Stray Chapter 197: Progress
At the same time, in the Creator's Little Garden game.
The accelerated world is still running according to the existing laws and order, whether it is the creatures on the material plane, the kingdom of gods in the astral world, or even the reincarnation system of the Styx in the lower abyss ...
As for a few days ago, hundreds of people of different races, genders and even camp beliefs who appeared on the material plane at the same time went crazy at the same time, as if they were possessed by demons, and eventually caused various kinds of things, like this, that, All kinds of stupid things to die...
It didn't make any waves. In the material plane of Nuoda, not even a splash of water was able to splash.
After all, the material plane is too huge, not to mention boundless, but also vast, with a major continent, and scattered overseas archipelagos, the number of which is just the number of creatures of various races living on the surface Just a huge number.
This still doesn't count the underground world, the races in the ocean, or even the things that survive in the harsh environment of the lower abyss.
It is conceivable that in such a huge system, hundreds of "people" suddenly lose their minds on the same day and seek their own death, what kind of event can it be considered a major event?
If they are all concentrated in a certain village or town at the same time, they can still have the capital to become famous local grotesque legends, but they are all scattered and evenly distributed in different parts of the entire surface world. Trivial.
The technology tree of the Material Plane has not been deliberately banned, and the Church of the Gods does not oppose the development of technology, but the overall backward productivity, and some places can very quickly use supernatural power instead of processing Question...
All of these still make the impetus to promote the development of technology insufficient, and the overall level is still quite backward.
For example, gunpowder is in the ascendant, and steam power has just started. It is only in the first-tier cities of some principalities and kingdoms that the rare works of artisans, alchemists and inventors can be seen.
This is probably the case, so there are major shortcomings in terms of transportation methods and communication technology. Even the big news like the death of the king is often at least three or five months after it reaches the border. time.
Not to mention the local rumors of these trivial "local youths who are disabled and mentally disabled, crazy to death, and finally get hammered".
Even if it spreads to the village or town next door, it will only become a joke after dinner, and no one will really care.
Even if you take 10,000 steps back, it's useless for someone to care. After all, everyone is already dead, and the mage's divination can only confirm whether the soul has entered the Styx or reincarnated as a bad demon. The lower abyss does not care. These things.
The virtual personality of the unfortunate party has also been reset long ago, and the memory records are directly emptied, of course, the problems about the player will not be exposed...
Unless the soul is actually ascended into the hidden kingdom of a god, there are restrictions on the player's choice of characters. The preset characters that the player can replace at most are the level of shallow believers. .
This level of soul is not enough to become a petitioner after death, so the gods naturally don't notice the problem.
It can only be said that everything has been arranged early, and the whole world continues to run in an orderly manner.
Even at this time, some powerful legendary mages observed the starry sky above their towers, trying to fortune-telling; or some gods were bored and cast their sights out of the hidden kingdom, watching the material plane or what happened in the astral world.
At most, they found that the river of destiny seems to be turbulent, and it seems that there will be a great era of great waves and dragons and snakes—
But that's all, it seems that it is a natural thing for a plant to grow and eventually bloom and bear fruit. No matter how much you search for guesses, you will feel that everything is normal, and you will not find anything wrong.
At most, I wonder if the civilization process of the Material Plane has been going on smoothly for so long, and it has finally reached a critical point.
For example, whether it is the friction and conflict between various ethnic groups, it has reached a very dangerous critical point, and it is tied at a close call; or it is the accumulation of progressive materials and technologies, the spontaneous demands of the people of various ethnic groups, and the upper-level rulers. Also believes that a war is needed for the greater good...
Perhaps all of these factors are invisibly exerting their influence together, prompting the arrival of a big era. It's hard to say whether the times create heroes or heroes create the times. Anyway, in such a big world, it is normal for dragons and snakes to coexist.
After vaguely aware of the future trend, a few strong people are worried, but more people in the know are looking forward to it. After all, chaos means more opportunities.
None of them doubted.
Because everything is so normal, even if there is a huge change coming, it is like the process of the world has accumulated to a certain point, and the node that appears naturally is like a plant sprouting.
And like the whole Little Garden universe is a self-contained cycle, everything in the whole world is so just right.
All the laws and constants seem to be like this, as if the natural evolution over a long period of time has finally shaped such a complete, logical and self-consistent grand system.
What's so suspicious about this?
At least the existence in this box will take everything for granted, and no one has ever doubted why the world exists, just as no one has ever doubted the meaning of the world's existence.
Even the gods above are like this, they seem to exist in the world for granted, and they seem to take for granted an important unit in this world-
"Belief-Faith-God"
In order to maintain their own existence and continue to strengthen their own divine power, they must continue to collect the power of belief, and there are also interests, competitions and positions between them. , and the gods have fallen.
Some can come back, and some disappear completely. The same priesthood, but the deity sitting in that position is not necessarily the same as the original one.
Perhaps because of this, the gods who originally stood at the apex of the entire world were most likely to be the first to explore the entire system and discover some unusual things from it, but they did not do so at all.
They were all held back by their beliefs, and they were also urged by an invisible sense of crisis to invest most of their time and energy in the war of beliefs.
The gods with weak powers will spend more time on beliefs and collect more beliefs to improve their own strength; gods with powerful powers will try their best to maintain their advantages, and at the same time in this never-ending battle Try to exclude people who might threaten you in long distance runs.
This creates a vicious circle, where the question of belief naturally limits the possibility of these beings exploring the whole box and eventually discovering the problem.
But for the creator outside the box, this is a stroke of genius, a virtuous circle.
This design allows the gods in the Little Garden game to devote all their attention to collecting beliefs, and this was originally one of the main goals, that is, to help Suwako collect beliefs.
Speaking of which, the origins of the gods in the Hakogawa game are also very clear-
Suwako's title is the pinnacle of the indigenous god. She is not a **** of cumin, but the leader of various gods, so she can control birth, agriculture, military and other aspects at the same time.
She has the power to control the gods, the manipulation of the gods is the embodiment of her effectiveness, and the control of the gods is her jurisdiction. In ancient times, she was even a **** who was able to govern the "Suwa Myojin" who possessed an astonishing faith.
Suwa Myojin is a terrifying god, and Suwako's ability to control Suwa Myojin is enough to explain a lot, not to mention that she also controls various other gods at the same time. The ability characteristics are just right to be used to embody the gods in the Little Garden game in disguise.
As I said before, in the realm of consciousness that has been reduced to this level, a fireball technique in the real world, placed in the game of Little Garden, is the huge energy that ignites the stars.
Similarly, as long as Suwako separates the various related divinities under his control, he can become the relevant manifestations of various powerful divinities and priesthoods in this world.
It can be said that the gods from this are actually equivalent to the gods under her jurisdiction, but the gods themselves do not know.
After all, the relevant information in the divinity has been cleared, and the existence of the divinity can't find the problem. Only the deepest connection still exists, but it is beyond the level of the box.
And the behavior of the gods trying to collect beliefs is equivalent to collecting beliefs for the superior of Suwako, but they don't know anything, and they think it is for themselves, so the level of consciousness and effort is naturally very different. .
All in all, so far, the results of the crowdfunding creation have been quite smooth, and everything in the box is under the control of the "observers" outside the world.
Congratulations, congratulations.
……
……
Material Plane, the Southern Duchy of Cadilon, outside a small village in the Sunland Hills.
Wearing a robe and a hood, she has successfully become a 1st-level mage, or a slender girl who is an apprentice, humming a tune on the path.
Because of the nearby hot sand mines, the local environment is very special. In a sudden hot wind, her hood was blown off, revealing a golden hair and a pair of slightly pointed pointy ears.
Elizabeth was in a good mood, or rather, quite good.
She never imagined that this game would look like this. Just as soon as she touched it, she was completely addicted to it, and even regarded this game as her second life.
Because of her personality issues, her start was very smooth, and perhaps because the character she chose was also called Elizabeth, which greatly enhanced her sense of substitution, she did not encounter the experience of most other players at all.
I was stabbed to death by a random knife and burned to death at the stake...
These nightmares and psychological shadows are all unrelated to the girl. With the help of the obvious hints and clues given in the game, as well as the help of guidance such as being able to see the names of people she knows, she plays very well. its own role.
Once she was integrated into the environment, she began to explore, which was also very smooth.
——This world is dynamic and real. While giving a head-on blow to malicious players, it will also give kind feedback to players who are well-intentioned, curious, innocent, and measured.
So by chance, she became the apprentice of a reclusive witch near the village, unlocked the profession, and was promoted to one level, directly with those players who lost their lives at the beginning, and because of psychological shadows, did not enter the game again for a short time. A considerable distance was drawn.
In the process of learning to improve herself, Elizabeth also discovered that the game is really dedicated to the pursuit of truth.
Even leveling up isn't just about farming monsters to gain experience, and then moving up a level with melodious sound effects and light falling from the sky... It's more difficult, challenging, and fun.
But it seems that the level cap is not crazy. It is said that professionals above level 10 are very rare, and those above level 15 are already heroes sung by many bards.
So it's acceptable.
The girl put on her hood again in the hot wind and walked quickly towards the teacher's residence. This time she came out to buy some supplies. After returning, she will continue to spell books, take notes, and do experiments...
Mage's self-improvement is quite hard-core, but under the only preferential treatment in the player panel, she is not so persuaded to quit. Elizabeth also finds it very interesting, enjoying it and enjoying the process of enriching herself little by little.
She thinks the design of this game is really interesting, and it's so real-
Even those spell models and occult principles seem to be well-rounded and well-defined. Make her wonder if in the real world, as long as she has magic power, she can really reproduce the real effect.
It's just that players like girls are extremely rare.
Most of the other players were hit hard and caught in a tangle of love and hate. They obviously didn't want to give up, but the shadow of death and the impact and fear left behind were too strong for them to dare to make persistent efforts immediately... …
As for the Internet, for this year's big melon, basically everyone is still watching jokes, sneering, verbally criticizing, and strongly criticizing!
However, with the passage of time, some live video gradually began to flow out, and the trend of public opinion began to change.
The kind that make a 180-degree turn!
