The golden morning light shone on the steps of the mountain road leading to the Supreme Temple, and the huge white marble pillars were lined up, each of which was engraved with the counsel of the Prophet Phelan, holding a sword in one hand and a bronze doctrine in the other, with a solemn expression, revealing the vicissitudes of time,

It is said that when this supreme temple was built, more than 200,000 Sky Cultists dug up these finest marble materials from the Myaris Mountains, which are more than 300 miles away, in the original way of carrying this supreme temple, and the Sky Cultists walked up this winding mountain road one by one, which lasted for ten years.

This is the foreshadowing of the people's hearts, and it is the most obvious manifestation of the influence of theocracy on the hearts of the secular people, compared with the power of the secular royal power supported by force, the divine power based on the piety of the believers often has more power to directly control the hearts of the people.

Kingship and divine power, since the birth of religion in mankind, the confrontation between the two has never stopped, and now on this step leading to the temple of divine power on the top of the mountain, the snow-bright swords, armor, and falcon battle flags fluttering in the morning breeze make the entire mountain road under the shroud of secular royal power, "This is a holy place, you can't do this! This is blasphemy, I want to see the Governor" Monroe, the chief priest of the Presbyterian Church, looked flustered, and personally found the Governor of the Southern Empire, Statunko, who arrived yesterday, to judge,

The Governor immediately turned his face and was ruthless, his eyes were full of murderous snort, and he said coldly, "In my eyes, there is no holy land, only the land of the Empire! The bombing of the temple is such a major event, Your Majesty will definitely personally inquire about it, unless the High Priest of Monroe already thinks that the Holy Land can be above the Empire! If that's the case, it's very simple, and His Majesty has never been soft on rebellion! So the High Priest is in the mood to question here, so it's better to think about how to face His Majesty's anger." There, how is that possible!"

The chief priest of Monroe was frightened and covered with cold sweat, and hurriedly hugged his head and ran away. The governor of the south is right, such a big matter tonight, the Vekia Falcon will definitely investigate this matter personally, rather than wasting time here, it is better to find out the situation immediately, thinking of this, the high priest of Monroe immediately summoned Mamunuk, who was on duty tonight, but no one could say clearly,

Tonight's situation erupted too suddenly, and the High Temple of High Priest Parschena suddenly exploded. The entire temple collapsed in half, fortunately, the high priest of Parschena was not much injured in the explosion, but her personal maid Red Moon died because Vipalschena blocked the rubble from the explosion, and the abbot of the Doctrine, Adonis, who was also in the temple at the time, was also unfortunately seriously injured by the scattered rocks, and is now scrambling to treat it.

Monroe had just gone to see it, and the dean's body was thin. At this moment, it was as if he had been slashed more than a dozen times, his body was covered with open wounds, the snow-white priest's robe was stained red with blood, and his right arm and legs showed an unnatural bend. Apparently fractured, with bloody foam and shattered internal organ fragments at the corners of his mouth, his eyes turned white and completely out of focus.

Monroe had also been on the battlefield and had seen the mountains of corpses and the sea of blood, but he was also taken aback by the miserable appearance of the second person in the Temple. If they all can live, then it is called unreasonable, and there is no point in asking the dead, "May I ask the high priest, was there anyone else at that time besides you, the Red Moon, and the abbot of the doctrine, Adunis?" Monroe was anxious, among the three people present at the time, one was dead and one was injured, and one was basically dead, in desperation, Monroe had to personally ask the frightened Parschena, but the high priest was silent about the matter, as if there was something unspeakable, and when the sun rose, the entire holy mountain had been lifted upside down by the imperial army, especially the highest temple that exploded on the top of the mountain,

All the people were gathered on the wide flat in front of the ruins of the highest temple, which used to be used by believers to worship the highest temple, so it was built very huge, the ground was paved with stones, Ivan Brown, one of the four great priests of the Presbyterian Church, had a solemn face, in front of him was Monroe, the chief priest, and behind him was the abbot of the doctrine who was wrapped in a white cloth, if it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, it would be a corpse, and on the left was the white-haired Timos, and the four of them were in the first row,

Behind is the entire middle floor of the temple, with about fifty priests, and further down, there are the low-ranking priests of more than 300 people, and finally the one hundred and fifty Mamunuk's knights to whom the temple belongs.

No one knows what happened last night, a huge explosion resounded through the top of the temple, the sky-high fire, the chaotic firefighters, and then in the early hours of this morning, a large number of imperial troops suddenly pressed the border, like a terrible nightmare, the priests, who used to think of themselves as theocratic agents, suddenly found that in front of these real armies with a murderous aura, they didn't even dare to stand up and say a word,

The entire holy place searched by the army, and drove everyone out of their residences, these priests, who were once revered as theocratic spokesmen, were now forbidden, and the imperial soldiers on both sides were dark, The gaze on the deep face like a knife makes everyone feel cold on their backs, they feel difficult to breathe, their hearts are pounding fiercely, that kind of momentum and majesty, the momentum condensed by a hundred battles, just the gaze can give people a heavy pressure, if it is not unimaginable through personal experience, no one will believe that in this murderous aura, every second of waiting, the legs and stomach can't help but tremble.

When confronted with true power, these priests, who had previously considered themselves superior, suddenly discovered that the so-called gods would not give them courage. Their so-called theocracy disappeared like flowing water in the face of the power of the empire,

The so-called theocracy is a joke at all, in the eyes of the empire, they are nothing more than a swarm of self-righteous ants, even if it is just a whistling from flying by, it is enough to put them in a situation from which they will never recover!

For the first time, they felt that their lives were like a leaf in the wind, which would be crushed by the sharp imperial sword at any time, the sun was shining in the sky, but what shone on them was a majestic cold, and the black armor around them seemed to be able to hide the light, and they knelt like this, and no one dared to stand up, "What the hell is going on!"

Behind the four priests, among the dozens of priests in the middle level, there were occasionally a few whispers of confusion, and a few faintly separated their eyes after glancing at each other, their faces were hesitant and pale, and their eyes flashed with a secret luster (to be continued). )
