That night, there was a lot of excitement at the construction site outside Bethlehem.

All the Crusaders stationed in the city were dispatched to arrest and detain all the workers from the Idar Territory, so that the poor little gangsters were once again thrown into a familiar prison.

Although Camus Blanchard will not make any drastic reaction to the Principality of Idar in a short period of time, this does not prevent him from extracting the information he wants to know from the mouths of these Idar people.

But what the cardinal archbishop didn't know was... for the Idar people in front of him, going to jail was just like going home.

After all, this group of gangsters spent a long time in the prison of Idar before coming to the holy city of Bethlehem.

During that time, they deeply understood what true faith was and what true piety was, and they prayed to dedicate their lives to the Church of Light.

So in a sense, these gangsters are truly devout believers.

At this time, when the gangsters were imprisoned again, it stimulated the already declining memory in their minds and had a strengthening effect.

Besides, everyone in the underground prison in the holy city of Bethlehem is talented and well-spoken. It feels good to gather together and chat.

only……

After all, the purpose of going to jail this time was to get useful information from them, so...what should come will eventually come.

The investigation of the Idar Territory was a task personally assigned by the Cardinal Archbishop, and was personally handled by the old masters of the Inquisition.

The true purpose of the Idar people is still unknown, and Mike had previously entered a core authority such as the Inquisition. How could such a thing not be taken seriously now that something like this has happened?

And Dolby was the first "lucky guy" to be caught out by the old magicians.

There is a purpose in letting these Idar people chat and spank from prison these days. When the old masters saw that the more than 200-pound Idar strongman was respectful to Dubi, they instantly realized , this guy named Duby may be the core figure among this group of Idar people.

As long as Dube confesses, it will be easy for the remaining minions to be taken care of.

Therefore, the old magicians used the same tactics they had always used. No matter what happened, it was right to come up and give him a good beating first!

The old masters of the Inquisition are all a group of old bachelors. In addition, they spend all day interacting with the prisoners in the prison. As time goes by, their faith in the God of Light becomes weaker and weaker.

In addition to beating and scolding, their daily tasks include beating and killing people. They fall asleep listening to the prisoners' screams at night, so their mentality is somewhat distorted.

Therefore, they finally got a chance to vent again. These old sticks lined up one by one, holding up their sticks with ferocious faces, and ravaged Dolby's body crazily, venting the anger in their hearts.

You know, because of Mike's identity, the entire Inquisition was reprimanded by the Cardinal.

And now that Mike has flown away, the anger in their hearts can only be vented on the Idar people in Bethlehem.

"Ah-"

Dube let out a shrill cry.

When they were in Idar, although some people would spank them, the executioner would control the force so that they would feel pain and be able to work normally the next day.

However, this group of old masters who had suffered thousands of blows obviously did not strike lightly or harshly, causing Dolby to faint several times.

only……

The harder the blow, the clearer the situation Shabi once described to them in the dungeon became.

According to what Shabi said at the time,

As a sinner, he should work to alleviate his crimes.

But,

Why do I get beaten up while working hard?

Of course, Dolby didn't know the reason behind this, nor did he know that Mike had already flown away.

so,

While being beaten with sticks, he had to think about the possibilities behind it, until the old sticks asked a question - What is the Idar Territory like?

Almost the moment he asked this question, Dolby understood!

Yes, labor can alleviate one's sins, but bearing punishment can also atone for one's sins!

Therefore, Dolby naturally organized a clear idea.

The reason why these old magicians beat themselves is because their sins are too serious, and they can only use this artificial "help" to atone for their sins as soon as possible.

And asking yourself about the situation of the Idar Territory is to test whether you are pious and whether you are devoted to the God of Light!

When he thought about this clearly, sincere words suddenly blurted out: "Idar people's hearts turn to the God of Light, and among them, Lord Bruno Stuart, Earl of Idar, is the most pious. Although the people of Idar territory are poor, they regard serving the gods as their duty. A first-rate event!"

Dube did not know that Bruno Stuart had been promoted to Duke, and when he came to Bethlehem to build the Colossus, Bruno had just set off a wave of reforms sweeping the entire Idar territory.

therefore……

No matter what the old magicians asked, the Idar Territory that Dubi saw was really the poor and backward Idar Territory!

Of course, except for the people living in the Idar Territory, no one would believe that an aristocratic territory located on the border of the empire could grow into an empire that could compete head-on with the Odin Empire in just over a year. giant.

Therefore, from the beginning, the interrogation of these Idar people was destined to be in vain.

So much so that when the old master of the Inquisition presented the final results to the Cardinal Archbishop a week later, Camus Blanchard fell completely silent. ,

Of the fifty people, no one gave the answer they expected!

The people are poor, but they are devout in their faith...

The territory is barren, but he yearns for the God of Light...

All the confessions were exactly the same as what Mike said, which made Camus Blanchard have deep doubts about the ability of the Inquisition.

I delegated power to you for a week, just to prove that what Mike told me was the truth?

This is totally nonsense!

Looking at the red archbishop who was on the verge of rage, an old stickman from the Inquisition carefully put forward his idea:

"Your Majesty the Cardinal Archbishop, is it possible that... a year ago, when these Idar people left the eastern part of the empire, the Idar Territory really looked like what Bishop Mike described?"

"You mean... a poor border nobleman has the capital to compete with Odin in just one year?! Do you think this is possible?"

"Can……"

"Pedro Chase! Don't have such unrealistic illusions at any time. You are also an old man of the Church of Light. The church has gone through thousands of years of layout to reach this point. In this process During the process, you and I both know exactly how many setbacks we have experienced. And now, you are telling me that it only took one year for the Idar Territory?"

"This is just speculation..." Pedro Chase replied with a guilty conscience.

He also felt that this explanation was a bit unbelievable, but... no matter how hard he racked his brain, he couldn't think of any other possibility.

Silence fell in the room. After a long silence, Cardinal Camus Blanchard finally said: "That's all, send a few Crusaders to the eastern part of the empire to personally investigate..."

"Understood!" Pedro Chase nodded.

Although privately using the Crusaders directly under the Pope to investigate a border aristocratic territory, this behavior is like watching a bastard with eyes closed - ignoring the turtle (rules) but... I don't know what happened in the eastern part of the empire. With everything going on, the red archbishop really had trouble sleeping and eating.

When the Cardinal Archbishop was confused about the real situation of the Idar Territory and was confused about the purpose of Mike's prostitution in the Church of Light, Mike, who finally returned to the Idar Territory, was busy carrying out activities on the land of the Idar Principality. Preach.

It is true that Hagia Sophia has not yet been built, but this cannot stop Mike's enthusiasm for preaching.

Although his return gave the Principality of Idar full control over religious interpretation in the eastern part of the empire,...

As soon as he saw the Principality of Idar becoming prosperous under the leadership of Master Bruno and the care of Sabi, Lobida and others, a vague sense of urgency would emerge in Mike's heart.

If he doesn't show his worth anymore, Shabi's status in the eyes of the Duke will surpass his own!

Therefore, taking advantage of the current gap, Mike led the priests he had just appointed and began to wander around the entire Principality of Idar and... preach.

Mike's missionary activities naturally received Bruno's full support. With the cooperation of the Idar Immigration Administration, Mike obtained a detailed list of personnel.

As early as when he was relocating the refugees who had just joined the Principality of Idar, Bruno deliberately concentrated those believers in the God of Light into several adjacent migrant communities.

In this way, a more accurate missionary scope has been set for Mike, which can be regarded as another way to improve missionary efficiency.

Only by laying the foundation for this new religion derived from the Church of Light before the Hagia Sophia Cathedral is officially completed can Bruno directly activate the buff of the Guardian of Faith when the Hagia Sophia Cathedral officially stands in the Idar Territory. Let this brand new religion complete the entire process from birth to transformation on the land of the Principality of Idar.

Moreover, is there any time more suitable for preaching than now?

The pain caused by the war still exists, and the entire Principality of Idar is in a state of desperate situation, so Mike hopes to seize this precious opportunity and transform all those who originally believed in the God of Light into Protestant believers.

Even if it is not possible, we must let the seeds of Protestantism take root in the hearts of these believers...

at this time,

In a working-class community north of the Solon River, Bishop Michael, wearing a white holy robe, is holding up the books of the Church of Light with his right hand and waving holy water with his left hand, explaining the new doctrine to the believers kneeling in front of him. "doctrine".

Behind Mike, as background music, a choir composed of twelve boys and girls was singing hymns from church books:

"Aba Aba——"

"Abba~~~~"

"~~~"

Amidst the singing of the children, Mike slowly spoke:

"In the classics of the Holy See of Light, the light, gratitude, kindness and kindness given to the world by the God of Light are the incarnation of all beautiful characters. However... I think everyone present may have doubted why even if you put the light He regarded God as the only savior, but he still failed to change his life."

After hearing Mike's words, most of the people present nodded slightly.

Indeed, they are all devout believers in the God of Light. However... this has not allowed them to avoid the invasion of the Odin people, nor has it changed their fate of wandering.

Therefore, they can only attribute all this to the fact that they are not pious enough and have not been able to impress the God of Light.

But then... "You may think that the reason why you are still experiencing tragic experiences is because you are not pious enough, but... have you ever thought about how the God of Light, as the embodiment of all good virtues, cares about those so-called tributes and complicated rituals?”

Hearing this, the believers present raised their heads and looked at Mike, who was wearing a holy robe.

They feel...

The cardinal in front of him is denying his own faith!

"You mean, the God of Light is fake? But you are the Cardinal of the Church of Light!" A believer boldly asked.

"Of course the God of Light is real, but..." Mike paused, and then said with great certainty: "...The God of Light does not exist in the illusory kingdom of heaven, but exists in each of you. In the heart, it exists around each of us!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the believers present couldn't help but look at each other.

However, Mike did not give them another chance to talk, but continued:

"What is the God of Light? The God of Light is not a noble existence in heaven, but the embodiment of the good character in each of us. As for the gift of the God of Light, it has never been a god who descended from the sky. It’s not a trace, but other people’s selfless help to us in life!”

"Everyone, during the war between the Odins and the Idars, every Idar soldier risked his life and rescued countless civilians from the clutches of the Odins; in today's peaceful period, Idar soldiers Duke Bruno Stuart has provided you with the possibility of being self-reliant, so that all people can create wealth with their own hands."

"The above are the 'miracles' that we need to be grateful for and pray for most. The reverence for the God of Light is never just words. A true believer should be in real life. , use the beautiful qualities possessed by the God of Light to influence others and guard the hope we have."

After the words fell, the believers present fell into deep thought.

For them, as a cardinal, Mike undoubtedly has the deepest understanding of religious scriptures, so... when they hear these completely different words from the past, the first thing they think of is not refutation, UU Read the book www.uukanshu.net but think and understand.

Before that, their prayers and calls had indeed had no good effect, and the tragic fate was still always around them, so that when they heard Mike's words, they gradually developed a sense of identity.

Besides, what Mike said are all well-known facts.

Idar soldiers risked their lives to defend their homeland; the Principality of Idar is peaceful, prosperous, happy and healthy.

Isn’t their current life just like the vision of the heavenly dynasty that the church once promoted to them?

Even if there is a difference, it is completely different from the life in the past.

"Aba Aba~~~~~"

The young singing voice of the choir sounded again. In the clear voices of boys and girls, the believers present recalled the past and then looked at the current reality...

Unknowingly, Mike's words had taken root in their hearts. \u003c/div\u003e
