Wizard's Journey

Chapter 1997 Abyss Battlefield (Twenty-Two)

Green and Millie seem to have completely immersed themselves in one game after another, forgetting their identities, forgetting Little Eight, forgetting everything from the past, forgetting the Wizarding Alliance and their mythical status, with only each other, traveling through one world after another.

These worlds include various material worlds with different rules. Some are very mysterious, some have a long history, some have radical rules, some transcend reality, and there are also various absurd, mysterious, and illusory worlds that gradually break away from conventional balanced rules of cognition and tend towards a certain high-dimensional phenomenon world, as well as other natural phenomena occasionally encountered in the vast and endless void.

Now, after leaving the previous illusory world filled with the dangers of the space-time rifts connecting matter and energy, Green and Millie have arrived in this seemingly vast and boundless world.

Blue sky, white clouds, green mountains, and clear water—everything looked so similar to the wizarding world. The two agreed to venture out with the strength of third-level great wizards. If it weren't for the sudden cherry blossom rain today, they might have truly had the illusion of returning to the ancient wizarding world.

The aroma is irresistible.

"This is the divine grace of the God of Love, Savabinaye. Spring has arrived, the season when all things procreate in love. The God of Love will send down a rain of plum blossoms, allowing men and women of marriageable age to hold a grand ceremony in the temple, to forge friendships, and to enter into the hall of marriage."

The middle-aged man, sitting on his four-legged self-propelled mechanical device, stubbed out his cigar, patted a pet that looked like a hybrid of a squirrel and a rabbit with his robotic arm, and said to the young couple, Green and Millie, "What, don't you have the blessing of cherry blossom rain from the God of Love back in the north?"

A giant spaceship casting a triangular shadow glided slowly across the sky. Although the speed was relatively slow, on the more than 100-meter-long hull, one could vaguely see a large number of men and women, all young talents traveling together.

The ground was muddy and muddy. Although there was a certain mechanical foundation, there were almost no traces of man-made roads. It seemed that the humanoid creatures of this world had not discovered the wonder of the wheel.

"Now even I'm starting to doubt whether I've really joined the Boundless Divine Alliance."

After muttering this to himself, Green replied to the burly man with the mechanical modifications, "Where we're from, we worship the god of war. What about you?"

Upon hearing the words "God of War," the burly man was visibly taken aback. Judging from Green's earlier conversation with him, it seemed that it was entirely out of consideration for Millie, the beautiful woman beside Green. Ultimately, the reason should be the difference in their beliefs.

"The God of War?"

Slightly hesitant, the burly man slowly said, "Uh, forgive my frankness, but because I haven't had much contact with the doctrines of those ancient gods, I'd like to ask if the God of War has any special rituals? Like..."

As he spoke, the burly man gestured dramatically and asked tentatively, "You mean that kind of sacrificial consciousness involving blood, souls, corpse remains, and stuff like that? You know, those ancient gods all like those things."

Green was completely stunned. It seemed that the Wuji Divine Alliance was indeed different from the information in his intelligence!

"How could that be? I don't know about the war gods of other factions, but these things have never happened in the war temple in the north where I live. We believe in defeating the enemy on the battlefield with honorable courage!"

Millie's surprised words relaxed the burly man considerably, and he burst into laughter, saying, "I knew it! Only people like you who believe in ancient gods would travel on foot like this. Modern people are increasingly pleasure-seeking, and those ancient gods have gradually been abandoned by the new generation. Even the followers of the two supreme temples of the world and the starry sky are decreasing, while the god of media is becoming more and more powerful. People spend far more time on electronic devices than on faith and prayer to the ancient gods. In recent years, many ancient gods have been forgotten and extinct, even the god of love has been gradually forgotten by young men and women..."

Although his words carried a hint of melancholy, the burly man wasn't upset at all. On the contrary, he seemed rather pleased, continuing to laugh, "Haha, it's good that you young people spend less time online. After all, the real world is much better, isn't it? We should become the masters of those robots and use them on ourselves—that would be a great choice!"

As he spoke, the big man proudly stretched out his mechanical arm.

The god of media!?

If it weren't for understanding the other party's meaning most directly from their will, Green would hardly believe that there was such a thing as a god of the media.

This is quite different from Grimm's understanding of the divine system. Could it be that this biological system, rejected by wizards, also has its own evolutionary path?

Green and Millie exchanged a glance, both seeing a thirst for knowledge and curiosity in each other's eyes.

……

It took Green and Millie fifty years to travel across the intercontinental continents and become two of the world's more famous theological scholars.

The universe, which is time and space, is the infinite spacetime of the ancient intercontinental continent. From this, two supreme gods were born: the God of Time and the God of the Stars, to satisfy the ancients' reverence for the infinite spacetime. This led to the establishment of a strict pantheon and the beginning of the struggle between different pantheons.

So far, everything is perfectly normal for wizards. Although the rules and names of the divine system society are ever-changing, they are always about the struggle for faith, and their core themes are all closely related to people's work, rest, emotions, and so on.

However, this world civilization, built around a system of gods, seems to have recently undergone some entirely new changes, changes that are beyond the comprehension of wizards!

The Wellington Theological Seminary, established in the name of the Greens, aims to study ancient and modern divine systems. After decades of development, it has gained a small reputation in academic circles.

"Dean Green, I have found information about an ancient god, Narbi Jacket, which means 'invincible sea serpent' in the Tu language. It has a history of at least 120,000 years. It was translated from the inscriptions in the Nanmalesun Forest. It should also be a kind of ancient god. Its true form seems to be the image of an incomparably huge octopus."

In her early thirties, this woman, radiating amazing youthful energy, wore a black miniskirt and walked up to Green in her high heels, handing him a written document.

"Yes, it should have a high degree of realism."

After observing for a while, Green nodded, his unique erudition quite captivating. He calmly said, "Before the ancient pantheon established by the World God and the Star God, there was a period of ancient pantheons. People from various tribes revered some unparalleled life forms that evolved in nature as gods and worshipped them. At that time, the pantheons on the continent were truly numerous. It was the emergence of the Lone Ones that gradually caused those ancient gods to disappear into history."

The two walked and talked along the long corridor, bathed in the glow of the setting sun, appearing as if they were friends despite their age difference.

Millie, now an old woman, hummed twice at the gate. The female professor next to Green smiled awkwardly, said goodbye to Green, and then Millie took Green's arm, glared at him, and said, "Don't forget you're almost eighty years old now, still not giving up."

Before Green could say anything, Millie quickly added, "What, do you dare say you don't have other ideas?"

Ha ha ha ha...

Knowing Millie's temper, Green didn't say anything more. Just as he was about to close the research institute's doors and go home to watch a movie, a panting young man, covered in sweat and looking very flustered, suddenly ran over and grabbed Green's aged hand anxiously, saying, "Are you Dean Green? I, I, I have something I want to ask you..."

"Well?"

Green adjusted his glasses and asked calmly, "What is it?"

"I, I, I saw God, the real God. He was right beside me, he was everywhere. I don't know what to do. I'm just an insignificant little person. I never thought it would turn out like this. Waaaaah."
