Chapter 789: The History of Blue Church
In fact, I feel that I really missed the mark.
When I think about how Mobrado's billions of people are now in chaos, I feel like my head is spinning. When I think about how to let them face this sudden disaster, I magnify certain minor issues infinitely. For example, how to explain to them the internal strife between saints? But in fact, this matter is really simple. Lilina's words made people enlightened.
This is what she said: "Boss, have you forgotten that they all regard Apostle Xiling as a sage and worship them?" Can they not believe what the sages say? If you want to lie to death, you can say whatever you want! At that time, we will really have a sage return, change the story about Satan's rebellion in the Bible to another person, time and place, and put it on our head, and just say that the Xiling fleet outside who wants to invade is the rebels. They plan to destroy the world. That's true, isn't it? "
I think the biggest difference between me and Lilina is our moral integrity. My first starting point when thinking about the problem is whether it will cause social unrest, and this girl’s first solution is to put people in a ditch. You have to Acknowledging the latter approach is often simpler and more effective.
And now I wonder how many percent of the scriptures of the Life Goddess Sect were written by this girl with a similar mentality.
Lilina thought of using stories from the Bible to explain the current situation of the civil war between saints to the Mobrado people. Strictly speaking, apart from being a bit confusing, this is the truth. What I have been worried about before is that even this The truth is impeccable in all aspects. Mobrado's social order is still on the verge of collapse. This is just like when the United States attacked Iraq. No matter how confusing the reasons given by George W. Bush are, there are still people in Syria at night. Can't sleep: Even if I know the truth, can I survive being shot in the head?
Later, it was Bingtis's words that made me realize: "You just explained the situation like this. It is the indigenous government's own business to maintain social order. What do you care about whether their society is chaotic? You are not leading the country here. territory."
Facts have proven that people without integrity generally have a more relaxed attitude.
But what Bingtis said makes sense. He is worried about the subordinate civilizations all day long. He is used to seeing other people's social chaos and immediately wants to get involved. It is considered an occupational disease. The indigenous residents here have their own social system and management class. They should have the ability to take care of themselves. Anyway, the war has broken out. At best, we can only consider finding an easy-to-understand explanation based on their cultural habits. They know the real situation. Sandora and I are not used to hiding everything from ordinary people.
Of course, the Mobrado civilization is the descendant of Sandora's servant army, which is one of the reasons why I care too much about them.
A mythical version of the empire's modern history was quickly compiled, in which Lilina played a decisive role. She used her own experience in writing the Goddess Scripture to process the situation of the Revenge Army, and the final packaged story may be particularly familiar to a Christian. This girl copied and pasted directly from the Bible, and named Satan Just painted it black!
Sandora kept silent about this matter, and her position is a bit awkward now, because those rebels are her old subordinates. Although we are also thinking about whether there is any way to recover them, before rescuing them, Rebels are still rebels, and no matter how many secrets they have, they can't explain the serious crime of betrayal like opening fire on their queen. In the world view of the Xiling Apostle, this is a serious crime that collapses first and then asks questions. Even Ling Chi can't understand the hatred. Sandora still treats them. Though caring about others, other commanders in the imperial army were already gritting their teeth at those former compatriots who fired on their emperor.
We are already familiar with the issue of how to make the first formal contact with the Mobradorans. After causing harm to other worlds many times, I have fully realized that as an alien with a relatively high level of civilization, I have to deal with the indigenous people of other planets. What an advantage they have when making contact. Basically, you will receive a grand reception if you hit their planet in any way. I am embarrassed to admit that those alien armies in the movie are tormented to death by shampoo and cold viruses. people.
On a sunny and breezy mid-morning, the Papal City of Mobrado was immersed in a tense and depressing atmosphere. This atmosphere had lasted for twenty-four hours, and a certain delicate balance was on the verge of collapse. There were basically no pedestrians on the streets, only heavily armed church paladins and government troops hurriedly walking by. This was an almost unimaginable and depressing scene in the formerly prosperous Papal City. Some street corners still bear traces of the chaos, with scratched walls, torn pieces of fabric, a few cans and drink bottles. They were born in a rally that only lasted five minutes. The highly nervous paladins quickly suppressed the young people who were always full of deviant thoughts and gathered outside the Papal Palace, even though the latter just skipped class and played games. ’s: Facts have proved that not studying hard really has to pay a price.
The dense but orderly streets of the Papal City that resemble spider webs were directly planned when the city was founded...and are never allowed to change, because it embodies the architectural style of the sages. All these straight streets converge on the huge square in the center of the city, focusing on a huge fortress building like a greeting from all the people. It is tall and majestic, full of strong metal and mechanical style, with a silver-gray shell and inlays on the walls. With precious nether energy crystals, it is obvious that this building is modeled after some kind of Xiling relic. This place called the Papal Palace is the de facto highest authority in the entire Mobrado society. Of course, it usually appears as a purely religious holy place.
Nowadays, the door of this majestic and sacred place is closed, and there is only a circle of holy knights standing guard in the square, which is always full of prayers. These Vatican warriors, whose whole bodies are hidden under silver-gray iron armor, use their weapons to warn all those who try to For those who approach, the low-pressure belt condensing above the square causes even a passing mouse to click on its heels and run over quietly, holding its breath.
After the entire galaxy was declared to be in a state of emergency martial law, the Papal Palace had been closed for a whole night, and no substantive news came out from inside. No one knew about the man who had maintained the Mobrado for hundreds of years with twelve "criminal sharpies" Some people have made pessimistic speculations about how the peaceful man intends to solve the turbulent situation in front of him this time, because according to rumors, the crisis encountered by Mobrado this time lies at the root: the interpretation of the sages.
For a theocratic society, a shift in divine authority is more likely to destroy an entire civilization than a world war.
Rumors are still brewing in other parts of the world, and have even produced sub-two-digit dialect versions in remote places, but in the Papal City the rumors have been suppressed. However, no matter how fast the suppression is, it can only be suppression. The insecurity in the hearts of the people will not dissipate due to the suppression, and some inappropriate actions taken by the church at the beginning also made the situation much worse.
Before the turmoil broke out, a scholar ran out of the Papal Palace frantically. He loudly declared that the sages had returned to destroy the world, and that a civil war had broken out among the sages. The Misty Star was destroyed by them in an instant. This scholar was the spokesman for the Papal Palace who was originally preparing to explain to the public the scene of the saint's return in real time. His crazy remarks immediately shocked the waiting believers in the square, and what happened next made the situation even worse: the highly respected scholar The Holy Knight Captain was burned to death on the spot with the Sharp of Judgment. The charge of "blasphemy" was directly pressed without trial. The Holy See Knight controlled all the gatherings in the square. After a twelve-hour secret interrogation, He was released home, but he had lost his memory of the past half day. Then came the galactic martial law and the blockade of the Papal Palace. The Pope himself issued a vague announcement fifteen minutes after the scholar went crazy. The only substantive content of the announcement was that the return of the saints would be delayed, and then this glorious and sacred palace The city has become this lifeless look.
The above is what happened in the Papal City in the past twenty-four hours, and Sandora and I are analyzing it. As for our location, well, right above the Papal City, we are also leading a group of invisible imperial warships.
Once again, the aliens exercised their voyeuristic privileges.
"How old is this pope?"
It was the first time I noticed the detailed information of the Blue Church that I discovered that there was something so interesting in it: According to the records of the Blue Church, there is only one Holy Pope. Since the establishment of the religion, he has been the only one until now. Bit: This guy has lived for at least three hundred years.
"He? He is immortal." Uncle Zaku, who was sitting next to us with a depressed expression, whispered in a melancholy voice. Originally, their family of three were just ordinary citizens and did not need to mix with us, but Milia In the end, Uncle Zaku was dragged over by force. It is said that the purpose was to let "his country bumpkin uncle" see the truly powerful sage spaceship. "The holy pope received the gift of the sage and became immortal, so he called himself They are people who have inherited the truth of ancient times, and the same is true for the twelve knights of the church. However, the latter need to rely on the power of the "Crime Judgment" to maintain their immortality, but they are still hundreds of years old. …,
From Uncle Zaku's voice, I couldn't hear any respect or pagan contempt for the so-called holy pope. It was as if he was talking about a passerby who had only heard the name. This is not the same as Ordinary Mobrado citizens are different.
So I concluded that Uncle Zaku may only be talented in this aspect of lack of heart and lungs.
The Blue Church has ruled the world for nearly three hundred years, but its leader remains a mystery to ordinary people despite his frequent appearances in public.
It seems that someone deliberately concealed the leader's past in order to create a mysterious "savior..." identity. From the limited information, Sandora and I could only roughly outline a paranoid shadow for him: Holy. The Bishop appeared more than three hundred years ago and then rose rapidly. He used unknown methods to awaken the legacy left by a group of ancient sages. Using this legacy, he summoned his partners to form the Knights, which is now The twelve condemned knights (including him, there are thirteen in total). At that time, the Mobrados were still fighting to death on their own planet, and the civil war continued. However, the thirteen knights who emerged out of nowhere became a myth. A miracle like that. They swept through the armies of every country, commanding unparalleled ancient weapons in ways that ordinary people could not imagine, and defeated waves of opponents. The behavior of the Thirteen Knights puzzled everyone at first. Mind: These people do not make any declarations or announce any political views. As long as there is a war somewhere in the world, they will descend on the battlefield and kill all the warring parties from grassroots officers to above, regardless of camp, even in their own territory. In the government building, the head of state who announced war against a hostile country would also be shot in the head by them while breaking through all the guards while holding a press conference. In the first few years, these thirteen knights were shot in the head by all the people in the world. People were horrified to call him the "Silent Butcher" and triggered several coalition sieges around the world. This siege ultimately greatly alleviated the population crisis on the planet Mobrado.
But apart from that, the Thirteen Knights never took action. They even showed up publicly in neutral countries and did not carry out any activities. They seemed to just prove "I exist" and then disappeared after causing a panic. This made everyone confused. People are panicked.
This silent execution is said to have lasted for eight years. In the holy book of the Blue Church, it is called the Pi Sin War. During these eight years, the Thirteen Knights almost destroyed the military of any country in the world that dared to launch a war. Machines, all wars and hostilities were rudely prohibited, including civil racial discrimination and even class discrimination. At this time, some people finally began to understand the intentions of these silent massacres, and the conclusion was dumbfounding: they were promoting world peace... …
Yes, it is to promote world peace. No matter what the means, no one in the world will dare to start a war after eight years. Many countries with strong aggressive intentions were even beaten by the Knights of Conviction. In the age of steam, the world is at peace. Enemies who had once been at each other's throats began to greet each other with smiles at international conferences. When the two ambassadors met, they would hug each other for five minutes regardless of whether it was a holiday or not. Even if people around them began to doubt her sexual orientation, they would never let go. There is no longer mutual oppression between countries in the world. Even when two patrols meet on the border, they must first greet each other cordially about what they had for breakfast. Racial discrimination has disappeared. Mutants and lycanthropes finally dare to walk in the sun. Although the rulers of the upper class are secretly gnashing their teeth, for the ordinary people who have suffered from the long world war, peace has really come.
This is a history that seems very distorted to others, but the Mobrado people regard it as the first step in the rise of their own civilization. The Thirteen Knights became a being that made the world tremble. Then, as you can guess, These guys who never spoke and were cool as hell finally spoke up one day.
They finally publicly announced their doctrine. The leader of the Thirteen Knights claimed that he had inherited the knowledge of the ancient sages and was fulfilling the mission entrusted to him by them. He declared that only by establishing a truly unified, strong, and authoritative belief in the ancient sages could salvation be achieved. world, and then this group of mysterious elements suddenly emerged and established the Blue Church.
The teachings of the Blue Church are knowledge, order (or obedience) and unity. They worship the incredible technology left by the ancient sages, and regard the items scattered in the technological ruins as holy objects. Only the Blue Church has the right to use those holy objects (this is why Uncle Zaku is afraid of the holy objects in Milia's hands. The reason why Pan was known to others), they regarded the nether energy in the ancient ruins as a holy spring and named it the Blue Light. The Thirteen Knights, after their leader was crowned as the Pope, should now be called the Twelve Knights. The intellectuals among the Twelve Knights developed a method to safely use blue light. Although it was very primitive, it allowed Mobrado to quickly enter the space age. The Blue Church pursues an iron-fist policy regarding its doctrines, and thankfully the content of the doctrine that they need to use such cruel methods to maintain is "unity." Just as the original Thirteen Knights did, they absolutely prohibited the intelligent creatures born on the planet Mobrado from killing each other, which in some ways saved the entire world. Only then did people suddenly discover that the original Thirteen Knights were no longer just thirteen people. They had already built up a huge team of fanatic believers in their activities for many years. After transforming into religious figures, this group of people in the The team that was regarded as the world's largest terrorist organization three hundred years ago naturally became the first generation of Archbishops of the Blue Church.
The pattern of the world was formulated in this way under absolute power.
Of course, it was impossible for the opposition to die out at the beginning. After all, ordinary races were not Xiling Apostles, and they had not grown up under the rule of Xiling Apostles. It was difficult for their original leaders to accept that they suddenly had to obey a group of people. There are many facts about the command of fanatic believers, but obviously, the primary thermal weapons that still dominated the world at that time were simply unable to compete with the satellite cannons, space implosion bombs, Xiling unmanned attack aircraft and psionic cannons in the hands of the Twelve Knights. So they could only swallow their anger. Some of the younger generation leaders also had a very naive fantasy, that is, after these thirteen insane but super-strength lunatics died of old age, maybe the world would return to peace. This kind of naive The fantasy lasted until the youngest of the young leaders died in the life-support capsule at the age of two hundred. I think it must be more painful for him to wait for the Twelve Knights to die of old age than for Naruto to finish.
This is the most noteworthy history of the Blue Church and the world in the past three hundred years.
The Mobrado civilization has been booming since then. The sacred objects and knowledge unearthed from the ruins of the sages have allowed the indigenous people here to enter the space stage. In fact, long before the appearance of the Thirteen Knights, there was research on the relics of saints in this world, and some people simply mastered the skills of using a small number of holy relics. After all, the entire Mobrado civilization was built on the foundation of the holy relics. Up. Those who studied ancient knowledge were called "Item Masters" before they were all integrated into the Blue Church or wiped out. But their research on the holy relics and their use of the holy relics are nothing compared to the Thirteen Knights. , the latter may have really inherited the memory from ancient times. According to records, they are even as relaxed as a real Xiling apostle when using satellite cannons.
"I think this Blue Church is very valuable for research."
Bingtis was lying on Shandora's shoulder, looking at the information on the information terminal through the gap between my head and Guidora's. The female gangster was exhaling like a orchid at the moment, Shandora was in her provocative giant breasts. x remained silent under pressure.
"I don't like this mysterious pope and his organization very much." Sandora frowned. "Iron-fisted rule and indiscriminate rule are not the same concept, and he used the empire's legacy to build an altar for himself. Even if that person really worships Xiling Civilization, his behavior is dissatisfying. "!.
