Chapter 429: Chapter 431: Chaos Magic Sandbox
“That’s all the information on the three-eyed people? It seems that the gods have a good grip on this area, having completely eliminated all influence,” Qin Muye looked at the rural tales of the three-eyed people in the Magic Network.
Spirit Monster spies searched for nearly three months, only to gather information akin to minor tales.
However, these stories clearly show a transition, from initially being positive characters to gradually becoming antagonistic, and there are even rumors that these three-eyed people were once considered messengers of the gods or heretics.
There are no Evil Gods in this world, only heretics, and all those who don’t believe in the Divine are heretics.
“There is a commonality, though; the third eye is their source of power.”
“Even though these rural tales can’t be proven and are quite messy, at the very least, they demonstrate one thing: the three-eyed people likely exist, and they are widely dispersed.”
The spies didn’t limit their information gathering to one place but rather spread out far and wide, so naturally, the information about the three-eyed people came from all directions and was not obtained from the Transcendents, but from the locals.
The aware populace is indeed diverse; rumored to have been passed down orally and transformed continuously, they eventually became bedtime stories or tales to frighten children. The gods seem to have no further suppression, only maintaining the situation to prevent it from spreading.
Otherwise, if they genuinely tried to suppress or eliminate these absurd rural tales, it might lead to a counteractive effect. Now, isn’t it better? At least no one thinks they are real or spreads them.
When recorded in books, it’s forbidden, but when spoken by ignorant peasants, both priests and nobles would only consider it the ramblings of the lowly.
“The changes in the White Frost Duke are becoming more and more evident. Although he hasn’t grown a third eye, his logical actions are gradually suppressing the madness of reason and the distortion of thought. Now, this is interesting, but why, on what grounds?” Qin Muye was curious, yet he did not intervene.
With his meager strength, the White Frost Duke can suppress his madness, which Qin Muye could attribute to a strong will, but to maintain oneself while still receiving Chaos Magic from the Chaos Magic Sandbox is problematic.
The Chaos Magic Sandbox is what the White Frost Duke saw in ‘Dionysus’ Book of Wisdom.’ It connects to the Abyss Magic Network Sandbox, and all the magic he obtains is not regular magic. Everything is formed through real-time calculations, creating entirely new bizarre magic, and even the names are randomly combined.
The term Chaos is not for laughs; such magic comes with significant side effects. You attempt to cast Fireball Technique, but due to the interference of Chaos Magic during the weaving and shaping process, it ends up as Mage Armor or Ice Cone Skill instead.
This is fatal; casting protection magic on oneself turns into attack magic, and striking at an enemy suddenly changes to enhancement magic, etc.
Normally, falling into this pit, the White Frost Duke would not be able to climb back out, but the current situation is abnormal. He hasn’t climbed out, but he’s already started building a ladder at the bottom of the pit, preparing to climb out.
New novel chapters are published on freewёbn૦νeɭ.com.
Climbing out of a pit using a ladder is normal, but the question is… where did he get the materials to build the ladder?
“He keeps muttering about survival and reproduction, that must be what’s influencing him. But what exactly is it? A Divine? But I’ve never heard of these two deities before.”
Qin Muye was puzzled. The implication was easy to understand, but he didn’t understand why the other party would mutter about it.
However, not all was bad news. Over the past three months, the White Frost Duke had begun to spread Chaos Magic. The Chaos Magic Sandbox has connected many followers of the Magic God, and through these followers’ soul ownership rights, the sandbox further infiltrates into the divine position of magic.
Recently, the Magic God seems to have encountered some problems. According to reports from Spirit Monster spies who infiltrated the Divine Country of the Magic God, the Magic God recently appears to have some delays, as if his mind can’t keep up.
Although the Magic God is a third-rate deity with limited congregations and church scale, the actual number isn’t small. Outside of the White Frost Duchy, which hosts the largest Magic Church and the most followers, there are others elsewhere.
Probably the handiwork of the White Frost Duke, he is further obtaining the power of the Magic God and opens up an even larger gap by contaminating the Magic God’s followers.
Chaos Magic is tainted with the word Magic, and the priests of the Magic God also claim to be Mages, don’t they?
They are of the same nature.
Through this data, Qin Muye also learned something: the divine positions intended to directionally receive faith can actually influence the deities.
At least that’s what the data suggests for now.
Moreover, the impact must be significant, after all, the Magic God is but a third-rate Divine, not a massive deity like Holy Light or Fertility, so even a small disturbance has already affected it.
“No wonder they want to maintain a stalemate. It seems that Divine truly can’t withstand much,” Qin Muye had come to understand. Harvesting belief is one aspect, but if belief truly undergoes major changes, Divine entities genuinely can’t cope.
Especially widespread changes in cognition will certainly have a huge impact on Divine entities.
Belief itself is a form of cognition; when one mentions the Holy Light God, the first impression for all natives is protection, radiance, and sanctity.
These impressions naturally form part of the belief and are accepted by the Divine Position.
Qin Muye suspected that within this Divine Position, there were actually complex receptors as well as mechanisms for sorting, auto-updating, and so forth.
“What would happen if the believers’ impressions of Divine changed?”
“Would the Divine Position suffer from conceptual disarray?”
“It’s possible to try and have the Duke of the White Frost start a religious war and conduct a massacre that ignores noble war rules, gradually altering magic’s impression and meaning in the eyes of believers and the general public alike.”
This move was aimed not only at the Magic God but also at the War God and the God of Etiquette; these were two separate experiments.
For the Magic God, it is the influence of belief on Divine, while for the War God and the God of Etiquette, it is the overall change impacting them. Both gods are associated with the peculiar noble wars, so naturally, the most appropriate methods must be employed.
“However, the Duke of the White Frost may not be so willing,” Qin Muye knew that no one would agree to do such a thing if one simply asked directly.
So, he could only opt for a more subtle approach. At least, it had to be something the Duke would willingly partake in.
As for the certain entity behind the Duke of the White Frost, Qin Muye actually had plans for it as well, taking this opportunity to probe a bit.
Better to resolve matters ahead of time if possible; otherwise, leaving them aside is also irksome. Qin Muye didn’t know what this survival and proliferation thing was all about, but for now, he couldn’t find the party in question and had to take it one step at a time.
“So, it has to be initiated by him, we can only influence indirectly,” Qin Muye didn’t need to worry about how it would be accomplished, he had Spirit Monsters under his command to take care of it.
In a situation like this, one only needs to issue an order, and then the corresponding Spirit Monster will take on the task and carry out all sorts of scheming.
Qin Muye doesn’t need to master these things, because Spirit Monsters will master them for him.
Similar machinations really offer no help to Qin Muye’s strength; after all, his household is large and resource-rich. He has underlings to deal with people, so there is no need to constantly plot. He would benefit more from reviewing his budget than from these schemes.
Once the command was passed down, the corresponding department of Spirit Monsters began to further analyze intelligence and data, forming an actionable plan to fulfill Qin Muye’s orders.
One certainly can’t proceed with mere impulsive thoughts; such matters naturally demand rigor and also mobilization of many resources, because how can it be over just by talking? Even Zhuge Liang needed travel expenses to reach Dongwu’s domain.
Moreover, this involves a Duchy-level force; unless Qin Muye wants to annihilate them, which could involve dispatching Spirit Monsters to crush the opposition, planning would not be done in just three to five minutes; that is simply impossible.
From start to execution, it would require at least 24 hours, and constant real-time tracking and modifications are also necessary. Otherwise, how could one influence so many people without a sound?
“As for the Abyss Cult, everything seems normal, but that is the greatest abnormality… They’ve even brought an area into the early stages of industrialization…”
