I travel through countless worlds at the same time

At the same time, no one knew whether it was a mutation or some other reason, but what Pal gave him during his rest was the sword of salvation.

At that time, he and Pandora speculated that Mithra from that parallel world might be the final king.

But Pandora did not answer the question of why the final king of the two worlds is not the same person.

But now he learned it from Sun Wukong.

The qualifications for the Covenant Law have nothing to do with the mythical god. As long as the conditions are met, one can obtain the power of the Last King (of Denor).

"Then does that mean I can also become the final king?"

"You? How is that possible! You will only become a demon king, and that won't change Gan!"

Hearing Higashino Yuu's muttering, Sun Wukong said without even thinking.

The power of the Covenant comes from the covenant of the gods and the support of the god of destiny. It is not only because the covenant has a terrifying bonus to the power of spells, but also because the covenant has the destiny that the brave will inevitably defeat the devil.

Because in this world, the God Slayer is defined as the Demon King, and the only one who can defeat the Demon King is a brave man, which is just like in many fairy tales.

How could the God of Destiny allow someone to be both a devil and a hero?

Doesn't that mean the athlete and the referee did it all by themselves? That's impossible!

"But what if I build a mythology system?"

Looking at Sun Wukong, Dong Yeyou tilted his head and said.

669. The essence of the Covenant Law.

"What did you say?"

Hearing Higashino Youyu's words that would shock people to death, Sun Wukong widened his eyes again.

"Do you know what it takes to build a myth?"

Creating a myth is not something that can be accomplished simply by opening your mouth or saying something casually.

All the myths and legends in the world have been passed down, changed, and gradually formed over countless years.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just take the myth of Sun Wukong as an example.

Although what really made him famous both at home and abroad was Journey to the West written by Wu Cheng'en.

But his evolution did not happen overnight or just because of a book called Journey to the West.

It is now believed that the evolution of Sun Wukong can be roughly divided into four stages.

The first stage is the stage of uncertain name, according to the "Biography of Master Tripitaka of Da Ci'en Temple".

When Xuanzang passed through Guazhou on his journey west, he took a foreign monk named Shi Pantuo as his guide.

But just after crossing Hulu River, he was afraid of the danger ahead and retreated back to Guazhou.

The second stage is the Monkey Walker stage, in which Shi Pantuo, who has extremely monkey-like features, was modified and processed into the Monkey Walker.

In the poem “The Journey to the West by the Tang Tripitaka”, the Monkey King who calls himself “the 190 Bronze-Headed and Iron-Foreheaded Monkey King of the Purple Cloud Cave in the Flower-Fruit Mountain” disguises himself as a scholar in white clothes to escort Xuanzang on his journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures;

The third stage is the stage when "The Great Sage Equaling Heaven" and "The Great Sage Who Knows All" are equally famous.

Jin Yuanben, Pinghua and Yuan Zaju were widely circulated. The representative works were Wu Changling's "Tang Sanzang's Journey to the West" and Yang Jingxian's "Journey to the West Zaju". During this period, "The Monkey King" and "The Great Sage Who Knows All" coexisted.

The "Great Sage Equaling Heaven" in Yang Jingxian's "Journey to the West" is the elder brother of the Great Sage Who Knows All. He calls himself "Little Sage", the second oldest, and is called "The Great Sage Who Knows All".

The fourth stage is the naming stage of the Monkey King.

Sun Wukong was not only transformed from the "Great Sage Equaling Heaven" of the Yuan Dynasty drama stage to the "Great Sage Equaling Heaven", but also integrated the best of all previous stages, combining the real historical monk Shi Pantuo, the (monkey) "Xingzhe" and the "Great Sage Equaling Heaven" in one.

He created the immortal artistic image of the Monkey King, Sun Wukong.

"Humph, of course ordinary people can't do it, but I'm not an ordinary person! I'm Dong Yeyou!"

Looking at Sun Wukong, Higashino You now has a rough guess as to why he was able to obtain the world-saving sword.

Although he is a godslayer in this world, (cgad) he is still a god in some worlds.

For example, in the world of Kamen Rider Agito, he is the incarnation of the power of light. For example, in the ultimate world, he is the only true God in the entire twelve time and space.

For example, in the world of High School, he became the reincarnation of Baal.

Although these legends contain some speculations, whether true or false, it is precisely this kind of speculation that fits the legends.

And legends are the seeds of myths.

It was because of all these things that his fate became confused, and it was also because of this that he obtained the sword of salvation.

Through Sun Wukong's words, he has more or less understood the rules governing the operation of this world.

The fate of the devil king is to be defeated by the hero, and the fate of the hero is to defeat the devil king, so the hero will never die before defeating the devil king. This is the hero's immortal body of steel.

"So if that's the case, do I have to adjust the myth so that I also have the power to save the world?"

Higashino Yuu stroked his chin.

Almost no matter what legend it is, if there is a villain then there will naturally be a protagonist. In this world, the villain is usually a dragon, a snake, or a demon king, while the protagonist is Steel holding the sword.

"In other words, the choice has always been in my hands?"

Higashino You looked at the world-saving sword in his hand, then looked at the power in his body and frowned.

On one hand, he wants to become Steel who saves the world, while on the other hand, he wants to continue to be active on earth as a demon king.

The two things were like the two ends of a scale, swaying back and forth in his heart.

"No! I seem to be in a misunderstanding. Why should I choose? At a time like this, I naturally want them all!"

Higashino Yu shook his head, shaking off this unnecessary thought from his mind.

An ordinary person might be trapped by these two, but if he wants to become stronger, he can choose one path.

But Higashino Yuu is not an ordinary person. He has a foggy space. For a double-choice question that is very difficult for ordinary people, he can easily choose both options.

"You seem to care a lot about the Covenant Law?"

Seeing that Higashino Yuu was lost in thought again, Sun Wukong couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, I originally wanted to use the Covenant Technique to enhance my myth and gain power."

He said it very frankly.

When Sun Wukong heard what Higashino Yu said, he was immediately surprised.

"Have you already created a myth?"

The godslayer in front of him was so powerful that he could construct a myth. You know, myths are usually spread over a large area and gathered from the faith of believers.

However, if you try to do it deliberately, it is easy to backfire.

Even the new churches that have emerged in modern times are adding to the existing mythological system, such as Western Satanism.

It is because Satan came into being first, and then such a church was established and a group of believers were gathered together according to the doctrine.

But now, Higashino Yu is preparing to fabricate a myth out of thin air.

It has no foundation from the past, and it doesn't even rely on the framework of other myths. It relies entirely on its own strength. This kind of power that creates something out of nothing is simply terrifying.

"But from what you said now, you are not going to take this path anymore?"

Hearing Higashino Yuu say "originally", Sun Wukong couldn't help but be curious about what he was going to do now.

"Of course not. After all, I have understood the essence of the Covenant Law. Although this is not the path I requested, it can indeed be used to enhance some of my strength."

There was a gleam in Higashino Yu's eyes.

In fact, the essence of the so-called covenant method is not to enhance the power of mana at all. After all, if it is just to enhance the power of mana, no matter how much it is enhanced, it is just a fat man, so what is the use?

"Could it be that you have understood the essence of the Covenant?" Sun Wukong's face showed even more surprise.

"Of course, the essence of the so-called Supreme Covenant Law is nothing more than a bonus to the fate of the hero!"

"The world-saving divine sword, the immortal body, the indestructible diamond, although these seem to be extremely powerful, they are actually just appearances. The real foundation has always been that the brave man defeats the devil."

But when it comes to this, Higashino Yuu's face also turned ugly.

Because if this is the bottom line, it also means that it will be very difficult to recover the dragon snake.

After all, if you do that, you will create a lot of dark myths.

For example, the dragon defeated the hero.

But this is clearly inconsistent with the current worldview.

Just like the dualism of good and evil in Zoroastrianism, good defeating evil is the inevitable theme of mankind.

670: The Myth of Science, the Terrifying Sword of Salvation, and the Killing of the Three Gods

Of course, although it is difficult for him to change this, it is very easy to pollute this fate.

For example, there is a common argument nowadays.

"The dragon slayer becomes the evil dragon."

From Nietzsche's "Beyond Good and Evil", this sentence means: The warrior who kills the dragon will eventually become another evil dragon.

Originally, the dragon slayer represented justice and fought against the dragon to eliminate it for mankind, and his ultimate goal was to end the fight with a fight.

Therefore, there is no absolute justice and evil, and there is even no essential difference between a hero and a dragon. There is only a nominal distinction, and people see the light of the "hero" but not the darkness behind the "hero".

The evil dragon here can also be likened to what people hate and resist at the beginning, such as dictatorship.

Then the brave man represents the hero who overthrows this tyranny, but after overthrowing one tyranny, a new tyranny will emerge.

Then a new hero will appear and return on Tuesday, just like history repeating itself~.

Although this kind of thing may just be a complaint in people's mouths, but if it is placed in the entire mythological story, there will be horrible changes.

Because this means that the hero will inevitably be polluted.

For example, after Sun Wukong caused havoc in Heaven, he defeated the Jade Emperor, and then he became the new Jade Emperor and started a new round of oppression. Then he was defeated by the new Sun Wukong again...

The cycle continues.

In this case, even if the hero defeats the devil, he will also be defeated by the new hero.

But this is not what he wants.

Or maybe he wanted more than that.

What he wanted was for Athena to restore her identity as the ancient snake god, but if he really did what he did just now, both sides would suffer losses.

It harms others and does not benefit oneself, and there is no way to incorporate this into his mythology system.

The dragon slayer eventually becomes a dragon, so what does that have to do with his scientific religion?

Could it be possible that the Church of Science could provide the next generation of heroes with better swords?

"what!"

Suddenly, Higashino Yu's eyes lit up and he had an inspiration.

Although the Church of Scientology cannot represent heroes, it can create heroes!

After all, science itself is not the business of a god, but an organization formed by countless scientists.

So can I transform this base into a human being?

Humans create gods!

Higashino Yuu looked at Sun Wukong and suddenly an inspiration came to his mind.

Although humans and gods seem to have always been active in the same world, they have always been two lines with only one intersection.

In ancient times, people feared the power of gods and chose to believe in them.

Similarly, because gods have gained the faith of mankind, they have begun to consciously protect mankind.

But that’s all. Even the gods, while protecting humans, may occasionally lose their temper and cause the world to be destroyed.

The most famous of these was the Bull of Heaven incident.

Mentioned in the Epic of Gilgamesh.

Ishtar once proposed to the legendary Sumerian king Gilgamesh, but was rejected, and Gilgamesh listed her cruel ways of killing or injuring her previous lovers.

She told this to her father An, who gifted her with a mysterious bull from heaven to avenge her.
