I am God Chapter 234: : Do not look directly at the mission of God and the ferryman
The name of the city-state established by Alpens is the Suinhor City-State Alliance, and Suinhor means blood and fire.
It means that Alpens built this city-state out of blood and fire, but it also has other meanings.
Blood represents the **** who bestowed Alpens, and fire represents the inheritance of the Fire City.
Alpens is a charismatic character and a natural general and commander. He can lead his followers and subordinates to victory.
However, he is not good at governing the country.
After he established the city-state of Suinhor, he was at a loss as to how to govern the people under his rule.
But Alpens also has a good habit, he can subdue the people he approves to govern the country for him. Use his charisma to use others to his service.
He appointed talents who came to serve him and built a new city-state bureaucracy system, using them to govern the city-state alliance and manage various complicated affairs.
The bureaucratic system in the early days of the city-state was very simple, only divided into three classes.
The highest level is the royal family, which is the family of Alpens.
One is the swearer, that is, the person who swears allegiance to the king to the gods, and can also be called a nobleman.
There are also servants, who manage cities and territories for the king, various city lords, and territorial nobles.
The servants did not have a complete system and title before, but Alpens divided the servants into different responsibilities and handled different positions separately.
The palace that has been passed down from the time of the first generation of firekeeper Arsine.
From inside the temple to outside the temple, today is full of people.
"Do you want to make an oath today?" The snake man outside the palace walked past the pillar with his tail twisted, looking inside enviously.
"Why are there so many people here?" A snake man looked curiously at the people who kept walking into the palace.
"A lot of scholars and craftsmen, what are they doing?" A snake man noticed the identities of some of the crowd.
Those who entered the palace included followers who had sworn oath to the king of the gods, as well as powerful people who were waiting to become new nobles.
Alpens gathered a group of learned men in the palace, as well as technical craftsmen from all over the place.
The artisans of this era are also very powerful and important figures, who hold important knowledge and inheritance.
Alpens let them stand in the middle of the palace, asked them one by one how to govern the country, and asked them to make good suggestions.
He asked a middle-aged snake man who was the leader to come forward and asked him what he could do for this city-state?
"What do you think I should do? What can you do?"
The middle-aged snake man holds a leather book in his hand. This is a recording method that some scholars like to use to record words on the skin of the toothed beast.
Easy to carry and easy to record.
"The King of Gods."
"I think the king should build fortress cities on several other main roads going south, so as to prevent the people from the northwest tribe from attacking again."
"Only peace and stability are what we and the city-state need most at present."
This Alpens also has some plans, but he also has a better excuse when the other party proposes, and arranges some people to go outside.
"Okay, so what can you do?"
The middle-aged snake man replied: "I am a scholar, and what I am best at is recording history and writing."
"I think we should collect all the words and languages of the snake people and recompile them. After so many generations, the language of the snake people has changed slightly, and there are many more words; many The local text and language are very different from those in other places through transmission.”
"It is very necessary to recompile the classics to determine the official language."
Alpens ordered him to compile another book, called Suinhall Dictionary.
"If you can do well, I can appoint you to be the record servant of the royal court."
Recording servant is not a small position, it is very noble in this era, and you can enter and leave the royal court all the time.
The next snake man stepped forward and saw that the former was indeed appointed by Alpens, and he was also very excited and excited.
He said with high spirits.
"O king of gods!"
"My family is a family that is good at using the power of fire. I can smelt and cast bronze, and other members of my family can also burn pottery."
"I think Wang should promote technology and expand the workshops for smelting bronzes and workshops for firing pottery."
"Weapons are very important. They determine the outcome of a war. Bronze is even more needed when offering gifts to the gods."
"In life, we also need a lot of pottery."
"Our family is willing to follow the king of the gods, and burn pottery and smelt metal for the king from generation to generation."
Alpens stood up and looked at him very satisfied.
"I am very satisfied that you can come to serve me."
"Excellent."
"You can swear to me and become my follower. From now on, you will manage the smelting workshop and pottery workshop in the Fireguard City."
Then Alpens announced an order in front of everyone in the palace: "From now on, all people with technology can come to the palace to see me, and if it is useful, I can reward you with money and official positions." , you can even become my follower."
Alpens probably didn't expect that his appointment would greatly change the status quo of the snake people.
Many technologies that changed the appearance of the city-state continued to emerge because of one of his decrees.
The third person is a more serious and dull person, and he speaks directly when he comes up.
"We should write a code of law."
"When the Fire Guardian City was established, the situation of the first Fire Guardian Lord Alsini was completely different from ours now. The original law code is completely inapplicable to the Suinhall City-State Alliance."
"We must modify the current situation and write a new code."
Alpens also felt that it was very reasonable, and ordered him to make further amendments to the code of the Fire Guard City.
If he was able to accomplish this task, he appointed him the city-state's law-executor.
Alpens received these knowledgeable people and skilled craftsmen one by one, appointed dozens of servants, large and small, and also conquered a large number of people's hearts.
He sent his followers to build new cities in the distance. While developing the land, he was also preventing the animal husbandry tribes in the northwest from going south again.
He vigorously promoted pottery burning and smelting techniques, which completely transformed the snake-man civilization into the bronze civilization.
The city-state of Suinhor has entered a period of stability because of Alpens, and the snake people in the south have entered another period of rapid development.
And all this.
They were all seen by another great existence above the sky.
------------------
Dream world.
Sitting in front of the stained glass window, Yin Shen watched the changes in the world of snake people.
After so many years, the snake people's group has expanded to a very large level, and they are all over the coast, jungle, and plains.
Whether it's beside a swamp or a river, you can see the shadows of their communities.
They fished and hunted on the islands, they herded animals on the plains, and they cultivated fields on land.
This rich world greatly reduces the difficulty of their survival.
The only thing lacking is that they are scattered all over the place, and no one and power can gather them together.
The number has been increased, and now with the establishment of the city-state of Suinhor by Alpens, the snake people in the south have been completely united into one group.
Civilization is really on the right track.
They have really transitioned from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age, and have what a real civilization should look like.
At least, there are already signs of this in the snake people group in the south.
Yin Shen put down the mirror and suddenly looked out of the window.
His hand touched the hollow carving on the seat, which was exquisite and gorgeous.
This is created by the dream demon Xila with the power of a miracle, and it is also her favorite style.
"Maybe it's time to start."
The other side.
The ferryman roams in the fantasy star sea in a small boat, as if entering and sleeping.
He lay quietly on the boat with his head leaning against the side of the boat.
One after another, strange dreams passed by his side, and colorful mottled lights were projected from the dreams, falling on the boat and the ferryman.
Under the light, the body of the ferryman turned transparent little by little.
Suddenly he floated up.
Like a light transparent jellyfish, slowly floating up in the sea.
At this time, it can be seen that the ferryman has no body, his transparent body is constantly twisting under the pull of the starlight.
It is also like a mass of weightless water, swaying in waves as it moves.
He is a spirit being through and through.
If he appears in the world of mortals, he will dissipate in a short time. He must find a carrier before that, or rush back to the dream world.
This is the limit of the myth of wisdom.
Not long after the Ferryman woke up, he was automatically a myth of wisdom.
Or it can be said to be a demigod of the fifth level of wisdom.
He knows.
All of this comes from the gift of Sheila, the master of dreams, and God. If Sheila hadn't let him embark on the path of wisdom before leaving, he would have been annihilated at the moment of crossing the long river of time.
He also knew that his so-called power was not worth mentioning in front of the three great beings on the island bestowed by the gods.
The myth of wisdom and power has four unique powers.
Incomplete immortality: The myth of wisdom has an unstable mythical form, which cannot exist in reality. It must have a reincarnation carrier, and this carrier will not be able to last for a long time because of your strength. When it is damaged, you Must enter the next reincarnation.
The gift of divine magic: the myth of wisdom can bestow its own divine power on others, and let mortals become their own priests, even if this mortal has no talent; Will die because of unbearable strength.
The source of divine power: You are the source of divine power for priests, and each of your priests is a carrier of your reincarnation; when your priests do not all die, you will not really die.
The Gate of Desire: The Myth of Wisdom All the power will overflow from the body and become a special gate, which is related to your way to a higher path.
Different from the little man in a bottle, he has truly become a mythical existence through the path of wisdom. His flaws and hidden dangers are much smaller than the little man in a bottle, and he is also much harder to kill than the little man in a bottle.
Once his true myth develops, it will not be easy to let him fall into a deep sleep, let alone kill him.
The distance between the ship and the ferryman is getting farther and farther.
He gradually moved away in the sea of stars, and went deep into it.
At this time, the ferryman suddenly woke up, and his figure was pulled back to the boat from the depths of the fantasy star sea in an instant.
He turned over and looked towards the direction of the shrine.
God called him.
"Is my mission coming?"
The ferryman showed a little smile on his face, and his eyes were full of expectation.
There is still desire.
The ferryman boarded the pyramid temple and came to the main hall.
The **** is sitting on the seat of Sheila, the master of dreams, against the sunlight outside the window, so he can't see clearly.
The light and shadow twisted on the ground, just like the waves on the boundless sea.
The ferryman knelt on the floor of the distorted temple, calling out to the god.
"God!"
"I'm coming."
Yin Shen looked at the ferryman, and his eyes fell on him.
The origin of the ferryman is very strange. He was originally a cup of the sun, which was planted in the burial place of the poet Tito. into the sea.
Following that, because he devoured the prince of the Volcanic Kingdom, Wishausen, he possessed wisdom and omnipotence and turned it into a cup of desire.
The dream fairy Sheila lights up his power and makes him a ferryman, but because of the nightmare, he can only have a black shadow, relying on the fairy dream egg to exist.
After the death of King Henir, he returned to the Star Sea of Dreamland, ending the karma with him, and thus truly possessed the half-human form.
He has an indissoluble relationship with Weiss and Henir, but they are not the two of them.
No matter from which aspect, his birth is full of stories.
God asked him: "Do you have a name?"
The ferryman quickly replied: "My name is Iva."
is the meaning of desire.
This name was obviously given by the ferryman himself, but Yin Shen felt that this name did not match: "I can't see desire in you, let alone feel those strong emotions."
Iva raised his head and looked at the god. He seemed to have something in his heart to say to the supreme **** Insai.
He is a myth of wisdom, and his sight is not so much a sight as a diffusion of spirit.
So.
The moment he raised his head, he froze completely.
His consciousness and spirit were burned for a long time because of looking directly at the true form of the god, and he lost his senses. His spirit body burst into stardust and turned into a vortex spinning in the temple.
The ferryman felt that his consciousness was being dragged into the vast starry sky, into the boundless darkness.
At this moment.
He felt as if he was completely frozen, trapped in the long river of time.
In an instant, it is thousands of years.
Eternal even.
And when he was about to perish in eternity, one sentence pulled him back.
The voice traveled through time in a superimposed state, caught up with the ferryman's consciousness and locked it.
The ferryman recognized whose voice it was.
It is the God of Insai.
"Eva."
"Your power has not yet pointed to the source, so you can't easily look directly at my true existence and form."
"When you looked at me directly when you were weak, you couldn't see the truth, you would only be shocked by the appearance and forget your memory."
"And you have become a myth, you can see the afterglow of my projection under the long river of time."
"At that moment."
"You will be truly dragged into the long river of time, and your consciousness will disappear in eternal silence."
It was only then that the ferryman's spiritual body recondensed from the stardust vortex, and only then did he regain his senses.
He quickly prostrated himself on the ground, never daring to raise his head again.
"God!"
"Forgive my presumptuousness."
He could only answer by looking down at the ground, but it could be seen that he was feeling panic.
When he fell into the eternal abyss, he even felt despair.
However, after tasting these two flavors, the ferryman had some aftertaste, which was an emotional force he had never felt before.
Taking advantage of this feeling, he quickly began to answer.
"Insai God!"
"I named myself Iva because I have never felt the power of desire before, and it is precisely because I have no desire that I desire desire."
"I, want to feel it."
"I want to know what its power is, why it can make people feel alive, and what magical power it has."
Yin Shen understood what he meant and confirmed his pursuit.
He is a myth on the road of desire.
Yin Shen nodded and didn't ask any more.
He told Iva: "I called you to give you a new mission."
The ferryman Iva has been waiting for a long time: "The great creator Insai!"
"What would you like me to do?"
Yin Shen: "I hope you will go to the world and plant a wish in the hearts of mortals."
------------
In front of the gate of the kingdom of gods, the ferryman stood quietly.
The golden ship came back from afar, visited the entire dream world, and returned full of dreams of life.
The ferryman gently caressed the hull of the sacred ship, his companion with whom he had spent countless years.
He watched it slowly enter the door and into the sea of stars.
And he is still standing in front of the gate of the Kingdom of God.
He is making final preparations.
His original body has collapsed over the years, because he lives in the dream world, and he has not created a new body before.
His old body died and became a seed.
At this moment.
He also threw the seed out.
"Go!"
A seed penetrated the light curtain and suddenly appeared in the mortal world.
It falls from a height, piercing the sea of clouds and the sky.
Finally landed on a piece of empty land.
It takes root in the soil and then slowly grows out.
It didn't take long for an extremely rare flower to grow on the ground. It had a dark black and silver flower cup, and its whole body exuded strange light and power.
This is a cup of desire.
A variant of the Sun's Cup soaked in the blood of the God of Wisdom.
The moment it really grew, an existence from another world occupied this body.
The cup of desire swelled rapidly, turning into a strange man in a smock.
He has a flowery lower body, but has a human head.
The man looked at the world with a blank look in his eyes, and he turned his head to look at everything around him.
The world is so vast.
The earth is connected to the sky, the sea of trees is connected to the river, and the blending of various colors seems to drown him completely.
He was born here once, when his consciousness was just formed.
He thought that when he came back again, he would find a familiar feeling in this world, but he didn't.
He can't see anything he used to be in this world.
Times have changed, the world has changed, and species have changed.
He originally wanted to say, I'm back.
However, when it comes to the mouth, it can only be reduced to one sentence.
"I'm coming."
The ferryman's smock danced and drifted away into the distance.
He skimmed through jungles, over lakes and rivers.
Finally, it stopped when people appeared in the sky, and landed on the ground again.
At your feet is the giant island of Ruhe, and in the distance is the kingdom of snake people.
The ferryman Iva stared into the distance, and walked step by step towards the kingdom of the snake man.
"It's started."
"My mission."
