Of course, Roddy didn't know the exact reason behind this, but he hoped that he could give Merinsera a path that transcended the path of "revenge".
After all, if it was just "revenge", how far would Merinsera go to complete her revenge? Kill the leaders of the major tribes? Or kill all the other Dragons?
Even if her strength returned to the level of the Dragons, without the protection of any faction, her revenge would still be an illusion. Once she was surrounded, she would not be able to escape death.
In fact, Merinsera could understand this outcome even in the middle of the night when no one was around … But imagining it was one thing, and facing it was another.
Now, Roddy's words directly forced her to face the truth that she had been avoiding all this time.
And Roddy was also in an awkward situation. If he said anything wrong, Merinsera's anger and resentment would be unleashed on him. Therefore, the only thing Roddy could think of was to change the "path of revenge" from "destroying the body" to something else.
"I don't know why the gods left, but after talking to a god, I understand that you and I actually have the opportunity to reach that step."
He paused and said in a low voice, "Not a demigod, not a false god, or any other existence, but a god who has truly mastered the rules. If you have such an opportunity, if you can reach that step, how will the Dragons see you?"
Merinsera wasn't a fool who could be fooled with just a few words. She narrowed her eyes and shook her head. "Countless people, elves, and even all intelligent races want to achieve this goal. Of course, I have thought about it. But for so many years. No existence has ever reached that step. How do you think this is possible? "
"This is the third reason I came here." Roddy pointed at the Realm Teleportation Portal beside him. "I think all of this has an important connection with other planes, whether it's the demons, the elemental planes, or those unexplored worlds."
He paused for a few seconds. "Most importantly, 'miracles' have begun to appear in this world. This is different from the past. I guess the influence of the gods is infiltrating our plane again."
"Wait! You mean … now? Our plane might return to the Age of Gods? "
Merinsala's eyes widened, and the hesitation in her heart instantly vanished!
In the history of the Dragons, there were records of the "Age of Gods" … The contents of the information surfaced in her mind, and she clenched her fists. "Are you talking about … the real 'Divine Miracle'?"
Merlin and Sala usually had a cold expression on their faces, and had never been so agitated. Roddy was also startled by her because he didn't know what the Age of Gods was, nor did he know what a real miracle looked like.
But obviously, he had successfully diverted her attention from "revenge".
Roddy had no choice but to tell her about the process of dealing with the Holy Assembly, but Merinsera was much calmer after listening. "I'm afraid it's still a long way off."
"Do you mean 'miracles'?"
"Yes, what you've witnessed can indeed be considered a type of 'miracle'. But even this kind of power that ordinary people found inconceivable was actually less than one ten-thousandth of a god's energy. But … this level is also the beginning. "
This time, Roddy was really shocked. Kardashian and the others who had witnessed all this had never mentioned this topic to him, and the other Dragons had never talked about the true power of the gods. How did Merinsera know all this?
"You want to ask why the Dragons didn't tell you, right?"
The Elementalist seemed to have seen through Roddy, and she laughed contemptuously. "Only the Shadow Dragons have truly dealt with the gods, and the other chiefs have always regarded themselves as the 'guardians of order'. They only worship the one and only Dragon God, and reject any other divine power."
This was another secret of the Dragons. Roddy immediately cast a Silence Barrier, and he couldn't help but lower his voice. "Did the Shadow Dragons betray the Dragon God?"
"The Dragons have multiplied for so many years, but none of them have ever become a real god. And in the era when the Dragon God could still respond, the Shadow Dragons believed that if they wanted to advance to the final form, they didn't necessarily have to walk the path of the Dragon God. So, the elders secretly did a lot of research. "
This simple sentence, the content behind it made Roddy's scalp tingle. To put it bluntly, the Shadow Dragons' behavior was similar to "treason"!
"Then … what's the result of the research?"
"The energy transmission of space has a fixed law," Merinsera quickly explained. "The Shadow Dragons left some magic arrays that can calculate the current 'capacity' of the current plane by calculating the energy level of the 'miracle'. If the 'miracle' exceeds a certain standard, it means that the demigod of the current plane has a chance to break through the shackles and become one of them."
"What does that mean? Does becoming a god depend on the current situation of the current plane? "
"That's right! According to the records, there has never been a god who appeared consecutively within a hundred years. They always appear at least a hundred years apart, showing a certain pattern. "
The more Merinsera spoke, the more excited she became. This was because this was a secret that no one in the clan had mentioned for many years. The miracles had disappeared for many years, and in the last three generations of the Shadow Dragons, no one had thought about becoming a god, because they all knew that it was impossible.
And Roddy's news had indeed ignited a new hope for her!
But after she finished speaking, she found that Roddy's expression became more and more serious, and even his lips were tightly pursed.
"What's … wrong?"
"I suddenly thought of something. Something doesn't feel right."
He pointed at Merinsera. "Because of your father, the Dragons quickly decided to annihilate the Dragons. The motive was that they felt that the Shadow Dragons had fallen.
"But it turned out that it was all because of the wrong decision made by the two corrupted chiefs. Someone else influenced their decision, and it was very likely that the person came from another plane …"
Merinsera nodded, seeming to understand. "And then?"
"Is there a possibility that there is a deeper motive behind this? For example, a certain existence has always known about the Shadow Dragon Clan's research on the gods, and he did not want the Shadow Dragon Clan to disclose this secret to the public. In order to silence the Shadow Dragon Clan, he planned such a plot to kill each other …"
As soon as he finished speaking, Merinsera's eyes instantly widened, and her heart almost stopped beating.
"Between the gods, it's not a situation where everyone is on good terms with each other. The battles between them are far more intense than what mortals can imagine. You've just said that the time between the appearance of each god is very long. This should mean that there is a shortage of resources … Wanting to become a god is as difficult as having a magnificent army crossing a single-plank bridge."
Roddy used magic to create a vortex in the air. "The Shadow Dragons discovered some of the gods' secrets. They thought that no one else knew, and they also thought that the Dragon God didn't know. But … maybe this is because the Dragon God is not in a hurry to act?"
He controlled the vortex to open and expand it. "And when it is time to act, they don't want others to find out, so …"
Merinsera couldn't help but shiver. "The Dragon God … would do such a thing?"
"I am just making a hypothesis — from an outsider's point of view."
