Chapter 263 Brave Elanie
“Judas first used exploitation to keep the people in poverty.
They kept claiming that it was because the people of Skikda did not pray hard enough to the angels, and that the angels were punishing them, that Skikda had suffered natural disasters year after year.
Under Judah's instigation and declaration, the people believed it to be true, which led to a large number of pan-believers in the city of Skikda.
Otherwise, how could so many people believe in angels in such a remote city like Skikda?
He could make people starve to death and still think of praying. Do you think Judas was very capable?
Judas' performance improved, so he made money and moved up the ladder, didn't he?
In addition, the legendary order he bought with his own money made up for his last shortcoming, and he rose to prominence and was promoted to the chief priest.
Good people don't live long, but evil deeds last for thousands of years.
If you put Judah and Rei together, Adela and Catherine will definitely choose Rei as the officiant, and Ronnies will definitely choose Judah.
They value different things.”
Fei Rui nodded and said, "I see. I understand."
Qi Ge glanced at Fei Rui suspiciously and asked, "What do you understand?"
“Elasia didn’t believe in the ballista, but insisted on believing in angels, which is why she became what she is today!
Disbelief in the Ballista is the root of all evil in Erathia!
The blazing fire illuminates my mountains and rivers, the Crossbow Cult, boom boom boom!"
Qi Ge has a toothache.
What kind of politics am I talking about with Fei Mengmeng, who has a crossbow as her brain? It would be strange if she could understand.
At this moment, Qi Ge suddenly realized.
No, Fei Rui is right!
Before the Paladins became extinct, the ballistae of Erathia were indeed very powerful.
At that time, Erathia's ballista manufacturing technology was even better than that of the tower.
Unfortunately, with the coming of the angels, Erathia slowly embarked on another path.
Chatting along the way, Lai brought Qi Ge and Fei Rui into the city lord's castle.
Lai turned around and asked, "Now that you're here, can you tell me what you're going to do?"
Fei Rui took a step forward, touched the Yasha fire in the castle, and prayed:
"I, Fei Rui, in the name of the Lord of Mlangko City, request to leave Erathia tomorrow."
"I, Seven Doves, in the name of Apostle Yasha (Architect), ask Mother God for permission."
A burst of light emanated from Qi Ge and Fei Rui's bodies at the same time, and the Yasha fire of Mrangko City began to leap as if it had life.
Although Lai didn't know what was going on, he had a very bad feeling in his heart. He rushed forward and wanted to stop Qi Ge and Fei Rui.
"What are you doing! What are you talking about?! What's the matter with leaving Erathia?!"
Lai wanted to interrupt the ceremony of Qi Ge and Fei Rui, but the Yasha fire on the city of Komulanko emitted a strong light and bounced Lai away.
Lai was knocked against the wall of the city lord's castle and could not move at all, like a pot sticker pressed against the inner wall of an iron pot.
His face kept shaking, just like his trembling heart.
The Mother Goddess is punishing me. Mother Goddess Yasha won't let me get close?
Why? Why can they mobilize the power of the Mother Goddess? !
Three minutes later, Qi Ge and Fei Rui's ceremony finally ended.
Qi Ge and Fei Rui looked at each other and smiled.
Behind them, Lai’s grief-stricken voice, as if her faith was shattered, could be heard: “Supreme Mother Goddess, why would you help the traitors who betrayed the angels and Erathia?
Could it be that what I have been insisting on is wrong? ! "
Qi Ge turned around and answered:
"You are right to insist. It's not you who is wrong, but the whole of Erathia."
Lai's expression was a little stunned. He looked at Qi Ge as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
"It's you. What did you do?"
"Let me explain it to you.
About the root cause of all social problems in Erathia and the ultimate solution. "
…
Adela was walking in Charles City, a county town. Beside her, a kind-looking archbishop introduced excitedly:
"Your Majesty, after you left, although our church did not develop more believers, we got along very well with the people of Charles City."
Adela took Archbishop Lincoln into the castle of Charles City. Archbishop Lincoln said happily:
"Your Majesty, you see, our church in Charles City has already built a library and a large prayer room, and soon we will be able to build a trial room.
As long as Charles City is upgraded to a main city, we can immediately build a temple here, and we can also quickly build advanced temples and large temples. "
Adela smiled and asked softly, "Lincoln, it's really hard for you to raise so much gold coins and resources in Charles City."
Lincoln raised his head proudly and said, "It's all for the purpose of spreading the glory of God!"
"By the way, will we confiscate the homes of the non-believers in Charles City and exterminate their entire clans?"
Lincoln was stunned and stammered as he replied, "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"
"Lincoln, the library, the great chapel, and the trial room were all built after Sir Mlaque left, right?
You are certain that he will never come back, so you act recklessly.
I am still a step late.”
Lincoln stammered, "Your Majesty, I am here to spread the faith of God. You don't know how hateful those unbelievers in Charles City are.
They have no idea how great angels are, and they say they would rather die than believe in our church."
Adela gave Lincoln a look of pity.
“You were never for God, you were for yourself.
God would not have a lot of gambling debts in Holy Heaven City, God would not build his house bigger than the prayer room. God would not send a letter to the camp to let the Hell Heroes in the portal pass through.
When he commissioned me to investigate, I really didn't expect that person would be you, Lincoln.
Why on earth did you betray Erathia, contact Ou Fu, and attempt to frame Luo Shi's family?"
With every word Adela spoke, Lincoln's face turned paler.
Until Adela finished speaking, Lincoln knelt down tremblingly and replied hastily:
"Your Majesty, I..."
"You can't lie in front of me, Lincoln, you know that."
Lincoln's face turned pale, and his voice trembled: "Because Luo Shi once cut off one of my son's hands. I, I hate him.
Moreover, what Ofer gave was too much.”
"I see."
Adela mobilized the power of the Yasha fire to suppress Lincoln, and at the same time, she patted Lincoln's head.
Lincoln's appearance was calm as usual, but his mind was frozen forever.
…
Sosa cut off the head of a Papist bishop who had committed many evil deeds, occupied an Acropolis, and took over the Acropolis with his army amid the cheers of the people on the Acropolis.
She turned around and looked at the city. Countless people of Mlak were cheering and waving flowers around.
The people, having taken revenge, rushed into the church and destroyed the tables, chairs and prayer tables one after another.
The peasants cursed the beheaded bishop:
“God damn it.
Sir, when he is not here.
I planted 10 crops of food and you want to take away 12.
3 for prayer taxes, 3 for national taxes, 3 for war taxes, and 3 for building churches for you.
I still owe you 2.
When my grandfather was in Oufu, the demons only took half.
Good death! "
…
Qi Ge and Adela divided their troops into three groups and dealt with different types of church forces according to the intelligence left by Sir Mlak.
The Seven Pigeons are responsible for the church monks that Sir Mlak favors, as well as those who need to be rescued.
Adela is in charge of his former subordinates.
Sousa was in charge of the hopeless bastards of the Pope's faction, Inheim's men.
After a day of hard fighting, Qi Ge and his men finally liberated the Mlak Territory before dark.
Behind Adela and Qige were a group of surrendered heroes, but Sousa was the only one covered in blood, but behind her were countless civilians.
Along the way, Sousa killed many people.
The entire territory of Mrak was completely occupied, and the plan reached the final step.
Feri took Adela back to Skikda.
Adela needs to use the teleportation array in Skikda City to reach Shengtian City before dawn to create an alibi.
Even though Adela and Qi Ge ran all the way from the East Expedition City to the Mlak Territory, in the eyes of other NPCs in Erathia, Adela had always been in Skikda City and had never left.
Under the cover of night, the Yasa fire of Speed City, the main city of Mrak Territory, was bright and flickering.
The smoke of the day has dissipated, and the pseudo-legendary hero of the church stationed in Speed City was killed by Adela.
The remaining church forces, troops and heroes either died or surrendered.
It can be said that all of Ronis's power in the Mlak Territory has been uprooted.
Night falls.
Next to Sir Mlak's castle, Qi Ge was surrounded by a group of NPCs.
An old man was trembling with a cane, and his words were not very clear, but he still held Qi Ge's hand tightly and asked anxiously:
"Lord Qige, is the knight really still alive?"
“I’m still alive, but for some reason, I can’t meet without you for the time being.
This is a letter from the Sir."
Qi Ge handed a letter to the old man, who handed the letter to a young woman beside him with trembling hands.
The woman opened the letter and read:
Ain, Cham, Lal Khan...
I still miss the days when I came back from Oufu with you.
At that time, I was in the prime of my life and you were still young.
I will always remember the blood and fire along the way, and your laughter when you returned to Erathia.
…
…
I promised you that I would bring you a happy and peaceful life.
But I broke my promise.
You followed me to fight, and six out of ten of you died.
Your descendants, generation after generation, have followed me in my battles, and have made continuous sacrifices.
Peace and happiness, but you have never enjoyed them.
Erathia has never been at peace, and I am not a qualified lord.
…
…
Now, it's my turn to leave for a while, but I will definitely come back.
For my promise to you, for our common dream.
You follow the seven pigeons and wait a moment. I am in hell, but I will come back eventually.
wait for me.
-Mlak"
After finishing the long letter, the old man was already in tears and sobbing.
“Chaim is my grandfather.
This is the letter that the Sir wrote to my grandfather.
My Lord, our Cham family has followed you for three generations, and we have never regretted it!
Now my son is in your army, and in the future, my grandson will also join your army.
We are willing to fight for you."
"Me too! I'm willing to fight for Sir!
My Lord Sir used the bonus and salary awarded to him by Erathia to construct buildings that would benefit us civilians.
Advanced farmland, large ditches, circular fisheries...
The knight's own house is not even as big as the houses of some wealthy merchants.
He has us in his heart, and we have him in our hearts.”
“Sir Mlaque has been delivering on his promises.
From my childhood till now, he has been trying hard to take care of us.
The church. We wouldn’t be where we are today if it weren’t for the damn church.”
Qi Ge listened to the shouts around him and felt deeply the personal charm of Sir Mlak.
It is not easy for an NPC hero to have so many loyal subjects.
They don't have a player loyalty panel, so they only know the player's face but not his heart.
Although Qi Ge really wanted to ask where the study in the city lord's castle was, the atmosphere was too heated and Qi Ge was unable to open his mouth.
Just then, Qi Ge felt his pants being gently pulled.
He looked down and saw a little girl with twin ponytails staring at him with big watery eyes.
Qi Ge bent down, touched the little girl's head, and asked:
"Little boy, what do you want to talk to your brother about?"
"Uncle, is my grandpa still alive?"
"Who is your grandfather?"
The little girl proudly put one hand on her chest, raised her neck and said:
“My grandfather is Salit Lal! He is a great hero who followed Sir Mlak.
I am Salit Elani, and when I grow up I will follow Sir Mlak to defend Erathia!
For the people, for the glory of the knights!"
Elani, ah, is Salit Lal's granddaughter.
Qige stroked Elanie's hair. Elanie stood straight, looking at Qige motionlessly, allowing Qige to stroke her.
"Elani, your grandfather is safe and sound. He should be with our Queen Catherine in Erathia now.
I'll be back to see you soon.
How is your mother?
Brother, I heard that your mother was kidnapped by the church."
"That's great, Grandpa is still alive. Mom will definitely be very happy to know."
Elani was relieved at first, then she rolled up her sleeves and raised her hands proudly. Elani's arms were covered with whip marks that had just healed after the skin was torn.
Qi Ge's pupils shrank.
"My mother and I were indeed arrested. They wanted us to be undercover agents for them.
But we never gave in!
They whipped Elanie, very painful whips.
Elanie never cried."
Qi Ge touched the scar on Elanie's hand with some heartache. She was just a child who looked less than 7 years old. This should have been the time when she was most innocent, but she encountered such a thing.
Elanie's eyes were huge.
Even though she had been treated like this, Qi Ge could not see despair and fear in her eyes. Instead, she saw optimism and cheerfulness.
It's really rare for such a young child.
Qi Ge tried his best to control his killing intent and asked softly:
"Elanie is so brave. Where are the people who captured Elanie? Does Elanie know where they are?"
