Before the outbreak of the Great War, Sui Xiong sent a priest to meet with the priest of a noble god. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He didn't want to stage a disgusting drama of "the lower layers of blood flowing, and the upper layers were staggered", but he wanted to inquire about some things before he completely turned his face.

A few...... What happened more than forty years ago.

The place where the two pastors met was a restaurant, quite upscale, with a private room, not large, suitable for five or six friends to eat and drink, or two or three people to talk about something in private.

The priest of Sui Xiong arrived first, and after he entered the door, without saying a word, he cut off the legs of the stools in the room one by one, leaving only one that was not cut short and moved to the northwest corner of the room, took out a carved wooden jellyfish statue dyed green, and respectfully placed it on the table, and then worshiped the statue reverently, and then poured some wine on the dining table, and then stood solemnly on the side in front of the statue, like a waiter, waiting for the arrival of the other party.

After a while, the priest of the noble god also came.

This priest's style is completely different from the priest of the Void Mask, wearing an embroidered brocade robe that is gorgeous enough for people to dare not approach, and the robe is densely covered with magic runes. And he himself is even more fat-headed and big-eared, and at a glance he knows that he is pampered, with layers of at least four or five heavy chins, and a round and upright fat belly, and he doesn't know how much people's fat and ointment he contains.

In contrast, the priest of the Void Mask is much simpler, dressed in sackcloth, light armor, a long staff, and carrying a small backpack, looking like a traveler. Compared to this priest of the god of nobility, it is really shabby to the extreme.

But in fact, these are all delusions, the priest of the noble god is not a pampered fool at all, and the priest of the void mask is not a poor traveler, if necessary, any of them have the ability to match the regular army of 100 without suffering, and they can fight when they want, and go when they want.

The high-ranking priests already have such ability.

As soon as the priest of the noble god entered, he saw the priest of the Void standing solemnly in front of the side of the idol, and then noticed the stools with a few legs cut off and the table covered with wine, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

According to the rules, in the case of negotiations like theirs, it is natural to invite the idols of the gods of both faiths out to be worshipped, as a sign that this is a sacred negotiation under the gaze of the gods. But at the moment, apart from the sawn stools, there were only tables spilled with wine, and neither of them was suitable for the worship of the gods, which made him a little embarrassed.

But after all, this priest is also a high-ranking person, and his brain is very clever, and he came up with a solution after a little thought.

I saw that he took out a silver seed from the storage belt, and took out the container of holy water, chose a clean empty bowl, filled it with holy water, and then put the seed in it, and recited the incantation, so that kind of seed took root in an instant, sprouted and sprouted, and in a few moments, it had turned into a small silver tree, and somehow there was a depression in the canopy, just enough for him to put the idol of the noble god in it, and then pray, and stand aside.

But in this period of time, with the help of magic weapons and holy water, he temporarily created a shrine.

At this time, it can be seen that the two churches have different backgrounds, the Void Mask Church is new, with talents but lack resources, and the Noble God Church relies on the human god system and has a deep heritage, but the talents are relatively inferior.

Before the negotiations began, the two priests had already exchanged hands on the trivial matter of worshipping the statue, each with their own strengths, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner.

The idols of the two sides were enshrined, and the two priests did not speak, but there was a clash of divine thoughts in the void.

This is the two gods each descending a trace of divine thought, attaching themselves to their respective idols, and starting a negotiation.

This is often the case with negotiations between senior pastors like this. They only give a testimony to later relay to the faithful and believers, and it is the gods of both sides who are really negotiating.

The first to speak was the god of nobility, and he didn't bother to say hello, and asked Sui Xiong what he meant? Why did he have to contact himself secretly when he saw that the two sides were about to fight?

Sui Xiong didn't play tricks, and really explained his intentions.

"About forty years ago, there was a Golden Tower City in the Mystic Tower Federation, and there were both your followers and the followers of the Knight God in the city, and the two sides fought endlessly. Because the believers of the god of knights are relatively short of money, they are gradually falling behind. At this time, a big merchant contacted the high-sea trade route, so the two sides set off together, but met the legendary sea monster 'Darktide' Timsar at sea and died together in the sea. And their families are forced to be miserable by your church because they owe money for buying goods......" Sui Xiong briefly recounted the past, and then asked, "I always think there is something strange behind this incident, what do you think?"

The god of nobility smiled indifferently: "There is nothing strange, that sea monster is what my priest managed to lure over." In fact, even that voyage and the time of borrowing money were planned by my priest. ”

"But isn't he dead too?"

"To die for the sake of a mission, to die a glorious death. The noble god said, "His soul has been received by me into the kingdom of God." What's so bad about this kind of death for the clergy?"

Sui Xiong was completely sure, nodded, and asked: "I want to ask another thing, when the Eagle Kingdom was in turmoil, Prince Woods launched a rebellion and killed the king......"

This is also something that my believers are promoting. The god of nobility did not wait for him to finish, "But unlike what you said before, it was a plan drawn up by themselves and carried out by themselves, and it was nothing more than submitted to me for approval. I personally planned and promoted this matter, and I also sent a legendary oracle for this purpose. ”

"Then why did you suddenly retreat after you were done, and you didn't get any benefit?" Sui Xiong was not surprised by his answer, but he was very curious about the subsequent development.

The god of nobility was silent for a moment, sighed deeply, and said nothing.

Sui Xiong waited for a long time, but he couldn't wait for an answer, he wondered in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you? Is this kind of thing worth keeping secret?"

"There's nothing to keep secret. ”

"Then why don't you say it?"

"Why do you have to ask?" asked the god of nobility, "what good is it to you to know this?"

Sui Xiong smiled and didn't answer.

What else could it be for?

It's just that he is really a little puzzled now, why does the god of nobility refuse to say it?

Could it be ...... He can't say, or is it ...... Don't dare to say?

Thinking of this, his heart moved and asked, "Did someone order you to quit?"

The god of nobility is pretending to be dumb again.

Sui Xiong immediately confirmed his conjecture - sure enough, after the god of nobility successfully pushed Woods Igor to usurp the throne, he immediately launched a purge impatiently, originally wanting to let his church occupy the Eagle Kingdom in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, the Great Purge was completed, and before he could reap the fruits of victory, he was ordered by the Lord of Light to push it out, and the result was in vain and nothing was found.

Why, then, did the Lord of Light order Him to withdraw? Is it because he has a good relationship with the God of Knights? Or is it because of something else?

Sui Xiong wasn't sure, but he knew that he wouldn't be able to ask for any more information.

After a moment of silence, he said, "I have one more thing I want to talk to you about." ”

"What's the matter?"

"Don't you think that your doctrine is not perfect enough?" Sui Xiong hesitated for a moment, but still said his suggestion, "The status of nobility should be able to go up and down, and the glory of ancestors cannot become a capital for future generations to enjoy." If the descendants are not successful, they should lose their noble status. ”

"Is it like the one you did in the Northwest Republic?" The god of nobility had obviously studied the aristocracy of the Northwest Republic, and asked with a sneer, "Just turn the struggle of the ancestors into mere honors?

"The struggle of ancestors is not to make future generations the object of struggle!"

"Who would work so hard not to be a superior man! Who would be so attentive to the country and the church if not to be a superior man for generations to come! Why don't you read history!"

"People can't always live in the past, they have to look forward and promote historical progress. Sui Xiong persuaded, "Look at the late Imia Lamperous, he promoted the progress of history." Is there anyone else who is doing what was done in the wizarding days?"

"After so many years, there is also a Lampelous. The god of nobility scoffed, "Do you want everyone to be Lamperous? ”

"The land of the main plane is limited, but the greed of the nobles is unlimited, and if this continues, no family can last long, but every few decades and hundreds of years, the people who are pressed by greed and have no way out will rise up and rebel and destroy the nobles once - at that time, any family will perish. Sui Xiong said, "I have studied history, and throughout the ages, there are very few families that have been more than 200 years old, and most families will perish in the fourth or fifth generation, mainly because the descendants have completely degenerated and degenerated, oppressing the people to the point of having to resist." ”

"Isn't it enough to be able to pass on four to five generations?" the god of nobility asked rhetorically, "The life span of mortals is only so short, and it is not enough for them to fight for the glory of the family for four or five generations?"

"But why not change to a gentler approach, which is more progressive and more motivating future generations to continue to work hard......"

"No," said the god of nobility, "it would be foolish to break a long-standing tradition for the sake of a little so-called progress. I will not compromise the interests of my core believers, that is what I am. ”

“...... Well, it's up to me to do it myself. Sui Xiong sighed deeply, "When the time comes, don't blame me." ”

"If you could really push for a change in the whole aristocracy, I would have fallen by then. The god of nobility said lightly, "When the time comes, you will tell the new generation of noble gods what we said today." ”

After saying that, the idol in the temporary shrine shook slightly, and he had already withdrawn that trace of divine thought. (To be continued.) )
