"When you look at the problem, you look at the small details, and you see the problems of a few people, a few families, or a tribe. But I am not like that. I care about bigger problems. I care about the survival of mankind as a whole. It is better to survive in an underdeveloped state than to come to an abrupt end at a certain point." Bermudo said with certainty, "Besides, in this experiment, am I not a god? Then I have mastered some power to some extent, and I can use this power to benefit those people. For example, I can give some people supernatural powers and let them serve as my messengers to help and educate mankind, isn't it great? Well... Those who are responsible for using power can be called knights, just like the Knights of Santiago or the Knights Templar. Those who are responsible for education are priests. They will build temples everywhere and spread our doctrines and scriptures. Well... No, maybe we don't need any scriptures, let alone red tape to complicate this sect. We just need to warn people to respect nature, fear nature, and obey my will. Let them not make changes at will and maintain the status quo obediently, and the world can develop peacefully.
If someone really wants to cause trouble and push the world towards destruction, these people have enough power to stop them, even if it means using force, just like the Crusades. "
Felicia said, "That's not a good analogy. You know it was a disaster, for both sides."
"Sorry, I just said it casually." Bermudo smiled and patted the other's hand to comfort him.
At this moment, Xiao Chen thought, isn't this the natural temple in that world? Both the form of expression and the concept are exactly the same as the temple.
The two brothers indeed have many similar ideas.
Xiao Chen asked again: "What if one day the people of this world really embark on the path of our world's human beings and develop steam, electricity, and even nuclear energy, then what will you do?"
"That's impossible. I will always pay attention to this world and will not let it go down this path," said Bermudo.
But you will never understand how unruly humans are, unwilling to submit to gods, whether in this world or that world, whether they are real gods or fake gods, I am afraid your brother can't imagine that humans in different eras have regarded him as a target for hunting, right? Xiao Chen thought.
He explained to Bermudo: "This is just a game. We have assumed a new situation. You can think of it as a new level."
"Haha, just like the game of Civilization?" Bermudo thought for a moment and said, "That depends on how the world has developed to this point. Is the whole world like here, generally accepting these concepts, or is it only a part of the people who have become like this, and some greedy people in power hope to use this power to control more countries.
If the whole world is like Earth, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do but let them develop, but if only a small part of it becomes like this, then maybe I'll try to isolate them."
Felicia: "Don't be silly, Bermudo. How can you isolate a group of people or even a country?"
"This is just a game, isn't it? I am a god. As a god, shouldn't I be able to do anything?"
Xiao Chen observed the other party's expression when he said these things. He caught a flash of ruthlessness in his expression. The other party must have been holding back when he said this. Perhaps the other party's real meaning was to do as the God of Nature did on another continent, and to eliminate all those who violated his "ideals"
At this time, the four of them had been eating for nearly two hours, and it was time for dessert.
Bermudo held the dessert spoon in his hand and cut the tiramisu in front of him into pieces. "Don't overestimate the ability of human beings to spread civilization. As long as the traffic between two places is cut off, in that era, the two places will be like two completely different worlds."
“But even in ancient times, humans migrated between continents. Whether humans left Africa or arrived in America, they all did so under extremely simple conditions. Natural barriers cannot stop the progress of mankind,” Felicia retorted.
"The Earth is a very flat planet. The so-called high mountains and cliffs are just a small wrinkle on the Earth's scale, and the raging waves are just small ripples on the sea. But I am a god. In that world, I may be able to create more terrible natural dangers, mountains that even airplanes cannot fly over, and raging oceans that even giant ships cannot sail through. Perhaps I can do even more."
"Vermudo, you sound like a tyrant," Felicia complained.
"Honey, this is a game. In the game, everyone becomes a tyrant," said Bermudo.
Xiao Chen was touched when he heard this. Could it be that Algodo in that world also faced the real world with such an attitude? He lost his memory of this world, so he became more reckless. He would not care about some things that Bermudo would consider. And with his power in that world, compared with the humans in that world, the entire human world is his big playground. He said: "Your point of view is very interesting. In your opinion, you don't need to be responsible for the toys, right?"
"No, no, even toys should be cherished by us, but where the toys are placed and how they are played are all decided by their owners. The owner will not ask the toys what they want. So even if I become a god, I will be a responsible god and give the humans under my rule the most reliable future."
"You are such a naughty guy, just like a little child." Felicia laughed.
"You see, this is why I love Felicia. Even if she thinks I'm a boastful idiot, she will gently describe me as naughty." Bermudo laughed. Xiao Chen and Luo Ling also laughed.
"However, speaking of this game, it is similar to some dreams I have had recently," said Bermudo.
"What did you dream about?"
"I dreamed of Algodo. It was a very absurd dream..." Bermudo shrugged, "That guy traveled to another world and became a powerful god-like creature in that world. He sat high in the sky and ruled the people on the earth. At that time, I really hoped that this dream was true!"
