Two hundred and forty-three, Devil Altar (please vote for me)
Well, actually this kind of thing sounds ridiculous, but it does happen at the annual love ceremony. [ãßkun][ãßkun][С][˵][Íø][\\com]
Although the Kingdom of Eros is a semi-feudal and semi-slavery social system, the royal family and church leaders occupy the highest ruling class of the kingdom, while the nobles and priests form the second echelon of rule, and ordinary officials and wealthy people are the citizen class. The debtors were civilians. Although civilians did not have the right to serve as officials, their right to survival was at least protected by the laws of the kingdom.
But those tramps and beggars are a class inferior to slaves. After all, slaves are the property of their masters, and as long as the masters are not too extreme, they will not destroy their property for no reason.
As for vagrants and beggars, they are called the garbage of society by citizens. They can neither pay taxes to the treasury like civilians nor work like slaves. In many cases, as long as the nobles are willing, they can kill these wandering people. Bums and beggars outside the social system do not need to bear any legal responsibility. At most, they will be attacked by political opponents as cruel and inhumane.
Tramps and beggars with such status can taste the bodies of those beautiful priests of Eros. From this, we can imagine the support of those tramps and beggars for the Church of Eros.
This is true for tramps and beggars, let alone those civilians, citizens, and even nobles with higher status.
In a place like this, I want to call on everyone to build a temple for a god in their eyes! This is simply a fantasy! If it weren't for the ascetic monk's lofty identity and status, the presiding priest would have really wanted to say to him: "Old man, are you stupid because of the ascetic monk?"
On the contrary, the village chief expressed his firm support for the ascetic monks, but also expressed his concerns about the ascetic monks' trip. No matter how relaxed the religious policy of the Church of Eros in the Kingdom of Eros is, it may be difficult to suppress it in the face of a heretic¡¯s blatant missionary provocation.
Seeing the disapproval on the face of the presiding priest and the concern of the village chief, Ye Tao chuckled and ended the conversation on the excuse of fatigue. The next day, before the light shone, the figure of the ascetic monk disappeared outside the village.
For this trip to the Nar plane, the body that Ye Tao transformed into was an ordinary human body. He followed the schedule of an ordinary human and did not use any divine magic. Of course, after leaving The earth-shrinking technique used by Ye Tao in the Behemoth Valley was an exception. If it hadn't been like that, Ye Tao was worried that he would be directly surrounded by the believers who came after hearing the news.
Such an ordinary human body became breathless after two hours of leaving the village. This feeling of returning to ordinary human beings gave Ye Tao a fresh feeling. To be honest, let alone After becoming a god, even when he got the dragon's bloodline, Ye Tao had already forgotten what it felt like to be an ordinary person.
The sudden return made Ye Tao have a clear understanding in his heart. No wonder many gods like to come to the world and walk as an ordinary person. This is like being born in the world of mortals. They are high above others. After a long time, they will forget it. Some things are detrimental to the understanding of the rules.
Just look at the gods in the Amala plane and you will know. His Highness Armani has been a god for more than a thousand years, but his godhood has stagnated at the first level. This fully illustrates the problem.
This point is particularly sensitive to Ye Tao at this time. As he walks along the road, the natural breath emitted by various plants, the bright breath illuminated by the sky, and even the fluctuations of the magic network's continuous operation here, all make Ye Tao feel New insights.
Ye Tao believes that if he returns to the Kingdom of God after this trip and exchanges his insights along the way, his research on rules will definitely reach a higher level.
As he walked, thinking about the problem, the natural breath of the places he passed along the way began to gather around Ye Tao unconsciously. This rich natural breath immediately attracted a large group of birds, which flew over Ye Tao's head. hover.
The cry of the bird immediately pulled Ye Tao out of the problem. Feeling the natural breath swirling around his body, Ye Tao couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seemed that he wanted to be an ordinary person, not just his body, and even thought more about it. Nothing works.
Ye Tao immediately dispersed the condensed natural breath. As the natural breath dissipated, the birds that were attracted by the natural breath also left, and the mountain path immediately became the same as usual.
Along the way, the mountain path was bumpy and winding. If Ye Tao hadn't quietly adjusted his body to the golden age of twenty, I'm afraid that his old body of seventy or eighty would not have been able to support it. After such an adjustment, Ye Tao immediately remembered that the identity he used to hide was that of an ascetic monk. Although ascetic monks who advocated nature should be close to nature, they did not say that they could not use divine magic.??All that hard work was in vain, I just went too far.
In the following time, when encountering too rugged mountain roads, Ye Tao also walked very steadily under the influence of natural magic. Along the way, he passed more than ten villages. At the last village, Ye Tao got Going further, we can see the villages controlled by the underground churches.
Since the neighboring villages are more or less familiar with each other, including some of the villagers who are related by blood, there will not be too much natural communication on weekdays. According to those villagers, the villages controlled by the underground church now do not allow outsiders to enter, and the behavior is quite strange and disturbing.
The villagers naturally want to dispel the idea of ????the ascetic monk moving forward. From his words and conversations, it can be seen that this ascetic monk is a knowledgeable and noble priest. If something happens to the ascetic monk, it will also make people sad. There is uneasiness.
But when they got up the next day, the villagers found that the old ascetic monk had already left on the road, showing no fear of the difficulties on the way forward, which made the villagers sigh secretly.
In fact, Ye Taoguang deduced from the villagers' stories that most of those villages were controlled by some churches that believed in false gods. Since these underground churches were called underground, they naturally acted strangely and killed erratically. This trip has passed , just in time to rescue these villages from the clutches of the devil.
Since Ye Tao wants to promote the development of the Wrath of Nature belief here, he has decided to go into battle shirtless. It can only be said that the false gods worshiped by the underground church are really unlucky.
The village standing in front of Ye Tao at this time was Duolunfei Village, which the villagers said was controlled by the underground church. This village was quite large. Just from the wall outside the village, it was almost as big as some small towns.
Before Ye Tao even got close, he could already feel the evil aura faintly emanating from the village, and this evil aura made Ye Tao even more familiar. It turned out to be the aura of the devil.
Well, actually, this is not surprising. If a powerful demon obtains the coordinates of a certain plane, he will find ways to open a space passage to that plane, corrupt some natives into demon believers, and develop that plane. He believes in his own demonic church.
Of course, except for those demons who have great ambitions and want to become demon kings, the ultimate purpose of the rest of the demons in developing this kind of demon church is to satisfy their appetites. Those demon believers will always find ways to control some villages and towns, and then perform some demonic rituals. , sacrificing humans in exchange for the power given by the demons.
It¡¯s just that the demonic aura noticed by Ye Tao is different from the abyssal plane of the Sith Lord. Maybe it¡¯s a demon from another abyssal plane? Ye Tao couldn't help but nodded when he thought of this, and decided to investigate carefully. As long as he could find out the coordinates of the abyss plane, it would be a gain.
As Ye Tao continued to approach the village, a smell of blood was emitted from the village. Judging from the intensity of the smell of blood, I am afraid that a demonic ritual of sacrificing hundreds of people had been held in this village. This smell of blood was just like this. Rich.
Ye Tao is now only a hundred meters away from the village gate. The sentry waiting on the city wall has already noticed this old man. While asking someone to open the gate, he shouted: "Who is he?"
Of course, this question is just to delay time. During this period, many passing hunters have been captured into the village. Coupled with the weirdness of Duolunfei Village, the surrounding villages have begun to stop contacting them. No one has been arrested for several days. You must know that the bishop has issued a strict order. If less than a hundred people are arrested within a month, the guards themselves will have to go to the sacrificial altar in person to feed the demon master.
At this time, someone suddenly appeared. Although he was an old man, to the demon master, he should have the same taste as a human being, and he was one step closer to completing the mission.
In fact, except for those guys who have taken refuge in the devil believers, the rest of the villagers in Duolunfei Village, regardless of age or sex, went to the sacrificial altar and directly dedicated themselves to the devil, in exchange for the devil's reward for the bishop.
As soon as the village gate opened, several strong demon guards rushed forward to catch Ye Tao. In fact, these demon guards are just a little bit of the devil's believers, sharing a little bit of the power in the demon ritual to transform their bodies. Compared with ordinary humans, they are naturally very strong, but that's all. The devil rewards them. The aftermath of their power makes their bodies slightly demonic, making them stronger than ordinary humans, but to true devil believers, their little strength is completely useless.
The degree of demonization of the bodies of true devil believers is at least 30%. This kind of demonization allows them to use some demon-like spells, which makes them invincible in a village in this mountainous area.
"Rebuke the evil!" How could Ye Tao?If the news spreads about letting these demon guards get involved, it would be a big joke. Of course, as an ascetic monk, he naturally has magical powers.
A standard second-level divine spell scolds evil, forming a semicircular arc of light in front of him and striking at the charging demon guards. Although these demon guards are only slightly demonized, they are enough to make the divine spell effective. Bottom line.
The magical light was silent, but the demon guards who were swept by the arc of light suddenly felt a clear loud shout ringing in their minds. At the same time, they only felt their bodies softening, and all the strength in their bodies seemed to be shaken by a loud shout. After being dispersed, the forward steps stopped, and several demon guards immediately collided with each other, collapsed on the ground and passed out.
Ye Tao's current identity is that of an ascetic monk who respects nature, not a savior. Therefore, he did not kill these guys who didn't know whether they were stained with the blood of his own villagers. He just walked past them with just a few sticks. Tiny vines quietly emerged from the ground and inserted themselves into their bodies. When they woke up, they would find that the power they were proud of had disappeared as the demonization was completely dispelled. I wonder if they should feel lucky by then. Still frustrated.
The sentry standing on the city wall was stunned by this scene. He woke up only after Ye Tao slowly entered the gate and struck the alarm bell with all his strength. This inferior alarm bell was originally used by the village to prevent sneak attacks by wild beasts. Thinking of it, it has now become a warning thing for devil believers.
As the alarm bell rang, many demon guards emerged from the simple wooden houses in the village. Of course, these guys who were tempted by demon believers and fell into trouble, Ye Tao would not tangle with them. He pointed lightly with his right hand. , dozens of vines emerged from the ground, and in the blink of an eye these murderous demon guards were tied up tightly. Let alone stepping forward to block Ye Tao's progress, it was difficult to even move a finger. More difficult.
Although the village is larger than other villages, it can accommodate more than 500 people at most, which is less than a small town of 1,000 people. There is only a straight road running through the entire village, and Ye Tao can see the building in the middle of the straight road from a distance. A devil altar with an extremely hideous shape.
Around the altar, dozens of people were tied up. Several demon guards were holding daggers and looking at Ye Tao in confusion. They could not figure out that an old man who looked like he was in his seventies could actually kill their companions. Put them all down.
Of course, for these demon guards who have witnessed the rape skills of demon believers, this is not enough to make them run away in fear. On the contrary, they frequently look at the demon altar from time to time, and the three demon believers standing on the demon altar undoubtedly give them a gave them endless confidence.
On the demon altar that was full of blood, three demon believers wearing blood-red robes were preparing to perform a demon summoning ceremony. Of course, they introduced to the demon guards that this was a god subjugation ceremony, and that the great true god would be here. Come and give them infinite power.
In fact, these three demon believers are planning to sacrifice those demon guards to their demon masters in order to raise the number of hundred people to sacrifice this month. To be honest, being a devil believer is a good career in a place like this. The problem is that if the devil master is too greedy and ignores reality, then the devil believer's life will be a bit miserable.
