646 The magic oath
At this time, the goddess of magic in the light and shadow was constantly emitting a Holy and brilliant glow, like the rising sun. Any evil person who got close at this moment would feel extreme pain.
The red mist slowly rose from the door, and a circle formed by seven blue and white stars surrounded the ground. At the same time, it seemed as if there were countless deep eyes staring at this area from the door of heaven.
The pressure that the goddess emitted instantly made everyone present kneel on the ground, humbly pressing their heads against the ground and fearfully enduring this supreme power of will.
Divine grace was like the sea, and divine might was like a prison.
No matter how determined a non-believer was, when faced with the power of a true God, they would still feel as fragile as an ant from the bottom of their hearts.
Zhao Xu was the only one who could still stand on his own and stand firmly without wavering.
It was like a flagpole that would never break in a storm.
As for the other players, they kept chanting the titles of mysterious lady, the mother of all magic, and the Holy Mother of all Arcana in their minds.
Sisylvana’s long black hair was floating in the air, and her skin was extremely tight. She was the most perfect human woman.
This time, she was only wearing an elegant and plain dark silk brand, with a net-shaped gemstone ring on her chest.
Zhao Xu realized that the person standing in front of him right now was probably sisylvana’s incarnation.
He had already recognized the ring on the other party’s chest. It was the core of Arthur’s weave with the highest authority.
As long as one had it, all the legendary spells and below that had appeared in the Arthur continent could be perfectly replicated and used.
The real goddess of magic did not need such means at all. In other words, no true God could reveal their true form in the land of Arthur.
Sending an incarnation was already the greatest extent.
“We pay our respects to you, Your Highness.”
Zhao Xu bowed slightly to her. He didn’t forget that he was her cleric, and he was a ” cultivating cleric ” who specialized in knowledge.
Even though Zhao Xu was no longer like the other devout priests of the goddess, who would kowtow and pray devoutly at dawn and dusk, he still had the most basic manners of a goddess.
“I’m also very happy to see you again, zhongxia.” The goddess sisylvana’s gentle voice came out again.
it also caused the hearts of the people below to shake, and they could not control themselves.
This was a true God!
and it was one of the most powerful divine powers in arthur!
Why did it look like they were old acquaintances?
These familiar words even made them think that there was another great divine power standing in the field.
Even before the transmigration, the gods were like the stars in the sky to the players. They could be seen from afar but could not be touched.
“I think kaya has mentioned to you about the effect of the three divine miracles I gave you. Have you decided to use the last time to resurrect her?”
“And not to save your Kingdom?”
As she spoke, the goddess’s incarnation raised her wrist slightly, which was covered with white silk lace cuffs, as if she wanted to signal to him.
isn’t it a better choice to use it to save the innocent civilians who are about to suffer from the storm? ”
Zhao Xu lowered his head slightly and said slowly.
“To me, that’s not the case.”
As he spoke, his eyes lit up and he looked up at the goddess. when I first registered as a character of Arthur and climbed the stairway.
at that time, I answered thousands of questions. In the profession statues in front of me, the priests and mages were all obvious, but the Druid didn’t disappear.
Suddenly, the players kneeling behind him could not help but exclaim in shock. They had also registered their characters before, but the first time, they did not even answer the thousands of questions.
An average person would not have this kind of patience. For those who were determined, one or two hundred Dao edges would be enough to filter out the target they wanted. Unless they had OCD, they wouldn’t keep answering the questions just because they couldn’t extinguish the statue’s light.
At this time, everyone looked at zhongxia in a different light. They were deeply curious about the story of this number one person.
it wasn’t until I came across a question about moral dilemma that I successfully removed the light from the Druid statue, and then I got the two profession badges of mage and priest.
As soon as he said that, many players who knew the inside story were shocked. They wondered if zhongxia really had a priest level like the rumors said.
Didn’t that mean that he had completed two professional training sessions?
“Do you still remember the question?” The goddess sisylvana suddenly asked.
Zhao Xu also smiled and nodded. of course.
“There are five children playing on a running track, and there is one child on the other abandoned track. The train in the distance is coming and will kill the five children playing. I’m at the intersection, holding a handle that can change the track. I’ll choose to save one rule-abiding child or five rule-breaking children.”
Zhao Xu repeated the questions from before. Even now, he still couldn’t forget the shock he had felt at that time.
“What was your choice then?” The incarnation of the goddess asked curiously.
The players below and even the commoners were listening intently. At this moment, more and more players and camp managers had arrived from the outer circle of the region.
The dignity of the gods was so wonderful that without any explanation, they knew that it was the goddess of magic, and they immediately knelt down.
Upon hearing this, everyone perked up their ears, thinking about how they would choose in that situation.
“I refuse to answer.” zhao xu said.
“Ah?”
“Why would I?”
“You can still not answer?”
For a time, the players who had also climbed the stairway had different opinions. Some of them didn’t even answer the question and directly chose the statue. Even those who answered the question patiently would skip this step when they re-registered their characters.
However, even though it was a long time ago, everyone clearly remembered that they could only continue to the next question after answering it.
“You didn’t answer?”
“No,” she said. zhao xu shook his head. ” i told the sky-breaking ladder that i refused to answer this stupid question. ”
For a moment, everyone below revealed a shocked expression.
however, from another perspective, it was not easy to make such a decision.
Because Zhao Xu’s choice was like giving up.
The hundredth “give up” was fine.
The sunk cost of giving up on the thousandth question was enough to shake anyone’s will.
“why?” At this moment, the goddess of magic had a smile on her face. She had a kind and gentle gaze as she looked at Zhao Xu, who was standing on the scorched earth in high spirits.
“Because this shouldn’t have been a problem in the first place.”
Zhao Xu shook his head and said, ” what if I choose to save those five children and the next problem becomes that I have to kill a child myself to save the five children? ”
“If I had refused this time, or if I had chosen to sacrifice the five children in the beginning … What if the other side of the scale turns into a hundred children, a thousand, or even a hundred million, or even the entire human race?”
“If you choose the side with more people to save based on the number of people reaching a certain point, then what is the number?”
that’s why I told it that I refuse to answer such a stupid question.
Zhao Xu’s powerful and resonating words had hit the core of the problem.
this kind of moral dilemma should not have been a problem in the first place. Even if the next step was the death of one of his parents, how could he face that?
“hahaha.” the originally reserved incarnation of the goddess suddenly laughed heartily.
this was because zhao xu had already answered the questions of the goddess and everyone else.
If this time, he had chosen to use the ” divine miracle ” to save all the people in the kingdom of Yanan.
Then, the next time he encountered a situation where he had to sacrifice the entire Yanan to save six billion, should he follow the optimal decision and save more people?
“if i were to let you answer this question now, how would you answer?” The goddess’s tone became even gentler as she asked, as if she was listening to a basketball song. Her silky murmur even made people’s eardrums go soft.
Zhao Xu also quivered a little, and he immediately said, ”
“Then I’ll flip this Go board.”
“Very good,” he said. Sisylvana, the goddess of magic, gently patted her palms and suddenly looked at Zhao Xu as she spoke.
zhongxia, Shaya had asked you if you were willing to be my chosen one and the agent of magic in Arthur.
I can also tell you that as the chosen one, you are not protecting me, but magic itself.
“As for us, we are only temporarily in charge of magic.”
as she spoke, the tone of the goddess ‘incarnation became more and more solemn, and the door to heaven behind her also began to emit a melody that transcended the mortal world, echoing with the solemn song of the holy spirits of heaven.
I, sisylvana, the embodiment of magic in the world, am here to ask you if you understand-”
magic is a supreme art, a gift blessed by fate. It’s the highest privilege Arthur gives to spellcasters. At the same time, remember to be humble and not arrogant. to use magic skillfully and effectively, one must avoid carelessness and recklessness. If magic causes you to fall into danger, it should also eliminate you from the plane … Only by using this path can one not fall into the crime of destroying the law.”
“we dedicate ourselves to magic itself, not to see it as a weapon that can subvert the world. Only when one learned not to use magic would one understand true wisdom. Use magic at the most appropriate time, and not for the price. A truly powerful spell caster was an ascetic who could control his desire to cast spells. wisdom and thinking are the true power of magic.”
“Learn new magic and create new magic. self-learning and creation were better than following scrolls and asking for help from teachers. casting spells in creation and sharing spells in casting are the true essence of magic immortality.”
the final practitioner will obtain eternal wisdom, achieve eternal will, co-exist with Arthur, be immersed in the world, and become one with magic.
In the end, sisylvana gently placed her hand on Zhao Xu’s forehead and said gently, ”
“Are you willing to be my chosen one, zhongxia?”
Zhao Xu clenched his fist and made a vow.
“I hereby swear to defend magic until death.”
[ casting zhongxia, you have made an oath to the source of magic, ” defend magic until death. the second oath is valid. ]
