Chapter 42: Speculations on the Trial Path

"Huh, I'm really a bit tired."

In the Hall of Stars, Hastur retracted his gaze from the star where the Lamp God was, leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and thought about what he had just gained.

After whipping the Lamp God twice at the beginning, he found that he still had about half of his spiritual power, so he thought about experimenting to see if he could have a more direct impact on the Wish God Lamp.

This is what happened when Bernadette opened the door.

He didn't want to conflict with Bernadette for the time being, and his spiritual power was losing faster. When Bernadette took action to strengthen the seal, he left and returned to the Hall of Stars.

After tonight's test, he has determined that the current Lamp God is not a threat to him.

For more than a month, he would take time to whip the Lamp God every night. In addition to testing whether the Lamp God now has the ability to fight back, there is another attempt.

Now there are only about 19 years left before the predicted doomsday of 1368.

In these 19 years, he wants to be promoted to Sequence 1 and establish a kingdom to become the new Black Emperor. Time is really too tight.

Especially in the Black Emperor's apotheosis ceremony, the time he needs to spend will definitely exceed ten years!

He remembered that the Black Emperor's apotheosis ceremony was:

To have a country of his own, to make his own name closely associated with the title of emperor, and to become common knowledge among the people.

A set of strict and complex but abnormal rules must be established, including architectural style, customs and habits, etc.

Then nine pyramid-like mausoleums must be built. After secretly entering one of the mausoleums, with the participation and approval of most of the people, the corresponding sacrificial ceremonies scattered in different cities must be used to take the Sequence 0 potion.

Finally, resist madness and maintain rationality, and it is possible to successfully advance to Sequence 0 Black Emperor.

It is difficult to become a Black Emperor, especially when the previous Black Emperor failed not long ago.

Then, jumping to the adjacent Judgment Path is a good choice.

Because he speculated that the apotheosis ceremony of the Sequence 0 Judge of the Judgment Path would take less time than the apotheosis ceremony of the Black Emperor.

His speculation mainly came from the apotheosis ceremonies of several known paths.

For example:

Wrong path: To become a Sequence 0 error is to replace someone else in their apotheosis ceremony.

Storm Path: To become a Sequence 0 Tyrant, you need to have hundreds of thousands of followers who surrender out of fear, then challenge a god, and successfully survive.

Red Priest Path: To become a god, you must start a war that sweeps across the continent and win.

Visionary Path: Let the development of the times meet your expectations, and then take potions to advance at key points and in the prescribed trend of the times.

Other references to the rites of deification include the Eternal Blazing Sun and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom

The Sun, the White Tower, and the Tyrant became gods after the same event, so it can be inferred that their rites of deification should also involve the power of the god level.

From these rites of deification, a relatively credible conclusion can be drawn that the rites of deification are generally related to the names of their corresponding Sequence 0.

Based on this, Hastur has tried many times to speculate on the rites of deification of the Sequence 0 Judge of the Judgment Path.

The rite of deification of the Judge is most likely to be: to judge the sins committed by other gods and make them obey the verdict!

In addition to judging the existence of the god level, Hastur can't think of what else the Sequence 0 Judge can judge for the time being.

Judge a true god at Sequence 1 and make that true god obey the judgment. This difficulty and status are enough to support a new true god.

After all, judging the sins of a true god is equivalent to shaking the anchor of faith in the true god.

In this case, if someone successfully ascends to the throne of God, then there must be a god who will go crazy or even fall because of the chaos and shaking of the anchor of faith.

Hastur reasonably suspects that the reason why there is no Sequence 0 in the Judge Path at present may be because the seven great gods do not allow it.

In their past history, they have committed many sins, because evil and good have never been moral issues that gods need to consider.

Especially the Storm Lord, the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, and the Eternal Sun who shared the ancient sun god.

If there were no Judgment and Justice cards in the twenty-two tarot cards, he would think that the Justice card should belong to the Judgment Path, not the Audience Path.

The audience of justice... this sounds very strange.

The judgment of justice... this is very pleasing to the ear and reasonable.

Of course, all this is just Hastur's personal speculation. He only dared to think about these things when he was in the Hall of Stars. In reality, he would not dare to offend the true God in this way.

If his speculation came true, then he would have a very good opportunity to become a god in the future.

When Amon and the Fool began to compete for the Lord of Mysteries, Adam became a god as a dreamer, and imagined the strength of the half-step Old One to seal the Lord of Storms, the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, and the Eternal Sun, so that they could not leave the Kingdom of God in a short time.

At this time, if he could become the Sequence 1 Prince of Sequence Killing, plus gather three copies of the Sequence 1 extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness of the Judgment Path, then he could take this opportunity to judge the true God!

I believe that Amon and Adam are happy to see the judgment of these three true gods. If he makes friends with the Goddess of Night, then his god-making ceremony will basically be completed by more than half.

If it really doesn't work, the Hall of Stars can bring the Old One to a meeting with the Outer Gods, choose an Outer God, and judge Him. I believe that the existing seven major gods will not stop it.

The lamp god is a very suitable choice.

Sealed in the wishing lamp, his existing power is limited, and he is also an outside god involved in the path of judgment and the Black Emperor. There is really no more suitable candidate than him.

Furthermore, there is another possibility. The godhood ceremony of the Sequence 0 judge may be related to education, rules, and order.

Anyway, whipping the djinn and giving him judgment and education may, in the long run, allow you to perform the role in advance.

Just like Klein moving faster and faster in the later stage.

In the short term, testing the djinn gods is something that must be done. Only by testing the authority of the Hall of Stars first can they be invited to come here for a meeting.

Moreover, the Djinn is an existence at the top of the path of judgment and the Black Emperor. Sooner or later he will be an enemy. It is very reasonable to whip him. It can also make you feel better, so why not?

There are definitely adventures, but in the mysterious world, which choice does not require risk?

Hastur quietly pondered the relevant issues, and the starry sky above his head shed brilliant light, adding an aura of holiness and immortality to him.

After some thought, he decided to wait.

When he uses the second chain of order to formulate a new rule, he can then bring the djinn to the Hall of Stars. This is double insurance.

But for the second rule, he has no idea yet.

After thinking for a long time, Hastur left the Hall of Stars until his head felt like it was bursting with pain.

When he fainted and fell into a deep sleep, he seemed to see a chain of order glowing with starlight integrated into his right arm.

In a daze, the chain of order can also transform into different weapons, which can be controlled by oneself.

"Sure enough, I am so tired that even my dreams are blurry."

Hasta woke up early in the morning, patted his still-swollen head, and lay on his back on the quilt for another ten minutes before getting up.

Get out of bed and simply move your fists and feet. You can really feel the powerful power contained in every muscle of your body.

He squatted down on his horse and punched straight away, which made a somewhat empty explosion.

With a slight jump in the room, he could easily jump more than two meters high, and almost hit the roof. Fortunately, his hands supported the roof in time, so he did not cause an accident.

"Tsk, if you go to the Olympics with a body like this, you can at least win one or two gold medals, right?"

In the room, Hastur gradually adapted to his surge in strength due to the barbarian.

I picked up the usually heavy cane and waved it twice, and it obviously felt much lighter, like holding a plastic stick.

"Weapons suitable for barbarians should be heavy weapons such as maces and hammers, right?"

Hastur imagined that scene. He was holding a big hammer and smashed it with one strike, directly smashing through the people and the house!

If this were on an ancient battlefield, he would definitely be a fierce general!

Hasta thought about it and felt that it was too bullying.

It was only now that he had the feeling of being an extraordinary person, someone who was superior to ordinary people and possessed something extraordinary.

After staying in the room for another twenty minutes, Hasta left the room and went out to freshen up and have breakfast.

His appetite is much larger than usual. Maybe his digestive system also evolved when he was promoted to barbarian.

"..."

Butler Neal looked at Hastur, who was enjoying his meal today but trying to remain elegant while eating, with a silent expression on his face.

After breakfast, Hasta did not go to Backlund University to study. He had taken a few days off in advance to serve as an adaptation period.

Come to the study, sit at the desk, take out a blank piece of paper, and prepare to sort out the rules for playing a barbarian.

The difficulty for him in playing the role of a lawyer is to memorize and remember the complicated provisions. As for the core points of distorting the law, using the law for his own benefit, and the law must conform to the trend of the times, it is not difficult for him.

After all, the laws he knew were beyond this era. Even if he was not a legal professional, he still knew a lot of modern laws.

Especially after an outlaw maniac who was good at popularizing science using Zhang San as an example appeared, he also followed many lectures.

Playing a barbarian made him a little bit embarrassed.

His current status is that of a nobleman, and nobleman is a symbol of courtesy and elegance. This is the opposite extreme of being a barbarian.

What is a barbarian?

When you are undecided, you will be dealt with with a big stick instead of stopping to patiently tell you the facts and reason.

They are the opposite of rules and order, and often conflict with, ignore, and destroy rules and order.

The powerful force prevents them from being bound by rules. They go their own way and ignore the rules of the game set by the outside world.

At the same time, they are also representatives of no brains and relatively low IQ.

Another way is that when they are rejected by mainstream concepts and disliked, they will naturally be called barbarians.

Hastur patiently summarized the key points of playing a barbarian. Although it may not be correct, it is generally in this direction.
