My summons are weird

As the only person in Dawn Territory who has used the "divine power" built by faith, Sera described it as a different kind of magic power, the difference being that its source comes from the "god" itself, not the world.

No one knows what kind of effect it can show, but David has slightly expanded their horizons for them.

"Sierra, what I said is true... It's amazing. The heart that the dagger was supposed to pierce was dispelled by an invisible force. I seemed to see the phantom of silver-white leaves in the air... But the believers said that they couldn’t see the scene I described, and thought that I was too frightened and had hallucinations.” David babbled, “If others don’t believe it, you should believe me, you are God’s Chosen!”

Although the Theocracy has a new God Chosen, Serra has been away from the Theocracy for three years, but David still can't change his words, which makes Serra can't help but wonder if he usually calls the current God Chosen by mistake Name, if this is the case, he is too majestic as the archbishop of the executive court.

On the other side of the communication statue, David kept groping his chest. He recalled the attack that happened the day before, and he was still in shock.

The turmoil spreading in the south of the Theocracy intensified. The city-states along the two important hubs of Fagutar and Port de Maurice were once in a state of loss of contact. The chaos completely opposed the believers of the Theocracy and the refugees. The right and wrong of the Luni Town tragedy that caused the riots are irrelevant. After the situation got out of control and more and more innocent people were involved, the confrontation was inevitable.

The furious Guanghui believers resolutely rejected the exhortations of the regional bishops, consuls, magistrates, and even prestigious old believers. They only wanted one thing - to expel those who disrespected the silver maple tree and the God of Radiance. , if the Guanghui Academy is unwilling to do it, then they will do it themselves.

The Archbishop of the Inquisition Court who came with David, and the nun Mei Li who was trained by Maojing, has already noticed something bad after reviewing the conflicts that happened in the past month.

The way of thinking and behavior of the Academy of Glory is inherited from Laurent, and it is peaceful in dealing with things, advocating not to use religion as a standpoint to conflict with others.

After Laurent came to power and signed an agreement not to preach to the outside world, eighty years of influence made the people of the Theocracy extraordinarily lenient in doctrine and rules, and they were not enthusiastic about missions. They were more inclined to set an example and make the outside world People feel the peace under the rule of the Theocracy, gradually choose to understand them, and then understand what they believe in.

Today, half of the people in the House of Glory are the children that Laurende watched and grew up, and half of them are his right-hand assistants. Laurende's precepts and deeds made them choose relief and acceptance as soon as the refugee wave began.

During this process, the only person who disagreed was the new Pope named by Laurent himself, Antonio.

Antonio raised the issue of re-examining the internal and external environment before deciding whether to provide relief during the relief discussion. Although he did not explicitly object to the members of the Academy of Glory, his words already showed an ambiguous attitude—this matter , should not be controlled.

Tube, easy to catch fire.

No matter, against Laurent's teaching.

The turmoil in the south reminded Meili and David of Antonio's hesitation and sighed helplessly. In an instant, they realized that the mixed beliefs had entered an area with stable beliefs, and the religious conflicts that had been away from the Theocracy for decades would surely return.

The introverted followers of Theocracy treat refugees as before, sharing generously and silently supporting them. Residents around Fagutar and De Maurice have all experienced sharing their own food. They donate silently, not for missions, but for Don't forget the beauty that the great sun that has fallen has brought.

Unfortunately, what rewarded them was not mutual understanding, but transgression and blasphemy.

The regional bishop has been reporting conflicts between local refugees and some believers since half a year before the riots began, but most of them focus on mediation, and most of the people of the Church country have accepted the results of mediation peacefully—they are willing to understand the refugees If you have not yet understood the atmosphere, order, and rules of the Theocracy, ask yourself, not everyone can follow the Romans as quickly as they do.

But in the spring, something changed.

Many refugees were not willing to work according to the distribution of the consul in exchange for rationed food. They began to ask for official citizenship of the Church, and left the designated residential area without permission to reclaim fields and land and build houses.

Facing the resignation and demolition of the magistrates, they showed a strong aggressiveness and began to form a group. After the Halo missionaries ended up persuading them to no avail, rumors of the Theocracy's abuse of refugees spread everywhere. Under pressure, The city-state lord of Fagutar chose to back down.

David and Meili personally summoned the kind old lord, the gray-haired man kowtowed silently, and blamed himself for the escalation of the riot.

"At that moment... I remembered Lord Laurent's teachings, so I couldn't bear to..."

The old lord knocked the floor tiles open, and his forehead was covered with blood. He witnessed the evil consequences of his compromise.

In the Luni Town massacre, the girl who was buried alive by refugees and heretics was believed to have had an enmity with the infidels in a fruit tree picking conflict—although her father was responsible for the enmity, apparently the infidels ignored them. She was the first thing that came to mind when choosing the living sacrifice.

If he hadn't backed down, but had a notorious reputation, those refugees would wantonly reclaim the land and build houses at random, and they wouldn't invade the area where the people of the Theocracy were living normally, and they wouldn't be angered because of conflicts in obtaining resources.

The anger that the Theocracy had accumulated for half a year, those gunpowder piled up in the gunpowder kegs, finally ushered in a large enough Mars, and the believers who were influenced by the Laurentian era no longer comforted themselves "they are homeless , should give in", and no longer tell themselves to "understand them more", although they know that doing so is like personally blaspheming Pope Laurent, but...

The gods were profaned, the silver maple tree was insulted, and they kept their own place. The believers who frequently helped were insulted and slandered. The self-denying father saw the body of his daughter who was buried alive, and the villagers who allowed them to pick the fruit trees they planted became The charred corpse in the fire...

They can't bear it anymore!

Port de Maurice, who dealt with sea monsters, monsters, and alien races across the sea all day long, fired the first shot. No one knows who put up the reward posted on the Adventurer's Union for hunting the heretics, a gold coin , a long gun, and a piece of clothing. The reward for such a fragmentary reward is obviously that the bounty hunter took out everything he owned.

It was like lighting a cigarette in a warehouse full of kerosene, and the monstrous rage reached its climax with the bounties stacked on the bounties by the adventurers who heard the news.

Adventurers no longer want bullshit rewards, and they don't care whether the magistrate will punish them afterwards, whether the gods are willing to forgive their atrocities, whether the spirit of Pope Laurent will feel sad about it...

Blasphemy, die!

That night, the adventurers in Port de Maurice buried more than 60 heretics alive, and none of them was intact before being pushed down the pit.

A complete confrontation unfolded after that night. The refugees huddled together in panic, worried about the attacks of the Radiance Cultists, and finally turned into an active attack...

Before David and Meili arrived, the situation had become so severe that most villages and towns outside Fagutar and the city-state of Demoris had been attacked.

David believes that someone is secretly provoking the sentiments of the people and spiraling the conflict to an irreconcilable level. He believes that he should personally mediate as the Archbishop of the Academy of Glory to give the people a sense of security.

Meili approved of this plan, but it was too late to implement it.

David, who was walking on the street, faced a dirty child who stretched out his hand to beg for food. He felt compassion and bought bread for him.

Facing the child's grateful embrace, he responded without any defense, and then... the dagger sank into his loose robes.

David's entourage immediately held down the child who pretended to be crazy, while he himself was staring at his bleeding chest, inexplicably shocked.

The wound was not deep, but it looked scary. At that moment, David clearly saw the silver maple leaves floating in the sky, and also felt the strength of the dagger sinking into his body fade away.

Everyone told him it was a hallucination, even Mei Li was no exception, so that when he communicated with Sera, his tone was a little unconfident.

"I don't understand...he is just a child, only in his teens. What kind of hatred can make him so fierce? At that moment, he was ferocious like a wild beast. If my servants hadn't subdued him, I think he would have tried his best Everything kills me."

"We gave them food, we gave them shelter ... what more could they want?"

If possible, Sera really didn't want to hear stories of divine manifestations in this way.

David fell into self-doubt, as did Meili, who put together the information.

One is an honest man and a faithful believer who is favored by the silver maple tree.

One is an elite taught by Mao Jing and Laurent.

Seeing this group of people who were paid attention by the Radiance Institute and allocated special funds from the Magic Tide Emergency Reserve Material Bank bit the Theocracy fiercely, they couldn't let it go.

Perhaps there are indeed people behind the scenes who are fueling the flames, but is there a solution to this knot?

Sela hesitated to speak, and finally only sighed.

In the long river of history, chaos is the norm, and peace is the abnormality. During the long peace of the Theocracy over the past hundred years, those dams woven by countless sages and wise men stopped the tide of chaos from invading the lights of thousands of families behind them.

But this wave is far better than the past.

"Laurende never wants you to blindly apply his experience. You of the Academy of Glory, make a change... Also, David, I can only tell you that what you see is not false. One day, you will Hear His voice."

"Until that day comes, keep going."

"May the God of Silver Maple and Glory protect you." (End of this chapter)
