Chapter 188 "Natural Disaster" and "The Incarnation of the New Moon"

"Lord Aisha, is there any basis for your guess?"

Money ignored Mayor's inappropriate metaphor and now wanted to know where the speculation came from.

"As the guardian knights of the Poseidon Temple, you should be very clear about our Poseidon Temple's long-standing goal, which is to transform the Kingdom of Arad into the Theocracy, and then spread the Poseidon's faith to every corner of the Theocracy."

Elsa said slowly.

The guardian knights nodded. They had studied the teachings and history during the selection. Of course they knew that Poseidon's long-cherished wish was to turn the Kingdom of Arad into a theocracy. They also knew how much the former Poseidon had paid a heavy price for this goal, and even came close. Being exterminated.

In recent years, with the decline of the royal family, this goal has begun to be mentioned again and again in Poseidon Temple, and it has long become the common goal of all members of Poseidon Temple.

Their visit to Yinghuo Town this time is also to contribute to this goal, striving to transform Yinghuo Town into a part of the Theocracy.

Is there any connection between this goal and controlling Lord Poseidon?The guardian knights were still a little confused. Only Moni had a vague guess in his heart and couldn't help but clenched his fists.

If it was really what he thought, then Aisha's guess was not groundless.

"Then you should also know that the biggest obstacle to our Poseidon Temple's establishment of a theocracy is the royal family. It was because of the royal family's suppression that our Poseidon Temple collapsed. It has only recovered in recent years."

"Although the royal family has declined in recent years, their strength is still strong. I believe you have also heard of the natural disaster Pokémon in the hands of the royal family, right?"

Elsa asked everyone.

“Are you talking about the rumored Scourge Pokémon that can dispel darkness with its sparkling scales—Staff Tail?”

Mayor has naturally heard of this Pokémon. It is said that the royal family has established a friendship with the Ankylosaurus tribe a long time ago, and every outstanding member of the royal family has the opportunity to conquer them.

Only members of the royal family who can be recognized by them are qualified to be kings, so every king will have a powerful staff-tailed scale dragon next to him.

Even the kingdom's flag has a pattern of the scales of an Ankylosaurus, which shows how much the royal family values ​​them.

The staff-tailed armored dragon tribe has not let down the royal family. They have been fighting for the royal family for so many years and are an important support for the royal family to remain strong.

"It's nonsense to use scales to dispel darkness, but the strength of the Staff Tail Scale Dragon is indeed worthy of the name of 'natural disaster'. The royal family relied on them to completely defeat our Poseidon Temple."

"It is because of the existence of the Staff Tail Scale Armored Dragon that the dukes and counts who hold real power dare not act rashly and always recognize the dominance of the royal family. This is why our Poseidon God has been dormant and dare not act rashly."

A natural disaster Pokémon may not be a big deal, but it can be defeated by finding more powerful Pokémon, but of course the cost will be heavy.

But a group of natural disaster Pokémon is a bit scary. They cooperate with each other. No matter how many ordinary Pokémon come, it will be difficult to defeat them.

"Only natural disasters can fight against natural disasters. Our Poseidon Temple has been looking for traces of other natural disaster Pokémon over the years. Recently, we have gained something. Some people saw Kuailong when they went to sea."

Elsa continued.

Fast Dragon!

The eyes of the guardian knights suddenly glowed. They knew that this kind of natural disaster Pokémon, Kuailong, was not only powerful, but also like the Lord Poseidon they believed in, they often rescued humans in distress at sea.

Therefore, the members of Poseidon Temple have a good impression of Kuailong. Dragon Knight is the dream of all knights!

"Um, can't our Poseidon Temple only be able to conquer Poseidon's people? Does Kuailong have water attributes?" Mayor asked in a low voice.

When the other guardian knights heard this, they immediately looked at Mayor like a fool.

Brother, this is a "natural disaster". Not to mention the smoke coming out of the ancestral tombs. Even if the ancestral tombs are blown up, they may not be able to conquer them. Are you still here to pick and choose?

Besides, who knows if there are water-type natural disaster Pokémon in this world? Anyway, among the known natural disaster Pokémon, none of them have water attributes. Is it possible that Poseidon Temple doesn't conquer "natural disasters" because of this?

Moni also covered his forehead helplessly, thinking crazily in his heart that this was the apprentice he had personally accepted, and if he was killed, there would be no more apprentices.

As a result, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. It would be better not to have this apprentice!He was completely embarrassed!
"Kuailong should not have water attributes, but it often appears at sea and will rescue ships in distress in storms. It is obvious that they were inspired by the Poseidon, so they are also the people of the Poseidon."

Instead of blaming Mayor, Elsa explained gently.

"I see, then won't we have the power to compete with the royal family?"

Mayor also realized at this time that he had asked a very stupid question and quickly changed the subject.

Aisha shook her head and replied: "That's not the case. We just discovered the traces of the Kuaisaurus. We can't yet determine the location of their tribe, and they may not be willing to enter into friendship with our Poseidon Temple, unless..."

Elsa paused here and did not continue, but everyone knew what she was going to say next, unless she used the power of the Shadow Church to control Pokémon.

Thinking of this, the faces of the guardian knights became very ugly. They were not stupid. Aisha had already said this. They also understood why Poseidon Temple wanted to cooperate with the Shadow Church. It was just to use the power of the Shadow Church. against the royal family.

"If that's the case, then why don't we just control the Kuailong tribe? Why do you say that the goal of the Poseidon Temple's top brass is to control Lord Poseidon?"

Mayor asked while suppressing his dissatisfaction with the higher-ups of Poseidon Temple.

"Even if we can control the Kuailong tribe, our Poseidon Temple may not be the opponent of the royal family. Don't forget, the royal family also has the Royal Knights. You should be well aware of the strength of those guard knights."

Elsa replied softly.

Mayor nodded after hearing this. The three major knights of Poseidon Temple were established in imitation of the Royal Knights. They knew the strength of the Royal Knights very well.

Although I really don't want to admit it, the strength of the Royal Knights can indeed crush the Knights Templar. Even if the three major knights of Poseidon Temple add up, they may not be the opponent of the Royal Knights.

If it weren't for the tense situation in the north, and the royal family had transferred a part of the Royal Knights from the Royal Knights to go to the north to support them, Poseidon Temple would not have dared to act so boldly.

"Coupled with the nobles who support the royal family, our Poseidon Temple's chances of winning are very low, not to mention that the royal family seems to be connected to the 'Incarnation of the New Moon'."

Elsa pondered.

"The incarnation of the new moon? Are you talking about the beautiful phantom beast that can bring people beautiful dreams?" Moni said in surprise. He originally wanted to say the dream god, which is what most people think of Cresselia. However, the Poseidon Temple stipulates that except for Poseidon and the three subordinate gods, other Pokémon cannot be called "gods".

Therefore, Moni could only call it a fantasy beast. This is also the name given to other Pokémon in Poseidon Temple that are more powerful than natural disasters but have no relevant beliefs.

If you have faith, you have to call it a false god.

In fact, some people used to believe in the God of Dreams, but Cresselia's whereabouts are even more erratic than that of Poseidon. It never appears easily or communicates with believers. People can only live in dreams or in the sky of the new moon. , so that you can occasionally see it.

Over time, Poseidon's belief in the Dream God disappeared without the need for Poseidon to take action. Therefore, Poseidon's attitude towards Cresselia was quite acceptable. It did not call it a false god, but called it a fantasy beast.

Although the Poseidon Temple refers to it as a fantasy beast, the people still respect it as the God of Dreams. This shows how strong Cresselia is. Even if its strength is not as strong as the Poseidon, it is at least not as powerful as the three subordinate gods. Weak, maybe even stronger than the divine birds.

That's why Moni was so surprised that the royal family was actually connected to the Dream God?No wonder the higher-ups of Poseidon Temple want to control Lord Poseidon at all costs. They are afraid.

Aisha nodded and said: "Yes, although it is just a rumor, there is no smoke without fire. No one can be sure whether the news is true. Poseidon Temple can only prepare for the worst, so Poseidon Temple's senior officials are urgently Earth wants to find a power that can compete with Cresselia.”

"Lord Poseidon is undoubtedly the best choice. His power is extremely powerful and he can definitely defeat Cresselia easily. However, Lord Poseidon always does as he pleases and will not obey the command of Poseidon at all, so..."

"So the adults of Poseidon Temple want to cooperate with the Shadow Church and use their power to control Poseidon? Whose bad idea is this?"

Mayor couldn't help but say.

"Mayor is right. Lord Poseidon is the foundation of our Poseidon Temple and the cornerstone of our faith. If believers learn that we use despicable means to control Lord Poseidon, their faith will definitely collapse."

Moni agreed with Mayor's statement this time. This guy finally spoke a human voice.

"And this move will definitely anger Lord Poseidon. I can't even imagine the scene where he will be angry. By then, the entire Kingdom of Arad will be at risk of destruction, and we, Poseidon God, will become sinners of mankind!"

"The most important thing is that if you use the power of the Shadow Church to control Lord Poseidon, then the final control power is not in the hands of the Shadow Church. What do those adults think?"

Moni was very puzzled. He didn't believe that the adults of Poseidon Temple would not think of the problem that he could think of, but those high-level officials still wanted to cooperate with the Shadow Church. This was too confident.

"I have had such questions, but the archbishop couldn't give me an answer. Maybe the Pope has other means. The senior officials don't seem to be worried about this issue."

"Actually, what I just said before was just speculation, but it has long been a tacit fact among the higher-ups of Poseidon Temple. The Archbishop may have also gotten the news, so he reminded me with speculation."

Aisha sighed and said that she also hoped that this guess was false, but after being reminded by the Blue Bishop and the Archbishop, she also knew that her guess was infinitely close to the truth.

"Damn it! When did Poseidon Temple become like this!"

Mayor angrily punched the wall aside. The other guardian knights also felt very uncomfortable. The current practices and teachings of Poseidon Temple were completely contrary to Poseidon Temple's current practices and teachings, and their beliefs were also shaken at this moment.

They never thought that they would become Lord Poseidon's enemy, which made their thoughts very confused, and the mentality of many guardian knights was about to collapse.

Elsa pursed her red lips when she saw this. She didn't know how to comfort these guardian knights. She was also very aware of the feeling of having her faith shaken, so she didn't want to tell these things to the guardian knights.

"Okay, cheer up! I know you are very depressed now, and you may even feel resentful towards Poseidon Temple. This is normal, but please don't forget our original belief!"

"What we believe in is Lord Poseidon, who has good intentions and saves mankind, not the God of Poseidon. As long as Lord Poseidon is still there, our faith will not waver!"

Moni said to the guardian knights in a low voice. He knew that if he didn't say something, most of the guardian knights would continue to be decadent.

"We can't interfere with what those adults do, but Lady Aisha still has a chance. As long as we help her succeed in being elected as a saint, Lady Aisha will have a chance to change the minds of the higher-ups."

"Lord Poseidon is very powerful, and those bastards from the Church of Shadows won't be able to control him for a while, so we still have a chance. We must not give up. Even for Lord Poseidon and the faith in our hearts, we must let Aisha Your Excellency is elected Saint!"

Moni's voice became louder and louder, attracting the attention of many militiamen, but he couldn't control that much now. He wanted to find a new goal for the guardian knights and unite the faith in their hearts.

After hearing what Moni said, the guardian knights also felt that it made sense.

Yes, they believe in Lord Poseidon. As long as Lord Poseidon does not change, their faith will not waver.

Moreover, the high-level officials of Poseidon Temple were probably deceived by those bastards from the Church of Shadow. As long as Lady Aisha can become a saint, there will be a chance to change the minds of the high-level officials, and Poseidon Temple will be the same as before!

"The Lord Knight is right, we still have a chance!"

"Yes, Lady Aisha is so good, she will definitely be elected as a saint and change the minds of other adults!"

The guardian knights agreed one after another. They urgently needed a goal to maintain their faith at this moment.

"Knight Commander Moni is right. I will work hard to become a saint and will not let you down."

Aisha smiled, but the smile on her face was unnatural.

Moni also discovered this. He knew that Aisha was under a lot of psychological pressure. In fact, after something like this happened, she should be the one who suffered the most.

Elsa is an orphan who was adopted by Poseidon Temple since she was a child. She must have feelings for Poseidon Temple.

But her belief in Lord Poseidon is also extremely pure. When she learned that Poseidon Temple was going to be an enemy of Lord Poseidon, she must have been very tangled in her heart.

Between her faith and her upbringing, Aisha felt much more uncomfortable than them.

Moreover, Elsa was still burdened with their expectations. With so much pressure piled up, it was already difficult for her to force herself to laugh.

It seemed that Elsa had to find something to do to divert her attention, otherwise she would be crushed sooner or later.

Fortunately, the branch hall in Firefly Town has not yet been established, and Elsa still has something to do, but she doesn't know if Baron Lane can win the war.

It should be possible. Baron Lane's strength has improved rapidly, and he still has so many strange monsters under his command. Even if he cannot win, he can retreat safely.

Money still has great confidence in Ryan, and Ryan has lived up to his trust. At this moment, he is holding down Baron Bach and beating him violently.
