There are two sides to everything, and there is no more eye-catching papacy in the godless era, and the sequelae brought about by the death of faith continue to ferment in various parts of the mainland.

The aristocracy was preoccupied with securing its dominance, ignoring the significance of the gods to the common people.

The heart was empty and confused, and it happened to be taken advantage of by the cult organization, and for a while, all kinds of evil gods on the continent were flying all over the sky.

Southeastern Province, Blood Moon County.

Since the opening of the Hundred Mile Corridor, it has become an important trade route connecting the Alpha Kingdom and the Hessian Kingdom.

Caravans come and go every day, making this remote county bustling.

It's just that Viscount Otum has quirks and doesn't like outsiders to enter his lair, and the original county town has become the exclusive domain of the lord.

Except for the nobles of the southeastern provinces, who were allowed to enter and leave freely, everyone else who wanted to enter had to be notified, and most of the time they were not allowed.

In this context, the small town of Kama, thirty miles outside the county town, gradually prospered because of its geographical location, which undertook the rest and material supply of caravans.

A humble grocery store has opened in the corner of the town, but the old shopkeeper in charge of the business is not interested.

The Holy See was torn apart, and let them, the shadows lurking in the cult, completely become lonely ghosts.

If that's all there is to it, the Skeleton Lord will only be happy. The decaying Holy See has finally collapsed, and the glory of the Lord of the Dawn will once again shine on the world.

However, the news of the fall of the gods and blood rain from the sky gave him a heavy hammer.

The Lord of Dawn, who has believed in it all his life, is just gone, and the impact on him is really big.

"Grandpa, it's time to open!"

Guna said with a bounce.

More than ten years have passed in a flash, and this strange elf little girl has not changed at all, as if the years have lost their effect on her.

It's all appearances, it's not that her body has stopped growing, it's that the rate of growth has slowed down dramatically.

The difference is that the little girl who used to be weak has now become a peerless powerhouse.

Norman, as the Skeleton Lord, was no match for his granddaughter a year ago.

After the blood rain fell from the sky, Gu Na's strength skyrocketed rapidly, and she directly entered the realm of the Holy Realm.

In just over ten years, he has such a strong cultivation, and if it spreads, it will definitely be able to cause a sensation on the entire continent.

"Got it!"

The Skeleton Holy Lord said weakly.

The Lord of the Dawn fell, and the glory of the gods did not need him to reshape again, and the power to support his progress was suddenly gone, and the spirit of the whole person seemed to be hollowed out.

I knew that there would be this day, and I should have died in the demon invasion back then. Barely picking up a life, now all that is left is torture.

At a time when other cults were vying to expand their territory and do things, the decadence of the Skeleton Lord directly affected the development of the Skeleton Society.

"Grandpa, I noticed that something is wrong, there have been a lot of soldiers here who have recently returned from the front line.

It stands to reason that after the end of their service mission, they should go home to farm, but the training did not stop.

The nearby lords are constantly training, and I'm afraid it won't be long before there will be another war! ”

Hearing his granddaughter's complaint, Norman smiled slightly.

"Silly girl, it's better to fight a war, when will the Alpha Kingdom be too peaceful?"

The war was terrible, but the more I experienced it, the more I got used to it.

In recent years, the Skull and Bones Society has been mainly active in the Alpha Kingdom, and the Normans have long since adapted to frequent wars.

If it was in the past, he might have used the opportunity of the war to expand the strength of the Skull and Bones Society.

Now that there is no goal to strive for, Norman has no interest in expanding the team.

While suffering a blow, he gradually understands the nature of the world.

The continent of Aslant pursues the law of the jungle, and after the fall of the gods, the noble group that has mastered extraordinary power has become the masters of this world.

A war-torn country like the Alpha Kingdom is the hope of countless ordinary people.

Because of the needs of the war, the aristocratic group had to hand over part of its power to the commoners.

An invisible upward channel, essentially opened, but the path is very narrow and winding.

No matter how low the probability is, as long as the base is large enough, then everything is possible.

Even if it is the most superficial cultivation method, there are still some civilian geniuses who have become famous in cultivation.

It is a hidden danger in other countries, but in the Alpha Kingdom, it is the backbone of the army, and it has become the most "trusted" person of the noble lords.

This "trust" is based entirely on war, because war requires it, so they value it, cultivate it, and take it as a vassal at the right time.

I don't know the follow-up development, anyway, for the children of serfs in the first generation, this kind of attention is enough to make them work hard.

Only a very small number of Hanhan aristocrats not only did not reuse talents, but were forced to the opposite side by these people, and finally became a new force in the development of the cult.

The core reason why the Skeleton Society is not developing smoothly is that there are too few Hanhan nobles in the Alpha Kingdom.

It's not that there are few fools among the nobility, but that there are few fools who survive. In every large-scale war, these idiots are the first to be eliminated.

In this land, the script of the revenge of the children of destiny is not easy to act.

didn't wait for them to come back and pretend to be forced to slap their faces, and in frequent wars, they helped them send their enemies away in advance.

Knowing the essence and staying in the southeastern province without moving the nest is enough to prove that Norman really doesn't want to toss.

"But grandpa, lately I have always dreamed of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and in my dream, a group of monsters descended and shed rivers of blood on the mainland......"

After listening to Guna's explanation, Norman's face changed instantly. The hunch of his granddaughter, that is not ordinary accurate.

Without this guiding light, he would have been crushed and scattered, just like many of his cult peers.

"Guna, I'll handle these things, don't tell outsiders!"

After pondering for a moment, Norman instructed solemnly.

Since his granddaughter became powerful, in order not to reveal his identity, he reduced the frequency of contact with his subordinates.

Now he has to move, he doesn't care if the mainland is chaotic or not, the key is that the chaotic times can't affect him.

Norman, who has no ambition, just wants to be a good grandfather.

Referring to historical myths and legends, people with prophetic abilities are the trendsetters of the times.

Either become a hero admired by everyone, or become a demon that will be remembered for thousands of years.

Combined with the background of the fall of the gods, the danger inside can be imagined, and Norman does not want his granddaughter to be involved in this kind of turmoil.

The whole continent has been affected, and it is impossible to avoid it completely, and the best option is to find a tall man to stand on top first.

Without the slightest hesitation, Norman immediately thought of a fake cover-up.

The time has come to test the professional quality of cult organizations!

It is too risky to make up a contemporary soothsayer, and it is better to pick a big man from the long river of history.

It just so happens that the major forces in the mainland are trying their best to collect ancient books related to mythology, and there are relics unearthed every now and then.

It's not a surprise to have an extra piece of ancient ruins.

Anyway, as long as the news spreads, it will be a problem that the high-level leaders of the major forces need to face, and it is better than their grandchildren worrying alone.

……

After all, only a few people want to retire, and many more choose to continue to mix in the cult ranks.

It doesn't matter if the future is not promising, the key is that joining a cult is a road of no return.

Unless the faith is religious enough, it is difficult to resist all kinds of temptations.

Very few of the shadows sent by the Holy See are fighting for their beliefs, and most of them are in a state of manipulation, and they have already degenerated.

The loss of the restraint of the upper line, apart from increasing their freedom, does not affect these people from engaging in cult activities.

Without the mountain of gods in their hearts, the behavior of a number of cult organizations has become more and more rampant.

Madness is bound to suffer disaster, and cult activities are rampant, and they soon attract the blows of nobles from all over the world.

Ordinary people are easy to fool, but these people have no force. It's okay to follow the flag and shout, but it's embarrassing to pull the flag and rebel.

There is a commotion everywhere, and Xue Yueling is naturally no exception.

It's just that the situation here is special, the number of garrisons is slightly more than 100 million, and the young and strong are all reserves, and all of them are bound by military law.

The people also have a grassroots armor protection system, and the management is detailed to the villages, which greatly hinders the spread of cult ideas.

The lack of faith brought about by the fall of the Lord of Dawn is indeed a big problem.

However, the famous Hudson, who is himself the patron saint of the kingdom, is replaceable to a certain extent.

According to territorial law, reports of the activities of members of the cult can be rewarded with a minimum amount of hardware.

One moment everyone was talking happily and agreeing to fight together for the "great cause of the true God", and the next moment they went out to report and receive the reward.

The arrest of one cult member after another soon attracted Hudson's attention.

There is no doubt that these cults are certainly outsiders.

The old cult gangs within the kingdom have all suffered losses under Master Ha, and they know that Master Ha's territory is a forbidden land.

Even if you develop the organization, you can't do things.

As soon as they came up, they challenged the mainland's number one general, and the high-level leaders of the cult organization said: They are just ruthless, not brains.

"Have you found the person behind it?"

Hudson asked with concern.

The cult sounds very terrifying, but in fact, most of them are ordinary people, and the proportion of cultivators is very small.

Things like spreading the belief in evil gods and developing and growing the organization are all done by ordinary people.

Cultivators are all middle-level and high-level cult organizations, and except in the early stage of starting a business, they generally do not personally go out to do such high-risk work as recruiting followers.

"Nope!

Duke, the origins of the members of these cult organizations are too complicated, judging from the information collected during the interrogation, they are from more than a dozen cult organizations.

Except for a few old cult organizations, the rest are new and have never heard of it.

In terms of their style, these guys are obviously novices, and they are not as rigorous as those old cult organizations.

It is estimated that it is a small cult organization, and under their banner, it is secretly recruiting followers. ”

Michelle replied calmly.

On the issue of cracking down on cults, the Ministry of Public Security has a wealth of experience. He has long been proficient in the ways in which cults are played.

It is not a secret at all which cult organization is good at what and what methods it is accustomed to using to preach.

In the underground world, the Snow Moon Collar Security Department is also a well-known existence.

Not because of how strong their combat effectiveness is, but mainly because they have a fast reaction speed and are often able to find cult dens in the shortest possible time.

When the cult organization was discovered, it never dragged its feet and immediately dispatched garrisons to encircle and suppress it.

But Hudson's private army can fight again, no matter which cult organization it is, it will lie down when it comes here.

"Let the people of the July Society participate in the investigation and find out who is behind it as soon as possible.

If the den is in the territory of the kingdom, I will mobilize the garrison to directly destroy it.

If the nest is abroad, let the Fallen Angels go out for a while! ”

Hudson said domineeringly.

Cult organizations have been repeatedly banned, on the one hand, because of the solidified class, and more importantly, because of the support of big forces behind the scenes.

Cult organizations rarely go to Hudson's territory to do things, not because the cult organization is timid and afraid of things, but mainly because the supporters behind the scenes are afraid of getting into trouble.

Just one cross-border law enforcement has made countless people jealous.

Theoretically speaking, in peacetime, Hudson could only mobilize troops in his jurisdiction, and had no right to command the entire army.

How can Master Hudson's face be big enough, and everyone is willing to buy it without authorization.

Destroying cult organizations is not a matter of violating the rules. The generals of the garrison and the local nobles and lords of the local nobility will give this face.

The program that should have been taken is directly in place here in one step, and they are not given time to react at all.

If it is a cult supported by the internal forces of the kingdom, it will be even more tragic, and it will be surrounded and suppressed by its own people.

There is no way, this kind of thing will not see the light of day. Except for the top of the major families, the other children didn't know about it at all.

By the time they received the news, the encirclement and suppression operations had begun.

At that point, it's too late to find a way to erase the connection, who dares to risk the world's condemnation to hunt down cult members!

Even Hudson, who was secretly killed, would pretend that nothing had happened.

"Marshal, please rest assured, we will join forces with the July Society to find out who is behind the scenes in the shortest possible time!"

Michelle immediately assured.

Looking for a cult still requires professionals.

The July Society has never engaged in cult activities, but politically they are the largest cult group, and everyone still recognizes them in the underground world.

According to the understanding of normal people, with the deviant thinking of the July Society, it is destined to be impossible to be tolerated by the kingdom.

Hudson is an exception, and he can face the thoughts that others fear like tigers.

It is too politically risky to directly close it, and it is nothing to cooperate secretly.

……

Southeastern Province.

After receiving the news of the excavation of ancient ruins, Governor Pierce rushed to the scene non-stop.

Looking at the dilapidated palace in front of you, you can judge from the traces of the building that it is not a product of this era.

"Count, there's a mural found inside!"

Hearing the voice of the guards, Governor Pierce cautiously walked towards the inner sanctum.

Excavating ancient ruins is risky, and normal dilapidated palaces are fine, but they are afraid of some monsters sealed.

"The mural is starting to weather, hurry up and record the words and patterns on it!"

At the moment when Count Pierce spoke, the nobleman who was in charge of the excavation handed over the photographic stone.

As professional excavators, they don't make such low-level mistakes.

"Earl, from the analysis of the architectural structure, there are serious traces of orc culture.

Preliminary judgment should be 8,000 years ago, or an older building.

The words and patterns, which are also full of orc style, should have been left by some big man in the orc empire.

These things are very important for us to study the history and culture of the Orc Empire, but unfortunately there are too few documents! ”

The old man said with a little excitement.

The Alpha Kingdom and the Orcs are mortal enemies, but it does not affect everyone's research on the Orc culture.

Anyway, the orcs are to be wiped out physically, and retaining these civilization inheritances will not affect the rule of the kingdom.

"The content on the mural will be deciphered as soon as possible, and I will be useful if I copy a few copies of the photo stone.

Continue to organize people to excavate the ruins, be sure to be careful of magic fluctuations, and do not touch the unknown magic array. ”

Earl Pierce instructed with a little disappointment.

I thought I could have a big harvest, but now it seems to be an ordinary palace.

It's okay to study the history and culture of orcs, but if you want to get more information, the probability is very low.

After watching the frescoes turn to ashes, the group began the excavation work again, completely oblivious to the difference between the weathered frescoes and the building materials of the palace.

Of course, even if they find something different, they won't dig deeper.

Under the ravages of time, it is only natural that the murals will be weathered. The material is different, so you can only ask the orcs who built the palace.

It is enough to detect the traces of time and inspect the cylinder, who cares about a pile of dust!

The excavation of the ruins continued, and the original face of the abandoned palace was gradually exposed to everyone.

It's a pity that the literature that everyone was looking forward to has not appeared for a long time. It's as if the mural just now is the whole message.
