Game of the World Tree - Chapter 879

879. Chapter 875: Follow-up, War Begins
Chapter 875:
The snow gradually stopped, but the sky was still dim, gloomy and cold.
Demacia in the crowd put away the magic recording stone in his hand and looked at the center of the square with a complicated look.
“Dead? Old John just died like that?”
Looking at the dignitaries who were gradually leaving the stage, the players were still a little stunned.
“Immortal, what are you expecting? This is Mannia, the headquarters of the Eternal Church in the world of Segus.”
Demacia sighed and said.
“However, as a favored person of the goddess, he must have returned to the kingdom of God now. In a sense, it can be regarded as another beginning.”
As he said, Demacia looked at the sky.
When Old John was martyred just now, he clearly saw the scattered golden photons, which were very similar to the situation after the players died, but it looked more sacred.
According to the setting of “Elf Kingdom”, this is probably the performance of ascending to the kingdom of God.
“What should we do next?”
A player asked unwillingly.
They ran all the way here, but they didn’t save the people. Their mood was not beautiful.
“Of course, we have to complete his unfinished business and publicize today’s trial.”
Demacia said with a serious expression.
After that, he took out the magic image stone, on which you could vaguely see the image of Old John.
It was Old John’s impassioned rebuke and the embarrassed scolding of the Bishop of Trial, until finally, Old John’s figure disappeared in the flames…
“Of course, the current version is not passionate enough, not sensational enough, we need to continue to process it, and then… spread it out.” “In addition, we need to establish a connection with the life believers in the dungeon of Doloria Castle Prison.”
Looking at the crystal-like transparent image stone, Demacia narrowed his eyes and said.
After that, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the castle prison.
“The castle prison that will never be broken…”
He pulled the corner of his mouth.
…
Doloria Castle Prison, dungeon.
The gate slowly opened, and the light penetrated into the dark world. The figure of the dungeon guard chief appeared in the sight of the prisoners and the remaining guards.
The guards’ eyes lit up, and they quickly surrounded him, asking anxiously:
“Boss, what’s going on outside?”
“Is the mentor okay? I heard that the Eternal Church will judge him today…”
“Are the elves ready to rescue the mentor?”
They looked expectant, and even the prisoners in the cells cast their hopeful gazes.
However, when their gazes collided with the captain’s distraught look, they soon felt a thump in their hearts and had a bad premonition.
“Ah…”
The captain sighed softly.
His eyes were red, and there were faint crystal tears.
“The mentor… was martyred.”
He choked and said, his words were full of grief.
Hearing this thunderous news, the people in the dungeon stood still.
Although many people had a premonition, when they really knew about it, they couldn’t help but feel sad.
Sobbing began to sound in the dungeon, and along with the sobbing, there were curses:
“Damn the Eternal Church! Evil Eternal Priest!”
“They took away everything from us, are they going to take away even our hope now?”
“Bang”, a loud noise came from the deepest part of the dungeon, “Wolf Claw” Charles slammed his fist against the wall.
His body was shaking, his face was hideous, his eyes were full of burning anger, and deep in the anger was infinite sorrow.
He gritted his teeth and cursed:
“Fallen Eternal Church, I will fight you!”
As he said that, he snorted angrily, grabbed the iron bars of the cell, roared and tore them to the sides, and lightning flashed from his body. It was the energy released by the magic-forbidden shackles to suppress the prisoners.
Seeing Charles with electric light all over his body and burns all over, the guard chief’s expression changed slightly and he scolded:
“Wolf Claw, what are you doing?! Stop it now! Are you looking for death!?”
“I want to get out! I want to avenge my mentor!”
Charles roared.
“Nonsense! You have been locked up for so many years, why are you still so stubborn! Can you change your werewolf habit?”
The guard chief scolded.
“Leica, don’t you want to avenge your mentor?”
Charles said with red eyes.
Leica is the name of the dungeon guard chief. He has been working in Doloria Castle Prison for more than 40 years and is the oldest man here.
“Revenge? How can I avenge? Just you and me? I know you are a golden professional, but now your power is all imprisoned. Even if I let you go, how far can you go? This castle is full of high-level professionals, and there are several legends!”
After hearing what “Wolf Claw” Charles said, the dungeon guard chief scolded.
“What should we do? The mentor has died, and we are trapped here, doing nothing? What’s the difference between that and death?”
Charles said sadly.
The dungeon guard sighed:
“I have contacted Lord Demacia and the church. After this, they will continue to provide us with secret help.”
“Don’t worry, I will find a way to get everyone out, avenge the mentor, and fight for our future, but… it will take time.” “
The Doloria Castle Prison is heavily guarded. If we force a breakout now, I’m afraid there will be heavy casualties. We must continue to develop our comrades in the dungeon and the castle, waiting for the best time to resist.” “
Don’t worry, everyone, it won’t be long before we will stand in the sun again.”
“Now, please conserve your energy and don’t forget the mentor’s expectations of us… everything is for a better future!”
…
The kingdom of the world tree, the Garden of Eden.
The stars in the sky are brilliant and magnificent, and the lush forest is full of vitality.
The figures of elemental fairies dance in the forest, and the petitioners face the direction of the central temple and keep worshiping.
In the center of the Kingdom of God, in the Supreme Temple.
Eve sat high on her throne, turned off the player’s perspective projection on the Holy Square of Mania, and sighed slightly.
He sighed softly and waved his hand gently.
With his movements, a hidden power spread out, pulling something in the dark, and continued to spread.
Gradually, dots of golden photons continued to gather, and an illusory figure slowly emerged.
The holy priest’s robe, a little thin, but standing straight.
That was none other than Old John who died in the fire of purification.
To be more precise, it was his soul.
His figure was somewhat illusory, and his eyes were empty and dull.
It was not until the light faded that his eyes gradually regained some agility and clarity.
“This… this is…”
Looking at the magnificent temple around him, Old John’s vision was a little dazed.
However, when he felt the sacred power that was almost thick and substantial around him, and saw the holy and beautiful figure on the throne, he soon realized something, and instantly prostrated himself on the ground in excitement, devout and fanatical:
“Your Majesty… Your Majesty the Goddess!”
“No need to be polite.”
Eve said softly.
A gentle force surged out, slowly lifting Old John up.
Hearing the voice of the gods, Old John became even more excited. His eyes suddenly became moist, and he said with some self-blame:
“Your Majesty the Goddess… John has not spread your faith to every corner of Segos. John… I have disappointed you.”
Seeing his ashamed look, Eve shook her head gently:
“No, you are very good. As a devout believer of life and as my favored one, you have tried your best.”
“Your Majesty the Goddess…”
Hearing the comfort of the gods, Old John was even more moved. His eyes were filled with tears and he almost knelt down again.
But Eve stopped his movements, her face became solemn, and her voice was majestic:
“John, your words and deeds have won my approval. As a martyred favored one and a fanatical saint, are you willing to become my first human messenger of God?”
It is difficult to create a demigod.
However, there is one exception, that is, after the death of the believers of the true God, their faith is sublimated into saints.
Because of the high overlap of faith power, the true God can easily promote his saint-level petitioners to demigods, so saints have always been the prepared messengers of the true gods.
At the time of martyrdom, Old John’s faith had been elevated to the level of a saint. His soul had the ability to bear the divine power that was the same source as his faith. At this moment, it was only a matter of course for him to be promoted to a messenger of God.
Old John was overjoyed and knelt down devoutly:
“John…I am willing to be your servant!”
As soon as the words fell, golden light bloomed on his body, and brilliant divine power came from all directions, transforming Old John’s soul.
Divine power poured into Old John’s body, and his body gradually solidified, and his once weak breath continued to grow.
After a while, the light dissipated, and Old John was wearing a more holy and gorgeous robe, and his appearance became younger and more handsome.
Points of light flowed around him, that was the glory of faith.
He leaned forward again, bowed to Eve, and said excitedly:
“John, thank you for your trust.”
Eve smiled and said:
“You deserve it.”
After that, He said solemnly:
“Saint John, from now on, you will assist me in handling human faith matters in the world of Segos.”
Old John was excited:
“I will obey your oracle!”
After giving many instructions to Old John, who had become a demigod, Eve asked him to withdraw.
It took him nearly 200 points of divine power to promote Old John to a demigod messenger. For Him now, this is already a drop in the bucket.
The God’s favored ones are the eyes of the true God. He saw everything that Old John experienced.
However, when the other party was martyred, Eve did not save him.
This is because He can sense that the city of Mania is shrouded in a strong eternal divine power. If he acts rashly, it is likely to trigger a war of gods with Iteo in advance.
Before the Eternal Church on the world of Segos is weakened to a certain extent, starting a war of gods is not the best choice.
After all, the Pantheon is still suppressed on the origin of the world of Segos.
However, the war of gods will not start, but the war of faith can be started.
Presumably… the Eternal Church burned John to death for this reason.
Thinking of this, Eve’s eyes swept through the void to the vast world of Segos, and his eyes became deeper and deeper…
…
Old John became a demigod.
After that, he stayed in the Kingdom of God and assisted Eve in managing the affairs of the Kingdom of God.
Demigods can descend to the world of Segos, but Old John has no plans to descend in a short time.
In his words, John is dead, and a dead person is the most powerful. If he descends as a messenger of God, it is very likely to impact the effect of his martyrdom.
This makes sense. Martyrdom makes people miss, and in many cases, the power of remembrance is the strongest.
However, Eve did not hide the news that he became a demigod, but spread it.
Martyrdom, death, ascending to the Kingdom of God, and becoming a demigod.
For the majority of believers, this is a very inspiring thing.
In Eve’s view, this does not conflict with martyrdom.
Ascension after death, only hearing the name but not seeing the person, sometimes produces a better propaganda effect, and it does not necessarily mean that the person must die thoroughly.
However, before the news that Old John became a messenger of God after his death spread within the church, the trial in the central square of Mania City spread to other places at a faster speed…
The preacher of life who died generously, the hypocritical and shameless bishop of trial, the nobles who were angry and humiliated, the restless people…
The whole trial spread to various places in the form of magic images.
Not only that, this magic image has been well edited, becoming more refined and full of tension. Various appropriate soundtracks make people feel angry, sad, admired, and suddenly enlightened.
Especially in the editing, comparison videos of the Forest of Elves, Maple Moon Free Territory and various parts of the empire were added.
The dream of the Forest of Elves and the wealth of the Free Territory of Maple Moon form a sharp contrast with the wars and poverty in various parts of the empire.
Coupled with the magical video clips of various noble oppressions and collusion between the powerful, it is infuriating and thought-provoking.
The underground black market, mainland peddlers, wandering poets, adventurers… For a time, it seemed that the whole world knew about the trial, knew about Old John’s rebuke of the Eternal Church during the trial, and knew about Old John’s appeal to the general public.
For a time, more and more believers from all over the human kingdom converted to Eve, and more and more people began to think deeply about Old John’s remarks and really began to think about the future of the empire.
In the streets, alleys, bars and hotels, it seemed that the voices of travelers talking about the debate could be heard.
In the black market, the scriptures and various books of the Church of Life were also out of stock and in short supply.
Something that Old John wanted to convey was finally conveyed.
And not long after this life-loving person was martyred, a sacred oracle that shocked the entire continent was also transmitted from the Eternal Church Center in the city of Mania –
the Eternal Church officially declared war on the Church of Life.
The two most powerful churches in the world of Segos finally ushered in a war of faith.
