182 The Persistence of the Divine Stick

"Temple priests have never been god eaters, and Elsa didn't belong to the temple in the first place. www.biquge.info The old woman was silent for a moment, and hit the nail on the head.

It's an overlooked thing, but in short, it's a side quest.

And the mochi was unconsciously so close to the task—she tilted her head to look at the tension between the man and the bird.

"Do you know Atlante, then?" The only thing Mochi remembers is the boss of the Blue-Eyed Palace, the woman who lost her daughter to her former empire - this old woman seems to be the continuation of this mission.

"Mina's mother?" The old woman remembered, "Poor woman, turned into a monster by the fury of vengeance, but her daughter was now like her, a monster, feeding the fears that were growing in that palace. ”

"You're supposed to be on control of those things, right?" Snow Eagle Road.

The old woman stopped talking, she "looked" at the mochi, from which she could feel a deep meaning, and after a long staring, she spoke: "Some friends scattered on the continent have told me about you, the heir of Oroel - do you want to know about Mitlanti, do you want to save her?" ”

Mochi nodded almost without hesitation.

"It's really kind," the old woman was silent for a while, and then said, "If there were more people of such kindness in the time of the Great War, maybe the Ultra Empire would not have become as ugly as it is now." ”

Strange as it sounds, the old woman, a priest, mocks her empire - a type that many of the remnants of the Ultra Empire have not felt.

The old woman pushed a book spread out on the table to the front of the table, which appeared to be a few ways of divination with cards, and the purple jeweled ring on the right hand that the old woman had previously concealed by folding her hands before asking Mochi to read the book showed its true appearance as the hand moved outward on the page.

The blue ink faded, and the font hidden under the pages seemed to float up from under the water.

This is a book about the religious history of the Ott Empire, and in general it is a part of the religious beliefs of the FC world - Shadu was once part of the Ott Empire, so the content of the book shown by the old woman is actually similar to the one that Shadu believes.

In the eyes of FC's NPCs, the world is actually two worlds, one is the realm of the living, and the other is the realm of the dead, and the average person from life to death is the process of going from the realm of the living to the realm of the dead, and the realm of the dead is a filthy world, and people's souls will be infected with sin when they arrive there.

The most important part of this story is about reincarnation - it's about the third world that people in FC are concerned about, Irondia.

To put it simply, people in FC believe that a person goes from birth to death to rebirth through the realm of the living to the realm of the dead and then to Erentia, but in this process, people will be infected with impurity, and this defilement will be carried on the body after rebirth, and the defilement will affect the identity of the next life, making them change from human beings to lowly people, and then to animals......

I have to say that this brain hole is still very big - in order to avoid this situation, especially some people of noble status, do everything possible to find a way to reach Irontia directly, so the design of the so-called Irontia Terrace and the tomb where Mowo is located are all similar reasons.

In the system of Movo's empire, they generally believed that the realm of the dead was not necessarily a filthy place, but that it caused a loss of souls.

In the worldview of the Terran race of the Ultra Empire, they believe that there is a race that can bring the souls of humans after death directly to Erentia, and this race comes from the sky, so they also call this thing the feather god.

If you really want to use any analogy, it is similar to describe it as an angel in reality.

"We think that Ironia is in the sky, and that a race with wings can bring souls directly to Irontia, and in doing so, people will live forever." The old woman saw that the mochi was almost finished, so she said softly.

That's why the sacred tree in Shadu is so revered - at first because it was thought to be tall, and then because it was thought to be evidence of the existence of a winged race.

"The role of the temple is to call on the feather god, talk to the feather god, and bless the king to gain the ability to enter Ironia directly." Snow Eagle also explained.

There is nothing to say, after all, whether it is the setting of the game or the setting of reality, this kind of thing is an indispensable content in the trajectory of the development of almost all civilizations.

The degree of is different, there is no superiority or inferiority.

"Did anyone succeed?" The mochi couldn't help but ask—a very straight question, asking if the magic sticks had really sent some king directly to Irontia.

The old woman was silent, and so was the snow eagle, for both knew better that there was nothing to say about it.

"Atlante was once the lady-in-waiting of the temple—one of thousands, and her daughter is more famous, after all, the one who once served Stahl," said the old woman, "and if you want to say success, there is, no, as far as I know, Stahl's soul is still preserved in this world." ”

"What's the point of that?" Snow Eagle landed on the table and "looked at the old woman", "Aren't you really from Ersa?!" Wouldn't the ending of that bastard ceremony make Her Royal Highness the princess worse off than dead! ”

"For thousands of years, there have been countless failures, but this is also a decision from the royal family," the old woman was not dismayed by these words, "the king put her in the temple to protect her because of her origins, but she created such dangerous rituals that finally made her 'become' Starr." ”

At this time, things have a rudimentary shape, Stal is not wrong to be the princess of the empire, and so is Elsa, but the latter is an illegitimate daughter, even if the illegitimate daughter gets the mercy of the king, she is only put in the temple, as a temple worker, as long as she does not do things, she can still live this life in peace, but people will die this death.

This led to the fusion of the souls of Star and Elsa during the war, and in fact no one knew what Elsa had done in it.

Of course, no one knows what happened next, and the souls of Elsa and Starr did not find a suitable body and were left in that temple until Nightlate and Mochi found them a hundred years after the story.

"This kind of old thing is the reason why you brought in the master?!" Snow Eagle was dissatisfied.

Although the player doesn't know it, Snow Eagle knows it.

"I thought you would only think of Starr as your master," the old woman's words made Snow Eagle speechless, "If you remember Stahl a little, this time should not be to watch the changes in the imperial capital without grief, nor is it to be busy every day without meaning. ”

"I remember you don't seem to have a good impression of the Ultra Empire?!" Not to be outdone, Snow Eagle is not to be outdone.

Although the other party said, "I thought you would only think of Starr as the master", Snow Eagle's body trembled.

It turns out that Snow Hawk's identity is far more than a moving pet, and it once had the status of an Imperial princess pet - although Snow Eagle himself didn't ask for it.

"The Empire has given me the soil to focus on my faith, and the temple has done its best, and I only want to revive the temple - Baird has awakened, and the increase of demons will create chaos and make the realm of the dead even more filthy. I don't want that to happen. The old woman said.

Sometimes the religious believers are very determined, and they will do their best to do something related to their beliefs.

What does the imperial capital have to do with them? All they want to do is to revive their faith so that more people can restore order to society under the influence of their religion.

"What do you want to do?!" Snow Eagle said the key.

"Destroy the palace," said the old woman, as she stood up, a person who had been quiet and distant, but now gave a sense of déjà vu of a warrior, "those emperors who are bound by nothingness must be destroyed, and the folly of inaction is the work of heresy!" ”

Mochi didn't understand this kind of religious belief, but he still found it quite shocking.

Well...... At least they found the first NPC that could unite against the imperial capital.

"That'...... Who else are you here? Mochi asked tried.

"I'm the only believer left, but there are some people who are starting to be dissatisfied with Grena's rule - the demons have recently wanted to regain the power of immortality through Elletiatai, and there is no doubt that the imperial capital will become the first city to be converted by demons." The old woman is humane.

That's a big deal.

Although the imperial capital is not very popular with players, the number of NPCs in it is not less than that of other capitals, and it is more than three times that of the small place in the winter capital.

"That'...... How can we stop them? Mochi carefully organizes her language.

"Destroy some of the facilities in the palace that are connected to the demons, and restore the former defense system." This answer is a bit short, but there are a lot of things behind it, at least Mochi can feel the huge amount of work involved.

What is the facility for connecting with the demons, and how to destroy it? How many people are needed, and what protection is in them? How can the defense system be restored?

The most troublesome thing is how to stop the monsters who come to stop them.

Now the demons are indeed preparing for Ellen Tiatai, but since the emperor is regarded as the place where the demons were created, there will definitely be no shortage of demons used to monitor here.

"Can we find our teammates?" Mochi thought for a moment, and then said, "Lord Jetsina wants me to unite with the people of the Imperial Capital to destroy the demons." ”

Mochi didn't say that the letter had anything to do with Ugosa, but directly said Jetsina - the name did make the old woman's chaotic eyes shine with a glimmer.

"it!" Mochi also wanted to say about the fact that they went to the union headquarters before, and in the team channel that had been open at the request, the screams of Midsummer Sky suddenly appeared, "Lie it! ”

"You speak human words!" The voice of the Magic Book House followed.

"What's wrong with the midsummer sky?" It's a hundred herbs.

Mochi blinked, waiting for the next words in the middle of summer.

"I've failed again! What the hell is this defense! After Midsummer Sky finished speaking, sure enough, there was a "cut" from the magic bookstore, but he didn't finish, "And I just saw a person walking out of the union headquarters, and I was so scared that I ran quickly!" ”

"Which ex-girlfriend are yours?" The Magic Book House thought for a moment.

There are quite a lot of ex-girlfriends in the middle of summer.

"Oh ex-girlfriend, I met three ...... Phew, that's not the point, there's an NPC coming out of the union headquarters - the elven queen Dinah! Midsummer's empty tone became a little serious.

There was a different kind of light in the eyes like a mochi spring.

Although Dinah is no longer an elf but a demon at this time, she is still quite impressed by Mochi, since she has appeared here, at least two things can be launched, the first is that Dinah may be the protector of the imperial capital at this time, and it is also the boss they may have to face, and the other point is that the union headquarters may have fallen to the demons.

It seems that they only have one supporting NPC from the old woman?

"Dinah helped Xiu imprison Mori, at this time the head of the union headquarters has completely surrendered to the demons, if you rescue Mori, there is still a chance - as far as I know, many unions seem to have the will to rebel against the imperial capital." The old woman didn't know how she had read the content of the team channel, and she said slowly, the voice apparently being heard clearly by the others in the team channel.

The two screams came from Midsummer Sky and Baicao, they didn't expect any NPC to do this.

To be reasonable, this is eavesdropping!

I have to say that sometimes this kind of idealist is quite scary......

[Congratulations on accepting the mission "Rescue Maury"]

Accustomed to the tradition of the FC that abruptly abandons a task and does not allow others to refuse, it is important to dig a way underground to the union headquarters.

I thought I could dodge this...... Midsummer Sky felt like he was really thinking too much.

"I'm going to go find some tools, there seem to be some magic items that can be used here, tsk......" The Magic Book House had to admit it.

Of course, compared to such brainless digging, they never considered going directly from inside the union headquarters - to be reasonable, neither decades of applying nor negotiating with those NPCs was what they wanted to do.

Thankfully, Mochi brought good news - although it was also impossible to understand the NPCs' attachment to what Ironia reincarnated or something, but ...... It's better than looking confused before. (To be continued.) )
