The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 201: Delivery of last words
——[Dragon Transformation].
That is, becoming the messenger of the old grandmother.
Of course Annan knows what a "messenger" is.
Actually, this is a euphemism... Only the undead can become an envoy.
This means that Ivan's end has come.
But Annan didn’t feel any sadness...
Because this is not actually goodbye.
This is different from the teachings of some false gods that say "dead believers will come to the gods" or "the souls of the dead will go to hell". The Twelve True Gods do not need to use such lies to deceive believers, but the false gods - especially those who are loyal to their territory, will more or less tell some little lies in order to get help.
The biggest lies are "God will hear your prayers" and "You must remain pious to God."
——Except for those with abnormal perception like Kafni who are born with the ability to talk to the gods, basically only in correct and powerful rituals can the gods hear the voice of the caller. Of course, it's a different matter if you call by your real name... After all, the act of "calling out your real name" is also a ritual in itself.
In fact, if you think about it, if you can hear the gods by shouting, then what is the purpose of the ceremony?
As for piety... Whether it is a true **** or a false god, there is no need for piety or belief. A god's job is only two things - to maintain the concept of priesthood, and to purge nightmares.
As for making messengers, running churches, compiling magical arts, compiling doctrines, etc., they are all extensions of these two things.
But God does not need piety...but the church does.
The less welfare and competitive a church is, the more it will emphasize the importance of faith. Through the web woven by faith and the afterlife, they can force believers to perform various types of work for them.
When they are pious enough, they will not ask for anything in return, nor will they care about the experience. This is a very critical step for the small-scale church of false gods.
——The Righteous Church with strong appeal, such as Yin Jue Church, has no shortage of people at all.
They can even tell the believers directly that it doesn't matter whether they really believe in Yin Jue or not. As long as they don't blaspheme in the temple, even if they curse Yin Jue a few times on the street, as long as they don't happen to be bumped into by Yin Jue, they won't. Someone cares about you.
You can complain all you want, but the work cannot be delayed.
The church assigns individuals the highest mission of purifying nightmares; as well as the volunteer tasks that each person needs to complete.
For example, working as a teacher in a church school, or managing donations raised, or helping ordinary people read and explain contract issues they encounter, accepting complaints and reports about other contract workers and participating in investigations... these Work must also be done.
——You know, Sir Silver’s core teaching is not to gain profits, but to maintain transactions.
So those businessmen who use deception to make money by killing chickens and laying eggs will also be hunted down by Yinjue's priests if they are reported - this kind of righteous sanction from heaven is also part of the work of Yinjue's priests. ring.
The old grandmother’s behavior style is completely different from that of Sir Silver.
As the God of tradition, He only prefers his own blood heirs. Therefore, the old grandmother will only choose the messenger from the heirs of the Blood of Frost Whisper.
——In other words, all the old grandmother’s messengers are strictly related to each other.
Maybe after becoming a messenger, he found that his father, uncle, aunt, and grandfather were all staring at him and muttering "You're here" and "You just came."
From the appearance point of view, His messenger is a giant dragon.
The good thing is that they can finally break free from the emotional shackles of the "Heart of Winter". But at this time, they can no longer turn back into humans and speak human words.
It is completely different from the "perfect dragon form" obtained after "Heart of Winter" evolves to its final form and advances to the gold level.
The innate ability of Heart of Winter, if it can evolve to [Blood of Winter] and then obtain a dyed soul, can theoretically turn it into a real ancient dragon.
Ability to transform at will without losing one's profession, long lifespan, and extremely strong resistance. In other words, if you are a wizard, you can even cast spells in the form of a dragon.
Be more precise.
——That is, becoming the "fellow race" of the old grandmother.
In fact, the talent of "Heart of Winter" was originally used by the old grandmother to create her own kind. The curses, restraints and enhancements it provides are all side effects caused by extracting blood.
The old grandmother's messenger "Frost Whispering Dragon" only looks like a giant dragon.
They have lost their human hearing organs and vocal organs, and can only use the language of frost or dragon language to "listen" and "speak".
Therefore, if you want to perform high-level rituals to summon dragons, you must be proficient in one of these two ancient languages, otherwise you will not be able to use the dragons at all.
The dragon transformed through this method cannot return to human form, nor can it talk in human language. They don't have all the extraordinary abilities they had as humans, and naturally they can't perform rituals... All they have is the ability to breathe, fly, resist and attack from the "shell" given by their grandmother. Like a human transformed into a dragon.
Of course, even so they are terrifying.
It is different from the type of messenger "Silver Guide". The Frost Whisperer Dragon is a real thug - possessing an extremely cold breath weapon, the wisdom of a sage among humans, a calm and indifferent mind, the ability to summon a blizzard with just words, a rough-skinned and fleshy monster that stands twenty feet tall. .
That is a monster that even multiple Silver-level transcendents may not be able to defeat...
The most terrifying thing is that this shell can be damaged at will. Because it is actually a virtual image created by the power of "tradition". Therefore, if the summoned dragon is in a good mood, they will not care about their own safety when fighting for the summoner.
However, even if you can't turn back into a human, it's not a big problem...
Because the messenger originally had to stay away from the world. This limitation of not being able to transform back into a human being is itself a way for the grandmother, who often falls into dragon sleep and lacks control over them, to ensure that the angels stay away from the human world.
If the divine envoy was in the material world, he would not be able to respond to the ceremony immediately... that would be tantamount to being absent from work.
As undead, the "guarantee fee" for the envoy to be able to continue to live in the world without triggering the burial mechanism is paid by the gods.
If the messengers don't work, it's like a kind of free whoring...
Although the old grandmother is very kind to her blood heirs, it does not mean that she will let them act as they please - all her envoys are blood heirs, which also means that to her, no one is special. at.
Maybe Yinjue will give someone an occasional vacation because of his special talents. But the old grandmother doesn't.
She has a strong will to be a parent.
For her, all the Winter Dukes, no matter how powerful they are outside, must be her juniors in front of her.
In order to work, the messenger must live in other adjacent worlds, or in the gaps between worlds. In this way, they can respond the moment the ritual masters initiate the ceremony.
The upside... probably is that Ivan can see his father and grandfather again. ~IndoMTL.com~ Ivan’s talents are so outstanding and he spends his life conscientiously. Annan didn't have to worry that his grandmother would look down on him.
And in that case, there is at least one advantage - Annan and Ivan will not be separated forever.
After Ivan becomes an emissary, they still have a chance to meet again.
Yes.
Afterwards, as long as Annan performs the "Summoning: Frost Whispering Dragon" ritual, there is a chance that he can summon his biological father...
"It's almost this month," Ivan said slowly, "I heard that you are dealing with the Northland Alliance. I will try to survive for a few more days and wait for you to deal with their problems before turning into a dragon.
"Before that, I must hand over to you the secret that the Grand Duke has passed down from generation to generation..."
"...Great level spell?"
Annan guessed what Ivan was going to say.
Ivan nodded.
He patted the three-color crutch he usually used, and said calmly: "Actually, this is a great curse passed down from generation to generation in our family. You didn't expect it, didn't you?"
"...Huh?"
Annan was stunned for a moment.
I didn’t expect that.jpg
Annan glanced at the three-color scepter in Ivan's hand with its legs spread out like an IV pole, and suddenly hesitated.
It turns out... isn't this a non-slip crutch?
