Chapter 294 Divinity and Humanity
The gods in the multiverse world are not all-knowing and all-seeing. Many of them were once humans and retained a part of their humanity compared to their divinity.
But no matter who he was, the guy who can seize the godhead, ignite the divine fire, and eventually become a god must have something special about him.
Having said that, let’s not talk about what is outstanding, at least Li Chengqi found that the appetite of these guys is quite extraordinary...
Six kilograms of mutton slices, three kilograms of prawns, various meatballs, crab sticks, shrimp slippers, and a lot of vegetables sent by Jiu Ke. It was all a clean bowl. I just added water to the hot pot three times. .
"I, I can't lose to the evil god..."
Heirones picked up the last piece of crab stick and stuffed it into his mouth. Talona, the only evil god present, rolled her eyes and ignored him.
Of course, he might have rolled his eyes.
Seeing this, Aidas had a belly that looked like she was ten months pregnant. Maybe she was worried about the fall, so she put her belly on the table and laughed:
"Haha! You lose!"
While speaking, a whole beef ball came out, and Aida quickly stuffed it back.
As a result, Philohir laughed loudly, followed by a huge burp.
Enough is enough...
The ecology of these guys was an eye-opener for Li Chengqi.
Since tree elves don't eat meat, Li Chengqi thought that Adasi didn't eat meat either, so he asked Jiu Ke to send a lot of vegetables. Unexpectedly, she ate more mutton slices.
What's even more inexplicable is that at the dinner table, they actually became obsessed with winning and losing, saying that they could not lose to the evil god Talona, and they rolled around several times while eating.
Although a little speechless, I have to admit that they are very adaptable. Everyone can use chopsticks, even more proficiently than Li Chengqi.
Fortunately, not all the gods were eating with the obsession of stretching themselves to death. Luosanda and Xia Ruisi, who were sitting on the left and right of Li Chengqi, were considered normal.
Xia Ruisi may have requirements for body management. Although she has a hairy head, her appetite is still normal for a woman.
Lathander has always maintained a polite and normal eating speed. I wonder if it has something to do with the fact that there are many nobles among his followers.
"We haven't always been like this."
As if he could tell that Li Chengqi had something to vomit, Luosanda wiped his mouth and said calmly:
"We usually stay in the divine realm. At that time, our divinity was far beyond human nature and we lost most of our emotions."
A god is only a god when he is in the divine realm. Once he leaves the divine realm, he becomes as easy to kill as a mortal.
"What kind of place is God's Domain?"
"Have you never been to your own divine realm?"
Li Chengqi shrugged. He had only heard of this term recently.
Perhaps out of politeness, Lathander did not ask the reason, but said:
"Each god has his own divine domain, which is equivalent to an independent plane floating in the endless void. Our void is equivalent to the space on the earth. From the perspective of the mortal world, the divine domain looks more like the night sky of stars.”
Charis next to her added:
"Each god's divine realm is different. It will change according to the will of the god. In the divine realm, you can do many things that are unimaginable to mortals, such as creating matter out of nothing, reversing the laws of physics, etc."
"The most important thing is that only in the divine realm can God perform his divine duties."
"So, it's like a place to work?"
Lathander thought for a while:
"almost."
Li Chengqi has never seen his own divine realm, which may be because he has not yet collected all the Demon King's Rings.
"When we stay in God's Domain, we take the goals required by the priesthood as our first criterion. This feeling is difficult to explain. It is a subtle feeling that you are no longer you."
"Why is this happening?"
"Because the Godhead will transform your mind."
There is no requirement to obtain the Godhead. Even if you are a vicious criminal who is full of evil and has to eat steamed buns with human blood every day, once you obtain the Godhead of Justice, you will be instantly transformed into a righteous person by the Godhead. This change cannot even be noticed by yourself. I thought I had figured it out and was planning to put down my butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately.
In the same way, when you possess the godhead of justice, you will not do any unjust acts, and such thoughts will not even occur in your mind.
"Talona is the god of plague and poison. For us good gods, she is a target that must be eliminated, but you see, it's not a big deal if we eat together."
Talona herself obviously heard it, but she just rolled her eyes and didn't say a word at all.
"There is no personal enmity between us. Our conflict is mainly due to the clerical opposition. Of course, there are exceptions. The relationship between Aidas and Talona is not good."
"You mean, your conflict is just about work?"
"Yes, when we are gods, we must perform our clerical duties, so there will be conflicts. When we leave the divine realm and our thinking is not affected by our clerical duties, this kind of conflict does not exist."
"Then why don't we all find a place to have a good chat?"
"The problem is that when you come out of the God's Realm, it doesn't mean that your enemies at work also come out of the God's Realm."
Intellectually, I know that I have no personal vendetta, but I will be coerced by the priesthood. When the enemy sees you leaving God's Realm, and he doesn't leave, the first thought in his mind is to use this opportunity to get rid of you, instead of having a good talk with you.
After all, as long as gods leave the divine realm, they become as easy to kill as mortals.
"So everyone has basically no chance to leave the divine realm, and this behavior itself is not a good thing. Your thoughts will gradually merge with the divine nature, and become more and more inhuman."
"Will it be like a robot?"
"Somewhat similar, but the consequences are more serious than that."
Loshanda took Talona as an example:
"She has the priesthood of disease, which requires her to spread disease throughout the mortal world, but you and I both know that this is impossible, after all, there are other gods stopping it. And when the will of the god is completely merged with the divine nature, this impossibility will be regarded by the divine nature as the god's own failure, so the divine nature will abandon the god and leave, and at this time the god will completely fall."
The words are true, but the situation described by Loshanda is subtle and extremely long, and many gods have not fallen for ten thousand years.
"It sounds like staying in the God's Domain is not a good thing?"
"It is like this for God, so we usually try to find a safe place to leave the God's Domain for a while, give ourselves some time to relax, and maintain our will."
Losaunda looked around and smiled:
"Earth is a good place. The power of the gods cannot affect here, so we can move around safely as mortals."
"Uh... Haven't you thought about coming to Earth before?"
"I thought about it, but it's impossible. I don't know the specific reason. It may be because we are too closely connected with the multiverse world."
"So it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise"
Li Chengxi asked again :
"Did you notice anything when you were knocked down?"
"I told the people from the Nine Departments that I didn't notice anything. Aidas did mention the golden rod, which reminded me of a powerful magic item that had long been lost."
Losaander used his finger to dip into the cola in the cup and drew a vertical line on the table, and then drew a line similar to light at one end, and then said:
"It's called the Staff of the Warlock King, which can exile a god from the divine realm. I guess someone may have used a special method to amplify the effect of the Staff of the Warlock King and knocked down almost all the gods."
This thing was also the first time Li Chengxi heard of it.
