The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 1172 Hidden dangers
After reminding or warning the drow mistress and her group who were secretly watching, Alan found a secluded, uninhabited, nameless valley and stopped. He casually cleared out a quiet and secluded place, then sat cross-legged and began to examine himself.

This fight with the two elven saints was actually a kind of test for Alan to see where the bottom line of these potential rules dominated by the temple forces was, so that he could operate more easily in the future.

Of course, there is also the fact that Allen is itching to find something to do.

After all, tens of millions of soldiers were fighting bravely on the ground. As a leader, Alan always felt a little sorry for the fallen Northern soldiers if he did not make any contribution and sacrifice.

However, Alan did not expect that the Elf Kingdom valued him so much. Although the female elf among the two saints sent to the Thorn Fortress was a priest, her spellcasting skills and domain power were definitely the best among the saints Alan had ever seen, and she was no weaker than the ascetic monk Von Koluk of the Oak Church.

Especially since the opponent's domain was comparable to that of a god, enough to influence a war by one person, forcing Alan to use the domain and divine arts that he had not yet understood and mastered in order to reduce casualties among Northern soldiers.

The result was pretty good from a practical perspective, as the first attempt to expand the domain to the divine realm, combined with the effects of divine magic, not only offset the effects of the opponent's divine realm, but also accelerated the defeat of the enemy soldiers.

However, this also brought some changes to Allen himself, changes that he did not want and even subconsciously resisted.

Ever since he had completely mastered the use of the legendary expertise of multitasking, Alan had tried his best to prolong the independent existence of his divine consciousness. Until now, he has been able to overcome the consequences and discomfort brought about by having his mental power split into two, and has been maintaining the existence of his divine consciousness.

The reason why Alan maintained the independence of divine consciousness was that he needed a rational and tireless "him" to help analyze the seed of faith that was obviously closely related to his path to becoming a god, and to unravel the complex and mysterious patterns on the seed of faith.

At the same time, Alan also needs 'him' to receive the spiritual resonance images produced by the prayers of various believers, whose numbers are getting larger and their desires and pursuits are becoming more and more complicated, and to process and digest the various useful and useless information contained therein.

The gradually improving Church of the God of Food needs a divine consciousness that can respond at any time, or at least respond within a certain agreed time period, to give divine inspiration to believers, divine grace to clergy members, and so on.

If Alan were to do all these things himself, he wouldn't have to do anything else and would be bound by these things.

And the most important point is that by using the divine consciousness to deal with the emotions that are mixed with the self-desires and fantasies of many believers, Alan can reduce the impact of these harmful emotions on himself, thereby causing major changes in his own personality.

Through the superficial information about the gods collected from the Council of Eternal Truth, the dragon Figolaus and other channels, as well as his feelings from groping for the road over the years, Alan could clearly feel the risks of the path he was now on.

The gods are at the top of the pyramid of thousands of dimensions. They seem to be high above and extremely powerful, revered and worshipped by countless creatures. But the more Alan knows the inside story, the more he feels that the gods are somewhat pitiful and even sad.

The source of the god's power comes from the believers, so he needs to become the protector of the believers and perform miracles in front of the believers to prove his existence and power. Its essence is not much different from a clown performing in front of the audience.

At the same time, because the power of faith itself is nurtured in the spiritual world of believers, it naturally carries the believers' beautiful fantasies about the gods, and this fantasy is not limited to powerful strength and majestic appearance, but also includes the gods' personality, ability, etc. Whenever the gods absorb the power of faith to enhance themselves, the spirit carried by these powers of faith will become invisible shackles, or molds, slowly shaping the gods into the most suitable image in the hearts of the general public.

For example, the goddess of grain and abundance should be kind, merciful, and philanthropic, and her image should be a plump female with an ordinary appearance and a kind smile. Another example is the god of nature, Ohai. Since absorbing most of the authority and believers of the Oak Father, his statue has also undergone subtle changes over the years. Obviously, his essence has changed because the new believers have replaced the characteristics of the Oak Father into the fantasy of Ohai.

In the process of constantly using his divine power, Alan also clearly felt that his temperament had changed a lot. It became increasingly difficult for him to have emotional fluctuations and it was difficult for him to feel passionate about anything.

His originally ordinary appearance gradually became more angular, and although he was not very handsome, it was a great improvement from his original appearance. He looked a little thin among the bugbears, and his physique was more in line with that of elves and trolls. Unconsciously, he gained muscle and changed into the sturdy body shape common among bugbears.

Alan was very scared. As he got closer to the throne of God, he would become someone different from himself, and become the appearance and character imagined by millions of believers.

If that's the case, then what exactly am I?
However, once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Since he has chosen this path and has invested too many resources and talents in it and won over countless believers, he has no choice but to continue on his way. Otherwise, only destruction will await him and the Green Tribe in the future.

In order to solve this problem, Alan has been thinking and trying various methods, and finally found that the existence of divine consciousness can offset most of the influence from the believers' distracting thoughts, making his own transformation slower and giving him time to slowly correct himself.

The divine consciousness that was originally stripped away was Alan's absolutely rational side, and there was no moment of emotional fluctuation at all. Therefore, no matter how many distracting thoughts were carried by the divine consciousness, they would not cause much waves.

As for the changes in his own body, Alan was able to accept it calmly.

However, there is a problem with doing so, and that is that Alan cannot easily get rid of the state of multitasking. He needs to let the divine consciousness continue to carry these forces that are harmful to Alan independently outside of the main body, until the carried power reaches the limit of the divine consciousness, or Alan's main body is fully prepared to differentiate and eliminate these forces.

In order to reduce the casualties of the soldiers in the North and to verify the phased results of the divine consciousness, Allen took the initiative to merge the divine consciousness to advance to the divine domain and cooperate with the divine arts. The results are naturally gratifying. When the domain evolves to the divine domain, it has some effects related to the authority of the gods. Superimposed with the divine arts performed by a complex pattern cut from the seeds of faith, the fact that the "Feast of War" first emerged.

Feast of War - the aura of war within the Divine Realm, the physical energy that is falling into death, the fighting spirit and magic power emitted by warriors and spellcasters in battle, etc., will all be cooked by the Divine Realm into invisible magic dishes and blessed on the members of the camp that controls the Divine Realm.

The effect of magic dishes is no weaker than that of a saint-level spellcaster. It also varies according to the energy properties of the cooking, and its duration is unknown.

A successful attempt also comes with a price. Allen accepted the results and experience of the divine consciousness's research during this period, and at the same time he also had to accept the impact of the complex thoughts of the believers carried by the divine consciousness.

If he cannot digest and eliminate these harmful thoughts as soon as possible, but is assimilated by them, then Alan will truly evolve into the god that many believers expect, and will most likely lose his own value and existence, and be enslaved by believers and become a puppet.
