Chapter 127 Serial Explosion
The tyrannical and violent "God of Tyranny" has a bad reputation in the vast parts of the Western Continent. Even if the monarchs like those cruel officials, they should still be careful of being too tough and rebellious, so the administrative concept of Confucianism outside and law inside appears in the East, and they wrap the inner coldness with a kind cloak.
Similarly, even lords who are known for their brutality often allow the actions of the good camp church in their territory, especially to make believers believe that suffering is the test of the "God of Passion". With spiritual sustenance and buffering, their rule will become much more stable.
The temple of the "God of Tyranny" is not only suppressed by the churches of major good camps, but also its establishment will cause serious emotional anxiety and actions to oppose the rulers. The civilians will choose to escape from fear of a tragic future. The merchants will transfer their trading centers, and the small and medium-sized nobles may also conspire to overthrow the tyrants above their heads.
Because many ordinary people regard the priests of the "God of Tyranny" as narrow-minded and self-righteous dictators, who believe that these people use despicable means and violence to try to seize more power; even the adventurers of the natives have always regarded it as a representative of the word "inflexible", believing that they join hands with various monsters, demons, and barbaric creatures to achieve evil goals.
Such a result will be inseparable from the continuous propaganda of the Pan-Continental Church in the kind camp for many years. With the conditions of mastering the largest propaganda machine in the Western Continent, even dead people can say that they are alive. What's more, the style of the "God of Tyranny" and the content of the propaganda are no different. Therefore, even aristocrats, as long as they do not hope to use the power of the "God of Tyranny" church to help themselves solve enemies that cannot be defeated by force, will still regard them as the most extreme threat.
So although the Seven Cities Alliance only gave the other party the qualification to openly build a temple, from another perspective, it also gave them qualified power to publicly preach. Therefore, although a light contract seems to have not paid any substantial things, it can obtain a group of reliable troops during the war. However, the political cost required is not small. In addition to internal problems, other countries have stood on the propaganda offensive of moral commanding heights and the change in attitude of the kind-hearted camp organization will also bring great trouble.
Pastor Gatsby explained in a series of explanations that even those who were not interested in ******* could understand the meaning of the information Mr. Yodel told. What's more, people like Barrett and Rielli were so smart that after they looked at each other, their faces changed suddenly.
Then Barrett thought for a while before speaking: "If the message conveyed by Mr. Yodel is not a problem, and you have been unable to contact Waxson for a long time. Is it possible that Waxson City has a problem under the enemy's offensive?"
"This is impossible!" Pastor Gatsby immediately roared, "Warkson's city defense is not comparable to that of a small and broken place in Winter Springs. What's more, the army there is well-equipped and well-trained. The city's material reserves are also enough to deal with a war..."
But as he spoke, Pastor Gatsby's voice became less and less. Because Barrett's guess was a bit like the situation he was facing. Although he was unwilling to believe that conclusion, the result of sending messages to Waxon City one after another was not responding to it, which really hit his confidence.
"Barrett's speculation is really very likely. Only when a big city falls in the Seven Cities Alliance will the people in power be willing to take the action of inviting the 'God of Tyranny' to quench thirst!" Rielli also seemed to support this time, adding to Barrett's previous statement.
The reason why the Seven Cities Alliance is called the Seven Cities Alliance rather than the Six Cities Alliance or the Eight Cities Alliance is that it is the seven most powerful large cities among the political group. The reason why they can fight against the other two political systems in the North is because of the mutual support between these seven cities.
If a city was captured as Barrett said, the series of chain reactions that would destroy the original local balance. The strength and war potential of the Seven Cities Alliance would be greatly hit, and it would not be surprising that they were in a difficult situation and were in a hurry to seek medical treatment.
"No, I have to try again!" Pastor Gatsby turned around and ran away. At the same time, he thought came to his mind: "If not, send a message to Black Iron City to ask. That dwarf city is the most solid fortress in the Seven Cities Alliance. Even if Waxson falls, there will be no problems there in a short period of time."
Seeing Pastor Gatsby running away, Barrett's face was still terrifyingly gloomy. However, Rielli asked without hesitation: "Barrett, how sure are you of your previous guess?"
"If possible, I naturally hope that the lower the possibility of my guess, the better." Barrett's face became worse, "but it seems that the chance of guessing right now is quite high. Of course, according to my understanding of Waxson City, the probability of falling completely is not high. But maybe there is a street fighting there now!"
"But Mr. Yodel's performance is also very strange. Shouldn't he negotiate with Pastor Gatsby directly? Why should he tell us first!" Rielli expressed some confusion about this.
Barrett knew the joints: "That wasn't because he was afraid of failure. So he found someone like us to beat the edge drum."
There is zero tolerance for failure in the doctrine of the "God of Tyranny". To put it bluntly, any failure is completely allowed. The tyrant will not hesitate to throw the servants who are loyal to him but fail into a terrible and harsh punishment to ensure that others will continue to fully comply with his dogma of obedience. Therefore, any believer of the "God of Tyranny" has an obsession with success in his actions beyond the imagination of outsiders.
"If that happens, we can only wait for news from Pastor Gatsby to come. I hope the Seven Cities Alliance will not be defeated this time! Otherwise, our current situation will be very bad." Rielli sighed and turned around: "Forget it! I'd better go back to the house to copy the scroll! Make more preparations. Maybe I can hold on for a while if I wait for a fight."
"Then I'll just look at the guys in the square first." After saying this, Barrett walked towards the previous observation hole.
About half an hour later, a servant came to Barrett: "I disturbed Mr. Borham. The priest hopes that you will go there immediately. He said there is an emergency now and we need to discuss it with you."
"So fast?" Barrett immediately understood what was going on when he heard the news. He immediately turned around and asked, "Where is the place for the assembly? I'll go there right away."
"In the previous reception room! Mr. Bollum, please hurry up, the priest's tone seems to be very anxious." The servant said and reminded him.
Barrett, who nodded, rushed to the reception room he had been to before three steps. When he opened the door, he saw that not only himself and Clematis, but also Mr. Yodel were also here. However, it was strange that the leader of the mercenary group seemed to be excluded from this meeting.
Pastor Gatsby, who was the host, signaled Barrett to close the door. Then he held the scepter and activated the sound insulation effect in the temple. Then he first walked to Mr. Yodel: "You have wronged you in the previous situation. I have reported this situation to the higher temple. As long as you pass the review, your compensation will arrive soon."
"You can do this! Now our problem is how to solve the current situation." Mr. Yodel's expression was very serious. "The agreement between my Lord and the Alliance of Seven Cities is to help them defeat the invaders. Only then can we gain the ability to preach freely and build a temple. Although our Winter Springs Town is a small place, from the current situation, we can defend the best and good things. In this way, we can restrain some of the power of the Alliance of Seven Cities. If we are lucky, we may also attract the military strength of the Alliance of Seven Cities."
"You mean you plan to use this temple in Winter Springs as a threatening stronghold to share the pressure on other aspects of the Seven Cities Alliance." Clematis's expression was a bit bad, "I don't think we have any reason to pay so much for the Seven Cities Alliance! After all, we don't have any obligations in this kind of thing."
Discovering that Clematis seemed to want to continue to say something, Barrett immediately reached out to interrupt her speech. Then he turned his attention to Pastor Gatsby: "What does the church view? Although the local church has a very poor relationship with the Mammoth Dynasty, it is still OK with the noble parliament. Are those diocese leaders not going to remain neutral this time?"
"This time, even if we want to remain neutral outside the city, it's not enough." Pastor Gatsby gritted his teeth as he spoke: "Do you know why we can't connect with Waxson City? Those damn noble council troops actually ransacked our temple in the city."
