Chapter 0811: The Big Three (Part II)
Chapter 0811 - The Three Giants (II)
However, the Church of Light in the Western world is different from Western paganism, these two religions are not as quiet and inactive as Taoism, and they are really not polite at all in terms of competing for believers, because believers are interests, so they will never give up competing for believers.

Therefore, in today's Western world, there are very few new religious organizations outside of the two ancient big religions of the Church of Light and Western Paganism, and whenever such an organization appears, as long as it begins to compete with the two religions of Light and Western Paganism, it will soon become a cult.
And then be wiped out by the Church of Light or Western paganism, this is a certain thing, and there will be no exceptions, because for religious organizations, the most intolerable thing is that another religious organization is competing with themselves, once they are on par with each other's strength, it will actually be forgotten.
Just like the Church of Light and Western paganism, these two religions are really about the same strength, and the two sides have been fighting for thousands of years without coming up with a result, so now both sides are coming from their own sides, and everyone recruits their own believers, and generally there will be no easy conflict.
And as long as there are new religious organizations, they will be immediately suppressed by these two old religions, and these new religions do not have so much energy to withstand the attacks of these two hegemon-level organizations in the Western world, so they will generally be annihilated quickly.
These two religions will not allow any religious organizations in the Western world to rise, as long as they appear in the Western world, in their sphere of influence, they will strike mercilessly, although from the position of the two sides themselves are hostile, but they have a full tacit understanding on this point.
Now that the big cake of believer resources in the Western world is divided equally between the two of them, they are not enough now, how can they allow any new religion to be inserted? Anyway, that's the way it is, the cake is so big, one person must be enough to eat, two people can barely eat, and a third person is absolutely not good.
Therefore, after several bloody lessons in the Western world today, slowly no one dares to stretch out their hands on religion anymore, because everyone knows that religion is the territory of those two giants, and whoever stretches out his hand will be cut off, so no one in the Western world today is engaged in such a thing as religion anymore.
In addition to religion, there are still the technology flow model of the Ghost Party and the mode of gathering talents of Tianlongwei in the Western world, which are the mainstream models in the Western world at present.
At most, it's not up or down, it's not too strong or too weak, it's just a middle-to-upper force anyway, and the second Tianlongwei's mode of gathering talents, the most typical is the Valhalla in Northern Europe and the Sword Association of the German Empire.
These two organizations are organizations that can compete with the Twelve Knights of the Round Table, and they are on the same level as the Twelve Knights of the Round Table, slightly inferior to the two giants of the Church of Light and Western Paganism. Both of these forces are the kind of Tianlongwei talent gathering model.
Of course, there is no way to compare the scale of them with Tianlongwei, after all, Tianlongwei occupies the entire Shenzhou Continent, and has the support of the entire Shenzhou Continent and some of the most righteous sects, so Tianlongwei has the appearance it has today, and Tianlongwei can be said to be the only organization in the world today with such huge resources.
Although the Valhalla in Northern Europe and the Sword Association of the German Empire are also the same model as Tianlongwei, there is really no way to compare their scale, after all, Tianlongwei has a regular Shenzhou land as a talent reserve base, and the entire Shenzhou land is basically equivalent to the entire Western world.
It is naturally impossible for Valhalla and the Sword Association to do this, these two organizations are only one of the powerful organizations in the Western world, not the only one, so in terms of scale, although the Valhalla and the Sword Association and the Heavenly Dragon Guard are the products of the same model, there is no way to compare them at all.
After all, Tianlongwei controls the resources of the entire Shenzhou, and although these two forces are also the top and most powerful forces in the Western world, they only control one region at most, and there is no way to compare with Tianlongwei, an organization that directly controls the human resources of the entire Shenzhou.
Of course, even if it is like this, Valhalla can almost be said to have enveloped all the heroes and heroes in the Nordic region, and almost all the strong people have been enveloped by Valhalla, after all, Valhalla has taken root in the Nordic region for too long, has become a representative of the local forces, and has a very high prestige in the Nordic region, so it will be like this, so it can do this thing, and all the talents in the entire Nordic region will be exhausted.
The talent and resources of an entire region gathered in one place are more powerful than anyone can imagine, and the talent and resources of the Nordic region alone have made the Valhalla organization one of the most powerful in the Western world.
Of course, the Sword Association of the German Empire does not all adopt this model, and the Sword Association is also mixed with some elite models, which can be regarded as an organization that combines the characteristics of these two models.
The Sword Association, as the name suggests, is an organization that specializes in absorbing swordsmen who practice swordsmanship, and this organization has not been established for too long, only a few hundred years, but in this short period of hundreds of years, this organization has climbed to one of the top forces in the Western world.
This sword association, rooted in the German Empire, is a holy place in the minds of all swordsmen in the entire Western world, because the most powerful swordsmen in the Western world are located in this place, and this place gathers most of the swordsmanship elites in the Western world, and naturally attracts all kinds of swordsmen in the West.
Today, the Sword Association has become a place similar to an academy, which is dedicated to the training of swordsmen, determined to cultivate more powerful swordsmen. And the reason why the Sword Association said that he absorbed the essence of these two models is precisely because the Sword Association is not just a pure gathering of talents into the organization.
The Sword Guild is fundamentally an elite system, but unlike the Knights of the Twelve Round Table, the Sword Guild has a peripheral organization, and most of the swordsmen who admire the Sword Guild will be absorbed into this peripheral organization if they are not strong enough.
Therefore, in fact, those people are not really members of the Sword Association, at most they are just supernumerary members, and this peripheral organization not only accommodates many peripheral members, but is also responsible for cultivating some potential and talented swordsmen.
After all, the vast majority of swordsmen in the world do not have enough swordsmanship cultivation to enter the real sword association, and most of them can only enter peripheral organizations. The reason why it is said that the Sword Association has absorbed the essence of the two systems is because of the existence of this peripheral organization, which can be said to be a vassal of the Sword Association, but it is not a part of the Sword Association.
And those who come to the German Empire to join the Sword Association must go through this peripheral organization and prove that they have enough cultivation before they can successfully enter the Sword Association.
Therefore, the system adopted by the real Sword Association is still an elite system, because the swordsmen who are not elites have been excluded from the peripheral organizations, and there is no possibility of entering the real Sword Association at all. The members of the True Sword Guild are all among the best swordsmen in the world.
Of course, the biggest difference between the real Sword Guild and the Knights of the Twelve Round Table is this, the Twelve Knights of the Round Table absorb the best talents they can see, but in any case, the total number is only twelve, and each generation is the same, and there will be absolutely no change.
And the Sword Association is different, the real Sword Association is not refused, as long as the cultivation is enough, you can join it, there is no limit to the number, of course, there is a little difference, the Twelve Round Table Knights is a closed organization, as long as you become a knight of the Twelve Round Table Knights, then naturally you are a member of the Round Table Knights.
And the Sword Association is not necessarily the case, the Sword Association is an open organization, as long as it is a master of swordsmanship, as long as the cultivation of swordsmanship is enough, then you can join the Sword Association, become a member of the Sword Association, in the absorption of members, the Sword Association never considers other things, even if the swordsman who comes has the identity of other forces, the Sword Association does not care.
Therefore, in fact, the Sword Association is not so much a force as the Sword Association is a benchmark for judging the strength of swordsmen in the world, and any swordsman who can successfully enter the Sword Association is definitely one of the top swordsmen in the world, which has nothing to do with the position.
The Sword Guild is a place that simply provides communication for the powerful swordsmen in the world, and has no jurisdiction over the swordsmen who enter the Sword Guild. Of course, the Sword Association also has its own power, and the members who enter the Sword Association are not all strong people from other forces, and there are also some idle and powerful swordsmen in the Western world who do not belong to any organization.
Most of these swordsmen have been incorporated into the organization by the Sword Association, because this organization is a very free and open organization, and there will be no restrictions on the members who join it, which is the most important thing for those swordsmen, because most of the people who practice swordsmanship have a temperament that would rather bend.
I don't want my freedom to be restricted, and it is indeed inconvenient for a person to walk in the world, so I don't know when such an organization as the Sword Association appeared in the Western world, and it has become one of the most powerful organizations in the Western world.
In addition to the two kings of the Western world, the Western Paganism and the Church of Light, the Valhalla, the Knights of the Twelve Round Table, and the Sword Association are now the three giants of the Western world, and even the two kings of the Western world dare not provoke them easily.
