Chapter 757 Rules (Thanks for the beautiful gift! Love you~) (Page 13)
Everyone took the baby girl to check, and the baby girl seemed quite quiet, not crying or making a fuss. But this was obviously a problem, because a normal baby would not be so quiet.
"It's a very strange genetic disease. I've never seen it before." The First Councillor frowned.
"It's such a hassle! It's all the fault of the God of Technology, who created so many fancy rules." The little princess complained. There was no genetic setting before.
Dio stroked his chin. "Actually, I think this is a good thing. Even the high gods cannot escape the constraints of the world's rules when they influence this world."
"If it was in the past, we would never have discovered Nanaya's problem. But with the world rules, everything became logical. The influence of the high gods on her fate was also reflected in her genes. This at least makes fate appear intuitively."
"That sounds like a good thing. So what you mean is that as long as we cure the baby girl's genes through gene therapy, we will be able to save her from her fate, right?" asked the third congressman.
"It's not that simple!" Dio shook his head.
"At the microscopic level, the rules of the world are still blank, and the power of will will be infinitely magnified in this field. For example, the wave-particle duality that the God of Technology has not had time to perfect. A photon is both matter and a wave. It will change at will according to the results people want to observe. This is obviously a big loophole."
"The same is true at the genetic level. Maybe we can cure her with gene therapy. But as long as the source is not changed, her genes will mutate again. The essential problem is not the genes, but the will of Madness," said Dio.
"Does that mean we have to compete head-on with Dianhuo in willpower without any tricks?" asked the First Councillor.
"That's exactly what I mean." Dio nodded.
"Ah? Then what should we do? A few of us aren't enough?" The little princess was a little worried.
"Let's give it a try anyway. Even if we lose, it doesn't matter. He sent Nanaya here just to undermine our confidence." The third councillor said nonchalantly. He would not be defeated by a failure.
"Is Dianhuo so bored? He would do this kind of trick just to prove his strength. I think he must have other conspiracies." The first congressman felt that things were not that simple.
"I have the same feeling. Maybe the consequences of losing will be serious," Dio said.
"Then why do you still accept this challenge?" The little princess was a little puzzled.
"It should be impossible to refuse, right? If he can do something to Nanaya, then he can also do something to other people." said the first congressman.
"..." Dio nodded dully.
The little princess inexplicably thought of herself, and a look of fear appeared on her face.
"Dianhuo is forcing me to take sides. The reason why we can live in peace is because he is not the only one dominating this world. The Golden Tree is also competing with him. Now the Golden Tree has a great advantage. In terms of rules, the Golden Tree is about to win. When the subsequent spiritual laws are perfected, no one can escape death. In this situation, Dianhuo has only one choice, and that is to join forces with me to fight against the Golden Tree. But before joining forces, he also has to test our qualifications." Dio speculated.
"Dianhuo has set a test question to test our abilities. Whether we are chess players or chess pieces depends on our performance." said the first councilor.
"Um...what if our test fails? It doesn't seem to matter if he doesn't cooperate with us?" The little princess was still a little naive.
"It would be great if that were the case. I'm just afraid they won't be able to afford it and will just flip the table! Then we will be the ones who suffer!" The third clenched his fist. The first councillor also nodded in agreement.
"There won't be a table-turning situation. If we fail, the Golden Tree will definitely win." Dio shook his head.
"Ah? Is Dianhuo so graceful? Is he willing to accept defeat?" The little princess was a little surprised.
"How is that possible?" Dio was somewhat speechless. "If we fail, then Dianhuo will have to leave with regret. This is not because he is graceful, but because he has no other choice. This world will be filled with spiritual energy, and unconscious spiritual life will become the master of this world. Dianhuo's tricks are completely useless here."
"And having no consciousness means having no stance. Spiritual life will passively follow the will of the Golden Tree and do bad things." Dio said.
"Bad thing? Why are you so sure?" Everyone was a little surprised.
"This has to start from the beginning of the world. Our God of Creation is not a good person..." Dio gave some scientific knowledge to everyone.
"Our world is the pilot world of the Golden Tree. If spiritual energy can work here, then the world outside should also be able to do so." Dio said.
"Oh... then if the Golden Tree turns all the life in the world outside into spiritual energy, then only his will will remain in the world, and the God of Creation will wake up?"
"I don't know about that. This world is okay, with only the golden tree and the crazy fire. The world outside is quite complicated, with countless different kinds of gods. Although they have not demonstrated any powerful power, their willpower may also affect the outside world." Dio felt helpless when he thought of this.
He felt like he had underestimated those gods. Some gods were indeed very weak, and many could not even defeat a demigod, but their wills were difficult to eliminate. This meant that they could only be sealed but not killed. But as long as they were not completely eliminated, they would always jump out and cause trouble.
Moreover, gods are not static, they are also growing. Just like Golden Tree and Crazy Fire, they only used brute force at the beginning, and they didn't understand anything more advanced. But as time went by, they became stronger and stronger.
Dio even suspected that it was the inspiration from the evil god Fly King that allowed Crazy Fire and Golden Tree to master the ability to create destiny. After all, they didn't have so many fancy abilities before.
Dio knew that the Fly King had no ill will towards the world, so even when faced with the hatred of Mad Fire and Golden Tree, the Fly King only reacted passively, but after fighting with the Fly King, the two became much stronger. They no longer obsessed with superficial struggles, but began to focus on their own will training.
The two of them are like weather vanes for the gods. Basically, whatever they do, the other gods will follow.
Golden Tree was the first to cooperate with humans. Dianhuo followed suit immediately after learning about it, but his initial follow-up method was a bit extreme. It was not until much later that he learned to communicate with people and his personality became stable. After the two of them achieved good results, other gods followed suit and various churches sprang up.
So Dio thought that it would not be long before other gods would interfere with the direction of everyone's destiny through their will. That would be a troublesome situation. I thought that after the Lord of the Flies' dream world was shattered, everyone's destiny would be free. But the result was that after he left, all kinds of monsters and demons appeared more. The fate of mankind became more unknown and dangerous.
Listening to Dio's concerns, everyone felt heavy-hearted.
"Huh... After hearing what you said, I feel like our chances of winning are very low?" The first congressman said after adjusting his breathing.
"It's indeed very low. Because we have missed the best time. It's also my fault. If I had treated the world with kindness from the beginning, I might have discovered the truth of this world faster. But I failed to suppress my evil instincts after all." Dio was a little helpless.
"It's not your fault! After all, anyone in your situation would not have a favorable impression of the world. And there's no point in saying this now." The little princess shook her head. "What we should do now is to solve the problem of this child."
"That's true. Anyway, let's give it a try first!" said the third one.
"it is good!"
They calmed down and adjusted their mindsets, and then the gods began to bless the baby girl.
"I hope your fate will no longer be bumpy and you will have a happy life!"
"Wow~" After receiving the blessing from the gods, the baby girl's appearance did not change in any strange way. She just opened her mouth and started crying. In this world that is firmly bound by scientific rules, all kinds of fancy special effects of the gods are difficult to appear.
"Great! Our will is useful! This girl's life span has been extended by one year and she can live to be 7 years old!" said the third one excitedly.
"You are so optimistic. I didn't expect that we could only make such a change together." The First sighed. From this point of view, the gap between them and the King of Mad Fire is really huge.
"What should we do now? This is the best we can do. This shouldn't meet Dianhuo's expectations, right?"
Dio smiled and said, "As long as it works! If we are not enough, we can add more people! If it doesn't work, I will issue a notice and ask everyone to pray for this girl."
"This... isn't appropriate, right? After all, most people are quite selfish. How could they possibly pray for a girl they have never met?" The First Councillor shook his head and said.
"Human nature is dynamic. When people's living conditions are bad, they show their bestial side. But if living conditions improve, they become kind and friendly." Dio also discovered the fickleness of human nature through his observations over this period of time. But he thinks that this change is not necessarily all bad, there are also many good things in it.
"Now that everyone has enough food and clothing, they have begun to pursue a higher spiritual life. I think many people will participate in the prayer."
"The era of parliamentary rule is over. Perhaps you should look at people with some new eyes." Dio said to the first parliamentarian.
"Haha, how can human nature be changed so easily? Good people are good people wherever they are, and bad people are bad people wherever they are. It's just that good people are always rare." The first congressman had a different opinion.
Dio smiled and said nothing. He directly sent a message to everyone.
"Hello everyone, I'm Dio. I need your help now. There is a little girl who has been cursed by an evil god, and we can't break the curse with our own abilities. So I hope I can draw on your help! From now on, please pray for this girl!"
Many people who were bored and anxious were instantly excited after seeing this news.
"I can finally go to work? That's great!"
"Does Lord Dio need the power of our faith?"
"If he needs it, let's give it to him! After all, it seems that the only thing we are worth now is the power of faith."
"..."
Of course, there are also many people who don’t have any utilitarian ideas. They just simply want to help the little girl and don’t think too much.
However, people who had just experienced the Dark Ages were still used to thinking about things from the perspective of interests. During these days when they were not working, they also discussed the significance of Dior's non-working policy.
In the end, everyone agreed that this was because Dio wanted everyone to provide him with the power of faith.
Everyone was quite convinced by this inference, because it was logical. But even so, no one felt uncomfortable, because they were already used to the survival rule of putting interests first.
However, there are some idealists who believe that Dio is simply kind and wants to achieve the great goal of everyone becoming a god. However, only a minority of people hold this view.
