1253 History is the hardware foundation of the repeater and the Federation
"The gods of the trade winds and the gods of law have come into contact with us, and like the goddesses of life and nature, they have the name of dividing wills, but we all know that these are just two gods beginning to prepare. β
"The gods saw the collapse of the empire as a great opportunity, and their church could finally be freed from the empire. The gods of war were so overjoyed that even the gods of war were silent, and they saw this civil war as a great opportunity to develop their followers. β
On the edge of the New World, an empty island hangs high above a shattered floating land, and the white gold glows brightly.
In the white jade spire in the center of the island, Cynthia, the goddess of liberty, said to Hathaway, who had just returned from Temple Mountain, "This is not good, the war has caused mortals to suffer great disasters again, and the church has caused mortals to lose their soul freedom again. β
"In the old days, there was only one Loyal Divine Court, and in the future, there will be countless Loyal Divine Courts. β
"Theresia ushered in a new era, I mean, at least in the beginning, so that mortals would no longer be enslaved by the Church. Although this achievement was abandoned at a later stage, we cannot turn a blind eye. β
Hathaway dodged the question, asking, "Now that we have more and more gods on our side, I am more and more worried about our cooperation. β
"Are you really sure you want to turn the Aurora into your kingdom? Don't forget that this is a war fortress, and while other gods also build war fortresses and send clones to preside over them, the Aurora is both a flagship and a vanguard. β
"Once we fail, we have no way back. β
Cynthia is just a projection, and her body remains in the Aurora Star, taking the place of the Goddess of Aurora, ready to format the Aurora Star and become the kingdom of Liberty that houses her body.
The "we" in Hathaway's mouth includes the goddesses of freedom, commerce, life, and nature, as well as more than 20 gods such as the god of war, the god of war, tyranny, and conspiracy. These gods have different paths and conflicts, but they are united in their opposition to the destruction of the Goddess of Order and the rule of the Crimson Lady.
The former is Richie's goddess, and the latter's will comes from Richie's wife, Theresia, and Hathaway privately calls her group "NPC camp". There's nothing wrong with that, Richie Prell.
In the Battle of the New World, the gods teamed up to defeat Taksis and Taos, and although it was Lady Crimson and her Red League who were in charge, Cynthia took out Rana at a critical moment and became the new Lady of Liberty, thus gaining leadership status in this faction.
This leader is only in terms of fame, and if it is to live up to the name, Cynthia's strength is difficult to match.
Cynthia is just a weak god, she hasn't even built a kingdom of gods, and is essentially close to a crimson supergod.
The gods already have a certain understanding of the Crimson Super God, these new age gods, although their souls and bodies are equally immortal, have no independence, and the path is attached to the Crimson Lady, which is equivalent to the Crimson Lady's subordinate gods.
None of them possessed the "will-splitting" nature of the gods, let alone the supplicators, not even their respective angels.
Even if their souls and bodies are immortal, as long as they suffer more than the intensity they can bear, they cannot be reborn by their clones and hidden wills.
Ussos, the god of war, once boasted that Catherine, the crimson god of war, was nothing more than a weak newborn god. If you don't rely on equipment, he who has powerful divine power in his heyday will turn into ashes in a single look, and it will be completely annihilated, and it will never be reborn.
The goddesses of commerce and the gods of war do not take this as a lie, and in their judgment it is indeed true.
The problem is that it's impossible for the Crimson Supergod not to carry gear, and Ursos can't be a powerful god again.
Cynthia, though not a god, is as fragile as the Crimson Supergod, which is why the gods are happy to see him and Hathaway negotiate with the Crimson Camp on behalf of the "NPC Camp", and even have the Aurora Star alone.
Cynthia sighed: "It's because there is no way back that we can't sit idly by and ignore the current situation." β
Hathaway was silent for a moment, then asked, "Richie...... No, I mean the Red Union song, you know. β
Cynthia smiled slightly: "Of course, I think it is quite suitable for us to remove some of these extreme details." β
Hathaway shook her head: "Those details are the core of the Crimson faith, and they can make mortals abandon individual freedom and put the collective at the forefront by opposing those details." β
The silver eyes flashed with the brilliance of memory, and she said faintly: "Actually, I have a deeper impression of another song, and when I heard that song for the first time, I also realized for the first time that I was not the same traveler as Li Qi." β
"In retrospect, that song was actually more suitable......"
"Tear down that tower......"
Blinking back her scattered thoughts, Hathaway said resolutely: "You're right, we have no way out, so we can't hesitate to look ahead." β
Cynthia asked expectantly, "How?"
Hathaway sneered, "Although Rana almost killed me, his legacy is very rich, especially the legendary network. β
Cynthia suddenly said: "Through the legendary network, unleash mortals and stop the war?"
Hathaway shook her head: "Not only that, but to minimize the impact of the collapse of the empire, in addition to cleaning up those reactionaries who are rising against the tide as soon as possible, we must also help the gods develop their followers." β
"Now that they are stirring up the civil war, don't they think that the only way to develop believers is to rely on the church?"
"If our network of legends allows the gods to gain believers without going through the church, why bother with them?"
"Find spokesmen, establish churches, build idols or artifacts, and finally form effective interactions with mortals...... Closed loop, not only is the power of faith very depleted, but also easy to be distorted divine will, from the Divine Court of Loyalty to the Holy See of Order, the example is there. β
"This model is outdated, and as long as we come up with a new model that is cheaper and more effective, the gods have no reason to refuse. β
"The gods can see that they no longer have to rely on the church, and they only need a small number of advocates and inspectors to easily gain believers. β
Cynthia still had questions: "I probably understand, but relying solely on our legendary network, will it make the gods think that we will monopolize the channels for the gods to reach mortals, so they refuse to participate?"
Hathaway waved her hand and said, "We don't have a monopoly, we just build on the legendary network and come up with a technology...... Standard. As long as the gods build their own network of gods according to this set of standards, and then merge into a joint network like the empire built the joint communication tower, so that the gods can reach all mortals. β
The corners of her mouth curled slightly, and she continued: "Of course, as the proposer of technical standards, we are entitled to some ...... License fees. β
Cynthia hesitated: "Hathaway, do you believe in freedom, or do you believe in Elsa?"
"It's the wages of labor!"
Hathaway said unhappily: "Mental work is also labor! This is also the basis of freedom!"
Cynthia smiled: "How do you charge the license fee? 500,000?"
Hathaway roared: "Cynthiaββ!"
..................
On the third day of Catherine and Leia's taking Jon's flesh and blood, the Fifth Anniversary of the Fee was still in progress, and Grand Kiri was attending the meeting while watching the shattered Dawning Empire with concern.
In just three days, the situation in East Fein was turned upside down.
The old aristocracy set off a turbulent countercurrent of the times, and at first glance it seems that they have done what the goddess of order wanted to do: to return history to the year 1225 of the Fourth Age.
In the realms of Sachiton, Alanis, Norton, Redstone, and even Tangus, the nobles who had fallen during the Dawning Empire sprung up, rally around the king and the archduke according to their titles. They made a great deal of noise on the communication network, and the good do-gooders roughly counted that there were thousands of counts alone.
It's not just the tide of public opinion, the most powerful Sachidon has gathered nearly 100,000 horses in the royal capital, hundreds of flying boats, countless magic chariots, and it is said that there are several legends to support it. There have been many clashes with the mage forces led by Simbner, and thousands of people have been killed and wounded.
Although other regions have not gathered such a strong aristocratic force, with the aristocratic castle as the core, there are thousands of aristocratic forces scattered all over the place, and millions ...... It may be that tens of millions of people are in control. So much so that on the territory of the original empire, the azure blue blocks that were still subject to the rule of the empire or controlled by non-aristocratic forces were only one-third of the golden yellow blocks representing aristocratic forces.
Of course, not all regions are in chaos, and the kingdom of Hadron is still as stable as a mountain. The former Prime Minister of the Empire, King Hadron, who had once gone down and returned, still has the prestige, and Kevin Towne, who controls another legion, is both a Hadron and a mortal Theresia, the Dawning Empire and Emperor Jon are not a divine existence to him, if they are gone, they are gone, Hadron is fine.
Previously, the Kingdom of Hadron had maintained close trade ties with the Red Federation through the city of Prel, and the underground branch of the Fergus Communist Party and the adventurer En-Hye were also very active in Hadlang. After the meteorite storm, the Red Union came to the rescue of his neighbors, which also made the relationship between the kingdom and the Red Union even closer. The Red Federation had a comprehensive plan for Hadlang's future, included it in the united front, and the relevant work was in full swing, so it was not affected by the tide of aristocratic counterattacks.
The other area was similarly unchaotic, but unlike the calm Hadlang, the nobles had just made a few waves there, and then they were swallowed up by a bloody storm that suddenly counterattacked.
On the day that Red Union returned Jon's flesh, the Santarim Society, led by Zold, issued a collective declaration, claiming that the existence of the Empire should be decided collectively by all the people of the Empire, and that it was now procedurally illegal for nobles to leave the Empire. Their attempt to organize and rebuild the kingdom of the Duchy was to negate the revolutionary achievements of Theresia and the historical achievements of the Dawning Empire, and to make the people suffer from the two stubbles.
In order to distance themselves from these nobles, the magicians renounced all titles, domains, and subjects, not mentioning that they had long been hired workers in their own workshops.
They then declared that they were at odds with the nobles, and at the same time as the proclamation was issued, a crack team of "workshop guards" and "transport ship pilots" launched a fierce attack on the nobles in Redstone and Norton.
Castles were destroyed and nobles were slaughtered. Because the movement was too fast, those nobles were still squatting in the castle, holding wine glasses and busily looking forward to it through the communication network, and they turned into shredded flesh and smoke in the impact of the power of the magic particle bomb.
In less than a day, more than 300 nobles of the baron and above were uprooted, and the number of victims was estimated to be more than 10,000, including many innocent civilian servants, old and weak women and children.
Such a resolute move has set off a fierce wave of controversy in the communication network and further intensified the situation. The nobles in other places were more resolute, and the nobles who were still waiting and watching also threw themselves into the reactionary camp.
Qi Li's evaluation of this is: "This guy has finally become a character." β
Zold's action is actually a plan that the Red Union has drawn up a long time ago.
If the situation deteriorates further, the Red Union will be ready to take action, with precision strikes and targeted killings. Of course, it won't be as indiscriminate as a magician, and it won't be an amplification that will harm the innocent.
However, the violent subversion of one class against another is a process full of bloodshed, and even if there are many innocent people, it cannot be used to question the justice of the revolution. In this regard, Qili and the Red Union side can only sigh on the other side.
In contrast, Qili was more looking forward to playing a deterrent role, cooling down the chaos, and even eliminating the danger of civil war, but strangely stopped.
The armed forces at the disposal of Rimako were not worth mentioning in front of the Red Federation, but they were enough to deter those reactionary nobles.
But Kerimacko continued to gather strength in the Holy Steps City, ignoring Elanis, who was close to the south, and let Alanis's "Sword of Gronia" Holy Warrior Order snowball, crumpling the nobles and commoners, and tens of thousands of people had already gathered to start building walls and fortresses in the former royal capital of White Jade City, which had been turned into a lake.
Seeing the red-haired girl found by the Order, wearing a golden crown surrounded by the royal family and nobles of Alanis, Kiri sneered, and her heart was filled with a throbbing of hot and cold.
Gronia is just a fake princess, and the nobles of Alanis have been killed a long time ago, otherwise why would Theresia find a child from the countryside to inherit the throne?
They are just bastards, servants, and even hearsay liars, who still regard the kingdom of the past as an ideal, and feel that by joining this trajectory, they can bask in the glory of the past and enjoy the power and wealth of the human master.
This made Qi Li think, didn't the mortals of the earth world, especially those in the west, change from barbarians to civilized people in this way? and then they regarded the East, which had a real civilization and had never been completely cut off, as a barbarian backward.
There were no supernatural powers in the Earth World, and there was no Red Alliance, so they succeeded.
Now these people can only be said to be ...... Dream.
As the meeting progressed to the meeting when the Acting Cardinal made a speech before the election of the new Central Committee, a message jumped into Qili's field of vision, and it dawned on her.
She understood why Rimako hadn't moved......
The Circle Hook has gotten the latest news through the special channel of Temple Mountain, Princess Podina's "Knights of Theresia".
Podina had just attended a high-level meeting of the Reich, a meeting chaired by the Prime Minister and the Minister of Propaganda, which was in fact a break-up meeting.
At the meeting, the Prime Minister announced that the existing Imperial Government would announce the dissolution of the Empire, and that he would personally go down to the field and focus on his media career on Temple Hill as the spokesman of the God of Trade Winds. Of course, this god of the trade winds is not the ontology of the god of order, but only a split will, which should be replaced with a new god name such as "God of Media", and the priesthood will also be adjusted.
As for the situation after the collapse of the empire, the prime minister did not say in detail, only said that the Salvation Alliance would take over the stall and let everyone not bother. Of course, he also advised everyone to throw away things like titles and fiefs and welcome the arrival of a new era.
In the report of the round hook, he finally said: "The news agencies of the Temple Mountain have also received the latest notice, and they are ready to broadcast a super heavy news at night, which will be finalized and completely end the current chaos." β
Even if she didn't know the details, Qi Li understood that Hathaway had not done anything in the past three days, and it should be that the gods were discussing some plan.
For a god who can divide countless ideas, it takes three days to reach an agreement, and it must be a very complex package involving many aspects.
Following the report of the Circle Hook, the Legion Council Staff sent another report stating that the Tower of Babel had detected several active fluctuations in divine power, coming from several existing magic towers and communication towers within the Dawning Empire. These divine power fluctuations are being fused similarly to programming, and appear to be an experiment in the joint networking of the divine powers of the gods on the main plane.
At this point, Hathaway's response plan surfaced, and Strange sighed, "It's finally come to this." β
"The economic base determines the superstructure" is used in this matter, and it becomes "the hardware base determines the software model".
Since the other party is already experimenting with joint networking, it is not difficult to draw conclusions about how to deal with the original Dawning Empire, inferred from this technical basis.
Whether it is the United States or the Commonwealth, from the nobles to the king to the emperor, at least most of the territory of the East Finn Dawn Empire will be completely history. And the mortals living in this land are also the most numerous and highest-quality people in the main plane of Fein.
Except for the Red Union......
Now that the other side has already started to take steps, there is no need to worry too much, and it is time to focus on the major changes and historical mission of the Red Union itself.
Relly listened intently to what Tess had to say.
The crisp Lolita voice said serious and deep words, which in turn would determine what kind of new look Fei Gong would take to lead Chilian to Heaven Mountain and solve the existential crisis in Finn's world.
