The Origin of Arcane

The pilgrimage of thousands of miles is a great burden on the body and financial resources.

Not everyone can afford it, but if you don't respond to the call of the Holy See, you will be questioned about your beliefs, and you will eventually fall into a kind of self-doubt.

Now with Darnell's Protestantism, which was born out of the Holy See, as a belief theory support, he can naturally give up the pilgrimage with peace of mind.

People are often willing to believe in things that are beneficial to them. This is a human weakness shared by most people.

Of course, the Holy See cannot sit back and watch this situation spread.

If this happened under normal circumstances, they would have taken action by force, dispatching the sword of Saint Ether and the knights of the Holy See to send those who spread fallacies to the stake in public.

However, the tense relationship with the Witches' Secret Council held back most of their force, and they could not mobilize the complete Holy See Knights. If they only sent the sword of Saint Ether, which came and went rarely, it would not be effective at all.

With the help of the leader of the Yongye army, after Darnell's Protestantism took action, there was an overwhelming public opinion offensive.

Protestant leaflets and new Bibles are like no money, as long as you come to listen to the sermon, they will be distributed in unlimited quantities and free of charge.

Free in the true sense, the kind that doesn’t even require donations. To quote a sentence in the New Bible, the true God does not need these extraneous things.

Although many services of the Holy See are under the banner of free, there are a lot of fundraising in disguise, and churches in different places are different and full of tricks.

The pastors of some churches with a rotten interior even equated the piety of the congregants with the amount of donations.

Of course, it is impossible for the True God to enjoy the various materials raised by the fundraiser, and he must be pocketed by those pastors.

The decay and unbearableness of the past made Darnell's Protestantism stand out.

In particular, this scene of distributing Bibles in large quantities is truly unprecedented.

In the Holy See, it is normal for a diocese to have only a few handwritten Bibles that have been handed down for an unknown number of years.

Those believers cherish it like a treasure and don't easily show it to others. Their sermons rely more on word of mouth.

Whether copying the Bible by hand or preaching orally, there is the same problem.

That is, there are too many personal understandings and personal concepts mixed in it.

The same sentence has changed even if it is passed on!

Not to mention the same idea.

This is especially evident in the widely spread Holy See of Saint Ether.

All kinds of teachings are varied, good and bad.

Once the bishops of various dioceses gather together to discuss the doctrine, they are often arguing red-faced and fighting with their sleeves rolled up, which is not particularly rare.

This is also a key point of Darnell's Protestant reform. He spent a lot of effort to collect all the more representative teachings, cross-reference them, eliminate a lot of private ideas and opinions, and optimize and organize them.

The spread of tens of thousands of new Bibles printed in one mold will have a greater impact on the teachings of the Holy See than any words.

Those literate believers, when reading the new Bible, will naturally combine their own experiences to form their own subjective understanding.

This subjective understanding is more difficult to reverse than pious belief.

Moreover, the birthplace of Darnell's Protestantism is the princess fiefdom and the Countess of Angelberina, where the official forces are on the side of Protestantism.

The force of the Holy See is severely restricted here.

It was originally due to the sibling friendship between Princess Sophie Leah and King Laurie.

On the side of the princess's fiefdom, Darnell's Protestantism only showed acquiescence and backed support, but she has not publicly expressed her position, completely tearing her face.

But as the new royal court presses closer and closer to the Gemini Peninsula, this kind of sister-brother relationship becomes more and more fragile. When the benefits are large enough, it is almost like paper.

Because anyone with a discerning eye could see that, if there were no accidents, the Witch Secret Society would not be able to withstand the Wang Ting's offensive.

The desire of the new royal family, a community of interests, will never be satisfied by swallowing the Gemini Peninsula. On the contrary, their desire to expand will become stronger by then.

The princess fief and countess will be their next targets, followed by the Eternal Night Army.

As long as their military is not severely damaged, their pace of expansion will not stop.

It is not Princess Sophilia's character to wait for the enemy to attack and then passively defend.

After this trip arrived at Iron Castle, the capital of the princess's fiefdom, she would stand for Darnell's Protestantism and fully implement it in her own fiefdom to replace the Holy See.

...

Angel Bella's Countess.

Angel Bella City.

In the Countess's mansion, guests gathered and exchanged cups of wine, welcoming the arrival of Lord Xiao En, Mrs. Sophilia and Miss Anne.

The relationship between forces is constantly changing as the strength of both parties changes.

When the princess' fiefdom, the countess' land, and the leader of the Eternal Night Army were separated.

The Countess can also act as a link and buffer between the two, barely maintaining independence.

When the supreme rulers of the two, Sean and Sophie Liya, combined, the princess fiefdom and the leader of the Eternal Night Army merged into one.

The situation of the Countess immediately became awkward, becoming an obstacle between the two territories.

Angel Bena is a smart person, knowing that without the support of the leader of the Eternal Night Army, Grand Duke Patraim will fight her without hesitation.

In particular, Grand Duke Patram had an affair with the royal family and the Holy See. After forming the new royal family, the Countess completely turned to the Eternal Night Army Commander. Although there was no name of belonging between the two parties, there was a reality of belonging.

The foreign policy of Yong Ye's military leaders followed suit.

Especially in Darnell's Protestant promotion, Angie Bella's Red Cross Hospital played an extraordinary role.

In this day and age, gods and doctors are inseparable, because people are more vulnerable when they are sick, and they need more external support, both physically and mentally.

In the Countess, Sean and the others also received an unexpected visitor—Selena, the witch's secret messenger.

It has been more than a month since Selena arrived in the Countess, and she wanted to meet Sean and Sophia through Angel Bena's introduction.

It's just that at that time, Sean and Sophie Liya were on patrol, and their whereabouts were uncertain.

Selena can only stay here temporarily.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while.

The witch Selena couldn't bear it any longer, and went straight to the point: I have brought a letter written by President Martina here, please read it, Your Highness.

Sophilia took the letter in her hand, read it carefully, and then said to Selina gently: I already know the meaning of President Martina, but unfortunately, I can't do anything about the request of the president. I am no longer the regent of the royal family, and the royal family is no longer the royal family that it used to be, and I have no way to influence any of their decisions.

Your Highness is too humble. Although Your Highness has stepped down from the position of Regent, you have served as Regent for many years, and your reputation is still alive, especially the friendship with King Laurie, which is even more famous all over the world. Although you are named siblings, you are better than mother and son. King Rui has always respected you very much, as long as you send a handwritten letter, I believe His Majesty the King will definitely seriously consider the matter of using troops on the Gemini Peninsula. Selina is not such a person who gives up easily, and encourages the three-inch peninsula Tongue lobby said.

It's just that she didn't mention King Laurie, but when she mentioned him, Princess Sophilia became very angry. Although she didn't show it to her face, her face was still a little cold and she said: Miss Selina is really tall. Look at me, this kind of military affairs, even if I am still the regent, I can't decide it with one word, how can it be changed because of a letter?

As smart as Miss Selina, you don't know that the royal family is not entirely in charge of the swordsmanship this time, and the Holy See also plays a role that cannot be ignored, right?

Your Highness... Selina wanted to say something else.

Sophilia waved her hand and was forcibly interrupted, I'm sorry, I'm tired. I will write to President Martina myself in another day to explain the matter in detail.

Then I won't disturb His Highness's rest. Selina took the initiative to stand up and say goodbye.

Angel Bena, who was on the side, got up and sent Selena out of the door, and said with a blank face: I have already done what the teacher asked me to do, and the rest is your business.

You are also from a secret society, don't you care about the life and death of the secret society at all? The fall of the Gemini Peninsula, you will also lose a big pillar. Selina's words revealed deep dissatisfaction.

She could feel that Angel Bena was very indifferent to the matter of the witch secret meeting asking Princess Sophilia for help, and she seemed to be perfunctory from beginning to end.

Pillar? Angel Bena couldn't help but sneer, Anything, you have to pay to get rewarded. I have paid back ten times or a hundred times to the secret meeting. I have a clear conscience for what they gave me back then. I advise you not to It's a waste of effort, unless the broken line of defense falls and the Odin orcs come in, otherwise no one can change the fate of the Twin Peninsula.

You have a clear conscience, I hope you won't regret what you said today. Selena angrily shook her hands and left.

I want to speak harshly, and I'll wait until you get through this first. Countess Angelberina wrinkled her nose, not paying attention to the other party's threat at all.

The witches' secret society is completely in a hurry and goes to the doctor randomly, and wants to try any tricks.

An external force like Sophilia might still be useful before King Laurie made up his mind.

Now that Wang Ting's new army has completed its reorganization, it has set up a posture outside the Gemini Peninsula, with its swords out of its sheaths, pressing forward step by step.

How could it be possible to change because of the opinions of one or two people?

After a fierce battle, Wang Ting's new army suffered a big setback, and the two sides had the hope of sitting down and talking again.

Up to now, the Witches' Secret Society has not had such awareness, so naturally they will be at a disadvantage everywhere.

Just as the eyes of the world were all focused on the battle between the New Royal Court and the Witch's Secret Council, there was a shocking news from the Broken Vessel Defense Line—the fall of Broken Blood Fortress.

How can it be?

When Xiao En, the supreme ruler of the Eternal Night Army, heard the news, he spit out a mouthful of tea.

How can it be?

When Sophilia heard the news, the punishment strip in her hand lost control and slammed heavily on Little Annie's pink butt. A purple blood mark swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Little Annie, who was usually very tough and didn't cry or fuss no matter how hard she beat her, was also yelped.

How can it be?

When Pope St. George of the Holy See of St. Ether heard the news, the holy power in his body exploded out of control. It seemed that countless voices were shouting at the same time. The people around were rushed away by the huge force on the spot, and blood ran wildly.

How can it be?

When King Laurie of the Lancelot royal family heard the news, he jumped up from the throne on the spot, and then sat back down pale.

How can it be?

When Martina, the president of the Witches' Secret Society, heard the news, she screamed in shock, and then couldn't help but let out three wild laughs, mixed with grief and joy.

How can it be?

This was the first reaction of those who knew something about the situation on the Broken Vessel Line when they got the news.

Since the Duanmai defense line cooperated with the Yong Ye army leader and started border trade, it has really made a fortune, and its finances have never been richer.

Even in the later period, the Theodin Empire adopted targeted policies. Although it had a certain impact on the border trade, the Broken Vein Line of Defense quickly found a new way out, especially the rise of the Undead Empire, which caused a lot of damage to the Theodin Empire. After the severe shock, the slave trade began to flourish again.

The number of Odin orc slaves that the New Royal Court takes over from the Broken Vein line of defense every year is no less than 100,000, and last year it even surged to 200,000.

This kind of thing is diametrically opposed.

The strength of the enemy is getting weaker, but the strength of the Broken Vessel Defense Line itself is constantly increasing.

At the beginning, the West Odin Empire carried the monstrous power to destroy the East Odin Empire, and came to attack the Duanmai defense line, and they were all hit with blood.

Not to mention that this time the Theodin Empire's internal and external troubles have weakened to an extreme. The army of the Theodin Empire now besieging the broken line of defense is only five or six hundred thousand, and many of them are old, weak, sick and disabled.

No one pays too much attention here at all, because they believe that it only needs to be delayed for a year and a half.

The severe food crisis within the Theodin Empire would cause them to collapse without a fight.

According to Grand Duke Cedric's temper, he will definitely launch a counterattack, lead the blood-broken blood cavalry, rush into the Odin grassland, burn, kill and loot to his heart's content, completely trample the Theodin Empire to pieces, and completely solve the problem of worship. The confidant of the Lun Alliance these years.

Suddenly there is diametrically opposite news, how can people believe it?

Especially the Yong Ye army leader who knows more about the strength of the Duanmai defense line.

Although the Broken Pulse Line of Defense is not directly bordering the Yongye Army Leader, it is also closely related to their future development. Coupled with Sophilia's relationship, the Yongye Army Leader has a particularly generous policy towards them in all aspects.

Not only enchanting equipment, black powder kegs, blade throwing vehicles, new war horses and other eliminated technologies are supplied to the Broken Pulse defense line in large quantities.

Techniques such as combat skills are also sold as appropriate. Earning money is only one aspect, and the main purpose is to enhance the combat effectiveness of the broken pulse defense line.

Combat skills, for warlocks, are separated by a layer of window paper. Once discovered, it is very easy to pierce. The rest is nothing more than time and the question of whether to form a system.

These things will greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the broken pulse defense line.
