Hearing this, the white-haired old man standing next to Joshua touched his beard and shook his head with emotion or suspicion, not sure whether it was with emotion or doubt. Pope Eagle whispered: "Gold and Ultimate Intent are indeed what you said, but the birth of a legendary strong man can only depend on personal luck and understanding, and it is impossible to predict."
"However." At this point, the old pope closed his eyes and nodded seriously: "You are indeed right. Mycroft's world is not without geniuses, but we lack the conditions to discover them."
Just in the main city of Moldavia, which has a population of less than one million, it is possible to find 8,000 'geniuses' with golden potential, not to mention tens of thousands of people with good qualifications. Through hard work, training, and resources, Talents who also have a chance to achieve gold, as well as hidden people who cannot be detected, have a chance of close to 10%, which is simply unbelievable.
If all the people in Mycroft's world become extraordinary, then there is no doubt that these talented people who were originally buried will become the mainstay of civilization. Even if the population is only a few hundred million, there will be tens of millions of golden powerhouses and hundreds of thousands of extremely powerful people. He is also an incredible force.
"Based on the information revealed by the Great Khan of the Shepherd, we can basically confirm that the outside world galaxy is in an extremely chaotic state of war. The chaotic convergence phenomenon we observed before was caused by these wars."
Joshua stared at the fragment of steel hanging over Moldavia. This fragment of steel came from the world of stars and could improve the qualifications of ordinary people. Now the warrior himself can make it. He doesn't mind sharing his power with Others, but before that, he had to let others know the seriousness of the present tense.
"Those powerful void civilizations each have the power to destroy Mycroft's world - even in terms of high-end powerhouses, we are not inferior to them, or even more powerful than them, but what about logistical supplements? They have lost a A fleet might be able to be replenished in a few years, but if we lose a legendary powerhouse, can it be replenished in a few years?"
In this regard, the old pope remained silent, and Joshua did not continue to speak.
After a long time, Eagle sighed: "I understand what you mean... You want me to open a Paladin Academy or even a Priest Academy just like you did when you opened a Professional Academy, right? Popularize extraordinary people by any means necessary. , unearth talents from them, and then use the exploration of other worlds at the Ten Thousand Realms Sacrifice to collect resources and train them... a seamless plan."
"But Joshua, the inheritance of the Holy Light is not that simple. If you don't cultivate a pure heart for good from an early age, it will be extremely difficult to connect with the Holy Light and gain power. It has always been difficult to replenish the staff of the priests. It’s hard for anyone to survive the initial hardship stage.”
Joshua glanced at the Pope and said strangely: "Wouldn't it be better to train them from an early age? Nine years of compulsory education, and students starting from the age of six. With the reputation of the Church of the Seven Gods, ordinary people in the Far South may cry and shout Everyone will send their children to church, right? It may be difficult for adults to have a pure heart, but it should be much easier for children."
"And maybe the children sent by thoughtful people not only from the Far South, but from the entire continent, may be able to burst the entire Far Sea Holy Mountain - no matter how hard they endure, there will still be a large number of children who meet the requirements."
Where does the church get so much money? !
Eagle originally wanted to angrily rebuke Joshua for his whims. You must know that the Church of the Seven Gods is not a political organization. In addition to the voluntary contributions of believers, most of the income relies on the slaying of demons by the priests. If not Because the church, as a high-level organization of extraordinary beings, has its own unique channels for obtaining resources, they have long been too poor to take the blame.
But now, after thinking carefully for a while, the old pope couldn't help but be surprised to find that the Church of the Seven Gods... is actually really rich!
The dividends from the Other World Exploration Plan alone and the income from those mining worlds are enough to complete the most basic college construction and personnel recruitment!
Seven gods above! Now that we have resources, things will be much easier to handle.
Eagle originally thought that opening a clergy college was not a bad thing, but it was just because the time had not come yet (the main reason was lack of money), but now that he thought about it, maybe now, it would be the way to spread the Holy Light on a large scale. moment.
"But Joshua, you invited me here specifically not just to talk to me about problems that can be solved through the communication circle."
After planning a development blueprint in his mind for a moment, the old pope withdrew his mind. He turned his head and looked at Joshua: "Tell me, let me hear what problem is it that can stump you."
"It's not that I'm stumped. His Majesty the Pope, I just want to ask if the Church of the Seven Gods, which has fought the most with the Abyss, is aware of the concept of 'the lowest level of the Abyss'."
Joshua did not beat around the bush. After getting the Pope to relent and agree to the large-scale training of priests, a system of extraordinary power with extremely comprehensive abilities, he simply asked the real purpose of this invitation: "You know, according to the Shepherd News from the Great Khan, there may be something mysterious in the abyss... But I don’t know anything about it.”
Even in the previous life, the news about the abyss was limited to the Demon King Goliath of the Sixth Abyss. Joshua only knew that this powerful demon king unified the powers of multiple abyss and used it as a foundation to brazenly invade Mycroft's world. Of course, the invasion was not successful. The legendary strongman Decapitation Corps headed by Brandon will His body was killed in the Valley of Tears Fortress, interrupting the offensive of the Abyss. Since then, the war has fallen into a cruel tug-of-war. He crossed the Abyss during its final counterattack.
The exploration of the abyss must have happened after that version. Anyway, Joshua didn't know what would happen next. Now, he could only come and ask the most knowledgeable old pope.
"I don't know either. In fact, even the concept of the lowest level of the abyss does not exist in the books of the Church of the Seven Gods."
Eagle's answer was very straightforward. He shook his head and smiled helplessly: "The abyss is bottomless, where does the bottom come from? As ruins stacked together after the destruction of countless worlds, its layers are based on the distance from our Mike Luo. Calculated based on the distance from the husband world, for example, the nearest abyss to us, which is the First Abyss, is right next to the world of Kallis. It is a very small demiplane world with no demons in it, just simple Compared to the dead world, the sixth and seventh abyss are relatively far away."
"But for the world of Kallis, our sixth abyss is its third abyss... According to this algorithm, who can determine which abyss is the bottom? Even the Gray Knight who has traveled the farthest in the abyss can't The end of the abyss has never been explored.”
"That certainly seems to be the case."
Hearing this, Joshua nodded and agreed with the old pope's statement.
But he still said: "But even so, we still have to explore this. Even if the Great Khan of the Star Shepherd lied or was deceived by their so-called ancient books, we should not give up on this The power that may exist... I really can't, even if I find the ruins of the battle between the sages and the evil god of fertility in the past, I might be able to understand something by observing the traces of their battle."
"Is that so... Indeed, if it is a trace of the battle between the sage and the evil god of abundance, just this alone would be of great value."
Eagle couldn't help but fell into deep thought. Just as Joshua said, there is no need for any secrets or mysterious ruins. As long as the ruins of that battle can be found, for the powerful people in Mycroft World, the harvest is even greater than finding a perfect place for colonization. The new world is going to be bigger.
It's just that he really doesn't know where the 'bottom of the abyss' is.
However, even Saint Eagle, who is the most powerful person in the world, does not know where the so-called bottom of the abyss is.
But it doesn't mean that there is no one in Mycroft's world who knows this information.
In the southern city of Moldavia in the north, an elegant elf lady was sitting in a steel magic car. She touched the metal magic creation slightly nostalgically, seeming to recall the ancient past. Memories long lost in the flames of war and destruction.
Although he is no longer the original her, and his own memory has long lost any sense of reality, just like seeing flowers in a fog, but if it is just 'missing' and 'reminiscing', he can still do it.
"Back then, it took us eight hundred years to accomplish all this."
Stretching lazily, the elegant elf lady whispered to herself nostalgically: "And today's mortals have caught up with the shadow of the Glory Era in just a few years."
Of course, this is not surprising, because starting from scratch is always more difficult than retrieving existing technology. Even this generation of civilization has explored many unique technologies, and they are standing on the shoulders of giants and moving forward.
Civilization is like this. Each generation becomes stronger than the previous generation. Standing on the shoulders of the sages, ordinary people can even see further than the sages.
This is certainly not a strange thing and does not affect the greatness of the sages.
It's just that they, the gods who watch the reincarnation of the world... can't help but feel emotional about it.
