Warlord of Chaos Chapter 349: New task
Under the introduction of Yalena, Han Jin understood the origin of the Holy Crystal. On the first day of the establishment of the Guangming Church, the Holy Crystal existed and has been placed on the top of the main hall. The mountain where the temple is located is known as the mountain where the sun never sets. It is said that there will always be a world of light. Every night, the holy crystal will emit dazzling light. Even severe weather such as violent storms cannot block the glory of the holy crystal. .
But later, the holy crystal suddenly stopped shining, unless a high-ranking priest releases the magic to activate the holy crystal. At that time, the high level of the Holy See was divided into two groups. One group believed that the sins committed by people angered the God of Light and must be strengthened The authority of the Holy See, so that more people can bathe in the mercy of God and stay away from the darkness, while the other faction thinks that it is the reason of the Holy Crystal itself, trying to study the mystery of the Holy Crystal.
Among the radicals, except for a few careerists, most of them are fanatical believers. They only obey the will of God. They even lack proper reason. If God says that human beings should walk backwards, they are definitely the first The key point of criticizing the responders is that they cannot communicate with the so-called gods, and the will of the gods is often conveyed by humans.
The composition of the conservatives is much more complicated. In the words of another world, there are theorists, scientists, and workers among them. They always want to ask why when they encounter things, but it is very difficult to study Saint Crystal Yes, it must be agreed by all high-level officials, because the status of Saint Crystal is even higher than that of the pope. It is unimaginable that the noble pope would lie there naked and let them fiddle with and study, let alone put it into action. The very idea is blasphemy.
The advantage of the radicals lies in unity. They inspire themselves and their partners, and move themselves and their partners. Everyone works together to fight against the conservatives. Everything is for the will of God, but their shortcomings are also It has since been reflected that there are not many smart people in it, and a priest who is good at thinking has other concerns besides God's will, such as justice and axiom. It is very clear to give an example. When a certain superior conveys the will of God, saying that whoever is a villain, the radicals will go up and chop people with long swords, but the priests who are good at thinking have to ask themselves, is that person really a villain? Is it a heinous crime? Should he be given a chance to redeem himself? Must be killed?
In fact, any group, even culture and race, has its own attributes. It is precisely because he is good at thinking that he cannot follow blindly, or he may resent radicals and move closer to conservatives. If within the sphere of influence, he does not dare to speak out, nor can he speak up, then he will choose to be wise and protect himself, but this is by no means yielding, let alone agreeing.
Conservatives also have their own disadvantages. They are too good at thinking, and they have too many worries. Attainable, but still unable to overwhelm the opponent.
From Yalina's narration, Han Jin knew for the first time that the Holy See had played a role in fueling the current chaos in the mainland.
After the division of the mainland, the lords of various places have maintained a balance for a considerable period of time, and Tuya, the leader of the radical faction of the Holy See, was elected Pope. He used his position for several years to consolidate his position, and then raised his butcher knife , issued a decree of divine grace.
The so-called Divine Grace Order means that as long as you become a believer, you can no longer pay taxes. Of course, you can donate money to churches everywhere, and the amount will be halved. Originally, you need to pay ten silver coins, but now you only need to give it to the church Five silver coins will do. God's favor does not limit races, that is to say, even orcs can become believers and enjoy equal treatment. Tuya's measures have been wildly supported by commoners and slaves. Needless to say, commoners, but if slaves become believers, they can be released from slavery, and they can live in a fair and free manner.
Tuya's Divine Grace Order was too whimsical and too crazy. A member of the interest class, the Holy See has monopolized all taxes at once, so what will they eat and drink in the future? Do you want to be a robber who robs houses?
The lords and nobles from all over the world showed unimaginable unity. Even when the empire was unified, it could not be compared with this moment. Some even exhausted their wealth to recruit troops, and then burned churches, massacred priests, The believers were driven away, and then all the coalition forces from all over the country gathered in the southwest region, pointing their spearhead at the mountain where the sun never sets.
Tuya didn't take the coalition forces seriously, but was ecstatic because he could eliminate all the opposing forces in one battle and become the master of the entire continent. And the coalition army does not have a commander-in-chief, because the lords are unwilling to obey anyone. This is incredible for a war. It stands to reason that the coalition army should not be the opponent of the elite Knights of Light and the Cardinals. You know, at that time the strength of the Holy See was countless times stronger than it is now.
But Tuya was wrong. What he was facing was the anger of the entire continent. It is said that the figures of dragon knights and countless magicians on the battlefield had already covered the sky. It was also said that most magicians did not release their magic because they were afraid. The elemental turbulence at that time was so violent that they even sensed that the world was collapsing.
After the defeat of the Holy See's army, Tuya committed suicide. Since the establishment of the church, he was the first pope who committed suicide, and also the only pope who committed suicide. Capital, but the responsibility he bears is too heavy. Whether he is ambitious or not, his belief in the God of Light is unquestionable, so he hopes to exchange his death for forgiveness and preserve a glimmer of life for the Holy See.
At that time, as long as the coalition forces marched more than two hundred miles, they could completely wipe out the Holy See. However, Tuya's death made many lords suddenly realize, what is the Pope? He is a sacrosanct leader who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the former emperor! He actually committed suicide under their power... What is that power? !
Some lords withdrew secretly with their own troops. The troops of the whole continent are here. Of course, it would be of great benefit to go home first. Lords adjacent to themselves. Because armies from all over the mainland are gathered in the southwest region, most cities are no longer capable of defense. Some lords suddenly became malicious during the process of withdrawing troops, and they burned, killed and looted all the way back, and some lords returned. When he got home, he found that his homeland had been destroyed, and he was so angry that he led people to attack every army that passed by. Some found two lords fighting in a melee during the withdrawal process, so they secretly waited aside, and when the opponent was defeated, he went out to take advantage of it. Some used safety as an excuse to find allies, convinced that they were safe, Turned to poison the allies. Anyway, during those days, all kinds of strange things happened, and since then, the mainland has become completely chaotic.
The war between the coalition forces and the Holy See was named the Battle of the Forbidden Curse, because in that short period of time, too many forbidden curses were released. The internecine killing of the coalition forces was named the Hundred Days of Bloodshed. At that time, it was more chaotic than it is now, and the rules between societies were completely broken. Every other army was its own enemy, and no one could trust anyone. , the two armies that meet unexpectedly are bound to fight to the death. Unlike martial arts, the magic that dominates the main offensive position is unpredictable. In the battle between magicians of the same level, it is absolutely best to strike first and suffer later. You don't want to fight, wait until the magician on the opposite side releases magic, and then change your mind, it will be too late. Even the lord with the strongest psychological quality lost his position at that time, and he didn't even dare to send people to reconnaissance. Let the magician go, it is easy to be sniped, and the precious magic power is wasted, so send the knight. When the knight finds out the situation, the opponent It can also be found that if the other party is also a lord who is dedicated to protecting himself, it is okay to say that if he is a lord who has already attacked several companions, plundered a lot of wealth, and is not tired of doing it, wouldn't he expose himself and fall into the tiger's mouth?
In the current Northeast region, counting the dead Zaguned, Dismark and others, there are only a dozen lords, but this is the natural result of the survival of the fittest. At that time, the coalition forces of the entire continent were armed by hundreds of local Formed together, so many armies that are hostile to each other are like scattered flowers, retreating in the same direction. It is conceivable that almost half of the armies never returned to their hometown.
Han Jin sighed in his heart, losing order, human nature will become extremely terrifying! However, Yalena then talked about the Orc Federation in a gloating tone.
The decline of the orcs was also due to the Hundred Days of Bloody War. The lords in various places are much more powerful, but before the orcs had any ghosts, Tuya issued the order of divine favor, which treats all races equally, and all believers can enjoy equal treatment. Therefore, the orc federation also sent out own army.
Tuya committed suicide, and the lords were alienated. The orcs decided to continue to attack the mountain where the sun never sets, setting an example for the capricious human beings. Unfortunately, the example was done, but no other lords responded. The so-called centipede is dead but not stiff. When the Holy See was the most powerful, there were more than 20 archbishops below the Pope who mastered high-level light magic, and there were hundreds of cardinals. Although the stormtrooper formed by the paladins was defeated by the coalition forces and suffered heavy losses, and Pope Tuya committed suicide, the morale was low and the people panicked, but they still retained a strong combat effectiveness.
This war was known as the War on which the Sun Never Sets. As a result, the army of the Orc Federation was wiped out, and the Holy See was hit hard again, and it was in a worse situation, so that after hundreds of years, until today, It also failed to recover.
The birth of a strong man needs soil, and the inheritance also needs an atmosphere. At that time, the Holy See had a whole set of mechanisms for digging talents. The bishop, and then the bishop went to select the priests, all the dioceses were destroyed, and the priests were all killed, and in two consecutive **** battles, the casualty rate of the archbishop was less than half, while the casualty rate of the cardinal was more than 9% Ten, the stronger the strength, the better able to cope with harsh environments and various crises, but the huge talent pool is wiped out, and this loss cannot be made up at all.
However, the loss of the orc tribe was even more serious. At that time, the king of the orc tribe, Kazalu, thought that the opportunity for the orc tribe had finally come, but he was worried about the overall strength of human beings. The soldier's clever plan is to use all his strength in the war to eliminate the Holy See, so that humans will watch carefully, and when he conquers those lords in the future, naturally there will be no need to fight. The best of the best came out, but none of the orcs could return to their hometown. What's more tragic, Kazalu even took his son and wives with him. He didn't even have a legal heir. As a result, the Orc Federation, like the empire, quickly disintegrated up.
Han Jin listened very carefully, especially the information about the Holy See, because it determines what kind of attitude he will maintain towards Jedis, and how he will deal with those paladins, those light knights and priests Ladies and gentlemen, Jadis would not take the initiative to tell him these things.
At least, he has already made a vague decision in his heart. The radicals around Jadis must be completely eradicated. They are the source of disaster! Comparing his heart to his heart, he often encounters things he can't help himself now, and it's the same with Jadis. Originally, Jadis didn't want to do that, but there are too many radicals around him, so he tried every means to put pressure on Jadis. It is possible to compromise, but how to get rid of it... needs to be arranged slowly, this matter cannot be rushed!
Yarina's mouth was dry, but seeing Han Jin listening seriously, she was smiling and sweet in her heart, and she didn't stop until she approached the gate of Blissful Night.
"Sheng Jing was made from the tears of the God of Light?" Han Jin couldn't help laughing and said, "What a big tear."
"It's a legend, it can't be true." Yalena also laughed.
"You said..." Han Jin suddenly said: "I told Jedis that I need that holy crystal very much, will he agree?"
"No wonder! He will fight you desperately!" Yalena said firmly.
"Forget it, take your time." Han Jin smiled and shook his head.
Several maids inside the door came out with smiling faces. Their eyes were a little surprised. It is normal to bring women to Bliss Night, because Bliss Night is a comprehensive "entertainment city". The items in the building are all different, but wearing a hard suit is a bit weird.
"Is Celeste there?" Han Jin asked a maid.
"You..." The maid obviously froze for a moment: "Do you know Lord Celeste?"
"Yes." Han Jin nodded. *
"Please come with me." The maid smiled and led the way, leading Han Jin and Yalena to a small hall, leaning forward and saying, "Wait a minute, I will inform Xi Lord Leicester."
Han Jin responded and looked around. Although every plant, tree, table and chair here belonged to him, even the female slaves and maids belonged to him, but he had never been here, and the hall was full of people. A resplendent taste, with glittering decorations everywhere. Of course, this is not his style, but Dismark's. Fortunately, they quickly solved the enemy in the city-capture battle they launched, and really made a fuss. Holy Crown City The loss will never be small.
Yarina was also looking around curiously, then turned her attention to the cup on the table, picked it up to look at it, and then put it back disapprovingly. Although she was dressed very plainly today, she Born from a wealthy family, the capital of the elements is much larger than the Holy Crown City, and a duke's mansion is worth half of the Holy Crown City. What good things haven't been seen?
Han Jin found that the room was a bit weird, there were six doors around him, he was about to go over to see what happened, when he suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside, and then the six doors were pushed open almost at the same time, rushing In came a group of half-armed mercenaries.
Han Jin couldn't help but frown, and then a familiar voice sounded: "My lord?"
As soon as the voice fell, Qi Fanke's figure appeared in the air, he turned around and shouted: "Get out, get out, get out, it's none of your business!"
The aggressive group of mercenaries lost all morale in an instant, and retreated obediently.
"What are you doing?" Han Jin asked.
"I thought..." Qi Fanke was a little embarrassed: "I heard them say that someone called Celeste directly by name, I thought someone was looking for trouble."
"You!" Han Jin was quite helpless. When Dismark was here ~IndoMTL.com~ I never heard of anyone coming here to make trouble. Could it be that Hanjin's deterrence is not as good as Dismark: "I Seems like you're feeling uncomfortable here and looking for trouble? What do you call him if I don't call him by his first name?"
"Hehe... You don't know, that kid Celeste is a big man now, no matter who comes to him, he has to address him as 'Master'." Qi Fanke became more and more embarrassed: "I It's actually pretty good here..."
Han Jin observed Qi Fanke, and saw that Qi Fanke's expression was very natural, which was completely different from the restless nervousness at that time. He should have recovered. He turned his gaze to the wall, but the focus was not there, as if Looking into the distance through the wall: "Qifanke, do you want to do something?"
"Me?" Qi Fanke was surprised and delighted: "My lord, what can I do?" Staying here, although there is delicious food and drink every day, and there are beauties everywhere in the building, thousands of beauties , but he was very bored. For Qifanke a long time ago, it was heaven to be able to get to this point, but now he is not reconciled. To put it nicely, he is Celeste’s deputy. It’s not nice to say , he just watched the scene, and he was watching a scene where no one would dare to make trouble. Life is too boring! People like Moxinke, who follow Han Jin to the end, will become famous lords. Could it be that he has been like this all his life? !
"Didn't you say there is a beautiful garden in the back, let's talk there." Han Jin said softly. In fact, his preferred candidate was Gibran, but Gibran and Julia were 'imprisoned' together, so he could only retreat Next best.
"My lord, please follow me." Kifank trembled as he spoke, and he rushed over and opened the door. (To be continued, if you want to know what happens next, please log in. readnovel., more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
