There is a difference between Deities.

Ryan I don't know how to understand this final judgment. What is the difference?

There must be a difference between Lord of Dawn and Twilight's Surtr.

But what are those differences in the records of the nobility?

There is no record in the history books, and it seems that mortal words cannot record the existence of Deities, but one thing can be confirmed.

This difference makes the Deitiess fight each other to death, and even start a Pan-Plane war.

Church of Dawn regards Twilight as a heretic, but after Twilight's Surtr left, Dawn did not clamor to start a war with Deities and kill Surtr completely.

In other words, although Surtr is the enemy of Dawn, Dawn will not start a life-and-death war against it because of this.

So... what is it.

Ryan subconsciously called his Spirituality Panel and looked at Spirituality Blessing and Divine Essence above.

Is the answer difficult to guess?

In the eyes of mortals, these powers are the powers of Deities and Divine Essence.

But in the eyes of Deities, there is also a gap between origin and origin. Some are divinity, while others - are spirituality.

They used Taisu to describe Divine Essence, but suddenly one day, they discovered a power other than Taisu.

It seems that I can understand it.

It is God who initiates the war, and it is the spirit who accepts the war.

God and spirit together form War of the Deities Across Planes.

"Haha, everything is hidden in the literal meaning, War of the Deities Across Planes, Pan-Planar War of God and Spirit, it's that simple."

Ryan laughed, his smile a little bitter.

Judging from the current results, it seems that between War of the Deities, Ling has the upper hand.

But it cannot be so absolute. Ryan has Spirituality Panel and does not have a divine panel. What if those dead gods are not accepted by his panel?

The divinity in the last line on the panel is also presented in the quantity unit of Taisu.

Ryan There is not much fear, because for mortals, Deities Deities, is there any difference between gods and spirits?

They are all Great Being. With the belief in God, mortals believe in God. With the belief in spirits, mortals believe in spirits.

To mortals, gods are also spirits, and spirits are gods, so they call Great Being Deities.

Since Lord of Dawn did not cause trouble to Ryan before, there is nothing to worry about. You must know that Ryan Spirituality Panel absorbed the power contained in Dawn Doctrine before.

Also, in Northwind Province's war, Holy Kingdom Knights did not show the fighting power he should have, which was also the reason for Spirituality Panel. If there was really any conflict, Ryan would have been captured by Church of Dawn and sacrificed to Lord of Dawn.

Lord of Dawn is just sleeping, and his will is still shrouded in Norris's continent. The Church can also receive Divine Oracle, so if it really couldn't be hidden, it would have been exposed long ago.

And if it can be hidden.

What's there to be afraid of if you can hide it?

As a mortal, Ryan is not afraid of wearing shoes if he is barefoot, no matter what troubles there may be in the future, but for now, who cares.

"So, is Hound Deity a god or a spirit? At present, it seems that it is most likely the latter."

Because in the legend of the people of Gam, Hound Deity transformed into a hound to give them strength, and the extraordinary means mastered by the people of Gam are also closely related to the hound.

"According to the records, the nobles killed Deities. Those original powers did not reject or curse them, but accepted them and became the power of the nobles."

"Bloodline..."

Ryan thought to himself, Clayton Family's bloodline is also different, but this difference is definitely caused by the day after tomorrow, Blaze Dragon Knight Breathing Technique is only suitable for people like them.

"So, now I just need to find a way to kill Hound Deity. I don't have to worry about his power backlash. Even if there is a problem, I still have Spirituality Panel to protect me."

Ryan felt relieved. He wanted to find records of the nobles killing Deities, but there was none.

Regardless of the historical records of the Winter Count Family or Soron Count Family, there is no record of mortals fighting Deities.

With a long sigh, Ryan realized that it was too early for him to kill the gods.

The most active place for a noble like him now should be in the politics of the nobles, as well as in the interests of Royal Authority and theocracy. He is just a Golden Knight, and it seems a bit out of touch to think about killing Deities.

"First of all, we need to determine one thing, what kind of power can kill Hound Deity."

Ryan The only way at present is to write a letter to the Count Clayton Family.

He did exactly that when he returned to Frozen Earth Territory.

"I wonder how my father will react when he sees this letter."

Something very sudden happened to Frozen Earth Territory, and even Ryan was caught off guard.

Brock is going to be promoted to Sky Knight.

"In Imperial Capital, those representatives gave Master Brock a lot of wealth, which is very precious, and I want to exchange it for an opportunity and a quota."

Master craftsmen who can forge Legendary weapons, whether noble or extraordinary, or even Empire's emperor Imperial Capital, will treat him with courtesy, and Ryan who reacted also remembered that when he met Brock, the other party was already Golden Knight.

At that time, Brandt was still silver.

"From Golden Knight to Sky Knight, it proves your achievements on this extraordinary path and your qualifications to climb higher mountains."

Among the resources in Brock's hands, the most precious one is a Furnace Life Potion. This kind of Life Potion is supplied by the demons Mages to those Dwarves. Later, after the Craftsmen's Association's demand, the demons Mages partially transformed it and became Life Potion, which is also excellent for humans.

Craftsmen are keen on this potion because craftsmen who take Furnace Life Potion have a special sense of forging materials and Forging Hammer after becoming Sky Knight.

In addition to this potion, there are also some special materials, all of which contain huge energy.

Volund's Forge, this is the blacksmith shop left by Svadilfari's Legendary Artisan. Brock, who had taken the potion, kept hitting the blacksmith's table with the artifact Tyrfing Hammer. As the hammer fell, a thunderous roar resounded in the sky. On the field, the horses ran wildly, seemingly a little frightened.

The hammer fell one after another, and the aura on Brock became more and more terrifying. The majestic fighting spirit formed on the surface of his body, a flash of thunder and an illusory sky about to come. Under the thunder, the horse on the field was running wildly, and it never tired.

After nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine hammer blows, Brock contracted all the fighting spirit and blood in his body. After the two merged, the long energy and blood seemed to form some kind of cycle and echoed in Brock's body.

He put away the artifact Tyrfing Hammer and sent the hammered Knight's Greatsword into the ice and snow. The next moment, the steam boiled in the blacksmith shop and the ice and snow turned into scalding boiling water. Until the long sword cooled down, a black and shiny Knight's Greatsword appeared in front of everyone.

This is not the embryo of the Legendary weapon, but it is equally powerful. Even Legendary Knight without the Legendary weapon can use it as his own sword.

"Being Sky Knight... this feeling is very comfortable."

Brock smiled like this. The bearded man rarely smiled, but he was very happy today.

"You can become Sky Knight just by playing blacksmith. This is so unfair."

The arrogant girl Borgeld is a little unconvinced. She is still far away.

"Craftsman is also a skill. Just as magic is the skill of Mages, craftsmen can also become Legendary."

Ryan said with a smile, it is naturally gratifying for Brock to become Sky Knight, and this means that the quality of the weapons forged in his hands will be even higher.

No one knows about Svadilfari's knight breakthrough. Master Brock is still the same Master Brock, but now he no longer stays in the blacksmith shop all day. He rides the Griffin presented by the McReynolds Family to Northlands. He wants to find the precious forging materials in Northlands.

After becoming Sky Knight, it also means that the forging of Brock and the bottom layer has come to an end. He no longer needs to temper his Seed of Life and body Blood-and-Qi Force, Ryan through constant forging. E tried to have a fight with Brock. The violent thunder and fire power contained in Brock's body surprised him. The sudden burst of power was comparable to that of Lord Horla, who has been famous for a long time.

From this point of view, Lord Horla has been surpassed by the younger Brock.

"It seems that I still need to buy the Knight Combat Technique from those declining nobles."

Ryan thought this way, from Apprentice Knight to Golden Knight, the demand for Knight Combat Technique is not that necessary, because after all, they are powerful humans on the earth, and Sky Knight, their battlefields may appear in countless In an extreme environment, the most famous thing about the Empire is the battle between Grand Duke Mayers and a knight on a cliff when he was young. Wearing knight armor and having mounts, they walked on the cliff as if they were on the ground. In the end, the Grand Duke defeated his opponent with the powerful Knight Combat Technique.

It's just that something like Knight Combat Technique was either condensed by a knight's lifelong efforts, spending countless experiences and energy and then realizing it. The nobles regard it as inheritance and glory. Only those declining nobles, especially Wandering Nobles, will have no choice but to sell their family's Knight Combat Technique.

It is difficult to say whether you can find an excellent Knight Combat Technique here. After all, if a family is really strong, even if it declines, it will be difficult to fall to the point where it needs to sell the inheritance of its ancestors to survive.

In comparison...

The world of Gam and Fenrir.

This world is special. The world covered by wind and snow does not seem to have completely entered the Northlands Eternal Winter Dead Silence state. It is just that Magic Factor is no longer active. In addition, Ryan has not yet found the difference between the real Northlands and the ordinary ice and snow world Boundary Line.

It seems that this world is like what two civilized people said, and there is no Northlands as understood by Ryan.

At the same time, some news that he had known before also attracted his attention at this time.

"You said that powerful fighters often look for suitable weapons among the ruins of ancient ruins in the north?"

Whether they are the people of Gam or Fenrir, they are all enthusiasts of killing and death. As for production, it is difficult for the people of Gam to have room for development.

Therefore, powerful fighters will go to the ruins of the former battlefield to find weapons suitable for them.

"Where are those ruins?"

Ryan got the answer. The ruins should not be as rich as imagined, but it is possible to find what he wants.

Every world has its own inherited wealth, but currently here, Ryan has not found any special inheritance except for cruel battles and death.

Whether they are the people of Gam or Fenrir, the stories they pass down orally are interesting, but if there is any knowledge passed down, do hunting and trapping skills count?

Most people here hunt to satisfy their appetites and improve their honor.

Ryan thinks it is unreasonable. Since it is not a primitive and barbaric tribe, but a civilization, there must be knowledge inheritance.

He led hundreds of Knight Retainer towards the north. Although Northlands did not arrive, Ryan felt the colder the weather around him as he went further the North.

Following the guidance of the people of Gam, Ryan saw a ruins buried by wind and snow twelve hours later in the night. On the ground in front of him, he could vaguely see dense metal weapons inserted into the ground. They were damaged. These weapons formed a huge battlefield, which seemed to tell the cruelty of the war decades ago.

When it dawned the next day, the Knight Retainers dismounted and walked through the ruins. They pulled out a large number of skeletons from under the snow. Just like the legend of Gam, many of them were not human at all. They were believers of gods or spirits in the war. They started a war in this world, and they all died here in the end.

Weapons and armors have all been dug out. The huge ruins are already ruins and a garbage dump. Looking for useful resources here seems... a waste of time.

Without a weapon that is intact and usable, even if they are sent to a blast furnace for re-refining, they may not get many metal ingots.

"This place has been dug up for decades, and we can't find any good things. The war relics further north may preserve complete wealth."

Ryan continues to advance with the soldiers. The people of Gam live around the two cities. They will also come to the ruins to look for weapons and equipment, but if they go further, the people of Gam will hesitate.

Even for fighters who have gained the power of beasts, their survivability is only slightly higher than that of ordinary people. In places where they cannot return to the city for several days, ferocious beasts will die easily, and humanoid beasts like them are no exception.

Ryan doesn't have too many worries, because he has hundreds of Knight Retainer around him, and he can open Planar Gate and return to Frozen Earth Territory at any time.

There was enough food, plenty of warmth, and plenty of escape routes. Ryan certainly didn't need to be afraid. This was why he personally led people to explore. After all, only he could open Planar Gate.

The most important thing is that this world Magic Factor is just a pool of stagnant water, inactive at all. How powerful a beast can be compared to Golden Knight, Dragons cubs and hundreds of fully armed people, the weakest of whom are all Formal Knight's attendants?

After walking for another two days, Ryan discovered the second ruins recorded by the people of Gam. This place was much fresher than the previous one. Basically, only the bravest fighters would arrive here.

Here, the attendants did find a lot of weapons and armor that were still usable, but the skeletons were a bit surprising.

"Is this the battlefield between humans and centaurs?"

Centaurs in the otherworldly world are different from what Ryan learned. They have human-like upper bodies and horse-like lower bodies.

However, they are just similar. They have thick arms like Orcs, and ferocious heads and triangular eyes like underwater hammerhead sharks. Their wars are extremely violent.

The centaur recorded on the Norris Continent was more than a hundred years ago. Ryan did not expect to see centaur bones here.

At the same time, he was a little regretful that nothing valuable was found here. Ordinary metal weapons and armors, ordinary corpses, and the battlefield covered by the wind and snow were like wars recorded in a few words in history. They lay here in obscurity, and it was difficult for future generations to find anything useful in them.

Ryan continued to move forward. The surrounding environment told him that neither the people of Gam nor the people of Fenrir could come to such a place. There were no footprints of wild beasts on the pure white earth, and the flat world was endlessly white. Even the people of Gam did not know where there were ancient battlefield ruins to the north.

In the vast world, how can we find it? Ryan stopped and sent his attendants in all directions.

Deities took shelter and hundreds of scouts went out. In the end, only one person brought back the news. Ryan led the army to the destination. After pushing aside the snow on the ground, under the smooth ice, the terrifying appearance of the ghouls frozen in ice was clearly exposed in front of Ryan for decades.

"The original war broke out on the edge of the river. The dead bodies sank into the river and were preserved after being frozen."

This is also the ruins of an ancient battlefield, but compared to the previous two places, it is more difficult to develop here. The hard ice surface may make Armored Bear come over and they are not interested in trying to open the cover to see if there are any active fish under the ice.

"Mark it and then we can go back."

Big rocks were piled up, and sharp weapons were used to draw the mark Frozen Earth Territory on them. The land here is an endless plain, and you can see it from a long distance away.

Going back was not as troublesome as when we arrived. Ryan directly opened Planar Gate and took people back to Frozen Earth Territory.

He tried to open the portal again, and then looked as if it was indeed the case.

He returned to a place with more human settlements, instead of the previous Snow Plains with glaciers.

"God and spirit, maybe God does not care about life, but spirit is more concerned about the gathering of human souls."

Planar Gate uses Ryan as the anchor point, but when Ryan is away, Planar Gate will be anchored according to a place in the world with more abundant spirituality.
