Jobless Reincarnation: The King with a Mental Problem

Chapter 164 Even gods cannot fathom the thoughts of humans and gods.

"You mean...?"

"That's right... Legend has it that all the scholars who developed inventions that could change the world are dead..."

"Can you be sure it's related to gods and humans?"

"One or two times may be a coincidence, but human civilization has such a long history, it can't all be a coincidence, right? And among the legends that have been left behind, there is the story of the evil god who called himself a god.

In the Mage Guild today, some scholars might even consider encountering and dying at the hands of the god you described as proof that their wisdom is enough to change the world.

"..."

Therefore, humans and gods...

Is it actively locking down the world's technology, or even restricting the development of civilization?

Before I could come up with an answer, Genus spoke again.

"And on the other side, there is Saint Milis, who preserves all kinds of powerful magic, but they refuse to share many technologies, and at the same time, they prohibit research and dissemination... because they believe that forbidden knowledge will bring destruction."

I do seem to have heard that, in the original work, Milis himself was also an apostle of gods and men...

so......

Is this the state of the world today what humans and gods wanted?

Saint Milis simultaneously cut off the window for communication between the Demon Continent and human society, and occupied a unique geographical advantage, while also possessing a leading technological advantage.

Humans do indeed possess sufficient intelligence compared to other races.

To be honest, it's not me, nor can I say that I'm inferior to other races. Let's not even mention the idiots of the demon race, and even the dragon race's Osti and Per don't seem to have that strong scientific research ability; they're just very obsessed.

Even the Dragon King Laplace, who wanted to continuously improve magic, disguised himself as an old man in the mountains and then open-sourced many of his techniques on GitHub, allowing a large number of humans to iterate and learn them.

However, this behavior would definitely greatly accelerate the development of human civilization.

But what was the result?

The result was the Lingus Sea...

If gods and men are indeed constantly hunting down pioneers who have the potential to change the world and drive social change.

This can only mean one thing: he's scared...

Therefore, his most direct goal should be to reduce the level of threat to humanity...

Because human intelligence is indeed very strong.

For example, the technology left behind by [something] is a power that human intelligence alone is sufficient to destroy gods and humans.

Although the information provided by [something] is somewhat rough and it is obvious at a glance that many steps have been simplified, making it very difficult to learn, the healing magic he left behind and the healing magic provided by Osti are completely different technical paths.

This indicates that it was a new technological path developed independently without relying on god-level detoxification magic.

It should be [something] and the technology that someone was researching together...

Because I believe it should be as intelligent as I am, and it contains much knowledge that I have long since forgotten...

So who is the person who is researching [something] together?

......

never mind......

Since he doesn't want me to know the truth, why should I make a fool of myself?

And I can roughly guess what it means...

After all... we might be the same person...

Let's get back to the main topic.

Speaking of which... what exactly is the purpose of gods and men?

Is it to destroy the world?

Why doesn't it just destroy the divine jade inside its own body?

In that case, the human realm will be destroyed along with other worlds.

Moreover, Saint Milis's statement that "forbidden knowledge will bring destruction" actually has some truth to it.

After all, when I was seven years old, I had already mastered the magic of world destruction...

But what the gods are doing now is keeping humans like pets and secretly restricting the development of human civilization.

Analyzing the results, the explosion in the Lingus Sea not only killed the Demon Dragon King, but also set back human civilization, geographically isolating the Demon Continent, whose gatekeeper was Saint Milis...

That's killing multiple birds with one stone...

Perhaps before Osti began his cycle of reincarnation, what the gods and men did was secretly manipulate the development of civilization, directly using the control of the world's overall fate to gain an advantage.

It wasn't until a century ago that they focused their attention on opposing the Osti, which is why the blockade and communication with the Demon Continent have been relaxed for nearly a century. Even within Saint Milis, a pro-demon faction has emerged.

The god-man suffered the consequences of his own actions. Simply put, his habit of cruelly torturing people to death and then making a scene in the end led to his infamy.

Upon closer examination, according to Osti's previous statement, since the god-man cannot leave the boundless realm, his main method is to manipulate the fate of the world, make the entire world hostile to him, and use overwhelming power to oppress people.

Perhaps if I, in the future, lead this world to develop technology and exchange ideas, I can also create my own advantages?

Because this is definitely not the scene that gods and humans would want to see...

He will have to devote a great deal of energy to dealing with the consequences caused by me.

At the same time, given his godlike nature, the more he intervenes in the development of this world, the easier it is for him to expose his wicked nature, leading to a decline in his credibility. Once his infamy spreads, it will be even more difficult for him to bewitch the apostles again...

Even his existence as a human being and the very threat it poses will surface, completely exposing his existence.

If he doesn't do this, he's letting me accumulate advantages...

only......

If that lunatic god's goal isn't to destroy the world, then what is it for?

What's wrong?

Does he also want to be the ruler of the human world?

That doesn't make sense either...

He was already a god among men...

Moreover, he seems more like a eccentric psychopath; his real purpose should be even more bizarre...

......

I can't figure it out...

never mind......
