“I think it’s quite useful.”
Li Tianxiu placed the mask in front of his eyes and carefully looked at the patterns inside.
It was an extremely complex magic rune. There were two fleshy bulges connected to the temples, which were slowly wriggling under the light.
"You are not an inspector. If you use items that only inspectors can use, it will be regarded as a provocation to the Nine Gods Cult. I think that as rational as you are, you will not become an enemy of the ruling power here for a rare item, right?" Nightmare frowned.
"..."
Li Tianxiu fell silent.
On the first day of arriving in the main world, he made enemies with the whole world. This was indeed a bit suicidal and inconsistent with his fundamental goal of enjoying life quietly.
Looking at it from another angle, maybe it was one of the Nine Pillars Gods who gave me the chance to be reborn, so it wouldn't be a big deal to give this face back.
"Okay, I do have something to ask, and I'll return it to you after that." Li Tianxiu made a decision.
"You don't have to act like you've lost a lot. What I want to tell you is much more valuable than this."
Nightmare smiled mysteriously, then leaned back on the chair and continued, "First of all, the world you are in is called the Land of Eternal Light. It has an owner, and you reincarnators are actually outsiders.
You can call us aboriginals Tianyao people. You can tell the difference by looking at our eyes. Our pupils are spiral-shaped. "
Li Tianxiu took a closer look and could actually make out the shape of a mosquito coil in the dark pupil.
These people should not be afraid of mosquitoes when they sleep.
"Apart from our appearance, the biggest difference between us and you is that we don't need to go to the mission world to adventure in person, and we don't even need to project our will. This is why I said that this mask is useless to you. I only use it when testing newcomers."
"You don't have any other task indicators?" Li Tianxiu asked in surprise.
"People from the Eternal Fire should have come to see you, right? Do you know what use faith is here?" Nightmare kept the question in suspense.
"Can it control us better?" Li Tianxiu guessed.
"No, traveling through the worlds is to change cause and effect. Our gods can gain power from the cause and effect changed by their followers. As descendants of God, we have inherited this ability, so there is no need to go out and take risks."
"Cause and effect? I'm afraid it's entropy change?" Li Tianxiu's thoughts began to wander.
Entropy is widely used in thermodynamics courses.
But to be more precise, this word actually refers to the internal chaos of the system, or the change of energy.
Any change in anything will cause a change in entropy, even the daily act of thinking. Changing the direction of the world will cause a change in entropy that is extremely terrifying.
Understanding it from this perspective should be more intuitive than the mysterious cause and effect.
"So you'd better be careful if you refuse the church's recruitment." Nightmare suddenly said.
"What do you mean? Will they get angry and attack me again?" Li Tianxiu sat up straight.
Although this was a deal, the voice did not say that one had to hand over one's will to others before accepting it.
"The nine churches will check and balance each other. For the sake of long-term planning, such despicable things will not happen. But whether someone will do evil in the name of an individual is hard to say.
After all, you are outsiders, and in the eyes of some Tianyao people, you are just walking experience bags.
As long as they force you to sign the contract, not only will you not have to share your karma with the Nine Gods, they can even take away your reincarnation points."
"so serious?"
Li Tianxiu's eyes suddenly widened.
Wherever there are ethnic groups, there will be conflicts. This has been a problem that has been difficult to resolve in the original world for thousands of years.
The bigger problem is that although they are outsiders, they are also a group of fat sheep.
"So my advice is to choose a suitable church to join before the three copies. Otherwise, you will be judged as a useless existence in this world, and staying will only be a waste of resources. In the end..."
Nightmare made a gesture of wiping his neck, with an expression that said you know what I mean.
"The grilled wings are ready."
The boss in an apron brought over two plates of grilled wings and smiled at Nightmare.
Li Tianxiu frowned and thought, then numbly picked up one and started eating.
Seeing that he looked worried, Nightmare felt secretly happy for some reason. He picked up his portion of chicken wings and took a bite.
But soon, his expression changed.
"You grew up eating firecrackers, didn't you?"
Chapter 21 What is Faith?
"Tons, tons, tons!"
Nightmare once again demonstrated his style of drinking holy water, drinking two large glasses of drinks in a row, his face distorted.
Maybe he and Li Tianxiu were born incompatible. The first time they met, they ate lime and holy water, and the second time, they ate super spicy chicken wings and super sour lemon juice.
Even someone as mild-tempered as him had the urge to flip the table.
Just don’t eat them.
"Can you tell me about the nine major churches?" Li Tianxiu suddenly asked.
"Hush...wait a minute..."
Nightmare took a deep breath, ran to the side to get a bottle of drink to wash his mouth, then came back and asked in confusion: "Is this what you usually eat?"
"Let's talk about business." Li Tianxiu frowned.
"What the hell are you talking about? I'm not happy right now!" Nightmare slammed the table.
"No, I haven't been able to taste food for a long time, so I want something savory."
Li Tianxiu took a bite of the chicken wing as if nothing had happened, shrugged and said, "It seems that the effect is not bad now."
"Okay, you're awesome, huh..."
Nightmare took a long breath, picked up the chicken wing again and took a bite.
Then he felt the spiciness again, so he took two gulps of water and continued eating.
Maybe this is the charm of spicy food. Although it is painful, it is indeed delicious.
"The nine pillars represent the following sources of power: Discipline, War, Stars, Machinery, Scarlet, Truth, Curse, Eternity, and Goodness and Beauty.
The order here does not represent strength, but represents the time of becoming a main god.
Different churches have different systems, and the restrictions on believers will also be different. "
"So what church are you from?"
Li Tianxiu seemed to understand that this guy was also here to promote his own church.
"What do you think this is?"
The Nightmare displayed his emblem, which was carved with a goddess wearing a wreath on her head and holding a book in her hand. Her compassionate look made the flying birds stop and rest on her hand.
"Um……"
Li Tianxiu thought for a while and asked tentatively, "What's the point of studying?"
"It's the commandments, the commandments!"
The Nightmare's defense was instantly broken and he couldn't help but roar.
"As a believer of the precepts, please be more pious and not so irritable." Li Tianxiu signaled him not to get excited.
After all, the image in the badge is not obvious enough, so it is reasonable to say that it is truth or goodness and beauty.
"Honestly, if you dare to make fun of their Lord in front of the Church of Truth and Eternity, you're doomed." Nightmare suppressed his dissatisfaction.
"But even if your God is more generous than theirs, doesn't it still require faith?" Li Tianxiu asked in return.
"There is no order without rules. In your original world, you would also abide by the laws, right? At that time, would you have a resistance because of the restrictions that limited your actions? So you don't have to understand our precepts so extreme." Nightmare spread his hands.
"But the abilities you demonstrated in the trial are not enough to make people feel at ease." Li Tianxiu frowned.
This is not to say that he holds a grudge, but when Nightmare was still Mr. Mask, the abilities he used were like those of a demon.
You call this a discipline?
"That's role-playing. The controlled body only has the abilities that it itself possesses. Otherwise, I could drink three pounds of holy water like that and be fine. How would you stand a chance of passing it?" Nightmare said disdainfully.
"Oh."
Li Tianxiu had a slight realization and asked, "Then the world I will experience from now on was not also designed by you, right?"
"You're overthinking. How can we be your babysitters forever? Only the qualification trials will go through our hands, and the scenes are usually quite simple."
"I see……"
Li Tianxiu nodded and pushed the mask forward: "But you also know that I am a cautious person. I can't agree to this for the time being."
No matter how reasonable Nightmare's words are, they are only one-sided.
He has just arrived and is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of information, so he naturally cannot make a rash decision.
"Okay, show me your reincarnation mark and I'll give it to you at the purchase price of rare items." said Nightmare.
“What is the purchase price?”
"500 reincarnation points."
"so little?"
"If you don't like it, you don't have to."
"How about this."
Li Tianxiu sat up straight and said, "I'll give you a thousand points, and you can help me get an item with space storage function."
"The market price of that thing is two thousand." Nightmare frowned.
"Just make friends. I'm very good to my friends."
Li Tianxiu stretched out his hand and gave him a polite smile.
The market price is for reincarnations like them. Nightmare is a local within the system, so he must have a way to get the purchase price.
"You really are so arrogant..."
Nightmare thought for a while, tapped his fingers on the table, raised his eyebrows and said, "Then let's get to know each other again, what is your name?"
"Li Tianxiu, Muzi Li, Tianxiu who brings fragrance to others." Li Tianxiu replied.
"Why are you like a woman?" Nightmare couldn't help laughing.
"My name is Tian. My cousin is Tianjiao and I am Tianxiu. But because I often had fever when I was a child, I went to an old fortune teller to have my fortune told. He told my dad that it was because I had too much yang energy and I should change my name to something more feminine."
At this point, Li Tianxiu spread his hands and said innocently: "Then I changed my name and successfully got cancer."
"puff!"
Nightmare laughed out loud: "Hahaha, so a lack of experience will cause harm to others. What kind of fakes did you find in your family?"
"There's nothing we can do. There aren't many capable people among us. Ninety-nine percent of them are liars." Li Tianxiu took a sip of water.
"Well, I have made friends with you."
Nightmare accepted Li Tianxiu's transfer of reincarnation points, and then placed a black card on the table: "The money in this card is enough for your daily expenses for two copies. Remember that you owe me a favor."
Investment is also a very important part of the supervisor’s daily life.
He had personally experienced Li Tianxiu's strength and naturally understood his potential.
“Is there a second currency?”
Li Tianxiu used the reincarnation mark to check the black card, which contained 10,000 star coins.
"Do you think the card I gave the bishop was fake? Just remember to pay me back the interest later."
Nightmare smiled at him, turned around and left the barbecue restaurant.
"In the end, I'm still a poor guy..."
Li Tianxiu shook his head in self-mockery, and then ordered another serving of chicken wings.
"Thank you, boss. The total is 888 yuan."
When it was time to pay the bill, the boss smiled happily.
"What the hell is this? You charged me 888? Aren't these chicken wings yuan each?" Li Tianxiu was shocked.
