Chapter 53 The true meaning of the teachings of the God of Knowledge
"Cracking down on those lone Bloodtooth Gang members can dampen their arrogance, but in fact we have not touched on the essence of the problem!"
Peter analyzed: "Ordinary members are actually more or less important to the Blood Fang Gang."
"Eliminating these guys is just scratching the surface."
"The key is that the Blood Fang Gang can still rely on the evil god they have taken refuge in to continue to create new subordinates one after another."
"They are just following the orders of the boss above."
"If we want to truly solve the threat of evil gods, it's not enough to just beat up these lonely guys."
"We must have enough power to truly break into the territory controlled by the Blood Fang Gang and eliminate the key figures related to the evil god!"
"For example - several leaders of the Bloodfang Gang, and their leader Dursley!"
Gale, who was practicing quickly constructing [Arcane Missile] next to him, felt a little worried when he heard this.
"Since ordinary members can have level 1 strength, then the small boss is probably at least level 2, let alone the leader."
"With our current level, can we really compete with them head-on?"
Peter shook his head at first: "Unlikely."
The followers of the Seeking for Knowledge sect have to rely on group fighting tactics to attack ordinary members. They pick up the weak persimmons that are left alone and crush them fiercely. They face level 2 and level 3 enemies head-on, and they can't sneak up on them first, so they have almost no chance of winning.
"But..." Peter changed the subject, "I have an idea."
"In other words, I seem to have guessed the will of the great God of Knowledge."
"Do you still remember that there is such a sentence in the oracle?"
[During the event, justice points can be exchanged for corresponding knowledge points. Different exchange ratios are provided according to the progress of the event. 】
Last time, Peter didn't read the complete activity introduction carefully, and as a result, he was despised by Rena like everyone else.
He read it carefully afterward, so he noticed this sentence.
"Until now, the exchange ratio is still stuck at 10:1."
"The great God of Knowledge has actually warned us a long time ago!"
"This war will not end by killing a few gangsters, but a staged and step-by-step struggle!"
"What we did before can only be regarded as the first stage of the war."
"Now, it's time for us to move to the next stage."
Reina said thoughtfully: "So, Mr. Peter, what you are saying is that the operation against the gangsters of the Bloody Fang Gang is over, and we should adopt other strategies next?"
Peter nodded and said, "That's right."
"I propose that in the next three days, everyone should exchange all the remaining justice points on hand in exchange for the knowledge they need to improve themselves as much as possible."
"To deal with more dangerous enemies, we need to be stronger."
Hearing this, someone in the tavern couldn't help but question: "Mr. Pat, how can you ensure that your understanding of God's will is correct?"
"What you said is all based on your speculation."
"Why don't you just pray to our Lord Noven and ask him to help us solve the problem of not being strong enough to fight against the Blood Fang Gang?"
Peter explained calmly: "It's very simple."
"Didn't anyone find out?"
"The great god of knowledge, unlike other gods, has never directly intervened to solve the problems we encounter."
"At best, He only provides suggested methods, or required information."
"Even the combat skills, magic, and divine arts we have learned can only be mastered through our own efforts and practice based on relevant knowledge. We do not just pray to our Lord and it will directly give us power." "Just like what is said in the prayer."
"His existence is to lead us to explore unknown areas and guide us in the direction of progress."
"And keep us informed of how far we are from reaching our destination."
"What does this mean?" Pat asked meaningfully.
Everyone fell into deep thought.
Brandon was the quickest to react.
"I see!"
"The great God of Knowledge hopes that we can make our own efforts to learn and explore!"
“Instead of expecting Him to solve everything!”
"Can't He just use divine magic to destroy the evil god?"
"Can't He just give us strength?"
"Definitely not!"
"It must be because the God of Knowledge is guiding us. He hopes that we can overcome difficulties and eliminate evil through our own efforts!"
"Moreover, the God of Knowledge is actually paying attention to us all the time. He will tell us whether our actions are effective and whether our efforts are rewarded!"
Pet nodded in agreement: "Yes, I think this is the true meaning of the doctrine that the God of Knowledge wants to spread!"
…
In the Kingdom of God, Nuowen, who was always paying attention to the situation of the believers, could hardly hold his nerves.
For a moment, he really wanted to send a message to the oracle and tell these believers not to over-interpret it. He really didn't think about it that much!
It’s not that he doesn’t want to directly give power to help believers solve their problems.
But I really don’t have that ability!
If he really had a way to directly expose the evil god behind the Blood Fang Gang, Noven would have held a huge miraculous ceremony in Xiacheng District with great fanfare.
By then, won’t believers come in a hurry?
The key is, he can't do this.
It is true that giving power to believers can kill the evil god, because Novan is another evil god who is even more ruthless.
What is this?
The way to eliminate a threat is to create a greater threat so that the former becomes irrelevant, right?
Good news, I eliminated the evil god threatening the lower city.
Bad news, I'm more dangerous than that guy.
The idea of imparting knowledge and information was a choice Noven had to make at the beginning.
Now it is interpreted by believers as a deliberate guidance from the great God of Knowledge, in order to let them know how to solve problems through their own efforts.
As for the so-called change of exchange ratio according to the process in the activity.
It was Noven who added such a rule considering that he did not have much divine power at the beginning and was afraid that he would be squeezed out and drained of his divine power.
At that time, he just planned to find an evil force in the lower city to clean up, and use it as an experience pack to build the reputation of his sect vest.
They didn't even consider that the Blood Fang Gang had surrendered to the Evil God and their overall strength had greatly increased.
When he discovered that the Blood Fang Gang was having an affair with the Evil God, Novan was still a little worried whether the believers would be afraid or even give up because they found that the gap in strength had widened.
As a result, when his oracle was interpreted as a so-called reminder, it was to tell believers that they should adopt different coping strategies according to different situations;
Not only did the believers not give up!
On the contrary, I am even more motivated!
While Nuowen felt gratified, because the enthusiasm of the believers' efforts had been aroused, he decided to go with the flow and give them another helping hand!
