Chapter 488: Awakening from a Dream
Chapter 488 [Awakening]
There is no imperial power, there is no national law...... There is no restraint, no imprisonment.
A piece of virgin land, a blank piece of paper, can be left to its own ...... Remove tens of thousands of the most devout believers, form villages, form towns, and finally ...... Become a nation!
A theocracy, the kingdom of God!
This is simply the ultimate dream that the Temple of Light has dreamed of for thousands of years!
What a prospect!
There is no longer any restraint in the vast Great 6, and there is no longer any hindrance to the teachings of the Temple of Light......
As long as it takes effort, tens of thousands of devout believers are removed, supplemented by the elite clergy in the temple, and the loyal and brave Holy Knights as a barrier.
It can be a long process, 10, 20, 30, 50......
But don't worry!
At least, judging from this depiction, the difficulty of success is relative to the continued entanglement of the powerful royal family and the government forces trapped in the Roland Empire...... Much easier!
In thirty years, fifty years, will the Church be able to kill the royal family and turn the Roland Empire into a theocratic state?
No matter how arrogant Heynckes was, he knew that this would never be possible!
But if you have a hundred years, if you follow the plan that Darling Chen said, the possibility of success is very great!
And...... Why not give it a try?
Maybe some people will be lost with the initial investment, but if it is successful...... Then what you get is the goal that countless generations of sages of the Temple of Light have dreamed of!
In that kingdom of God, there is no longer an emperor, no more prime ministers, no more government officials...... There are no longer so insensitive, unbelieving people......
What a wonderful world it was!
Give it a try!
β¦β¦
Heynckes was gone, and the Pope was in a hurry. It even seems that he has forgotten his own intention, and he has forgotten that he came to investigate the past from Darling Chen.
Watching the Pope leave, Chen Daolin showed a cold smile on his face, he slowly lifted the wine jar and sat back in the rocking chair. Two more sips.
Lanlan, if it's you...... If you really die overseas, then I might as well ask this pope to send some more people to bury you!
β¦β¦
Of course, Chen Daolin will not worry about the church sending a large number of people to the sea. The expedition is different from 6, and it will really make a so-called "kingdom of God".
In this world, no one knows better than Chen Daolin about the terrible and dangerous journey of the vast sea expedition!
You know, at the dawn of the Age of Discovery, the dangers of ocean voyages were no better than suicide.
In this era, tens of thousands of immigrants were made. Relying on the navigation technology and conditions of this era, the expedition overseas is different from 6?
Chen Daolin wants to laugh as long as he thinks about it!
Take 10,000 steps back...... Even if the church succeeds.
Really found the big 6 overseas and built a country there?
A purely religious state with a theocracy?
Hahahaha......
Not to mention that there are probably still a lot of indigenous aliens, dwarves, orcs, and elves on that big 6......
Even if these expeditionary people of the Temple of Light were able to defeat the natives......
A purely religious country with the integration of religion and state, this kind of thing is a joke in Chen Daolin's opinion!
Darlingo from the real world. Know at least one common sense:
In the real world, all the religious countries that still exist in the "unity of church and state" are synonymous with backwardness and ignorance compared to all the countries.
Pope: Theocracy instead of state power?
The ancient history of Europe has proven that this set of things simply does not work.
β¦β¦
When Chen Daolin walked out of this small courtyard, it was already late at night.
He didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts.
Swagger out of the trail and wander the streets late at night.
Probably because of the celebration of the emperor's wedding, the festive atmosphere in the imperial capital is still strong, and there are still some shops on the street that have never been closed, and there are drunken passers-by staggering and laughing. There is a noise.
For this kind of person, even the patrol security team passing by will not take a second look.
Chen Daolin knew that when he walked out of the path, there were many pairs of eyes staring at him in the dark.
He just smiled faintly. And bothered.
When he entered the imperial capital today, he didn't intend to hide it from anyone. Swaggered out of the magic academy, and then swaggered all the way to the imperial capital, swaggering into the imperial capital gate - in the whole process, people were watching, and the guards and royal guards who surrounded the magic academy were not blind.
Moreover, even Pope Heynckes knew that he had entered the city, that he was in that small courtyard, and that he had come to see him.
So...... Shiloh, I must have known about it for a long time.
β¦β¦
"He's gone?"
In the palace, Shiloh had a solemn face, staring at Gu Le standing in front of him.
Gu Le was dressed in a white robe, and he looked a little bit like the long-sleeved and good dancing in the imperial capital in the past.
Listening to Xiluo's question, Gu Le slowly raised his eyelids: "Yes, he has already left, and his subordinates have followed him all the way, watching him go out of the city and in the direction of the Academy of Magic." There were people along the way, and I think there would be a debriefing back later. β
Shiloh fell silent.
After a while, he seemed to be thinking, and said with a wry smile: "When he entered the city today, he walked around the imperial capital with a swagger, and then ran to the courtyard of the late Blue Sea Master's former residence to sit for a while, and dug out a jar of wine under the courtyard and came out?
"So far, it's all he's done, and that's ...... He didn't seem to want to hide it from us. Gu Le also smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, with his current ability, if he doesn't want us to know, my people won't be able to keep up with him." He deliberately didn't hide his tracks, just to let us know. β
"Hmph. Do I want to thank him for not deliberately publicizing his identity, which can be regarded as saving face for me, the emperor. Shiloh smiled coldly.
Gu Le frowned: "Your Majesty, with all due respect, with Darling Chen's current strength, there are not many ways we can restrain him." He can restrain himself and not make trouble, and I think we can already be satisfied with this situation. β
A hint of spark flashed in Shiloh's eyes, but then he calmed down and said lightly: "Yes, I can indeed be satisfied." β
He glanced at Gu Le: "Find a way to inquire." Heynckes ran to meet him, and the two talked about something. I'm curious when Darling Chan became so close to the Temple of Light. β
Gu Le thought for a while and said, "In the northwest, under the command of Darling Chen, there are people from the Temple of Light. I heard that Montoya was playing under him. Darling Chan's rise to prominence in the northwest must have been aided by the Temple of Light. ιxiΓ ...... I even suspect that when he fled the imperial capital, the Temple of Light secretly helped. β
"......" Shiloh was silent for a while, shaking his head: "There is no need to pursue that matter, the matter has passed, and there is no point in pursuing this kind of thing now." You go and inquire. Let's see what exactly the Temple of Light has to do with him, if necessary...... You can use some pieces that are buried deeply. β
Gu Le's expression was solemn, nodded solemnly, and then turned around and went out.
Shiloh sat there, fingers tapping lightly on the arm of his chair.
"The former residence of the Blue Ocean Master...... When did this Darling Chen get involved with the late Blue Ocean Master. and the jar of wine buried in the ground...... As a disciple of the master, I don't know about this, but how did he know that there was a jar of wine there......? When the master died, this guy hadn't come to the imperial capital yet. β
β¦β¦
The sound of chirping birds woke Lan Lan from her sleep.
She rolled over, and felt the pervasive soreness of her body hit her like a tidal wave.
Obviously woke up. But I felt that the taste of tiredness was so clear!
Lan Lan knew that this was a sign that his body was too tired and weak.
In the past half a year, from the sea to 6 places, I have almost come all the way without a single stable day, and every day is like struggling on the line of life and death!
Both spiritually. The body lì, health, are already strictly overdrawn!
This kind of overdraft is by no means something that can be made up for just by sleeping like this for one night.
Lan Lan reluctantly sat up, she took a deep breath, listening to the sound of chirping birds outside, and for a while, she was in a trance.
You can smell it in your nose, and the air is filled with the smell of fresh grass, which is the smell of life.
And the faint smell of flowers mixed with that.
What I heard in my ears was the chirping and singing of the birds......
It's a treehouse -- a tree hole, to be exact.
Lan Lan is no stranger to this kind of tree hole, she once entered the tribe of the elves and lived in this kind of tree hole when she was doing penance in the frozen forest.
The hole was small, and the entrance to the hole was a hanging green rattan, as if forming a simple curtain.
Lan Lan sat there in a trance for a long time, and finally found out something wrong from her seemingly dull brain.
She finally understood where the slightest feeling in her heart was coming from.
This...... Bird calls?
Since coming to this abandoned big 6, this road has been a place of death!
There are no beasts or creatures, no birds, not even snakes!
Only those murderous, dangerous monsters of all kinds!
Bird call?
I haven't heard this voice in almost a year!
She stood up, sluggish, and walked to the hole in the tree, and lifted the curtain to look out.
The sun has risen.
Through the lush canopy, the sun shone sparsely.
In front of you, you can see a lot of verdant and vibrant.
Beyond the hollow was a stout trunk covered with green foliageβseven or eight meters above the ground, standing at the mouth of the hollow, looking down......
In the dense forest, in the early morning sun, those elves had already begun their day's life.
There are beautiful young female elves, who are collecting the morning dew beside the plants, holding jars and bottles in their hands, jumping back and forth beside the plants with light bodies, and their bodies are like dancing.
There are elven warriors with slender and sturdy bodies. Carrying a longbow on his back, he haunts the far periphery of the forest, seemingly training.
In my ears, I could still hear the sound of the ancient horn unique to the elves.
Lan Lan suddenly felt a little dazed in her heart......
It's like a person who has just struggled out of the line of life and death. I saw such a peaceful and quiet place...... The huge sense of gap in her heart made Lan Lan feel a little at a loss.
"You're up?"
The sound of the cold night came from the side.
Lan Lan suddenly turned around, and saw the slender figure of the cold night, standing lightly on a tree trunk that she didn't want to be away from, her face was still veiled, and she was carrying a longbow. But he was carrying a kettle in his hand. Judging by the arc of her eyes, she should be smiling.
"I ...... Is this in ......" Lan Lan squirmed her lips and asked softly.
"In my tribe. β
Cold Night approached Lan Lan's side and said slowly, "When we arrived at the edge of the tribe, you immediately fainted. I know you've been struggling lately and have almost exhausted all of your energy. Your body is weak. If you don't recuperate, you'll get seriously ill. β
Lan Lan ignored the words behind the cold night, she just looked at the elf tribe under the tree stupidly: "Yours...... Tribe?"
"Yes. The voice of the cold night was warm: "You don't have to worry about the dangers, the threats of death, and you don't have to worry about the lives of your companions...... Now, here I can assure you. It's safe here - it's the safest place on the entire Abandoned Big 6, and it's the only forest on the Big 6! The magic light of the elves is shrouded here, and those terrible monsters can't invade here. β
Lan Lan's eyes returned to focus, and she looked at the cold night: "My ...... What about the companions?"
"They're all still resting. Han Ye smiled slightly: "You are all too tired, when we arrived, all of you fainted one after another." You were the first of all to wake up. Your companions are resting elsewhere and I guarantee they are all in the best possible hands. β
ββ¦β¦ Thank you. Lan Lan's face showed a trace of sadness: "We...... How many people are left?"
Cold Night was silent for a while, and she whispered, "Even you." Altogether...... Four. I'm sorry, but it turned out that there were six of you when you came here, but two of you never woke up after they fell into a coma. The elders of the tribe saw it, and told me that they had run out of oil, exhausted all their energy and vitality, and were overdrawn too much, and they could still struggle to support themselves on the road with one breath, and when they reached a safe place, they were relieved, but they ...... instead."
Lan Lan was stunned for a moment, and she said in a low voice, "Oh...... Again...... Two people died? β
Her face was neither happy nor sad, and then she glanced at the cold night: "How long have I slept?"
"Six days. Cold Night smiled bitterly: "I've never seen anyone who slept longer than you." β
"Six days?" Lan Lan frowned: "I slept...... So long. β
"Yes. Han Ye handed the kettle in his hand to Lan Lan: "I have always taken care of you, when you are asleep, I will feed you some water to drink every day, and some nectar." By the way, you must have had a lot of nightmares, because you seem to be in pain in your sleep, and you talk a lot in your dreams. β
"Dream talk?" Lan Lan was stunned: "I...... What did you say?"
"You have called out the names of many people, you have called out to the leader who died in your ranks, I heard you crying, 'Lord Tacitus,' I heard you crying, I wiped away your tears. Well...... You've also called out to your teacher, and ......"
Speaking of this, Han Ye's eyes were a little strange: "The name you shouted the most is ......"
Lan Lan's body shook: "I...... What's the most shouting? isn't it...... Messiah?"
"It's not. Han Ye smiled: "It's a guy named 'Darling Chen'." In the dream, you keep calling his name, saying sorry to him, saying that you were wrong. β
Han Ye squinted at Lan Lan: "This 'Darling Chen', is this your beloved man, has he broken your heart?"
Darling: Yes, I'm sorry?
Lan Lan's body trembled even more!
As if in an instant, in my mind, there were still many residual fragments of dreams, flashing quickly...... One painting after another......
In my dream, I really seemed to see him.
It was as if he had remembered the words he had rebuked him! those undisguised denunciations......
At that time, I was deeply dismissive, and I always felt that I was dedicating myself to my faith......
But now?
Seem...... Again, what the guy said finally came true.
He's right, and I'm ...... That's wrong.
Faith?
Lan Lan sneered in his heart, the moment Tacitus died in front of his eyes, the faith in his heart had already died with it.
There was a bit of calm in his eyes, and Lan Lan raised her head to look at Han Ye: "You guessed wrong, that Darling Chen...... He didn't break my heart, but I should have broken his heart. β
