"Dark Dragon God?" Ronan blinked, "What is that?"

"This is one of the water gods in the traditional mythology of Sakajo..."

"Are there supernatural gods here in Sakamoto? I remember that after the Aberration Era, the 'conversion rates' of various civilizations and religions were very impressive... Hey, I could use a little more force on my spine."

Snake Yu was still speechless, she just responded and pressed on, making sure to satisfy Ronan. At the same time, she was also quietly observing. After all, it was the first time she had been in contact with Ronan in the real world for a long time, getting close to the most real image, and in the cloud.

The oppressive power of the world's powerful rulers is very different, and needs to be re-experienced, re-combined, and re-corrected.

Ronan can feel this idea of ​​secret observation, and he can do it through Snake Whisper. He enjoys Snake Whisper's service very much, but this does not mean that he has to put on the stinky airs of the superiors. If he likes it, he likes it, and if he feels comfortable, he feels comfortable. Likewise,

For intellectual information, if you don’t know, you don’t know, and if you are interested, you are interested.

Under Ronan's guidance, Yin Le unconsciously entered the role of teaching. Anyway, she had done a lot of homework in the early stage. She opened the virtual workspace, displayed the collected information, and highlighted the key points:

"This involves the issue of the origin of the extraordinary power of the contemporary religious order shrine in Sakajo. According to the Shinto tradition in Sakajo, Osawa Shrine is not the main shrine enshrining the dark dragon god. According to them, what they enshrine is from the main shrine.

The "Wild Soul" of the Dark Dragon God was invited to represent the god's rough and powerful form, probably similar to a clone of evil thoughts.

"So, the exact term is 'Dark Dragon God Huang Yuhun'. The image and divine power are different from the 'Dark Dragon God' in myths and legends... This difference is very crucial."

The Shinto tradition in Sakajo is relatively complex, and Yin Le only gave a brief introduction, and the focus is not here. She switched the interface again, and in the virtual workspace, a comparative diagram of worshiping gods appeared in due course.

The "Dark Dragon God" is a more traditional oriental ancient dragon image, with slight changes, but it is still acceptable; but the "Wild Soul" appearance on the other side is more absurd.

"Oh, what!"

What surprised Ronan was a rather ferocious monster. The overall outline looked like a buffalo, but the structure of its limbs was more like insect joints, with sharp twists. The body was low and its posture was more like a spider.

"The image of this wild soul is more similar to the 'cow ghost' in the ancient legends of the islands. It belongs to the category of demons, but here it is originally a demon. The gods are often interchanged, and the people easily accept it.

"Of course, this is not a monster, but a type of abnormality that exists around Sakai City. Probably to fit in with the tradition of Sakai City, the aberration biologists here still name it 'Ushiki'. They are active in

In the seaside area of ​​​​Bancheng, they belong to aquatic species, but they often sneak into the northern mountains along the river to hunt. Most of them live alone, and their range of activities is very large, and the danger is also very high."

"Abnormals and gods... seem a bit familiar!"

Ronan felt that this paragraph was a bit familiar. He gently shook his head under the massage of Snake Language and retrieved the information in his memory: "By the way, Sister Yueyin told me about it."

It was a series of general knowledge classes arranged by the Xiacheng branch shortly after entering the circle of the inner world. He Yueyin was talking about "World Order inside and outside the Lingbo Network". The main content was the distribution of forces in the inner world and the secular world, as well as the operation time.

The series of light and dark rules. I did mention a few words about the situation in Sakagi.

Yin Le stopped: "So..."

"Keep talking, keep talking, especially about the 'mutual achievement' of mutants and gods. It's probably this. I've almost forgotten it."

"yes."

Yin Le took a deep breath, made slight adjustments according to the scope defined by Ronan, and continued her explanation: "The background of the so-called 'mutual achievement' is: after the arrival of the distortion era, the city was built on the ruins.

It became the only large city on the archipelago and basically inherited the archipelago's culture. However, in the early years before the emergence of extraordinary power, its Shinto tradition did not seem to have the soil to produce extraordinary power. Until a certain person who was born in a traditional shrine,

A person with extremely crazy abilities performed an incredible experiment. Of course, it might just be a sudden insanity...

"Through the sacrificial ceremony, he directly connected his own gods with a certain powerful aberration that was raging around the islands at that time, and worshiped it. And he really realized the connection, got feedback, and formed a kind of symbiotic relationship, and also

As a result, many secular clergy members of that shrine became capable persons.

"No matter how absurd the cause was, it finally opened a door to the extraordinary level for the traditional Shinto forces in Sakajo. The era of distortion was certainly a chaotic dance of demons, but it was also more in line with the Shinto tradition that has always had an 'animistic' belief. The mountains, rocks, vegetation, and trees

Birds, beasts, and even the resentment of souls can be transformed into spirits and monsters, which has a strong mass base.

"With the belief foundation of hundreds of millions of people and the substantial feedback of extraordinary power, it is natural for this system to become bigger and stronger. So far, religious groups have flourished around Sakai City, and various shrines have been established, becoming the famous 'All Gods'

City'."

Ronan nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "Now I remember it. Using distorted birds, beasts, and plants as gods... It should be used as the sustenance of a specific set of imagination. If the spiritual level has the ability, it can be called a 'construction'

According to the rules of form, and with aberrations with extraordinary power as the platform and carrier, it becomes possible to achieve a leap from zero to one. Therefore, as long as the basic conditions are met, the form of extraordinary power is very flexible."

"That's what sir said."

Yin Le agreed and continued: "It's just that the Shinto system in Bancheng also has huge shortcomings. Those so-called 'gods' are still deformed at their roots. In particular, most of them have not been eliminated, some are ignorant, and some are

He is vicious and cruel, so it is not easy to enshrine him and be used by the cult for a long time.

"Some small sects, such as the Shosumo Shrine, often suffered backlash due to this, and the system collapsed. The shrine that was the first to eat crabs has now been annihilated and ignored. Although there are many sects in Sakajo, there is only one that has truly become a phenomenon."

The Amaterasu Order is the only one, and it is not the traditional way of Shinto."

Ronan laughed. "Ideological sects" like the Blood Flame Order have their own sense of superiority, and it is only natural that they can't stand these wild fox Zens in Sakagawa.

The three major secret sects, the Justice Order, the Amaterasu Order and the Eye of Secret Contract, have never given the "divine position" to others. The Justice Order is the most special one, with the factor of "sacred object worship", but

It also implements the concept of complete logic, purely based on rules, and there are laws that can be implemented.

Creation out of nothing may seem illusory, but it is actually the most stable.

Ronan suddenly remembered another verse, turned to Snake Language and smiled: "Your All Souls Religion is too casual. Those sacrificial incantations are patchwork and lack of sincerity!"

"I made the adults laugh." Sheyu said calmly.

Although she was born in Bancheng, in the Shinto lineage, and can be said to be pure in law, she has a cold nature and has no intention of protecting herself. She only uses Bancheng as a bunker, and the All Souls Religion is the cover on the outside of the bunker. It has a certain appearance.

can.

If she had spent one tenth of the concentration on the massage today, the All Souls Order would be a different story.

Ronan just said it casually and motioned for Yin Le to continue explaining. The latter changed the page on the virtual workspace and refocused on the Daze Cult:

"Compared to other unpopular Shosumo Shrines, the Osawa Order is relatively mature. It is said that the 'Dark Dragon Kamara Mithun' they worship, that is, the 'Ushiki', has grown in wisdom over the decades.

He is very spiritual and can even communicate with others.

"But precisely because of this, its reaction is more uncertain. Based on the intelligence, I basically restored the situation last night - here I must say a more tragic example than the Dazai Cult.

"There is a Honkawa Shrine to the west of Sakajo. It belongs to the Shosumo Shrine and is a branch of the branches. It mainly worships the spirit of the Hiruko God and has little influence. It is this clone of the Hiruko God who was killed last night.

was 'hijacked' by the Amaterasu Sect, and the entire sect system collapsed instantly. Three priests at all levels died on the spot. They were the first victims that could be confirmed in this Amaterasu Sect operation... but basically no one was killed.

Bring it up."

"The two shrines of Honkawa and Osawa have always been recognized as having a close relationship. The 'Dark Dragon Kamara Mithun' was most likely frightened by the incident at Honkawa Shrine and stayed away from Sakajo, and he did not know that he had escaped.

where."

Ronan frowned: "So the Daze Cult is selling off a large amount of assets and fleeing with its own gods...is there something wrong with it?"

"Yes, I feel that the decision was too hasty." Yin Le focused the information page on a man who looked very casual and unrestrained. "The second-in-command of the Osawa Order, Yoshio Matsudaira, who is currently in charge of the affairs of the order,

It is said that he is a very wealthy person and has made a prosperous business in Sakai City in recent years. It is hard to imagine that he would sell off his assets in such a hasty manner, but it is also possible that he has received other information. Regarding these, further intelligence support is needed. "

Ronan shook his head. The Osawa Religion was just a small detail in the overall situation in Sakajo. He was more concerned about the situation of the Amaterasu Religion:

"What about other sects and shrines? Honkawa Shrine and Osawa sect are like this, but they don't have any thoughts of sorrow for the death of rabbits and foxes? How can they resist it? A dark dragon god escaped, and the other so-called"

So what about gods'?"

"This..." Yin Le was trying to find words when a voice suddenly interrupted.

"There won't be any changes." Sheyu pinched the back of Ronan's neck, leaned forward, and whispered softly. The warm breath was extremely pleasant.

Ronan's head and neck turned slightly as she pointed with moderate strength, and he asked casually: "Why?"

"The religious order shrine in Sakajo has long been accustomed to living under the control of the Amaterasu Order, just like the people are accustomed to living in the shadow of the giant chaebol.

"Some people are confused, some people have some experience but are unwilling to think deeply, and some people have the desire to struggle but do not have the strength to struggle. Under such a general trend, 99% of people will stick to the established route and complete the tasks they have been given.

Role - this is tradition and the basic rules of living in it.

"Even if they are destined to be dealt with tomorrow, they still have to compare the consequences of being dealt with and the consequences of violating the rules, which one is more tragic. In the end, their choice is probably to follow the established rules."

The gentle words and the calm and indifferent tone made Ronan look at him sideways.

"Can't you even think about resisting?"

"Why resist?"

Snake whispers in a low voice: "The Shinto appearance of Sakai is okay for deceiving ordinary people, but for those with abilities, who doesn't know what's going on? Each religious group and shrine can only use the 'One Spirit and Four Souls' and the like

In name, it is used as a shield to cover up one's ears and steal the bell.

"It can be said that after the Shinto tradition entered the era of distortion, it has turned into a deformed monster. In order to obtain extraordinary power, people tried every means to support and please those ignorant and violent deformed people. This kind of rule itself cannot be maintained.

value.

"For many people, the Amaterasu Order's 'Kingdom of God' seems to be more interesting than the Shinto tradition that has gone astray."

"The Kingdom of God?"

Ronan heard another new term and asked subconsciously.

Sheyu seemed to think that as a maid, she had talked too much. She smiled slightly and turned her gaze towards Yin Le.

Yin Le accepted this kind of "favor" with a smile. Of course, everything was based on doing enough homework. She turned to a new information page and showed a simple tree diagram:

"The Amaterasu Sect has been promoting the so-called 'Kingdom of Divine Treasures' in recent years. It is said that it is built on the 'Fuso Sacred Tree' built by the true God. It runs for ten days in parallel, each with its own sacred treasure. Each treasure is a world.

The world is a place where gods reside. In addition to the supreme gods, there are also clone souls or auxiliary gods who are stationed there, and their ranks are clearly defined."

Ronan understood instantly: "These seats are reserved for the Sakagawa Ichigan Order Shrine."

"That's right. In recent years, the Amaterasu Order has increasingly regarded Sakajo as a forbidden area. Perhaps it wants to establish a divine kingdom system based on the 'City of All Gods'. It is paradoxical to the Shinto tradition of Sakajo.
To be continued...
