397. Liberation Theology
"Reincarnation ......"
Alphen's eyes moved:
"Then my family ......"
"As long as you are willing to practice the truth motto of Gio Skua, the whole family can enjoy the opportunity to be reincarnated."
The old man said earnestly:
"I don't force you, kid, you can stay here for a few more days until you have a good rest, and it's okay if you don't want to. But we're leaving soon, so we can't provide you with much to eat. β
"You're leaving? Where else are you going? Outside of here, it's all barren ruins! β
Alfin couldn't help but ask.
In his opinion, the other party has so many medicines, food and manpower, and they still have to go to the disaster area, which is simply a tyrannical thing, and it is simply a death!
However, the old man just said lightly:
"We're going north."
"Going north...... Do you mean the royal capital? β
"At this time when the world is in turmoil and starvation, the kingdom council is indifferent, and the knights of the high table are closed, and they don't care whether the common people live or dieβthis kingdom does not treat you and me as human beings, so why should we be loyal to them!"
The old man made a generous statement:
"If the king is ruthless, blame the people for being unjust. The kingdom is not willing to save the people, but the gods are willing to save it! The Kingdom is unwilling to provide relief, so our church goes to the most dangerous places! The knights of the high table enjoy the glory and wealth alone, colluding with the void, and not caring about the life and death of the commoners, what is the use of such a desolate kingdom and kings! β
As soon as the old man said this, the refugees in the ward who had been treated looked sideways. The old man raised his hand and shouted in an infectious voice:
"There is no way for the king, there is no way for the council! Is there anyone else avenging us? β
"Everyone is a child of the kingdom, and they are all invaded and persecuted by the Void, why can the high table and the knight lord even have two lives. And we, the flat-headed people who are digging in the mud, are going to starve to death?! β
"The higher echelons of the kingdom have never treated us as equals, they call us untouchables! We're just numbers and labor, we're nothing, and we're going to be devoured by the Void Chase! Is this reasonable? Only wild beasts can condone the killing of their compatriots, and we, the human beings, are the spirits of all things, and only God has the power to determine the dignity of man! β
"The king doesn't have it! The Kingdom Council does not have it! The kingdom's gungon rentier class is unworthy! β
"Are you willing?! How can human life be determined by fellow human beings, who have only accumulated power and the merits of their ancestors, why should everything you produce and work be taken away by the nobles of the kingdom? β
The old man waved his arm:
"We never thought of betrayal."
"Luckily, the gods are above! His Majesty Gio Skua tells us: We are going to get back what belongs to us! β
"God has given men souls and spirits, and the king of men has no right to take away the fat and anointing of the people!"
"This is not the kingdom of kings and nobles, it is our kingdom! The Mandate of Heaven guides us forward, gives us the power of life and death, and how can you, O King of mortals, usurp the majesty of God! β
"But the kingdom council is bent on doing its own thing, and with their arrogance and contempt, they have abandoned the people of the earth, preferring to be like a snake in the void, and to curry favor with foreign invaders in every way they will not save you."
"However, the gods are infinitely merciful, and His Majesty Gio Skua will always accept every believer!"
"Since the upper classes have abandoned us, let them fall! Take back the country that belongs to us! β
"If the rebellious demons who disobey the will of God dare to resist, let the kingdom burn! In the midst of the fire, we will break away from vanity and build the kingdom of God on earth! β
The old man shouted loudly, and the suffering, sadness, and sorrow of the past were all turned into fuel for anger at this moment.
The enthusiasm of the people grew stronger, and only someone in the crowd was heard shouting:
"Destroy the falsehood! On the land of God! β
The next moment, like a pressure cooker exploding, the human voice instantly broke through the tent and continued to hover in the sky.
"Long live Gio Skua The gods of delusion guide us forward! β
"The kingdom is merciless, and has forsaken us, so what shall we recognize in this council of birds? It's against him! β
"Those knights have bright armor, but I can only live here on the flesh and blood of childrenβit's all the knights' inaction! We're the majorityβthey're the ones who take what is rightfully ours! β
"Our land has been invaded by the Void, our lives have been sucked by the kingdom, everyone is miserable, everyone on this planet is the same! As long as we are united under the banner of Gio Skua crown, this country is ours! The gods have said it! β
"Delusion! Break the delusion! Break the delusion! β
Alphen looked at all this in a daze, and the dream he had once had for the knight of the kingdom was now shattered little by little.
In the midst of the indignation of the crowd, Alfin's mentality gradually changed, he could not immediately accept the belief in the gods, but the resentment of the kingdom and the knights reached its peak at this moment.
He gently pulled the corner of the old man's clothes, watched the other party turn his head, revealing his blue eyes, opened his mouth, made up his mind, and said:
ββ¦β¦ On the way here, I heard an anecdote. I think it might be useful to you, but I'm afraid to say it...... I, I don't know if I should say it or not. β
"Don't be afraid, kid." The old man said gently, "Tell me, what do you know?" β
ββ¦β¦ It's the Fermi Institute. While sheltering from the rain, I heard a team of research institute personnel talking. β
Alphen Says:
"They say that the knights of the Kingdom Council are assisting the people of the Institute in tracking the quality rain. The goal is to capture a man called ......"
He paused, frowned and thought for a while, and said:
"Like, it seems to be a guy called 'Quality.'"
The old man bowed slightly, motioning for the other party to continue.
"They say that the knight of the high table attaches great importance to the 'quality direction', thinking that as long as the quality direction is caught, the quality rain can be controlled, so as to drive the void away, and the movement trajectory of civilians can be strictly controlled through the quality rain, so that we will always be trapped in a fixed area by the quality rain, constantly working and cultivating. It seemed to be a very confidential matter, and I was frightened and fled quickly, and if the institute knew that I had done such a thing, it might kill me......"
The more Alphen thought about it, the more angry he became, and in the end he was not afraid of any pursuit, and said:
"It seems like those people from the institute are going to a place called 'The Tower' where the knights of the high table are entertained, and if you have the ability, just go there and teach these bastards a good lesson!"
"We are only mortal and have no right to decide their fate."
The old man slowly straightened up, handed the young man something in his arms, and turned to leave:
"God is qualified to decide the fate of mortals."
The old man had been away for a long time, and Alphen looked down at the heavy thing that the other party had handed him in his arms, almost suffocating.
It was a pure, flawless, sparkling gold.
A gold coin, a gold coin of terrifying purity!
Alphen was almost stupefied.
Faintly, he seemed to hear a voice that constantly echoed in the air:
"And I am God."
