The cause of the incident was a pamphlet that Xu Kai handed to Chen Yuan.
It's about the size of a palm, a few millimeters thick, and it's a thin one.
However, after Chen Yuan took the booklet, he only glanced at the cover, but his face sank instantly.
Because on the cover, there are a few large letters written "New World Church Handbook". There is also a line in small print that reads, "What is the truth of the last days?" Where is the path to human salvation? Here, you'll find the answers. Join the New World Church, and we can get through this together! β
Don't look at anything else, just looking at the words "New World Teaching", Chen Yuan twitched his cheeks.
How could he not know the infamous "New World Religion" in the previous life!
This is a complete cult organization!
They preach that the end of the world is the return of demons and that the gods have mercy on the world, but only by joining them can they be saved. He also accused the leaders of some settlements of being the embodiment of demons, and called on believers to rebel. This was attractive to the survivors who were being oppressed by some of the settlements at the time.
At the same time, under the guise of helping the poor, relieving the suffering, and surviving the last days together, the New World Church also gave a little favor to the poor, attracting a large number of struggling survivors in the last days to join.
In fact, he secretly gathered a group of thugs to do the business of buying and selling human beings, robbing, expropriating and assassinating. They even staged coups d'Γ©tat and provoked wars. Almost no evil is done.
Once the believers join the New World Church, they will control and force the believers to hand over their belongings, sacrifice their children, wives and concubines for the pleasure of the upper class through inducements, threats, intimidation, and even new drugs, and at the same time coerce the followers to do things for them.
If anyone dares to try to quit the New World Church, then the next day, he and his family will die inexplicably and tragically. And the New World Church will stand up and say to other believers at this time: Look! This is the end of not being firm in will, quitting the Cult of God, and the Father has sent down punishment.
In fact, in the previous life, Chen Yuan and Zhang Fatzi almost joined this organization.
However, at that time, Chen Yuan faintly felt that there were some problems. They came all the way from the south and knew that no one in this world except your parents would give you unlimited love for no reason. So in the end, the two did not choose to join the New World Church.
It wasn't until the 16th year of the last century that the dark side of the New World Church was finally exposed, and everyone saw its ugly face.
As a result, overnight, the New World Church became a rat crossing the street in many of the mainland, and everyone shouted and beat it. The leaders of many settlements also realized the threat of the New World Church, and they listed the New World Church as a (cult) organization and prepared to ban it.
However, at this time, after more than ten years of development, the New World Church has become very powerful.
Not only did they effectively control several settlements of various sizes, the largest of which had a population of more than 300,000, but they also established powerful religious regimes.
In addition, in many other settlements, there are also cathars of varying sizes and strength.
Therefore, after the scandal was shaken out, the New World Church, which was resisted by the land, simply sent troops directly in anger and destroyed several small and medium-sized settlements around them in the name of jihad.
In other settlements, the New World Church's cathars also openly rebelled against the seizure of the settlements, and for a time there were civil unrest in many settlements in the Huaxia area. The war has spread widely.
In some places, the New World Church's apologists were even stronger than the official forces in the settlements.
For example, this is the case in Chen Yuan's settlement, where the officials and troops were beaten back and the city lord's mansion was almost breached.
However, at that time, the reputation of the New World Church was almost rotten. No one among the common people wanted to live under the rule of the New World. If the New World Church's apologists win, then they will also suffer.
Mercenary groups and ordinary people joined the battle. With their own efforts, they were able to extinguish the apologists of the New World Church. Rao was like this, and the losses in each gathering place at that time were also very large, and the impact was very deep.
Afterwards, no one dared to continue to do anything to the settlements controlled by the New World Sect. Their strength is just too strong.
It is said that the ordinary survivors of these settlements live a life of water and fire. They have no property, no freedom, and even their own lives are divinely deserved, almost slaves.

Chen Yuan flipped through the manual casually, and asked solemnly: "Old Xu, where did you get this booklet?" β
Xu Kai said: "This is what one of our spies got it. Yesterday when he was attending a private party, someone very enthusiastically recommended this New World Church to him and invited him to join it. Our agent felt that something was wrong, so he pretended to be interested and continued to talk to them. But then he reported the matter to the public. I also felt that there was a problem, so I asked him to continue to contact them. Sure enough, today he was taken to a secret assembly, joined the New World Church, and got the manual. β
He said: "I read this booklet, and it is very problematic. So I think this New World Church may be a (cult) organization, so should you investigate it deeply? β
Chen Yuan nodded in affirmation: "Well done!" This new world teaches that it is not possible, but that there must be something wrong with it. A normal religion would not write such a book that is obviously inducing and deceptive. β
He asked, "How much information do we know about this New World Sect so far?" β
Xu Kai shook his head and said, "Not much." Most of them are their one-sided words. β
He said: "The few people who introduced our spies to the New World Sect said that the New World Sect is a divine religion that exists to save the lives of the world. Their patriarch is actually the Son of the Father, who has supreme power. He came into this world because Heavenly Father had mercy on His followers and sent Him to teach and save everyone. And the establishment of this New World Church is also beneficial to Heavenly Father. β
Chen Yuan snorted coldly and said, "Ridiculous! Why didn't he say he was the Father! At the same time, he also said vaguely in a very low voice: "A natural ability is just a ghost, pretending to be a ghost!" β
Yes, the patriarch of this New World Sect, in the previous life, was later confirmed to be a natural ability, and his strength was indeed terrifying, and he ranked second in the Huaxia combat power list. And the masters under him are like clouds, and the three major settlements in Ji Province were united at the beginning, and a group of elite soldiers and strong generals were sent to his lair to assassinate him. But not only did it not succeed, but the people sent out by the three families were all killed.
However, these are not suitable to tell Xu Kai that they know for the time being.
