Chapter 1: The Heliocentric Theory

Next Chapter

In front of the splendid Cathedral of Light in Aurora, there has been no such holy Inquisition for a long time.

The white marble square was crowded with people, and every breath seemed to be under great pressure, and the believers pushed and scrambled, wanting to see the supreme glory of the Bright Red Sect Master.

"The Ceremony of Light" says that the God of Light created the kingdom of heaven, and human beings should live in heaven without worry, but because of desire, they opened the world of the original sin box and fell into the magic box, and only through selfless dedication to complete self-redemption can they return to the kingdom of heaven. ”

The Cardinal Master looked at Bai Nivens on the stake with compassion in his eyes.

It is pity for the ignorant, as if looking at an ignorant child.

"Duke Whitenivens, your heliocentric theory, which believes that the sun is the center of the universe, that the star curtain world is a huge spherical celestial body, and that there are countless celestial bodies similar to the star curtain world orbiting the sun, which violates the "Bright Festival", in view of your hereditary duke and nobility, now you can complete the final self-redemption by modifying the heretical concept in the book that involves blaspheming the god of light. ”

On the cross, Bai Nivens's heart at this moment was extremely calm.

He looked at the trial jury of the Inquisition, at the Pope of Light who looked down on him, at the endless light on the top of the Cathedral of Light in Aurora, and at the scholars of the various academies hidden in the crowd.

He can compromise and continue his dukedom on the condition that he changes the nature research in the book that violates the Bright Triumph, or he can try to make the scholars hidden in the crowd fight for him.

But when he saw the angry eyes of the endless believers in the square, it was looking at the intolerance of the heretics, and he knew his choice.

Whitevens knew that if he resisted, the heliocentric doctrine would be an eternal heresy in their hearts, that ignorant beliefs would rule the minds of men for a longer time, and that it would be more difficult for truth to break through the thick night and bring the brilliance of wisdom, reason, and civilization.

Bai Nivens slowly turned his head and looked at the twelve red-clothed Grand Sect Masters on the high platform.

In their eyes, White Nivens seemed to see pity for himself, and the heliocentric theory that he had insisted on all his life was, in their eyes, just the whims of the ignorant and ignorant.

There must be a martyr in this world, who uttered the cry of reason and died to stand for the truth!

"The starry sky of the universe, there is no bright heaven!"

White Nivens roared, looking at the people in the square who were overwhelmed with anger and hatred because of his words.

"Damn traitor, he is still insisting on his heretical scholarship, burn him!"

"May the Lord have mercy on this lost Lamb......

"It's ridiculous, he said that the Star Curtain World is a huge sphere, if that's the case, why didn't we fall, hahahaha!"

"He went so far as to say that there is no kingdom of heaven, and I will never allow him to defile the holiness of the great creator of light, filthy and stupid fellows, all the existence of blasphemy against the God of Light is heresy, and will be burned to death!"

Some people picked up stones and threw them at the stake to vent their anger.

The sporadic scholars were so insignificant in the crowd, looking at the endless light believers around them, and at the pioneers who were being burned at the stake to bear the wrath of the believers, leaving unwilling tears.

However, Bai Nivens just calmly endured everything, looked at the sky shrouded in holy light, and let out a touching roar.

"The law of truth can never be extinguished by violence, and the law of order between the celestial bodies of the universe cannot be changed even by the so-called God of Light Creator!"

The twelve red-clothed Great Sect members showed disappointment.

This poor foolish creature who died of ignorance is no longer worth saving, and his soul will go to hell and suffer eternal torment.

However!

That's it!

With the stirring of the holy light at the top of the Aurora Church, it was the wrath of the creator of light, and in the tearful surprise of many believers chanting "miracles", the pope, who was indifferent and calm, got up in shock, and a majestic divine power descended from the sky, drowning Bai Nivens on the stake.

White Nivens looked up at the majestic power of the sky that was not of the world, smiled calmly, and faced death.

"You can be angry, you will be afraid, you will be a higher creature after all, just a life being who claims to be a god of light, not an omnipotent creator. ”

The blazing light and divine fire completely submerged White Nivens.

Countless believers fell to their knees, tears filled their eyes to witness the miracles of light in their lifetimes, and vowed to eradicate every heresy and to remain firm in light and justice until death.

Even the scholars who mingled with the believers could only succumb to the divine right and kneel unwillingly.

At this moment, imperial power succumbed to divine power, and natural science lost to light theology.

However.

In the crowd, some rational people who were originally loyal believers in the God of Light, at the moment when they witnessed the divine power of light coming into the world, looked at Bai Nivens, who was burned by the divine power of light and regarded death as home for the sake of upholding the truth, their hearts were shocked, and they were also a little shaken by the belief in light that they adhered to.

Why can't the great God of Light have mercy and forgiveness on this fool?

......

Hundreds of years later.

Duchy of Glan, a small town of Lake Onyx.

"I know how you feel. ”

The pastor's eyes showed kindness day after day, and his white and delicate right hand patted the boy's shoulder as a sign of comfort.

"Although you already have the power to pray and prove your devout faith in the Lord, Gentleman Bob has volunteered a hundred gold coins to support the church's expedition to heresy and spread the light, and he has already been given a missionary seat in advance through his selfless dedication, and you can only wait for next year. ”

Forty years have passed since the last Crusade of Light fell on night, and legend has it that the incoming new pope can't wait to wash away the shame of the previous failed expedition.

Lei Luo looked up and looked at the priest full of reluctance.

"You said the same thing when last year's place was taken away by Lars' arbiter uncle!"

The pastor's eyes are still so compassionate.

"A hundred gold coins is enough for the church to cultivate a few outstanding knights of light, and maybe another arbiter can be born, and you give up your own place, which can be regarded as a kind of self-sacrifice and self-redemption. ”

"But!"

Although Lei Luo looks thin and weak, he is a seventeen-year-old boy with strong blood and blood, full of unwillingness.

"They have no power to pray, they can't preach the greatness of the Lord at all! And I, my mother, because of my devout belief in the Lord, chose to sacrifice myself when I had a difficult birth seventeen years ago, and I was trying to atone for my sins on the first day of my birth! My father, the most devout believer in the town, had the greatest wish that I could become a missionary, go to remote and barren places, and preach the greatness of the Lord, and now that he is seriously ill in bed, I can only ask for the mercy of God of Light if I become a priest......"

"Enough!"

The priest said angrily: "Your eyes are full of anger and jealousy, and you have not grasped the true meaning of self-sacrifice and redemption at all! You just think of your own small family, and you have not thought about the thousands of believers who have been persecuted by heresy, when will you understand the selfless dedication of the Lord, come again!"

With that, the priest walked to the bright and holy church, ignoring the pleading Lei Luo at the bottom of the steps.
