

With a burst of light and shadow shaking, a light screen was projected in Greem's mind, and his mental state was quickly displayed on it.

Target creature: Greem (subject)

Target level: Level 4 Elementary

Target identity: semi-regular wizard (fire specialization)

Target basic data: strength 27 (11) constitution 32 (14) agility 18 (8) spirit 41 (29)

Target bloodline: star beast bloodline (unknown)

Target Physique: Chaos Physique

Target Trait: Heart of Rule

Target state: the original source is injured, in a state of weak soul (the physical attributes are weakened); the spiritual consciousness is infected by alien energy, and it is in the process of mutating thoughts...

Greem has been in a weak state of soul since he was injured and returned from the Morian plane, and the direct consequence of this was that his physical attributes all dropped. If it weren't for the support of a few powerful witch weapons on his body, he might not even be able to maintain the level of a fourth-level wizard.

But now, the injury was added to the injury, and the spiritual consciousness was infected by the divine power of the God of Wisdom.

Greem immediately left the secret room with a flame jump without hesitation, and hurried back to his residence to meditate deeply.

And when he left, the Holy Book of Wisdom turned to the second page automatically without wind...
