Chapter 1858: The House Was Robbed
Soon after the ancient half-blood god Ursula appeared, the real "king" of the Sera Empire, King Tieyu, came.
An old man with a height of over 1.8 meters and holding a hook-bladed spear stood in the courtyard. The hook-bladed spear was the most commonly used cold weapon on the battlefield, but it was completely different in this man's hands. Near him, there were still several corpses. These were four contractors from the Paradise of Death. They were slaughtered by the old man without even screaming, just like killing chickens and dogs.
King Tieyu was once a soldier on the battlefield. Everything he had was earned by him on the battlefield. As long as he was there, the Northern Alliance would not dare to attack the city of Alans. One person shocked the enemy country. A "king" who was killed in this holy country with a human identity.
But he is too old now, so old that he doesn't want to get involved in the power system of the empire. As long as the Northern Alliance and the forces of the abyss don't attack, he will not show up. After all, every time he takes action, he will be one step closer to death. King Tieyu only came to see Ursula and left without paying attention to what Su Xiao wanted to do.
Ursula looked at King Tieyu's back. The once strongest man was already old, so old that she could notice it. Ursula vaguely remembered that because the Abyss Snake had bewitched the high-level officials of the Sera Empire, King Tieyu jumped into the abyss alone, fought with the Abyss Snake for two days, and finally blinded one of the Abyss Snake's eyes.
After the assassination, Su Xiao still couldn't figure out which duke was the leader behind the Gods.
Su Xiao thought about it and felt a headache. The situation in the empire was complicated. If he couldn't find any clues, he planned to use the elimination method to find the duke who was easiest to assassinate first. There were only four people in total, and the probability of one in four was easy to win. He could feel that this empire would not last long. Well... this elimination method was very reincarnation paradise.
The high-level officials of the Northern Alliance, who were waiting for King Tieyu's death at this time, had a headache.
"Where did this Sun Church come from?" Red Barnard asked many military generals. It is not difficult to see that this Sun Church is a mess, otherwise it would have existed long ago.
"According to the investigation, it was first spread from the Newland District. The specific person who did it has not been investigated yet." One of the generals, Charles Bond, spoke out his investigation results.
"We already know which area it spread from, why can't we lock the source?" Red Barnard asked puzzledly.
Charles Bond smiled bitterly: "After our people became believers of the Sun Church, they were like bewitched. To deal with the Sun Church is to be their enemy. We can't find out the information about the source of the church. We also sent undercovers to try to get into the Sun Church to obtain information, but soon our undercovers rebelled."
"How many of our people have joined this Sun Church now?" Red Barnard had an ominous premonition. He was waiting for the death of King Iron Feather and then replacing the Sera Empire in one fell swoop.
But according to the current situation, they will not be replaced by the locust-like spreading Sun Church before they replace the Sera Empire. If this is the result, King Tieyu will probably laugh at them.
When it comes to this topic, Charles Bond is a little powerless and desperate: "Two-thirds, including military soldiers."
"..." Most of the generals present were silent. They didn't expect that their homes would be stolen.
Xi's face was not very good, because the word sun reminded her of a bad experience: "I hate the sun."
At this time, a general Taylor Baruch stood up, glaring at Xi, and said: "What's wrong with believing in the sun? The sun can lead us to a brighter future!"
"Baruch, you..." Red Barnard looked at his men in disbelief. Even people at their level have thrown themselves into the arms of the sun. The entire Northern Alliance will be handed over to the Sun Church.
Lin Jiu: OK, I have no objection.
According to his previous style, Red Barnard would have killed Baruch, the "traitor", but he didn't do it because he had a hunch that the consequences of doing so would be very serious.
Think about it, now the entire Northern Alliance has a population of several million, two-thirds of whom are believers of the Church of the Sun, and the proportion in the army is almost half. Taking action against the Church of the Sun is not to detonate this amazing bomb in advance.
"When are you going to usurp the country? I want to see your leader." Red Barnard sat down weakly. He is very good at fighting, but this is no longer a question of whether he can fight or not.
Baruch was confused: "Huh? When are we going to usurp the country? No one notified me."
"What do you mean."
"Boss, I haven't asked you what you mean? We believe in the sun, but we haven't betrayed the alliance." Baruch said bluntly with a silly look.
"..." Red Barnard wondered if he had misunderstood something.
Then, under Baruch's explanation, they truly understood the situation of the Sun Church and the Sun Faith, and then they understood why the followers of the Sun Church spread so quickly and their faith was pure.
The Northern Alliance has a tradition that after a newborn is born, it must survive alone in a cold wooden house for a day, that is, it must be frozen for a day. Only in this way can it drink breast milk. It is not that the residents of the extremely cold land are cruel or crazy. Infants who are born weak cannot survive for more than a month in the extremely cold land. Only the strong can survive. Resources are limited, and reproduction is the hope.
It is very cruel and ruthless, but the belief in the sun can change this situation. Even the weakest children can survive in such an extremely cold place. Not only can they survive, but they can also gain more powerful strength. All they need to pay is their insignificant belief in the sun. Red Barnard thought about it from another perspective and found that if it were him, he would be willing to do it.
And those warriors, they are all full of martial virtues, but war will kill people, and no one wants to be the one who dies. The fire pattern totem that can enhance their strength, using faith to exchange for power, they naturally will not resist.
"Don't you have any high-level people in the Sun Church?" Red Barnard learned from Baruch that the Sun Church had no instructions passed down at all, and there was no information from other high-level people. It was just spreading the fire pattern totem, so he asked.
"There is a son of the sun, and it is he who leads us to the light." Baruch's eyes flashed with a bit of fanaticism. Their belief is only the sun, and they don't need any high-level people. They only need the son of the sun who symbolizes the incarnation of the sun.
Red Barnard asked another sharp question: "What if your son of the sun asks you to usurp the country?"
The naive Baruch was stunned for a moment. He wanted to answer that he would do it, but then he realized something: "The entire Northern Alliance has begun to believe in the sun. It seems that we don't need to usurp any country."
"..." Red Barnard was directly depressed. It turned out that sometimes the truth is the most hurtful.
During the conversation between the two, Xi felt a little uneasy. She wanted to see her trump card. How many of the hundreds of thousands of polar cavalrymen had thrown themselves into the arms of the sun.
