Chapter 506 Great Turmoil

The impact of Roland's miracle directly changed the entire Bansa situation.

Resurrecting the dead, rejuvenating, and killing gods—Roland, who completed three miracles in one day, became a greater existence than gods overnight.The miracles he performed almost destroyed people's inherent cognition of gods.

Can you bring the dead back to life?Can you rejuvenate believers?If not, why should I believe in you and not follow Roland?
Moreover, Roland's third miracle gave people even more courage.

Believers in the past had the impression that gods were omnipotent.There is nothing a god cannot do - blasphemy will lead to discovery, betrayal will lead to death.

However, everything is different now.

If gods can be killed, then there are exceptions to everything.If I blasphemed the gods, the gods would personally come to me to settle the matter... Maybe I can kill him back.

Roland's greatest achievement is to give people such a possibility.He made people realize that God is not the supreme arbiter.Gods have their limits too - and that limit is alive and well among them right now.

Moreover, once the gods' abilities reach their limits, they will be compared to others - and they will no longer be as revered as they once were.

The reason why the gods in the Farnes world do not have a clear hierarchy is because there is basically only one god in each realm.

For example, Sivir, she is the god of war and battle; Tyre controls the sun and justice, while El Sax is violence, and Nix is ​​the secret and shadow.Basically, there is only one god in charge of all fields, and there is no distinction between strength and weakness without comparison and nature.

You can't compare Connie to Al Sacks in power, or Thiel to Knicks in charisma.If they are not in one field at all, there is no comparison between them.

Even if he is as powerful as Tire, he still doesn't have any healing spells that he can bestow on priests.Although Connie herself has almost no combat power, as a monopoly of medical resources, she is still admired by thousands of people.

But it's different now.

Once the strong and weak are distinguished, people will become more disrespectful to those weak gods.

Before Miracle Day, people had never questioned how Connie would punish her apostates—but now when people calm down to trace the root behind it, they realize that she has nothing to do with traitors.

"It turns out that gods are just like this" - such irreverent thoughts were implanted in their minds.

The scariest thing is that what they think is undoubtedly correct.

It is even so correct that they start to wonder why no one has realized such a simple problem for thousands of years?

Gods are just mortals.

Once people realize this, the soil of their unconditional worship of gods crumbles.

Belief in God is not as good as belief in Roland - at least Roland can bring them great miracles.But the gods cannot do the miracles Roland did.

In this price war that has been going on for hundreds of years within the gods, Roland finally emerged and won with a crushing quality advantage.

Roland's great miracles spanned multiple fields, and each one was a great miracle that the gods in this field could not replicate.

The seat of the gods is stolen after all.It's like learning to create a file through the template inherent in the software, but when it comes to deeper and more flexible software usage methods, they don't know anything.

The gods are, after all, only mortals.The management system of the Wall of Aum was not intended to be used by beings other than the saints, and they couldn't even understand the meaning of the runes above.

In this respect, wizards are better than they are.Thousands of years ago, when wizards received their witchcraft from the Wall of Aum, the gods claimed that it was knowledge from the devil, an evil force that stole the essence of the world.

But now, they can't use this reason to slander Roland.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that what Roland did was not juggling or the tricks of the devil, but a real miracle that only existed in mythology.

He is even the pope of Tyre, holding the ring of the sun, and to slander him is to slander Tire itself.

The pope does not mean that he can take office as soon as he takes office.Without the permission of the gods, the power ring will not be activated at all.

In other words, Roland was indeed the current pope chosen by Tyr himself before his death.

If the gods deny Roland's authority, it is tantamount to admitting that even the pope is just a mortal and can make mistakes; if they deny Tyre's authority, it is tantamount to admitting that even the gods are not always right; Not making any defense here is tantamount to acquiescing to the statement that Roland is greater than them.

What is even more distressing is that the gods are in the astral world, so they have no way to communicate with each other and exchange opinions.Only through the pope's mouthpiece can they express their opinions.

But now it is only the second day of the three days of miracles, and their pope is not sure whether these rumors are true or not.If someone is fooled and these are just fake news or exaggerated news, then the losses caused by denying these rumors cannot be made up in a few years or more.

These legends are so outrageous that one by one, even though the popes keep receiving similar reports, they still can't believe it.

Because these reports are the testimony of some "eyewitnesses".None of them are the testimony of the "participant" to the miracle.

On the second day of Miracle Day, those who attacked the holy city disappeared without exception.

Mind you, everyone.

Whether it was mercenaries, ashes, or regular soldiers who hid their numbers—no one knew the whereabouts of these 8000 people. When anyone described them, it was as if they had forgotten their existence. .

These things are full of doubts.It was full of conspiracies, so these popes couldn't help but hesitate.

At the same time, there was another person who felt depressed.That's Bantha's Mad Dog Queen.

Today, she is not very crazy, and she will not act completely on intuition like she did later.

The [-] regular troops that disappeared out of thin air made her dare not act rashly.

That was a regular army of 2 people, the sum of many of the best infantry regiments—but none of the soldiers who went to the Holy City returned, and disappeared into the entire world out of thin air, not even the most loyal soldiers to the queen. Send back the slightest news.

What hurts the queen the most is that they still have a full set of equipment...

Such 2 people working with Bansa's wizard group are enough to regain the now weakened Kalal.But now they don't know whether they are alive or dead. The Queen, who has lost her most important main force, does not dare to move other troops to see the situation.

Think about it, if Roland's power is enough to wipe out the 2 regular army without a sound, then it doesn't seem to make any difference to fill in another [-] to [-]; and if Roland subdues all of them, then Even more frightening.

What level of appeal is that?That is completely enough to subvert the royal power!

So, the Queen made the wisest choice.

Send spies to inquire about the news in many ways, and then gather the strength first, then stand still and see the situation.

Roland's great miracle muddied the waters throughout Bansa overnight, and according to him, there are still two days of such a miracle.

If nothing else, on the third day, Bansa will fall into unprecedented chaos.

At that time, all kinds of snacks would pop out.Only at that time is the best shot.

I have to say that she made the right choice.

Because, after Roland's perception was amplified by the crown, he could charm everyone present with just a few words.

Once you are charmed by Roland even once, you will be counted as a follower of Roland for a short period of time.At this time, they will be affected by Roland's aura - under the dual effects of fanaticism and personality worship, it is impossible to break free as long as the will is still within the scope of human beings.

There was another party who fell into Roland's charm, and that was the mercenaries.

Of all the people who witnessed the miracle that day, no one betrayed Roland.Not only that, under the call of Kyle Mora, the former pope of the God of Contract and now a follower of Roland, other believers of the God of Contract in Bantha and Titan were also inspired and fell into the arms of Roland.

By the time the sun rose the next day, more than four-fifths of the believers of the God of Contract had changed their beliefs to Roland.

After all, the God of Contract is dead, and they will not be punished even if they change their beliefs.

And just like Thiel.Their magical effects also rapidly weakened after the fall of La.

The God of Contract did not have a "holy city" as the center of faith like Tire, nor did he prepare an icon for himself to store divine grace.Therefore, after the fall of La, all priests who believed in the God of Covenant did not have any transition, and immediately weakened to the limit.

All priests below the silver rank, even if their divine grace is successfully consumed, will not produce the slightest effect; while the bishops whose rank reaches the silver rank and above, and whose souls are closely connected with the domain, although they can use divine spells normally, they His charism is no longer replenished.

On the contrary, after Roland extracted a cornerstone element of Ra, he bestowed all of Ra's blessings on Kermora.Since Kermora does not have a voter template like Roland, and the soul can store divine graces that far exceed the limit of his use, Roland transformed them and stored them all in Kermora's power ring.

All priests who follow Kermora can still use divine spells after being authorized by Kermora, just like before.

What surprised Kermora was that only one tenth of the believers made it clear that they wanted to avenge the gods they once believed in.

——Use their graceless bodies, use this mortal body to avenge Roland.

The irony is that this power ring that was originally used to connect the will of the God of Contract and Kermora, this power ring that Roland used as an anchor to track the location of Ra, has now become the only evidence that the God of Contract once existed.

In addition, a major event that only Roland knew happened——

After the fall of Ra, the priesthood of the contract was naturally vacated.

As a result, the covenanter who returned to the world of Farnes soon reassigned the priesthood of the contract to his own name.Having regained its most essential power, it directly went through the initial adaptation period of the Eternal Sleeping Instructor, and directly recovered the power of the saint without any disturbance.

On the second day of Miracle Day, when most people had no idea what happened, the Great Reckoning began silently.

Under the quick operation of the covenanter, the gods fell one by one.

He quickly processed all kinds of reports that had been piled up for thousands of years, reorganized the deviated laws, and conducted a preliminary review of all the gods, directly freezing all the functions of the dereliction of duty or exceeding the authority of the gods, and knocking them down into mortals.

This is the essence of the power of the covenanter.He is responsible for passing various agreements—for example, the advanced permission to break through the racial ceiling restricted by Karaba, and the permission obtained when the Hall of Truth is advanced to the highest spire, all of which are within the scope of the Covenanter's ability.

It can be said that what He controls is the power system of this world.

The most representative of his pastors are the shining hand who sent Roland into this world, and the two professions of the light of the sky.The former can ignore the level and step difference to cause real damage, while the latter can seal the level and attributes, each of which is a concrete manifestation of his power.

The Covenanter is different from the Eye of Orm who hates the Usurper.He is practically neutral to the actions of the gods.

In His view, if you have the ability, it is not impossible to authorize you with the relevant priesthood.The world of Farnes is not big, and it is difficult to cause any trouble in management.

And, this dying world needs these responsible people.

However, if one regards the priesthood as a means of arming oneself, then it is like a mortal bureaucrat being greedy for money, which is an unforgivable behavior for the covenant.And the more powerful the god, the more it will attract the hatred of the covenant.

Among the first batch of gods to be audited, the ones who were judged as dereliction of duty and deprived of their clergy were directly thrown from the sky by the covenant-maker, and they were Alzax, the Lord of Violence, and N'Zoth, the God of Truth and Terror.

The direct effect of this incident is that the forces of violence and terror are out of control.

Starting from the middle area between Bansa and Karal, violence and terror spread at a speed more terrifying than the plague, exaggerating Roland's great miracle into a terrifying appearance, and spreading it to Suze and Karal.

At this time, Karal was involved in a new war.

The origin of this war has something to do with the "Liberator" Marquis Saya who completely drove the old druid forces from Karal's territory and returned them a clean and free land.

Generally speaking, she herself is another miracle of Roland - she claims that her army actually has only one person, and that person is Roland's messenger to her.Therefore, the Karal people who gained freedom with the help of Roland's power should believe in Roland.

But the Grand Duke disagreed.

After finally taking back the freedom of belief from the druid, how could he be willing to give it to others?

What's more, he couldn't trust those pastors in the first place.And the opinion of the Grand Duke is also the opinion of the majority of Karal people.

Therefore, the Marquise declared war on the Archduke without hesitation.

She swears that she will use only one person in this war——
