Realm of Power

The golden morning light shines on the steps leading to the highest temple. Huge white marble pillars are lined up. Each pillar is engraved with the guidance of Prophet Ferran. He holds a sword in one hand and a bronze teaching in the other, with a serious expression. Solemn, showing the vicissitudes of time,

The entire steps are also made of pure white marble. It is said that when this highest temple was originally built, more than 200,000 Sky Cultists used the primitive method of carrying people on their shoulders to dig it from the Miyaris Mountains, which is more than 300 miles away. The Sky Cultists paved these top-quality marble materials step by step along this winding mountain road, which lasted ten years.

This is the foreshadowing of people's hearts and the most obvious manifestation of the influence of divine authority on secular people's hearts. Compared with the power of secular royal authority supported by force, divine authority that is based on the piety of believers often has more power to directly control people's hearts.

Royal power and divine power, the conflict between the two has never stopped since the emergence of religion in mankind, and now on the steps leading to the palace of divine power on the top of the mountain, sharp swords and armors are hunting falcons fluttering in the morning breeze. The battle flag makes the entire mountain road under the shroud of secular royal power.

"This is a holy place, you can't do this! This is blasphemy. I want to see the Governor." Monroe, the high priest of the Presbyterian Church, looked flustered and personally found Statunko, the southern governor of the empire who arrived yesterday, to comment.

The Governor immediately showed his ruthless nature, his eyes were full of murderous intent and he snorted coldly, saying coldly, "In my eyes, there is no holy land, only the land of the empire! Your Majesty will definitely deal with such a major event as the temple being bombed." Ask in person unless the door Chief Priest Luo already thinks that the Holy Land can override the empire! If that were the case, it would be easy. His Majesty has never been soft on rebellion! So if Chief Priest Luo is in the mood to question him, he might as well think about it. Face His Majesty's wrath"

"There, how is this possible!"

High Priest Monroe was so frightened that he was covered in cold sweat and hurriedly ran away with his head in his arms. The Southern Governor was right. For such a big matter tonight, the Vecia Falcon will definitely pursue the matter personally instead of wasting time here. , it’s better to figure out the situation immediately, I thought of this. The high priest of Monro immediately summoned Mamunuk, who was on duty tonight. But no one can clearly explain diligence,

The situation tonight broke out too suddenly. The highest temple of High Priest Parstina suddenly exploded, and half of the entire temple collapsed. Fortunately, High Priest Parstina suffered severe injuries in the explosion. The damage was not serious, but her personal maid Hongyue was killed because Vepalskina blocked the rubble from the explosion, and the ecclesiastical dean Adonis, who was also in the temple at the time, was also unfortunately shot in all directions. He was seriously injured after being hit by rocks, and he is currently undergoing treatment in a hurry.

Monroe took a look just now. The body of the ecclesiastical dean was very thin. At this moment, it looked like he had been slashed with more than a dozen knives. There were open wounds all over his body, and the snow-white priest's robe was stained with blood. It was red, his right arm and legs were unnaturally bent, and he was obviously fractured. There were bloody foam and broken internal organs coming out of the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were white. Completely lost focus,

After all, Monroe had been on the battlefield and had seen mountains of corpses and seas of blood. But I was also startled by the miserable appearance of the number two figure in the temple. It would be unreasonable if all of them could survive. There is no point in asking about the dead.

"I would like to ask the high priest, apart from you, Hongyue, and Dean Adonis, was there anyone else at that time?" Monroe was anxious, and he was among the three people present at the time. One was dead, one was injured, and the other was basically dead. In desperation, Munro had no choice but to ask the frightened Parstina in person, but the high priest remained silent on the matter, seeming to have something unspeakable. When the sun rose, the entire Holy Mountain had been turned upside down, especially the highest temple where the explosion occurred on the top of the mountain.

Everyone was gathered on the wide plain in front of the ruins of the Supreme Temple. This place used to be used by believers to worship the Supreme Temple, so it was built very huge. The ground was paved with stones. Ivan Brown, one of the four high priests of the Presbyterian Church, , with a solemn face, in front of him is the high priest Monroe, and behind him is the dean of the church, whose whole body is wrapped in white cloth. If his chest were not still rising and falling weakly, he would be like a corpse. The one on the left is full of white hair. Deimos, the four of them are in the first row,

Behind is the entire middle level of the temple, with about fifty priests. Further down, there is a dark mass of more than 300 low-level priests, and finally the one hundred and fifty Mamunuk knights who belong to the temple. ,

No one knows what happened last night. Huge explosions resounded from the top of the temple, flames shot into the sky, people put out the fire in a mess, and then in the early hours of this morning, a large number of imperial troops suddenly pressed into the area. Everything seemed like a terrible nightmare. The priests who thought they were agents of theocratic power in the past suddenly found that they did not even have the courage to stand up and say a word in front of these real armies with murderous intent.

The army searched the entire holy land and drove everyone out of their residences. These priests, who were respected as the spokespersons of theocratic authority in the past, were now in a state of silence. The dark and deep faces of the imperial soldiers on both sides looked like daggers. , making everyone feel cold on their backs and difficulty breathing, His heart was pounding fiercely. That kind of momentum and majesty, condensed from hundreds of battles, could put heavy pressure on people just by looking at him. It was unimaginable without personal experience, and no one would believe it. , in this murderous aura, every second of waiting, the calves could not help but tremble.

When faced with real power, these priests who used to think they were superior suddenly found that the so-called God would not give them courage. Their so-called divine power disappeared like water in front of the power of the empire.

The so-called divine supremacy is simply a joke. In the eyes of the empire, they are just a group of self-righteous ants. Even if they just fly by and bring a whistle, it is enough to put them in an irretrievable situation!

For the first time, they felt that their lives were like a leaf in the wind, which could be shredded by the sharp empire sword at any time. The sky was sunny, but what shone on them was the majestic coldness. The black armor around them seemed to cover up the light. They knelt like this, and no one dared to stand up.

"What is going on!"

Occasionally, there were a few confused whispers from the dozens of priests in the middle layer behind the four great priests. A few people looked at each other and then separated their eyes. Their faces were hesitant and pale, and their eyes flashed with a secret luster. To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets at Qidian.
