Currently, Luke is locked up in the church.

At first, Vincent, despite the bishop's objections, tortured him for several days, and gave him the entire demon torture bucket.

When he realized that he could not dig up any useful information, he threw the inhumanoid object to the church.

Anyway, the leader of the cult has already given it to the church, and even if the bishop can't get the information, he can at least use it to ask for credit.

Of course, Vincent didn't think that the church was full of good men and women, and the torture methods must be worse than monsters, so he still wanted to ask if there was anything new.

"Lord Lord, Luke is dead." The bishop replied in frustration, "I lost my breath last night, and I couldn't be cured, and I wasted a lot of holy water." ”

"If you're dead, you're dead, and people are starving to death in the territory every day, what's all the fuss." Vincent's face was a little gloomy, but his tone was quite relaxed, "Do you want it?" My necromancer probably can put it to waste. ”

"What's the use of being dead?" The bishop disagreed, "Your brains have been hollowed out for you, and they have no intelligence value. ”

"There are so many monsters in the Demon Domain, he is not worthy of being a specimen like this...... This thing is useless to me, at most to my newbies, but as a friend, I have to think about you. ”

Vincent glanced at the crown on the bishop's head, and his gray hair, his tone became genuinely concerned, but his expression was full of demonic temptation.

"Give me some time, and I'll transform you into something that can move, even speak, and you can take it to the higher church for credit," Vincent gestured upward, "Only when you reach a higher position can you use more power to kill this group of cultists." ”

The Bishop looked at Vincent with a frown, as if he didn't quite believe that he could be so kind.

What kind of spirit is a demon who does not want to come to the coastal territory for thousands of miles, without self-interest, and only for the benefit of others?

It always feels like a restless and well-intentioned spirit.

Originally, the demons and the church were both opposing sides of faith for a long period of time.

The demons believe in the god of darkness and chaos, which is called the demon god by the general races on the continent.

On the mainland, led by the human race, the main god of faith is the god of light and order.

During the war, the Holy Knights and Magisters, the gods of light and order, played a huge role in thwarting the demons' attempts to occupy the entire continent.

Compared to the Church of Light, which is keen to spread faith, the demons do not attach importance to faith and believers.

This group of simple-minded demons has their own missionary methods, transforming members of other races into undead creatures or monsters, and using contracts and magical constraints to make them directly corrupt the followers of the demon gods.

This practice is not only to increase the number of soldiers, but also to preach faith, killing two birds with one stone, in the eyes of the demons is an extremely reasonable behavior.

In the eyes of other races, this is pure wishful thinking and a violation of the dignity of life.

So even if you are not a believer in the god of light and order, you are deeply disgusted by what the demons do.

In other territories occupied by the demons, there has been a lot of turmoil and rebellion due to the fact that the high priest of the demon god always asks the territory to sacrifice the population.

Revolts and repressions have occurred one after another, causing the development of those territories to stagnate for thirty years, and the other races, which make up the vast majority of them, have a bad relationship with the demon rulers.

The conflict of beliefs is also manifested in the suppression of the original church by the demons, although the church has shown a neutral attitude and does not openly support the people against the lords of the demons, but the relationship between the two sides is still very tense.

Vinson's two brothers are exemplars of hard work and uncompromising in this regard.

If Vincent could make five pairs of wheels, they would definitely drive them down the street.

Unfortunately, the sixth prince was also an outlier in the family, his personality was not strong, and he preferred withdrawn private hobbies to politics, but was not as prone to conflict with other races as other siblings.

After arriving in the Primordial Territory, it didn't take long for Vincennes to get closer to the main figures in the territory, especially the good personal relationship with Bishop Bellman, which surprised many people.

For in addition to the proper sharing of the power and wealth of the territory, Vincent had another thing that would attract the bishop.

This is a joint crackdown on cults.

In Bellman's view, the matter is generally beneficial to his own unilateral side.

Cracking down on cults is to defend the faith and is the bishop's merit.

"What do you want me to do?" The bishop hesitated for a moment, but asked frankly, "I admit that I am a selfish person, but I cannot betray my faith and serve the demon god. ”

"There are so many people who want to serve the Demon God, and I don't need you." Vincent snorted, looked at the bishop with reproach and regret, and said, "I also have selfish intentions, and selfish people can use each other. ”

This time he didn't say cooperation, but directly said the word "utilization" this time.

"I'm just a power-hungry old man who doesn't want to waste my life." The bishop smiled wryly and asked, "Will you tell me what your selfish motives are?" ”

"It's simple, turn my territory into a nest for producing happiness, you can call it a happy camp." Vincent, in a very demonic way, replied unabashedly, "Everyone produces happiness for me, and I draw strength from it." ”

"Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean." The bishop wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "How is happiness produced?" ”

"People are well fed, have a stable job, get an education, raise their offspring, and live out their old age in peace." Vincent said solemnly, "After these little problems are solved, they will go all out to have fun, and they want more people to be like them." ”

Ha? Is this something for demons to consider?

The bishop couldn't help but be speechless, he really didn't understand whether his cognition couldn't keep up with the times, or if the devil's method of tempting people to depravity was iterative.

Do the demons plan to use this method to disgrace most nobles and shame them to death?

"In order for my people to live in peace and to be more happy," Vincent added, "all unrealistic heresies must be outlawed, especially the Liberal Cult." ”

"Absolute freedom is absolute slavery, especially the slavery of the strong over the weak. In this hypocritical and cold social system, happiness from the heart can become scarcer than the hair on the top of your head. ”

The words are disrespectful, but they are demonic.

This time, the lord's words provoked the bishop's contemplation.

Demons are actually playing with philosophy......

But facts aside, the belief in the God of Liberty is a real scourge for the church.

For the belief in the god of liberty that is rampant in the territory, whether it is the traditional god of light and order, or the alien god of chaos and darkness, it is the object of its disapproval.

In order to be protected by the God of Freedom, believers must abandon the faith of salvation and convert to the God of Freedom.

In contrast to the conservative traditional gods, the gods of liberty allowed their followers to live a more secular and even indulgent life, while no longer demanding higher morality in the priesthood, but instead encouraged those with wealth, status, bloodline, and fame to serve as priests.

After torture and confessions, Luke was the priest of the underground order of Silver Dragon Castle, and he used the cultist's network of contacts to develop business, and pulled people who joined the Chamber of Commerce and had business dealings with the Chamber of Commerce into the Order.

Elsa and Sadaka, who were obedient to the lord, indicated the cult's hiding place.

Outside of the Silver Dragon Castle is a farmstead with a small castle that serves as a base camp for cult meetings and ceremonies, and although it has been set on fire after Luke's arrest, Vincent and the church have found traces of it.

Here, more than 400 bodies of the dead who had been killed or committed suicide were found, and hundreds of people who were imprisoned in the dungeon and had no way to escape, who had been suffocated to death.

Almost half of these people have traces of curses, but the fetus on the deceased seems to have been taken away in advance.

The vast altar hall has collapsed, but idols, offerings, and a large number of sacrificial vessels can still be found inside.

Compared to the strange statue with the head of an eagle, the sacrificial vessels made of gold and silver were worth a lot, but the most horrifying thing was the living sacrifices that were brutally tortured and killed.

This includes the living, as well as dwarves, elves, orcs, and demons.

According to the confessions of the captive cultists, if they reached a certain rank in the cult, they received a special honor - communion of communion.

The sacrament is the fresh fetus taken from the seedbed.

As long as you eat enough, you can be like Boss Luke and gain the power to rival the Battle Master.

If such a strange and cruel thing is reported to the upper echelons of the church, it will definitely trigger the encirclement and suppression of the cult.

For Bellman, it's a great credit.

"Although the cults in the cities have been eliminated, there are still cultists hiding in the countryside, vainly trying to trap us and starve us to death by encircling the cities from the countryside and subverting my happy base camp."

Vincent's eyes showed a fierce brilliance, and his slender fingers made a finger mark on the tabletop.

"My lord, what will happen to you if I am driven away by them? Destined to be next, right? ”

Thinking of that scene, Bellman couldn't help but shudder.

"I understand what you mean, we have to continue to work together." The Bishop stood up and held out his hand to Vincent, "What do you want from me?" ”

"I will crusade against the rebels, but I must be famous," Vincent made a gesture of chopping off his head and wiping his neck, "I hope you will issue a proclamation to excommunicate all unrepentant rebels." ”

"It's not a pity that those who are willing to fall and unrepentant accidentally become undead creatures who move bricks, right?"
