Volume IV, 149: Everyone's Choice
"How could this be!"
Peter Pan muttered to himself, just in time to see the image above the altar from his vantage point. There was no Saint Peter in it, only two of the Seven Apostles holding the Holy Cross with their hands together, and combined with what Yucente said, he had fully understood what the ultimate secret of the so-called Church had been hiding.
"It turns out that the existence of the Anglican is the biggest joke, and we are the tragedy after the extension of this joke, hehehe"
Suddenly, Peter Pan stretched out his hand and pointed to the position above him, and laughed violently. That hoarse gesture not only made Scarlett secretly cry, but also made everyone pay attention to the truth above their heads.
"As you can see now, even for the sake of the overall interests of the entire human race, so as not to plunge the Holy Light Sect, which was the backbone of the defense against the aliens at that time, from falling into turmoil, so that the aliens who had been greatly injured could take the opportunity to recover, the Seven Apostles saved the face of Saint Peter. But there is still a huge resentment in my heart, and when I was thinking about the construction of the forbidden art, [God Purifying Demons], I used these pictures to present at the last moment. ”
"There is no Saint Peter, there is no Church propaganda, it is Peter who braved the danger to enter Staple, which was the center of darkness at the time, to expand the [Land of the Sage], and there is only one of the greatest traitors who intends to steal the [Holy Cross] in the most difficult time for mankind to go to hell, and the only true heroes are the Seven Apostles."
Under the vicissitudes of Yucente's voice, everyone slowly understood what the truth of history really looked like.
At that time, three apostles affiliated with the Cult of Light discovered Peter's scheme. But with Peter's status and prestige in the church at that time, they could not convince others that Peter was a traitor who planned to go to hell, and if it was exposed, it would make Peter strike first.
Therefore, these three men contacted four trusted and powerful apostles outside the church and secretly followed. And after Peter actually stole the Holy Cross on the way to the Staple region, Brian, who had been monitoring him with a magic crystal ball, found out and notified the others. ”
"At that time, the Seven Apostles knew very well how much huge force the Aliens would send to respond in order to obtain the greatest support that the Holy Light Sect could hold on to this day. But. No one flinched. Anyone can think of it. Once the Holy Light Cult loses this holy artifact, the already worse human situation will be so bad that there is almost no chance of turning the tables around, so they must stop this plot by Peter and the aliens. ”
"I have to say. These seven, who grew up in the three hundred years of the Black Death, are the true essence of humanity. Each of them is a person of great intelligence and decisiveness. In this most difficult situation, they did not give up hope, and even had bigger intentions. They came up with a crazy plan. Take advantage of the opportunity of those aliens to take the initiative to bring the Holy Cross back to Staple and turn the tide of humanity's growing disillusionment in one fell swoop. ”
"Using the Azure Mage's Dimensional Shuttle Spear, six of them reached the place where they would pass one step ahead of schedule, and under the cover of Peter Pan's ancestor's abilities, they hid underground. Iztok, who remained behind, began to contact some witchers who were willing to believe in him unconditionally, and together they marched towards Staple, who was then in the center of darkness, with a determination to die. ”
"Then, while the two sides finished trading and returned to the inner area of Staple and had completely relaxed their vigilance, the first six people launched a surprise attack."
"The five of them faced the powerful Peter, who had just been transformed into a devil and had not yet adapted to his body full of negative energy, so his strength was greatly reduced, and he died soon under their siege. The rabbi used the [Marked Pupil] and the [Sun-changing Hand] to steal back the [Holy Cross] that the aliens had just arrived. ”
"Next is the part you see, one of the three members of the Holy Light Cult unleashed the power of the Holy Cross with a spirit of sacrifice in order to save humanity from the brink of extinction, while the remaining four followed the demon hunters brought by Iztok to launch a prelude to a human counterattack against the aliens in the Staple region."
"But the ridiculous thing is that the Seven Apostles never imagined that the efforts they had made for mankind would one day bring such a profound disaster to their descendants, not only did they never know the magnificent exploits of their ancestors, but they also had to be fostered in other people's homes since they were young, and even faced the fate of being killed in the last place."
Yucente laughed as violently as Peter Pan when he said the most.
However, the feeling of exuberance in it sounds particularly sad to others.
They could never have imagined that the truth of history could be so cruel and disappointing.
Those heroes who really put all their efforts and used their sweat, blood, life and honor to carry the hope of mankind, one day actually faced the fate of being abandoned by those they saved. And those who spare their lives and do nothing can enjoy the fruits of victory, not only can they successfully save their status and lives, but also take advantage of this opportunity to turn the corner and gain greater power. Even the most rebellious ones forgot the exploits and dedication of these heroes, and worried about whether their descendants would be resentful of them after learning the truth, and directly killed them on rebellious trumped-up charges.
At this moment, many people have a feeling of confusion, thinking that human beings are completely hopeless? How shameless do you have to be to do such an ungrateful thing? And what hits their faith the most is that after doing such an ungrateful thing, those guys can live better.
These people can't help but wonder if the result of their efforts to protect outsiders will one day be forgotten by them, abandoned by them, and taken as a sin by those who enjoy the fruits of their efforts but do nothing, and blame them on the people they want to really protect.
Looking at the people who were in the same place as them, at this moment, many people felt a change in the atmosphere, and the firm determination that they had followed was slowly becoming weaker.
What was happening in front of them made them feel that the hope they had left behind would be more frightening and powerless than despair.
Compared to the changes on many witchers' faces, Fredlin's smile grew more confident.
That's one of the purposes of its layout.
As long as Yucente told the truth about the past, he could deal a heavy blow to the determination of these witchers to resist. And if these people on the scene spread it again, it can quickly spread out of the world, and even the entire world, thereby weakening the influence of the church and reducing the strength of human resistance. This is the result of the difference in objects, and if it is said by the outliers, it will only be regarded as a lie. However, a legendary demon hunter [Bloody Hand Man Slayer] personally explained it, but it will undoubtedly make everyone believe it.
"But even if you want to let them go, you definitely need to be willing, the kind of letting go that is too obvious will only be seen as the purpose."
Fredlin was already thinking about what kind of rhetoric would make some people give up resistance. Persuading this kind of thing, in the end there is not much to do in his capacity, and the business is not skilled.
At this time, it is the turn of our spiritual mentor Brother Chen, who likes to do tireless things to teach (destroy) people.
"But this is human beings, contradictory creatures, whose good thoughts can give everything for those who truly love, and evil thoughts in their hearts can kill anyone who might touch them, even those who have helped them, for their own selfish desires."
Brother Chen, who was hiding outside the door, took advantage of the stalemate of the change of power at this moment, and had already begun to teach these demon hunters how to recognize themselves and not be confused by those hypocritical justices with his magnetic voice.
"So, please don't be confused, this is your own, when you are really faced with the need to make these choices, you will also show this contradictory characteristic, whether it is for the good thoughts in your heart to persevere, or simply throw yourself into evil, do not resist, please before choosing, abandon those ideas that have been instilled by others, and first see your own heart."
"Are you trying to persuade us to surrender?" Someone asked in hindsight.
"Of course not, how can you say that, friend, the way you think about things is fundamentally wrong, and your words are too arbitrary." (To be continued......)
