A journey of survival starting from Zhetian

Chapter 375: Desecration of the Slate
In the busy train station, a train coming from a distance slowly stopped and gently stopped at the corresponding platform.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have arrived at the final stop of our train, Church Road Station. Please pack your valuable luggage and get off the train in an orderly manner."

A soft female voice came from the radio, repeating in various languages ​​such as Elvish and Giant, informing the passengers on the train of the arrival information.

In the surging flow of people, Amanisis took a temporary ID card, passed through the gate, and came to the square outside the train station. Looking back, he saw a building with an area of ​​about 100,000 square meters standing quietly in front of him.

Looking to the side, there were four-meter-tall giants wearing leather armor, elves wearing formal attire but with a bit of savagery, humans wearing wizard robes with wisdom in their eyes, and other extraordinary creatures.

"Beautiful lady, this bouquet of sunflowers is for you. May you have a wonderful day in the City of Morning Light."

A little clergy girl in a church robe raised her hand and handed a sunflower wrapped in brown paper and covered with dew to Amanisis, revealing a sweet smile, just like the sunshine that illuminates the world in the early morning, full of tenderness for all things.

"Thank you, little priest." Amanisis smiled, squatted down, and took the sunflowers in front of him. "May I ask why you gave me this bunch of sunflowers?"

"Ma'am, I feel that you are a little impulsive and full of desire, but also a little confused and timid?" The little girl dressed as a clergyman looked at Amanesis with a sunny smile, "Is this your first time in the City of Dawn? Please don't be confused. This is a city full of miracles. Its glory will illuminate the direction you are heading."

Amanisis, who was holding the sunflower, was slightly stunned. He reached out and touched his face, thinking, "Is the expression I showed so obvious?"

The little girl smiled brightly and continued, "Beautiful lady, please rest assured. As I said, the City of Dawn is a city full of miracles. As long as you are willing, no matter where you come from or what suffering you have endured, you can start over here and find your place here."

The humanity in her spirit erupted again, and a touch of tenderness flowed from the eyes of the goddess of doom. All the beautiful memories of the past seemed to be dug out one by one from the depths of the subconscious ocean that had been buried, dispersing the suffering she was now experiencing.

"Thank you, little priest." Amanisis sincerely thanked the little girl in front of him, "I need to go to the church, can you take me there?"

The little girl smiled and nodded. "Yes, beautiful lady, I am honored to help you. However, do you want to go to the church of the God of War, the church of the Storm, or the church of the Earth?"

After so many years of development, the human city that was originally just under the protection of the Observatory Tower and had a population of only 100,000 has now become an open, "international" metropolis that has been expanded several times, as a large number of extraordinary creatures were killed by "natural disasters" and powerful races such as giants are recuperating and seeking development.

Currently, the Church of the God of War that believes in the Giant King, the Church of the Storm that believes in the Elf King, and the Church of the Earth that believes in the Ancestor of the Blood Clan have all established branches here with the support of other extraordinary races, and transferred some clergy from their respective countries here.

As the open city that is probably the largest in scale, covers the largest area, and has the largest number of intelligent races, basically all extraordinary races that maintain a certain level of rationality and are not hostile to humans will come here to spread their beliefs.

As the most powerful humanoid race, the giants are no exception. As for the elves and the blood race, although their "kings" have fallen from the throne after a fall, their overall strength should not be underestimated, and as humanoid races, they will naturally come here to develop believers.

Listening to the little girl's words, Amanesis raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion, "What about the church of the tower that protects this city? Did I let it slip?"

The little girl shook her head. "Ma'am, I didn't let you slip. There are only three churches in the city that have cathedrals."

As Amanisis listened to what she said, his brows furrowed even more, with deep confusion in his eyes.

Seeing the frown on the lady in the black dress, the little girl seemed to understand something and quickly explained, "Beautiful lady, the Stargazing Tower and Xuanjun's Church actually existed a hundred years ago, but after the 'natural disaster', the Stargazing Church was transformed into the government hall of the City of Dawn."

"We in Dawn City did this because Xuanjun passed down a divine oracle after the 'natural disaster': 'Stargazing and I don't need your faith.' This was said to all believers who believe in the Stargazing Tower and Xuanjun."

"Therefore, the Observatory Tower and Xuanjun's Church were both renovated."

Hearing this, Amanisis's expression was slightly relieved, but the doubts in his heart not only did not get resolved, but even increased. Because as far as He knew, for beings of the Stargazing Tower's level, if they wanted to maintain their own humanity and resist the madness of the Beyonder characteristics overflowing from their bodies, the faith of believers was the best auxiliary tool.

Once the faith of believers is gone, the Stargazing Tower and Xuanjun, who are of such a high status, will not only have their humanity completely overwhelmed by their divinity, but the madness of their extraordinary characteristics will also completely crush their own consciousness, leading to the loss of self-awareness and turning them into crazy monsters.

Amanisis asked the little girl in front of him, "So, there are no more Observatory Towers and Xuanjun's followers in this city?"

The little girl shook her head and raised her church robe. There seemed to be bright sunshine in her eyes. She smiled and said, "In this city full of miracles, how could there be no believers of the Star Observation Tower and Xuanjun? I am one of them. Xuanjun just said that He doesn't need our faith, but he didn't stop us from believing in Him and the Star Observation Tower."

"And it's not just me. The humans, giants, elves, vampires, and other extraordinary creatures who have settled in this city are all believers of the Stargazing Tower and Xuanjun."

Amanisis, who was holding a sunflower, twitched the corners of his mouth slightly. He felt an indescribable subtle feeling in his heart, as if he wanted to vomit, but he didn't know how.

After a moment of silence, the goddess of doom said softly, "Your beliefs seem a little strange."

"Well, it's true that our beliefs are indeed a bit strange compared to the extraordinary creatures in other places." The little girl nodded. She seemed to know the difference between the beliefs in this city and other places. "However, this is very normal for us in the City of Dawn."

"The vast majority of our residents in Dawn City are actually more grateful to the Stargazing Tower, Xuanjun, and the Giant King and other gods."

"Thank you to the Stargazing Tower and Xuanjun for providing us with shelter in this dangerous world and giving us the opportunity to survive in this chaotic land."

"Thank you, Giant King, for giving us strength and helping us to open up the wilderness." "Thank you, Elf King, for giving us protection when sailing on the sea, so that we will not get lost in the ocean."

"Thank you, Blood Clan Ancestor, for giving us a good harvest and saving us from hunger."

"That's why the residents of our City of Dawn believe in multiple gods."

A look of astonishment appeared in the eyes of the goddess of doom. She seemed not to have expected that the religious environment in this human city in the spiritual world, which was protected by the embryonic form of a kingdom of God, would be so open.

In Amanesis's imagination, this human city should be similar to the small town he built in the Demon Wolf Territory. They all believe in the "God" who protects them, pure and unique.

But now this city named "Dawn" feels more familiar to Him. This seems to be the freedom of belief?
Stopping the thoughts that kept rising in his mind due to the activeness of human nature, Amanisis asked the little girl in a joking manner, "If I want to see the Stargazing Tower or Xuanjun, what should I do? Go to the tower on the sea cliff and gently knock on its door?"

The little girl's smile became brighter, and she answered, "Maybe it's possible? However, many residents in our city have tried it, but the gate of the tower has not been opened to us. Or can you make it open the gate and gain the favor of Xuanjun or the Stargazing Tower?"

"But according to legend, there are some people or extraordinary beings who are guided by fate. They only need to stroll around this city and turn a corner to meet Xuanjun or the Stargazing Tower and receive their care."

"I heard that the last person who received the favor of Xuanjun was the master of mysticism in our city, Hermes. After receiving various inspirations from the Observatory Tower, he now seems to want to imitate the giant language and the elf language and create a 'Hermes language'."

Amanisis smiled and did not take the little girl's words seriously. As a subordinate god, he naturally knew what state the "gods" were in. Even if the Stargazing Tower and Xuanjun were in good condition, they would still have certain mental problems.

At this moment, when he needed to be vigilant and face the madness of the extraordinary characteristics overflowing from his body, he did not think that any god would be willing to meet a master of mysticism who had not yet achieved "extraordinary results". Unless this master of mysticism really had "fate guidance", which made Xuanjun and the Stargazing Tower have to look at him sideways.

Amanisis stood up from his squatting position and nodded slightly to the little girl. "Thank you very much for the sunflowers, little priest. I like them very much, but now it's time to say goodbye. I still have things to deal with, so I can't chat with you for too long."

The little girl asked with a slightly romantic smile, "Madam, are you going to see Xuanjun?"

The goddess of doom smiled nonchalantly and said, "Yes, I originally came here to go to the Stargazing Tower and Xuanjun's church to find them."

After straightening her clothes, the little girl smiled like the morning sun and blessed Amanesis, "Madam, I wish you the best. I hope that you will meet the Xuanjun you are looking forward to after turning a corner in the city streets."

Amanisis nodded towards her again to express his gratitude, then slowly left the square at the train station, holding the sunflower in his hand, and walked towards the city streets. It seemed that He was going to walk from here to the bottom of the observatory tower.

The little girl looked at the back of the lady with a quiet aura, smiled, turned back to the square, picked up a bunch of sunflowers in her hand again, and sent warm blessings from the City of Dawn to each of the "outsiders" who had just arrived here.

However, during this process, neither Amanesis nor other extraordinary creatures noticed that spiritual threads were erected on the body of the little girl in the robe, rising into the spiritual world and disappearing into nothingness.

This girl with a bright smile seems like a secret puppet controlled by spiritual threads.

. . .

At the far end of the earth, in the land of the northern continent, a human scholar who has already possessed the status of an angel is constantly searching for something.

"That shouldn't be the case. According to the prophecy I received from fate, the opportunity for me to create a new supernatural language should be nearby. Why can't I find it?"

The next moment, a silvery light flowed from his eyes, and he cast a prophecy spell learned from the hidden sage, attempting to spy on something from fate once again.

But unfortunately, he is not a hidden sage, nor has he spent enough time in the field of destiny.

Therefore, even though his understanding of fate is good enough among the angels of Sequence 2, and he can be called a master among all the gods on Earth, he can often gain nothing from the unpredictable fate, which is like a turbulent river.

He murmured in a low voice, "Failed again."

Looking at the mountains in front of him, he couldn't help but look a little depressed. He seemed to be a little unconfident about his title as a master of mysticism. However, when he thought of Xuanjun meeting him and giving him the "prophecy of fate", he regained his confidence.

"Even if my prediction is wrong, Xuan Jun's prediction will not be wrong. After all, He is the end of my path and has the power to peek into fate and change it."

At this moment, a horrible tremor came from the earth. The violent shaking forced him to use magic to rise into the sky to avoid possible damage due to the accident.

"boom!"

The ground suddenly cracked open, and the sound of silent waves came from nowhere. A stone slab with a chaotic aura suddenly rushed to the surface from deep underground and came into his sight.

"This is, blasphemy against the slate."
