Chapter 33: Link's Decision
Against Altaïr, Link can be said to have won a fluke, because Altaïr would never have imagined that Link was so resilient, let alone that there was a big bird in the sky that was always staring at him and could tell Link everything he had.
From the time Altaïr did not storm Link due to his concerns, his defeat was doomed, and he stepped into the trap that Link had set for him.
Soon after, Sagar and the others rushed over, and they were all shocked to see that Dubai and Martin were all destroyed, but they did not pay much attention to the blessing of the Father, and soon calmed down and told Link about the settlement of the battle and the surrender of the enemy.
Link was completely relaxed when he learned about it, and a strong fatigue hit him, making him want to go back to sleep like this, but now there was finishing work to be done, so he had to cheer up and ask Zaga and the others to clean up the body, and take the unconscious Altaïr back and take him back.
After the order was finished, the system, which would suddenly bubble up from time to time, spoke again.
Link's eyes lit up after hearing this, and after a little thought, he replied: "Upgrade the "Nine Yang Divine Skill"!"
The reason why "Jiuyang Divine Skill" was chosen is because "Jiuyang Divine Skill" can not only make him stronger after upgrading, but also because "One Yang Finger" can also exert a stronger effect after the increase of internal force, and the most important thing is that Altaïr's matter made him very wary of assassins, he doesn't want to practice a powerful magic and die at the hands of assassins, so he should give priority to increasing his melee strength.
Link couldn't help but be a little disappointed when he heard this: "Is it just that there are more middle triples? ”
At this time, Jack ran over and said excitedly: "Archbishop, we have won, the enemy has been completely destroyed, and a total of thirteen people have been captured, what are you going to do with them?"
Lin Ke thought about it for a while: "Let's lock it up first, it's useful to keep it." ”
"Yes, I'll arrange it. ”
"Wait. Link stopped Jack, who wanted to leave, "How many casualties did we have this time?"
Jack looked gloomy when he heard this: "Three people have died in battle, and the others have been treated in the Cathedral of Light. ”
"Did the three of them die in battle?" Link also showed a gloomy expression, although this casualty was almost negligible compared to the enemy's casualties, but for Link, who had not fully adapted to the status of the superior, the sacrifice of his subordinates was not a pleasant thing.
After a while, Link asked, "Do they have any families?" ”
Jack hurriedly replied, "Two of them have families, and the remaining one was born as an orphan and has no relatives. ”
Link nodded and said, "Well, then their families will be taken to the monastery, and I will take care of them, and also, put their bodies away, and I will personally preside over their burial ceremony." ”
"Yes, I will arrange it, Archbishop, you don't have to grieve, they died for the glory of the Father, and after death the soul can go to heaven to serve the Father, it is a very happy thing!"
"Heaven?" Link was silent for a long time, and finally ended the topic with a long sigh.
After that, Link didn't have the heart to celebrate the victory, and after arranging the mess early, he went back to his room and went to sleep.
At this moment, Link was tired, physically tired, and his heart was even more tired, especially when he heard Jack say that the dead could go to heaven, his heart was full of guilt, because heaven did not exist at all.
Although there was not much psychological pressure to say this beforehand, when someone died, it was a completely different feeling when it was brought up, and it was not a pleasant thing for Link to deceive those who believed in him and believed in him.
"Why do those superiors in the story have no psychological burden to deceive people, but I have to dwell on this kind of thing? I used to deceive people, and now I am deceiving people, why does it feel completely different when someone dies with my lie?" Link kept thinking, his body and mind became more and more exhausted, and finally he fell into a deep sleep.
However, Link's inner entanglement did not last long, and when he woke up the next day, he opened it, because he remembered that there were many buildings in the copycat page game, such as Valhalla and Samsarium, which were dedicated to housing the souls of the deceased, so that the souls of the dead could be redeemed and happy, and as long as he got those buildings, he could completely create an ideal place for the cultists to go after death, if not as far as the legendary heaven.
If going to heaven is just a beautiful lie, then create a 'truth' that is not much worse than going to heaven!
"Okay, that's it, when these buildings are drawn, they will leave a soul mark on all the congregants, so that they can find peace and happiness even if they are unfortunately sacrificed. With the corpses of the three sacrificial cultists, Link silently set a new goal for himself.
At the same time, the whole town of Chinko was in shock, because the news of the battle of last night had already spread, and although it was only a rough idea, it was enough to cause a tremor like an earthquake of magnitude 8 in this town.
What is the Church of the Fathers? The faith of all the townspeople in Chinko has a complete monopoly on the believers in the town, and when the townspeople learn that their church has been attacked in the middle of the night, the whole town is furious.
Without the help of the Father's Cult, the angry townspeople decisively turned into mobs and stormed the churches of the Mad God Temple and the Cult of War, almost razing the two churches to the ground, and the masters of the two sects were all wiped out last night, and the rest of the people had already rolled up and fled, and the officials acquiesced to this, so there was no one to stop the angry people.
In just one morning, the Temple of Mad God and the Cult of the God of War became the history of the town of Cenko.
Since then, only the Church of the Father has been left in the town of Cenko and the Cult of the Celestials, which have remained neutral and low-key throughout, and are almost forgotten.
Link was not hostile to the Celestial Spirits, because the doctrine of the Celestial Spirits was to retreat from the world, and the congregations lived ascetic lives, and they were not enthusiastic about preaching and collecting believers, and they were even not interested.
When they saw the miracle of the Holy Light Cathedral, although the people of the Heavenly Spirit Sect were surprised, they didn't react much, and they did what they should do afterwards, and they were not moved by the strong rise of the Father God Sect in the slightest, as if it had nothing to do with the Heavenly Spirit Sect.
It was precisely because of this attitude that Martin and Dubai invited the Heavenly Spirit Sect to deal with the Father God Sect several times, without exception, but they were all refused, and in the end, they even ignored the two religions, making the two religions angry but helpless.
After Link learned about the attitude of the Heavenly Spirit Sect from Darian, he couldn't help but be curious and puzzled about this church, if he had such an isolated attitude, why did he still open a branch church in Cenko Town?
Thinking of this, Link felt the need to find a time to talk to the people of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, although on the surface there was no conflict of interest between the Heavenly Spirit Sect and the Father God Sect, but the hearts of the people were unpredictable, God knows what this church thought, in order to prevent being attacked from the rear, it was better to let the people of the Heavenly Spirit Sect leave Cenko Town.
Well, Link is ready to solve the problem with gentle means, so hello me hello everyone.
However, the most important thing at the moment was the aftermath compared to the Celestial Spirit Sect, and that afternoon, under the auspices of Link and the farewell of relatives and friends, the three sacrificed members were buried in the cemetery outside the monastery.
Although those relatives, friends, and congregants were saddened by the sacrifice of the three people, they did not grieve too much, because they believed that God the Father existed, and that the souls of the three people who sacrificed for the Father would surely fly to heaven under the guidance of the Father, where they would find eternal peace and happiness.
In Link's eyes, he was even more determined to get the soul placement building out.
At the same time, the news of what happened in the town of Cenko was also spread to the outside world, and after learning that all the people sent by his side were destroyed, the Cult of War and the Mad God Temple were shocked, especially the high-ranking leaders of the Ares Cult, who had sent out Altaïr, the most powerful assassin in the sect, but Link was still alive and well, while Altaïr was not heard from at all.
Faced with this situation, the God of War Cult was afraid, and he didn't even have the heart to care about the death of the presiding priest, Altaïr was the backbone of the God of War Cult, and his strength was the best in the church, and now that even Altaïr had an accident, how strong should the Father God Cult be?
Therefore, after a short meeting with the high-ranking members of the Ares Cult, they decisively recalled the powerful members of the Sect assigned to major towns to their headquarters to prevent the Fathers from sending assassins to attack the high-ranking personnel.
Compared to the Ares Cult's decisive act of being a tortoise, the Mad God Temple's reaction was much more exaggerated, the Reams Cult was at best a church with churches in a dozen towns, while the Mad God Temple had influence in one-third of the Red Moon Province, and the power in the Red Moon Province was close to the five major churches with the Pope.
In the face of the annihilation of Martin and the others, the Mad God Temple was not only shocked, but also fell into a rage, and many voices in the sect suddenly appeared to send a large army to destroy the Father God Cult again, and even the top leaders of the sect thought so, they didn't think that a small Father God Sect could block the monstrous anger of the Mad God Temple.
However, just as the Mad God Temple was about to organize another attack on the Mad God Temple, three of the five major religions in the Red Moon Province suddenly put pressure on the Mad God Temple, forcing the Mad God Temple to terminate its plan to send troops.
The demands of the three major religions are simple: to preserve the Father's religion.
Faced with this situation, not only the Mad God Temple was shocked, but even the other religions that heard the news were also surprised, and they didn't understand why the three major religions wanted the Patriarch Sect, but the top leaders of the three major religions were silent about this matter and refused to reveal the reason.
It wasn't until a long time later that people learned that the three major religions were forced to do so under pressure from a higher level, because that higher level was the Earl of Lothar, the Emperor of the Red Moon Province.
In order not to cause unnecessary trouble to Link and the Father's Cult, Count Lothar asked the top leaders of the three major religions not to disclose the matter, and told the three major religions that he only wanted to repay Link because he was cured of his illness.
The high-ranking members of the three major religions also knew about the stubborn illness of the Count of Lothar, and when they saw that he was cured, they were convinced of this statement, and it was a good deal to make this unbelieving earth emperor owe them favors, and as for the Father's Cult, it was still very weak and could not threaten them at all, so they didn't mind helping this small church that had just risen.
