From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

Chapter 571 Disadvantages of the God System

As Krober's aura, like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami sweeping over, overwhelmingly enveloped the entire spacious and magnificent hall.

Those guys who were still chattering non-stop and whose minds were full of cowardly thoughts of avoiding war seemed to have been cast a restraining spell and fell into deathly silence in an instant.

"With all due respect, can these cowardly guys really set foot on a battlefield full of smoke and blood and cruelty?"

"I see, as soon as they see the ferocious and terrifying demon, they will probably be scared to death on the spot!"

Krober mocked mercilessly, his loud and contemptuous voice echoing in the hall.

Hearing Krober's words so wantonly belittling the gods on the field, the faces of the gods present instantly turned gloomy, like the sky before a storm.

However, despite the anger in their hearts, they could not easily refute Krober. After all, although what Krober said so far was harsh and unpleasant, they had to admit that this was indeed a fact that was difficult to ignore.

Today's gods, except for the older gods who have gone through vicissitudes of life and witnessed countless winds and rains, the rest of the relatively young gods are almost without exception delicate flowers that grew up in a warm and comfortable environment.

They have never experienced a real life and death test and lack the perseverance and courage to move forward.

"Actually, what you said, Krober, is not unreasonable. Since the end of the last world-destroying war that destroyed the world and caused heavy damage to everything in the world, the world of Faerun has been immersed in pain and exhaustion. Licking the deep and shallow wounds on his body with difficulty."

The sun god Peiro, who was sitting in the center, spoke slowly, his eyes scanning everyone present.

"The development direction of the entire world is gradually tending to pursue the growth of the number of strong people, trying to make up for the lack of individual strength through human sea tactics."

"However, behind this blind expansion, there are inevitably some major flaws in the quality control of the strong ones."

"As a result, the situation we are facing now is that of these so-called 'gods' who appear to be powerful but are actually vulnerable."

Perro shook his head slowly, his majestic face now shrouded in deep helplessness, followed by a long sigh.

This sun god, who is as bright as the scorching sun and has long been regarded as the supreme god of Faerûn, actually for the first time in front of many gods, unabashedly admitted a series of hidden secrets within the camp of Faerûn's gods. Serious problem.

When they heard that even their own God-King, who was as high as the master of the universe, was so frank, the faces of the gods standing or sitting below all showed complex expressions of guilt and reluctance. .

Because in this vast continent of Faerûn, the strict and insurmountable class hierarchy among the gods is like an extremely heavy mountain, pressing firmly on the bodies of these young gods, making them gradually I have lost the ambition I once had to move forward courageously and work hard to pursue a higher realm.

However, in this silence, a clear, sweet yet solemn voice suddenly sounded:

"Actually...the entire responsibility for this incident cannot be placed on them."

The speaker was the revered elven god Corellon.

He took an elegant step forward, looked around at all the gods present with his eyes full of wisdom, and then continued:

"In fact, long before that thrilling world-destroying battle broke out, those of us who are now called gods by the world were far from as united, harmonious and friendly as we are now."

"At that time, there was only one thing on our minds."

"That is to do your best to kill those gods who are hostile to you, and greedily devour the power of faith and the precious godhead controlled by the other party, so as to continuously enhance your own strength."

Having said this, Corellon paused for a moment, and then took a deep breath, as if he wanted to inhale all the dark and bloody past into his lungs.

"Honestly speaking, the hands of each of us beings with great divine power are stained with the blood of countless gods, no matter good or evil, right or wrong."

"I'm not talking about this to defend anything, I just want to explain it to you, Krober."

"Their unhappiness actually has a lot to do with the mistakes of us leaders."

Corellon's majestic eyes scanned the gods standing below like lightning.

Every glance seems to carry heavy history and endless stories.

In these long and ancient years, there have been countless battles and intrigues between these gods.

Betrayal follows you everywhere, often striking a fatal blow when you least expect it.

Ambush hides in the darkness, waiting for the perfect moment to launch a surprise attack;

Assassination is the invisible hand that steals lives silently;

The alliance is nothing more than a temporary measure, and will collapse instantly once interests conflict.

Thinking back to those days, Corellon was once one of many gods. At that time, he was just a little guy with weak divine power, and the elves he created were only a race that was so weak that it could almost be ignored.

However, it was with his indomitable will and extraordinary wisdom that he embarked on this bloody and cruel road to godhood step by step.

During that long journey, he constantly devoured other gods and absorbed their power and divinity.

Each devouring was a thrilling life-and-death contest, but Corellon never backed down.

Gradually, he acquired many priesthoods, magic, art and craft, music, war, and the priesthoods that he is familiar with now were all spoils of the step-by-step devouring at that time.

Finally, after a long period of accumulation and precipitation, Corellon successfully ascended the throne of great power and sat on two huge and influential pantheons.

That is, the elven pantheon and the life pantheon.

But even so, when he looked back on the past, he still felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

If he was placed in such a complex and changeable environment as he had just started, weak and helpless, perhaps even survival would be extremely difficult, not to mention being able to achieve such a brilliant achievement today.

After listening to Corellon's heartfelt words, the older gods below all showed deep nostalgia in their eyes.

They had also experienced that turbulent ancient period and knew the hardships and difficulties.

At this moment, in this silent space, only memories flowed quietly...
