However, a question arose in Wu You's mind: if such a thing as the power of faith truly existed, it should have appeared long ago.
The number of the little lizards of the Youlan people can be described as numerous, or it can be said that Wu You never showed up and never acknowledged that she was their mother. Before and after, she only provided some spiritual guidance. Most importantly, after anchoring on Youlan Star, the perfunctory Kunkara motherhood completely turned into whoever had time would go, and she simply ignored it.
Other scattered extraterrestrial civilizations are in similar situations, but most are disorganized or were introduced to the concept of "gods" too early. While this mythologized the Earth sphere as a whole, it weakened their belief in a single god.
But the Nayi people were certainly devout to the Kraken, the giant sea monster, so why did they never produce such magical threads of faith?
After a moment's thought, Wu You understood.
The Nayi people are savage and primitive. Their worship of the Kraken is less a belief in the sea monster and more a reverence for power and a fear of the sea monster itself.
Meanwhile, the 100,000 believers at the altar of the Star God Temple in the capital of Dalos were in a state of spiritual sublimation, experiencing "divine salvation."
This is true faith.
Furthermore, the high-ranking angels have officially named themselves "Loxevis," which, strictly speaking, is a step closer to reality than ordinary acting.
The 100,000 Dalos followers gave birth to a true faith, and by sheer coincidence, they were placed in a state of fanaticism and steadfastness.
As for whether that's actually the case, let Bai Ze investigate.
...
The transformation of 100,000 believers from falsehood to truth is something everyone can sense, including Bama and the priests on the high platform.
When Inmar and Risop's small spaceship arrived, they were met with bewildered soldiers and believers whose faces were filled with truth, goodness and beauty.
Bibilut immediately explained all the causes and consequences to Inerma.
As representatives of the imperial regime, they could not prostrate themselves before the gods at this moment, but their gazes toward the sky were filled with awe.
Inmar thought with a touch of relief, 'It seems I won't die. But, Your Majesty, how will you face this?'
His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire is undoubtedly an autocrat. It should be said that all the emperors of the Dalos Empire were similar, valuing power very much. The only difference was the degree of tyranny and tolerance of their personalities.
But given the current situation, it seems that absolute imperial power is no longer a realistic option.
Inmar could even foresee that in the near future, the Temple of the West would spring up everywhere, and the imperial family might not even dare to take any restrictive measures.
However, all of this is still some distance away. At this moment, Inmarma is relaxed, and all the others can do for now is to observe from the sidelines.
On the altar, the High Priest of Bama was inevitably moved, and the 100,000 believers below stopped whispering and looked up at the sky with piety in their eyes.
After reflecting on the expectations of the true God, he felt that he was the only one of the Dalos who was qualified to have a sincere dialogue.
He calmed himself down, took a deep breath to quiet his mind, and gazed clearly at the Eye of God in the sky.
Now, the sky no longer simply shows one bright and one dark eye, but rather outlines a face, similar to but different from the statue.
He should be described as both more mysterious and more 'handsome'.
The High Priest of Bama certainly couldn't communicate through spirit, so he could only swear his resolve to the sky by shouting.
"My lord, please believe in the potential and unwavering determination of the people of Dalos. Under your protection, we will forge ahead!"
Other priests and believers also realized what was happening and began to repeat the words of the High Priest Bama. The sight of 100,000 people speaking in unison was quite impressive.
During this process, only old Bama muttered something in a low voice.
"But my time is running out." Then, with a touch of joy, he thought to himself, 'After that, I'll be able to meet the true God and stay by His side forever!'
Roxavius was initially enjoying the feeling, but when he suddenly heard Obama's mutterings and inner monologue, his eyes twitched violently.
But then he breathed a sigh of relief and comforted himself.
"Thank goodness, this is fake. There is no real heaven, and this old guy's soul won't rise up after he dies."
"You never know. Think about it, the thread of faith has already found you. Who knows, after Bama dies, his spirit might coalesce into a soul and accompany you in the same way~~"
Wu You's teasing voice suddenly reached Roxvius's mind, instantly sending chills down the latter's spine.
"By the way, it's one thing for you to break character, after all, those scenes with Saraso were a bit too much. But if you dare to destroy that old man, or extinguish his spirit, then don't even think about getting a script next time. Moved? Hehehe~~"
His master's next words caused his expression to change drastically, and the thought that had just arisen in his mind was immediately suppressed.
At the altar of the temple on the capital planet Dalos, the believers below saw the face of the god appearing in the sky suddenly brighten for a moment because of their oaths, and they all "sense" the god's recognition of their vows.
Little did they know that their god, Loxevius, was currently preoccupied with nothing but his thoughts.
'What to do... No! I can't let that old bastard die! I don't care about anyone else, but I can't risk it on him...'
...
Although the Dalos people's divine sacrifices were conducted in secret, they could not be kept in secret in the end.
On the one hand, ordinary Dalos people have their own social circles, and there are bound to be other civilizations in these circles. On the other hand, the imperial family is hesitant to issue a restriction order after witnessing the manifestation of the true god.
On the other hand, the Protoss people's attitude towards the Dalos people changed very significantly. They remained arrogant towards other civilizations, but they treated the Dalos people differently.
This is something that can be felt by all races at the Civilization Alliance Defense Headquarters and Starport. Whenever they see a Dalos, the Protos will usually stop and greet them politely, or at the very least, they will glance at them. On the other side, the Protos won't even give them a second look, and will only make contact with you if necessary.
Considering the circumstances surrounding the Protoss's hasty departure that day, many things can be pieced together.
Due to the alliance's principle of joint offense and defense, and under immense pressure from other civilizations, the Dalos royal family had no choice but to implicitly admit that they had come into contact with a deity—the creator from the ancient history of Dalos, and an being whose faith originated from the Protoss.
Meanwhile, the term "twilight of order" from the past universe has also begun to circulate.
This caused a great uproar among the high-ranking members of the Civilization Alliance, most of whom were skeptical, but it also sparked a trend of exploring their own civilization's history and beliefs.
...
A week has passed, and the high-ranking angel whom Wu You directly named Loxevis has been somewhat melancholy lately.
He had seen more than once that the scheming Saraso and some like-minded people, such as Carton, the werewolf chieftain, and even Saraso's nemesis, Night Owl Best, frequently gathering together to discuss something furtively.
The problem is, these guys deliberately let him see it; every time they have a gathering, Roxevius's eyelids twitch uncontrollably.
