Chapter 1187 Shock

The Citizen is just a small newspaper published in the Longte area of ​​the Kingdom of America. Most of the people who subscribe to this newspaper are residents of Longte Town. Most of them learned about the situation in the Kingdom of America and surrounding countries through the newspaper. Especially the detailed information on the group of mutated monsters.

Compared with other towns, Lante Town is obviously much safer in terms of security, because it was originally a strategic location. At that time, both sides of the warring colonies built castles and forts here. Now these castles and fortresses have been restored It was used by the locals, and when the monsters attacked, they hid in the castle fortress and saved their lives.

Old Bailey is a member of the town's defense force. His daily task is to lead his team to patrol back and forth along the road connecting several castles and fortresses. If necessary, he will also clean up some monsters on the edge of the road on behalf of the leader.

It's just that, because one side of the Lante area is Adoline, and the other side is Taroya, an important border town in Panier, and there are cities with large populations on both sides, so most of the mutant monsters nearby will be attracted by people from these two places On the contrary, the Langte area in the middle is very peaceful, even if you walk on the road, you will not encounter too scary monsters.

The daily patrol mission of the Old Bailey's patrol team is more like a routine, because the road is too boring, so the Old Bailey will choose a literate, loud voice from among his men to sit in the patrol carriage, Read newspapers for everyone.

For a long time, most of the content in the citizen newspaper was gossip, such as who the wife of a certain nobleman had an affair with, etc. All in all, the content was just fun to listen to.

However, today, the Old Bailey also took a copy of the latest Citizen newspaper and gave it to the selected newspaper readers to read.

However, people didn't expect that after getting the newspaper, the subordinate who beat him immediately sat there, his eyes fixed on the content of the newspaper, motionless, as if something shocking to the world was recorded on it.

"What's the matter? What happened?" Old Bailey couldn't read, but he could understand the expressions of his subordinates. He felt a little bit of despair in his heart, and immediately asked, "Did the city of Aodorine be breached?" gone?"

"No, no!" The city defense army also woke up from the abbreviated content in the newspaper, and shook his head quickly.

"Thinking about it, it should be fine. If something really happened, I'm afraid this road is already full of refugees." Old Bailey let out a sigh of relief, and then slapped himself hard with some annoyance, cursing: "Since it's okay , Then why did you have that expression just now, as if your father is dead?"

"Head, my father died a long time ago." The City Defense Army rubbed the place where he was slapped and retorted, but when he saw that Old Bailey was about to slap himself again, he immediately diverted his attention and pointed to the eye-catching words on the newspaper. The headline said: "The news on this is much more serious than the death of my father. This is big news!"

The city defense army's words not only attracted Old Bailey, but also attracted the other city defense troops walking around. They simply stopped and leaned over to look at the newspaper.

The vast majority of these city defense troops are illiterate, but they can understand the pictures. Apart from the eye-catching headlines, there are three eye-catching pictures on the front page of the newspaper. These three pictures are extremely real and clear. Anyone who has seen it can clearly recognize that the content in the picture is that a group of people wearing shaman costumes are blocking a large number of huge mutated monsters, but the strange thing is that those monsters do not seem to attack them, and one of the pictures is even The monster turned and left, and the sight of the walls where the shamans were standing remained intact.

There is almost no need to read any text, but from the content displayed in the three pictures, it can be seen that there should be a group of monsters attacking somewhere, but there are a lot of shamans there, and those shamans seem to have mastered something Power can control those mutated monsters, not only prevent the mutated monsters from attacking the city, but also make those monsters retreat by themselves.

At this time, the city guard also read out loud the contents of the newspaper, and the contents were similar to what everyone had guessed after seeing the three pictures. Under the leadership of a scholar named Rustav, he has mastered an ability that can control mutant monsters, and even unlock the intelligence of mutant monsters, and Rustav has transformed the old capital of Panier into his laboratory, And the wisdom of some mutated monsters has been opened. At the end of the article, it is mentioned that this ability may lead mutated monsters to gain wisdom, and it will be more difficult for humans to survive in this world.

After listening to the reading, everyone was silent, because they all thought that if the above content was true, then it would definitely be a disaster for human beings.

Now human civilization is struggling to deal with those mutated monsters that only rely on instinct and do not have any intelligence. If mutated monsters can really have the same intelligence as humans, then how can humans survive in front of such monsters? Go on, and in the end, I am afraid that only the gods can save mankind by taking action in person.

"God! God will not save us stupid guys. My Lord will just quietly watch this world sink because of our stupidity. Don't forget that our Lord does not need us, but we need our Lord ” Just as the patrolling city guards in the border town panicked because of a report in the newspaper, in the main church of the Lord of the Sky Church in the capital of the United Kingdom, fifteen church members, including the Pope of the Sky, The highest-level clergymen gathered in the prayer hall, and now the person who yelled angrily was the Archbishop of the Tribunal, and what triggered his anger was a headline on the front page of a newspaper.

This front-page headline comes from the popular newspaper with the largest circulation in the Kingdom of America, and the content of the newspaper is the same as the content of the citizen newspaper in the Langte area, except that it is more detailed and has more and clearer pictures. And in the last few pages of the newspaper, many celebrities and dignitaries in America and California published their views on this matter in detail. Although some people think that it is a good thing to have a way to control mutant monsters, more people express their opinions on this matter. expressed strong concerns that Rustav and the shamans were playing with fire.

There is no doubt that all the senior leaders of the Lord of the Sky Church sitting in the Holy Prayer Hall now think that this matter is a dangerous matter, but most of them are not interested in mastering the control of mutant monsters and unlocking the wisdom of monsters. Rather than worrying about the capabilities themselves, they worry about who they belong to.

In the opinion of many of them, if this ability is truly mastered by Shamanism, then all the Churches of True God will be finished, and Shamanism may be able to control the entire world with this ability.

But on the other hand, if this ability is mastered by the Church of the Lord of the Sky, then the Church of the Lord of the Sky will definitely get rid of the situation of being on an equal footing with other Churches of True God. Become the only god of Velen.

So when discussing this matter just now, many people thought that Rustav and those shaman disciples should be captured alive at all costs, so as to obtain the ability to control mutant monsters, but the archbishop of the trial court is obviously theirs. The few sober people in the middle, he knew very well that this approach was playing with fire, which would definitely cause the Lord of the Sky to hate them, and would eventually return to the entire Church of the Lord of the Sky, so he didn't care about being among these people. With a slightly lower status, he slapped the table hard and scolded everyone unceremoniously.

The complexions of everyone in the room were gloomy, and even those who opposed the capture of Rustaf were unhappy. The reason why the Tribunal has a low status in the church is mainly because almost all the archbishop and subordinate members of the Tribunal have double They are not only the archbishops of the trial court of their respective churches, but also the presiding judges of the Orthodox Church, not only the Church of the Lord of the Sky, but also the Church of the Lady of the Lake and other Churches of True God, so they will not completely stand on the side of the church when thinking about issues. Thinking about issues from a different standpoint makes it difficult for the senior leaders of various churches to regard each other as their own.

Although they don't like being questioned by the Archbishop of the Tribunal so bluntly, everyone has no way to refute his words, because they also know that there is nothing wrong with those words. If they really try to expand the power of the church by controlling mutant monsters, then Their behavior is indistinguishable from blasphemy.

At this time, everyone's eyes were also shifted to the Pope who was on the throne. From the moment the meeting started, the Pope didn't say anything, and didn't seem to listen to their conversation. Instead, he closed his eyes tightly and fell into a He was in some kind of meditative death, and the god-given eye on his forehead was also flickering non-stop, as if he was communicating with the gods.

Although the crowd really wanted the Pope to make a decision at this time, they did not bother the Pope in a hurry, but waited quietly aside.

After a while, the Pope slowly opened his eyes, his eyes dim as if he had just woken up, and then he heard him say: "Those mutated monsters are heretics, and they are also the main targets of the church's future miracles. Controlling mutated monsters is naturally a heresy, and it must be completely banned.” Then, he turned his head to look at the archbishop of the trial court, and said: “Issuing an excommunication order to the Orthodox Court is related to the safety of the entire Velen world. Only our church family contributes."

"Excommunication order?" Everyone present was stunned, because the last excommunication order issued by the Orthodox Court was still aimed at the mother of the hives, and that excommunication order lasted for more than a hundred years. This order was carried out without compromise, and it was very popular for a while. The mother of all the mothers, who almost became one of the churches of the true gods, was also completely silent under the blow of this excommunication order, and has not yet recovered.

However, now the Pope proposes to issue an excommunication order to a small group of less than 50 people in a sect affiliated with Shamanism.

One of the bishops who specializes in foreign affairs said cautiously: "Your Majesty, if we issue an excommunication order to the Ancient Spirit Pilgrims, will we start a full-scale war with the shamanism because of this..."

"Don't worry." The Pope shook his head and said very firmly, "They will make the same decision as us."

"Is this your decision?" Just after the Church of the Lord of the Sky had made a decision on Rustav, the Shamanism's headquarters in Megalica also convened a meeting of the same high-level Shamanism, and quickly made a decision in the discussion. Some decisions were made, but this decision made some high-level factions angry, because this decision was to destroy the method of controlling mutant monsters and unlocking the wisdom of mutant monsters as taboo knowledge, and Rustav and those shaman apprentices also sent They return to nature.

Obviously, this decision is completely a betrayal in the eyes of some people, especially when Rustav has already made results, and this result can change the current situation of Shamanism, these colleagues of Shamanism will not give Forget about helping, but now they are going to stab the knife in the back, which makes those small sects who are in the same state as the Guling Pilgrims feel extremely dissatisfied, and even bring themselves into the situation of the Guling Pilgrimage, thinking that one day they will The sect they belong to may also be eliminated by other shaman sects for some reason.

Facing Ultramarine motivating everyone, the big shaman who presided over the meeting didn't say anything, just sat quietly, as if waiting for everyone to finish speaking, while the high-level shamans of other big factions also said nothing , just sat there, watching everyone.

After a while, the voice in the room gradually weakened, and everyone felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. No matter how angry people were, they swallowed the words that came to their lips at this time, and then looked at the head of the big shaman.

At this time, the great shaman said calmly: "This decision was made by the Holy Mountain. If you have any opinions, you can go to the Holy Mountain to express it. It is useless here. I can only send people according to the decision of the Holy Mountain." Get rid of this trouble."

"Why did Holy Mountain make such an absurd decision?" Some shamans were still unconvinced and asked.

The great shaman was silent for a while, and said: "It is the mother of plants, Rustav and the shaman apprentices of the Ancient Spirit Pilgrimage led by him have done something to desecrate the mother of plants."

Everyone around fell silent immediately. It would be fine if it was other wild gods and spirits of nature, but the object of the blasphemy turned out to be the mother of plants, which is regarded as the mother by almost all life in the wilderness. No matter how much you question Rustav No damn man can say anything to justify it.

Following that, a similar report was published in newspapers of various countries in the Mozambique continent, and the follow-up influence caused by this report was also like waves, pushing it from the extraordinary world to the secular world, and many of them could see this However, there are more people who covet this ability and hope to be able to grasp it in their hands. In any case, in the end, Paneer's old city has become a place where everyone is staring, and as the person involved, Russ Taft also seemed to have a premonition of danger at this moment, and was preparing to take his people out of here, looking for another place to continue his research.
