Chapter 969: Chapter 408: Miracle-Guiding Ritual

A revelation from God?

The few present looked at Wick with changed expressions, eyes filled with both anticipation and fear.

In the past decade, they had held many meetings and discussed numerous times how to evoke miracles, but each time, they deliberately or unintentionally avoided the word "God."

They both hope for God to favor this land once more, yet fear those hopes might be dashed, dreams shattered.

After all, in the Mikel Kingdom, it had been too long since God appeared.

Now Wick voluntarily brought up the word ’God,’ and even claimed he received a revelation from God, showing that Wick was serious this time.

But matters concerning God won’t be swayed by mortals just being earnest.

Wick understood what everyone was thinking inside, for most times over the years, he thought just like them.

"A few days ago, I returned to the Capital to bid a final farewell to my friends there. As former believers, we held one last prayer, and during the prayer, more than twenty of us, including myself, received a revelation from God."

"God told us He wants to return to this world, but due to dwindling faith, our belief cannot support the descent of His miracles."

"Therefore, He needs us to hold a ceremony for Him, and as long as the ceremony can take shape, He will bring about a miracle as great as the First Miracle, and might even arrange for a god to descend in person."

Han’er, who was drinking water, choked upon hearing Wick’s words and began to cough violently while supporting the table.

His face turned bright red from coughing, the cough resonating in the vast Divine Hall as if the entire building was trembling.

The elderly couldn’t help but glance over, fearing Han’er might keel over from not catching his breath.

The coughing lasted for two or three minutes before stopping, and while smoothing his chest to catch his breath, he apologized to Wick:

"Sorry, this news is too shocking, I’m a bit scared."

Wick shook his head and said, "It’s my fault, everyone is no longer young, I should have given you a buffer first."

"But things happened suddenly, I couldn’t wait, so I told you everything directly."

Han’er lowered his head, using his sleeve to wipe the water stains at the corner of his mouth, also covering the complex expressions on his face.

Before leaving, Wu Chang had just told him that extraordinary will not easily disappear, and the believers of God are all the Fire Seeds for the revival of the extraordinary, and as soon as he walked out the door, it turned out just like that.

While sorting his mood and adjusting his expression, Wick continued with his plan.

"The ceremony will be held in Sirena, but I am not the initiator. I bet you absolutely won’t guess who it is."

Wick’s words piqued everyone’s interest, prompting them to speculate about the ceremony initiator.

Located in the Capital, acquainted with Wick, and related to the belief in God.

Their guesses leaned towards the president of the Spirit Medicine Sect’s Royal City branch, the Extraordinary Alliance, or some former great nobles who held extraordinary power.

Faced with their guesses, Wick wore a mysterious smile, shaking his head in denial.

Seeing their inability to guess the result, he slowly said:

"The initiator is Thompson, the president of the Mathematics Association."

Hiss~

The few present simultaneously gasped in shock, as even if they guessed a hundred times, they wouldn’t have guessed that Thompson was the initiator.

"Why would the president of the Mathematics Association initiate a miracle ceremony?"

Unlike other faithless individuals, the Mathematics Association started doubting the existence of God thirty years ago, even before miracles ceased.

However, at that time, the Mathematics Association was insignificant in the Mikel Kingdom, with large churches engrossed in how to elicit miracles, having no time to bother with them.

When Erin shattered the First Miracle, due to the ceasing of miracles and people beginning to doubt miracles and God, the Mathematics Association, which had long questioned God’s existence, became people’s "new faith."

Riding the wave of doubt about miracles, the Mathematics Association quickly rose to become the top organization in the Mikel Kingdom, guiding the kingdom’s development direction.

Especially Thompson, the president of the Mathematics Association, who has extensive achievements in his research across multiple domains beyond mathematics.

Many inventions that astonished Han’er, which he believed advanced the development of the Mikel Kingdom, were from Thompson.

It could even be said, in Han’er’s opinion, that it was better for the Mikel Kingdom without the extraordinary, largely due to Thompson.

Compared to the others, Han’er felt a sense of absurdity in addition to being shocked when he heard the name.

The one who made him decide to guard the extraordinary’s tomb is now going to personally dig the extraordinary out of the coffin—how ironic.

Facing the shock of everyone, Wick said: "Actually, it’s easy to understand."

"In the journey of mathematics and various research, Thompson has traversed further than anyone else, and the higher one stands, the clearer they see their limits."

"With his deeper study into mathematics, the more problems challenged him, he discovered the rules he summarized would contradict themselves with new questions."

"He couldn’t believe contradictory rules could perfectly integrate, having tried countless methods to achieve self-consistent theories, leading him to believe in God’s existence, who uses His great power to forcefully meld these contradictory rules together."

After listening, everyone fell into silence, not thinking but simply unable to understand.

Unable to comprehend mathematics or understand what Wick was saying.
