Simulate the universe, starting with speedrunning Greek.

Even a powerful nation like Greece declined after its civilization on Earth began to decay.

No matter how powerful the Greek gods were, they could not reverse the fact that the dominance of the European pantheon began to decline.

Such a cruel outcome.

Even though the gods devised a way to move from Greece to Rome, it only allowed them to enjoy a brief period of glory.

In the end, the great Rome they created was plundered by the neighboring Christian Church.

It's a truly heartbreaking evolution.

This established history is probably truly unchangeable.

Otherwise, what did Zeus, the supposedly omniscient and omnipotent god, ultimately do?

Chapter 183 The vital link to the divine universe—the sole central hub is in your hands.

What is the cost of change? If you were to forcibly change things in the Moon World, it would become a Singularity or Lostbelt.

This form of representation is the best way to explain it.

If we consider the established history of the main world as human history, and the future is locked in according to human history, then the fate of mythological history is also fixed and cannot be changed.

This might explain why so many gods, who are portrayed as incredibly powerful and omnipotent, ultimately couldn't even avoid their own deaths or foresee that someone would try to harm them.

Even a powerful being like Zeus constantly suffered setbacks in his illicit affairs. He even faced betrayal from his subordinates several times and had to worry about the future of the tradition of patricide.

If someone were truly an omniscient and omnipotent deity, they would naturally be able to avoid any future that would be detrimental to them from the very beginning.

Because fate has already been decided...

Looking back at the mythological history of various pantheons, just like Norse mythology, their myths were confined to the 'work framework' of their respective worlds.

Just as Odin saw, destiny was already anchored at the birth of the universe, and no one can change it.

(The ending of the story has already been decided by humans...)

Even as the supreme god of the Norse pantheon, he was powerless. He could only do his best to delay the arrival of Ragnarok and leave a spark for the possibility of creating an alternative 'parallel universe' and establishing a new Norse pantheon after the God of Silence survives.

Therefore, mythology is indeed deeply influenced by human history.

To create a completely new worldview means to change human history.

In fact, things that change human history—

"I've done it before..." Night said, revealing his true feelings.

He returned to Greece, to the past of Rome, and even to the Norse pantheon, changing the 'story' already written in the conceptual universe—isn't that changing human history?

It's like an author forcibly changing the setting of a world, erasing the parts they don't like, and adding the parts they do like.

It's like a programmer deleting the original code they hate and writing new code instead.

"Black Tower": "Your idea might be correct. If we look at it this way, the star core itself is a huge central machine, and you are the programmer who controls that machine. No one but you can recalculate a new future on the underlying code of these universes and worlds."

Night: "That's an interesting point. If you think about it carefully, even the concept of gods is something that humans have given to them. Even the oldest gods, from the earliest records of them, are only a few thousand years old. If we calculate their age according to that, compared to the stage of planets and universes, they are undoubtedly—still just infants."

"Black Tower" stroked her chin with her small hand and blushed as she continued, "As gods who are so young yet possess such immense power, capable of influencing the entire universe...—precisely because their power is so great, no living being who has witnessed that power has ever dared to consider that the birth of gods may even originate from humanity?"

While playing with the ice cream, Ye continued, "To say that gods were born from humans is an overly arrogant assumption without further evidence. However, I am certain that mythology and human history are now inextricably intertwined."

As the night can observe countless conceptual universes, it has a lot to say on this.

At least in the world he had glimpsed, these countless universes did indeed operate according to this logic.

In most parts of the world, there are probably no gods, but there are also beings like humans.

Human history in different worlds is strikingly similar.

Furthermore, those terrifying and powerful gods are confined to a small planet, inextricably linked to human civilization, yet they have never thought of conquering other planetary civilizations in the starry sky or roaming the cosmos.

This in itself speaks volumes.

The only civilization on Earth, the planet that gave birth to countless giants, is humankind, and this life form may be of vital importance to this universe.

If those universes were once deathly silent for hundreds of thousands of years, then after the birth of human civilization on Earth, monsters capable of influencing the multiverse began to emerge one after another (such as the Divine Throne and the Miniature World).

In a short period of time, they sprang up like mushrooms after rain, emerging alongside the great explosion of human civilization!

So, this phenomenon, which is extremely irrational but whose very existence is truth, is indeed true!

Night: "We don't need to explain, nor do we need to trace back to the source to give it an answer. My goal is to find the answer to the current problem by grasping this pattern."

Those ultimate philosophical questions could be pondered for hundreds of thousands of years without any result, because the information available is still too limited.

In comparison, the most realistic thing to do right now is to think about how to replicate the birth of the 'mini-universe'. That will also be the thing that improves him the most.

Even though they have mastered the microcosm and the worldview, they cannot create the world at will.

There must be some key point he hasn't grasped yet.

'Black Tower' frowned: "To say that gods have always existed, only appearing and becoming active after the birth of mankind—and only on this one planet—is far too far-fetched."

Night: "I understand!"

???

'Black Tower': What did you understand?

How did you suddenly understand?

Night: "It's still the same setting—do you remember the world setting of the Little Garden? It includes settings about the period of historical transition."

'Black Tower' paused for a moment, then hesitated before speaking, "Anchored history, unchangeable? Is that what you mean?"

“Those pivotal moments in human history that have had a significant impact have indirectly led to the rise and fall of various mythological civilizations. Therefore, in order to ensure their own strength, the major pantheons will deliberately freeze and protect those historical moments from being altered.”

Night: "A period of historical transition—!! It is indeed a period of historical transition! Human history and mythological history complement and influence each other. Powerful gods can easily rewrite history, even simultaneously rewriting the history of the entire multiverse... This will inevitably also affect mythology."

For example, what if a deity intervened in the rise of Christianity and forcibly eradicated it before it even flourished? Then—would that one true God, the Dove God, still be able to be born?

The Pigeon God was not born very late; on the contrary, he had a prototype very early on. However, he was not so powerful from the beginning, capable of overpowering all other pantheons. At that time, there were many pantheons that proclaimed their own gods to be supreme and unique.

The process that it must go through to become the only god is the rise of Christianity in human history, from missionaries on earth to the destruction of mythological systems in various places, labeling all other pantheons as heretics, and beginning to denigrate the supreme gods of various pantheons.

Chapter 184 Gods: What? Griffith's army is about to enter the pass? I'll lead the way!

The rise of Christianity...

It began by degrading other pantheons, the supreme gods and chief gods, into the image of demons and devils, and incorporating them into the Christian mythological system.

Initially, believers in the native mythological system certainly resisted, but the falsehood became the truth... Over a long period of time, the originally erroneous hypothesis was also etched into human history and became the correct one.

More and more people are believing in monotheism.

Compared to the original situation where a hundred flowers bloomed and various myths and stories contended, the world was eventually unified under one voice.

The ultimate winner was not the more famous but ultimately unsuccessful Greek mythology, but rather the previously relatively unknown Christianity.

The other pantheons in Europe were reduced to a few scattered individuals by the Greek pantheon.

But so what?

Wasn't it the One God who had the last laugh?

"The anchoring of mythological history may also have the influence of that one and only god, but—"

“But… the original, unchangeable concept of the universe has produced an anomaly like you.” 'Black Tower' stared at Night with wide, shocked eyes.

Hiss~! ! !

They've done so much, and they haven't been slapped to death by that pigeon god yet. They're really lucky.

Perhaps it's more accurate to say that this change is a 'normal' process, so smooth that even the god of procrastination couldn't stop it?

This is a problem that I've been more or less aware of all along, but I haven't dared to think about.

But as he did more and more, and influenced more and more of the pantheon's history, the one true god never appeared. The fact that he slapped himself to death speaks volumes.

"Cheater!" 'Black Tower' couldn't help but blurt out these two words.

Night happily accepted the 'praise' with a smile.

Through the practice of falsehoods becoming truth, Christianity eventually even condemned the supreme gods of other pantheons as heretics, thus establishing the awe-inspiring reputation of a single God.

Then he can learn from others.

Perhaps—he could even learn from the Cross Coach and make himself the real one, fabricating himself as the Pigeon God of the New World? If the One God is indeed him, wouldn't everything make more sense?

He can't just slap his past self to death, can he?

The effect comes first, then the cause.

As long as everyone believes that he eventually became the one true god, then tracing back from the future to the past, traversing all time and destiny, and achieving the oneness of God will no longer be impossible!

[Myths originated from civilization] From this perspective, if humanity were to reach interstellar space and develop interstellar civilizations in the future, it is possible that even a pantheon far more terrifying than the myths of today could be born.

For example, a world where there were no star gods at the beginning, but after the outbreak of interstellar civilization, star gods began to emerge along with countless major events.

I'm talking about you—the Ironclad World where the prototype of 'Black Tower' is located.

The birth of the first guardian deity, Krippe, occurred 500,000 years ago, a time before interstellar civilization had even begun.

At that time, there were only planetary gods and native gods. But as civilization leaped to interstellar civilization, the vast concept of planetary gods, which affects the entire universe, began to appear one after another.

Deities are inextricably linked to civilization! They are even more deeply connected to the leaps and bounds of civilization. The more important the historical period, the more likely it is that an opportunity to 'create gods' will arise!

This essential connection is often inescapable in the worldviews of countless epics, myths, and works.

So Ye understood a little.

If you want to create a brand new microcosm, you need to have enough links and connections to real human history.

The timeline of the major historical transitions influenced by the conceptual universe he previously belonged to can be incorporated, but that is the future!

He clearly doesn't yet have the strength to snatch food from the jaws of other pantheons.

Previously, they also used a simulated universe to start 'causing destruction' from within.

And now-

No, he actually has another path to take.

Night thought about the world she was in now.

A possible 'future' belonging to the Norse universe, his existence will be anchored and become reality by his own and the gods' descent.

But before that, before this myth was fully born, it was still in a state somewhere between Schrödinger's cat and the like.
