"The throne of the Goddess of Chaos is empty. If you come now, you'll have a chance to truly become undying."
This was a slogan that all the major factions had used in order to attract all the descenders and the New Gods to migrate to the mortal plane when the New Gods descended.
This was just like "The president's term is up. As long as you sign up, you'll also have a chance to become president." Everyone knew that this was the truth, but everyone also knew that it was the same as not saying anything at all.
Most of the people who participated in the election were definitely not aiming for the highest position. They were either aiming for the position of a state councilor, representing a certain tribe to express their voice, or simply to get familiar with others and lay a foundation for the future. The most ambitious ones were probably aiming for a position with real power in a certain department.
The throne? Many people didn't even dare to think about it until the very end.
Those who truly had a chance to compete for the throne were the most powerful existences, Holy Sons, and so on. Weren't the so-called "seeds" that the major factions had carefully selected precisely for the sake of preparing for the throne?
"Mist, or demonic mist, is obviously the Concept closest to Chaos in this world. Originally, it should only be something that passes through time, passing by in a flash. However, you all used your Divine Concepts to define it. In that case, the Goddess of Mist obtained the power to use her divine power in exchange for the power of mist. In a way, she can control Chaos."
"Perhaps you all still don't understand just how heaven-defying this ability is. Perhaps you all view the inert Chaos as a type of defensive power. However, she's currently the closest candidate to the throne of Chaos."
The two archmages' words helped Rorschach understand just how serious this matter was. However, they couldn't hide the joy on their faces.
Was it because they wanted a chance to break through to the highest level? Rorschach felt that they were probably going crazy over the chance to study true Chaos.
"What do you all intend to do? The Cloud Tower and Parliament will fully support your decision. Competing for the throne of Chaos is the only opportunity in this world. Since fate has given you all the opportunity, please don't give up so easily. "
"Even if you're unable to climb to the top, you can use this as a bargaining chip to obtain a position for yourselves in the new era. Gemini, your parents were once our old friends. No matter how you look at it, we'll be powerful allies and partners."
The invitations from the Cloud Tower and the Great Mages were very sincere. The original superior-subordinate relationship had been turned into cooperation. Rorschach didn't hesitate and directly agreed.
The reason? If he refused, he would offend everyone, but if he agreed, he would be able to get support. The giant eyeball was right above his head, so Rorschach couldn't think of a reason to refuse.
And this is
After a short discussion, the two Great Mages went to do their own things.
They had traveled thousands of miles to come here, and their schedules and schedules were already packed to the brim. They had requested for a sufficient number of Game Church Priests to provide them with sufficient Primordial Mist for research … Rorschach felt that this was the reason why they had rushed here at all costs.
As for Rorschach and Lori … they still did what they were supposed to do.
Life still had to go on. First, they had to survive this war. However, in the list of potential enemies, there would probably be quite a few Aishi People.
As for Loli, she probably couldn't slack off anymore. Since she knew that the pitch-black object was full of treasures, she and her team would have to work hard to turn it into actual combat strength so that they could take the lead in future battles.
"… I hope that it won't spread everywhere in a short period of time. We don't want to start a Divine War right now."
Obtaining the Primordial Mist Domain didn't mean that one would definitely be the final winner. It could only be said that one had won at the starting line, and the race hadn't even begun yet.
The various Primordial Mist Domains in the new world were the most tempting fruits on the Golden Tree. However, there were also differences in quality among these fruits.
Back in the day, when Rorschach was still idling around in Saul, he had met countless War Gods, dozens of Goddess of Wealth, and countless Goddess of Love. That was because everyone had their eyes on the best fruits.
These popular Primordial Mist Domains had already proven their potential and future in Aishi. They could give birth to a Greater God or even a God King. Naturally, the new Gods all put these Primordial Mist Domains on their heads. There were so many of them that they even needed to be numbered.
Becoming a God and seeking a good Primordial Mist Domain or Divine Throne might be something that the true top Gods wouldn't care about. However, for most of the stronger Gods, this was a fast path to immortality.
It was said that this series was invented by the Goddess of Order in the later stages. She used each Primordial Mist Domain to connect everything in the world. It was like countless key points on a map, and countless points formed a stable world.
Or to put it bluntly, it was like a government department. The establishment of these Primordial Mist Domains undoubtedly made the region and country run more smoothly.
This was part of the World Order. However, it was impossible to become a God in Aishi. Even if you found a new Primordial Mist Domain, you wouldn't be able to find enough believers to provide you with the Power of Faith. Moreover, now that they had entered the Information Age, the number of devout believers in Aishi had greatly decreased. When everyone knew what a God was, it was impossible to expect how many people would still be devout.
In Aishi, the new Gods in this era were all Level 3 Gods like the God of the Internet, the God of Live Streaming, and the God of Rap. They were the trendsetters of this era. They seized the opportunity to seize the new Divine Throne and become Gods in one fell swoop. However, not only did they have very little Power of Faith, but they also didn't have any abilities to show.
They were only Immortals. Every fruit tree in Aishi's orchard had been contracted. The orchard next door had just opened, and not a single fruit tree had matured. Naturally, many adventurers and ambitious people came.
Many of them naturally came for the fruit with the most potential. And the most potential wasn't something that Aishi had experienced in the past. That was why there were so many Concepts like War, Wealth, and Love that were commonly seen in intelligent life.
But now, they were able to give themselves all sorts of random Primordial Mist Domains because they thought that this Primordial Mist Domain hadn't been established yet, and that the fruit trees hadn't matured yet. Everyone was self-appointed, and when the time came, there would only be one God who could become a God. At that time, they would either have to fight until their brains bled out or give up helplessly.
Not everyone thought that they would definitely win. Many people were very sly. They conveniently grabbed a bunch of Primordial Mist Domains and prepared a backup plan.
For example, the God of Wealth and Shipping Routes had been doing quite well recently. If she couldn't compete for the position of the God of Wealth in the future, she could give up and go for the God of Tourism, Shipping Routes, God of Protection for Tourists, and so on.
Too many Primordial Mist Domains wouldn't do either. That would cause the existence of the Gods to fall into chaos. Many Primordial Mist Domains wouldn't do well in the end. Furthermore, the amount of faith that each God could obtain was limited. Rather than dividing the Primordial Mist Domains among the Gods and causing everyone to be underdeveloped, it would be better to raise the Primordial Mist Domains to obtain tangible returns.
The Primordial Mist Domains themselves could also provide returns. The God of War's Battlefield Grace, the Goddess of Wealth's Fortune, and the Goddess of Love's inexplicable friendliness and love were all quite useful in battles between Gods and the competition for believers.
A good Primordial Mist Domain not only provided useful abilities, but also made it convenient to attract believers. At the same time, it could also bestow more Concepts to obtain Followers. Apart from the fierce competition, there were too many benefits.
In the new era, there weren't any specific "Primordial Mist Domains." All the Primordial Mist Domains were empty. Especially Primordial Mist Domains like War and Wealth Domains hadn't been created yet. The main reason was that these abstract Concepts hadn't been recognized by the world's population and people. They needed time to mature.
At the same time, it was also because the Primordial Mist Domains of Order had yet to take shape, and the entire world was still in Chaos.
But as the Chaos (Mist) dissipated and Order gradually appeared, some people had already discovered that Primordial Mist Domains like Rivers and Quagmires could be obtained. However, such Primordial Mist Domains clearly lacked potential and might not even be able to attract believers. Which new God would be willing to be called the King of Mud?
And now, the God of Games, Lori had refreshed and obtained the Primordial Mist Domain. It wasn't a self-proclaimed God like the previous competitors, but a true Primordial Mist Domain that had been confirmed but hadn't been taken. Lori, who had suppressed an entire pantheon, had completely digested all three types of Primordial Mist Domains.
Perhaps it wasn't the path to the Goddess of Chaos since how could the pantheon of Order be connected to the Lord of Chaos? However, it allowed Lori to continuously familiarize herself with and understand Chaos. That alone made it a top Primordial Mist Domain.
Back then, Lori had chosen the God of Games. In a certain sense, it was a form of abandonment. It was a form of self-expression in the eyes of others to give up on competition and just dawdle away.
"I really didn't expect you to be so far-sighted back then. Obtaining the Game Primordial Mist Domain was just to make the competitors lower their guard. What you were after was a higher level of Mist Domain."
"Heh, I heard from the grapevine that the previous generation of these two were big shots. They must have gotten some useful insider information!"
There were some things that could not be hidden. Soon, the news had spread throughout the city. Many people came up with conspiracy theories and theories in their minds.
In fact, Lori hadn't thought that far. She just wanted to survive and avoid the intense competition in the early stages.
But now, the Game Church and their subordinates had a look of "That's right, that's what we thought back then", "That's just a tactic", and "Our goal is always the highest."
After all, the Game Church now really had the potential to compete. Moreover, with the upcoming war, they didn't have to do anything to boost their morale. There was no reason to refuse such a good thing.
In a short period of time, the Game Church's reputation among Ansorenne's upper echelons increased. They went from being unknown to a new star that had been plotting for a long time.
We have a background. We really do have a background.
They didn't say anything, but everyone believed them. As time passed, even the upper echelons of the Game Church felt that they really did have a background and had insider information … Only Rorschach himself was really confused.
"Sister, tell me the truth. Did they … really tell you about it? Why didn't they tell our son at all? How biased. "
After a long while, Rorschach finally got a response.
[Tell your sister!]
"… So they really did tell my sister? Hello? Why aren't you talking? "
[… Your salary for this month is gone. Let's see how you explain it to your otaku daughter!]
