Chapter 1594: Sanctuary Ruins
After reading the research materials about the Prime God, Leo's understanding of the Prime God has not changed much from before reading, but his basic understanding of the Prime God has changed a lot.
Before reading the information, he believed that the primordial god was some kind of extraordinary life form like other gods in this world, but now he believes that the so-called primordial god is more like a concept rather than a specific god.
The reason why Leo's basic understanding of the Prime God has such a subversive change is mainly because all the research materials on the Prime God do not have a unified description of the Prime God.
Among these materials, most of them are folklore, and in these folklore, there are more than ten kinds of images of the original god, among which the most widely mentioned is a flame, which will cause people to lose their way when they are lost.
The time comes to guide those who are lost to the right path.
In the classics of other underground churches, there are more images of the Prime God, such as giants like mountains, such as a ray of sunshine passing through the woods, etc. In short, after reading these materials, people will feel that the Middle Kingdom region
Every plant and tree is the incarnation of the original god.
In addition to the fact that the Prime God does not have a unified form, there is no conclusion regarding the existence of the Prime God.
In a material that can be regarded as a heretical book, it records many things about the Prime God in the Middle Kingdom region, and also records many things in the Middle Kingdom region. It looks like a classic of the ancient Church of the Prime God.
According to the description of this book, the Prime God is the first self-generated god in this world. He is in charge of everything in this world and is also the incarnation of the world. After his death, his body and soul turned into countless gods, kind and just gods.
Part became the true god, and the evil and cruel part became the evil god.
When the Prime God ruled the world, humans gained wisdom and created the first kingdom. This kingdom was also the origin of all kingdoms. The location of this kingdom is the current Middle Kingdom area, and it is also because this kingdom is so famous.
As a result, the previous name of this plain has been forgotten, and it has been replaced by the name of the current Middle Kingdom region.
Although in Leo's opinion, more than 90% of the contents in this book have almost zero credibility, there are still many contents that may be true, such as the first kingdom that appeared on this plain, and the central
Origin of the name of the kingdom region.
Because the books he read from the City of Academics and Belmont Castle also recorded that the Middle Kingdom region was the first region in the world where a kingdom government system appeared. As for how big that kingdom was, there is no conclusion yet, but most scholars believe that
The initial kingdom was probably not very big, equivalent to a medium-sized town today, and its existence was very short, perhaps only a few years.
No matter how large this kingdom is or how long it has existed, its status in history will not be affected. The subsequent kingdoms are basically copies of this kingdom, so there is no problem in calling it the Middle Kingdom.
In addition, in addition to the highly credible description of the Middle Kingdom in that book, the statement that the Prime God is the first self-generated god in this world is also quite credible, at least in Leo's view.
Believe it.
Because after carefully studying the relevant content, it is not difficult to find that the person who wrote this book actually played a little trick on words. It is difficult to find out the clues if you don't think about it carefully.
The key point of this little trick is the first self-generated god. In layman's terms, the initial god is the first god born in this world, while the other gods are likely to be foreign and cannot be considered.
The first god born in this world.
Although there is no evidence to prove this, the possibility is not impossible, especially in this special world that is dominated by outsiders and may fall into the abyss at any time. It should be very difficult to give birth to a natural god through natural methods.
Moreover, Leo also thinks that the belief that the body and soul of the original god gave birth to other gods in this world after death is very credible, but these other gods have to be changed to other natural gods.
The reason why Leo thinks so is entirely because he has evidence, and this evidence is the divine origin left behind after killing Daru, one of the ocean gods. Based on Leo's research on this divine origin, this divine origin
If the origin falls into a corner of the world, it will one day be absorbed by a creature in this world and evolve into a natural god, just like its predecessor Daru.
This characteristic of immortality and the birth of gods is exactly in line with the description in this book of the death of the first god, whose body and soul gave birth to new gods.
However, after understanding some situations about the Primitive God, Leo felt a little confused, because if analyzed according to the details he knew, then the Primitive God here should have nothing to do with the Stone Throne, and naturally it would not be possible.
The crystal stone that can affect the Stone Throne is obviously inconsistent with his previous speculation.
After reading all the information, Leo did not continue to stay in the hotel. Instead, he left the hotel directly, rented a horse at the hotel station, and then rode out of the town, heading towards the legendary God of the Beginning.
Rush over to the ruins of the sanctuary.
According to many records that Leo has seen, there are only three ruins of the sanctuary of the Prime God that can be seen now, including two in the southern forest and the remaining one in the stone forest northwest of Barbarissa's territory.
, according to the walking speed of ordinary people, it takes about a day to reach the Stone Forest from the Barbarissa Territory, but if you ride a horse, the time will be shortened a lot, and you can reach it in less than half a day.
The ruins of the original sanctuary located in the stone forest were not the first sanctuary of the God of Knowledge, but according to the records in the book, that sanctuary was the largest sanctuary. By measuring the ruins that can still be seen today
, it is basically certain that the area of this sanctuary is basically comparable to that of Xiaocheng, a city where 100,000 people live.
From this, it can also be determined that this should be the main missionary location of the Church of the Prime God. If there is a place where more information about the Prime God can be found, then this should be the best place. Compared with when the Prime God first appeared,
It's much better in the cave.
Leo set out overnight, and it was daybreak when he arrived at the ruins of the Holy Sanctuary of the Beginning. He repaired in a small town outside the ruins of the Sanctuary, and then went to the ruins of the Sanctuary to collect clues.
Almost all the ground parts of the sanctuary ruins have been evacuated, and the bricks and stones used to build the ruins were moved to other places and became the cornerstone of a certain lord's castle. This is not only true for the ground parts, but also for the large-scale foundations.
A lot of stones were also pried away, and the entire sanctuary ruins of the Prime God were severely damaged.
However, with the funding of Barbarissa, some scholars from other countries who specialize in the study of religion and gods were invited here to restore the ruins. With the help of these scholars, the foundation of the entire sanctuary ruins was almost repaired.
It’s just that whether this repair can be fully consistent with the previous foundation remains to be discussed, but at least one result cannot be denied, that is, the repair of the foundation is equivalent to confirming the coverage of the sanctuary.
When Leo arrived at the ruins of the sanctuary of the Prime God, the scholars were leading their students to discuss the location of the main temple of the sanctuary. I don't know if these scholars deliberately delayed time to defraud funds. In short, the location of the main temple
The discussion has been going on for more than a month, and there is still no result.
Leo was not in a hurry to look for clues in the ruins of the sanctuary. Instead, he came outside the crowd who were discussing the location of the main temple and listened to the conversation among the crowd.
These scholars have now determined that five foundation locations may be the location of the main temple, but there is no conclusion on the exact location of the foundations. If the location of the main temple cannot be determined, then the locations of other religious buildings in the entire ruins cannot be confirmed.
In the absence of on-site inspections, Leo just stood as a bystander and listened to these scholars' discussions about the location of the main hall. He was also unable to determine where the main hall was because of their selection of the five foundations.
The address conditions were analyzed thoroughly, and even Leo couldn't find any major loopholes.
So after listening for a while, he broke away from the crowd and entered the ruins of the sanctuary alone. He walked towards the nearest place that might be the main hall, and then followed the cleared road and walked past other marked places.
What appeared to be the location of the main hall was until we walked around the entire sanctuary ruins.
Although the ruins of this sanctuary are severely damaged, this does not mean that the ruins are worthless. In fact, the real value of this ruins lies below the foundation.
Obviously those scholars did not discover that the ruins of this sanctuary were rebuilt on a pile of ruins. Under the foundation composed of huge stones, there was another layer of ruins buried in the soil.
For this reason, this ruins are preserved
It was very intact, so intact that even the traces of destruction were preserved. Leo could even vaguely feel the remaining breath of the gods' power from these traces of destruction, and among these gods' powers, there were many powers that Leo was familiar with, such as justice.
of divine power.
"Is it being besieged?" After scanning and collecting various information through the mental network, Leo couldn't help but have an idea in his mind, because judging from the traces of damage, this sanctuary was destroyed by at least a dozen of the divine graces of the True God Church at that time.
During the siege of the Paladins, the shadow of the divine spells performed by the senior clergy could be felt in the remaining aura of divine power.
There are various indications that the largest sanctuary of the Prime God was besieged by more than a dozen church armed forces from the True God Church at a certain time, and was destroyed during the siege, and then buried, and the True God Church is still being buried.
A sanctuary was rebuilt in the place.
As for the purpose of building this sanctuary, it was definitely not to continue preaching to the Prime God. After comparing the distribution of the buildings on the ground with the ruins of the underground sanctuary, Leo found that the function of the sanctuary on the ground was probably for
Block something in the underground ruins.
The locations of the five main halls analyzed by those scholars are actually correct, because the sanctuary on the ground is built with five main halls, and these five buildings disguised as main halls have only one purpose, which is to imprison the foundation.
Download banned items.
In fact, if those scholars were not obsessed with restoring the ruins, they should be able to find problems with the foundations of the five locations they marked, because among the stones used in the foundation of the entire sanctuary, only these five locations have the largest stones.
It is precisely because of this that the foundations of these five locations were able to survive the hands of those who destroyed the ruins of the sanctuary.
The foundations of these five locations were constructed very cleverly. The exposed parts of all the stones were polished blank surfaces with nothing on them, while all the surfaces facing inwards that could not be seen were covered with carvings.
Various symbols, patterns and holy emblems with profound meanings were included.
And these special religious patterns no longer produce weak forces all the time, and these forces are compatible with each other, like a whole, exerting a strong suppressive effect on the things placed in the ruins below, and this suppression
It also works in conjunction with other suppression methods in the ruins to imprison the things placed there.
Because these powers are very chaotic and mixed with the power of gods, the interference effect is so strong that even Leo's mental network cannot scan out which items are imprisoned.
After discovering the secrets hidden in the ruins of this sanctuary, Leo was not in a hurry to lift up the five foundations on the ground and take out the banned items in the ruins below.
Because the power generated by these five foundations is connected to each other, once one of the foundations is moved, it is equivalent to the other four foundations being triggered. There will definitely be a lot of noise by then. Leo has not thought about it yet.
The secret here is made known to everyone.
After figuring out the situation, Leo left the ruins of the sanctuary, returned to a small town next to the ruins specially built for scholars and workers who restored the ruins, and found a hotel to stay in.
Leo stayed in the hotel room for the whole day after that. As the sky got darker, the scholars and workers on the ruins of the sanctuary returned to the town one after another. After they returned to their respective residences to make some repairs,
They all went to the only tavern in the town to kill time. Only a few scholars compiled the contents of today's discussion into documents. After accumulating to a certain extent, they would send them to Barbarissa.
After confirming that the scholars and workers were back, Leo left the hotel and walked toward the ruins of the sanctuary alone. When he arrived at the ruins of the sanctuary, he was surprised to find that there were other people in the ruins, and these people
They are not ordinary. Even though the clothes these people are wearing now look like ordinary workers, he can still feel the weak divine power from these people. Obviously these people should be senior clergy of various True God churches, and they
