Speaking of this, Vittorio showed a look of reminiscence. He knew very little about this very long history. He only knew that there was a protracted war on this continent in order to compete for more faith.
In the end, there is no doubt that the Holy See won the final victory and ended the previous chaos of various kingdoms. It integrated eleven kingdoms and dozens of grand duchies into one, and established a huge empire.
"So those evil gods are powerful wizards who failed in their fight for faith?" Linn guessed.
He finally understood why the Holy See repeatedly suppressed and surrendered wizards.
First, every powerful wizard is a potential threat and a contender for faith.
Secondly, if powerful power can be obtained through another method besides faith, the influence of the Holy See will inevitably be greatly weakened.
As for those with good talents, they can be incorporated into the theological system through faith baptism and serve as bishops or cardinals.
"You can say that, but according to my understanding, there are also many evil gods who come from some kind of existence outside this continent." Vittorio's expression became a little solemn, and he quickly continued to explain.
In short, psychic magic is a shortcut to gain power, but it is also honey wrapped in poison. It will make people immersed in rapidly increasing power. Even this belief method is not without flaws.
Those evil gods try to increase their power by using the connection of faith and harvesting the souls of devout believers, and they will inevitably be affected in the process.
Its horror lies in the fact that it will subtly affect the object of belief, after all, because believers believe in the gods in their own minds.
So far, Vittorio has not heard of any method that can completely eradicate this soul pollution.
Personality modification? Linn couldn't help but shudder.
In other words, the price of rapidly increasing strength is losing oneself?
The fate of the evil mage Merk is the best demonstration. As his power gradually increases, his image becomes closer to the elemental spirit, and his temperament will also change greatly.
"Even those honored by the Holy See..." Linn wanted to say [Ella], but thinking that Vittorio had stopped Casimo from telling the other person's full name, he quickly changed his mind. "Is that one no exception?"
"Maybe." Vittorio shook his head. "She has gone deeper on this road than anyone else. Hundreds of years have passed since she won the war of faith. No one knows what state she is in now. The only thing that can be imagined is that her power will inevitably It has grown to an extremely terrifying level.”
Harrov on the side gave a positive answer. "I don't think even that one could completely solve this problem, otherwise the Wizarding Land would have been wiped out long ago."
It is for this reason that the Magic Council imposes strict requirements on the research of psionic spells, and this restriction reached its peak after the tragedy caused by the psionic school.
Facts have proved that wizards who are limited by their talents and cannot be promoted can do anything.
"What about the [Source of Magic]? I heard that the wizards in Greenriel use this magic potion to break their limits and improve their spiritual power. The material produced contains something called spiritual matter, which is also fused through fusion. Did you use the soul method to complete the promotion?" Lin En couldn't help but ask.
"No, ectoplasm is not completely equivalent to the soul. It is only the residue of some psychic power and magic power. It is relatively safe, but it cannot be taken continuously. It needs to be combined with the corresponding potion to effectively utilize its power." Haro The husband explained.
"Thank you for your answer, Mr. Speaker." Linn nodded, feeling a little relieved.
Then Harrov asked vaguely about the current situation of the [Arcane Society]. The pressure from the Holy See was too heavy, and the Wizarding Land alone was not enough to compete with it.
Linn was naturally aware of Harrov's little thoughts, and did not make any guarantees. He just evaded it by saying that the legendary wizards of the [Arcane Society] basically focused on the study of magic and rarely interfered with external affairs. It may not even be on this continent, but he may be able to contact some colleagues who are willing to resist the Holy See.
…
The next day, in order to clear away the haze caused by the evil god incident, an extremely grand celebration ceremony was held in Greenriel City.
Raphael and others, who captured the doomsday messenger Casimo and successfully delayed August, undoubtedly became the heroes who saved Greenrial City. Almost everyone in the team received a Morning Star Medal. .
As the greatest contributor, Linn was independently nominated for the Silver Moon Medal.
This shows that it is not easy to get the highest honor award in the Wizarding Land. Linn estimates that unless he kills August directly, it will be about the same...
Fortunately, Lin En took these honors very lightly. What made him most happy was that the parliament approved his application and was willing to give him a new [Corona Medal].
After all, he activated the protective spell stored in the medal - [Vittorio's Barrier] in order to save the Wizard City. It would be unjustifiable if he was not reimbursed.
Considering the strange situation in the Sea of Mist, Linn did not stay in Greenriel City for long. On the morning of the fourth day, he submitted his resignation to the parliament and prepared to return to Ietta.
In the evening, the airship hovered over the city square.
"Your Excellency Linn, are you ready to leave now? I haven't been able to ask you about many questions about calculus and curve equations." Tick said with great regret.
These days, he has become very obsessed with the study of calculus. This is simply the only way to reveal the microscopic realm. Tick even feels that many spell models can be reconstructed using the knowledge of calculus to increase their power and reduce a certain degree of damage. Spellcasting requirements.
It's a pity that Master Leibniz who guided them seemed to be very busy. He occasionally appeared in the [Sea of Mathematical Olympiads] and always threw them a new Mathematical Olympiad book for them to ponder...
Tik didn't dare to say more, let alone ask more questions, because each Mathematical Olympiad book contained extremely profound knowledge, formulas, and theories. He couldn't imagine how much effort it took to summarize it, and he could only secretly feel ashamed of their learning progress. It is too slow, and I don’t know when I will be able to truly participate in the research of establishing the calculus system.
And Linn became their savior. He was the only person in Greenriel who understood these calculus books and gave them some answers.
According to the other party, Mathematical Olympiad is a required subject for all members of the [Arcane Society]. He was also fortunate enough to study with Master Leibniz for a period of time, so he knew a little bit of relevant knowledge.
But after asking for advice several times, Tik discovered that Linn was too humble. He not only knew a little bit, but there was literally nothing he didn't understand.
If it weren't for the limited number of passengers that an aerial airship could accommodate, Tick would have wanted to follow him to the Iyeta harbor.
