Chapter 80: Angering the Crowd
The next day, because Lax was bedridden, the three of Allen set off a little late, and by the time they arrived in the town of Arutonga, it was already noon.
As soon as he stepped into the town of Arutonga, Alan felt a strong religious atmosphere, because everyone in the town was extremely pious and had a hint of fanaticism.
The church founded by Joshua, the lord of Arutonga, is called the Cult of the Sun God, and the name is very imposing, but Alan scoffs at it.
Such a small church in the countryside dares to call itself the Cult of the Sun God?
The Helios Cult did exist, and it has left an indelible mark on history.
Speaking of the Sun God Cult, we have to talk about the Evelyn Kingdom during the Origin Continent period.
The Kingdom of Everlyn is a kingdom created by the Harirans in the Source Continent, and it is the eternal pride of all Harirans. At that time, the Avelyn Kingdom was known as the "Land of the Black Dragon", and it was the strongest force in the Source Continent, and there was no one!
Although the North Mar Kingdom and the Eplin Kingdom created by the Noah people are known as the two overlords of the Source Continent, in fact, the strength of the North Mar Kingdom was more than a step worse than the Everlin Kingdom at the beginning.
It wasn't until a drastic change in the Evelyn Kingdom that the North Mar Kingdom had the strength to fight against the Evelyn Kingdom. And the protagonist of this upheaval is the Sun God Cult.
The Cult of Helios is the largest church in the Kingdom of Everlyn and worships the common deity of the Harilans, the Sun God. At that time, although the Heliosian Religion was not canonized as the state religion by the kingdom, it was actually no different from the state religion, and its followers were spread throughout the kingdom of Everring.
Until one day, the king of the kingdom of Everlyn suddenly claimed that the upper echelons of the Helios Cult had turned their backs on the belief of the Sun God and thrown themselves into the arms of the evil gods.
The kingdom and the Helios fought a protracted war, which ended in the kingdom's victory, but the strength of the kingdom of Ephrin was also drastically reduced due to this war, and it was no longer in its former glory.
Some people even claim that if the Evelyn Kingdom was still in its heyday, the God of Destruction, Kirios, might not be able to conquer the entire Source Continent. In other words, these people believed that the kingdom of Avelyn in its heyday had the strength to rival the gods!
Joshua named the church he founded the Cult of the Sun God, which seemed to Allen to be like a little cat playing the banner of a big tiger.
As soon as the three of them entered the town of Arutonga, they were stopped by two warriors in black armor.
The black armor on the two warriors was extremely elaborate, and the position of the breastplate depicted a sign of the sun.
When the residents saw these two black-armored warriors, they would stop and respectfully shout "Lord Knight".
"The splendor of the sun god lives forever. ”
Two black-armored warriors walked up to Eren and said, "We are the guardian knights of the Sun God Cult, and we don't know what the three of you are doing in our Arutonga Town. ”
"We are also believers in the sun god, and we heard that there is a great church of the sun god here, so we came here to see it. ”
Alan said what he had already thought of.
"I see," the Guardian Knight chuckled, "Welcome, there is a ceremony to worship the great sun god tonight, and the three of you can stay and watch." ”
"It's our pleasure. Alan laughed.
There were not many people who came and went to Arutonga on weekdays, most of them were loyal followers of the sun god, and the two black-armored warriors were accustomed to this, so they left after asking a few questions.
"I don't like the atmosphere, it's weird. After the two Knights Cathar left, Lux said.
"The strength of those two apologetic knights just now is not weak, they should be fourth- or fifth-level warriors. "Ya Ropeway.
"Are you sure?" asked Allen.
Yasuo nodded: "Sure." ”
"In this way, the strength of this Arutonga town is not weak. Alan sighed, he had just looked around, and there were quite a few black-armored warriors around, at least more than a dozen. If these black-armored warriors all have the strength of four or five levels, then the strength of this Arutonga Town should not be underestimated.
I just don't know how many Knights Aphar there are in the entire town of Arutonga.
The scale of Arutonga Town is relatively large among the towns, at least the three towns in Huaxia Territory are not as large as Arutonga Town in terms of scale, which shows that Joshua has really put a lot of thought into the management of the town.
There was a sizable tavern in the town, which was said to be used to entertain foreign guests, and before the three of them had eaten at noon, they decided to eat something to fill their stomachs.
The tavern was only on the first floor, but there were a lot of people inside, and after the three of them entered, they found a place to sit against the wall.
Alan looked around, and in addition to the three of them, there were three tables of people who were obviously outsiders.
One table is a family of three, of which the son is about ten years old, and the parents look to be in their fifties, which should be regarded as an elderly child. All three were dressed as peasants, and the reason why Alan thought they were outsiders was because they had a lot of baggage at their feet, which was obviously the luggage of the three of them.
There was also a table of a noble young master, and the whole table was full of food, but he was the only one who was sitting, and there were three or four people standing next to him to eat. In addition to this, there were four guards standing near him, silently protecting him.
is so high-profile, at a glance, you can tell that it is a young master from a big family.
The last table was the one that caught Allen's attention the most, this one was four people, three warriors, and one magician hidden in a cloak.
The reason why Eren knew that the person wearing the cloak was a magician was because the magician held a magic wand in his right hand even when he was eating.
The four of them sat there and ate silently, without saying a word, but they gave Alan a strong sense of oppression and danger.
In the center of the tavern, a young man was gleefully recounting the glorious deeds of the lord, the high priest Joshua.
"That monster is more than ten meters tall and more than ten meters long, and it looks like a small mountain from a distance!
The young man paused, and his two clever eyes kept rolling as they looked at the diners around them. When he saw that everyone was looking at him expectantly, the young man smiled with satisfaction and continued his sermon.
"At this moment, our great High Priest, Lord Joshua, walked out of the town! Lord Joshua looked at the monster rushing towards him, and a dazzling golden light appeared behind him, and at that moment, Lord High Priest was reincarnated like the sun god!"
"When that monster the size of a small mountain saw the appearance of the High Priest, it turned its head in fright and ran, and fled without a trace with its tail between its legs!
The diners in the tavern applauded, not caring how exaggerated the story was. In their opinion, the High Priest should have been so wise and powerful.
"Poof!" Alan couldn't help but laugh.
It's not that I think this exaggerated story is funny, but from this young man, Alan actually saw a trace of Wei Xiaobao played by Xing Ye, and it was a waste not to tell the story. It's a pity that such a clever young man was brainwashed by Joshua.
"That person, don't look at it, it's you, what are you laughing at?"
The young man heard Allen's laughter, pointed at Allen, and asked dissatisfiedly.
The diners in the tavern also glared at Allen, and this person actually let out such a laugh when others told the glorious deeds of the High Priest, was this disdain for the High Priest?
It's unforgivable!
Alan looked at the diners around him who were glaring at him, and he was stunned for a moment. I just smiled lightly, and I even provoked the anger of the public?
