Chapter 1066: The Player Who Was Revealed
Unconsciously, the player's existence is no secret to the high-level forces of the aborigines, such as the emperor Zhao Ji, the real master of the Song Empire, and the leaders of several transcendent forces in the country, such as the Witch King, such as the gods of the Old World, the high-level of the church, and a large number of real power electors.
Paris, the most prosperous city before the division of the Gallic Empire, the capital, the pride of the civilization of the Old World, has now been reduced to ruins, and a fire of natural and man-made disasters has completely destroyed the city.
The entire Gallic Empire was divided into Upper Gaul and Lower Gaul, rebelling against the rule of the aristocracy, and the mortals oppressed by the transcendent used Paris as their base and lived like rats in a labyrinth of ruins.
In the vast expanse of Gaul, the unnamed forces under the banner of the rebel army did the rest, and these transcendents of unknown origin tore a large piece of land from the corpses of the Gallic Empire and called themselves Lower Gaul.
Maximilian was the leading big brother who fired the first shot in Paris, but with the traditional forces gathered in the Upper Gaul Empire overwhelmed the territory, he could only hide in the ruins of Grand Paris to survive.
He didn't know what kind of forces were playing under the guise of Lower Gaul, but the establishment of Lower Gaul did relieve the pressure on him and the rebels to a certain extent.
Of course, Lower Gaul also shared a lot of pressure for the Europa Empire, as the first power in the Old Continent, the Gaul Empire had a military force to match, not to mention a million soldiers.
And now, in the face of pressure from Lower Gaul, Chaos, and the Roman Empire, it can only symbolically send tens of thousands of troops to the borders of the Europa Empire.
"This is a conspiracy, this is the conspiracy of those players!" Emperor of the Gauls, Philip I, looked gloomily at his 'new map', which had been reduced by a third: "These players are just as greedy as my nobles, hungry for land and more supernatural power. ”
"That's right, Your Majesty, they are all conspirators, and they are all order breakers who plot to overthrow your stable rule." A reverend of Workin, who was almost more flamboyant than Philip I, smiled and added, "But they also bring new opportunities and knowledge, and the Temple of Fortune is willing to lend you enough wealth to arm a new army if you wish." ”
"Loans?" Philip I savored the meaning behind the word: "Will you lend me money to form an army that can be formed without borrowing the transcendental, and has no drawbacks other than the intimidating ones?" ”
"Low-interest loans!" "Very low interest, and if your treasury is a little empty, oh, forgive me for the wording, I mean we're open to other types of repayment, such as enchanted items, land, knighthoods, tax rights, and so on. ”
"Can it defeat the rebels?" Philip I didn't bring his chancellor of the exchequer, but he wrote them down, and planned to inquire later, because the financial traps of the Church of Woking had been pitting many people lately, and he felt that he had better be careful.
But the other party's proposal, he was really tempted, an army that was completely commanded by the royal family, composed of mortals, and was no different from ordinary peasants without logistics, but could threaten extraordinary strength, was simply a gift from heaven to the emperors!
If he had such a team twenty years ago, maybe those powerful nobles would be almost dead now, right?
"Of course, we are also willing to raise this army for you completely free of charge, and provide all the consumption within ten years, whether it is materials or money, all contracted by the Temple of Wealth!" Pastor Wauching made a proposal that made Philip I's heart skip a beat.
"What am I going to give?" Philip I forced himself to calm down and asked, "It can't be that Lady Wauking suddenly falls in love with me, right?" ”
"Of course we have strings attached, my lord." The priest of the Church of Waukine smiled and said to Philip I, "Lady Wauking wants the Gallic Empire to expel all players from the territory, and when the time is right, publicly support the Church of Waukin, declaring the Cult of Morning Light illegal. ”
Philip I felt the temperature around him drop, as if he could see the white breath he exhaled: "There is a dispute within the church, and our secular forces are not good at interfering, I'm afraid I can only refuse Ms. Workin's kindness." ”
"The Lord of the Dawn has become the only legitimate religion in the Europa Empire, and with your ingenuity, you will surely understand the problems facing the Church." Pastor Workin said step by step, "Those visitors from other worlds use our world as a playground, is this what you want to see?" ”
"No, I don't understand you, Pastor, and that's all for today." Philip I forcibly ended the conversation and hurriedly left the conference room.
Similar conversations appeared in the countries of the Old World at the same time, as if overnight, the Lord of Dawn became an outlier within the Church, and the Church of Dawn did not make any statement, and the doors of the Dawn Temples were still open to all believers who came to pray, including the three temples in the Europa Empire.
At the same time, the conflict between the Church of Dawn and its legendary paladin Stannis has become public, and a crusade of fourteen high-ranking professionals, led by an angel, has laid siege to Stannis's castle.
As a result, the veteran legendary powerhouse Stannis wiped out the team at the cost of serious injuries, and then disappeared with his daughter.
Under the covert influence of the Church of Woching, the player's secret is widely spread in the Old World, and countless aboriginal forces are secretly attacking the player, some are interested in the world behind the player, and some are cracking the secret of the player's resurrection.
Throughout the Old Continent, almost everyone in the EU is in danger, and those freelance players who were originally outside the borders of the Europa Empire have to survive or hide their player identities, and not all players have the power to protect themselves.
Kyle Mohan also had an internal discussion about the existence of the player, and the core of the discussion was whether the new apprentice Xu Yichen was a so-called player.
"It's hard to tell them apart, but it is undeniable that Xu Yichen's progress is far faster than we imagined, which is very in line with the characteristics of players summarized so far." Old Kane sat in a chair carved with a griffon's head: "But there's no denying that he's firmly on the anti-chaos front, and I don't think he's a player or not doesn't affect his position as a demon hunter." ”
"But he does have his own beliefs." Gonze Aragorn, who had become more mature, said slowly: "I can see that he is firm in his heart, and the rules of Kellmohan cannot affect him. ”
