Chapter 301 I Have a Real Conscience
Although they had no idea what the great achievements of the Lord of Trade were, and it was even the first time they had heard of His name, believers would naturally make up exaggerated deeds for God that no one knew about to praise Him, for fear that The gods you believe in are no better than other gods. ♦♦ ♦♦
"In praise of trade."

"The prophecy will come true... The moment our Lord appears, the earth will be covered with gold, and everyone will put aside their disputes and advocate peace and fairness."
"It is said that He holds a scale in his left hand and holds a long sword in his right hand. On one side of the scale is a golden plate with feathers. When the other end of the scale changes due to injustice, our Lord's sword will cut it without hesitation. To those who disobey justice.”
"His sword is invincible. It is the holy sword made of the most shining and pure gold in the world!"
"…Wait a minute, who are you talking about!?"
Riya listened to a group of people starting to talk uncontrollably, and immediately tried to find a way to suppress these people's beliefs and return them to normal.
He felt that if he did not restrain his faith, this group of people would reveal that it was actually the Lord of Trade who cut the glorious rising sun into a deep sleep with his sword and cut the entire continent into several continents.
"Faith is a scary thing...Listen, don't mention any trade-related information when you go back."
"As long as you silently recite His name during daily transactions, He will definitely protect you all."
Riya warned these people and then told them to go back wherever they should.
"But we have nowhere to go."
Someone lowered his head.
"Our house was destroyed by a natural disaster... Why should I continue to live? Where will we go when everything is gone?"
More people are feeling pessimistic. They cover their faces and cry bitterly, with tears and snot all over their hands. At this time, the advantages and disadvantages of human nature are fully demonstrated.
Riya could have ignored them, but he felt that it would be too miserable for these believers if he just left them alone.
He is a responsible person.
So he showed these people the clear way——
"You can go to the Church of the Rising Sun, tell them everything that happened to you, and apply for compensation. They have an accident protection system... Of course, the premise is that you all bought insurance."
Normally everyone pays such a high amount of taxes to the church, but now it is appropriate to ask it to perform some duties of protecting the people.
The implication is that he wants these people who have betrayed the faith of the Rising Sun to continue to go to the Rising Sun Church to eat and drink. If they are still kicked out, it will be because the church clergy embezzled taxes and did not serve the disadvantaged groups.
Next time, Riya will come to them personally to collect the debt.
Although in the end it was Riya who benefited, everyone still thought that he was an extremely responsible and kind-hearted man, and would be grateful to him for a long time.
night.
The sea surface became calm again, emitting a broken white light under the illumination of the crescent moon.
In such a quiet sea, a fishing boat floated precariously on the water, heading in an unknown direction.
In the cabin of the fishing boat, several people dressed in fishermen's clothing were gathering together and looking at a map with serious faces. The map was a drawing of a city, with the various colored squares in the upper left corner marking what kind of buildings they represented.
For example, blue is a residential building, white is a hospital, black is a water area, and green is a road. Then there are no normal roads at all on this drawing.
Black is interspersed among various buildings in the city, and white has become the mainstream of architecture. As for blue... the few are as pitiful as the hospitals in the city.
This also means that this place is full of hospitals. The hospitals are normal buildings, but the residential buildings have become hospitals.
There are no other types of buildings at all, and the city is completely dark outside, which also proves that it is an absolutely forbidden area completely surrounded by water.
"The unexpected large-scale tsunami in the Goti Sea means that the old days are about to revive?"
After a moment of silence, one of those people said.
Todway pointed to the pure black at the edge of the map: "There are things there that our comrades have not explored. Maybe Neo and Rothschild are still alive in it."
"Are you serious? Todway, everyone says they are dead, but you are the only one who still insists they are alive... Let's get the reality, those people are just cannon fodder at best.
Now! It’s our turn to be the next batch! "
Saler couldn't stand the atmosphere on the boat. He was so irritable that he grabbed his companion by the collar and wanted to throw him into the sea to feed the fish.
At this time, the good-natured Fitzton acted as a peacemaker, trying to calm down the two colleagues and stop being angry in such a narrow place.
"We exercise power on behalf of the Order Association. The prosecutor trusted us and sent us here to investigate the cause of the tsunami. If you start a fight, wouldn't you be living up to that person's expectations?"
"Do you also agree that we should become cannon fodder?"
Salle waved his fist, intending to hit this guy as well. Fitzton immediately tried hard to dodge his fist, and his body bumped around in the narrow cabin.
"What we need to do now is to find the space crack from here with the help of mysterious items and enter that place, instead of fighting among ourselves here."
"Saler, go out and get some air, otherwise you will get bored sooner or later."
"Sooner or later I'll throw you two into the water and feed them to the fishes."
Saler angrily left the cabin and stood on the deck. Ever since he found a job as an investigator, he has been dissatisfied with everything. Especially after learning that he could not quit this job, he became even more irritable.
How can a person who uses his life to work for others have a perfect mental state?
"Pah!"
Beside the boat, a hand that was soaked in sea water and turned white suddenly slapped the deck. Saler immediately looked over there alertly, and then saw a face without facial features climbing up miserably with the friction between the palm and the deck.
This creature was covered with black and worn cloth. Saler didn't know what it was, but he was in a bad mood, so he almost mercilessly kicked the faceless monster off the boat.
"Splash!"
The monster fell into the water, splashing waves higher than the boat.
"Is it a supernatural creature or something else? Forget it, it doesn't matter. My resentment at work is not inferior to any supernatural creature."
...
The sea area at the other end.
Riya sat leisurely on a small boat, holding a fishing rod, waiting for the fish to bite.
He took off his hat and placed it beside him, along with his cane, gloves, and tie. The young man put on his black coat as a warm cloth.
He half leaned against the mast at the back, looking lazy.
At this time, little Shival curled up in his hat and felt sleepy. Every time Riya caught a fish, he would give it to him.
And it was like a small black hole, swallowing up whatever the host threw.
