Lu Yu was looking forward to Lulutis, the great magician, teaching him how to use low-level magic when he woke up, but the problem was that she had to wake up first.
After being knocked unconscious by Huogu, Lulutis had slept all day.
Huo Gu thought this was normal. After being hit hard by such a powerful force, she also needed time to recover, and her body also had to adapt to the regained magic power.
Huo Gu was communicating with Lulutis before, and it was difficult for him to interrupt. Now that he had time, Lu Yu took the opportunity to ask about the summoning technique.
Because of the summoning rules and details that Lulutis described to her, there were discrepancies after Lu Yu verified the summons several times.
Lu Yu's biggest problem at present is that he uses the same description and description to summon, and what he gets cannot be fixed.
Secondly, after summoning the flesh and blood chariot last time, there was an inexplicable redundant payment link.
These are inconsistent with the details of the summoning spell described by Lulutis.
Lu Yu did not feel that Lulutis had lied to him. She knew very little about summoning magic. The knowledge she knew should be based on previous discussions and accidental gains. Mistakes and omissions were inevitable.
Huo Gu pondered for a long time: "The third payment, I have never heard of such a situation, but it seems that the summoned object cannot be fixedly summoned. It seems that it is not just your problem. Many summoners cannot be fixedly summoned."
"This problem not only troubles the human race, but the summoners in the dragon race are also puzzled. Since the ritual has been formed, why are there inexplicable changes in the content of the contract?"
"The Dragon Clan has no clue?" Lu Yu asked.
"No, because they can't figure it out, many dragons no longer study summoning. They feel that summoning is too volatile and can easily be self-defeating."
Lu Yu changed the question: "Has any of the dragon clan seen gods?"
"No, but there are many people who believe in the existence of gods."
Huo Gu yawned and was about to take a nap when Lu Yu, who was touching his chin, muttered something that made him suddenly open his eyes.
"Is there a possibility that gods have not yet been born in this world?"
The giant dragon Huogu's huge eyes reflected Lu Yu's contemplative look.
"Go on, Lu Yu."
"Based on your conversation with Lulutis, I have a basic guess."
"If it is as described by the oldest elder of the dragon, there was no magic in this world at first. The magic gradually appeared after the world developed to a certain period of time, and became rich over time, building a world based on magic. world."
"And only after the world has gone through a certain stage of development will certain rules be relaxed and improved, allowing each race to continue to explore more powerful mysteries."
Huo Gu stared at Lu Yu and asked: "Doesn't what you said just prove that there is indeed a powerful god who is adjusting the order of the world? It is he who creates barriers at every stage."
"It is precisely because of these barriers that the rules of most magic will change periodically, and magic that can be effectively used until the next cycle becomes the mainstream. Such changes have been experienced several times over thousands of years, you guys Human beings should understand best, because your mainstream magic system has changed several times, and a large number of rare magics from the old era will be like waste paper when they enter the next era, either with sharply reduced power or useless."
"But what if that god has no entity, but is just a consciousness?"
Huo Gu's brain couldn't keep up with Lu Yu's thinking. He was sluggish for a long time. His huge eyes blinked for a long time before he asked humbly: "Can you make it easier to understand?"
Lu Yu paced in front of Huo Gu: "I mean, everyone thinks that the person who adjusts these orders and changes the rules is a god with entity and self-awareness. But is it possible that from the beginning, the person in our description God does not have individual consciousness, but is only a manifestation of the will of the world itself, and the countless adjustments he has made are just an 'evolution' as this young world gradually matures."
"Because the rules are not yet complete and will conflict with each other, he will fix them after accumulating a large amount of erroneous data."
"This kind of restoration is beneficial to the entire world, and it is also a kind of nurturing of world consciousness itself for all living things in the world."
“…”
“…”
Huo Gu looked directly at Lu Yu, his brain basically shut down.
To be honest, it was quite scary. His eyes were almost as big as his own. Even though he knew that Huo Gu meant no harm to him, he was still a little scared to look at him like that.
After sorting out the information for a long time, Huogu asked hesitantly: "Did you come up with it yourself, or did Lulutis tell you?"
"It's compiled based on the information I got from your exchanges and some things I know."
This sentence silenced Huo Gu again.
Every sentence Lu Yu just said would cause an uproar among human magicians.
If we follow Lu Yu's thinking, this young world, driven by world consciousness, has not reached the stage of birthing gods at all.
The debate over whether gods exist can be stopped. In one word, all the gods of existing religions are lies.
For the power in their hands, for their interests, this theory must be, and must be, a heresy. When Lu Yu went to the gallows, he was breathing fire from his ancestral graves, and when he was burned, it was all extrajudicial mercy.
Huogu didn't know whether gods existed, but out of some thoughts about the bottleneck of magic power and confusion about the changes and replacements of magic in each period, he still recognized part of the existence of gods.
But Lu Yuchu’s point of view illustrates a completely different possibility from a new perspective.
Although it was only possible, it had a great impact on Huo Gu's mind.
If Lu Yu's hypothesis is true and no god has ever been born in this world, then the biggest obstacle to becoming a god is oneself, and it will not come from the illusory higher-ups. After all, in Huo Gu's understanding, mortals are bound to touch the authority of gods. They will be tested by the gods, and in some cruel guesses, the gods will even suppress those who come late.
If everything is true, and world consciousness "progresses" the world to a certain level, power similar to gods will inevitably be born.
Will this kind of power be the only one?
Even if it's not the only one, it's not something off the street, and anyone can get it at will.
Huo Gu raised his head and looked around, and found Sigrid and the Mist Demon playing in the distance, Lulutis was still sleeping, and there was no one else in the valley except them.
Huo Gu solemnly reminded: "No one can tell this conjecture except the people closest to you. Once you tell it, you will be in disaster, and you will die with Lulutis and the others without a burial place."
Lu Yu also felt the power contained in this conjecture and said quickly: "I am not a fool. If I say these words out, those who believe in the existence of gods will immediately use me as fodder. "
"Thinking about being used as fodder will always end well!" Huogu sneered. "I hate talking to any high-level clergy. They are more hypocritical than anyone else and it makes me sick."
After complaining, Huo Gu looked at Lu Yu again.
Previously, he only regarded Lu Yu as Lulutis's little follower. After all, according to the previous description, Lu Yu just happened to get on the ship when Lulutis was in despair.
Holding a seventh-level magician in his arms and eating soft food is naturally not very popular with Huo Gu.
However, Huo Gu became interested in the relationship between the two due to Lulutis' various behaviors and Lu Yu's appearance when the seal was broken.
They have such a tacit understanding and care about each other. As a seventh-level magician, Lulutis trusts Lu Yu so much. This is enough to prove Lu Yu's character and that the relationship between the two is probably more than just friends. …
However, after hearing this set of conjectures deduced by Lu Yu in a short period of time, Huo Gu changed his view.
As the creator of this conjecture, as long as Lu Yu can find a way to prove the conjecture to be true, then he and Lulutis will undoubtedly have an advantage in competing for the possible "god position".
As for himself, as a dragon who had helped Lulutis and Lu Yu, he got this news for free and had an information advantage.
But...how to prove it?
According to Lu Yu's conjecture, the only way to prove it is for someone to advance to the tenth level in human imagination, pry into the secrets behind the level, and at the same time verify the existence of gods before the next expansion of the barriers to world rules.
Every operation is difficult.
Leaving aside the tenth level, if you want to prove that the existing gods do not exist, you have to offend the Holy See who are very large and claim to have had miracles.
After much thought, Hogus concluded that the only way to weaken the power of the Holy See's sophistry is for the most influential people in the Holy See to take the initiative to expose the Holy See's scam, weaken their influence, and take the opportunity to incite the people. Distrust in the existence of gods disintegrated the Holy See, and at the same time, through her, she learned the truth that gods were forged.
It is so difficult that even those in high positions in the Holy See cannot deviate from their class even if they do not believe in God.
Not to mention, shrewd churches often package their gods very well and never over-package them, so that the people in the church are convinced that the lies have become truth through countless self-brainwashings.
It is better to expect Lulutis to instantly recover into a seventh-level magician than to expect someone who does not believe in God or respect God to be born among such people.
Huo Gu told Lu Yu that if he had any other wonderful ideas during his time in the valley, he should come over and share them with him. Lu Yu naturally agreed. After all, they would also need Huo Gu's help not only now, but also in the future. A friend, there are many paths.
Seeing Lu Yu and the mist demon going out to hunt together, Hogu suddenly felt emotional.
"Maybe one day, I will really need them to help me get through difficulties..."
"Solan, if you give your hand to them, you may win unimaginable rewards for your people in the distant future..."
Huo Gu once advised Solan not to return to Lotan. It may be dangerous to continue moving forward, but there is still a chance to become stronger and to know more lives.
Solan, who was burdened with the future of his race, hesitated, but ultimately rejected his proposal.
"Being a king will make you lonely. No one can help you, and you will only die trapped on the throne."
"You are a dragon, a creature that has surpassed our clan since the beginning. Loneliness is your normal state, and strength is the reason why you are lonely... I hope that one day, my people will not be discriminated against by people of other races. For this belief, I I cannot be as free as you. If the king is a curse, I can only accept this curse."
So Solan chose to go back, and the valley where he lived became the end point of his journey.
Decades later, another group of creatures who interacted with him came here.
What makes Huo Gu happy is that Lu Yu and the others will definitely continue to move forward.
Moreover, their goals are even more ambitious, and Huogu has become a member of this alliance inadvertently.
