Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

"You're saying that because there was a dispute between the Noxians and the Titan's followers in Uzeris, the sale of strategic materials was temporarily banned here." Lux blinked twice and said with some surprise. , "How much tax revenue will be lost by then, and the order of the Titan believers will make up for it to the governor?"

"That's it!" The owner of the cattle shop seemed to be quite dissatisfied with those colleagues who had converted to the faith of the giant god. Seeing that Lux understood what he meant, he nodded with a smile, "In addition to the free money and regular money, those guys have no money this time. I got a lot of blood!"

"Exemption money and regular money... From what you're saying, there are extra taxes for these Titan believers?" Lux was quite surprised. "If we have to pay extra money, is there anyone willing to believe in the Titan?"

"It doesn't matter that they have to pay, but the money is not free at all!" Hearing this, the boss licked his lips with envy, and curled his lips with a bit of disdain, "The military exemption money will save them from having to perform military service. , doing corvee labor, the regular money is considered as working capital for mutual aid. With these two amounts of money, plus the usual time to listen to the lectures when I have nothing to do, a group of outsiders have hooked up together, a group of bastards... …”

It seemed that he was gloating about his misfortune, and he seemed to have been grudged for a long time. Anyway, the owner of the cattle shop, who had no business now, had nothing to do, so he simply started chatting with Lux at the door.

Through his narration, Lux gained a new understanding of the Shurima people's "not pious, but absolutely true" belief in the giant god, and even Kalya was stunned by it.

This "giant faith" is completely different from the giant faith that Kalya knows.

You must know that during the Shurima Empire, those who believed in the Titans were generally dignitaries who were not qualified to ascend. Belief in the Titans can truly extend life. In addition, the ascension ceremony is related to the Titans, so even if Seta Both Ka and Kalya have headaches about the belief in giant gods, but they still can't stop it.

Since the ascension ceremony borrowed the power of the giant gods, it will be difficult to really kick it away after the empire rises. For the Shurima Empire, this is the price.

But now, the old king Xietang Qianyan has flown into the homes of ordinary people.

After the collapse of the empire and the Darkin War, the governors of various places who were once the main force in the faith of the Titan began to raise the banner of orthodox Shurima one by one for their own rule; while the civilians who were once completely indifferent to the faith, But they took the initiative to cover up non-governmental mutual aid organizations with the cloak of giant god faith...

When he heard that Western Shurima was full of believers who converted to the Titans, Kalya thought that the power of the Titans had returned, but as the boss told him, he was finally shocked to discover that these "Titan beliefs" were different from what he knew. The formal "giant god belief" of the Eight Classics is not the same thing at all.

For these believers, doctrines and the like are actually not important, nor is it important what the difference is between protoss and giant gods, and whether they are gods or celestial beings.

Most cults that believe in giant gods essentially just worship certain powers of nature.

They worshiped the sun, the moon, and the stars... and then metaphysics and nature naturally combined some similar beautiful qualities to form the belief in giant gods that is now blooming everywhere.

Unlike the Rakkor people who live in Mount Targon and are really willing to shed their lives and blood for the reputation of their gods, these followers of the Titan Cult in Shurima have little to do with the real Titan spirits. For them, the cult , more like a spiritual destination and a grassroots autonomous organization.

If you have to use a more precise term, it might be more reliable to call them "Earth Giant God Faith".

The giant god is just an excuse - the most important thing is to use the giant god as an excuse to organize everyone together.

For these believers who converted to the "Earth Giant God Faith", the Giant God was the Heavenly Father and Brother Heavenly Brother in Hong Xiuquan's words - but these believers did not rebel under this banner, but formed a gang-like grassroots under this name. The mutual aid association is used to fight against the authority of "Shurima Orthodoxy" in the hands of the city lords or governors of various cities.

After figuring this out, not to mention Lux, even Kalya was dumbfounded.

He never dreamed that after the collapse of the Shurima Empire, the faith of the Titans would develop in such a "down-to-earth" way.

However, after a moment of confusion, Kalya quickly realized the seriousness of the problem.

According to the boss, these "Tulu God believers" not only have their own organizations, but also establish their own religious schools, religious shrines, and religious standards. These believers come from foreign lands and constantly "conquer cities and territories. Judging from the situation of "expanding power", they are doing quite well!

If this is the case...even if these religious orders have nothing to do with the real Titan God, if one day the Titan Star Spirit really comes to visit these religious groups, wouldn't these religious groups instantly become part of the True Titan God Order?

Realizing this, Karja became anxious at the time. Although he was not interested in the orthodox Shurimanism that the city lords and governors of various cities hypocritically insisted on, no matter how you looked at it, it was this kind of grassroots and dynamic The belief in earth giant gods is even more threatening.

Once they collectively transform, I am afraid that the giant gods will really establish a kingdom of heaven on earth that they expected but never appeared due to the resistance of Kalya and Setaka!

This is not a good thing - look at the Rakkor people, they are the best role models. The Rakkor people who dedicated everything to the giant god are simply the most standard leeks of faith. They have been fighting with " Fighting "the enemy of God", even if he occupies the area with the most favorable natural conditions in Shurima, life has always been miserable.

Although Kalya seems to be "all in the past" on the surface, he will still feel worried when it comes to the future of Shurima.

Therefore, after Lux ended her chat with the boss, Karya immediately urged her to visit the community where the Titans believe and learn about the situation there.

"Would this also help with climbing Mount Targon?"

"It may not be helpful for climbing Mount Targon, but it can at least help you understand Titan."

"But you said their belief has nothing to do with the giant gods?"

"If they merge, it will be really troublesome!"

……………………

At Kalya's urging, Lux and Ino took Scarash, bid farewell to the idle boss, and rushed to a nearby community that believed in the earth giant god without stopping.

Unlike Kalya's expectation, which was filled with splendid religious buildings, this area looked particularly ordinary.

Except for a "chapel" in the center that looks more like a lecture theater, the rest of this huge community looks exactly like an ordinary residential area - and it is a residential area with the characteristics of the Shurima Empire!

When Lux and Ino arrived here, it happened to be the end of school time. Many children rushed out of the school with cheers and chased each other towards their homes. They didn't seem to have received military training. Carrying a small wooden box with me.

One child seemed to be walking too hastily and accidentally fell to the ground. The box in his hand was thrown open, and various small tools and books inside were scattered on the floor.

Lux and Ino approached carefully, and were surprised to find that from the various items in this small box, it seemed that the main content of these children's studies in religious schools was actually accounting, handicrafts, reading and geography!

Except for a pamphlet of "Praise to the Sun", there seemed to be no content related to the belief in the Titans in the small wooden box that the child carried - and according to Kalya's understanding of the Sun Star Spirit, if according to the Sun Cult The group's demands, even this pamphlet "Praise to the Sun", are definitely heretical.

Now Kalya was really interested.

"Do you remember what the boss said just now?" He encouraged Lux, "He said that these earth giant gods are very happy to preach - maybe we can go to their chapel to have a look?"

"But when we just passed by, it seemed to be locked." Lux was stunned for a moment, "And what about this Scarash?"

"Then find a cattle shop that believes in the Earth Titan God, and then go and talk to them." Kalya chuckled, "I am very interested in this wonderful 'Cult of the Titan God' now, and I have noticed something about them. Subtle and extremely familiar.”

"familiar?"

"Yes, but the specific situation will not be known until follow-up."

"Well, since you said so, Ino and I will take the opportunity to rest."

In this way, Lux and Ino returned to the cattle market, and then chose a cattle shop elsewhere with a sun emblem on the door.

Coincidentally, the kid in this family was the kid who fell on the ground after school. Just when Lacus asked if there were any camels for sale, the kid rushed back dirty and said, Running back waved a test paper.

"I passed the spellcasting test! I passed the spellcasting test!"

The owner of the livestock farm strode out happily. After discovering that there was a customer, he touched his son's head, called his wife back, and then finally looked at Lux.

"Miss, are you here to buy or sell livestock?"

"I want to buy two camels."

"That's really unfortunate. Our camel trading in Bu Mang has been closed recently."

"The market is closed?" Lux blinked, pretending to be confused, and asked knowingly, "What's going on?"

"The despicable Noxians want us to fight for their ambitions." Hearing this, the boss showed an expression of dissatisfaction and disdain, "We have all paid our exemption money, and they still want to take us away." To be sent to the battlefield to fight for their ambitions is truly wishful thinking.”

"But...there are no Noxians here!"

"They are the Noxians from Uzeris." The boss shook his head, "We are in solidarity with our compatriots."

"So, Bu Mang, a thousand miles away, stopped the camel market?"

"That's right!" The boss put on a proud look, "The Pope said that this involves the issue of whether our future exemption money will be counted, and those bastards must be made aware of the unity of our religious order! "

"Free money?"

"You don't even know about the exemption money?" Seeing Lax's curious expression, the other party instantly became interested, "This is the characteristic of our Sun God Religion. As long as it is held in the presence of the Pope and the Governor at the beginning of every spring, Witness this, if you pay enough for the exemption, you don’t have to perform military service for the city lord and governor!”

"Doesn't that mean we don't have to go to war?!" Lux showed a look of surprise at the right time, "Can this still be possible?"

"Of course!" Satisfied with Lux's performance, the boss also started chatting. While he began to talk about his understanding of his own Sun God Cult, he also pulled out a simple printed small book from under the counter. Booklet, handed it to Lux, "Praise the sun, as long as you join our Sun God Cult, you will have someone to rely on when you are young, and someone to support you when you are old..."

"Have nothing to rely on?"

"I'm going to school in a while to sign up that bastard of mine for a mage training class!" The boss tried hard to suppress the excitement on his face, but he still accidentally exposed his eight teeth. "You can come with me to have a look, Sun God The teachers in the school where I teach are all highly respected seniors, and our community does not have those criminal gangsters outside..."

"So you have something to support your old age?"

"It's a church nursing home!" When the topic came up, the boss finally calmed down a bit, "Although it's not as good as his own children, but there are fire workers to take care of him, at least he won't die on the bedside without anyone knowing, and there are so many elderly people that we can't help each other. It can relieve boredom..."

"Hey, are you a sect that believes in giant gods?" Lux nodded and asked, "I have met the Rakkor before, but you seem to be completely different from them?"

"We are not Rakor people!" When the boss heard this, he frowned and showed a look of disgust. "The Rakor people are God's slaves. We are different. We are God's chosen people - they serve God. Yes, but God serves us!”

God is here to serve us!

After hearing these words, Lux barely maintained her curiosity on the surface, but in fact, her whole body was completely numb.

You know, although Demacia is a royal country, with the existence of the Illuminati, even the king cannot say such words as "God serves us".

A person as virtuous and respected as Jarvan III dared to say these words in public one day, and the next day the Illuminati dared to directly raise troops and establish a new emperor.

And in Bumang, in a family that believes in the "Sun God Cult", the male host actually said directly and carelessly that "the gods serve us", and in his words he was full of praise for the extremely devout believers of the gods of the Rakor people. Contempt...

This is simply unimaginable.

Lux was confused, and so was Ino.

But at the same time, Kalya couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing.

"Quick, Lax, ask him who the first pope of the Sun God Cult was." Kalya urged while laughing out of breath, "Is it Varieva?"

Lux, who was in a dazed state, subconsciously asked this question.

"Huh?" Hearing Lux's question, the boss raised his eyebrows strangely, "How do you know the name of our first pope?"

Kalya’s Little Class·Butterfly Wings:

Although the Shurima empire that Kalya once worked hard to build was eventually submerged in the sand, this does not mean that all his efforts were in vain - in fact, because of Kalya, the current Shurima empire In fact, it is a quite "surprising" country.
