Chapter 264: The Iron Rule of Civilization

The so-called pact of the strong is nothing but a joint agreement between the strong of all parties, which stipulates that once the strongest of the two hostile forces cannot distinguish the winner from the loser, then they should no longer meddle in the battlefield, and each side will rely on the strength of the armies of each side to divide the victory and defeat, and the top strong cannot wantonly kill low-level monks, etc.

It's just that the basis for fulfilling all these things is that if there is a strong man on each side and the strength is equal, the strong man's covenant will be followed, otherwise, everything will be in vain.

In the final analysis, strength is the most important thing, although there are all kinds of treaty constraints, but everyone knows that the strong cannot be restrained, even if it is at the same level, if you make up your mind to do it to ordinary people, regardless of the identity of the strong, no one can stop it.

There have been such people in history, with the supreme cultivation of the ninth order, cholera world, slaughtering all living beings, the Xianwu Empire at that time had not yet disintegrated, it was still a complete country, extremely powerful, but even so, it still paid millions of ordinary people to kill and wound, and in the case of the entire worship courtyard, it was barely killed, this turmoil also made the Xianwu Empire realize how powerful the uncontrolled top powerhouses are, at which stage, the Xianwu Empire has an average of three or two high-ranking officials killed and injured every day, even under the protection of the extremely powerful national fortune, under the protection of the official fortune accumulated for countless years, there are still dozens of dead and injured officials, which almost caused a talent fault in the Xianwu Empire, and the harm was huge.

Since then, the Xianwu Empire has made a strong pact, and all those who wantonly massacre ordinary civilians on a large scale will be punished by human civilization!

This is also the only iron law with a certain deterrent effect in the strong convention, even the top strong will abide by it, and it will not violate this article unless it is extreme, after all, after the establishment of this strong convention, the others have not been stained with blood, only this one, dozens of seventh-order powerhouses, dozens of eighth-order powerhouses, and single-digit ninth-order powerhouses, a venerable and powerful blood makes this iron law sacrosanct and inviolable, and becomes a deterrent.

Because of the blood of many great powers, as well as the resentment of the great power after death, as well as the faith of hundreds of billions of human beings, plus the approval of the Heavenly Dao in the underworld, all human civilians who slaughter for no reason and cross the realm will be judged by this iron rule, seven, eight, The ninth-order powerhouse will be suppressed by the beliefs gathered by hundreds or hundreds of billions of ordinary people over countless years, and will even be punished according to what they have done, and the serious ones will fall into the realm, and the iron condensed by the power of endless faith will be directly crushed to death, all kinds of punishments, so that every great power will not easily massacre civilians on a large scale.

Of course, there are still many loopholes to exploit in this iron rule, such as prohibiting the large-scale massacre of civilians by human powerhouses, and the iron rule will not restrict other strong people of the sixth order and below, and these strong people who are enough to threaten the lives of ordinary people will not be restricted by the iron rule.

Therefore, although this iron rule, which has already made rules in the dark, prohibits the large-scale massacre of civilians by the strong human beings, although it restricts the top powerhouses from directly slaughtering civilians, it will not become a weapon in the hands of civilians against the strong, so strength is still the most important.

After the strongest of the two sides made a move, they found that they could not help each other, so they could only form a confrontation, and they did not end up easily, sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai platform, hoping that their army could help them achieve victory.

The garrison in Rein City ushered in such a large wave of new troops, which was obviously much easier, not only to easily hold the city, but even to counterattack.

However, in the end, they are two forces, they cannot cooperate sincerely, and the gap between them is not small, although they are now fighting side by side, but they cannot give each other the greatest trust.

If it weren't even for Afanasi taking out a handwritten letter with the seal of Isrod, the garrison and the army of the Temple of Light would probably not have fought.

For a long time, in the Elemental Empire, the reputation of the Temple of Light was not very good, not to mention that everyone shouted and beat it, but if you believe in this and go out to buy vegetables, the aunt will give you a separate price increase.

In the long past, there was little room for the Church of Light to develop, in fact, if a country wants to put an end to a church before it has developed, it is too simple, no matter how you brainwash, it is not as good as the benefits and subsidies given to civilians at the national level, and it is an unwise choice to rashly offend the top of the empire before it takes root.

Although the relationship between the two parties is not very good, the arrival of reinforcements from the Temple of Light still gave Rein a mouthful of blood, 500,000 Templars, 100,000 after being swept away by Villero yesterday, the remaining 12,356 Knights of the Holy Light, 3,000 Light Priests, 500 Fourth-Order Ascetics (the original source has been ascertained, and it is set as a special class of the Church of Light here), and ten fanatics.

This can already be regarded as a bloody investment, this combat power, it is not a problem to destroy a small human kingdom, but even so, at the beginning, Afanasi, who was full of confidence and fought a defensive counterattack at two ends in three days, the bigger it was to the later stage, the more grooves on his face became.

What kind of monster is this! The endless skeleton army makes Afanasi a little desperate, this is special, Afanasi asked himself, the skeleton army that has been eliminated in the past few days has been counted to be at least millions, but looking at the array of skeleton army, there is no reduction at all!

With a somewhat crazy expression, Afanasi, with the assistance of fanatical believers, transmitted the information on the battlefield at this time back to the Temple of Light through the faith network, and after receiving the news, the Temple of Light held an emergency meeting.

"I don't think we should increase our troops again, at present, according to the information sent back by Afanasi, it is not that they can't defend, and even there is no problem in holding it for a year and a half, the other side obviously does not have so much strength, and captured Rein City in one fell swoop, so we drag it like this, anyway, according to the contract, we send troops to help Ithrod hold the border, and he has no excuse to make trouble!"

Archbishop Gregory is still in the same tone as before, because Archpope Sebastian has finalized the agreement with the Elemental Empire, which cannot be resisted, but it is impossible to continue to increase the number of people!

At this time, Archbishop Pierre also agreed with Archbishop Gregory, and he also believed that there was no need to send troops again at this time, just let Afanasi defend it tightly and prevent the skeleton army from breaking through the city of Rein.

"Indeed, if this is all there is to it, plus a few treasures, it will be enough for Ithrod to acquiesce to our Light Church into the Elemental Empire and spread our faith, but I want to tell you that it is not that simple!"

Of the twelve archbishops, one of them, who had been silent since the last meeting, spoke, and it didn't matter, so that all eyes were focused on him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, before saying this, I have gone through careful judgment and strict investigation, and finally came to the conclusion that if we did not have the help of Ithrod, or any of the local great forces of the Elemental Empire, it would be impossible for us to successfully take root and thrive in this huge belief market, and we may even die on the spot!"

The words are not shocking, Alfred snapped!
