The news of Chen Shouyi's killing of the Lord of Lightning was like a stone thrown from a calm lake, rapidly spreading and fermenting in a short period of time.

It extends to the Rising Sun in the east, to the European Union in the west, to Lucy in the north, to the West India in the south, and even to those occupied areas.

The whole world shook like a magnitude nine earthquake,

But some rejoiced and ecstatic, while others trembled and were terrified.

At this moment.

The Holy Alliance, the mood is not very good, or heavy.

This is the human kingdom of the Lord of Lightning, not only the United States, but also the entire North and South America, with a land area of 42 million square kilometers, in a sense, the largest kingdom ever built.

Newport City.

This once bustling international metropolis and the world's financial center has rapidly become dilapidated in the past year, and it has never returned to its former prosperity.

The weather was gray, the air was filled with an oppressive and sad atmosphere, there were faint gunshots and cries, and countless policemen and soldiers dressed in black and carrying the emblem of the god of lightning patrolled the streets in full armor, with solemn expressions.

Since the night of the incident, Xingang City has been under full martial law and has entered a state of first-level combat readiness, and all citizens have been strictly ordered not to go out, otherwise they will be killed.

James exhaled and motioned to his young partner, "Smoke a cigarette." ”

Hawke nodded.

The two walked to the corner, James took out a cigarette and threw one over, lit the cigarette and took a deep breath, exhaling the thick smoke.

No one spoke, everyone silently thought about their thoughts.

James understands, too.

In the past year, with faith as the key link, whistleblowing is rampant, spies are everywhere, cruel officials and torture are daunting, society has become more and more repressive, people have become indifferent and guarded, and more than a dozen unbelievers have been arrested or killed on the spot by his hands.

Although he also knows that many people are innocent.

Sometimes an unintentional remark, a single negligence, is evidence of blasphemy.

It's just that as a policeman, he can't help himself at all, and he can't even have the slightest sympathy, maybe in the next second, he will be the one who is arrested, and the informant is the person around him.

Feeling that the atmosphere was oppressive and a little uncomfortable, James spat out a puff of smoke rings and broke the silence:

"I heard you have a girlfriend?"

"Divided!" said Hawke, reticently.

"Divided?" said James.

"She's just a shallow faith, she doesn't have much faith at all, and it's better to be separated sooner than to be sent to prison by me in the end. Hawke glanced at him, was silent for a moment, and spoke.

James patted him on the shoulder and said, "That's good, as a police officer, the family issue is the most taboo, you must be strict with yourself, this time ...... All the more so. ”

Hawke nodded, confused.

He had also sensed that a huge storm was brewing in the seemingly calm Holy Alliance Nation.

The Lord of Lightning has fallen, how can nothing happen, this incident has led to the complete collapse of the foundation of the Holy Alliance State-Faith, and the priests can ascend to the throne, relying on the divine right of God, and the believers obey.

Soldiers can unite as one and obey orders, relying on faith in the "Lord" and fighting for the Lord.

But when the gods of faith fall.

The foundation that was originally condensed into one strand no longer exists.

......

However, none of this is their business, they are just petty policemen, just eating for a living.

Soon after the fall, they were notified to return to work, the only difference was that they changed their uniforms, after all, no matter how society changes, they are still necessary for experienced policemen.

It's just that it is foreseeable that in the coming period, the social atmosphere will become extremely depressing, and they will become more busy.

At this time, there was a gunfire in the distance:

"There's a situation!" said Hawk.

"Don't care, it's none of our business, we just need to maintain law and order. James gestured to the soldiers in the distance and said.

The two looked at each other and suddenly smiled.

For some reason, Hawke suddenly felt a long-lost lightness, as if a heavy boulder had been removed from his chest, and everything around him became brighter.

Fuck the faith,

Fuck the Lord of Lightning,

Lao Tzu is a faithless person!

......

Hwaseong, the capital of the Holy Alliance.

In a magnificent cathedral chamber built this year, thousands of priests from various dioceses gathered to argue fiercely.

Everyone's face was agitated, excited, angry, mixed with sadness, dazedness, and unease.

The fall of the Lord of Lightning made them feel as if the sky had fallen, but they were more worried about their situation.

Just a dozen hours ago, they were still excited about the arrival of the Lord of Lightning, planning what rewards they would receive after the unification of the world, and discussing how beautiful the whole world would become.

However, what I didn't expect at all was that it was a bolt from the blue.

A nightmare that I don't want to remember.

It's over, it's all over.

"Quiet and ......quiet" On the rostrum, the sect leader shouted a few times to no avail, and suddenly said angrily: "Shut up the fuck." ”

It was an old white man with a crown on his head, silver hair, meticulously combed, he puffed out blue bags under his eyes, and glanced majestically, and the conference room suddenly fell silent:

"It's all a bunch of rubbish!"

"The sky is not yet falling, which diocese is there a rebellion now? We still have the nuclear bomb, we still have the army, they are one with us, and they are even part of us. ”

Yes, many people gradually came back to their senses and settled down in their hearts.

In the large-scale clean-up of the army in recent years, who can be in the position is spotless, pure and immaculate, everyone is their own people, vested interests.

As long as the army is not chaotic.

Even if the country is in chaos, it is temporary.

Moreover, North and South America and the world island are separated by a sea, this is a chosen place, with the current level of science and technology of human countries, who can enter it?

What's more, the Holy Alliance is not muddy.

Even if there is no "Lord", they are the overlords of the world.

......

The meeting ended quickly.

The head of the sect stood up and walked quickly out of the conference room for another meeting.

There are the main generals of the Holy Alliance.

Don't look at his confident face in the previous meeting, everything is under control, but in fact, he knows better than anyone else that the situation is now dangerous, and it is not an exaggeration to walk a tightrope.

How did the former Lucy Kingdom disintegrate?

And now the situation of the Holy Alliance is a hundred, a thousand times more severe than it was then.

This is a collapse of faith!

It is also the collapse of popular morale.

One is not good, and the entire Holy Alliance State will be torn apart overnight, and even warlords will fight.

At that time, as the head of the sect, and those priests who were once high, it would be difficult for him to survive.

ps: After a chapter is written, after eating, there is another chapter in the evening.
