Chapter 500 The Reformation

It was only dawn on the second day, and the temporary camp was full of noisy human voices. People who have traveled for a long time know that the time they can travel in a day is limited. It seems that starting early in the morning has become a general rule in most cases, and While most of the people were packing up and getting ready, someone ran over to bid me farewell.

"Stay here to help rebuild the village? OK."

I answered so frankly that Sol was surprised.

In fact, there is nothing to guess. Sol’s stay is definitely not just to rebuild a village. Now that he has decided to scatter the seeds of the law, the seeds that are randomly scattered on the field are easy to wither accidentally. Taking care of a period of time is a matter of course.

Moreover, with the care of this silver professional, those villagers will have the courage to return home. After all, bandits are not the only threat in this world, and wild beasts and monsters in the wild are just as deadly.

In the attack of the Quick Knife Regiment, all the militiamen who could only deal with wild wolves were killed in an instant. Afterwards, due to the small number of bandit regiments, all the middle-aged men who might pose a threat were killed, leaving only those who could serve as soldiers. If there were only these villagers, such as the old people who bought and sold sacrifices, and the more valuable children and women, rebuilding the village itself would be a difficult problem, not to mention the possible dangers.

On the other hand, if they don't have enough security guarantees, they can only become homeless and go to bigger towns to beg for a living. If they have two skills and can support themselves, they may become beggars or prostitutes. of.

And if they rebuild their homes, the fields are still there, maybe this year's crops are still waiting for a bumper harvest, plus the belongings of the Quick Knife Group as compensation, at least they can live comfortably at home, if they can live well at home. Who wants to leave home.

"Your two companions? Did they go with you?"

"No, I discussed it with them, and they decided to go to the ruins to see. Their strength should be needed there."

I nodded, as expected. Then handed him a note.

"Take a few people on the road. It takes a lot of work to rebuild something. The mercenaries are good at doing this. After they finish the rebuilding work, they will be hired to guard the town for a while. One person cannot be busy."

"Baten bet seventeen gold coins? Is this a gambling debt?"

Yes, this note is a record of some gambling debts. I fished in my arms for a long time with some heartache before throwing him a small bag of gold coins.

"Yes. It's the betting money and the commission. This is the reward I promised them. These guys are all selected by me. They are veterans who can be trusted. Don't worry about using them."

When the little goblin was about to leave with a grateful face, I continued.

"It's a pity, Dimiret, the Miracle Hand, is probably the most knowledgeable engineer in the world. It is said that he has already blazed a new path in goblin engineering..."

For a goblin engineer, the opportunity to meet a great engineer is undoubtedly precious, just like a student of an academy of fine arts can meet a great artist. It was not only a meeting of idol stars, but also an opportunity to make great progress in communication.

And Dimiret is not an ordinary great engineer, but a genius engineer who plays a vital core role in the magic technology revolution. He has become the wisest person in the minds of countless goblins and dwarves, if he misses the opportunity to meet and communicate...

Well, seeing that the face that was full of gratitude just now turned into embarrassment in an instant, and felt that the goblin's anger just now turned into depression and helplessness, I smiled proudly.

"Hmph, since I was asked to pay, how could I happily let you go?"

"...You are really awkward, the money is out, can't you be a good person happily?"

"Cut. I was a good person."

"Well, well. Good man, a good man over three hundred years old. Maybe you will be a good man for the rest of your life."

"What a vicious curse, I also wish you a good cat forever!"

The dead cat shook his head, as if he had lost interest in the quarrels of elementary school students.

"However, this kid is also lucky. With your letter of introduction to Xuehoe, the future road can be regarded as a high rise all the way?"

"Oh, then you are the group of bastards who don't understand the Fourth Department of Justice. In their eyes, 'a good seed that is valued' is equal to a 'novice who needs to be honed repeatedly'. The one I personally introduced is probably equal to "100% wearable". Want to get promoted? Let's fight to the death first."

Although Saul's previous performance was a bit helpless, at least last night's performance was quite satisfactory to me, so I planned to send a letter of introduction to the current Supreme Bishop of the Law Church, Snow Hoof.

"It is no longer called the supreme bishop. Last month's news, it was changed to the supreme judge. All priests and priests in the law department are called by the profession of the judicial department."

Heloise's words caught my attention.

"Restore the first-level judges, second-level judges and other judges' hierarchy in the Sulfur Mountain City period? Isn't this a clear departure from the old true god religious church system? What is the response of other true god churches to this drastic religious reform?"

It seems that this is just a change of title, but if you think about it carefully, it marks that the legal profession will replace the religious priesthood of the Church of the Law with its status in the judicial system.

This also indicates that what the legal side truly believes in is the law itself rather than the God of the law. It may seem like a trivial matter, but it is of great significance. It is almost equivalent to declaring war on the traditional theocratic church, and the foreseeable resistance is even greater.

"...No response. Not a single clergyman above bishop level commented."

It was obviously a happy success, but the emotions conveyed by Heloise were full of worries, as if this was the worst news.

"No response? How is it possible? Oh...they plan to settle accounts after the fall!"

At this time, if you express an opinion that is neither serious nor serious, it is tantamount to acquiescing to the religious reform of the Church of the Law, and such a reform has touched the foundation of the Church of True God. Pan-conceptual belief and Personality God belief are natural enemies, unless the Personality God Intention and concept become one, or sooner or later there will be a reckoning.

Of course, it can also be regarded as a special case and ignored, and this is almost squatting a materialist among a group of religious people, and it is simply a lever to arouse hatred and dissatisfaction.

"The God of the Law and his church don't collect offerings and donations. Why can you collect them? Also. They say that criminals will go to purgatory, and you say that as long as you pay enough donations, you can enter heaven. Who said that? That's right? They are also God's shepherds with divine magic and divine power. But they can support themselves, why do you only need to pray to be able to live comfortably. Why..."

I'm afraid that at that time, even the Pope of the Church of the Holy Church will not be able to answer these questions.

Then, for those priests of the Church of True God, the best way to deal with it is probably to temporarily pretend not to see those "heretics", and then turn around and liquidate them afterwards.

"Snowhoof is still in a hurry. At this time, it is too early, and it will cause the hostility of other neutral true gods..."

The words with some complaints stopped in the middle, and the tauren who had many bad habits was chosen as the boss of the Church of the Law because he was very stable, he was not an impatient person, and even if he really Can't stop, and Lilith and Kane will stop them.

"How long has it been since you read magazine news about religion? Well, I know you hate those things the most, so let me tell you."

Those magazines that swindle money by following the general trend. Half of the above are various religious slogans and preaching, and some bastards even engraved weak hypnotic patterns on it to guide readers to believe in religion. Don't expect me to pay a copper coin for such a mental pollutant! Well, it's just not worth it, definitely not me being stingy!

"...The following words have lost all momentum, and the truth has been exposed along the way."

Heloise really likes to subscribe to those messy missionary magazines, especially the ones of the elven gods... Well, this dead cat doesn't seem to be fundamentally different from the past, and it always says I'm stingy and grudge.

"Since two years ago, many Churches of True God have complained that legal professionals have embezzled and invaded their dioceses. This has resulted in at least two hundred disputes, and the number of complaints last year exceeded three times this number. This year..."

"How much is this year?"

Listening to such words, I can almost understand.

"I haven't played this year. There are more than 8,000 complaints, and there are more than 90 churches and more than 240 countries. Do you want me to summarize them one by one with you?"

"I x. Isn't nearly half of the world against it? A global public enemy?"

Now, I understand why the pastors and paladins of those churches came all the way from the capital of the Principality of Sasha when the members of the Law Church came to Anton Town. The jihad is still going on, and I'm afraid the fun is already over.

"It's just, it's just... it's really good!"

The depressed mood is swept away? Protests by other countries and churches? Let them protest. Anyway, the "civil war" cannot be fought before the end of the jihad, and a few words of scolding will inevitably lead to a few pieces of meat.

Originally, I was worried that it would attract too much hostility when it spread, but now there is hostility on this scale. On the contrary, it shows that the teaching of the law has spread far enough, and I am used to being hostile.

"In many places, the spread of the law has been called the 'law plague'."

Hearing this, I couldn't help laughing. Indeed, in a sense, the spread of legal teachings does feel a bit like natural disasters and plagues.

Take the villagers of Lanti Village in front of us as an example. If Suoer successfully sowed the seeds of the law here, in less than two years, there will probably be dozens of low-level legal professionals, and one of the law The profession has moved to another village, maybe hundreds of legal professions will be born, and spread again... This is really a bit of a plague, and a bit like a cult.

"It was originally planned to take at least 30 years to spread to the whole world, but it was done in seven years? This is more like a cult than a cult."

In the final analysis, the reason why the legal profession can spread so quickly is because of its own characteristics.

In a world where the weak prey on the strong, a thing that can give power to mortals will naturally spread extremely fast. But they are often able to respond to requests, and improve quickly and more. In this world, real power is more convincing than any empty teachings.

In a sense, the teachings of the law are more extreme than cults. After all, believing in cults such as devils and demons, even if they give you strength and realize your wishes, will inevitably deprive you of something more valuable. The teachings of the Dharma can also give power, but they will not charge any price.

He does not set up a church, does not need to pray to the true God, does not need expensive religious ceremonies, but only needs to believe in the justice and protection of the law... Don't talk about those lofty empty words, which greatly saves the cost of practice and reduces the cost of cultivation. The difficulty of preaching, a pamphlet is much more difficult to guard against than any evil ritual.

He specializes in protection and punishment, and is not aggressive. Those local lords are happy to see the birth of law professionals who specialize in protection in their territories, or they cannot be used for invasion, but they can protect towns and expel wild beasts and invaders. Moreover, these strong men who obey the law will not threaten the dominance of the lord (for the time being). On a deeper level, this can also attack the local traditional theocracy and expand the power of the lord. In a sense, This is another contest between kingship and theocracy. If there were no lords behind the scenes to fuel the flames and introduce each other, I am afraid that the teachings of the law would not have spread so quickly.

The most important thing is that his entry threshold is extremely low, and he grows rapidly, allowing those mortals who desire to control their own destiny to take the initiative to learn.

Of course, there are naturally many people who pretend to believe in the law for the sake of power, but without piety and understanding of the law, one cannot master magic spells, and even if he masters magic spells, he will expand himself after gaining power. Selfish desire to do something...

"The law of God, the seventh crime of the thirteen crimes, those who abuse the law and neglect their duties with selfish desires will be stripped of all their duties and demoted to ordinary people!"

The vain words of the past have turned into a real reality, and the sleepless one is watching you forever is really not empty words. Once you lose the power of the law, you will never be able to get it again for life.

And all of this stems from the insomniac who has stepped into the rank of the main god and the underworld purgatory that has become the headquarters of the underworld side.

The divine power is strong enough to be able to squander the general summoning miracle. The miracle last night made dozens of people choose the way of the law and gave them the seeds of the law, but more faith gave more divine power.

As I said before, for the true God, jihad is both a test and an opportunity, and the God of Law seems to have seized this opportunity.

Perhaps, the holy light grew in such an inflated way back then, and finally got completely out of control, but now the god of law has been tightly bound by the rules, and is destined to become a cog in the underworld.

"Since it has reached this point, I'd better add another fire."

So, I spread out my letter paper and started to conceive a letter to Snowhoof and Lilith. (to be continued)
