Although the data terminal's mouth is not sustainable enough, it has to be admitted that it can always sum things up to ideas every time. The terrifying conspiracy of the Dream Plane tens of thousands of years ago and the subsequent catastrophe of annihilation can actually be summed up in one sentence: the crime of killing the mother.
The giant should not have lied. Of course, even if he did not lie, what he knew might not be the whole truth, but this does not affect the general context of the whole incident is clear and reliable. At least for now, no one can be more authoritative than the original guardian . Looking at the silent crowd, Hao Ren felt a strange and dull and uneasy atmosphere in the air. Although the whole meeting hall was very quiet, there were invisible turbulent factors brewing in the silence.
Before the turmoil broke out, he stood up: "I know most of you can't believe this, so you can ask questions about the details. But other than that, if you want to verify the authenticity of these materials with me, it's fine." Well, anyway, I’m just telling you the story, whether you believe it or not is up to you.”
The Archbishop of Auburn raised his eyelids, the runes on his face shimmered slightly, and his voice was calm: "Do you know what these truths mean?"
"God is dead. For a sect, this is the most fatal impact." Hao Ren sighed. "I can also guess the other impacts. For example, only those who return to the sect are orthodox believers. Distorted and untrue... Tsk, if you really want to talk about it, you have to admit the accusations of those cultists at this time."
The Regression Sect is closer to the truth than the Shining Sect's beliefs-this is definitely a great irony. The Archbishop of Auburn still had a stern face, and it was difficult to see his inner thoughts from his expression as usual. He just said slowly: "If the guardian comes to carry out divine punishment again, what should we do?"
Lily scratched her face: "Oh yes, this is also a problem... If it is really according to the doctrine, you should bow your heads and admit it."
If you really want to stick to the doctrine, the brain monster and the eldest son are the guardians of the goddess, and they are the roles of "angels" mentioned in the holy scriptures. What they do is the will of the gods, and from the historical truth. Their liquidation activities against mortal species are also completely legitimate and reasonable punishments, so now these church speakers are caught in huge contradictions. Lily drew a relationship formula for them in her mind for a long time. I couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "Such a serious matter, why is it like an eighty-episode family drama..."
"Isn't this a family dispute from the beginning?" Hao Ren scratched his hair and looked at the archbishop. "I, an outsider, shouldn't criticize your teachings, but I'll talk about my opinion: Although I met the goddess back then, It is your ancestors who are not saved, but the disaster is not as serious as your descendants. Didn’t the previous sane guardian give up and liquidate you in the end? I think this can be regarded as a kind of forgiveness. You should live as you want. As for those crazy brain monsters or eldest sons who will come to this place in the future... don't treat them as guardians, after all, they are already crazy."
"Bishop Auburn, can these things really be taken seriously?" At this moment, an archbishop sitting in a corner stood up, obviously he still couldn't believe the amazing news brought by the foreigners. His reaction was naturally reasonable. In fact, not only him, but everyone at the scene would not believe Hao Ren's statement so easily. Several other bishops also stood up and raised their own doubts or opinions. But from their questions, Hao Ren and his party could tell that the factor of shaking had already been planted in their brains.
Hao Ren answered a few questions. At last the Archbishop of Auburn interrupted the meaningless debate: "Enough, this kind of debate is a waste of time. Gentiles, I believe you have no need to deceive us. But I have a question: If it is true that God has death, then whose voice do we believers hear in meditation?"
Hao Ren's heart skipped a beat: Sure enough, this question was mentioned!
After talking with the giant, he couldn't help but think of this: the reason why the Hui Yao Sect can spread all over the planet and become the pillar of faith for the entire civilization. The most important reason is not the efforts of the missionaries, but that they have real magical powers. Devout believers can communicate with a high-level consciousness that is suspected to be a goddess in a state of meditation. They can obtain some unexplainable supernatural abilities out of thin air through prayer and belief. High-level believers even acquire knowledge that does not belong to this planet and this era during meditation. The application of that knowledge in reality has also made the Huiyao Sect not only a religious organization, but also one of the representatives of the most advanced productive forces in the world: these real things cannot be produced by tricks and public opinion.
If God is dead, where did they get these "gifts"
"The fall of a true god is different from the death of a human being," Hao Ren stroked his chin, trying to explain the death of a god with his own understanding. "The true gods are entangled with the laws of the world. After their death, they are enough to leave a long-term influence on the basic laws of the universe. I call this 'reverberation'. Perhaps it is not the goddess who responds to you, but her after death A sliver of power or thought left behind. After all, since the establishment of the Huiyao Sect, none of you can really clearly hear what the goddess is saying, right?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the bearded man. Others at the scene probably couldn't understand him, but this man had met Raven 12345, so he naturally knew how the true God responded to the prayers of believers... Well, the tune is probably different, But at least clarity is guaranteed.
The bearded man nodded to the Bishop of Auburn. The latter expressed his opinion like this when he saw a pious ascetic monk, and he also pondered: "Maybe so."
"Can unbelievers really understand what it means to believe in a goddess?" A bishop looked at Hao Ren and the others suspiciously. This question did not necessarily mean much malice, but an insider saw a group of laymen coming to give advice. Definitely have to ask.
Hao Ren wanted to use his status as pope to discuss who is the real industry insider on the spot, but after scrolling the face of Raven 12345 twice in his mind, he felt really guilty, so he didn't feel ashamed to say anything...
He really couldn't say to people with a shy face, "Actually, I also believe in a great god"-a dog wouldn't believe it.
But what people didn't expect was that the Archbishop of Auburn actually helped to say something at this time: "I think the news brought by the foreigners is credible."
Several other bishops questioned it immediately, but Archbishop Auburn waved his hand imposingly: "According to the scriptures, I can act as the pope if the pope is martyred, so the debate on this matter will end here. I will explain it to you later. Before that, some foreigners, I wonder if I can come to a place with me."
Hao Ren didn't know what the barrage-faced archbishop could do to him, but he knew that the other party's temperament would not make trouble for others, so he got up and followed him: "Okay. Let's all follow?"
Archbishop Auburn looked at Hao Ren and his friends, nodded slightly: "Come on."
Hao Ren and the others followed the archbishop out of the conference hall in a daze, leaving a group of generals, ministers, and bishops looking at each other. After a moment of silence at the scene, Prince Huffman greeted Ofra: "Shall we continue the discussion?"
Ophra sat on the chair with a tired face and waved her hands: "Stop all the previous topics, now let's study the guidance of public opinion and so on, let's discuss a rough unified caliber... I suddenly regretted that I smashed the table with a sword just now gone."
Huffman didn't react immediately: "Huh?"
"I want to find a place to have a party," Ofra rubbed her forehead, "Or you can discuss it first, and I can find a place to pretend to be dead."
Huffman: "...Your Excellency Marshal, please be serious!"
At this time, Hao Ren and the others had already left the meeting hall behind the Archbishop of Auburn, and followed a secret passage into the deep underground of the floating fortress.
Finally, they came to a plain dark room.
"This is..." Nangong Wuyue turned her head to look around, and found some religious emblems of the Hui Yao Sect on the wall, "Prayer room?"
"The Pope was meditating here before he was martyred," Archbishop Auburn nodded slightly, and pointed to the icon painting in the center of the dark room. "He meditated on the icon painting for several hours."
Hao Ren immediately realized: "What did he leave behind?!"
(I'm shivering at the end of the month, I'd better ask for a monthly pass, anyway, I'm idle = .=) (to be continued~^~)
