On January 1, 1856, the date when the supplementary regulations of the "Religious Decree" were officially implemented, the great purge operation, mainly involving the religious groups and the two major violent organizations, and supplemented by the religious management departments of various countries, officially began. It is expected that more than 100,000 religious institutions will be closed within a week.
2,500 churches expelled or arrested heretics, and about 36,330 false believers, of whom 13,112 were secretly sentenced. This large-scale religious persecution event,
This is the first time in the history of human civilization.
However, no matter the national government, newspapers, news or even public opinion, it seems that they are avoiding talking about this. No official has come forward to say that the citizens under his rule are suffering from some kind of cruel persecution, and no religious experts have come forward to say.
Stand up and point out that this is an irrational tyranny of faith. As for the ordinary people who are most closely connected with the universal faith, their voices are immeasurably weak. Before they can make waves, they are stifled by an even greater silence.
However, this has nothing to do with Linge and his team who are far away in Avion, the "City of Winds" in the Kingdom of Lesenberg. They are still wandering leisurely in the streets and alleys of this small wilderness town, looking up and seeing a dazzling array of windmills, while looking for
There are clues about the so-called angels sent by the Lord.
On January 2, 1856, the fourth day of the 11th Nimschel International Exhibition, Rochelle, a traveler from the Fertile Land Sect, was still wandering in the shadow corners of the city, visiting those mentioned on the list provided by Professor David
The Quanling believers tried to persuade them to gather together for their beliefs and use their common strength to dedicate a great miracle.
This process is not completely smooth, because the blockade between the Night Watch and the Scales of Order is still unbreakable and has a tendency to gradually tighten. Many times, Rochelle can feel their eyes wandering around her. A little carelessness may lead to
Exposing the position will lead to wasting all previous efforts.
Even though Rochelle had mastered the magic of the [Night] path, she still fell into dangerous situations several times. If it weren’t for the huge flow of people during the World Exposition and the frequent movement of people, the night watchmen stationed in the city and those
The order balance sent to hunt him could not completely control the situation, and I am afraid that his situation will be even worse.
Another difficulty comes from the believers on the list. Although their beliefs are devout, not all of them can accept Rochelle's ideas. More people reject him due to various concerns. Some people state it bluntly and call him a saint.
No matter how depressed the Izumi monks are, it is not their turn to point fingers at the Fertile Earth Sect, which has even fallen into the hands of its rivals, the holy land of the sect.
Although the traveler felt sorry for this, he was not forced or angry, and showed respect and understanding for each other's differences.
What is gratifying is that even those who did not agree with his ideas did not jointly report his whereabouts to the religious order afterwards. This was not only concerned about the face of His Majesty Kailiul, the leader, but also because of animism.
The external situation is already bad enough. If we continue to fight among ourselves at this time, it will only accelerate our demise.
On the contrary, they really need a miracle and a victory to motivate themselves, otherwise it will be difficult to muster the courage to continue to fight against the behemoth of the United Order. So maybe, even those who have made it clear that they will not participate in the plan, actually
Are you secretly hoping that Rochelle will succeed?
If all animist believers can unite together, the real "Day of Return of the Holy Spirit" will arrive irreversibly, and what I ignite for it is just the lights in the prelude and the stars in the prologue.
Similar thoughts often excite Rochelle. He often recalls his teacher's face in sleepless nights, and the firm look on his face when he blocked the combined army of the sects and protected the sect believers from fleeing the holy city of Bishan appeared in front of his eyes.
, I realized that the great cause I was undertaking at the moment was actually not just based on personal wishes, but was driven by the will of many people. It was a destiny destined long ago and very far away.
He will still walk silently in this "international city" where the blood and tears of countless magicians are buried, measuring the scale of the earth with his own steps, and at the same time measuring the distance between himself and witnessing a miracle. In those past years
What is accumulated will inevitably become a new key to open the door to tomorrow.
Until then, just be patient and wait.
However, everything about the Fertile Earth Sect Walkers still has nothing to do with Linge and his team in Avion City. They are still wandering around the ruins of the Windmill Village, looking at the huge wooden wings, and trying to find clues when the wind blows. Because
They came so frequently that the ticket seller at the door got used to it, and once even quietly asked them if they were novelists who came to collect their stories. Otherwise, how could they not get tired of visiting the same attraction for several days?
On January 3, 1856, the fourth day after the strangers left the city of Nimschel, they still could not find any trace of Rochelle, nor could Wade Locke, the leader of the Arbitration Team of the Balance of Order, find a breakthrough from Professor David.
Somewhat anxious.
Although the team members were trying to persuade him to relax, after all, he had encountered more unfavorable situations than this when performing other trial tasks in the past. At that time, Wade was the one who comforted them. Why are he so anxious now?
Wade couldn't say it, but he always had an ominous premonition in his heart, as if the worst was about to happen, but he was powerless to stop it. Recalling the information about the rituals of worshiping gods and the conception of gods within the association, he had no idea what might happen.
The consequences were shuddering. In order to attract attention, he decided to unite with the other eleven arbitration teams and the city's night watchmen to once again send a warning to the Grand Inquisitor on the Crimson Night Gate and apply for support.
Although they didn’t quite understand the captain’s anxiety, since it was his decision, the team members naturally supported it unconditionally. So soon, a new situation report was transmitted through the remote communication position deployed at the Night Watch Headquarters in Nimshel City.
He went to the Earth Witch - Crimson Nightgate, which was heading towards the territory of Raisemburg.
However, this still has nothing to do with Linge and his party in the Windy City. Alice, who wandered back and forth in the windmill village ruins for many days, finally developed aesthetic fatigue and began to complain to Linge, admitting that the so-called "treasure" and
The "clues to the young queen's sovereignty" were all just random talk by her. In fact, there was nothing he wanted here at all. How about returning to Nimschel to visit the World Expo? Wouldn't it be much more fun than this small town with only windmills?
Then he was cruelly rejected by Ringer. After all, the young man still remembered the advice Rochelle gave him. No matter what happened, at least until the incident subsided, he had no intention of returning to Nimscher City.
The psychologically twisted golden-haired maid was aggrieved by this, and secretly encouraged her companions to rebel against her employer. However, she was betrayed by a traitor (a certain pink-haired little girl and a certain traveler goblin). Her ambition was shattered before she could realize it, and she was punished by Ringer.
With the torture of not being able to stay up late for a week, his expression of despair and helplessness made people cry, and also made the lamb scream with joy at his misfortune.
On January 4, 1856, after receiving a situation report from the city of Nimschel, the Earth Witch-Crimson Nightgate accelerated across the vast Nibizi sand forest area, officially entered the territory of Raisemburg, and at the same time dispatched an envoy
, issued an ultimatum to the officials of Fort Leisenberg, saying that when necessary, all tough measures may be taken to prevent believers in animism from acting recklessly and causing disasters. I hope that your country will not use any method in any way while the Crimson Nightgate is performing its trial mission.
If you stop it, this move will be regarded as provocation and hostility to the alliance of the religious orders.
After hearing these words, the constitutional government of Lesenberg convened an emergency cabinet meeting and discussed it secretly for nearly eight hours. Finally, the prime minister came out and responded to the envoy with a lot of words. In summary, the meaning was: "Well, okay, we need to send someone."
Is there military support?”
The Grand Inquisitor Feier of the Feiye Mente sneered after hearing this sentence, as if he had heard a big joke: "Didn't Laisenberg not sign the "Convention on the Initiative for Civilization and Truth"? He actually wanted to rely on a mortal army.
Who does he think he is to compete with the God of Conception? It's incredibly stupid. All in all, it's best to let him play without disturbing us."
"Also, notify the command center that from now on, the Feiye Mente will speed up."
"I will arrive in Nimschel City within three days!"
…
Naturally, Linge and his party still didn't know what happened on the Earth Witch-Crimson Nightgate. At this time, the young man was enduring Alice's endless complaints.
The content of the complaint is actually very simple. It's just that I'm tired of visiting the same place every day and doing the same things. Can I find something else to do? And the so-called windmill village ruins don't really look like clues can be found.
It looks like an ordinary scenic spot. If the Queen's Queen was so easy to find, wouldn't Saint Xalia have to work so hard in the past?
Despite his earnest persuasion, Ringer remained unmoved. Alice was so angry that she simply began to imitate those "conscientious historians" in newspapers and published some nonsense and outrageous remarks, such as——
The latest information! Shocking news! After an on-site investigation by experts, it was discovered that the Kreisov Brass Scroll is actually a bad scam, a huge joke jointly played by the Kreisov royal family and the Celestial Order for future generations! In fact,
There is no such thing as a so-called angel from the Lord, nor a so-called covenant or treasure! According to surveys, 95% of the people have been deceived by this... Here, experts appeal to all the citizens of Great Brita, please stay sensible,
Stop adding to 95% of the data! If you have any need in this regard, go and visit the 11th World Exposition being held in Nimschel!
Classic nonsense and academic fraud, this golden-haired maid is annoying, and I don't want to talk to her anymore.
At this time, a certain shepherd girl made a suggestion to the expressionless young man.
"Would you like to try using your grace scroll magic, Ringer?"
