What are the gods on the Crane Continent?

The answer is simple, gods are rules, and rules are power.

However, rules are also constraints.

The reason why Jenn is so careful about his path to godhood is because he understands it. Becoming a god is difficult for mortals to ascend to, but it is not a problem for Jenn. He is the son of a demon king, and he is not a mortal, and in all respects, becoming a god is just like the college entrance examination for Jenn, which may be difficult, but it is not completely impossible. Maybe if you're lucky, you'll be able to get a champion. But what's the use of that? If you choose the wrong school and major when filling in the volunteer, then no matter how high the score is, isn't it a crying fate?

You must know that there is no opportunity to change majors and schools to become a god, and the so-called lifelong examination is almost like this.

On the Klein Continent, there are two kinds of gods, one is the rule god and the other is the race god. Both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages, and if you use the game characters as an analogy, then the rule gods have an early advantage, they have mastered the rules, and once they become gods, they can immediately draw power from such rules. It's like a player building a character, and immediately after being born, he is connected and constantly receives a large amount of experience points from the system, and the early advantage naturally skyrockets. Because the god of rules is not limited to a certain race, as long as all races do what he knows the rules, then he can gain power from it.

For example, a half-elf judge who is trying a case sees through the deception hidden in the evidence of the lawsuit, and he goes through a series of investigations. The truth of the entire case is finally found, and the real perpetrators are finally brought to justice. Even if he wasn't a believer. He didn't even know what the True Eye was, and he didn't have the slightest faith in Thom. So when he's done with all this, will Tom be able to gain strength from it?

The answer is yes.

That's right, the characteristic of the gods of rules is that they are the rules, and the rules are them. They don't need believers to spend their days in the temple praising how great they are, they're not mortal kings, they don't need that kind of false faith and praise. What they need is the actions of believers. Because of their actions themselves, they are able to increase the power of the rules they have mastered and dominate, and ultimately strengthen the gods themselves.

But the other way around. This is also the binding of the rules to the gods. They can only do that, they can't do things that go against their own rules. The same goes for Thom the True Eye, he can refuse, but he can't hide it, let alone deceive it. Once he did, he would have suffered a major blow that would have led to a loss of power. Not only that, but the God of Rules can only do what is allowed him to do within the rules, and that's why Jenn is reluctant to inherit the throne of God of War, if he becomes the God of War. Then it was completely insulated from peace or something, and the only meaning of his life from then on was to start war after war until the end of the world -- I have to say, this life was a little too boring.

The racial gods, on the other hand, are much freer in this regard. They can do whatever they want, do whatever they want, and lie when they want. If you want to tell the truth, tell the truth, and kill if you want to kill. If you want to save people, you can save people. You don't have to think about whether it's your own way to do it, as the rules gods do. Whether the person who chooses to save is breaking their rules. Like Rose, as the god of the dark elves, she loves killing, betrayal, and intrigue. So the dark elves will do it, and please her. But on the other hand, if one day those dark elves suddenly become good people one by one as if they were brainwashed, and start to talk about four beauties and three loves, and are busy helping the old lady cross the road all day long, will Rose's strength weaken?

The answer is no, because she is the god of the dark elves, as long as the dark elves are alive, still prosperous, and still strong. Then Rose will still be as strong as ever, and she may be furious at the actions of these dark elves, but she will not lose her power because of it.

This is the advantage of the race gods, they may be weak in the early stage, but they may become quite strong in the later stage. Because one race god can get his hands on other gods. Like Rose, her main faith comes from the Dark Elves, but she is also compatible with murder, betrayal, and conspiracy. And become more powerful by mastering these minor priesthoods.

And Jenn is the same, his current succubus race is very, very weak, almost not worth mentioning, but if he can cultivate it carefully, let this race flourish. Then Jenn can first obtain powerful racial divine power as the "God of Succubus", and he can also target other secondary and weak priesthoods such as "deception" and "disguise". In this way, Jenn can gain power not only from the succubus race, but also from the rules between other races through other inferior priesthoods.

In this way, it seems that the race gods have more development advantages. But in fact, the gods of the race have one of their greatest weaknesses, that is, their origin -- they are, after all, the patron saints of a race. Take Rose, for example, she is indeed a very powerful demon king now. But as long as all the dark elves in the entire dark region are killed, then Rose will be nothing. And the rule gods are very difficult to kill, just like the former goddess of lies, she was overturned by the murdered prince and seized the realm of gods and the priesthood. However, a full thousand years later, her temple still lingered in the depths of some swamp on the main plane, and even with the only trace of divine fire, she almost turned it over. The reason is simple, unless all the creatures in the world stop lying, the goddess of lies will definitely not be killed so easily.

This is why the race gods rarely attack the rules gods, because it is too difficult to kill the rule gods, but it is easier for them to be killed themselves......... This is especially true of special races like elves, dark elves, and dwarves, and sometimes a plague that only targets a specific race can kill the patron saints of those races.

That's why Jenn sits idly by and watches Nadia gain the favor of the True Eye, rather than luring her to fall when she loses her power. For he knew very well what Nadia's favor meant to the Templar Order. During this time, the news that Nadia had fought alongside the "mob" for violating the rules of the Templar Order and had lost her power had spread throughout the Eagle Plateau. Although not many people among the commoners know about this, it is basically known within the Templar Order, because Nadia is the son of the gods, and such a person has always attracted attention from all sides since birth, and naturally it will spread quickly.

The gods are the rule, but no one in the Templars seems to remember this now, and they treat the gods as if they were mortal kings, mistakenly believing that they can gain the appreciation of the gods if they kneel in the church and pray, and then develop followers for their gods.

What kind of international joke is this?

The Silver Saintess Seren is in charge of navigation, but how many people in the entire continent know about her existence, and they don't know where to go because they don't know the Silver Saint? Hunters rely on the stars to find their way in the forest, travelers follow water sources to find suitable places to live, merchants sign at crossroads to guide them -- these things still need to be taught? And when they discern the direction and show the way, their actions themselves have added strength to the Silver Saintess.

Instead of taking a broken stick and singing in the temple all day long.

Jenn believed that once the Templars realized this, there would be an immediate change within them. And every Reformation will be a river of blood, and the not-too-distant future is conceivable, which will become a turning point, the beginning of a protracted war! When they learn that Nadia has violated the rules of the Templar Order, and is still being favored by Thom, the Eye of Truth, despite further violating the rules of the Templar Order, the entire Templar Order will be shaken!

Rules, or truth, would be a painful test for the clergy within the Templar Order. Jenn couldn't help but feel a pang of excitement at the thought of the not-too-distant future of countless believers who would raise their butcher's knives and wave their former colleagues for the truth they believed.

It's too beautiful to imagine......... However, this has nothing to do with himself, he just needs to watch the play calmly.

Thinking of this, Jenn restrained the expression on his face and looked ahead. At this moment, Nadia also saw Jenn and the others, and ran towards them with a smile on her face. Then he solemnly saluted Jenn and the others.

"Great, you're safe, Mr. James, Miss Tilis, Miss Aina."

"We're relieved to see you're safe, Miss Nadia."

In response to Nadia's words, Jenn quickly replied with a smile.

"Actually, it's easy for us, those undead are stupid, just lure them away, and then we can find a place to hide, it's not difficult. Miss Nadia's side is more worrying, but now it looks ........."

As he spoke, Jenn glanced at Nadia's divine armor that had changed form.

"Everything seems to be going well."

"It's going well........."

Sensing Jenn's gaze, Nadia smiled a little embarrassedly. Although she was favored by the true gods, her personality did not change. At least for now, and as for the future, we'll talk about that later. But Nadia was only a little embarrassed, but she wasn't stupid, just in an instant, the girl immediately came back to her senses.

"But now is not the time to talk about this, the culprit is still in this city, and we must completely eliminate him!" (To be continued......)
