Uya mentioned the jailer, and a cold light burst out from Geges's golden eyes. That's pure hatred. If it were possible, if he could get the power of the oracle, he would destroy the Inquisition and make those people pay with blood.

His hand, accidentally revealing his sleeve, held half a statue in his hand, but it was a demon with two horns.

He remembered the time when the demon gave him the statue, and that it was on that occasion that his village had been destroyed. The X-shaped god in the sky killed everything, except for himself, who was protected by a demon statue.

He didn't expect that the demon, what was left behind, saved his life.

Then there was the oracle of God, who gave himself strength and refined the remains of the gods, so that he could directly become a person qualified to be the Pope. The two divine envoys are not a good thing, if they were not betrayed by themselves, I am afraid that Faka would not have been easy to get.

The demon statue in the hand of Geges *** was completely distracted.

The cardinals were outraged by Uya's arrangement, and they withdrew from Nick Cathedral and returned to another church in the Holy City to study countermeasures.

There were more than 100 cardinals in the Cardinal's house, and it turned out that those powerful guys were all taken away by Pope Dinisio and did not return. The current College of Cardinals is a different world. The old forces were purged and new magicians took the throne.

If it weren't for the Holy See itself in such a mess, the war on the border of Qin would not have developed to the point where it is today. Those expeditionary forces, with no one to take care of their logistics and no one to support them in the battle, were killed by some less powerful legions back into the territory of Garulan, retreating farther and farther.

According to the theory of astrologers, the Holy See is now in a state of turmoil, and it has been divided by the Cult of Deity with a lot of the power of faith.

The power of faith is not really something that comes directly to everyone. Human beings are also beings attached to the plane. If there are two gods in one plane spreading religion, it will inevitably cause war, because the total number of mysterious powers in the plane is limited, and it does not mean that whichever god is stronger will gain more power.

Whoever has more believers will get more benefits from this plane.

The power of faith, which comes from the plane, is what humans help the gods to go west. The gods simply cannot accomplish this transformation, so believers must be developed.

When the power of faith in this plane is absorbed, then this plane will face exhaustion.

Believers will not be able to go to heaven at all, but will only struggle in the plane of hell.

The time it takes for a depleted plane to recover is calculated over billions of years. The shortest lifespan of a plane is tens of billions of years, and if the gods do not ask for it, the plane may be able to hold on to the end of its lifespan.

But most gods don't care about this, for the gods, the power of faith is life, it is power, it is the capital to survive among the gods.

Everyone is desperately trying to consume the power of faith in the plane, unless there is a strange god like the metal god, everyone is doing things to quench their thirst.

If all the planes of a crystal wall system become the ranch of the gods, then the crystal wall system will also be destroyed.

The gods are such creatures, constantly taking, without moderation.

The cardinals discussed things in their secret chambers, which could not have happened while Dinisio was alive. Geges has no connections, and he was forcibly promoted to the top by a divine envoy.

Everyone looked at each other in the conference room, and according to the rank, there were twenty-four cardinals who were eligible to enter here.

In the end, it was the First Cardinal who spoke, he was an old cardinal with a large number of followers in the College of Cardinals.

"Uya wants to drain the power of the Knights of the Kingdom of God, and I don't think this is a bad thing. ”

"My lord, why do you say that?" asked the third cardinal, who had been the first cardinal's deputy.

"The city of Cologne cannot be defended, but with this opportunity, we may be able to invite the gods to descend. Prepare 3,000 believers, believe in the purest faith, and if it is not enough, go to the mission of God to borrow it. ”

"My lord, do you want a holy sacrifice?"

All the cardinals, excited.

The so-called holy sacrifice is actually a blood sacrifice, a divine technique that is launched by purifying the blood of believers, and using the death of saints to stimulate the gods and descend ***.

If the Lord of Radiance descends, the kid who doesn't have the three artifacts will definitely get out, and the Cardinal Council will once again become the core of the Holy See.

To launch such a large-scale divine art, it is not enough to just kill people, and the enemy needs to do it. This Salin, qualified enough, to attract the attention of the gods.

Only one of the 3,000 credible believers who meets the standards of a saint is enough to invite the Lord of Light.

"Yes, Holy Sacrifice. If the Holy Sacrifice is successful, the Holy City will be ours. The First Cardinal's eyes showed a strange sparkle of intoxication, and he said softly: "Go and find the believers in your diocese at once, the younger the better, preferably less than sixteen." ”

"My lord!" the second cardinal objected, but saw the other two dozen or so colleagues glaring at him fiercely.

It's cruel to do that.

Before the age of sixteen, he was still a child. Children are often pure, and this practice makes the second cardinal uncomfortable. But what can be done, he also hopes to get the power of the gods, and hopes to invite the Lord of Radiance.

That Salin is too strong, and the current Holy See is a mess of scattered sand, unless Black Prison Island is willing to support. Otherwise, the only city that everyone can defend is the Holy City.

Here is the magic left by the Lord of Radiance, and the flying city is also inaccessible.

"In addition, the holy sacrifice of 3,000 believers requires a lot of divine crystals, so let's get some together. "The First Cardinal is obviously not going to pay for it himself. The Divine Crystal is in the Holy See, which is equivalent to the status of the Demon Core among mages.

This is hard currency, and the transaction between high-level magicians is no longer gold coins, but divine crystals that everyone secretly refines. Of course, the only way to do this is to steal the power of faith from the gods.

Anyway, everyone is doing it, and they have been doing it for thousands of years, so presumably the gods won't mind too much.

Relying only on the divine crystals rewarded by the gods, what do you use to give strength to your followers? Even if you are a mage who works for the nobles, you have to take the magic core as a reward, right?

Saleen's Floating City was still flying west, and Cologne was not far away, but Saleen made the Floating City a little cheaper and went around to the north.

He will not attack Cologne City directly, but will drive away all the magicians around Cologne City before attacking.

In the city of Cologne, Saleen has no intention of staying. This city, out of the saints, such a place, must be destroyed. It is a symbol of faith, a place where the gods have visited. Moreover, this is not the City of Radiance, but the gods themselves have left a divine art, and all believers who can reach the standard of saints can comprehend this divine art and become the most powerful divine magician in this plane.

Every year, millions of believers worship for a reason. If it's just a relic, who would waste so much energy? Everyone wants to know if they are saints or not.

Of course, people who think this way will definitely not be appreciated by the gods.

The city of Cologne is surrounded by a high concentration of believers, and there are churches even in the countryside. In most places, there are not even peasants farming, and those who farm are slaves.

All the civilians became believers, and every day as long as they prayed, the church distributed food. Those slaves, of course, belonged to the church. The priests are rich in oil, and the surrounding checkpoints have to charge tolls, which are collected by the gods.

Do the gods need gold? Those who were questioned were sent to the Inquisition for autopsy.

Churches were reduced to dust under Salin's magic cannon. Salin had brought 3,000 magic cannons, and by now, half of them had been destroyed. Once the magic cannon is damaged, it cannot be repaired, because Salin lacks skills and lacks some necessary materials.

Of course, it is possible to use the crystals of non-attribute crystals, or the crystals of giant bones, to make magic cannons that will not be damaged, but in that case, it will be too wasteful.

After losing half of his magic cannons and letting the floating city hover in the air, he returned to Metatrin City once and brought up another three thousand magic cannons from the warehouse.

The consumption of magic cores is also huge, and Salin has even begun to invest low-level elemental creatures to replace magic cores.

Every time the magic cannon is fired, it is a luxury for the mage.

The three hundred and sixty large Thunder Dragon Spears were not damaged, but such a weapon, Saleen was used to attack the Holy City, and it was never used.

Floating City has been fighting with ranged attacks, and from the beginning to the end, Saleen has not descended to the ground.

After about three days of walking around the city of Cologne, Saleen cleared no less than 300 churches. That's a staggering number.

A church will have at least 100 believers, and 300 churches will have 30,000 believers. The profession of these believers is to entertain pilgrims. That is, around the city of Cologne, there are 30,000 people, dedicated to such a business.

"It's like a marketplace of faith. Salin concluded.

The little girl said, "Market, you are such a person without faith, you can be so vulgar." These people serve the gods, and if there is no income, how can more people throw themselves into the arms of the gods?"

"No, you're mistaken. Salin said earnestly: "At least, I once personally wrote a code of law, built a huge temple, and recruited hundreds of thousands of believers, and also created the Knights of the Temple, the Council of Cardinals, and the Divine Mission. How can you say I don't know the faith?"

"Because of faith, you never need to reciprocate, you do all this, it's all clear and real. ”

"Well, there is indeed a price, and if you give enough, you can be promoted, this is my understanding of the gods.
