Chapter 360: The World's Enemy Traverser
"Blasphemy! This is the greatest blasphemy! Unpardonable sin! ”
Bane, the god of war and conquest, sent out a thunderous wave of thought, a signal that spread rapidly through the void, quickly spreading His anger and hatred far away, informing his listeners of His steadfastness and solemnity.
In the new world, it is a matter of course that a belief is attributed to the gods, so who should the soul belong to is really still to be studied, at least for the time being, this is still a difficult subject that has not yet been conclusively closed.
The souls of believers are supposed to belong to the gods they believed in during their lifetimes, and those who do not believe in them will be nailed to the walls of the underworld by the god of death, showing the extreme hatred and hatred of the gods for the scum of the unbelievers. However, this system is by no means perfect, just as the devil and demons occasionally raid the underworld to rob souls, and the question of where the souls end up is far from being as unquestionable as it seems.
So far, only one thing is certain, the soul resources of the new world have been regarded by the gods as their own meal, and whoever dares to stretch their chopsticks into their rice bowls, then don't blame them for turning their faces unceremoniously.
Knowing that the mysterious incident of a large number of souls disappearing for no reason in the Battle of Chishui was caused by Will Needham, the magician, the gods who knew about it showed their different attitudes, which is indeed a strange thing. Needless to say, a stubborn hostile faction like Bane who wants to fight Luo Zhengdao to the end, he would still shout and kill without this, and the other gods were too ambiguous. Don't forget that the Demon Card Master once held the supreme authority of the New World, and in a head-to-head confrontation, he overturned the Aragami series, and such a brilliant heroic deed could not find a similar example that could be compared to the history books of the New World.
Although Will Needham is a lonely man at the moment, he does not pose a common threat to all the gods, and it is not good news to continue to let him sit on the throne.
In the endless void far away from the world, a feminine soft voice said slowly:
“…… Perhaps this is a fluke, and we should think carefully about it and see what happens next. ”
After a while, the attitude and voice of another cold female voice became much colder, and the interface said:
"It's not the soul of my believer, then it doesn't matter, I don't care what you like to think."
Similar to the statements of the two gods in front of them, a relatively neutral voice slowly took over and said:
“…… I will watch his behavior and will not take action for the time being. ”
At this time, a shrill voice suddenly interjected, and retorted:
"Are you sure he won't have the ability to slay gods from those magicians?"
After a moment of coldness, an old voice sighed and said:
“…… I will not be involved in your actions, especially Bane's. ”
In the midst of this unprecedented debate of gods, the number of gods who supported Bane's views increased to seven, but even then, the other gods still had their own positions, and they were unable to reach a consensus. The gods, who were inclined to cooperate with Bane, issued an oracle to their own temple, which made it clear that the heretic Will Needham could be eliminated at any cost.
It has to be said that religious belief is one of the most troublesome and thorny rights and wrongs in the world, and in addition to the regular disputes over national interests, historical grievances, and border territorial disputes, religious contradictions are also the causes of conflicts that cannot be ignored.
Even if the miracles of the old world are not visible, and everyone says that there is no basis, it all depends on who boasts of more powerful kung fu and more shameless missionary methods, and when it comes to religious wars, it is still a sharp social problem that can knock people's heads out of the dog's head. When it comes to the new world of the manifestation of the true gods, it is only necessary for the gods to give an order, and the number of fanatical believers who are willing to give up their lives is not too large, especially those priests in the temple, who have been operating for thousands of years, and have accumulated considerable wealth and connections.
In the past few years, although Luo Zhengdao has never treated the temple forces very much, he has not regarded them as a real threat, and most of the time he has a respectful attitude.
From the heart, Luo Zhengdao belongs to the kind of relatively standard secular ruler, with almost no religious enthusiasm, and will not take the initiative to interfere with people's religious beliefs, and the enemy of the human camp is mainly the Second Goblin Empire. Now, the attitude of the gods has suddenly changed, and many neutrals have become his enemies overnight, how can Luo Zhengdao not feel a headache? In fact, even more trouble is yet to come! Even in Luo Zhengdao's territory and within the army, there was no shortage of believers with hostile gods, did he want him to hunt down and kill all of them?
The grim reality is obvious, any simple and crude one-size-fits-all approach must have huge drawbacks and controversies, the positive effect may not be good, the negative effect must be very bad, but it is not okay to leave it alone, that is the same as sleeping in a timed explosion. What's the difference next to the bullet?
It's not a good idea to appease rape, and one day there will be guys who can't think of it, rushing over with a body of stone pine powder, shouting for the martyrdom of the holy war and blowing themselves up, these fanatical believers can definitely do this kind of thing.
It's wrong to kill all those believers, and it won't be possible to let them go or kill them, like most of the terrorists in the old world have religious backings. Jing, Luo Zhengdao finally realized how difficult it is for the bigwigs who were once ridiculed by him to do, you can't just kill them one by one because of their different beliefs! But if you don't kill them, then you can't say who will die later, which is a painful choice that makes people in a dilemma.
In this matter, the Second Goblin Empire has set a good example for Luo Zhengdao, and for those troublemakers who cannot be killed and cannot be left unchecked, they can be stuffed into concentration camps and strictly guarded, and they will be isolated and harmless. At the specific operational level, Luo Zhengdao did not necessarily have to be as bad as a goblin, but for him, it was the best way to control the risk factors as soon as possible
"Go in, don't talk nonsense!"
The soldiers in charge of the escort were shouting, pushing, and behaving rudely along the way, and the believers who had lost their personal freedom could not complain about anything, knowing that they were paying the price for their faith.
In the new world, such a true God appears on the back. Under these circumstances, the use of any coercive method to ask believers to convert is an extremely strict act of blasphemy. Believers who are not firm in their beliefs can be shaken by themselves, and whoever dares to force them to change their faith will undoubtedly commit the top taboo, and Luo Zhengdao does not expect these believers who are hostile to the gods to be able to repent, and preferential measures or something can be exempted from talking.
Around the same time, Qiongzhou and Wake Reef launched a large-scale religious purification campaign, and the first step in the review of the local residents was to register their faith, concealing their beliefs as blasphemy in the new world, but there was no need to worry about someone lying about it, unless the god he believed in was himself a priest of fraud and lies. The second step is to persuade them to leave, if those believers who are hostile to the gods are willing to walk automatically to avoid the intensification of conflicts, Luo Zhengdao will not have to be a bad person, and it is also a good ending for everyone to get together and disperse. The third step is compulsory detention, and those who admit that they believe in hostile gods and refuse to leave the Kingdom of Light, have no choice but to be sorry, and they will drive you to stay in the concentration camp, and when the dispute will be settled, when will you come out again!
Assuming that the ordinary inhabitants had the right to come and go freely, the only way for the cultists of the hostile gods screened out of the army was to be sent to concentration camps and imprisoned. They know too much inside information, and although Luo Zhengdao feels unfair to these subordinates who have followed him for many years, it is better to let them lose their freedom than lose their lives.
At the beginning, the Sage who descended in the main material realm and was ready to kill with one blow was destroyed by Luo Zhengdao's incomparably accurate three shots, and it became a laughing stock afterwards.
The lessons from the past are not far away, considering this, there are many gods who are hostile to Luo Zhengdao, but not a single fool who is willing to follow in the footsteps of Ban N and risk becoming the laughing stock of the new generation has appeared. It was not the gods on high who took the lead, but their Orders and Temples in the New World.
Originally purely religious organizations used to spread the faith, priests and priests gathered ordinary people to preach and organize prayers, and over time, temples also had independent armed and logistical organizations, and these large and small orders could be regarded as small and medium-sized countries except that they did not have their own territory. Paladins are the foundation of the temple's force, whether it is to quell a demonic disaster or deal with the scourge of supernatural forces, the paladin can always be seen in these events. Now, the gods are going to wage a holy war against the heresy of Will Needham, as the sword and shield of the gods in the world, the paladins are very conscious to rush to the front line, and the first batch of warships belonging to the knights gathered in the sea of stars and launched an attack on Qiongzhou.
The navy is a highly specialized branch of the military, and a group of mud-legged men can set off a storm on land. chaos, and even the overthrow of a powerful empire, this experience cannot be replicated in the navy.
Victory or defeat at sea depends on the organizational ability and training level of the navy, especially the performance of weapons and equipment, and most of the paladins use merchant ships to get around. To say the fire of the old world. The spear dragoons are a group of infantry on horseback, so these paladins in the New World are at best cavalry on ships, and their clumsy naval combat skills are vulnerable to the battle-hardened navy of the Kingdom of Light. Without waiting for a chance to confront the heretic and rebuke him for blasphemy, the paladins who had sunk their cars were captured alive by the fishing nets and hooks that had been cast and sent to the prisoner of war camp.
