My Players Are So Fierce – Handsome dog Frank-Chapter 2143 - 715: A Cool Possibility Forever Lost in the Mother Earth’s Divine Life, What a Pity (2)
This is a very risky thing for those naturally great deities.
Because faith is a two-way street.
Believers gain power and blessings because of their worship of the gods, allowing themselves to become better beings according to the teachings of the scriptures; the gods are also changed by the accumulation of mortal faith. When all believers desire their god to uphold justice, even an evil god like the Master of Hunting will be forcibly pushed towards the realm of good gods.
Therefore, the fact that Mother Gaia accepts our faith itself suffices to demonstrate the benevolence of the Mother Goddess and her care for us.
She willingly allows herself to be bound by faith to better guide us, which also grants the Mother some characteristics of a God of Faith along with their weaknesses!
So, faith can not only be used to connect believers and gods, but in extreme cases, it can also be used to harm gods."
Ovg sighed, drank a cup of wine, and said softly:
"The Brass Dwarves were once as sincere as we Silver Dwarves. We are the priests of the Mother Goddess, proclaiming the majesty of the Mother Goddess on earth, while they were the guardians of the Mother Earth, protecting her shrines and places of faith in the world.
The Frost Dwarfs are the hunters of the Mother Goddess, punishing in the world all evildoers who disrespect the Mother. This is not only due to our different skin colors and powers resulting in different duties, but also a blessing from the Mother Goddess, wishing to see the dwarves thrive and develop.
Everything was progressing according to Mother Gaia’s expectations until the Brass Dwarves, with the assistance of the Half-body Man, discovered the secrets of the Burning Gold.
That thing...
Although it is buried underground, it is not a creation of the Mother Goddess. When the Brass Dwarves began to collect Burning Gold on a large scale for the first time, the Mother Goddess issued a warning.
That is the fruit shaped by dangerous power.
Indeed, the Burning Gold itself is harmless. Although it comes from the subspace, its gathering in the material world cleanses it of chaotic and evil essence, turning it into an efficient and incredible energy amalgam.
However, the magical nature of Burning Gold causes it to produce some very bizarre phenomena when piled up in large quantities.
It amplifies emotions and desires, just as it can perfectly accelerate all energy processes.
The principle is even the same."
Lord Ofg finally revealed to the outsiders the greatest hidden danger of Burning Gold.
This was once the greatest secret of the Brass Dwarves, but now that they have been expelled by Gaia from the ranks of "Righteous Dwarves," as the High Priest of Gaia, Ovg was finally able to share these dangerous matters without pressure.
He said:
"To this day, we do not know the purpose and origin of the shadow of subspace causing the birth of Burning Gold in the material world, but it is certain that by the time we discovered this unsettling characteristic of Burning Gold, the Brass Dwarves had already come too far down this path.
They grew strong quickly with the help of Burning Gold, even establishing the Invincible Brass Fortress, completely ending the threat of the Black Disaster.
Their friends, the Half-body Man, also gained protection as a result and began to more actively assist the Brass Dwarves in utilizing the power of the Burning Gold. The two races combined forces to monopolize the trade of Burning Gold, earning wealth enough to buy half the Continent.
However, while they were recklessly using the Burning Gold, those marvelous wonders were also affecting them.
The Brass Dwarves began to indulge more and more, becoming increasingly resistant to Gaia’s doctrines. Their crime rate started soaring, and the number of exiled Sinful Dwarfs kept increasing. What’s amusing is that the amplified desire from Burning Gold ironically increased the population of Brass Dwarves.
Instead of declining due to this indulgence, they grew even stronger.
I have tried countless times to persuade Hadlan, but he is a Supreme Lord with his own ideas. Alas, their situation cannot actually be called contamination, Lord Morphy.
The Brass Dwarves never truly switched their faith; they were just made so unable to return to their original simple lives by the continuous release of desires. The more the dwarves interacted with Burning Gold, the more obvious this tendency became.
In contrast, those lower-class dwarves who barely came into contact with Burning Gold could manage to barely maintain their faith. Let me put it this way: perhaps this mass depravity was initially triggered by Burning Gold, but the escalating intensity thereafter has little to do with Burning Gold.
The true force pushing the Brass Dwarves further and further..."
"Is wealth, money, greed."
Morphy provided the answer for Lord Ovg, who nodded silently, drank the third cup of wine for the day, and said:
"It’s a key that opened the desires in the heart, spiraling out of control since.
The once simple joy can no longer satisfy the void in the heart, so they can only escalate it.
You haven’t been to the Brass Fortress, so you might not be aware of the casinos hidden in the shadows of the Dwarf Trade Zone, the decadent wine, and the slaves of various races that have been quietly bought back.
You might not know that one of the biggest buyers of Shadow Elf slave traders is the mineral company of the Brass Fortress.
This phenomenon has persisted for a long time.
Honestly, I had anticipated the outcome of Gaia ultimately abandoning the Brass Dwarves for a long time. It wasn’t that the Mother was heartless, but she had to do this, otherwise, she would be influenced by the collective hedonism and consumerism of the Brass Dwarves, causing the Mother Goddess herself to undergo a transformation of character.
For gods, losing oneself is a terrifying thing."
"Uh, regarding this, I actually have a different opinion."
Morphy said softly:
