Chapter 532 Original God
The plague was cured, which is of course a gratifying thing, but Perficott still carefully chose to continue to blockade the settlement and did not immediately unblock them. .
After all, this plague is not a simple disease. It also involves the Evil God Sect and must be treated with caution.
However, in order to avoid intensifying the conflict, Purficott showed up in person and explained the reasons to the residents of the settlement, saying that they could leave the underground shelter for the time being, but they still could not leave the settlement.
The residents of the settlement don't have much objection to this. After all, they usually don't leave the settlement much.
The life trajectory of people in this era was relatively simple, and they did not have such a large scope of activities. As long as food supply was ensured, their daily activities were limited to settlements and surrounding areas.
Now it is just restricting activities to the surrounding areas. Although it is slightly unchanged for the residents of the settlement, considering that the plague did break out before, in order to avoid the possible spread of the remaining plague, this The blockade is understandable.
After handing over the follow-up matters here to Griffith and Fulvio, Perficott returned to Chernobog with Princess Anne.
After all, Princess Anne is the heir to the throne of the empire. Although she has not been declared the crown prince, as the current first heir, her identity and status are unshakable, and she naturally needs to shoulder the corresponding responsibilities. responsibility.
Previously, to stabilize the public sentiment in the area where the plague broke out, expressing concern about this matter and going to the front line in person was a way to win over the people and show that they were close to the people. Now that the matter has been properly handled, the eldest princess will naturally There is no reason to stay.
Chernobog has a lot of things waiting for the eldest princess to deal with, not to mention Belloberg's part.
With Perfectkot’s decision to build a new city in Belloberg, various related matters are also being started one after another. There is an urgent need for someone who can oversee all affairs and has sufficient authority to make decisions. The person who decides will be arrested.
When these cities were built in the past, Purficott himself took charge of everything. Now that there is a more suitable person like Princess Anne, Purficott will naturally not let her idle.
After all, Princess Anne will take over the empire in the future, and she needs more experience in handling government affairs.
What better way to understand the intricacies of government affairs and the difficulties of people's livelihood than to focus on the construction of a city?
Especially this time, it also involves the placement of all departments in the empire's center, which makes it easier for Princess Anne to understand the situation of various departments in the empire and how they operate.
This is an excellent opportunity for the future rulers of the empire to understand and become familiar with the empire they will rule.
As for Perfectcott himself? Of course she could do these things, but she had no interest in them.
Compared with intrigues, intrigues, and even launching a palace coup to seize the highest power of the empire, perhaps the totem pole in the laboratory that she has always ignored interests her more.
Perfect found that he had always ignored the existence of totem poles and ancestor spirits. Although he did conduct some research at the beginning, those studies were actually relatively superficial and did not touch on the existence of ancestors. The nature of spirit.
Or to put it another way, Purficott’s previous research focused more on the study of totem poles, while ignoring the more critical essence of the ancestors’ spirits.
Because in a sense, the spirits of ancestors can actually be regarded as primitive gods.
Perfect didn’t react at first, or she didn’t connect the ancestor spirits with the gods at that time, but just regarded it as a culture of the local indigenous tribes and primitive alchemy. product. After all, in the process of researching the local indigenous tribes in the north, Purficott did find that they mastered some relatively crude and primitive alchemy techniques, but there were some unique features in them.
Among them, the ancestors’ spirits and the so-called blessings of the ancestors’ spirits are indeed very distinctive, but because the strength of the ancestors’ spirits is only that much, Perficott did not combine these Take it seriously.
However, when she consulted a large amount of information collected by the church, she suddenly discovered that the spirits of the ancestors were actually gods in their original form.
The large amount of information collected by the church clearly points out one thing, that is, gods are not born, and there has never been a being who was born as a god.
Even if two gods reproduce, they are still not gods in essence, but special creatures with divinity.
The spirits of ancestors can be regarded as this kind of special divine creature. As long as they continue to accept the belief and worship of believers, they can transform into gods after accumulating enough faith.
A simple summary is that in the primitive stage of human beings, like the aboriginal people in the north, they once worshiped divine creatures similar to the spirits of ancestors, and after gaining enough faith, these divine creatures became Gods of old.
Because of the brutal rule of the old gods, humans gradually deviated from their belief in them, and the old gods also withdrew from the stage of history for various reasons, leaving only sects that believed in the old gods and continued to cause trouble. , trying to revive an era when gods ruled over humans.
In other words, an ancestral spirit is an egg of a god that has not yet hatched. As long as it is watered with enough faith, they can hatch into new gods.
Without external interference, the aboriginal people in the north may have developed for thousands of years, and eventually accumulated enough power of faith to allow their ancestors’ spirits to hatch into gods. Thus establishing a powerful civilization.
But due to the intervention of the empire, this process has now been interrupted. The development of the local indigenous people has been affected and interfered with, and they can no longer provide enough faith for the spirits of their ancestors.
Of course, this cannot provide enough faith, which refers to the faith that allows the spirits of ancestors to transform into gods.
If we just maintain the continued existence of the ancestors' spirits, there will still be no problem based on the current population of aboriginal people in the north.
And this accordingly provided Purficott with a perfect sample for studying gods.
What is more suitable for studying gods than a real god? The answer is a deity who has not yet become a god.
It already possesses part of the essence of a god, but it is not a god yet, and it is not that powerful, so it is naturally more suitable for research.
As long as he can get the information he needs from it, Purficott will have a little more confidence in dealing with the return of the gods in the future, and will be more likely to surpass the so-called gods in the future and solve this doomsday winter.
