The Age of Gods, as the name suggests, is the"age of the gods."
There are gods in the sky, on the earth, and in the sea.
Love originates from God, hate originates from God, war and death originate from God.
The so-called laws of nature are the powers used by the gods. The world belongs to the gods, and the gods exist for this reason.
There are still various opinions on whether the legends and beliefs that have survived in modern society around the world, as well as the gods mentioned in religions, really come from the same source. But in the eyes of modern magicians, various legends are just an explanation for the actual existence of the Age of Gods. The gods do exist, but - when the age of mankind came, they also disappeared without a trace.
The disappearance of the Age of Gods is divided into three stages: decline, farewell, and opportunity.
It is unknown when the decline phase of the Age of Gods began, but there is evidence that it ended around 12,000 BC.
In that era, large-scale disasters occurred on the earth, and from that time on, the primitive mythical civilization began to decline.
In fact, this disaster is the predator star approaching the earth, releasing the star soldier sefar02-or the giant god Altira on the moon, and beginning to invade the earth.
At that time, sefar02 defeated the original military god who guarded the planet in the form of Falu. In order to deal with this enemy, Gaia forged the legendary"Star-Made Holy Sword". In the end, Sefaru was killed by the"Holy Sword" holding the holy sword. The"Sword Maker" was destroyed, and the ancient civilizations were also destroyed as a result.
The farewell of the Age of Gods means that the Age of Gods begins to end, that is when the gods begin to disappear and say goodbye.
In this regard, the farewell moments vary from pantheon to pantheon, and are not generally accepted to have begun with the Mesopotamian pantheon—or Babylonian civilization.
Because it was predicted that the true ether would eventually disappear and the gods would pass away, the gods of Mesopotamia planned to continue the era of gods through their own unique methods.
But all the plans came to nothing because of a king.
That was their means of maintaining the Age of Gods, and it was also their desperate move - the king who was made to closely connect humans and gods, the hybrid of humans and gods, the man who was regarded as the wedge of heaven and given expectations - the King of Heroes Gilgamesh.
However, what he did was contrary to the mission given to him by the gods, that is, to break away from the control of the gods.
Because of Gilgamesh's resistance, the Mesopotamian gods' desperate attempt ultimately failed, and they began to gradually lose their power and then disappear from the world.
For the era after the Age of Gods, they are already gods. After completing their mission, they chose to leave this world and went to a higher-dimensional world, looking at the world as nothingness... After the main gods disappeared from the world, they stayed behind The only thing in the world is their attachment to the present world, and this is quickly disappearing after passing by, and it is gradually replaced by"legends" in people's consciousness. They are trying to find ways to continue the age of gods and continue their rule over the earth. Such things Mesopotamian gods are not the only ones doing this, other pantheons are also doing similar things.
The gods don't know why the Age of Gods will disappear, nor when this day will come, but they still leave enough backup for themselves.
However, they were all frightened by the scene where the Mesopotamian gods made a desperate move and then failed and disappeared. Therefore, compared to the Mesopotamian gods, none of the other pantheons could make up their minds to maintain their existence together. On two plans with uncertain success rates.
Compared with the gods of Mesopotamia, their methods are relatively mild.
Take the Heliopolis pantheon for example. The plan they prepared was to maintain the existence of the gods through pharaohs who were descendants of the gods. This plan was actually the same as in Mesopotamia - the pharaohs of the past generations were their"wedge of heaven""As long as the rule of the Pharaoh continues, even if the age of gods disappears one day, the gods of Egypt can still exist in the world.
Of course, having learned lessons from the Mesopotamian pantheon, the Egyptian gods had a completely different attitude towards their"wedge of heaven". Gamesh's control led the proud"Wedge of Heaven" to rebel against the gods, and ultimately both sides suffered losses.
Therefore, after learning their lesson, the gods of Heliopolis simply returned to heaven after several generations of gods personally led the Egyptians out of ignorance, leaving everything in the world to Pharaoh and mortals, although they would use divine magic to The method provides certain help to mortals, but they unanimously agree not to intervene in mortal disputes and leave all fate to mortals.
This is also the reason why they praise Nitocris so much - after all, the prosperous age and system created by Nitocris can be regarded as the"foundation of all ages". For the Heliopolis pantheon, , this is clearly the credit for extending their lives.
However, after communicating with each other, Ye Ting discovered that compared to the other gods he knew, the gods of the Heliopolis pantheon were indeed quite strong and worthy of respect.
According to Ra's words:"As gods, we must abide by the responsibilities of gods and maintain the dignity of gods. If fate is doomed to our demise, then we will accept it without reservation and happily return our responsibilities to this world. , making a farewell that belongs to the gods, instead of being like dogs who are willing to harm the mortals who worship us just to survive - this is the true majesty of the gods."
In other words, if one day the pharaohs are no longer represented by their descendants The Son of God takes over, or Egypt no longer worships the gods of Heliopolis, leading to their disappearance. That is also a choice of fate, and they will accept it calmly.
Although they are a bunch of ancient antiques, they are unexpectedly worthy of admiration.
The gods that Ra mentioned were willing to harm those who worshiped them just to survive were the Greek Olympus pantheon.
The way the Olympus pantheon chooses to extend their lives also makes use of the blood of gods. However, unlike the Heliopolis pantheon, it is impossible for the Olympian gods with serious internal disputes to uniformly select one line to unify. Greece, and the pharaoh-like existence that has continued to rule - in this regard, they would be crazy just because of the question of whose descendants they should choose - so they simply did not stop doing it, and everyone sown seeds on the ground. , and at the same time use various methods to spread their beliefs.
Their plan is to use this to maintain their existence in the future era after the disappearance of the true ether - which is why they value faith so much that they would even re-create humans twice.
However, they also used blood and faith to maintain their existence, but the way they started was very wanton and reckless. They completely used humans as tools, and even did so more exaggeratedly than the gods of Mesopotamia.
But unlike their failed predecessors, they are even smarter: Greece is not unified, and even the city-states are divided, so even if some people are disgusted with their actions, in such troubled times, even the king You have to pray for the blessings of the gods, which ensures that people have to believe in them forever. _To read the ununderlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
