Working Prophet

Chapter 388 Return of Herodotus

"Revenge?" Li Yu frowned, "Has the Treles family had any feud with anyone before?"

"High Priest Martina called on the nobles of the Western Territory to abide by the oaths made thousands of years ago. When the Skitarii was formed, the Trelles family was one of the first nobles to respond. Kamzi sent his younger brother, the White Eagle Knight. Dorossel led three hundred elite soldiers to the city in the lake.

"But then a tragedy occurred in Scaled City. High Priest Martina and the nobles present were poisoned to death, including Dorothy. When the news came back to Red Tower City, Kamzi was very angry. He and Dorothy Er's relationship has always been very good, and the two have been inseparable since childhood.

"In order to avenge his brother, Kamzi ordered to search for traces of Herodotus and his accomplices in Red Tower City. The guards of the Trelles family arrested many believers of the Silver Moon Church in the next few days. There were about two or three hundred people, and two priests.

"In order to torture out the whereabouts of Herodotus, they tortured those poor guys, causing the death of about fifty or sixty people, including a priest, but in the end they got nothing. Those who survived were killed by Cam Locked together in the dungeon."

"Does the Silver Moon Church know about this?" Li Yu asked.

"They know it, but it's of no use. In recent times, similar things have happened in the territories of many noble families. After all, Kamzi is not the only one who lost a relative in the Scaled City. The Silver Moon Church has just dealt with its losses first, and just now The disarmament declaration has been issued, and it is necessary to win the support of the noble family, so now we can only turn a blind eye."

"So Herodotus launched an attack on the Trelles family?"

"That's right," Ilea nodded. "That group of people claimed to be from the Blood Moon Society to distinguish themselves from the previous Silver Moon Church. They still believed in Pisiya, but they advocated uniting all believers to form an army and use violence. Maintain your own beliefs and recast the glory of the goddess.

"Herodotus is their leader. However, he claims to the outside world that he is acting according to the orders of the goddess and is completely loyal to the goddess. However, in fact, the Blood Moon Society is simply Herodotus's words. He claims to be the Chosen One and can communicate with the goddess. Communicate, and usually issue orders on behalf of the goddess."

"Your worries before were correct. Even though he has been expelled from the church, Herodotus' prestige among the believers of the Silver Moon Church is getting higher and higher.

"In view of the various difficulties that Silver Moon Church has encountered in the past six months, Pisiya's followers are eager to give birth to a stronger leader within the church. And..."

"And what?"

"Furthermore, Herodotus also performed many miracles in front of his believers, such as being able to light cotton in a jar without lighting a fire, so the followers around him became even more devoted to him.

"Although all the major families have sent many people to hunt him down, almost all of the people in the Western Region are Pisiya's believers. There are always people who have tipped off the news in advance. Until now, no one has been able to catch him."

"???"

Li Yu didn't expect that Herodotus learned very quickly. He even copied the adiabatic compression experiment and used it to deceive the followers below. It seems that he was not without gain after being fooled by Clara. .

At least the level of natural science has improved.

As for the split of the Silver Moon Church, it was not too unexpected by Li Yu, because there had already been disagreements within the Silver Moon Church on whether to form an armed force.

Since believers have needs in this area, of course new sects will come out to fill this gap, but Herodotus's decisiveness still impressed Li Yu.

He first killed High Priest Reeves, then imprisoned High Priest Hesiod, expelled High Priest Martina, and used force to coerce the other three high priests. After that, he actually took control of the entire Silver Moon Church.

However, they still took the risk of becoming enemies with all the nobles in the western region to form a new army, which promoted the development of the Silver Moon Church towards armed development.

But now it seems that Herodotus obviously did not place his hopes on the previous group of mobs, and he had the idea of ​​treating these people as abandoned children from the early morning.

The reason why he formed such a smoky army was just to attract High Priest Martina and her Skitarii to the Scaled City, and then complete the poisoning of them.

At the same time, he obviously also knew the character of the new head of the Raimondi family, and knew that Shapiro would carry out a bloody purge of the new army he left in the city, thus further inflaming the nobles of the Western Region and the ordinary believers of the Silver Moon Church. conflicts between.

Provide more suitable soil for the development of the Blood Moon Society, and after eliminating the other six high priests, Herodotus, a marginal character among the original seven, suddenly became the only remaining elder, further enhancing his popularity among the people. prestige.

The seven newly elected people of the Silver Moon Church are currently unable to compete with him. Although the Silver Moon Church has expelled Herodotus, in the hearts of the vast majority of believers, Herodotus is still the high priest of the church, and Many people don't think he did anything wrong and sympathize with what happened to him.

In short, Herodotus looks crazy on the surface, but everything he does actually has a strong purpose and logic, and he has been secretly paving the way for the birth of the Blood Moon Society.

Li Yu went back and sorted out what happened in the City of Scales. Herodotus had obviously realized the limitations of the Silver Moon Church very early on and decided to start a new one.

From a personal point of view, this is actually not a wise decision. It means that Herodotus has to give up everything he currently owns, including but not limited to his status, reputation, wealth... and at the same time, he has to fight with everyone in the Western Region. The nobles are enemies.

But it was also because of this that Li Yu could conclude that this guy should be a real fanatic.

An extremist sect that promotes violence formed by fanatics, this combination does not sound very good.

Although the Blood Moon Society is still very weak, even inferior to the Shuangxiu Church, the Blood Moon Society has an advantage that no one can match.

That is, it is attached to the towering tree of the Silver Moon Church, and can directly draw nutrients from the Silver Moon Church.

In addition, it is foreseeable that Herodotus and his Blood Moon Society will continue to cause trouble in the western region, intensifying the conflict between ordinary believers and the nobles of the western region.

The Trelles family in Hongta City was the first victim, but it will definitely not be the last.

As a pagan religion, the Shuangxiu religion is of course also within the purging range of the Blood Moon Society.

"It seems that the nearest western border is not peaceful." Li Yu said.

Miss Rabbit also sighed when she heard the words, and at the same time, she was a little thankful that she had defected to Saturday early. Now, through the continuous efforts of Li Yu and all the Hughes, more than 99% of the people in Luye are weekend teachers. believers.

At least to avoid the situation like the Trelles family who were touched to their hometown and didn't know anything about it.
