Chapter 963 The Reverberation Against the Tide
This is the "lock" between man and God.
The rules of this world are more cruel than Gawain imagined.
Now, he finally knew why Melita had such a painful reaction that was on the verge of losing control after she confided her secrets about the tide and the gods to him several times, and knew what the real mechanism was behind it - he only thought that It was the dragon gods who punished every dragon, but now he found out that even the high dragon gods were just prisoners under this set of rules.
The gods are both chains, prisoners, and even executioners at the same time, and this entire "prison" is built by mortals' own beliefs.
Seeing that Gao Wen was thoughtful and silent for a long time, the Dragon God asked with a hint of curiosity, "What are you thinking about?"
"I just thought about Melita - she said old things to me and now I know how much risk she took."
"Ah, Melita...is a child who left a deep impression on me," the Dragon God nodded, "it's hard to see her complex traits in a younger dragon clan—maintaining strong curiosity Heart, with strong creativity, keen on action and exploration, grew up in the cradle of eternity, but as alive as the creatures 'out there'... The jury is an ancient and closed organization, and its young members have appeared like this Change, it's really...interesting."
Are there any enterprising young members in the ancient closed panel...
However, Gawain suddenly thought of Melita's origin, and that she and her "colleagues" were all born from factories and laboratories, and were customized employees of the company.
He restrained his slightly drifting thoughts, and brought the topic back to about the Anti-Tide Empire: "Then, since the Anti-Tide Empire, the Dragon Clan has never intervened in the affairs of the outside world... But the aftermath of that incident seems to have been Continuing to this day? What's going on with that giant tower northwest of Tal Lond?"
"You already know a lot about the mechanism of the birth and operation of gods, so you must also realize that in this world, a strong enough group thought can be 'projected' on certain things, thereby causing the phenomenon of 'deification'," Long Shen said. He said in a hurry, "The giant tower in the northwest of Tallond... It was originally the legacy of the sailors, and it was also the 'initial enlightener' among the dragons who accepted the 'inheritance' when they built the Anti-Tide Empire. place."
"Accept the inheritance?" Gawain immediately grasped the word, "You mean to use the unique properties of the sailor's relic..."
The Dragon God nodded: "Yes. The Legacy of the Navigator has the power to record data, instill knowledge and experience, and influence the thinking ability of creatures. With proper guidance, it is possible to roughly choose what kind of knowledge and experience they will inherit. ——Dragon family used a period of time to do this,
The best scholars and thinkers of the Reverse Tide Empire were then brought to that tower.
"The experiments were fruitful, and they created a group of individuals with remarkable intelligence - although mortals can only get a small amount of knowledge from the legacy of the sailors, this knowledge is enough to change the course of a civilization's development."
Gawain had already guessed the future development: "So the next Tide Empire regarded that tower as a sanctuary given by God?"
"...The dragons did not expect the short-lived species to be volatile and short-lived, and they also misestimated the greed of the civilization at that time," the Dragon God sighed, "Those who returned from the tower did use the knowledge they inherited. The Empire against the Tide was quickly strengthened, but at the same time, they also made themselves the absolute theocracy leaders - that out-of-control and terrible faith was built with them as the source.
"In a series of propaganda, the high tower in the Arctic region became a holy place for the gods to drop blessings. Gradually, it was even passed on as the god's residence on the earth. In just a few hundred years, it was only a matter for the dragons. In the blink of an eye, many generations of the Reverse Tide Empire passed, and they began to worship the tower and built a complete system of myths and cults around it—so much so that when the Rebellion Rebellion finally broke out, The fanatics of the Anti-Tide Empire even shouted the slogan of 'Recapture the Holy Land' - they firmly believed that the tower was their holy place, and the dragons were heretics who stole the gifts of the gods...
"Therefore, in a sense, that high tower is actually the root cause of the war against the tide - once the fanatics of the empire against the tide succeed in contaminating the legacy of the sailor into a real 'god', then the whole world will have nothing to do with it. There is no future to speak of.”
Gawain sighed: "I'm not surprised by this - for the short-lived species, hundreds of years are enough to completely remake and re-dress up the real history, not to mention that it also covers the needs of theocracy. .So, the deification of the tower by the Anti-Tide Empire led to the birth of a... what?"
"Perhaps we can call it the 'God' against the tide," the Dragon God said lightly, "Hundreds of millions of people in the Anti-Tide Empire firmly believe that there is a god who descends blessings in that tower, so the god was born in response to the trend of thought. Now, the tower left by the voyager has been polluted by divinity... I have to say, this is quite ironic.
"The only thing we can be thankful for in the whole incident is that the 'god' born in that tower was not fully formed. Before the situation was irreversible, the Empire against the tide was destroyed, and the process of 'breeding' in the tower was the last step Failure. Therefore, although the tower is mutated and polluted, it does not produce true sanity, nor does it have the ability to take active action, otherwise... today's Tallond will be a hundred times worse than what you see."
"So the resistance of the Navigator's legacy to gods is not so absolute and perfect," Gawain laughed, "At least now we know that it is not so effective against the contamination within itself."
"Perhaps... Until today, we still have no way of knowing what happened in the tower, nor the state of the 'God Against the Tide' who was born in the tower. We only know that The tower has mutated and become very dangerous, and nothing can be done about it."
Gawain frowned: "Can't even you clear the divine pollution in that tower?"
"I can't get close to the legacy of the sailor," the dragon god shook his head, "and the dragon race can't fight against 'gods' - even external gods, even gods against the tide."
"This is also a 'lock'?!"
"It's also a 'lock'."
"Hiss..." Gawain suddenly felt a toothache, and since he came into contact with the truth about Tal Lund, he has not had this feeling for the first time, "So you guys keep that tower in front of your house? Just leave it like that?"
"There is no other choice," said the Dragon God calmly, "at least we can monitor its situation at all times in front of us. If the tower is located in other parts of the world, it is a real danger - the belief of the Reverse Tide Empire makes that tower It has a strong tendency to spread knowledge to the outside world, and if it is allowed to come into contact with other mortal civilizations, countless empires against the tide will be born, and countless out-of-control divine disasters with the goal of worshipping the sailors will be born.”
Speaking of this, the Dragon God suddenly glanced at Gawain: "Why, are you interested in taking a look at that tower? Maybe you won't be affected by it—"
"No, thank you," Gawain said without hesitation, "at least for now, I'm not very interested in it."
Just kidding, that is a real legacy of the Navigator that has been mutated due to the pollution of divinity - divinity, mutation, Navigator, basically the biggest danger factor in this world has been accounted for, this kind of situation hastily entered does not want to go back coffin? Gawain believed that he had a certain resistance to divine pollution, but he knew that his resistance came from the Navigator, and that tower was the Legacy of the Navigator after being polluted by the divine, and his resistance was in that tower. Whether it will work or not is completely unknown.
More importantly - he can use the "abandoned agreement" to deter a rational dragon god, but he can't deter a "god against the tide" who doesn't even seem to have developed a brain. That kind of thing can't be beaten, I can't talk about it, and it doesn't have much research value for Gao Wen... Why test with life?
In the final analysis, the curiosity about the Empire against the tide can only be regarded as a pastime for Gawain, not a rigid need-in his opinion, the degree of rigid need cannot even keep up with the Coke in the glass.
He picked up the oak cup full of "reflections" and took a sip to calm down.
At a certain moment just now, he actually had another idea - if the "falling coordinates" of some satellites and space stations in the sky are set at that tower, can it be destroyed directly and once and for all?
But this idea only appeared for a moment, and it was rejected by Gawain himself.
Because he is not sure - he is not sure that those space facilities will crash on the tower accurately, and he is not sure how effective it will be to use the Legacy of the Navigator to smash the Legacy of the Navigator.
Regarding the former, when he used the Cangqiang Station system to simulate the fall process of the on-orbit facility before departure, Gawain discovered that the fall errors of those antiques were actually quite frightening - too old systems and power deviations caused by energy shortages. All are affecting their fall accuracy. Although the base of the tower may be as large as an island, the fall errors of those on-orbit facilities may be directly biased to the nearby Tallond...
This is also why Gawain used the abandoned satellites and space stations to deter the Dragon God, but never thought of using them in the situation of Loren Continent-there are too many uncontrollable factors. Of course, you don’t need to think about it for smashing Tallond. Anyway, the dragon country is so big, and it will definitely have an effect wherever it falls. However, in the Loren continent, there are many countries and complex forces, and a booster engine down from the satellite has a deviation. Maybe it will hit him, not to mention the amazing power of that thing, it is impossible to use it in conventional warfare...
And as for the latter... more worrying.
Use the Navigator's satellite to smash the Navigator's tower - it's fine to smash it into ashes, but what if it doesn't work, or just smashes the tower open and releases the "things" inside? Whose responsibility is this?
After some thinking and weighing, Gawain finally suppressed the urge to "pull a satellite down and listen to the sound" in his heart, tried his best to calm down, and continued to suck Coke with a serious and thoughtful expression.
The Dragon God glanced at Gawain quietly, maybe he sensed the latter's thinking, maybe he was also thinking about the possibility of letting this "foreign wanderer" help solve the tower, but in the end he didn't have anything Say.
The topic of the Reverse Tide Empire and that tower seemed to pass like that.
This seemingly awkward silence lasted for a full two minutes before Gawain suddenly said to break the silence: "The sailor...what is it?"
"I thought you knew this very well," the dragon god raised his eyes, "after all, your connection with those heritages is so deep..."
"I just made a connection with those heritages by accident when I came to this world," Gawain said calmly-he has been in this world for so many years, and he rarely encounters such occasions where he can speak calmly, but he does not. Thinking that the first person who could openly talk to him turned out to be a "god", "I have coexisted with them for many years, but from those incomplete databases, I have not found a description of the sailor himself."
The Dragon God's gaze stayed on Gawain's face for a few seconds, as if he was judging the authenticity of this statement, and then he smiled lightly: "The sailor... is also a mortal."
"Mortal?" Gawain's eyes widened in surprise.
"Yes, mortals, even if they are incredibly powerful, even if they can destroy the gods..." The Dragon God said calmly, "They still call themselves mortals, and they insist on it."
"Okay... A race that insists on calling itself a mortal no matter how powerful it is..." Gawain nodded, "And then? How did they appear?"
"That's an even older age. The dragon race is only one of the few mortal races on this planet. There are several civilizations and different gods on this planet..." Dragon God The voice sounded lingeringly, and the voice seemed to float from the other side of the distant historical river, with vicissitudes and memories, "The sailors came from the depths of the universe and established observation stations and outposts on this planet..."
"They came from the depths of the universe?" Gawain was surprised again, "Didn't they develop from this planet?"
"Of course not," the Dragon God shook his head, "their hometown is farther away, an ancient galaxy they call 'exile'."
"Exile?" Gawain couldn't help frowning, "That's a strange name... Then why did they set up observation stations and outposts on this planet? Is it for supplies? Or for scientific research? At that time, the planet already included Several civilizations, including the dragon - have those civilizations been in contact with the Navigator? Where are they now?"
"They all left with the sailors - only the dragons stayed."
"Why? I... don't understand."
"Because at that time the dragons had already developed too much on the wrong path, and they no longer had the conditions to break away, and the navigators... had to continue sailing. They still had their own missions, and there was no way to stay and wait for the dragons."
Noticing the more confused expression on Gawain's face, the god smiled faintly, filling the cup on the table again.
"We still have some time—I haven't talked to anyone about the sailors in a long time," he said softly, "let me tell you about them from the beginning—that's an incredible group of people. 'mortal'."
