Don't call me evil god

Gale grimaced and looked helpless.

"You haven't died just now, so you don't know what's normal."

"The Lord's miracles have become more powerful now. After death, if you choose to [resurrection] here in the stone castle, you will have one more choice."

"You can not only reshape your physical body with your own original body, but you can also use the body of a dwarf."

"You think I want to continue being a dwarf?"

"In this place of Stone Castle, humans can't complete the construction of spell models at all. The arcane energy is too active. In order to ensure combat effectiveness, I have to continue to use the body of a dwarf."

"If I want to leave the stone castle in the future, I will have to commit suicide again just to transform my body back into a human form."

Bron Freeman next to him was dumbfounded.

Even if I witnessed with my own eyes that these helpers who believed in Novan, the god of knowledge, came back to life in the battle, why did they come back from the dead... and still choose their own race? !

If you want to be a human, then be a human, if you want to be a dwarf, then be a dwarf?

So should they be considered Stonecastle dwarves, or some new dwarf subrace? !

In just a few days, Bron felt that his world view was about to be overturned.

Peter was also full of curiosity: "If you calculate it like this, wouldn't you be able to live nearly 300 years with a dwarf body?"

Humans are a short-lived intelligent race on the continent of Prentice. If we really want to talk about it, they have to sit at the same table as goblins and ogres.

The average life span of ordinary people is about 40 years old, which is also due to the help of glow magic in treating common ailments;

If you are richer, your life span can be extended to about 70 years old, and then you will die due to excessive aging.

Professionals have been blessed by the gods, so their theoretical life span is generally longer. Professionals of level 3 and above can normally live to be over 100 years old.

Of course, this is just theoretical data.

Because the mortality rate among professionals has remained high.

Those who die in battles with monsters are often professionals who are only 30 to 50 years old and in their prime. They have lowered the average life span a lot.

Generally speaking, the overall life span of human beings is only a few decades. Living to be over a hundred years old is definitely considered longevity.

Dwarves are considered a semi-immortal race, with an average lifespan of more than 240 years. Although they are not as good as freaks like dark elves, they are definitely a long-lived race compared with humans.

Peter was curious about whether his lifespan would also be extended if he was replaced with the body of another race through the altar of creation.

Gale pouted: "You're thinking too much."

"Remember those people who collectively came back to life through miracles some time ago? Many old people have passed away."

"Some scholars have studied the issue of racial lifespan before, and they believe that the length of life is linked to the soul."

"For example, human souls will undergo obvious aging after decades of cleansing in the mortal world, leading to inevitable death."

"Even if the god of death has fallen asleep, death is still equal to all people."

"So - if nothing else happens, if I stay in the body of a dwarf, according to scholars, I will still die in a few decades."

…

Noven's observations are even richer regarding the bodies of different races reshaped at the altar of creation.

Noven also had to sigh with emotion.

"The desire for knowledge is indeed the greatest wealth of an intelligent race."

Even before this, the so-called changing of races was almost an urban legend, but mortals would still curiously explore its secrets.

Scholars in the past made judgments based on observation and analysis. Although they could not find the real reason, their views were in the right direction.

The length of life is linked to the soul.

From Noven's perspective, he can see more information from the complex souls of mortals. The feeling of the soul of this world to Noven is somewhat similar to the concept of genes, but the effects are obviously different.

Give the "young soul" and the "aging soul" the same young body.

The former will adapt perfectly to the body;

In the latter case, the body will experience rapid aging over days, weeks, and months until the body matches the soul in terms of "age."

Through magic, potions and other means, the external body can be changed in a short period of time, but when these extraordinary powers lose their effect over time, the body will continue to be affected by the soul.

As for the so-called "aging", Novin's observations are even more interesting.

The soul itself does not actually age significantly.

What really affects the soul is actually this world.

When a newborn is born, his soul is born in the mortal dimension at the same time.

As it grows into adulthood, the soul will become increasingly intimate with the mortal dimension.

This is when the soul is most in harmony with the mortal dimension.

But as he moves from prime age to old age, his soul will become increasingly repelled by the mortal dimension.

The more serious the rejection and estrangement are, the weaker the connection between the soul and the body will be, and the phenomenon will be the aging of the body.

During this process, this world is trying to drive the mortal soul out of his body.

Until the final so-called final moment of death, the soul is completely driven away by the exclusionary barriers of the mortal dimension and can no longer stay in the carrying body.

Different races have obvious differences in the speed at which their souls are rejected by the mortal dimension.

The human soul is very fast and will be driven out in just a few decades.

The soul of a dwarf is much slower, and this process will take more than 200 years to complete.

This has nothing to do with the body that carries him, but only with the soul.

Therefore, Norwen can basically draw a direct conclusion:

If you simply put the soul of an individual of one race into the body of an individual of another race, at most you can only inherit the various characteristics of that body.

But at least in terms of life span, it is determined at birth and has nothing to do with the body presented to the outside.

…

After listening to Gale's speculation and explanation, Pete sighed: "Well, as expected, the world is still fair."

He didn't think it was a pity that he couldn't prolong his life, he was not greedy.

The magic of [Resurrection] that Norwen gave them has made them almost free from fear of death.

No need to worry about accidents;

No need to worry about dying in battle;

No need to worry about not having time to say goodbye to relatives and friends;

They can use decades to fully experience all the beauty of the world.

This is enough.

The general understanding of death on the continent of Prentis is that death is just the starting point of another great adventure. The soul of a mortal who has been cleansed of sin will eventually ascend to the kingdom of the god he believes in, where he can enjoy a new life, or completely erase his memory and start a new life.

Moreover, they can't care about life span now.

There are more urgent things in front of them:

The stone spirit fetus was forcibly awakened by the cult messenger. If they don't want the stone fortress to be completely destroyed, then they have to find a way to get rid of those terrifying monsters!
