Chapter 617: Jedi Vitality
How many days is it now?
Jenn looked up, rubbed his dark eyes, and looked out the window. I saw that the sky outside the window was still so blue, the clouds were still so white, and the world was still so harmonious......... Oh, it looks like it's not dark yet, read another one.
Thinking of this, Jenn lowered his head without hesitation, opened the heavy history book in his hand again, and began to read the contents carefully. At the same time, he held a quill in his right hand and wrote and drew on the parchment next to him, without the slightest pause.
"Alas, even before the college entrance examination, I have never been so focused......... As a result, I actually have to review history again? It should be the soft bed and the girl's body temperature that suits me, not this damn broken book that is already moldy......"
While complaining to himself, Jenn turned the page again, and at the same time complained with broken thoughts. But complaining is complaining, and the speed under Jenn's nose is not slow at all. From time to time, his left hand flipped the heavy pages in front of him, and his eyes turned over and over again.
If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. Just as all students who are about to take the college entrance examination have to take a hundred sets of three-year college entrance examination and five-year secret exams, Jenn also needs to carefully investigate the matter of the Demon King's ritual assessment through other people's records. Of course, this kind of thing will not be written too clearly in the record, but this is not what Jenn cares about. But the more important part, that is, all the assessment questions in the Demon King Ceremony are randomly selected? Or do it according to everyone's limits?
If this were a game, then Jenn wouldn't have thought about it. Since players can only receive quests after reaching the level, it is certainly not too difficult to complete them. It's more about the player's own skills. But this is reality, not a game. Considering the urine nature of the Demon King ritual. It's hard to determine whether all this was a coincidence, an accident. It was still premeditated.
However, Jenn believes that this should not be random, after all, this kind of task is too bad. That's why he had to look at the records of other demon king's rituals to prove his guess. And now, Jenn has finally discovered some hidden deep problems, so that he can prove his inference, that is, although these assessment questions seem to be all kinds of arbitrary at first glance, in fact, they are all related!
For example, the exam question for the pursuit of saints mentioned earlier. It was because the Holy Maiden Catherine at that time was the most powerful priesthood in the main plane, and as a holy woman who was deeply favored by the aura of God, Catherine could be said to be perfect in all aspects. And for the lower realm, it is naturally best to lure such a holy woman to fall.
And the exam questions that expose their identities and stay in the main plane for three hundred years naturally have their own peculiarities. In fact, the quality of the sons of the demon kings in that demon king ceremony is generally not high, and it can be said that before the ceremony really began, the identities of this group of people were exposed, in this case. Only then will they receive the assessment question of "three hundred years of hard work in the main plane".
In other words, these questions were based on the situation at the time, and were not randomly selected.
Not only that, but what made Jenn care more was that. Although many of these questions sound unbelievable, and even give people a sense of "I'm going to you, are you going to play me?" The illusion. However, in the end, there were people who passed the test safely, and there was no one who passed the test.
Once or twice can be said to be accidental. But there have been hundreds of Demon King rituals up to now, and there have been no problems. From this point of view. Then Jenn's previous fear of random selection without looking at the situation has been ruled out. But that wasn't enough, and he had to find another answer. If your guess is correct. If the assessment of each demon king ceremony is based on the situation at the time, then this means that the topic this time is also in line with the world.
But the gods have fallen......... Is this really possible?
Flipping another page, Jenn reached out and pushed his glasses. The first large-scale fall of the gods was during the Creation War, but records from that time cannot be used as a reference. After all, it was still the ancient period at that time, and the gods and demons lived together, and it was convenient to live in the main plane and fight. But now the gods have gone to Sinapus, and the demons have gone to the lower realms to spend their days drinking. The two sides are not on the same plane at all, so naturally it is impossible for something similar to the time of the Creation War.
And the large-scale fall of the gods, except for the creation war, seems to have never happened again. After all, both sides also learned their lessons after the Creation War, except for a few fools such as Bane......... Well?
Thinking of this, Jenn was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately thought of a question.
When did Bane fall?
The answer to this question is simple, it is the Battle of the Sages. At that time, for some reason, all the gods were forced to enter the main plane as saints, which set off a scuffle. In the Battle of the Sages, many gods were killed for various reasons, and their priesthood was replaced and swallowed by others. Bane was one of them, and the mortal who killed him, Maca, was given the title of God of War and then became one of the Nine Saints. And this battle of the Sages has also become the most serious loss of the upper and lower realms after the Creation War.
Wait, that is............
Thinking of this, Jenn's eyes brightened, and then he slapped the table vigorously and stood up.
That's right, it must be so! The gods have fallen! Although it is said to be a fall, it is not said that there will be no heir to the fallen priesthood. In the current situation, it is impossible to get a true god to descend to the main plane. But if you can repeat the battle of the Sages, then it's easy!
But there's a catch.
That is, no one knows what the last battle of the Sages was all about. It is also unclear why so many gods and demon kings are forced to descend from the Sage. Before that, even if Jenn found a solution, he could only stare dryly. But now, it's a different story.
He may not know about the Battle of the Sages, but someone does. For Jenn, that's enough.
As for who that person is......... The answer is obvious.
Valrhona has been in a bad mood lately.
It should be said. Ever since she had deciphered the Tablet of Fate, Valrhona had been in a depressed mood. The Tablet of Destiny records everything in this world. Naturally, this includes the things that the gods can say and can't say. For Valrhona, this is a great shock to her life values. It's like a guy who still believes in Santa Claus. An innocent and cute child, but inadvertently sees a book with inappropriate content for children (and the kind that does not play mosaic). As a devout believer, there is nothing sadder than watching Valrhona's ideals collapse.
However, Valrhona did not feel sorry for herself, on the contrary, she has been receiving Jenn's guidance and teachings during this time. Jenn needs to know the contents of the Tablet of Destiny through her, and at the same time, he will explain and explain the situation to Valrhona. Although the Tablet of Fate said that it could record all things, Valrhona only saw impressions after all. It's like people watching movies. Most people know to watch those thrilling scenes, and only those film critics can see the humanity contained in a certain shot or a certain set of a movie. Jenn does something like a film critic, Valrhona will tell him the history recorded on the tablet of fate, and Jenn will explain to her why.
Of course, as a demon, Jenn, who is full of mouth cannon talent, did not choose to deliberately slander those gods, on the contrary, he explained it objectively and neutrally. But that's enough for Valrhona, she's still a child, after all. And he is a child who has not tasted the suffering of the world. In her heart, she had beautiful fantasies about faith and gods. But when the veil of her fantasy is torn apart, she finds that those revered and beloved gods are just as vile and insidious. On the cunning side, Valrhona's feelings for them will naturally become much weaker.
Now Valrhona's ideals have changed. Before, she wished she had become a priest. But now, she plans to be a historian. According to the lordship, dig out the history behind this continent.
"Knock Knock ........."
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Hearing the knock, Valrhona turned her head.
"Please come in."
With Valrhona's answer, the door opened, followed by a series of footsteps. Hearing the footsteps, Valrhona's originally slightly nervous expression gradually relaxed. She knew very well that it was the sound of Jenn's footsteps. Sure enough, soon, Jenn's voice rang in Valrhona's ears.
"Hello, Valrhona, how are you doing?"
"All is well, my lord."
Hearing Jenn's inquiry, Valrhona also hurriedly gave an answer.
"Where do we start today?"
"Today's ..............."
I don't know what the reason is, Valrhona always felt that today's lord was a little strange, and his tone seemed to be a little unusual?
Soon, though, Valrhona heard an unexpected answer.
"So, let's start with the Battle of the Sages today."
"Battle of the Sages?"
"That's right."
Hearing Valrhona's inquiry, Jenn nodded. He smiled and sat across from the girl, looked at her carefully, and then spoke.
"The Tablet of Destiny must have a record of the Battle of the Sages, have you ever heard a story about it?"
"When I was at the temple, I did hear some rumors about the battle of the Sages.........
Valrhona recalled, then nodded. Then she didn't say anything more, but reached out and pressed her hand to the tablet of fate in front of her, and then lowered her head. Soon, a golden light emerged from the tablet of fate, enveloping the girl's body -- after several exercises, Valrhona had learned how to read records from the tablet of fate. For now, she's doing pretty well.
After a moment, Valrhona withdrew her right hand, and the girl looked up and replied with a slight hesitation under Jenn's expectant gaze.
"That......... Sorry, I didn't find ..............."
“………… Huh? (To be continued.) )
