Chapter 101 There is a stupid way (2)
Devin's eyes lit up when he heard Eliza's words...
"Tell me what you want."
"Wait, I'll get this book."
Eliza got up from the bed, went to the closet on the side to find a piece of clothing to wear, and staggered out of the bedroom.
Taking advantage of this time, Devin opened the cabinet at the bedside and began to pour gold coins into it.
These gold coins are not safe to put in storage magic tools. Maybe one day, if he fights with a mage, the space inside will be destroyed by the rioter's magic power. It's really a place to cry. It's safe to exist here in Eliza.
Moreover, Eliza has achieved some success in alchemy, and if she wants to move up, she also needs a lot of gold coins to support her.
Devin poured out almost all the gold coins and jewelry in the space ring, leaving only more than a hundred gold coins for himself to respond to emergency.
At this time, a sound came from the bedroom door, and Eliza was about to come back.
Devin quickly lay back on the bed, thinking that nothing had happened, he was about to surprise Eliza.
As soon as he lay down, Eliza pushed open the door and walked in, holding a thick book in his hand. Dewen saw with sharp eyes that there were several gold-toned characters "The Road to the Master" on the cover of the book.
The alchemist belongs to the branch of the wizards, so it is not surprising to read this book, but this book looks very old and precious. Devin wonders where Eliza came from.
Eliza was very smart. Seeing the surprise on Devin's face, she probably guessed what he was thinking.
She sat back to the bed, patted the thick books, and said, "These are all hand-copied books in my family's collection, which are very precious. After the family's decline, all these books were sold by my brother to a redemption shop. Look at the cover, the pits are inlaid with gems, and these gems were all snatched away by the bookstore owner. As for the book itself, if the owner doesn't know the goods, I can only redeem the book. This book cost twenty gold coins."
So that's it, Dewen suddenly realized.
Eliza opened the pages and skillfully turned to one of them, pointing the above words to German.
Devin looked over and was attracted by just one look.
"If you want to explore the mysteries of the world, you must first strengthen your soul and strengthen your soul in order to bear the illumination of the light of truth."
Isn’t this what he wants? Dewen continues to read, and the following is an introduction to the method of strengthening the soul.
"Looking for truth and gathering faith. The more this faith is, the stronger the soul is, the more the mage can find the mystery of the world."
Dewen felt that he was scratched to the itchy place and continued to read, but he didn't introduce it below and turned to other mage fields.
"...this is gone?" Devin was disappointed.
It's like a peerless beauty untied her clothes in front of him. When she took off all her clothes, she realized that the other person was a human being. Is there such a trick?
Eliza said: "This is not a special practice book, so of course I won't introduce it carefully. But the method has come out, it is to gather faith!"
"It's too general." Devin spread his hands.
Everyone knows that fighting requires weapons, the key is how to use weapons. What Devin wants to know is how to gather beliefs?
Eliza turned the book to another page, pointed to the text above and said: "In the field of the wizard, the so-called god is the condensation of faith. The Lord of Light is the condensation of light, mercy, justice. The condensation of faith that drives away darkness. Belief in God is the condensation of glorious belief through the path of faith."
Eliza looked at Devin and continued, "According to the church, the Paladins are 'saints who bear the grace of God'. The so-called grace of God is the supreme glorious belief condensed by the Paladins. Their souls are therefore firm and unconfused and powerful."
Devin listened carefully, and he looked at Eliza, and saw that she looked focused. Her eyes were filled with the bright light of wisdom, and she was incomparable to the point of being beautiful.
Before he knew it, Devin was a little drunk, and he asked absent-mindedly: "It sounds simple."
"It's simple to say, but hard to do. There are very few who can pass all kinds of tests and hardships and persevere for a lifetime."
Eliza sighed and continued, "In the church, there was a knight. One day, he found that his only son had made a contract with a demon and had a sacrifice ceremony, and had completely fallen. According to the church dogma, according to the belief that the knight had adhered to throughout his life, his only son should be stolen and completely purified."
"What's the result?" Devin became serious.
"After the knight went through difficult choices, he kept his faith, sent his son to the stolen rack with his own hands, lit the holy fire that purified the soul, and watched his son die in a wail. He also made a great vow to cleanse all darkness with holy light. He went straight into the abyss, cut off the true body of the demon, and ended his obsession. After returning from the abyss, the knight was promoted to a paladin, his name was Hether Marton, 'Hand of Glory'!"
Following Eliza's words, Devin imagined the situation of the knight, imagining his psychological struggle at that time, on the one hand, on the one hand, on the one hand, on the one hand, on the one hand, on the one hand, on the one hand, on the one hand, on the one hand, on the one hand, on the one hand, on the one hand, his only son.
If Devin faced this choice, he would definitely rebel from the church and flee with his son. But the so-called glorious belief naturally collapsed, and there would be no subsequent "glorious hand".
After a long time, Devin sighed: "This knight is really cruel. This road is indeed difficult to walk."
Eliza continued: "The path of faith in the church is actually a shortcut. As long as you read the Covenant, regard the words of the Lord of Glory as the truth, and implement them without doubt. According to the church, it is to let the Lord of Glory enter your heart and control your heart so that you will not go into a missed path. German, you can try it."
After hearing this, Dewen could only smile bitterly. Isn’t this the most thorough brainwashing?
Moreover, there are ten precepts in the "Covenant", including one precept of abstinence, which includes obsession and greed, which is completely in conflict with his pursuit of life.
What he pursues is supreme authority, a peerless beauty, and becoming a great hero, just like the sword saints who are roaming with each other on the mainland.
According to the previous life, he could not break through the dust roots.
It would be better to kill him to come and practice according to the "Covenant".
This road will definitely not work. Even if Devin forces it to go up, he will definitely not be able to achieve great achievements and will end up in lifelong pain.
Not to mention anything else, the beautiful lady around him can't enjoy it. If you really do this, what's the point of living?
"Eliza, do you really want me to go to the church to practice hard?" Devin asked, hugging his soft body tightly.
The woman's face turned red and pushed Dewen: "Go to yours. What does it have to do with me when you go to practice hard?"
After pausing for a while, Eliza continued, "I have already told you about the way, it is nothing more than to gather beliefs and execute them without doubt. Then I have a common trick on the mainland."
This is what is useful. Devin became interested and said anxiously: "Tell me quickly."
Eliza first turned "The Road to the Mage" to the title page, which was painted with a curled dragon.
This painting is a bit rough and the style is exaggerated.
The dragon holds the sun with one giant claw and the other claw holds the moon with the other claw. Below it is a majestic mountain peak, with a majestic posture that looks down on the world.
There were a few short figures standing under him.
Dewen looked at the outlines of these figures carefully, but he didn't recognize the others, but there was a figure that looked very familiar. This was an old man with a scepter in his hand. He looked very similar to the statue of the Lord of Glory in the church.
This figure should represent the Lord of Glory. Needless to say, the other figures must also represent a certain god.
The person who painted this picture was so bold that he actually created such a painting with a obviously blasphemy style.
Eliza said: "This painting represents the ultimate pursuit of the wizard: Truth. The incarnation of truth is this giant dragon, the dragon of truth!"
"Where is the trick?" Devin is concerned about this thing now.
"It's in this picture." Eliza smiled and said, "The trick is to materialize beliefs. The master materializes the belief in pursuing truth into a dragon of truth that can be imagined. The church has created a personified glorious lord and worships it as an idol. There are also the god of war, the god of darkness, etc., which are the same truth."
"According to your statement, the dragon of truth. Gods do not exist, they are completely imaginary?" Devin said in surprise.
Among ordinary people, the Dragon of Truth may not be famous, but anyone who has been educated knows such a great existence.
The demons invaded ten thousand years ago. Many legends of the Dragon of Truth were left behind. In front of this great man, the glory of the Lord of Glory seemed dim.
"The Dragon of Truth of course exists. He is the ancestor of the dragon clan. But it is still somewhat different from the Dragon of Truth that the master believes in. The latter is spiritualized and infinitely improved, and has become a symbol of the belief in truth." Eliza said.
The concept is a bit confusing. But German can understand it.
"The Lord of Glory is also a virtual image condensed by the beliefs of many of his believers?" Devin asked.
"Maybe. The affairs of gods cannot be fully understood by mortals. Many truths have been buried by the dust of time. The true body of the Lord of Glory may be a powerful sacred domain in the history of the mainland who upholds glorious beliefs, or a great existence that really exists in the dark. Who can tell it clearly?"
There has never been a person stronger than a powerful person in the Holy Land on the continent.
Even if the great existences of other planes descend on this continent, their power will be weakened to the level of the holy realm due to the existence of plane barriers.
Therefore, it is meaningless to discuss whether the gods exist or not, at least it does not mean in this main material plane.
Devin nodded, thinking Eliza's statement was still very reliable.
However, Eliza also read the script according to her own understanding, and it sounds like that, but no one knows whether it is right or wrong.
Dewen was about to continue the discussion, but suddenly he heard a shrill wolf howl from the direction outside the city.
He was shocked and looked out the window and found that it was already dark, which means that the monster had arrived!
He remembered the agreement with the son of the Earl, Allen, and immediately stood up and prepared to go to the city wall.
It is still too empty to gather faith. What he wants to do most now is to become the new owner of the city!
This is what he wants.
"Derwin, be careful." Through Devin's previous narrative, Eliza also roughly learned about the situation outside the city.
"It's okay, stay well, I'm going." Devin put on his clothes, jumped out of the bedroom window, and quickly ran towards the city wall. (Your support on this site is my greatest motivation.)
