The "state" must have a complete organizational structure in order to be able to maintain stability, but the "church" is different. The core of the church is "faith" and "thought", as long as you agree with the same ideology, then even a group of people who can't be beaten can become "parishioners", and when a group of people with the same ideology and ideas gather together, the church is formed.

"Church" is a very general concept. The expansion of a country is achieved by covering more places with its own organizational structure; The expansion of the church exploded on the spot.

If a person suddenly thinks that a certain idea is "reasonable" and agrees with this idea, then he will become a "pan-believer" of this idea; If he is willing to abide by this idea and think and act in unity, then he becomes a true believer; If, on this basis, he is unwilling to go against this idea even if he dies, then he is a fanatic; If he is willing to take the initiative to spread this idea and get more people to agree with it, then he is a pastor. And in this process, the "pastor" may not even have been in contact with other church members, and all the ideas may come from books, or from his own perception of life - it is completely "detonating on the spot"!

Among the Churches of the Six Gods, the Church of the Lord of Shadows is one of the most frequent deities that "explode in place". A thief in the slum thinks that "obscenity is king" and "intrigue is great", then he automatically becomes a pan-believer; Adhering to the policy of "unwavering for a hundred years of obscene development", he became an orthodox believer; insisted on "being obscene until death, and not wasting when he died", and he became a fanatic; The thief began to instill his idea of "obscenity in the royal way" to others, and he became a priest; If one day, he can advance to the transcendental, then there is a high probability that he will receive the "Gift of the Lord of Shadows" and master some abilities such as breath avoidance and shadow stealth.

The "explosion in place" feature of the church allows the church to grow across borders, even across the crystal wall system - for example, among the gamers on Earth, the number of "priests" of the Lord of Shadows is inexplicably large, but this also creates a phenomenon of factions within the church.

The Lord of the Wolf's Mouth didn't know which faction the people who destroyed his fortress before, but the faction that could send twenty shadow assassins in one go would obviously not be a small faction, and they would come to the kingdom en masse, obviously not as simple as "traveling".

Therefore, the lord of the wolf's mouth immediately reported the matter to Grand Duke Igor, who held the post of prime minister in the royal city of Palomya.

The royal city of Palomia, the residence of the Prime Minister.

Grand Duke Igor, who was over half a hundred years old, sat in his office, looking at the magic mirror on the table. In the mechanical magic mirror, the Lord of the Wolf's Mouth is introducing the situation of the Wolf's Mouth Fortress, and the scenery inside the Wolf's Mouth Fortress is played on the screen.

"The gap in this wall was cut by Baron Garton's sword. When Baron Gatun drew his sword, a large amount of magic gathered on the sword, showing a colorful light...... When the Baron of Gatun slashed through the walls with his sword, he stuck his sword in this position...... But now there was only one hole left by the sword, which collapsed of its own accord shortly after Baron Garden's departure......"

Collapsed walls, huge gaps, and sword marks on the ground. Looking at the scene in the picture, Grand Duke Igor's old and mature face showed a solemn look.

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the study.

"Knock knock~"

Grand Duke Igor: "Come in." ”

"Sir, Maester Dorag is here."

"Let him in."

"Yes, sir."

Grand Duke Igor sat up straight. It didn't take long for the study door to be pushed open, and an old man with the smell of books walked in.

"Prime Minister, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Master Dorag, please be seated."

Grand Duke Igor got up from behind his desk, walked to the sofa in front of him, and sat down on one of the sofas, while the old bachelor sat on the sofa opposite Grand Duke Igor.

"Prime Minister, has there been any progress on the promotion of the magic guide technology?" The old bachelor asked enthusiastically.

"It's not that easy. The promotion of agricultural magic equipment will harm the land, and there is a lot of pressure on the side of the Earth Church, both reformists and conservatives have certain opinions on this, and those fundamentalists will not talk about it. If we forcibly promote it, believe it or not, you and I won't see the sun tomorrow? ”

"That'...... What about the promotion of military magic equipment? Although the magic guide weapon has the defect of high cost, it can quickly popularize the army, so that ordinary soldiers can also have the possibility of defeating extraordinary knights, which is extremely important for improving the combat effectiveness of the army. ”

Hearing the words of the bachelor, Grand Duke Igor was silent for a while.

"Master Dorag, it's not as simple as you think. We are a great agricultural country and a labyrinth country, we have an abundant grain production and a wide variety of labyrinth products, and we have a large number of extraordinary powerhouses in our community of folk adventurers. However, there are no crystal veins and mythril veins needed to make magic guide equipment in our country, and the cost of relying only on the output of the labyrinth is too high. ”

"We can import from the Mona Kingdom in the north. Or launch a direct attack, destroy the demons, and return the Northland to the embrace of the kingdom of Palomia! The defects of those demons are very obvious, although they have gained a long lifespan, but they have lost the ability to reproduce, once they lose the demon king, it is one dead, one less. Even if it costs ten or a hundred people in exchange for the life of a demon, it is worth it! As long as the war continues, the final victory will be ours! The old bachelor became fanatical as he spoke, "In this world, all immortals are garbage, and only beings like human beings who can continue to reproduce and reincarnate are the darlings of the gods!" Our lifespan is very short, so we should shine in our short life, we should take the initiative to start a war, sweep those demons into the garbage heap, and become our nourishment! ”

When the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and this is also true in the church. There are 71 denominations of Judaism, 72 denominations of Christianity, and 198 denominations of Greenism...... The Shadow Lords, who also believe in the "obscene royal way", also have a chaotic faction such as the "Thief Faction" and the "Player Faction", and the same is true in the Mother Earth Church.

The old man in front of him is the "reincarnation sect" in the Mother Earth Church. The reincarnation school advocates that "the greatness of life lies in reincarnation", believing that when the old life dies, a new and better life will be born from the corpse of the old life, and war is the catalyst for the evolution of the species - the inferior life will be eliminated in the war, and the excellent life will be tempered and purified in the war.

People who agree with the theory of "reincarnation" have the confidence that they will not be eliminated. In other words, the people of the "reincarnation" are basically elites, so even if Grand Duke Igor is not interested in that shit theory of the "reincarnation", Grand Duke Igor has to deal with this group of crazy people many times.

“…… Master Dorag, I came to you in the hope that you would be able to see this. Grand Duke Igor opened the mirror and replayed the previous scene.

The old bachelor smashed his mouth, had to stop speaking, took a pair of glasses from his pocket, put them on, and focused his attention on the picture in the magic mirror.

The Magic Guide Mirror has started to replay the situation of the Wolf's Mouth Fortress.

Soon, the screen was played. Grand Duke Igor looked at the old bachelor in front of him: "Master Dorag, you are an expert on the situation in the Eastern United Kingdom. So who do you think this 'self-proclaimed' Baron from the Crescent City State is? ”

The old bachelor wiped his glasses and thought for a while: "The magic comes from the heart, and the people who can fight that kind of attack are definitely not those cowards who believe in the Lord of Shadows!" ”

"Twenty shadow assassins." Grand Duke Igor knocked on the table, "If it weren't for the power of the Lord of Shadows, there would be no way to take out so many Shadow Assassins. "If it's one or two shadow stealth assassins, it's not worth paying attention to, but if it's twenty shadow sneaking assassins in one breath, then people have to care about the meaning behind it.

"Isn't there a group of agents in the Kingdom's military intelligence department who are good at stealth?" The old bachelor smiled, "Being able to destroy the city wall with one blow is at least a 'hero' with a treasure, and maybe even a legend." Coupled with twenty shadow assassins as guards, there are really not many such people in this world. ”

"And what do you think he is?"

The old bachelor touched the beard on his chin: "There are many families that can take out twenty shadow assassins to act as guards in one go, and it is not uncommon for heroes to be able to destroy the city wall with one blow, but there are not many who have the power of both at the same time." The Elven Court must have this ability; The old lord of the Crescent City and the dragon lord of Shadow City are both followers of the Lord of Shadows, and there are many Shadow Assassins under him; Although the Red Dragon Queen of Dragon City looks down on the followers of the Lord of Shadows, she also has an intelligence team composed of Shadow Assassins, and destroying the city with one blow is not a difficult task for those Dragonborn. And then there's ...... The Demon King of the Mona Kingdom of the North! ”

Grand Duke Igor squinted his eyes and thought for a moment: "Could it be that team is really from the Crescent City-State?" ”

"Just send someone to ask, and you'll know." The old bachelor grinned, "Those dragonborns in the Elven Royal Court and Dragon City have always been arrogant, and they don't bother to hide their identity and bloodline, just ask them to be sure. The remaining demons of the Crescent City, Shadow City, and Mona Kingdom, no matter which force they come from, will definitely not easily reveal their true identities and purposes. ”

Grand Duke Igor nodded: "Thank you for your assistance, Master Dorag, I think I know what to do." ”
