I was a priest in the city-state era

Chapter 468 The Amorites spurned Haddad

Belief is more important than life——

Just look at the future 600 years later, whether the state religion in Greece is the native Greek polytheism, or the church of the foreign god Almighty God—you can see that the answer to this question is beyond doubt.

Even the beliefs passed down from ancestors are not as important as one's own life.

Naqusse is a young Ebola boy in Aleppo.

In the past, under the rule of the Amorites, these Ebola people could only become hard-working farmers or shepherds, doing the hardest and most tiring work.

As the ruling class, the Amorites, even the laziest Amorites, can exploit the Ebolas as landlords to enjoy a wealthy life.

Roy led the Athens army to conquer the city of Aleppo, which ushered in earth-shaking changes in the lives of the Ebola people.

After the Athenians fairly distributed the fields between the Amorites and the Ebolas, the Eblans no longer had to endure the exploitation of the Amorites. They could cultivate their own fields, and all the food crops they harvested belonged to them.

In order to become a family of citizens with better treatment, Nacuse took the initiative to apply to become a soldier of the Athenian Empire.

After passing the assessment, Nacuse is now a security officer in charge of street security, and is also the captain of ten team members under him.

At this time, on the streets managed by Naqusai, Naqusai is leading the team to patrol the streets.

Naqusai and his team members walked into a grain store run by an Amorite boss, who rushed forward to greet them.

Although the Amorites used to be the ruling class, they completely treated the Ebolas as slaves.

But now things have turned, and the Ebras have become the accomplices of the Athenians in ruling Aleppo.

Looking at the Amorite boss who walked up to him with a smile on his face, Nacuse joked.

"Boss! Now the goddess of our Ebola is the patron saint of the city of Aleppo. Does your family still worship the three Haddad brothers [Three Zeus brothers] brought by your Amorite ancestors?"

The Amorite boss didn't answer the question immediately, but looked at the family of four brought by Naqusai's team members.

Naqusai's team brought an Amorite family consisting of a middle-aged couple and their two sons and daughters.

Seeing that the eyes of the owner of the grain store were attracted, Naqusai took the initiative to introduce.

"Boss, they are non-citizens who believe in the three brothers of Haddad. We plan to capture them and sell them to slave traders. Their daughter is pretty, and I plan to take them back to have children."

After listening to Naqusai's answer, the owner of the grain shop trembled with fear.

Continuing to worship the three Haddad brothers will become non-citizens without legal protection in the Athens Empire——

Lowe's policy is no joke.

The Ebla people who were enslaved and exploited by the Amorites in the past are proving this with their actions.

Seeing the reaction of the grain store owner, Nacuse urged with a smile.

"Boss, please answer my question quickly! Your family is so rich in food, and my brothers and I are waiting to divide up your family's property! By the way, do you have a beautiful daughter in your family? If your wife is beautiful enough, we will I don't think she's old."

The owner of the grain store hurriedly recovered and said.

"Our family doesn't believe in the three Haddad brothers anymore! They can't even keep their own gods. Our family doesn't believe in such waste gods. Now our family is a citizen protected by the laws of the Athenian Empire. Of course we obey the Athenian Empire. Law, worship the great goddess Istanus."

"Tsk—"

Hearing the answer from the owner of the grain store, Nakusai complained in disappointment.

"You Amorites are really spineless. The beliefs passed down by your ancestors are discarded as soon as they are discarded."

The owner of the grain store rolled his eyes and complained in his heart.

You Ebola people have backbone?

When we Amorites ruled the Ebola people, we kicked the goddess of your Ebola people from the patron saint seat, and you Ebola people also endured it obediently.

Seeing that the owner of the grain store - his compatriots did not insist on their belief in Haddad, the male head of the non-national family said bitterly.

"Captain Naqusai, please show mercy and let us go! I just said something wrong just now, and now our family no longer worships the three Haddad brothers. Haddad is a false god and evil god, we will only spurn them .”

"If you don't want to be a non-citizen - it's not like there's no chance of redemption."

Nakusa said with a smile.

"As long as your family is willing to cast aside the statues of the three Haddad brothers and smear the toilet loot on the statues of the three Haddad brothers, I believe that you have abandoned the beliefs inherited from your ancestors."

Spit on the idols of the three Haddad brothers—

And paint the toilet loot on the statues of the Haddad brothers—

This is a belief passed down by our ancestors for thousands of years!

But if he didn't, his family would become slaves and suffer unimaginable humiliation.

Is it important to defend the beliefs passed down by the ancestors, or is the happy life of one's own family more important?

Just when Nacuse was about to lose his patience, the host gritted his teeth and said.

"We are willing to spit on the statues of the three Haddad brothers, and paint the stolen goods from the toilet on the statues of the three Haddad brothers, which proves that our family has abandoned the worship of false gods and evil gods."

"very good!"

Nacuse clapped his hands and said.

"As a reward for you, you can get the status of citizens of Athens. But as a punishment for your wrong words, your family will be deprived of half of your property."

At this time in the city of Aleppo, there were a total of 3000 security guards like Naqusai, all of whom were divided into groups of ten to sweep up their jurisdiction.

Not one or two Amorite families who continued to worship the three Haddad brothers became non-citizens.

The Royal Palace of Aleppo.

Roy stood on the tallest building in the palace overlooking the whole city, and found that the riots he was worried about were just groundless worries.

Because Roy freed the Ebla people from the slavery and exploitation of the Amorites, and let the goddess of the Ebla people replace the three Haddad brothers, Roy has already won 100% support from the Ebola people.

With the Ebla people actively supporting the rule of Roy, the Amorites have no room for chaos.

"I love areas where two different groups live together, and where the outsider group enslaves the native group."

Looking at the city of Aleppo, which he has established a stable rule, Roy said with a smile.

"I just let the Ebola people be treated like ordinary citizens, so that these people who are enslaved and exploited by the Amorites can regard me as a savior. Even if I leave Aleppo with the Athenian soldiers now, the Ebola recruited by the Athenian Empire The Raren soldiers will not allow the Amorites to launch a rebellion, because they absolutely do not want to be enslaved and exploited by the Amorites again."

At this moment, an Athenian soldier came behind Roy and said.

"Your Majesty, there is an envoy from Ebla City who wants to see you."

"Let him come over!"

The envoy of Ebla City came behind Roy, knelt on the ground and said with a plop.

"Your Majesty the Great Emperor! We Ebla people have launched an uprising in Ebla City to drive away the governor and nobles of the Amorites. Now we will dedicate Ebla City to you. The policies of Lepo rule the city of Ebla."
