Chapter 4507 Chapter 4509 [The terrifying truth]
Time flies, and five years have passed in the blink of an eye.
In these five years, Xiang Nan has been promoted from brigadier general to major general, with an annual salary of 3,000 pounds.
This is definitely a great income in Port Royal.
But Xiang Nan didn't care at all.
During these years, he mainly practiced martial arts and used meditation methods to continuously temper and strengthen his spirit and develop his potential.
On the other hand, it is to help the ocean goddess Corybusso attract believers and expand her faith.
Nowadays, Koli Busso's faith has spread all over the world, including America, Australia, Africa, Asia, and Europe, with nearly 100 million believers.
This also made Cory Buso very happy and willing to reward Xiang Nan well.
"If you really want to reward me, can you give me a soul defense artifact?" Xiang Nan asked tentatively.
"Soul defense?" Corybuso was stunned, then waved his hand, "There is no such thing."
"No? No way?" Xiang Nan was surprised when he heard this, "Then how do you defend your souls?"
"We can't prevent it, otherwise no gods will fall." Corybuso waved his hand, "The gods' consciousness will also be injured or even completely destroyed. At that time, the gods can only hide and recuperate, or disappear into thin air. ”
"How does the **** recover after his consciousness is injured?" Xiang Nan asked curiously.
"After a god's spiritual consciousness is injured, it absorbs the spiritual consciousness of believers to replenish it. The more firm and loyal a believer is, the harder his spiritual consciousness will be sucked." Corybuso explained.
"If the believers' spiritual consciousness is absorbed, won't they die?" Xiang Nan asked immediately after hearing this.
"They will indeed die, but they will die happily. They will think that they are called by God and will ascend to the Kingdom of God to enjoy blessings after death, so their death will not be painful at all." Corybuso said with a smile.
When Xiang Nan heard this, he felt chills all over his body.
I didn't expect these gods to be so terrifying. They not only treat believers as crops and absorb the power of their faith. After being injured, he treated believers as blood packs and absorbed their spiritual consciousness to repair his own.
It’s no wonder that no matter what **** they are, they like to develop followers and promote faith. It turns out that believers are so useful to them.
However, those believers did not know the true face of these gods. They thought that although they died, they were called by God and ascended to the Kingdom of God after death. Therefore, they died willingly and even wished to die for God.
"Oh my God... I didn't expect it to be so dark?" He couldn't help but sigh.
"What's so dark? Mortals are destined to die. It's just a matter of sooner or later." Cory Busso curled her lips and said, "And the vast majority of people die in pain, fear, sadness, and reluctance.
Dying for God is indeed joyful, happy, and full of glory, and even your loved ones will be happy about it. In contrast, sacrificing for God is actually the best choice. "
Xiang Nan blinked, and he didn't expect that Corybuso could actually tell a set of fallacies, and it had to be said that his fallacies were indeed quite bluffing, and I believe he could scare many foolish men and women.
..."Besides absorbing the spiritual consciousness of believers, is there no other way?" Xiang Nan asked curiously, "For example, some kind of technique that can repair spiritual consciousness?"
"Yes, absorbing the souls of believers in their own kingdom of God." Corybuso explained, "Otherwise, why do you think God would guide believers to enter his own kingdom of God after death."
"I thought it was for them to enjoy themselves." Xiang Nan shuddered.
I didn’t expect God to be so scary. When believers are alive, they must contribute their faith to them, and their souls after death must be absorbed by them to strengthen their own spiritual consciousness.
"Before they are absorbed, they will indeed enjoy blessings and bathe in divine grace." Corybuso nodded, "But when the gods are in danger, it is time for them to make sacrifices."
"No wonder. It's just like Odin's Hall of Valor, isn't it?" Xiang Nan suddenly realized, "The brave Viking warriors enter the Hall of Valor after death to contribute their last strength to the gods at the twilight of the gods."
"Yes, this is the best example." Cory Busso nodded.
"Can mortals use this method? For example, absorbing other people's souls to replenish their own souls?" Xiang Nan asked curiously.
"In principle, it is possible, but mortal souls are very fragile. Absorbing other people's souls can easily shake your own soul.
After all, your soul has no anchor. When the time comes and you absorb too many souls, you may forget who you are and lose yourself completely.
God’s ministry and believers are anchors that can stabilize God’s rationality. Even so, there are countless gods who are going crazy in the spiritual world. ” explained Cory Busso.
"It doesn't matter, I still want to know." Xiang Nan nodded, "Even if it's your reward for me."
"It's still too dangerous, so how about I give you an artifact?" Corybuso waved her hand, "The Dionysian Rod of Dionysus is a symbol of prosperity, abundance, enjoyment, and joy. As long as you hold it, you will always be happy. Or the snake staff of Asclepius, which can not only cure diseases, but also bring people back to life."
"Your collection is quite rich, but I don't want these two artifacts." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "Relying on the power of external forces is limited after all. I still prefer to rely on myself."
"You are really stubborn." Seeing Xiang Nan's persistence, Cory Buso could only nod and teach Xiang Nan how to absorb other people's souls. "Remember not to use it indiscriminately, otherwise, you will easily forget yourself." Who is it?”
Xiang Nan nodded, "Don't worry, I'm not killing innocent people indiscriminately."
The method taught by Cory Busso is indeed very evil, absorbing the souls of others to strengthen oneself.
But it's also very dangerous. If you absorb too many people's souls, you can easily lose yourself. Just like multiple personality splits, until the end of the split, you don't even know who you are.
Even gods can absorb too many souls and go crazy and lose their own nature, let alone humans.
But Xiang Nan still wants to learn.
After all, the power of the body always has limitations, but the power of the soul has no limits.
Moreover, he has had the experience of retaining life memories more than a dozen times, which is equivalent to absorbing the souls of more than a dozen people, without making too many mistakes, so he has a certain degree of confidence in himself.
It's just that the method of absorbing other people's souls and strengthening oneself is indeed somewhat evil.
Therefore, Xiang Nan decided to **** the souls of some people who had committed heinous crimes and deserved their crimes, so as not to harm innocent people.
"It seems that there are several pirates in the prison in Port Royal who are ready to be hanged." Xiang Nan suddenly thought.
