Chapter 142: Creating the Evil God
This is important information. The evil god cannot hear it, but can speak it. This characteristic seems to be the exact opposite of the machine soul.
The machine soul cannot speak, but can understand human words.
Zeus couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that the machine soul and the evil god were not the same thing, although they were indeed similar in some aspects.
Furthermore, summoning a machine soul will not cause pollution.
Speaking of pollution, Hughes looked at Chloe.
"How is it? Is it contaminated?"
"There is still a little, but it's not serious. Well, it seems that this is indeed a good method. Unfortunately, most people can't use it. Not everyone has the ability to purify pollution."
Chloe rubbed her forehead and said with some joy.
"Then I will continue to guess. I still haven't figured out what the evil god is."
"Come again? Honestly, I think it's unlikely. The evil god might be completely different from what you imagined."
"Completely different? Am I guessing the angle wrong?"
“.”
"I see. Am I being misled in the wrong direction? For example, summoning an evil god is not a true summoning?"
“.”
"It's not a summoning. There must be some reason why the evil god was born in the flesh and blood of the body? Will the extraordinary be contaminated and turned into an evil god?"
"Oh, that's not right."
Chloe sighed.
"Think about it carefully. You used the body to summon the evil god. In other words, the evil god can be born through a fixed process."
Chloe shut her mouth.
"At the same time, the evil god can also take away pollution. The evil god is cultivated by pollution!"
Chloe shook her head. "The evil god can take away the pollution because of our unique ritual. It has nothing to do with the evil god itself. The more you guess, the more biased it becomes. Let's give up."
"It has nothing to do with pollution? Then it has something to do with the extraordinary? Must some kind of extraordinary power be used to summon the evil god?"
"wrong."
This is quite interesting. The evil god is not bound to any supernatural power?
What could that be? It was hard to imagine that a mortal could summon an evil god.
When the Fire Moths performed the ceremony to summon the evil god, there were many extraordinary people involved.
Speaking of things that mortals can do, Zeus stroked his chin and narrowed his eyes.
He suddenly remembered the two boxes of soap that Alexei brought that day. The same production line, the same process, actually produced completely different things.
Those are also done entirely by mortals, and Hughes calls them - cognitive interference.
That is, interfering with the entire material world with personal cognition will indeed change the matter itself, but it will also lead to pollution.
If mortals can interfere with the world with their cognition, then can they create evil gods with their will? Combined with Chloe's statement: Evil gods are born from flesh and blood. The boots filled with water suddenly remembered the body of the worker, which was full of pollution.
If some other conditions are met, would it be possible to make the pollution of cognitive interference fall only on one body? Hughes thought about it, stared into Chloe's eyes and spoke:
"The evil god is another form of cognitive interference. Personal will interferes with this world, leading to the advent of the evil god."
Chloe's eyes widened instantly and she pursed her lips tightly.
Guessed it right.
Xiu Si was also shocked. He was a little dazed. The evil god actually came from cognitive interference! ? The wrong cognition of ordinary people could cause the evil god to descend into the world?
This. This. It turns out that the cultists are not worshipping an evil god, but their worship is actively creating an evil god! ?
The church is restricting people's thoughts because wrong thoughts can bring evil gods to the world! ! ! How does such a weird world work? !
No wonder the Candlelight Society wanted to kill the worker Zeus. The stories he told might have created one evil god after another. No wonder the church wanted to monopolize knowledge and technology. These things really bring pollution and destruction.
In fact, Zeus has always been curious about why a sect like the Fire Moth that yearns for scientific research is called a cult.
They are obviously rational and cautious.
Now it seems that knowledge always carries pollution, so learning knowledge is to pollute oneself. In the eyes of outsiders, they embrace pollution madly, and then deliberately shift their cognition to create evil gods. The purpose of creating evil gods is to take away pollution, and the purpose of taking away pollution is to come into contact with more pollution. Fire Moth.

The most dangerous one on the Candlelight Society's list of cults.
Hughes suddenly realized that in a crazy world, those who can remain sane are the craziest.
Hell, he should have guessed it when he found out that this group used the Candlelight Church as their headquarters.
If the truth is crazy, then the act of pursuing the truth itself is crazy. As Nora said, truly normal people, after discovering the truth of the world, use ignorance to protect themselves instead of going out to explore.
Oh no, maybe I’m actually crazy and I just don’t realize it.
Hughes quickly shook his head, and he suddenly remembered what Chloe said - a firm will has always been a high wall that stabilizes reality.
He needs to strengthen his will and firmly believe that he is normal and not crazy.
This is an idealistic world. It doesn't matter whether you are really crazy or not. As long as you feel that you are not crazy, firmly believe that you are not crazy, and unwaveringly believe that you are normal, then you can remain normal.
It doesn’t matter whether you are crazy or not. What is important is whether you feel you are crazy or not.
Chloe saw Zeus's expression change and couldn't help but sigh: "In fact, it's not that easy to summon the evil god. It requires meeting many strict conditions, so don't worry too much. As long as you are cautious, it's still very safe."
Hughes curled his lips and said, "Your methods are indeed very cautious, but your goals are not so cautious. Pursuing truth and knowledge have nothing to do with caution."
"So we are the fire-chasing moths."
Hughes choked.
“We are cautious because we are rational enough, and we pursue the truth because we desire it. This world may be a rotten mud pond, but we can still see the starry sky when we look up.”
Chloe laughed and really raised her head. Her gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the ceiling of the room, through the thick soil and bricks, through the stained glass on the dome, through the distant space of tens of millions of light years, and look at the unchanging stars.
What's so good about these things? She didn't know, she just yearned for them subconsciously, just like a moth yearning for a blazing fire for no reason, without any reason, if she liked it, why not pursue it.
Even if it turns to ashes.
There is nothing to argue about. They are cultists. It is normal for cultists to be a little crazy.
Careful, cautious, bold, crazy, this is the fire moth.
