Chapter 206 Speculations about the Holy Light

Jia Xiu did not press the matter further about why the Holy Light knew about him.

Even after pressing for an answer, I still couldn't get a clear answer.

Justina probably doesn't know why; she still considers the Holy Light's attention an honor.

You can't get along with these genuine believers; they all have a biased view of the gods.

But from another perspective, Jia Xiu's attitude of tacitly acknowledging that the gods are problematic can also be seen as a kind of filter.

After all, the environment I grew up in was different from this place.

The idea that religion is likely somewhat problematic was as deeply ingrained in Jia Xiu's mind as the idea that gods should be high above and guide mortals was in the minds of the locals.

Things have improved slightly now, thanks to meeting such a remarkable person as Justina.

She is absolutely the most amazing person in the world.

Not only in her conduct, but also in terms of race, she is a demigod, as she herself acknowledges.

Furthermore, individual acts of eccentricity should not be generalized to the entire group.

Jia Xiu will temporarily retain the view that it is not a good thing for the Holy Light to pay attention to him.

But then again.

Even knowing that the Holy Light's attention was not a good thing, there was nothing he could do.

After all, the Holy Light is the world's known top deity, with the largest number of believers, and can even directly establish a nation.

If there isn't some kind of supreme god in this world, a completely unreasonable being who creates and rules everything, then Holy Light would probably be the most powerful god right now, bar none.

The gap between Jia Xiu and the strongest god is no longer a question of how big or small it is.

Putting the two of them together is something only the biggest idiots would do.

Therefore, for Jia Xiu now...

Just watch.

You are the supreme deity, you are amazing, follow if you want.

He's someone who lived through the era of the internet's most unbridled growth, where even a simple box could be used as a regular attack; why would he be afraid of exposing his privacy?

Having figured this out, Jasmine stopped paying much attention to what Justina had said.

The secret to maintaining a good mindset is not to worry too much.

However, Jia Xiu was still a little curious, purely out of a thirst for knowledge.

What is it about him that is so special that he needs to be told to Justina?

The only thing Jia Xiu could think of that was absolutely unique about him was his background.

However, time travel is not such a shocking concept here, because due to the fluctuations and turbulence between planes, there are indeed some unfortunate people in historical records who were passively "time-traveled" without knowing why.

Some were found, but many more disappeared completely.

If the Holy Light truly understands his background from Earth, it probably won't consider it anything particularly serious.

From the perspective of the Holy Light, Earth might be a very, very distant dimension.

Or...maybe it's not that far away.

Hmm, thinking about it this way is kind of creepy.

Besides his origins, the second extremely special aspect is naturally the sect leader, who is elusive and rarely seen.

Perhaps, the Holy Light knows who his master is; they actually know each other.

Therefore, pay special attention to your friend's contractor.

or……

His sect leader is actually the Holy Light himself.

Hmm, thinking about it this way, it's even more terrifying than the conjecture that Earth isn't that far away.

Unacceptable, absolutely unacceptable.

The sect leader, who acts like a carefree clown, is actually the disguise of the world's strongest god.

That's such a stark contrast.

A sect composed of followers of the god of pleasure possesses the most complex and rigorous doctrines.

This is the opposite of what you'd expect from a gentle, conservative, high-achieving, perfect older sister who is actually a perverted, sexually explicit live streamer who doesn't charge a fee and is purely addicted.

I can't accept this. The sect leader absolutely cannot be the Holy Light; this is too outrageous.

While Jasmine was brainstorming, Justina, whose eyes were closed and which made her even more of a charlatan, grabbed the eye drops given to her by the Holy Son and put in two drops.

It was actually of little use to her, but Jia Xiu's complete disregard for "Holy Light Attention" and his nonsensical talk annoyed her.

Blasphemy against the Holy Light!

So he feels uneasy if he doesn't take advantage of Jia Xiu.

No, two drops aren't enough.

You can really feel the blessing of the Holy Light Divine System in eye drops, that must be pretty expensive, squeeze out a little more, or you'll lose a fortune!
How did I end up being associated with such a sorcerer? If she ever becomes a true god, I'll definitely bestow upon Jia Xiu a title like "God of Stupidity" or "God of Clowns."

May he never be able to hold his head high among gods and believers again!

Historically, there have indeed been some very unorthodox deities, such as sorcerers who performed elaborate rituals in an attempt to ascend to godhood, only to fail to achieve their goal and instead bring about great disasters, ultimately "successfully" killing themselves as well.

Although the whole set of actions was flashy and had many side effects, it did make the god laugh.

So he was given the title of "God of Fools".

In a sense, it can be considered that the initial goal has been achieved, even though the initial intention was not to become a "foolish god".

Seeing Justina's actions, which looked like she was about to splash water into her eyes, Jia Xiu couldn't help but say, "Are you drinking eye drops or what?"

"Let's squeeze in!"

"The really important thing you're going to talk about, it can't be this one thing, can it?"

Justina became even more unhappy when this was mentioned.

"Isn't that important enough? I came here to inform you despite my sick and disabled body, without even saying it directly in the divine revelation to show that I value it."

"Oh, I am truly flattered, deeply grateful, and utterly humbled..."

Where do you get so many words?

"Look, I'm just trying to express that I also think it's important, and you're still not happy about it."

Justina pouted, unable to stand it. She felt she would never be able to out-argue Jasshu in her entire life.

No, we can't call him "God of Idiots" anymore. Let's call him "God of Talkativeness" instead. That doesn't sound bad enough. So, let's call him "God of Foul Mouth." That's good.

"See you!"

Justina angrily prepared to create another spatial rift.

"and many more."

"what happened?"

"Are your eyes completely unusable now?"

Jia Xiu asked, still somewhat curious about the ability granted by the Holy Light to see through demon spies.

As the saying goes, the more debt you have, the less you have to worry.

Anyway, there are already enough research projects scheduled, so one more won't make much difference.

Let's start by proposing a topic, and then decide on the depth of research later.

Curiosity about abilities is one aspect.

Jasmine was also very curious about the Holy Light's motives.

Since He has the ability to grant ways to see through the disguises of the demons, why not grant a few more? Just randomly select a thousand or eight hundred people from His countless believers and grant them a gift. Wouldn't that directly solve the problem of investigating demon spies that has plagued the continent for so long?

The association is still collecting proposals, and so far there hasn't been a particularly good solution.

Helping other races fight against the threat of the demons seems like a great thing, at least it can help consolidate His faith.

Then why not do it?

Is it that they can't, or that they're unwilling?

It seems like there's something subtle about each of them.

It's like choosing between being stupid or being bad.

If not, the Holy Light can only be granted to a few, or even just one, individuals.

It seems that this strongest god is just so-so, at least not as powerful as originally imagined.

The future of the various races in their fight against the demons is extremely worrying.

If you're unwilling, that's not a good thing either.

Either the Holy Light doesn't really care about His followers and has no need to help deal with the demons.

Or it could be worse. The Holy Light is "nurturing demons for its own benefit."

After all, it is when people face a serious threat to their survival that they most urgently seek faith and reliance.

Just like that famous conspiracy theory about theocracy.

The Holy Light Church secretly produces addictive drugs to induce addiction, and then, in the guise of saviors, turns them into devout believers of the Holy Light.

If the Holy Light, a deity, is capable of "raising demons for its own benefit," then it's no surprise that the Holy Light Church is secretly producing addictive drugs.

If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beams will be crooked.

These speculations, however, could certainly not be shared with Justina.

She jokingly teased the Holy Light, essentially shouting "blasphemy against the Holy Light" like a cat with its fur standing on end.

These speculations are far from being mere "jokes".

This directly exposes the roots of the Holy Light pantheon.

Justina might just put on a "big cat bristling" act on the spot; who says lions and tigers aren't big cats?

"It works, but it hurts a lot."

Justina replied.

"And my eyes start watering as soon as I open them, so I guess I'll need to rest for a few days to recover."

After realizing that she couldn't find all the demon spies on the continent by herself and that they just needed to avoid her, Justina's enthusiasm plummeted.

I feel like I was being stupid before.

Perhaps she misunderstood the Holy Light's intention. In fact, the Holy Light granted her this ability only to ensure that no demons could infiltrate Jia Xiu's circle while she was protecting him, not to have her investigate all the demon spies.

But why doesn't the Holy Light allow itself to thoroughly investigate and eliminate any demon spies?

It must be that the Holy Light has His own ideas and a more complete plan.

instead of...

Right, that is it.

No, no.

It must be like this.

There is no other possibility.

The Holy Light is beyond question.

Justina dismissed her dangerous thoughts and convinced herself that she was still a devout believer in the Holy Light.

But that's how doubt works; once it arises, it spreads irreversibly unless there is conclusive evidence.

When Justina needs to convince herself that she is still devout, in reality, she is no longer devout.

Although their eyes are not fully open, they are not "blind".

“If you wait a few more days, the problem won’t be too serious, and you can still open your eyes,” Jia Xiu said. “To be honest, I’d really like to see what the power bestowed by the Holy Light is like. Of course, if it’s inconvenient for you, you don’t have to show it. I completely understand you. Even as a demigod, there are times when you can’t do something. I don’t know if it would be convenient for you to come back in a few days after you’ve recovered…”

Justina listened to Jassiu's rambling story.

She quickly understood that Jia Xiu wanted to see the power bestowed by the Holy Light right now.

They were just being sarcastic.

She's not stupid; she's not so dense as to not even realize that.

However, she fell for it.

As a dignified Knight of Light, how could I possibly be unable to achieve this?

Wait a minute, could it be that Jia Xiu also knows she falls for this kind of thing, which is why he's making it so obvious?

Conspiracy!

Even though she had thought of it, Justina still opened her eyes.

Her face was stubborn, yet tears streamed down her face.

I couldn't control it, I really couldn't stop the tears from flowing. Even though I'm a demigod, I still have the traits of a human.

"do you understand?"

"Forehead……"

Jassi looked into Justina's eyes.

how to say.

His eyes are piercing.

Literally, it means "eyes that are piercing and captivating."

His two eyes, like two searchlights, perfectly matched Jasshu's stereotypes about angels and divine messengers manifesting themselves.

If you encounter someone with their eyes shining like that on the street in the middle of the night, calling them a "high-beam addict" is an understatement.

Is this a passive skill?

Jia Xiu asked, puzzled.

This should be a spell, but he didn't feel the spell taking effect. When he opened his eyes, he was met with a piercing gaze.

It's unclear whether this is a passive spell that lasts, or if it's something special bestowed by the Holy Light, with its effects so fast they're almost imperceptible.

"Forehead……"

Jassiu's question caught Justina off guard.

Yes, she doesn't seem to have considered this issue.

From a physical perspective, the eyes are constantly consuming magic power, so what if we cut off the magic power supply to the eyes?
Justina thought about it and decided to give it a try.

As a result, the power to the camera went out.

The atmosphere in the lab suddenly became a little awkward.

Justina realized she had made a foolish mistake; she hadn't even tried to see if the spell could be stopped.

I had been thinking about investigating the demon race as soon as possible.

At the same time, she realized that Jia Xiu could tell she didn't know the spell could be stopped.

To avoid being laughed at, she quickly spoke up.

"This is an active skill."

"Then why did you pause and hesitate for a moment?"

Do you really have to ask?

"Could it be..."

"oops!"

Justina was filled with impotent rage, wanting to punch this bastard in front of her, but if she killed him, she would have to revive him herself.

"I've shown you everything, now that you've seen it, what else do you want!"

"No, I just want to see the specific process of this spell from its induction to its activation. If possible, I might be able to figure out how this spell is used, and maybe I can replicate a low-cost version or something, and then I can get the bounty on the association's undercover investigation plan."

Jia Xiu explained.

In fact, although the association's bounty was high, reaching 100,000 crowns, he wasn't particularly concerned about it.

What he cares more about is that this thing has an absolutely huge influence.

The experience gained from influencing magic on vampires alone is so much. If we investigate the magic of demons, the association will definitely push to investigate every living thing on the continent.

That would require a lot of experience.

Unfortunately, this spell was given by holy light. If we could see the original runes, we might be able to resolve it in no time.

Justina thought about it and agreed. This kid's efficiency in researching and replicating spells was simply unbelievable.

Even if it's a "divine art" bestowed by the Holy Light, he might still be able to find some clues.

"Okay, then I'll demonstrate it for you again."

Having said that, she controlled the flow of magic.

The high beams were turned on again.

Jia Xiu watched the entire process intently.

He shook his head helplessly.

"It's too fast."

After saying that, he changed the subject.

"I have another idea. How about I take you to the dark room to try it out..."
