Spellcasting Heavens

Incredible! Basic order has been restored here.

Walking on the slightly chaotic streets of the city, Zhang Cheng observed the reactions of the surrounding pedestrians with great interest, especially those with extremely satisfied smiles on their faces.

There is no doubt that a month and a half has passed since the Dark Church launched an armed riot and declared the establishment of a **** country.

As the first place to be forcibly occupied, the city's residents more or less accepted the new rulers, as well as new rules, laws, and systems.

The most important thing is that many people voluntarily join the church and become believers of the God of Darkness in order to pay less taxes.

Suddenly, a large number of people wearing amulets and holy symbols could be seen. Among them were old people over 60 years old and teenagers. Occasionally, they would gather together to discuss the so-called doctrine.

In such a strong religious atmosphere, people's spiritual world was greatly satisfied, and they even ignored the dangerous situation they had to face, as if nothing in the world could stop the expansion of the church, and eventually became the only faith on this continent.

But in Zhang Cheng's eyes, this is a typical herd mentality in social psychology.

In order to prevent being isolated and excluded from the circle, every member of society will do their best to cater to the mainstream voice, even if they know that it is wrong.

There are also some idiots who actually start to hypnotize themselves in the process of catering to them, and over time even they themselves believe it.

Just as he was walking along the street, feeling the ubiquitous power of faith, a man wearing a badge that symbolized his identity suddenly blocked his way.

Stop! Who are you? Why have I never seen you before? The man frowned and asked loudly.

You must know that since the city was occupied by the church, neighboring countries and other cities immediately adopted an economic blockade in order to suppress this dangerous organization, ordering businessmen in their own countries not to do business in areas occupied by the church, let alone to sell items such as salt and grain. Weapons, metals, armor and other strategic materials were transported in, and the number of merchants and travelers suddenly shrunk to single digits, with few new faces seen.

To put it simply, it is to use economic blockade to minimize the war potential of the Dark Church. If possible, it is best to put food in short supply.

Unfortunately, this sinister plan obviously failed to have the desired effect.

After all, in this relatively backward world, except for a few very large urban agglomerations, most small and medium-sized cities rely on the farmland in their surrounding areas to support citizens who are not engaged in agricultural activities. Otherwise, the losses caused by transportation alone would be a huge sum. money.

Since the food supply system was relatively independent, the effects of the economic blockade were limited to shortages of cloth, iron products, and some special tools, and did not have a great impact on ordinary people's lives.

Huh? Are you asking me? Zhang Cheng stopped and raised his head to look at the other person with interest.

That's right! It's you! Answer my question, where are you from, and what is your purpose in coming to this city? The man subconsciously put his hand on the hilt of his sword, assuming a threatening attack posture.

You don't need to ask to know that he probably regards Zhang Cheng as a spy to gather information or to secretly carry out sabotage.

Haha, you are very wary, thinking that I will do something detrimental to the church, right? Zhang Cheng was not only not angry, but couldn't help but laugh.

The feeling was almost like a giant dragon encountering a puppy barking at him.

It feels far more interesting than offensive.

Damn it! You are indeed a spy sent by the enemy! The man seemed a little angry and immediately blew the whistle used to send a warning.

When the piercing screams echoed in the streets, it didn't take long for more than twenty men wearing the same badges to rush over with weapons in hand.

Without saying a word, they sealed the entire alley completely, leaving no room for anyone to enter or exit.

After all this was done, the leader asked breathlessly: What happened?

Captain! I found a spy sent by the enemy! The man replied quickly, pointing at Zhang Cheng, who was standing motionless.

Spy?! The leader was stunned for a moment, and then asked in a noncommittal tone: What about the evidence? You have to have evidence to say he is a spy, right? The church is not those nobles who wantonly trample on laws and rules. We You must not convict someone casually before you have evidence.

I...I have no evidence. The man shook his head helplessly, but immediately defended: But he just admitted that he wanted to be detrimental to the church.

Hey! Don't frame him randomly. I've never said anything like this. Zhang Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly and bluntly interrupted the other party's attempt to forcibly convict him.

You must know that he has always been framed and plotted by others, but today it was the first time in history that he was plotted by an unknown little person.

The man obviously had no idea how dangerous this seemingly harmless young man in front of him was.

Unwilling to fail, he rolled his eyes and immediately said: Captain, he is not a local, but an outsider. Think about it, how many outsiders we have captured alive in recent times are hostile nobles Sent by the lord? For the great God of Darkness, we must protect this city and the believers living in it. Sometimes we can make a little change and capture him for interrogation first. If he is really not a spy, then release him. Is it better?

Well... what you said seems to make sense. Sir, please come with us first. I promise that as long as you explain everything you need to explain clearly, you will be free soon. The captain's men undoubtedly accepted his subordinates' suggestions;

In any case, the most important thing is to ensure the safety and stability of the city first.

As long as the city is stable, more and more people will believe in the God of Darkness, and the church will grow rapidly, forming an irresistible storm.

As for whether this will offend a strange traveler, that doesn't matter at all.

In the face of religion, personal will is always the most insignificant thing. Some fanatics will be hostile to all groups that have different beliefs from their own and vow to kill them all.

Want to arrest me? Sorry, I'm afraid you don't have such ability yet. Forget it, for the sake of that woman doing her best to serve me, I won't argue with you idiots for now.

The words just fell!

Zhang Cheng suddenly sprayed out a large amount of crystal powder from his palm!

In less than a second, everyone who had come into contact with the crystal powder couldn't help but open their mouths and yawn non-stop. In less than half a minute, they fell to the ground with a plop and fell asleep.

Hmph! Fooled idiots, I hope you will not choose to commit suicide on the day when your faith collapses.

Glancing at the scattered believers in deep sleep on the ground, he curled his lips in disdain and strode towards the building with the huge statue standing there.
