Chapter 1148: Ramos' Mission
When the atmosphere of confrontation reached its peak, it was Ramos who was the first to soften it.
Not knowing Rod's purpose, Ramos had no way to target him in any way β in this case, he had to lower his posture to a certain extent.
"Tell me about it, maybe the great Ramos will help you."
And in the face of Ramos's steps, Rod did not continue to press - his ridicule and squeeze were in the final analysis just to gain some benefits for himself, since Ramos was soft, Rod naturally did not want to offend the controller of the power of the earth.
So, at the hotel where Sona was staying, Rhodes and Ramos had a cordial and friendly meeting - after one person and one turtle taunting each other, since neither could help the other, and neither could completely arouse the other's anger, then openness and honesty naturally became the only way to cooperate.
Rhodes outlined his purpose, but didn't say much about the specifics of the plan, saying only that he "had a huge influence on the Twin Cities."
Ramos is naturally well aware of Rod's concealment, and while he secretly scolds the little slippery head, he can only say that Shurima should not be caught in the flames of war.
"In other words, if Zelas and Azir do go to war, do you plan to mediate?"
"Of course not." Ramos waved his hand, "But I will guarantee that their battle will be kept under control, and Shurima will not allow rune wars." β
"It's like Nash Lamei?" Rhodes raised his eyebrows, "At a time when civilizations elsewhere are being cut off, Nash Lame has been able to keep its traditions alive. β
"Don't try to reverse my words, boy." Ramos looked at Rhodes, and his momentum gradually became dangerous, "Excessive curiosity is not a good thing. β
"That's why you live like a salted fish?" It's a pity that after the initial cooperation, Rod's words sharpened again, "Compared to those of Freljord, you are really ...... There are enough incompetents. β
"So you're still too young." Unfortunately, Rod's sarcasm had no effect on Ramos, "You don't realize how much difference Shurima and Freljord are - I can't say how much the ice bird and the sheep's head are, but if the stupid bear is on my side...... It is estimated that Shurima's battle will last for a thousand or ten thousand years. β
"And with whom?" Rod smiled, "Those beings on the Giant God Peak? β
Ramos didn't speak, but the default meaning was crystal clear.
"Then why haven't you been caught in an endless war?" Rod blinked, "Because you...... Too cowardly? β
"I-"
Ramos wanted to say something, but Rod didn't give him a chance at all.
"So, when the giant god appears, you retreat, obviously Shurima already has your worship, but in fear of the giant god peak, you sit back and watch the belief of the sun replace the belief of the dragon turtle - you watch the sun disc rise in the desert, and watch the warriors of the gods sweep in all directions......"
"Watch them fall and return to the West." Ramos didn't jump as much as Rod imagined, he opened his mouth lightly, directly interrupting Rode's gushing, "Then, everything will return to dust and dust to earth." β
"Cowardice is cowardice." Facing Ramos, the corners of Rod's mouth twitched disdainfully, "No matter how many reasons you find, it's also cowardice." β
"You see, you're still in the shoes of mortals." Ramos did not show the slightest anger or embarrassment, but his tone was full of emotion, "For mortals, dignity, courage, and wisdom are qualities worth pursuing, and you will sacrifice yourself for these qualities - but for the rules, as long as they exist, it is enough." β
Hearing Ramos say this, Rhodes suddenly froze.
"You are speculating on the incarnation of a great law with the honor and disgrace of mortalsβit is a pity that I never cared about everything you say, for for existence is everything; I need to be there all the time, to maintain the power of the earth, to watch him rise up, to watch him crumble, to rise from the earth, and finally to return to the earth and sand. β
ββ¦β¦ Are you proud? β
"Have you seen Qianjue?" Ramos did not answer Rod's words, but instead asked a new question, "Is it true that the Grim Reaper is the most competent god in your opinion?" β
ββ¦β¦ Yes. β
Although he didn't want to admit it, after Rod counted it carefully, he was surprised to find that Qianjue was indeed the most competent god he had ever seen, and after him was Anivia.
"But, do you know that the god of death was not Qianjue in the first place?"
"What?!" Hearing Ramos's words, Rhodes finally showed a different color for the first time, "Not Qianjue? β
"All the gods of death are sheep and wolves, but few people know that sheep are not the original sheep for a long time, and the wolf is not the original wolf - more than once, the gods that represent death have dissipated, and then the new wolf and the new sheep will wear the mask of the past and perform the duties of the god of death, the sheep will comfort those who face death calmly, and the wolf will hunt down those who try to escape death."
"What do you mean?" Rhodes finally frowned, "Why are you talking to me about this?" β
"That's my advice." Ramos pulled out a Milos beetle again, neatly pulled out one of the beetle's hind legs, and stuffed it into his mouth, "You're watching out for me, so I can't help much with your plan, so...... Let's just give you a little lesson from a different perspective. β
ββ¦β¦β
"What is eternal is the Divine, but without the humanity that is in harmony with it, the gods are no different from the law itselfβand in Valoran, the law is never immutable, and if the guidance of the Divinity is fully followed, how can the gods deal with themselves when the law changes?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Die out, then be born againβββ but after being born again, it will be a new god."
ββ¦β¦β
"So, sometimes I really envy Freljord's Ice Chicken's - Ice Nirvana, that's really a good way, each generation of Anivia is herself, but every time Nirvana can escape the turmoil of the law...... And a poor person like me, who has no other means, has no choice but to flee from the center of the conflict. β
"Why are you telling me this?" Rhodes understood what Ramos meant, but not his purpose, "I'm not a god. β
"Well, not yet."
Ramos shoved the remaining half of the Milos beetle's body directly into his mouth, then plunged headlong into the hole that had appeared earlier, and finally disappeared.
In the room, Rhodes narrowed his eyes slightly.
