Chapter 316: Pollution

One more deity who needs help to resurrect it, and another huge expense...... However, once the god of dusk returns, the number of protonuclear gods will increase, and the gathered gods will strengthen the power of the church, and even when I am not in the other world, there will be gods who can stand up and preside over the overall situation...... Jiang Hao thought in his heart, predicted the location of Ieta Cavendil, and then began to roam in the astral boundary.

During the journey, all kinds of wonderful scenes that could not happen in the material world came into his eyes, which opened his eyes, and the most he encountered was the island of gods after death.

Some of these islands are the size of a square, while others are surprisingly large and look like a continent floating in the sky.

And every time he encountered an island of gods, Jiang Hao would set foot to visit those gods who were sleeping in the astral boundary.

Although most of these islands have existed for too long, the gods inside have exhausted their strength and fallen into a deep sleep, even if Jiang Hao has channeled their divine power into them, there is no sign of waking up.

But the few remaining islands also taught him a lot about the secrets of the gods.

The god of fairness is the vest of the master of order...... There is no real fall of the god of prophecy...... The god of purgatory is the incarnation of Asmodeus, the lord of the nine layers of hell, and Asmodeus is a god in the truest sense of the word...... The secrets between the gods came out of the mouths of these gods who were active in ancient times, and opened up a corner of the treacherous world of gods.

As the price of obtaining these secrets, Jiang Hao's body was only a head, but fortunately, this clone was made of pure divine power, and even if there was only one head left, it would not affect his actions.

In the silver ocean of the astral plane, a head slowly approached an island of gods that had barely been carried up.

As he approached, a familiar voice came from the island of the gods,

"Your Highness. ”

Without waiting for Jiang Hao to speak, the divine spirit who was only about to be promoted sank in his voice and asked

"Are you here to retrieve the god-killing spear Longinus?"

"I'm sorry, I woke up and lost the whereabouts of this weapon. ”

"I know. Jiang Hao said lightly.

He is no longer a newly promoted god, and after exchanging secrets with many ancient gods with his divine power, he understands that when the god falls, except for himself, after he will fall into the astral plane due to the special rules of the multiverse, all other items will be lost in the astral plane.

"Do you want to be resurrected?"

"I think. ”

Ieta Cavendil's voice sank, "Ever since I fell into the astral plane, my consciousness has been filled with the murmurs of countless believers every day, and in these whispers I have begun to become divided, distorted, and unaware of myself, and I have to fight against these pollution from faith in my sleep, to prevent more selves from appearing in my brain. ”

"But what makes me feel the most daunting is the unchanging scenery of the astral plane, the silver ocean before sleeping, the silver ocean after sleeping, the silver ocean today, the silver ocean tomorrow, and even the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow...... Every day is a sea of silver. ”

"No one spoke to me, and I had to bear it all quietly by myself, full of loneliness. ”

"So Your Highness, I want to leave, I want to return to the colorful Lord Plane. ”

After finishing speaking, he smiled self-deprecatingly, "But Your Highness, I failed, I betrayed your trust, and I have nothing to exchange with you." ”

Equivalent exchange is the rule of the party.

And he has lost everything.

"But you still have a future. Jiang Hao looked at Yeta Cavendir and said, "I will provide divine power and magic for your clergy in your name in the main plane, gather faith for you, accumulate strength, and when you return, you will connect your divine kingdom with my divine kingdom to prevent possible enemies." ”

"Thank you. ”

Ieta Cavendir said silently in her heart.

"And. Jiang Hao reminded, "Be careful of the God of Prophecy, He has not really fallen. ”

......

"The tax revenue of our Tadelgda City has always been the bulk of the kingdom of Strade, and it is an important part of the kingdom's finances, without exception. ”

"Outsiders call us the city of Tadelgada, the most brilliant jewel in the king's crown. ”

"But since last year, the first place in Tadelgada has been snatched away by the barbarians of Burgunchester. ”

"The adults of the city are very angry, so they have ordered our tax collector to inform you that from this day, this very moment, you need to pay a first tax to give us the first place in Tadelgada. ”

"The first tax is calculated according to the capitation, and each person will pay ten silver coins every month, and the number of people who are not believers in the god of cool officials will be doubled......"

"Don't try to run away from taxes, don't think about running away, you should know that you can't run away. ”

In a village outside Tadelgada, tax collectors advertise the new tax policies of the city's magnates to a crowd of villagers.

In order to make his words more convincing, the tax collector directly moved out the priest of the god of cool officials, "The big people in the city have gone to the temple of the god of cool officials to ask the priest to intervene, remember the souls of each of you, and if anyone tries to escape, the punishment of the gods will come and send your souls to hell." ”

"But Lord Tax Collector, ten silver coins are not too much. ”

The village chief said with a bitter face.

Ten silver coins a month, they work hard to farm, and they earn one or two hundred silver coins all year round, plus the previous taxes, they can't survive.

"Ten silver coins is a lot, maybe a lot, but since the barbarians of Burgunchester can pay that much, I'm sure you can too. ”

How can this be compared.

The village chief almost cried, the reason why Burgunchester was able to pay so much was because after they had a steam train last year, a large number of merchants had gathered and the economy had prospered, while Tadelgada City did not have a steam train.

The tax collector tightened his collar and pulled his hat from the front of the car, "Okay guys, don't say anything superfluous, and instead of wasting your energy arguing with me, think about how you are going to raise this tax." ”

"If you can pay more taxes this time than the barbarians in Burgunchester, maybe the big men in the city will be exempted from your taxes next year as soon as they are happy!"

"Alas, Lord Tax Collector, I'll send you away. ”

"Thank you very much. ”

The village chief, dressed in coarse cloth, sent the tax collector away, then returned to the village with a sad face, and said to the villagers who had been waiting

"You all heard what the tax collector in the city just said. ”

"What do you think we should do?"
