Chapter 1338 The Curse of Mortals

"Here I go again!"

Today was the day when Aidas came again. She not only greeted Li Chengxi, but also greeted the magic broom that was sweeping the floor behind Li Chengxi.

After that, he skillfully went to find the charger in the living room. After all, it was not his first time here, and he had never taken the charger back since it was left there.

"It's the same as usual, Brother Li. I'll come pick her up in three days."

It was Gan Xiaoyan who brought Aidas here this time. Qian Sen couldn't go abroad because of the previous incident, but it seemed that he also had to attend a seminar in China. I heard that he left by high-speed rail yesterday.

"Come in and sit for a while? Let's have lunch before leaving. I bought some crayfish online."

"I want to stay for a while, but I have a mission."

Gan Xiaoyan turned around and was about to leave, but just as she took a step, she suddenly seemed to remember something and turned back and said:

"By the way, an order came down this morning saying that there may be abnormal weather in the next one or two months."

"The time when there was a rainbow in the sky and it kept buzzing for a long time?"

"Correct."

"What on earth is the reason for this?"

"My boss didn't tell me, so I don't know."

Even if she knew the reason, Gan Xiaoyan would not tell you. This is the characteristic of the Ninth Department. They will definitely explain clearly the things that are related to you, but they won't be able to tell you a single word about the things that are unrelated to you no matter how you ask.

All right, Li Chengxi was just asking casually anyway and didn’t really care what Section Nine was doing.

After seeing Gan Xiaoyan off, when I returned to the living room, Adas was already slumped on the sofa.

Li Chengxi was just about to turn on the computer when Adas suddenly said:
"Have you interfered with the mortal world on a large scale recently?"

This really happened, for example, the Giant of Light incident happened with Alyssa.

However, Li Chengxi did not admit it immediately, but asked:

"How did you know?"

When these gods landed on Earth, they probably had no way of learning about the situation in the multiverse. Moreover, Alyssa's side was an extremely marginal area, and the gods' attention was not there.

"Your divine power is about to overflow. It's obvious that you have used a lot of divine power recently."

Li Chengxi has been a god for a relatively short time, and this kind of flaw is not seen in the old gods.

Summoning sixty mechanical angels at once consumed millions of faith points, and the traces left behind were also very lasting. In fact, the Xuanshui Federation is still constantly sending scientific research vessels to the star field where Li Chengxi went crazy, trying to figure out what's going on with the strange power readings.

Li Chengxi originally wanted to tell Adasi directly, but then he thought that this was a bit too honest.

So he said:

"What happened to Qian Sen not long ago... the guy who used to send you here and whose hairline is getting farther and farther back."

After I briefly talked about the trip to England, Adas suddenly understood.

Li Chengxi asked:
"Is it taboo to interfere in the mortal world?"

"It's not a taboo, it's just a rule that has been agreed upon."

Aidas looked at the screen of the game console and said casually:

"Generally, we just send down saints, and rarely use divine power to directly interfere with the mortal world. I heard that this situation was more common in the past when there were fewer gods, but when there were more gods, everyone was more restrained." Li Chengxi could understand this. After all, if you do this, others can do the same, and in the end it will be a mess with no winner.

And when it comes to this topic, he cares more about the 'past'.

"What happened to Shen Shao before?"

"A long, long time ago, there were only a few active gods, but they were all very powerful. Later, the fighting between gods led to the fall of the ancient gods, or perhaps because of the fighting, more gods were created, and the number of gods increased."

"Was interference in the mortal world strong at that time?"

"Well, not to mention the distant past, about 10,000 years ago, Losander was very arrogant."

Ten thousand years ago, they actually called it far away and didn't say it...

"At that time, Lathander was still Amaunator, the Lord of Eternal Glory. He used to show his divine power everywhere and use the power of the sun to burn all the existences he hated. As a result, he has now become Lathander, the Lord of the Dawn, and even his duties as a sun priest are incomplete."

Li Chengxi really didn't know that Luo Shanda had such a past. He seemed easy to get along with normally.

"What happened?"

"I don't know. I wasn't there at that time."

Aidas put down the game console and thought for a moment:
"There is also the goddess of fate. Because she controls fate, she often teases mortals and even gods. In the end, she split into two and became the current goddess of luck, Tymora, and the goddess of misfortune, Benbasha."

Adas continued to count on her fingers and said:
"The moon goddess Sulun lost her ministry of love and beauty and became old. The great mother Ganas changed her name to Shantia and abandoned everything she had. Although she is still the most powerful ancient god, she also lost her ministry of forests and oceans. The great terror Moando was killed by a mortal hero, and his ministry completely collapsed. The former king of war Tagus was defeated by Tempus and was forcibly renamed Carigos to become Tempus' servant..."

As Adas counted more and more, her fingers soon ran out of space.

"In short, there are many, many more examples."

"Uh, they're all because of excessive interference in the mortal world?"

"I'm not sure. The fates of these gods are different. We have discussed this many times. What led to this outcome? The only common point we can draw is that they all tried to interfere with the mortal world. The gods called this the 'mortal curse'. Later, everyone agreed not to interfere in the mortal world. Generally, they let their believers do whatever they want to do. At most, a saint will descend."

Among them, the one where saints descend most frequently is Lathander...

It seems he still hasn't learned his lesson.

But let’s put Luo Shanda’s matter aside for now. Li Chengxi felt a little sweaty as he listened.

Shit, is there going to be a day like this for me?

He couldn't help but think so. After all, everything else was easy to deal with, but Li Chengxi had been interfering in Viola's situation from beginning to end.

Without Li Chengxi's help, the exiled princess Viola would have been captured and put on stage for Louis XVI's feast, and the situation would have been completely different from what it is now.

The 'mortal curse' mentioned by Aidas is actually a pseudonym, which is more like an invisible restraining force in the dark.

There is indeed a huge gap between gods and mortals, but this does not mean that you can do whatever you want. If you go too far, this restraining force will attack you.

To make an analogy, it is roughly equivalent to the way of heaven often mentioned in fantasy novels.

"Are you sure it's true?"

"No, but everyone is trying to avoid it. Considering there are so many examples, it's generally not something that is done lightly."

It is better to believe it exists than to believe it does not. Anyway, people usually don’t have any need to directly interfere with the mortal world, so they will naturally abide by it.

After listening to Aidas's words, Li Chengxi also felt that it would be better not to go too far in the future and try to use the advent of the Saint as a benchmark...
