How can a retired savior be considered retired if his price drops to 40,000?

Chapter 148 No wine but talking about the gods

The first person to answer this question without hesitation was the think tank: "Everything I encounter who claims to be a god is my enemy. I know this is enough."

This is a very typical answer given by the Ultramarines Space Marines.But Prophet Natas obviously had different opinions on this: "Does this mean that your master is also your enemy?"

"The Emperor is not a god," retorted the Librarian. "The Master of Mankind will forever deny this."

"He denies it, but he still is." Seer Natas turned his questioning gaze to Guilliman. "I think this is the core issue of this discussion. Am I right? Lord Regent?"

Guilliman did not reply, but turned his attention to Fujimaru Ritsuka.The latter leaned back slightly in the wheelchair: "Don't look at me, what I say doesn't count - I am a person who uses the power of the emperor to perform witchcraft all day long. You can't expect what such a person says. How convincing is the view that 'the emperor is not a god' to others?"

The Imperial Regent frowned and asked, "What if we hypothetically ignore the Emperor in this question and only discuss the divine existence itself?"

"Gods are 'natural disasters.'" she said. "They usually cause a lot of unavoidable losses to human society, and trying to fight against them is often thankless. But as long as you find the right method, you can do it to a certain extent." Utilize the energy it brings. In the long run, the negative impact will be greater than the positive impact. Although it will cause chaos if it suddenly disappears, at the root, human prosperity does not require this kind of thing .”

Prophet Natas laughed: "It's a good metaphor, but it is just a metaphor after all."

Fujimaru Ritsuka shrugged indifferently: "So Prophet Natas, I wonder if you are willing to share the ancient wisdom from the Eldar on this matter?"

"This is a complicated issue even for my people." Prophet Natas thought briefly after these words, and then spoke again, "We first generally classify gods into two categories: material The gods of the world, you call them star gods, we call them Yangor; the gods of the sea on the other side, they are what we call the 'image of the material world'.

"The gods of the material world are one of the foundations of the veil of reality. Because of the close connection between the star gods and the material world, they can affect its structure, but they are also bound by the laws of this reality; and the gods of the subspace are even more short-lived. , the types are also more diverse, many are just collections of emotions, and some are still mortal before being transformed by the beliefs of others.

"But these are very rough classifications. Are they correct? Even within our clan, there are often counterarguments to this. Facts will change, phenomena will become easier, and the original theory will always be easily overturned by counterexamples that follow. —Therefore, the origin of the gods cannot be classified. They have no history, only the history that people impose on them.”

This too abstract and unclear introduction made the Imperial Regent frown.He didn't say anything immediately, but turned his gaze to his heir.

"Power defines the gods, but they are all lies." The Think Tank said. "I'm not very familiar with the 'Star Gods', but the Chaos Gods bring only fear. They see us as playthings, and will eventually Destroy us. There is no doubt that they are evil, every one of them. Man has no need of gods. The Emperor is right."

The think tank has used some cautious words, but Prophet Natas still sighed and shook his head, as if "a child cannot be taught": "When you agree that 'power defines God', you How can you exclude your master from the discussion?”

"The Emperor is not a god." Fujimaru Ritsuka retorted in a firm tone, "Although he has come very close to that line, if you look carefully enough, you will realize that he has not really crossed it yet. "

"This is a conclusion that cannot be proven or falsified, because no one can see, as you said, 'carefully enough.'" Prophet Natas continued to shake his head gracefully, "In the subspace, all Looking at that person, one can only see the bright light of the star torch, and feel the pain and torture coming from it. Who can clearly understand whether what he sees from that light is true or false? Every one of them The threads of destiny leading to the throne have been burned, and no one can predict His future path..." In the process of saying these words, he seemed to realize something, and gradually weakened his voice.Prophet Natas began to observe the girl in the wheelchair with a cautious attitude - there were some things that vague prophecies and ambiguous omens could not reveal, but in this face-to-face distance, some facts became apparent to the person involved, began to emerge in the cognition of the Eldar prophets.

He began to realize that Fujimaru Ritsuka's soul was wrapped in a glimmer of light that was very similar to the Star Torch.This light was like a sharp blade that had not been drawn out of its sheath, temporarily restrained. He could not - and it was best not to explore its full extent.Prophet Natas carefully avoided this part and tried to use his spiritual senses to detect more clues. But at this moment, a thunderstorm that existed in the material world came up and completely blocked the prophet. Sight".

The senses of Prophet Natas that were responsible for receiving the situation in reality told him that this was a phenomenon caused by the white-clothed attendant beside Fujimaru Ritsuka moving slightly closer to her seat.As a result, he withdrew his spiritual senses and began to think in shock: What on earth is this?
There was a brief eye contact between master and slave on the other side, which ended with a visibly unhappy Arjuna staying put.But Fujimaru Ritsuka was obviously not prepared to let this matter go by just like that, and directly became angry in person: "I wonder what you saw in me? I'm quite curious about how the strange tribe will view me."

The current situation is obviously stronger than human beings. While being frustrated by his imprudent behavior, Prophet Natas apologized: "Please forgive my presumptuous behavior, but I saw some signs from you... that reflect the throne. .”

This sentence aroused Guilliman's concern and worry from another angle. Therefore, he frowned and asked Prophet Natas: "I hope you can express it more clearly."

But it was not the Eldar who answered him on this question, but the think tank around him: "It is the light of the Star Torch." He said, "Director Diglis has announced this to the entire Psychic Council. The soul of this girl contains the power of the Emperor. Normally it looks like nothing more than gazing at the stars in the night sky, but when needed, it will quickly brighten."

Speaking of this matter, Fujimaru Ritsuka seemed a little frustrated: "Ever since I received the complaint from the navigator and astropath on the Lion's Mane, I have been practicing controlling this problem. It seems that it will still be discovered... "

"More than that." Prophet Natas said, "The thread of destiny that should have been connected to you has either been burned, or it has been confused into a mess that is difficult to distinguish between true and false. This should be why our people cannot accurately Predicting your fate, we can only deduce the future you may create through various circumstantial means."

"...I won't ask you about the results of your deduction." Fujimaru Ritsuka said, "I always feel that there are some things that I still don't know that make me feel better."

Prophet Natas did not comment on this and directly changed the subject: "But please forgive me for asking this. I am really curious: As a favored person who has received many blessings from the Lord of Humanity, why can you How can you ignore the facts that are right in front of you and say with such certainty that 'the Emperor is not a god'?"

"Perhaps it's because I stand close enough and can see some details that others can't see." Fujimaru Ritsuka said calmly, "Bowls are very similar to cups. They are both semicircular containers that can also hold water. Come and drink, but you can't say that a 'bowl' is a 'cup'. The current emperor may be very similar to a god, and even the things he can accomplish are almost the same, but..."

She stopped talking, thought for a moment, and started a new topic:
"In your eyes, there is no doubt that my power comes from the Emperor." She confirmed this statement to everyone present, and received unanimous approval. "In normal times, for the convenience of expression, I I would say the same thing myself. But if we take it seriously, all the witchcraft I have used, traced back to its source, will it really only stop at the Emperor?"

"-Or, in the past 1 years since the Emperor himself ascended the throne, his abnormal and continuous increase in spiritual power is really just because of the quality of his own soul and the strength of his spirit. Is it growing over time?”

　Miwu (six o'clock)

　　These two chapters are both setting chapters (.)
　　I strongly suspect that GW themselves don’t understand settings such as subspace and gods. They have read the relevant content repeatedly. Sometimes they say that subspace is the reflection of the material universe, and sometimes they say it is created outside the universe. The high-dimensional world tries to introduce the multiverse. At one moment, it lets Chaos believers boast about the creation of the four gods. At another moment, it says that if the emperor becomes a god, he can destroy the four gods of chaos...

　　Whatever, I'll just use the moon setting to directly pollute the subspace with memes, and feast on GW's setting! (serene)
