Chapter 165 Extraordinary Common Sense of the Metaverse

The floor is made of golden bricks, and countless huge stone pillars that reach into the sky are made entirely of jade. The church has no dome and is a completely semi-open space. The warm and brilliant sunlight from above shines directly down, making people feel an indescribable comfort.

"Welcome to the true sanctuary of my Lord." The fortune teller opened his arms with endless pride and honor.

Kuroba Kaito was stunned.

My goodness, that simple environment just now was just a cover. After all this time, it turns out that this so-called evil organization is not just a group of rats barely surviving in the sewers.

He really has a wealthy family!
Mr. Kaito's heart suddenly became hot, and his previous hesitation and doubt disappeared completely.

"The first thing I want to tell you is two basic common senses." The fortune teller saw the expression on Kuroba Kaito's face and was very satisfied. He then began to guide and teach the two newcomers to the mysticism.

"First, the law of the indestructibility of Beyonder characteristics."

"Extraordinary characteristics will not be destroyed or reduced. Extraordinary people who carry the corresponding Extraordinary characteristics can pay a price to extract them and use them to make magical items with extraordinary powers, or jump to other paths."

"It is worth noting that the behavior of precipitating extraordinary characteristics will become more dangerous as the sequence becomes higher. In mild cases, it will cause long-term weakness, and in severe cases, it may even endanger life."

The fortune teller warned in a serious tone.

Gin and Kuroba Kaito listened to it and simultaneously thought about the next route to take.

"Second, the law of aggregation of extraordinary characteristics."

"Things of high sequence in the same pathway will intermittently and unconsciously attract extraordinary characteristics of medium and low sequences, and have a tendency to gather together. High sequence can sense this attraction."

"Under this law, any Beyonder characteristics that are precipitated cannot be preserved for long. As time goes by, they will show a tendency to return to the gods of the corresponding paths, unless they are given a new carrier."

"In addition to active precipitation." Gin asked a key question, "If the Beyonder dies, will the Beyonder characteristics also be precipitated?"

"You are not the first person to be curious about this." The fortune teller smiled.

"Based on a long history, as well as countless experiences and examples in history, people have concluded that an iron law-like fact is that when a Beyonder dies, the Beyonder characteristics he carries will not be separated, but will directly return to the God himself under the effect of aggregation."

Kuroba Kaito also raised his hand and asked, "The Beyonder's Beyonder characteristics are bestowed by the gods through offering sacrifices to them. Where do the gods' Beyonder characteristics come from, and is there a limit to their quantity?"

"This brings us to a conjecture that is often mentioned in history." The fortune teller was very patient in teaching, "The Law of Conservation of Beyonder Characteristics."

"The reason why I call it a 'conjecture' is because this law has not been truly confirmed, and it cannot be disproven. Because until now, we have not been able to see the limit of the gods' gifts. The number of Beyonders in the world has been increasing continuously, and then decreasing with the passage of time, and finally stabilized at a very balanced number."

"However, judging from the greatness of the gods, this gift does not seem to have much impact on them."

Both Kuroba Kaito and Gin had some understanding of the situation in this world.

There is no urgency in the total amount of extraordinary characteristics, and the law of aggregation has determined that the pressure of survival competition among extraordinary people is extremely small. It is no wonder that it can develop to such a high level of civilization under a basically peaceful situation.

This is a pure productivity improvement.

People only need to upgrade their Sequence step by step to steadily promote social development. The only thing that can be called competition is the orthodoxy of faith. Kuroba Kaito had another question: "But since there is no pressure from Beyonder characteristics, why don't those Orthodox Churches directly announce the sacrificial laws? Wouldn't it be better for everyone to become Beyonders?"

"This has nothing to do with whether it is a true church or not." The fortune teller first corrected a mistake in his question, "In fact, all organizations or institutions that have extraordinary channels have chosen to control the spread of sacrificial methods."

"Becoming a Beyonder is not an evolution without danger. The essence of the sacrificial ritual is to please the gods and let them 'pay attention' to you. Those who are not spiritually strong enough will lose control and fall into madness just by facing such a gaze."

“On this basis, the harm of fully publicizing the sacrificial law will only outweigh the benefits.”

"There is an essential difference between gods and mortals in terms of life level. As the sequence of Beyonder characteristics increases, the imprint from the gods themselves will become stronger. This is why Beyonder paths are divided into high and low sequences. This is to allow Beyonders to digest Beyonder characteristics more safely."

"And this will also lead to an important concept——"

"Roleplay."

The fortune teller used an emphatic tone to cheer the two up: "The spiritual imprint from the gods is the greatest danger to Beyonders. The name of each sequence has its own unique meaning, representing the basic characteristics of the spiritual imprint at the current stage. The more you understand it and the closer you are to it, the milder the spiritual imprint in the Beyonder characteristics will be, and the easier it will be to digest."

“And once you fully understand the role-playing, you can completely control the extraordinary characteristics, thereby achieving a balanced effect and avoiding loss of control and crazy endings.”

"In the final analysis, the advancement of a Beyonder is a process of 'continuously approaching the gods.'"

"Keep getting closer to the gods." A hint of ambition flashed in Gin's sharp eyes.

He asked a pointed question: "Are gods born?"

"Most gods are born sacred and have existed since ancient times." Gin was very surprised that the fortune teller did not choose not to answer because of taboo.

"My Lord is an ancient god who was born great. He has been the Holy Spirit protecting mankind throughout the long history."

"But this does not mean that the only gods are the innate ancient gods."

"In fact, among the three false gods you know today, two of them became gods after being human. This is no secret in the history of the Fourth Epoch."

“It’s just that no one knows what path they took before becoming gods, and how they were born into the two extraordinary paths they have now.”

A little bit of heat suddenly ignited in Gin's heart, but he quickly suppressed it under the control of reason and restrained his ambition.

This is the "metaverse", a virtual world.

No one has ever said that the "extraordinary" here can be brought out of the virtual and become a real reality.

But he couldn't help but recall the words left by the mysterious "Fool" with a smile.

[As a gift for meeting you, and also as a gift that caught my attention, I left some interesting things there. ]

【Go find it, human.】
