Infinite Journey From Hogwarts

Cedric and Edmund visited Cu Chulainn's temple in the capital with a smile on his face. The temple was quite satisfactory, like a medium-sized museum. The statues in it told the myths and deeds of Cu Chulainn, and there were many tourists coming and going. Outside the temple, there were a crowd of church protesters.

Edmund asked suspiciously, "Is there any problem with this?"

Although all the temples built for Cu Chulainn also have priests, their work is more about providing services than preaching. This place is more like an open museum of ancient heroes than a solemn and solemn temple. Not really, can it really support the Conferred God Ceremony?

Cedric did not directly answer Edmund's question, but instead asked, "The proposal didn't pass, did it?"

"The resistance in the parliament is too great. There are not many devout believers among the conservatives. It is difficult for them to recognize a new god as the patron saint of the country."

Although the Federal Bureau of Special Events Handling and Research has great power in the superficial world, they are not able to do whatever they want. For example, their proposal to pass a motion to position Cu Chulainn as the patron saint of the country has not been successful.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, our goal has been achieved." Cedric said indifferently, this matter has almost no possibility of success, not only the power of the church will oppose it, but also the hidden beings in the world They will launch their power in the surface world to obstruct it.

But even if it is an obvious failure, their plan can be regarded as a success.

The position of Cu Chulainn as the patron saint of the country was handled with great fanfare by the Grand Commander, which naturally attracted widespread attention from the entire society. Cu Chulainn's divine name has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people following the confrontation between the Grand Commander and the Parliament. , Even ordinary people who don't care about politics and beliefs have heard of it.

"Our purpose?" Edmund looked at the smiling tourists around him. Although most of them were not prepared to change their beliefs, they were still very happy with today's free game.

After all, this temple does not charge any tickets, and the priests inside are mainly young and beautiful girls, which look very seductive.

Edmund quickly understood why Cedric built Cu Chulainn's temple more like a free museum, "You don't want to arouse the disgust of these neutral people?"

"It seems that you have figured it out. Most of the truly pious beliefs come from two situations. One is the cultivation of a long time and culture, and the other is the salvation from the gods in a desperate situation. In these two situations, we temporarily Neither, rather than pissing off most potential believers in order to win over a few superficial believers, it is better to build a more inclusive image and cultivate most of your potential believers, and when the time comes, these people will become the cornerstone of your faith."

That's it, Edmund nodded. Although most modern people don't have any beliefs, in order to cater to the mainstream of society, they will still declare their belief in the Almighty Lord.

If Cu Chulainn preaches forcibly, it will only cause more fierce resistance, and even establish an image of violating their beliefs in the subconscious of most ordinary people.

But now Cu Chulainn's temple not only does not have any missionary activities, but is open to everyone as a public entertainment facility, so people's resistance will naturally be reduced. After all, as a free museum, the construction here is still very good.

At least Cu Chulainn's god name has been known by everyone without any conflict, and with the advent of the extraordinary dawn, when God does not respond to faith, a true god who can respond to prayer must be able to quickly accumulate enough faith.

"But won't this affect the Conferred God Ceremony?" Edmund asked.

"Of course there will be some impact, but it's not a big problem." Cedric said, "First of all, the main support of the Conferred God Ceremony is not faith."

Hearing Cedric's words, Edmund showed a thoughtful expression. All the mystic knowledge she had learned emphasized the importance of faith to the true God, but now she heard another statement from Cedric.

"Is Odin a real god?"

"Of course." Edmund replied without the slightest hesitation.

"But when Odin conferred the gods, no human beings were created in his universe." Cedric explained with a smile on his face, "We call this type of true gods the innate ancient gods, and they were born as ancient gods. God holds the authority of the world, which also shows that faith is not necessary for true God, and even at a certain stage, they can completely abandon faith, just like God.”

"But this kind of existence is a minority after all. With the development of the world, the increase of mortal things, and the cultivation of the true god by the will of the world itself, the acquired belief in conferring gods has become the mainstream, but it does not mean that belief is necessary. The most important reason why the true God needs faith is to 'gather the power of the crowd'."

"'Crowd strength'?" Edmund looked at Cedric with a curious expression.

"In occultism, we call all intelligent life 'observers', because intelligent life has the ability to subjectively affect the river of fate, even if it is just a drop of water, but this is commendable, among which the innate ancient Gods are born as "strong observers", able to cover a branch of fate with their own world line, they are born with the ability to transcend fate, as long as the source is not cut off, even death can return from fate, this is the true god The biggest difference from everything."

"And such natural 'strong observers' are only a minority after all, and most mortal things are just 'observers', but what happens when individual 'observers' gather?"

Each drop of water is small, but enough water can form a river.

"It turns out that this is the reason why the true gods gather faith." Edmund sighed.

"Through the thread of faith, the true god can actually easily accept the identity of the believer as an 'observer'. When enough 'observers' gather, with the help of a huge ceremony that can roll up waves on a river of fate, the true god You can hold up the throne of God and temporarily detach yourself from the tributary of your own destiny. At this time, the true god and His believers are equivalent to a "medium observer". Although it cannot completely cover a tributary of the river of destiny, you can guarantee your own The River of Destiny is independent, so believers of the true god will not enter the Styx River for reincarnation, but according to the God-Man Agreement, transcend the rules of the Styx River, and reincarnate as petitioners in the Kingdom of God. According to Dongtu, it means jumping out Outside the Three Realms, not in the Five Elements."

"And the reason why the acquired belief in the true gods cares so much about belief is precisely because their power to transcend the river of fate is borrowed from the identity of the believer as an 'observer'. When the belief disappears, their gods have no support, and they will naturally fall back to fate. in the river."

"So the most important thing to become a god is how to become a 'medium observer' and a 'strong observer'? Faith is only one of the means."

"Yes." Cedric nodded, "Of course this has been proven to be one of the most effective methods. Another road is in the east, and it's called Jindan Avenue."
