Alien paradise

Chapter 157 The Name of the Evil God

Most people believe that gods are born from the prayers of the world and are a specific response of people's collective will. That is, prayers come first and gods come later. Whether it is the Goddess of Benevolence or the God of Storms, they are all gods created under human cognition.

Corresponding to it is the ancestral god.

They may have appeared much earlier than humans, or even earlier than this world. They are all over the universe, or they may be in another dimension. The Ancestor God can exist without believers, but if it wants to influence the world, it must rely on the power of believers, so it will trick people into becoming its believers, thereby penetrating the barriers of this world.

Therefore, the logic of God first is completely reversed, becoming God first and prayer second, which is contrary to common sense.

Precisely because such existences are older than humans, they often present images that humans cannot understand and appear to be incompatible with this world. No matter where they appear, they will bring unimaginable destruction.

Later gods are born based on human ideals and wishes. Their images and words can be understood by humans. They will also fight against the first gods in order to protect their believers.

Therefore, even if some post-gods do not have many prayers, such as the God of Storms who was born because of the Tritons, they will still be regarded as the true gods. Even if it sometimes stirs up strong winds and huge waves and swallows ships on the sea, people can get positive responses as long as they offer sacrifices and please the gods according to the rituals.

The Ancestor God is completely different.

They seem to be another type of existence, incomprehensible and unable to communicate. The only thing people can feel from the ancestors is the infinite unknown and unfathomable fear.

This is also a feeling derived from animal instinct.

Therefore, they are all regarded as evil gods.

After Chaoyang heard this, he asked Dan En another question - how many evil gods exist now that they can name?

The answer Dann gave was two, one big and one small.

One is the "Rotten God" and the other is the "Hidden Mist Envoy".

From a literal perspective, this does not look like the title of a terrifying evil god.

Unfortunately, the reporter doesn’t know much about theology, so when asked about the source of these evil god anecdotes, Dane couldn’t answer.

But one thing he can be sure of is that there are more than two evil sects. Each sect has its own understanding of the 'oracle', and will even kill each other. Therefore, whether it is the Church of the Righteous God or the armies of local lords, they rarely directly mention evil gods, but regard cultists as their primary targets for elimination.

"Huh..." Judy's hand suddenly stopped on an old letter, "This letter is a little strange."

"What's strange?" Chaoyang put down the teacup and asked immediately.

"There is no signature or signature to identify yourself. It looks like a note." She showed the letter to Chaoyang.

As Judy said, there are only two short lines on it.

"Vance White will pass by Overlook Hill tomorrow."

"The maximum number of guards around him is twelve."

Uh...sounds like the employer was reminding Blacksteel that it was time to do something, like they had done with so many dirty deals. However, this letter does not even have a signature, so it is of little significance to keep it as a handle. Naturally, it is impossible for Paradise to pursue such an old case.

"Vance White?" Dane was also attracted, "This name sounds familiar... Wait, is he--"

He suddenly stood up, walked back and forth twice in the base, and then clapped his hands suddenly, "Commander of the City Guards!"

"Ah? Isn't the commander of the city guard called...Sandra?" Chaoyang admitted that it was quite difficult to remember the names of these people.

"No, Sandra Allen is the current one, and Vans is the previous one."

"I remember it too." Judy nodded repeatedly, "Vance died in an accident three years ago, and the whole city held a mourning meeting! What does this letter mean? Could it be that he was not in an accident, but because of Black Steel Did the security take action?”

"If that's true, that would be crazy!" Dann was also a little in disbelief. Does Albovich even dare to take this kind of job? Did he really not understand what would happen if he offended the lord?

"No...if Abvich had already become a cultist at that time, it wouldn't be a big deal to take on this kind of job." Chaoyang thought, "I'm more curious about who gave him the commission. This Lord Commander Do you have any enemies?"

"I have to check the reports at that time." Dann seemed to be very interested in uncovering the historical secrets. "But theoretically speaking, even if the commander-in-chief of the City Guards had an enmity with someone, the latter would not risk his whole family being hanged. The risk is to murder him. A conflict of interests is more likely."

"Think about it from another angle, maybe he discovered that cultists exist in the upper class society of Glory Castle?"

"Uh... did the cultists sneak into the city three years ago?" Dann thought for a moment, "Except for the serial murders, nothing earth-shattering or bad has happened in the past three years. It's not like hiding and not taking action. Cult style.”

"Did they have a short preparation period for committing crimes in the past?"

"My impressions are basically within a year. Because there is a risk for them to enter the city, each church regards arresting cultists as the first priority, so once there is an opportunity, they must take action immediately."

"It makes sense." Chaoyang nodded, and then joked, "But there is another possibility, that is, they want to do something big. If they don't take action, they will leave their name in history."

"Hahaha... you are so funny." Dane said with a smile.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, "Your Majesty the Envoy of God, are you there? I am Jenny."

"Come in, the door is unlocked." Chaoyang replied.

The latter opened the door, bowed his head and saluted, "The city guard commander is here again. She said she wants to see you."

In the reception room, Chaoyang handed her a cup of hot tea, "It was just dawn today, and you came to visit us. It really makes us citizens feel more at ease. Could it be that there is a result in the bombing case?"

For the first time, Sandra did not show a polite smile, or even drink tea, "I have been trained to sleep four hours a day. It is true that the bombing case has made great progress. We are currently highly suspicious that it was carried out by black steel security." This bombing.”

"Then you have to arrest them quickly."

"I just thought it was a pity that the city guards couldn't arrest a dead man." Sandra leaned forward, like a hunter ready to go, "I did underestimate you before... I thought it was fate. The company needs help, but I didn’t expect that it was actually humiliating itself. I am here to find out how you investigated that Black Steel was the mastermind behind it and destroyed it overnight. Mr. Chao, what is your best choice? It’s better not to hide it, I came here alone and tried my best to be sincere, I hope you can understand.”

Chaoyang knew she wasn't lying.

She did not come with an army to ask questions, but came as a visitor, which was indeed a great restraint - especially when she suspected that the Gate of Destiny was related to cultists.

And this was not beyond his expectation.

The front-foot pharmaceutical factory was bombed, and the back-foot murderer was eradicated. As long as the other party conducts an in-depth investigation, it is impossible to avoid suspicion of the Gate of Destiny and the Yeni Temple.

Of course, he thought it would take the city guards several days to investigate to this point... It seemed that the police system in this world was not as tight as he thought.

Chaoyang smiled, reached into his arms, took out a mask and placed it in front of the other party.

Seeing the familiar red and black patterned mask, Sandra's eyes suddenly shrank to a point!
