Wu Hui and others came to the game. Wang Xiaodie was the substitute in this game, and the twins came on first. Because Wu Hui thinks this lineup is more suitable.
The rules of this game have been distributed.
The two teams of players each choose a god camp to join, and then start a war between different god realms. Each gate to the divine world requires solving some puzzles in the relevant cultural background to enter.
For example, let's ask you to give the three-dimensional orientation of the stars and four images. Or let you rank the family relationships in Greek mythology.
What remains to be done now is which mythological system to choose.
They are more familiar with Wu Tong's Greek mythology and Ren Yin's Seventy-Two Demonic Pillars of Solomon. Of course, this Demon God Pillar has nothing to do with the Demon God Paradise, they just have the same name.
Then there is the ancient Chinese mythology system that you will always learn about when you live in East Asia. But to be honest, because the history is too long and the territory is too large, there are too many sources of mythological systems in this land, which makes it seem rather mixed. There is still Honghuang behind to force the integration.
The myths that most people are familiar with every day are just the ancient myths. But that’s okay. Myths themselves are constantly evolving. Most of them were probably stories made up by everyone at first. Then it became a system through the evolution and spread of generations of working people.
Like Greek mythology, I don’t know how many years have passed since the Greek era, and most of them are new stories created during the Renaissance. The rest were largely modified by Rome.

The mythological system that contains God has been modified by a large group of people.
Behind the myth is real history. He was something people worshiped and feared, the ancient people's explanation for the unknown.
But if that's all, why do they have power in the Demon God's game?
According to Wu Tong's understanding of gods, these powers actually come from people's fear and worship. With a large number of people and a long time, gods will be formed over time. If there are myths to help integrate and bring everyone to a similar thinking orientation, this god will be fully formed.
From this perspective, there should be only two most powerful gods. One is the Chinese pantheon, and the other is the God pantheon. The former has a long history and the latter has a wide range.
These are the two to choose from.
"The Paradise Team must be more familiar with God and angels than we are." Wu Hui frowned: "If we had been unable to surpass our opponents in internal competition in the past."
Wu Tong: "So you go to the divine realm of the Chinese divine system?"
"Actually, there are many Chinese pantheons, including the Taoist mythology system, the ancestor worship of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the foreign Buddhist system, and the southern pantheon mainly originated from the Chu State." Ren Yin said: "If you want to pass by, which god will it be? boundary?"
"I hope it's the prehistoric world view, like Journey to the West and The Romance of the Gods, as well as the mixed versions of legends from later generations..." Wu Hui said, leading everyone to set off.
The puzzle for the initial camp selection was very simple. Wu Hui and the others came to a fairyland.
The mountains are green mountains, but they are dotted with peach blossoms.
A monkey wearing golden armor is leaning on a peach tree, holding a peach in his hand, looking very leisurely
son.
In the sky, Nezha, who has three heads and six arms, and Erlang Shen, who has three eyes, are competing.
Looking up, you can vaguely see the buildings in the clouds. That is probably heaven. Well, after seeing Sun Wukong and Nezha Erlang God, we can basically confirm that this mythology system is an integrated version of Journey to the West and Fengshen Yanyi.
There are many gods in heaven in this system, which can basically be said to control all aspects of the mortal world, and the system is complete and the laws are strict. Even the marshal who flirted with women had to come down to earth, and even the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven who violated the laws of heaven was punished.
The setting of Heavenly God is still very good.
So, who are the strongest people here? Samcheong? Buddha? Or Hongjun from Fengshen Yanyi? Or Donghuang Taiyi or something...
Hongjun is probably unlikely. It’s not certain whether he is a mythical figure or not, but he appeared too late. He probably won’t have much faith, and his reputation is average among so many gods. When relying on something like faith, he might not be as strong as Sun Wukong.
Since it is compared with the degree of spread and time of spread, and perhaps also with the degree of piety and worship, then Sanqing is definitely the strongest level of gods. So is Tathagata Buddha. There is also the Jade Emperor and the King of Hell. Next, the Moon God and the God of Wealth are the ones that people often worship or mention. There are also famous people such as Sun Wukong and Nezha Erlang Shen, who will be relatively strong.
But that's not necessarily true. There is actually the strongest being in the Chinese pantheon.
Not the Three Pure Ones, not the Buddha, and certainly not the Jade Emperor and Sun Wukong.
But the sky.
The way of heaven, the sky.
Occasionally, there is talk of replacing him, such as Huang Tian. It fully shows that the piety of the Chinese people is extremely limited, and ordinary people
It doesn’t matter if God changes at every turn, the Supreme God can also change.
If it relies on faith, this is a bit painful, and the strength is definitely not as good as the opponent. Originally, the number of believers was large and the degree of piety was high.
"First find a way for them to conquer other divine realms and develop as quickly as possible, and then we will try to surprise the opponent during the melee." Wu Hui thought of a strategy as quickly as possible. Ren Yin nodded and added some details.
"The currently known gods include the Japanese Gods, the Indian Gods, the Greek Gods, the Nordic Gods, the Indian Gods, Solomon's Demon God Pillar...the last one is also from the heaven and hell." Ren Yin made a list.
Wu Hui: "Well, the God God System has expanded to many places and absorbed many original indigenous religious religions. They are also as complex internally as the Chinese God System."
The setting of hell, the many angels in heaven, and the differences between the Old and New Testaments.
"Hell and heaven should not be in the same wave, they will also have internal friction." Wu Tong participated in the discussion. Everyone chatted about each other's strengths and weaknesses.
At this time, the angels were different from what they imagined. Did not join the God pantheon.
Because some devout people said that this kind of thing pretending to be a god is a kind of blasphemy, they must not be touched, and they must find ways to destroy it.
It can only be said that Wu Hui and others really do not understand the thinking of believers.
This is indeed a blind spot in thinking. There are few devout believers in the land where Wu Hui and the others live - there are quite a few staunch Confucian disciples in ancient times. But it’s really gone in modern times.
But it is different in other places, especially Europe and the United States. Even if the People's United Nations banned the power of most religions after unifying the world.
Maybe there are less religious people in the Paradise team, but definitely
There is no way to say it. So you can only choose a course of action that is not so reasonable.
