Don't call me evil god

Maren suddenly felt like he was on a pirate ship.

There is a very important reason why adventurers and mercenaries use the border defense line as the entrance and exit to leave the shelter of [Past Glory] by default:

When they return from the Dark Forest, people from the Glowing God Cult regularly use divine arts to detect the evil god pollution they have suffered.

This is a kind of insurance for people who often deal with monsters.

Once the evil god pollution exceeds the warning level, it is best to stay at the border defense line within the kingdom for a period of time to recuperate.

As a result, according to Hugo's meaning, they don't go through the border defense line at all?

Smuggling?

Could it be that they don't plan to come back!

Maren is already thinking about running away with his forging tools.

"No, no, you should explain the situation first. Why do we have to sneak across the border!"

They were about to cross the border soon, and Hugo had no intention of hiding it from Maren, and explained directly:

"It's very simple, because the great being I told you about, the God of Knowledge, is now being banned from entering the Kingdom of Reyak by the Glowing God Church in the name of heresy expulsion."

"I sneaked back into the kingdom, and now I have to sneak out."

"Heretical expulsion? What did the church of this god do? He also has heavyweight doctrines?"

"I don't know"

"Ah?"

The more Maren listened, the more confused he became.

Those who can be issued heretical expulsion orders by the Glowing God Church are often those whose doctrines are contrary to ordinary people's habits, such as the God of Joy and the God of Illusion.

How can someone be expelled, and he doesn't even know why he was expelled?

"Maybe the people of the Glowing God Church think that the believers of the God of Knowledge can also learn the Glowing God Art, which offends their doctrines?" Hugo guessed nonchalantly.

He was not a believer of the God of Radiance at all, and the goblins had no special reverence for any gods, and often spoke very boldly.

"Didn't the God of Radiance say that the Lord was the first ray of light that illuminated the world in the dark age, and that the Lord's appearance brought new hope to the world. Only by offering faith to Him can we get the recognition of Radiance and salvation, and so on."

"Tsk, let alone the God of Knowledge, even compared with the Goddess of Magic, the God of Radiance is far behind!"

Hugo's words made Maren sweat profusely.

If he said such words in front of the devout believers or monks of the God of Radiance, he would be sent to the dungeon for blasphemy.

According to legend, the Goddess of Magic controls the magic network, but He did not completely take over the authority of the magic network, but allowed other gods to borrow the power of the magic network.

For example, the God of Illusion, who was once driven out of the Kingdom of Reyak by the heretic expulsion order, the illusion spells given by the gods to believers were actually the effects of the magic network.

It's not just the Goddess of Magic, other gods also have similar "shared power" situations.

For example, some of the divine powers of the God of Craftsmen were shared by Him with the God of Casting.

But the God of Radiance is different. The scriptures of the God of Radiance say that the sacred radiance is the exclusive power of the Lord, and only those who believe in the Lord can receive the blessing and protection of the radiance.

After learning about the heretic expulsion order, Hugo wondered if the God of Radiance disliked the Church of Knowledge because of this.

Hugo's statement was a bit blasphemous.

After listening to it, Maren was a little relieved and stopped sweating.

Heretic expulsion is not the elimination of evil gods.

Then the problem is not particularly serious!

Anyway, he didn't pray to the gods Hugo mentioned and offer his faith.

When Hugo invited him to join the team, he promised him that he would give him a chance to master the magic of the God of Casting.

At worst, he would slip away if he saw that the situation was not right!

Go and observe the situation first.

After all, if Hugo, who has nothing to do with the goddess of magic, can learn magic, then with his 25% hill dwarf blood, if he can really master the divine arts, he should have no problem!

...

On the way to the Misty Valley, the occasional waves of monsters that appeared and attacked were successfully eliminated by the five escorting professionals.

The intensity of the monster attacks on this journey can now be described as "occasionally".

It is almost a world of difference compared to the first time Pete and his team went to the Misty Valley.

Because he paid attention to Hugo's plan to recruit new people, Norwen specially issued relevant tasks, and eliminating monsters on this journey can get extra rewards.

In the form of task rewards, the believers were guided to clear a lot of monsters nearby first.

This greatly increased the safety of Hugo's team.

Arrived at the Misty Valley and entered the interior along the passage left by the gray fog.

Walking out of the gray fog, the moment when the eyes suddenly opened up, Maren felt that his breathing was much smoother!

The air suddenly became fresher, and the environment was no longer as depressing as in the dark forest!

The heavy pressure in his heart also disappeared.

Hugo did not lie to him, this is really a new territory full of hope.

The higher the civilization order and the more positive the thought trend, the weaker the pollution of the evil god will be.

If the people in the territory are in danger and the people are in turmoil, the reduction of the pollution of the evil god will definitely not have such a significant effect.

The environment in the valley makes Maren feel like he has returned to the divine protection of the Kingdom of Reyak [Past Glory].

Even.

Maren sniffed the air carefully.

The fragrance of green grass, the fragrance of grains, the sweet fragrance of fruits, and the woody fragrance of houses.

In the morning in Ceylon, he could still smell the stench of people throwing excrement on the streets from time to time, but he didn't smell any such smell in the valley.

The square and neatly arranged wooden houses looked like they were carved out of the same mold, and all the houses were the same appearance and size.

Hugo didn't even need to actively preach to the refugees who came to the valley.

Although they were fooled by Hugo in the name of transporting goods.

But Hugo just led them to the creation altar for a walk first.

He personally demonstrated the process of exchanging knowledge points for toast.

Then he took them around the farmland and let them see with their own eyes the various fruits and vegetables growing vigorously in the land.

Then he took them to visit the basic houses that had just been built and no one had moved in yet.

"Do you want to eat this kind of food every day?"

"Do you want to live in a house like this?"

Without exception, the refugees actively asked what they had to do to become a member of the Church of Knowledge!

Even Maren couldn't escape the law of true fragrance.

After witnessing the scene where any farmer could easily cast the harvest magic.

"...What is the prayer of faith to the God of Knowledge?"
