This world now has a new name, and Sandora feels that since it is the capital of the fifteen-day zone of the old empire (in fact, it is a fragment of the capital), and it is also the hometown of Pandora and the others, this universe cannot be named with a simple number , it should have its own name like Avalon and Shadow Space. After a brief discussion, we decided to name this small universe with a diameter of one light-year "Xinxiang".
This name is not very uncommon. In the imperial database, there are at least hundreds of place names called Xinxiang in the macro world, but for this lost and regained territory, the word "Xinxiang" has an extraordinary meaning—this is the only audible name we found after weeding out over a hundred odd strings...
Well, we shouldn't let Qianqian participate in the naming activity.
Xinxiang will become a "district" of the imperial capital just like Avalon, and the mortal world here will serve as an observation station and testing ground for the phenomenon of imperial deification. It will be treated as a test product, but in fact the situation is not so serious, everything is an inevitable process: the next divine individual will inevitably appear among the apostles of Xiling, then we must know what this "new god" has Power, whether you like it or not, this "new god" will inevitably generate information disturbance power, that is, the power of faith and grace. As long as the "new god" comes into contact with the mortal world, religion will inevitably arise. Why don't you send an observer over to see the situation? Originally before deciding to mount this world into the shadow space. We intend that if a "new god" appears, let the latter randomly select audiences in the macro world to establish a belief system. Now we are just putting this world that will soon be incorporated into the capital of the empire as the first priority of religious planning. , rather than a testing ground, it is actually just a ready-made observation station.
Even Sagina and Sona didn't show any awkwardness after hearing my plans - of course there is another important reason because they probably don't understand what I'm talking about...
Many things have happened to many people in the mother continent these days, and perhaps even more stressful days for the rulers of various regions of the world. All because of the news of the "Return of the Kingdom of God" that suddenly spread throughout the world.
A new sect claiming to believe in the Raven God suddenly appeared in the famous barren land in the southern region. This matter had been spread around a few days ago. On the mother continent, the transmission of information is not as slow as we imagined. This world has a communication network based on magic technology and relatively developed media channels. Even ordinary people can know what happened in and outside the kingdom recently through a kind of non-governmental media similar to newspapers and the magic crystal announcement device in the center of the city. People are no strangers to the Crow God Sect, a new religion that suddenly flourished in the barren land. In the barren south, it is difficult for the people to obtain any material comfort, so this is also a place where various new small religions emerge in endlessly, but the speed of development and the strength displayed by the Crow God Sect are a bit surprising, and now, This sect made an even more astonishing move: they sent messengers to the whole world, and these missionaries wearing black feather-decorated robes appeared instantly in every populated place in the world as if they had descended from the sky. Publicly publicize the news of the "Return of the Kingdom of God". These missionaries come and go without a trace, as if they have mastered the space transmission technology that powerful professional mages can't easily use. It is often seen that a missionary is preaching on the border of the kingdom in the morning, but appears in the capital of the kingdom in the afternoon. Stand in front of the king's palace and ask for an audience.
And another group of "missionaries" also appeared around the world at the same time. Compared with the Crow God Sect, which has been around for a while and is obviously larger, the movement of this second group of missionaries seems to be not so big, but their appearance is very important. The impact of ordinary people in this world is even more obvious. They are the "Dragon God Sect" that was suddenly organized recently, and few people know about it.
Unlike the Crow God Sect, which has a complex composition, all believers of the Dragon God Sect have only one race, that is, the half-dragon people—some remote places even call them lizard people—these were originally at the bottom of the various intelligent races on the mainland, and they were even called The lycanthropes who were confused with those demi-human races also appeared in various parts of the world together with the missionaries of the Crow God, preaching the prophecy about the return of the kingdom of God. The "Dragon Descent" incident in Sentu has spread to most of the world at this time, but many people are skeptical that the half-dragon people really have the blood of the dragon, and the half-dragon people who claim to be the people of the dragon god appear , has attracted unprecedented attention—especially the news from all over the world that some half-dragon people suddenly roared when facing doubtful crowds, and even turned into giant dragons, the turmoil caused even exceeded " The Second Coming of God" message itself.
The sudden and large movement of the two emerging sects certainly caused a lot of commotion—the civilians were the first to bear the brunt.
No matter which world you are in, the civilian class is always easy to be influenced. Their number and complexity of composition determine that this group of people can be quickly pushed by new information that suddenly emerges. As long as a group of people believe it, there will be Countless groups of people follow blindly.
The missionaries of the Crow God Sect are actually not clever "instigators". They may have been farmers with their faces facing the loess and their backs to the sky, or coolies digging stones in mines. Not as good as the monks of other sects who specialize in this way, but they have genuine divine power, and in this world where there are many religions and various god-speaking activities emerge in an endless stream, even juggling in the street can fool a large group of people , not to mention these priests who fly into the sky and seem to be omnipotent, they will suddenly appear in the sky above the city, wrapped in thunder and storms from magical prayers, and appear in front of the civilians as if the messengers of the gods really descended, loudly Promote the news that "the kingdom of God is coming, the gods will close a part of the "lost world", and a new order will be established". If this does not produce enough publicity, then there is no more effective publicity. The actions of the Dragon God missionaries are even simpler. When a giant dragon suddenly landed on the city wall and ordered everyone to stop exploring the lost world immediately, no one would dare to ignore such a warning, right
Of course, there will be people who ignore such warnings, and some even think that these missionaries are playing tricks to expand the influence of their own sect - no matter where you go, there will be such bold and stubborn people. But in fact, up to now, the thoughts of these people are meaningless: Alleria has been closing the transmission channels of each lost world one by one, and 80% of the channels from the mother continent to the lost world have now become One-way teleportation only allows people to evacuate from the opposite side of the passage, and no newcomers are allowed to enter the lost world. In the final analysis, the task of those missionaries is not to use their own power to stop exploration activities around the world, but to issue a warning to the whole world. Use vaccinations to avoid future panic events.
Therefore, under the circumstances of these "messengers of God" and the gradual closure of the lost world, the exploration activities of the folks in the mother continent to the lost world almost stopped almost immediately. And there are constantly explorer teams stranded in the lost world returning to the mother continent (the communication between the lost world and the mother continent is still unimpeded. And in some lost worlds that cannot be notified, the Dragon God Sect and the Crow God Sect also specially send missionaries to evacuate people), just as I said before, explorers are a group of superstitious people, they value all kinds of omens before departure, and now the whole world is so dynamic, it is better to believe it An unbelievable mentality. Most of these explorers are unwilling to stay outside anymore. And even if there are those who are really reluctant to leave... Well, they can't beat those missionaries who "God descended on me" at every turn, can't they
It is said that the first day is light. The missionaries of the Crow God Sect who were born with mud legs knocked out and brought back thousands of people, and the Dragon God Sect was slightly better. After all, their pope was born as an explorer, and the explorer brought back forcibly by them was not knocked out, but was tied tightly...
And after these missionaries in the name of God spread the news of God's return all over the world and released miracles everywhere, after setting off quite a wave among the people, the managers and orthodox churches of the various principalities on the mother continent finally reacted and responded. Beginning with a range of responses—everywhere is different.
In most places, the response of the authorities was as we expected. They put the suppression of social unrest as the first priority and began to find ways to find out the source of those missionaries. This source is easy to check, and all missionaries are from the south. The Crow God Sect has never been a hidden sect, and the entire half-dragon race has been migrating to the southern region with great fanfare for about half a month, but when they found the source of the missionaries and took the next step, the local authorities were confused , because they couldn’t think of any motives for these religious people to engage in such a joint activity all over the world: the missionaries preached the second coming of the kingdom of God, but they didn’t mention that it would lead to the end of the world and other gimmicks (this is A common trick used by many illegal sects to develop believers), and there is no idea of using this momentum to expand the power of the church. All the missionaries seem to be really just informing about this matter, and they are sent from one city to another, causing enough They left after paying attention, and even refused to accept the food and donations that some people spontaneously provided. Then there is only one reason to explain: what they said is true.
But even so, many operatives still encountered trouble, because the movement was too loud, and Lilina asked them to "high-profile, even if they are high-profile, God will help you solve problems." These missionaries are lively every time they act Just like the festival, many local authorities were overwhelmed and began to try to arrest, or at least expel these "mysterious people", and then many unexpected situations happened to the former—
Whether it is the believer of the Crow God or the messenger of the Dragon God, they completely ignore the "human justice"!
It is completely ignored, because all operatives have temporary god-given amulets on them, and these amulets allow them to temporarily have the status of "god-side executors", so all judgments and actions made by human justice against them are directly deleted , they are invulnerable and ignore all physical and non-physical obstacles. They walked directly through the phalanx formed by thousands of city guards like phantoms, announcing the timetable for the return of the kingdom of God loudly as they walked; They read the evacuation plan formulated by the gods with their lines; they even directly reflected their own figures into the king's retina. Spread the word about world changing things. Before setting off, Vanilla and Sona gave their envoys the points of action: to show the demeanor of a servant of the gods, as long as they do not violate the laws of the gods, the servants of the gods will ignore the justice of the world, so they really ignore all the mortals that point to them. attack…
Such a thing caused an uproar, and there was an uproar all over the world. The rulers of the mortal world and the "orthodox sects" everywhere finally realized that something was wrong. They felt that they might have encountered a real "god". But soon, the "orthodox sects" themselves joined the propaganda. This was the third day of the large-scale operation of the missionaries from the south, and the old churches all over the world also announced that they had received the revelation, because what they said All kinds of ancient spirits and imaginary gods worshiped suddenly "appeared" intensively one after another, telling believers all over the world in a direct way that has never been done before. The things preached by the Crow God Cultists and Dragon God Cultists are true.
If those messy churches can communicate, they will find a strange phenomenon: no matter which church worships the ancient spirit. Recently, I have a strange catchphrase in my speech. That's "For the Empire"...
These ancient spirits have actually gradually come under our control.
As I said before, there are two most distinctive features in this world. One is naturally the "lost world" that is closely related to people's lives and has become a part of the mother continent's civilization, and the other is the various sects and ancient spirits they believe in on the entire mother continent. In this world, there are about hundreds of religions or sects co-existing in a delicately balanced state, and the core of what these sects worship or preach is basically the ancient spirits. Guling, that is, something with a long history. A powerful, mysterious but real wise being. They may be ancient beasts, or they may be some kind of materialized natural phenomenon (the ancient spirits followed by the Storm Cult in the northern mountains are a thunderstorm that never dissipates). At the beginning, the little crow was also mistaken for the ancient spirit (Vanilla called her the spirit of nature), so we may have a clearer understanding of the "ancient spirit phenomenon" on the mother continent. These ancient spirits have powers that are clearly not at the same level as the mortal creatures of the mother continent, so the mortals of the mother continent regard them as gods.
At the same time, Alleria also said before that among the 301 commanders on the mysterious side of the old empire, except for her, the remaining 300 people have been stored in this world in the form of underlying data, and among them Most of them are hidden in human beliefs and various religious stories on the mother continent. In other words, these imperial commanders have inexplicable connections with the "ancient spirits" in various parts of the mother continent. The ancient spirits are not imperial commanders. , but their production mechanism is actually various phenomena formed by the overflow of data at the bottom of the world, just like the second body extended by the latter. Since the empire commanders sleeping in this world are all mysterious, what they extend out is ancient spirits. If the commanders sleeping here are technology-side commanders, then what extends out should be black technology, and if Lilina is knocked out If it is stuffed into the bottom of the world, it is estimated that the entire mother continent will become... well, it will become a mosaic...
In fact, the ancient spirits themselves have no independent consciousness, and their "consciousness" was born out of those imperial officials who have dissociated themselves. In ages gone by, since their parent bodies were all dormant, all the Elders of the Mother Continent were chaotic—what mortals thought was a sign of the god's moodiness, but in reality it was because they were all fainted. But now, the imperial officials in the data at the bottom of the world are gradually waking up, and the ancient spirits are naturally turning from a state of chaos to sobriety, and are standing on the side of the empire.
The missionaries of the Crow God and the Dragon God are running around the world to gain prestige. This is what Lilina is worried about. As for us, we have already started the mother star activation process when the first batch of missionaries set off. .
The mother star, which has been sleeping for more than 70,000 years, and is still fragmented under the impact of the impact, is very troublesome to completely restart. It is precisely because this work cannot be done in a day or two. We have a lot of free time on hand. It was only then that I decided to let those missionaries run around the world doing propaganda, instead of simply letting Little Crow and Lin do a miracle all over the world. Although the latter seems to be convenient and fast, it is not as well-publicized as the former, and it seems that the momentum is not big enough. Lilina attaches great importance to the tools of public opinion, and she just wants to take this opportunity to expand the influence of the Crow God Sect: do not deliberately recruit Believers, as long as the changes in the lost worlds are transmitted back to the mother continent, her publicity plan will be a great success. As for the Dragon God Sect... Sagina and Sona are obviously not as sophisticated as Lilina, and they only acted after the latter reminded them. These two half-dragon girls still have a lot to do to become qualified spiritual leaders. Long way to go.
The busiest person these days, apart from Lilina is Aurelia, Lilina is busy tossing about her religious career, and Aurelia is the only one of us who knows how to activate the home planet. Until now, the concept has been split The status can only be resolved on the "Xinxiang" side. Outside of "Xinxiang", the conceptual separation is still going on. Therefore, Alaya also feels helpless about things like the Sky Tower and the Forgotten Garden (although those things are hers. Designed and built back then), the burden can only be placed on Aurelia.
But Alleria herself doesn't seem to care about these complicated tasks, or she simply enjoys it. The floating luminous body never shows any expression, but I think I really feel that she is full of energy. A jovial mood, notably evident after the world's "Greenlings" first responded to our commands two days ago.
"Abandoned for 70,000 years, now I can finally serve the empire again and regain work value. Isn't that something to be happy about?" Facing the question I accidentally asked, Alleria said happily, Then he mentioned another thing, "Giant dragon... the city of angels has been released on the other side of the space of the kingdom of gods, do you want to go and see it?"
