Cthulhu Corrosion: Another World Rescue Plan

"Yes." Iyalian nodded and said half-jokingly, "Facing such a huge enemy, Lord, are you still willing to accept me as your knight?"

"You must be willing." Mo Yu said, "I am not the kind of person who abandons my allies for my own convenience."

Iyalian smiled lightly and continued, "Outside the sphere of influence of the Church of Light, there are still other smaller neutral countries and city-states and other non-human races. They are far away from us and the possibility of contact in the near future is not great. Let's introduce them when we meet in the future."

"Let's talk about the gods." He wiped the pattern on the ground with the sole of his shoe, "But it's better to go to the magician tower to talk about the secrets of the gods."

Mo Yu nodded and stood up first. He looked across the road and saw Niqiuqiu digging the ground with his head buried in the ground, looking like he was working honestly and in an orderly manner.

Mo Yu reached out to the knight and helped Iyalian up. The two walked back to the study. Mo Yu asked Iyalian to sit on the sofa, and he walked to the cabinet, took out the can of black tea, and found a can of freshly baked milky round biscuits bought from the player's shop from his backpack.

He brewed two cups of black tea, added some honey to one of them, put it on a tray with the milky round biscuits and brought it to the coffee table, and handed the cup of black tea with honey to Iyalian.

"When talking about these mystical knowledge, you still need some black tea to refresh yourself." Mo Yu smiled.

Iyalian took a sip of black tea, took a round biscuit and put it in his mouth, showing that happy and satisfied expression again.

—— Obviously a knight who is very easy to satisfy and tries to enjoy every bit of beauty in life, Mo Yu doesn't understand why fate treats him so harshly.

"Ozeria is a new planet, and it was born less than 100,000 years ago.

The core of world consciousness, planetary consciousness, was born about 70,000 years ago.

The emergence of humans and the formation of world consciousness were about 20,000 years ago. So that era was called the 'Age of Chaos'.

In the Age of Chaos, the rules of this world had not yet been established, and everything was in chaos and disorder.

Because of this chaos and disorder, people lived in misery, eagerly longing for and expecting gods to appear and clear all obstacles for them...

So, people's beliefs continued to condense, and a large number of gods emerged.

The gods who controlled natural elements were the first to appear - the gods of wind, water, darkness and light, earth and sky...With the reproduction of creatures and the progress of culture, There are all kinds of gods in charge of humanities - the god of war, the god of craftsmanship, the god of mystery...

So, that era is also called the "Age of All Gods". At that time, it was very simple to become a god. You only need to have faith, authority and cornerstones to obtain your own "rules". "

Iyalian took another sip of black tea, thought about it, and continued:

"Faith is the beginning of the road to gods. It is a powerful and stable prayer force. Without faith, there is no god. And faith needs a clear goal to converge, and this goal is the cornerstone. The cornerstone can be a fixed image, an object, or a collection of countless anchor points.

And authority is the domain and ability that gods control. "

"Does the authority of gods come from world consciousness?" Mo Yu asked.

Iyalian nodded: "It can be said that the authority of all gods comes from the world consciousness, because it is people's faith and wishes that give gods authority, and faith and wishes are part of the world consciousness.

In short, when everyone believes that the goddess of fate controls fate, then the goddess of fate gains the power to manipulate "fate".

However, this authority may also be divided. For example, in the Age of All Gods, humans believe in the Mother of Plenty, and the elves believe in the Mother Tree of Life, so the Mother of Plenty and the Mother Tree of Life share the authority of "nature" equally.

The authority of gods comes from many sources. Some are borrowed and requested by the gods themselves from the world consciousness, and some are automatically granted by faith. Gods can even devour gods whose authority intersects with their own to gain more powerful power...

But under normal circumstances, no matter how much authority a god obtains, these authorities are only held by the gods and ultimately belong to the world consciousness. The rank of world consciousness is higher than that of gods. The complete world consciousness can use the authority of all gods."

"I understand." Mo Yu nodded.

"Because people's beliefs are mixed and impure, in order to prevent the power of gods from being polluted and distorted, all gods will obtain their own 'rules' after gathering the three elements of faith, foundation and authority. This rule will become the origin of gods."

"What do you mean?" Mo Yu was a little confused.
