Don't call me evil god

Chapter 663: Mokred's Faith

Pete blinked.

Blinked again.

“This is very simple.”

"We believe in a great god who has given us the ability to explore everything in the world."

"So... these are all things we are used to."

"You can see it if you just watch them."

Prince Fradin exclaimed in surprise.

He really didn't expect this.

“Is His authority…so vast?”

"Can it also allow you to have stronger observation abilities than the followers of the God of Knowledge?"

The divine power bestowed by the God of Knowledge on mortals is to identify the possible uses of the target material.

Many of the materials collected from monsters were initially discovered through the research and development of naturalists, who then found ways to utilize them.

Especially the materials needed for magic.

Before the evil god of the void invaded the mortal dimension, there was a very embarrassing phenomenon:

Mortals obtained magic granted by the Goddess of Magic.

I want to use it and I know how to use it, but I can’t use it.

Because they couldn't find the corresponding materials needed for magic.

At that time, professional mages ran all over the continent just to find materials that met the requirements in appearance and characteristics.

I searched the entire continent of Plantis and dug deep into the ground, but still found nothing.

Some people thought about crossing the ocean and going to another continent to look for it, but it was still in vain.

At that time, some wizards had already begun to suspect that these materials had become extinct on the continent, which was why they could not be obtained.

As a result, there was a fearless and extremely lucky wizard who, for various reasons, happened to enter the dragon's nest on the Frostfire Plateau while looking for materials.

He found the corresponding materials stored by the dragons in the dragon's nest.

Only then did I learn from the dragon the connection between those materials and the monsters.

The existence of the God of Knowledge allowed the mages to find a large amount of materials for casting corresponding magic on the corpses of monsters as soon as the evil god descended. This enabled them to use many powerful magics that they were completely unable to cast in the past, thus becoming an important force in resisting monsters.

Even the God of Knowledge.

His power is limited to discerning the purpose of the target;
It cannot be used to detect the identity of mortals.

Although the God of Light's [Detect Evil] magic can detect whether there is any polluting power from the void, it does not mean that it can consistently identify cultists from a crowd.

His power only represents yes or no, presence or absence.

The opponent could be an adventurer who had just finished fighting a monster, or an ordinary person who had been accidentally affected by contaminated items.

This magic also has the possibility of misjudgment.

What Pete told Fladin was that the authority of Noven, the god of knowledge, was more comprehensive than that of these two gods.

Even cultists can recognize it, and so can those who have contracted with the devil!
Therefore, Prince Fradin was stunned on the spot.

He had never seen or even heard of such a powerful god before!

Seeing this, Pete hurriedly explained:

"Wait, Your Highness, don't be impatient, you may have misunderstood something."

"His power can neither directly help us identify the cultists, nor can it help us confirm who is the warlock who has signed a contract with the devil!"

“We just use the power He has given us to analyze the results we observe reasonably.”

"For example, this is a safe capital city. Logically speaking, it should be the place with the least void pollution in the entire Reyak Kingdom. Even if there are some polluting items, they should be discovered by the Glowing God Cult quickly and then purified."

"But the level of pollution we observed in Marquis Madison is at least the concentration that can only be accumulated after several fierce battles with monsters above level 3." "As far as I know, Marquis Madison has not left the capital recently, right?"

"Then there seems to be no other possible explanation for the void pollution on him except that he is a cultist who has been infused with the power of the evil god."

Prince Fradin said "Oh" and understood.

The effect of [The Secrets of All Things Revealed] is not to directly mark a bright red "Believer of the Evil God" on the top of a person's head, and then the followers of Nowen can draw their knives and chop people.

in contrast.

It displays a message.

How to identify the other party's identity based on the information is up to the believers themselves to figure out.

But Fradin still thought it was quite outrageous:

"At first, I heard that you don't really die when you fight monsters. Those who die heroically will return to the battlefield under the protection of the gods."

"I thought the authority of the gods you believe in would grant you immortal bodies."

"It turns out that He can also let you know the secrets of all things?"

Pete smiled and added:
"not only that."

"The power of the gods, He will also show us the mysteries contained therein."

Prince Fradin's eyes lit up slightly, and he said with longing;
"Nowen, the God of Knowledge, what kind of believers will He choose to bless? Can I?"

After saying that, Fradin sighed with some entanglement.

"Uh, but... I guess there's no hope for me!"

The Reyak royal family, also known as the Mokred family, have never had a strict religious inclination.

In the nearly thousand years of kingdom inheritance, there have been several kings who were very compatible with the magic network, so they chose to offer their faith to the goddess of magic and become spellcasters.

There were also kings who had received power from the God of Light.

Most Mokred are "unbelievers" who usually choose to practice rage, relying on the potential discovered within themselves and using rage as the source of their power.

There has been a widely circulated rumor in the kingdom:

The bloodline of the Mokred family, they govern this kingdom not by relying on the gods they believe in, but by their own wisdom and skills.

Faith is just a means and a tool for them.

In other words.

Their faith could not be pure and pious, and maintaining the continuation of the kingdom was more important than the gods they believed in.

The gods would therefore be unwilling to bestow blessings upon them.

of course.

This statement has never been directly acknowledged by the royal family.

Therefore, it has always been in the realm of rumors.

But Prince Fradin obviously also agreed with this statement.

He frankly admitted to Pete and the others:

"I am willing to believe in a god if he can give me strength and help."

"But if my beliefs conflict with the stability and interests of the kingdom, I'm sorry, I can't affect the lives of the kingdom's citizens for the sake of my beliefs like others do."

Then he smiled optimistically and said, "If any god is willing to bless me in a situation like this, then He is definitely great and selfless."

Miranda, who had been silent before, suddenly raised her head and looked at Fradin.

He said slowly and solemnly to the other party:
"Your Highness, I think you can give it a try."

There should be
