Through inquiring, I learned that the temple of the Natural Church in the Lower Lake District was expanded after the establishment of the Church of Light diocese.
The locals were unwilling to talk. Wang Qi speculated that it was most likely a check and balance by the Lei Ming Kingdom officials.
When they approached the Temple of Nature Church, Wang Qi and his party were pulled into a sermon. They listened patiently for a while and felt that it didn't make sense.
The Church of Nature teaches that humans should not demand too much from nature. Although Wang Qi believes that the impact of humans on nature is nothing more than a trivial matter in natural evolution, he also affirms that there is nothing wrong with the concept of maintaining and improving existing environmental conditions. Regardless of the temperature and humidity, at least the air quality can be guaranteed. .
But some of the arguments given by the Church of Nature are hard to agree with, such as "Demons become part of nature after integrating into the natural environment. They should abandon the life-and-death attitude and try to coexist."
Wang Qi even asked more: "How to achieve it?"
As a result, the other party said, "The power of nature will help us," which made people frown.
There are quite a few people with demon blood in the exile, and they seem to be able to coexist, but the Phoenix Kingdom basically implements a strategy of exterminating the demons.
It's not a matter of hatred. In Wang Qi's view, there is a contradiction: if the demons want to kill people, of course they must kill the demons first to avoid killing their own people. This is the same as if Fatel wanted to attack the Phoenix Kingdom and was killed at the border. Same reason.
In addition, the concept of "demon" is too broad. If the little devil's mental state is thrown into the wild environment, it can only be regarded as an invasive wild animal with a great threat and high survival advantage. However, there are many kinds of demons. As a group, they have the ability to use these scattered low-level demons to form the power to destroy the area.
Therefore, it is impossible to "coexist" in a broad sense without having a specific solution.
Listening to the preacher, who was not sure whether he was a priest, Wang Qi felt like he was out of time and space, as if he had returned to the era when radical environmentalists were running all over the place.
They have ideas and goals, but they have no method. They just rely on their words. It seems that everyone supports their ideas and things get done naturally.
The preacher was very good at talking, but with Wang Qi's cultivation, he couldn't stand it at the end. He raised his finger and pointed at the embroidery on his collar: "The ideas of the Natural Church are too far away from our Lord, and it is really difficult to agree with them. You should find someone else." Let’s try it.”
The preacher frowned, showing signs of being angry, but after looking at Akeem who looked like an iron can, he calmed down, rolled up his sleeves and went to find someone else.
After getting rid of the enthusiastic preacher, Wang Qi and his party found a roadside stall that seemed to be doing okay business, had some snacks, and visited various institutions of the Bright Church.
First find a random church to show off, and then ask the two guarantors to find suitable people to inquire about the information.
In the mainland of Thunder Kingdom, in addition to the Natural Church, there is also the Four Seasons Goddess Worship. The latter had met the two guarantors on the road. Its believers mainly "want to believe in something" and are not able to accept the rigid rules of the three major churches. people.
[The problem of slow update of new chapters can be solved by
Just know the ability.
In this diocese, excluding orphanages, the church has three permanent relief programs, targeting the ordinary poor, the needy among believers, and those who have experienced family upheaval among believers.
For the first two, the food distributed is the same. It is porridge made from local large-grained rice, plus a pickle burrito. The believers are given a special treatment: they can also get a piece of food when worshiping in the large chapel.
The food in the cathedral is called Holy Communion. It is not relief food. It contains a certain amount of meat. Anyone who participates in the service can eat it. However, there will be a religious threshold to enter the door. And if you eat Holy Communion, unless your pocket is empty, it will be more or less necessary. Donate some.
For the third category, believers who suddenly cannot afford to eat due to family changes, another mechanism is used, that is, in the form of work-for-relief, the church provides a job that ensures an income level near the average line. Unfortunately, I didn’t find out the specific type of job and its income level.
Wang Qi thought for a moment: "Why don't we just go to the chapel and ask?"
Li Xiang rolled his eyes at him, then suddenly cut off the language knowledge effect and spoke in Qin language: "Be careful, all the noodle monsters will be killed."
Wang Qi smiled and didn't think that small talk would cause conflicts.
However, the specific details of the relief expenditure involve the internal financial system of the Bright Church. If you directly ask the clergy, you will inevitably be rejected.
"Then just take a look."
…
When Wang Qi and his party were wandering around below, two pairs of eyes were following them from a window in the living area of the cathedral.
"Isn't this the group riding the bear? What? Found something suspicious?"
Another person shook his head: "There is no doubt at all."
"Then why are you staring? Do you want to get to know each other?"
"There is no doubt at all. Isn't it strange?"
"...I'm sick, I'm going to eat."
There was a person left by the window. It was the divine warrior that Wang Qi and his team met when they first arrived, the deputy captain of the Black Light Team, the guy who called himself "Rhodes" but was actually called Ellison.
The situation in the abnormal area changed quickly. After this group of strange and unsuspecting people passed by, adventurers from the exile appeared.
It stands to reason that these people in the penal colony are all aliens and should be dealt with. However, the Pope has issued an order that members of the church cannot directly attack groups of people in the penal colony... Those who want to be alone can decide according to the situation. ….
Everyone understands that the church cannot make enemies on both sides during special times, but if this happens, things ahead will be difficult to handle.
If there were only a few dozen, three squads of divine warriors could just say "no passage". With the average combat power of the divine warriors, no one's imperial guard would dare to fart.
But in the next few days, too many people gathered, and the risk of direct conflict increased.
We have no choice but to temporarily lift the eastward blockade and release people to the east.
Not even two days had passed since the incident, when the demons entered the scene.
This time, because there were no human survivors in the abnormal area, the entry process of the demons was clearly observed, and it was basically confirmed that the demons opened a portal near the entrance to the exile.
This information is very important. Maybe next time we can try to deploy in advance on the side of the exile to try to block the invasion channels of the demon ground forces.
It was not their turn to talk about what to do specifically. After getting the necessary information, seeing the continuous influx of demons, the relevant personnel and materials of Shanggang City packed up and ran away.
The teleportation still doesn't work.
The other end of the Shangang Portal is in the Kaitila Diocese in St. Anthony. It is the closest diocese to Sun City. There are no less than twenty teams of permanent and mobile divine warriors in it. And the portal is limited in traffic, and only a hundred people can pass through it in a day. It is best if the demons dare to go inside. If you can catch a few intermediate or high-level demons with high intelligence, you can get a lot of information.
Because the Black Light Team was helpless in the Bishop of Kaitila, the team members discussed taking on another mission and came to Xiahu Parish to garrison, a few days earlier than the Bear Riders.
Divine warriors cannot interfere with religious affairs, and their other powers are equivalent to those of bishops.
I met the real owner today, Ellison again
I became suspicious, and after thinking about it, I decided to ask a few people to check it out. If someone from above were to pursue me one day, I could come up with something to prove my innocence. .
