Ger didn't know what art was, but seeing the magnificent architecture of the Vatican and the murals and reliefs between the corridors of the buildings, he knew that these things were beautiful. The standard of beauty is generally recognized to be a subjective concept, because it varies from person to person and is influenced by culture, society, personal beliefs and values. However, in general, people generally believe that beauty is a combination of attractiveness, harmony, balance, elegance, naturalness and flawlessness. Here is a more detailed explanation:
1. Attractiveness: The first element of beauty is attractiveness. A person or thing must be able to attract the attention and interest of others to be considered beautiful. Attractiveness can be reflected by a person's smile, posture, eyes, voice, appearance and other factors.
2. Harmony: The second criterion of beauty is harmony. The various parts of a person or thing must be in harmony with each other to be considered beautiful. This may involve the matching of colors, the design of shapes, the choice of textures, etc.
3. Balance: The third criterion of beauty is balance. To be considered beautiful, the various parts of a person or thing must be balanced in weight, proportion, distribution, etc. This balance can be reflected in the proportions of a person's body and the design of an object.
4. Elegance: Elegance is also a standard of beauty. Elegance is a temperament that can be reflected in a person's manners, behavior, speech, etc. Elegance usually requires the accumulation of time and experience, rather than being achieved overnight.
5. Natural: The element of nature is also one of the standards of beauty. Natural beauty can be reflected in a person's physical features such as skin, hair, eyes, etc., or it can be reflected in nature, such as landscapes, buildings, etc.
6. Flawlessness: Finally, flawlessness is also an important standard of beauty. A person’s appearance should not have noticeable flaws or blemishes that would detract from his or her beauty.
These standards are not absolute, they are just some elements of beauty that are generally recognized. In fact, beauty is a very subjective concept, and everyone has their own aesthetics and standards. In addition, people's aesthetics may change with time and changes in environment. Therefore, the standard of beauty is not immutable.
Ger is a poor kid. Even if he gets the power and is shaking now, he is just a "nouveau riche". As for art, he can't say how good it is, but beautiful is beautiful, and many things are connected throughout the universe.
So Gel couldn't say what these works of art meant or how much artistic value they had, but he knew that they were all very beautiful.
However, Gel understood one thing better...that is, these things require countless resources!
Gel thought of the altar of their tribe, which had always been the best maintained place in the entire tribe. Although the altar was still extremely simple compared to the church in the Vatican, compared with the productivity of the two, their tribe also gave everything they had.
Even if people starve to death, there can be no problems with the sacrifice.
One can imagine how many people lost everything when the Vatican was built!
These people are using the name of gods to collect money everywhere. This thing... is only slightly better than gods!
Thinking of this, Gel's attitude towards the Vatican suddenly changed from shock, to admiration, to disgust.
But overall, Gel still likes the Earth very much.
Therefore, this little disgust was not enough to make Gel want to kill the Vatican.
But at this moment, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a slight change in the surroundings.
The position where he was standing did not change, the position of the light did not change, and the crowd of visitors around him did not change.
But he felt isolated from the whole world.
Soon, Geer found out that this was not a misunderstanding, he was indeed "isolated" because he just found out that a person passed through his body from behind and walked straight past him.
Gel wanted to catch the guy immediately, thinking he was an enemy, but his hand also passed through the man's body, and at the same time, he found that other people seemed to be unable to see him.
This feels weird.
It’s like I’ve become a ghost!
Well, there are legends of ghosts in their world as well.
Kogel could clearly feel that he was still alive.
So... he quickly realized where the problem lay.
A bald man in a yellow robe was standing not far from him, looking at him with a smile.
Gel transformed without any hesitation.
A stream of dark and sticky liquid gushed out of his body, a bit like oil... although Gel didn't know what oil was.
But after the liquid flowed out, the transformation that Gol had imposed on himself was cancelled, and he returned to his original appearance: pale skin, a face without a nose (a bit like Voldemort), two whiskers on his head, and no hair (their clan originally had no hair).
It looked extremely weird, and then the black slime formed a hooded windbreaker.
"Are you the god of this world?"
Gel thought that the hidden gods of this world had finally appeared... He did not launch an attack immediately, in fact, he just wanted to have a chat with the gods of this world, because he thought that the gods of this world... were too generous.
He or she... Gel can now distinguish the gender of most people on Earth, but he is not sure about the one in front of him.
This god was truly too generous. At least he had never seen any god who would be so open-minded in treating the mortals under his rule.
"God?" Gu Yi raised his eyebrows.
Well, it was Ancient One who came. Under the rule of the Great Guardian, except for some powerful beings who are extremely good at hiding, any powerful being who comes to Earth will be sensed.
This is also one of the responsibilities of Kamar-Taj, to prevent overly powerful individuals from invading the earth.
So Ancient One came here.
In fact, they discovered Ger a long time ago, but seeing that Ger didn't seem to have any evil intentions, Gu Yi planned to wait and see before deciding how to treat this outsider. After all, not all outsiders have malicious intentions.
However, many of Ger's actions puzzled Kamar-Taj. Why did this guy care so much about religion and look for information about religion and gods everywhere?
Finally, Ancient One decided to just show up and talk to this outsider.
"We don't have gods here. They were driven out of this world a long time ago." Gu Yi said directly without hiding anything: "I am not a god, just a wizard with magic spells."
"Mage?" Gel could understand this term, just like the shaman in their previous tribe... But Gel knew that was all a lie. The gods would not allow a mortal to possess extraordinary powers unless that mortal was of their bloodline.
"Yes. Please don't be nervous, outsider. I have no ill intentions. At least, we don't intend to do anything to you before you do anything destructive. I just saw you, so I came to ask you why you came. There are very few outsiders here. After all, the position of the earth in the universe is still very remote."
Gel didn't directly state his purpose, he was not stupid.
"I... came to Earth to look for something. I have no subjective ill will towards Earth. I even like it here."
Ger didn't lie.
He does not have any subjective ill will towards the earth.
He just came to find the heart of the ancient god.
"Can you tell me about the gods being driven out of the earth?"
Gu Yi was a little surprised: "Outsider, why don't you introduce yourself first? This is basic courtesy."
Gel was a little embarrassed. He indeed had not done enough in this regard. After all, he was just an ordinary person before, and there was no need for etiquette in the tribe. If kneeling every time he saw a priest was considered etiquette...to be honest, he only learned the word etiquette from the gods after he obtained the Black Death Sword.
"Sorry... My name is Gel, and I come from... I don't even know what the world I was born in is called. It is a world ruled by gods. Those gods are extremely cruel. My family all died because of them, so I rose up to resist, but was hunted down by many other gods. Then I came here. So I like Earth very much, because there are no gods here... If you are not lying to me. So I am very interested in how the gods were driven out of this planet by you... This kind of thing is definitely the greatest blasphemy on the planet where I was born. Without gods, there would be no us. Without the guidance of gods, we will surely perish... I have always been educated like this. But..."
In fact, Gel didn't want to say so much, but for some reason, when he saw the bald man in front of him, he actually felt a rare calmness, as if the person standing in front of him was his mother, elder, a wise elder. His vigilance was lifted, and he had an indescribable desire to talk, which made him speak out unconsciously.
Now that I have said it, I don’t mind saying more.
"But... those gods are too much. They treat us as ants and don't care about our lives at all. They even deliberately bring disasters to us. They are gods, and we have been supporting them all the time! Things shouldn't be like this. This is completely different from what they taught me. We believe in gods, and they protect us, but... why?"
Ancient One looked very sad... Ancient One could not see through other people's thoughts. Even if she was a self-respecting wizard, she could not see through a person's thoughts. She had not found such a spell yet. But Ancient One lived a long time!
It’s been so long that Gu Yi doesn’t want to live anymore.
You know, living a long life is not a good thing. Especially for someone like her who carries a huge responsibility, to be honest, Gu Yi is already very tired.
She had wanted to die a long time ago.
At the same time, the longer she lives, the more she experiences and sees, so much that she doesn't need any special abilities to see through a person.
She could see that Ger was filled with sadness and anger as he said these words.
This is why she felt pity for the other person.
What makes a person saddest is not external things, but the fact that everything he insists on in his heart is broken!
This thing is more sad than physical pain.
"I think I know where you come from." Ancient One said calmly, "Pantheon...right?"
Gel immediately became alert.
Ke Gu waved his hand and said, "Relax, I am not in the same group with them, and to be honest, I hate them too. At the same time, this is also the reason why they were driven away."
Gel heard something: "They... are from Earth..."
"Yes, they were driven away from the Earth a long, long time ago. They were originally born on this planet. Perhaps those great people saw through this and were determined to drive them away."
When Gel heard this, he felt a surge of emotions in his heart that he didn't know how to express.
I am happy, a little, because those so-called gods are actually just stray dogs.
There is resentment, a little bit, because these guys were actually driven away from the earth. In other words, after they were driven away, they started to harm us?
He was a little confused, because he knew that this could not be blamed on the people on Earth, but he didn't know who to blame.
"So... can you tell me what's going on?" Gel felt a little discomfort in his throat.
Gu Yi did not refuse, but walked to a mural where there was a bench. Gu Yi sat down first, then patted the seat beside him and said, "Come, sit down and tell me. This is a very long story."
……
The story is very long.
Geer listened carefully, and only now did he ask: "So those... immortals, forgive me, this word is difficult to read. Immortals, saw the weakness of the gods, so they drove them away and returned this world to mortals?"
"You could say that. Compared to us humans, they are simply too powerful. And their power is innate, so they will become absolute power. Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption. In every era, freedom and common sense face four major challenges: the strong's desire for concentrated power, the poor's resentment of wealth inequality, the ignorant's yearning for utopia, and the non-believers confusing freedom with indulgence. The immortals are all wise men. They can see the disasters that the gods will bring to the earth, so they choose to expel them so that they can never return to the earth."
Gu Yi continued to speak leisurely.
Kogel didn't understand: "Why not kill them? Wouldn't that solve all the problems?"
If the immortals were really as powerful as Gu Yi said, why didn't they kill all the gods? Then all the things that happened later wouldn't have happened! Then his... Anyway, he was very angry.
Ancient One looked at Gel: "Because the immortals are wise. Have you ever seen a wise man punishing others for mistakes they didn't make? The immortals saw the weaknesses of the gods, but they didn't make the mistakes they made now. The immortals are not omniscient and omnipotent, and they can't see what will happen ten thousand years later. So at that time, the gods didn't make any mistakes. For them, driving the gods out of the earth was already a very serious matter, especially under the premise that they didn't make any mistakes. They just had to do this for the mortals to be able to develop freely. In the end, it's still the immortals who are sorry for the gods. How could they kill them? Isn't that a mistake on top of a mistake?"
