The knight in the abyss

Chapter 510 Theological Discussion
There were no accidents in the battle in front of the gate of the fortress. The few attackers were quickly divided and surrounded, and the casualties were almost exhausted under the front and rear attacks.What is commendable is that they fought bravely despite knowing that they must die. Almost everyone managed to pull an opponent to die together, but compared with the total number of casualties, the price of this victory is too high.

"The final battle loss ratio is about ten to one." Lancelow shook his head lightly, "I can't think of any other reason to explain that kind of battle other than believing that you can go to heaven after dying in battle in this way." Pointless behaviour."

"However, in the outer planes, life is very cheap. How you die determines the value of a soul." Aramir explained softly. At some point, everyone realizes how bad this multiverse is. Their desire to change everything and make everything in the universe more to their liking, and the existence of power is the ultimate expression of these desires. I know you haven't found it yet My own beliefs, so I can't understand this kind of fanaticism, but don't underestimate the power of belief."

"Understood." Lancelot nodded, "But you have caused me another question, how did the divine powers appear? Did the mortal beliefs create the gods, or did the gods create the mortal beliefs?"

"Haha, you raised one of the most controversial issues in the field of theology. My personal point of view is that there are two situations." The pastor laughed and said, "I am an elf, and Brutal is a dwarf. All races have a definite Creator God. To some extent, our race is a tool used by the Creator God to change the multiverse according to his own will. The moral standards of our society are also determined by the Creator God himself, which violates these standards The drow and gray dwarves are such examples, and this also forces them to turn to believe in other gods."

"And you, Kara Lin, and Isabella are human beings without a creator god, but your will has created gods in reverse, such as the goddess I believe in, the fire-haired lady Sune, who was born Because of human yearning for love and beauty, and that is my lifelong pursuit." The elf priest proudly displayed the emblem on his shield, a head portrait of a lady with thick curly hair, "similar to the god of war, the god of wealth, the god of knowledge, Gods, they are all born from a certain desire of mortals, and their power is not weaker than the original gods of the multiverse."

"What about Solem, the god of frost giants?" Brutal asked curiously, "Is he the 'God of Creation' belonging to the frost giants?"

"No, the giant's creator god is Annan, and Solem is just one of Annan's many children." Alamir scratched his head, "According to legend, after the giant empire collapsed on the material plane, Annan's understanding of the material plane The giants were so disappointed that they no longer answered the prayers of the giants, but there is also a saying that Annan did not answer the prayers of the giants first. No matter what the truth is, the giants who lost Annan turned to worship Annan's children. The second generation of giant gods."

"Then why does the frost giant worship Solem and not other children?" Brutal asked further, "The brother Georgard who is locked in that fortress is Solem's brother, right? Is it as powerful as God?"

"Of course not." Alamir shook his head, "Annan's children were originally only demigods. It was the power of faith of the giants that gave them the opportunity to become true gods. These children competed with each other and used various methods to attract different gods. The giants worshiped themselves, but in the end there were only a few winners, and this is why Kostchurch was able to snatch the believers from Solem's hands-the Prince of Wrath set a very attractive price for the frost giants, Including directly destroying hostile tribes, gaining eternal life in the steel ice field, and going to countless worlds to plunder..."

"Why does it sound like a deal?" Brutal frowned in disgust, "Whoever bids better will give the faith to whom?"

"For you and me, this kind of thing is of course extremely wrong, but there are too many gods and their believers in this kind of transaction relationship." The elf priest shrugged, "For many frost giants, Kostchurch is What they wanted was exactly what they wanted, so they abandoned Solem without hesitation, and bowed their knees to the abyss lord. Because in the eyes of the frost giants, after Annan left, their beliefs were originally used to exchange benefits ..."

"I'm sorry to interrupt your theological discussion, but I found an ideal location." Kara Lin's voice sounded suddenly, he opened his eyes, but the focus of his sight was not on any object, "This cave is about one hour away from the surface. Hundred feet, the hole opens downwards, so it is completely invisible from above. There is a dry space ten feet square inside, which is very suitable for arranging teleportation runes..."

"Sounds good, that's it. After a while, everyone will go directly to the demiplane, and I will fly to that cave in the form of a succubus." Lancelow nodded, "How long can your spell last? Enough to go See what's under that thick fog?"

"There should be about ten minutes left. If there is anything worth noticing, I can cast this spell again tomorrow..." The scholar closed his eyes again, "I have already entered the thick fog, and there is absolutely nothing in my field of vision." Reference object..."

"You won't get lost in that thick fog, will you?" The dwarf laughed aside, "If up, down, left, and right look exactly the same, how can you be sure that you're not going around in circles?"

"In the world of magic, this kind of situation is not uncommon. The trick is not to stop and look around, and keep the direction you started..." A look of extreme shock suddenly appeared on the scholar's face, "Friends, I think I Know where the fallen frost giant corpses go..."

"Let me guess, in the belly of a giant scavenger bigger than a dragon?" Brutal put forward his guess, "Because this scavenger eats so well, it has reached the legendary level..."

"What? No, I mean, they're all here!" The blood gradually faded from Kara Lin's face, "Oh my God, how many are there? Thousands, tens of thousands? I can't count..."

"What are you talking about?" Brutal was completely confused by him, "The corpse of the frost giant?"

Karaline's body convulsed suddenly, and then he opened his eyes.He looked very weak, but had fully recovered.

"The duration of the spell has expired." He explained to the companions around him, "The corpses of those giants have all turned into undead creatures. There are too many of them to count. It feels like breaking into an ant's nest, but every time The ant is a zombie the size of a giant. I am so glad that I saw this scene through magic, if there is any breath of a living person appearing nearby, I am afraid that it will be torn to pieces in an instant..."
