Chapter 225 The ancient book takes all the blame

Seeing the surprised expressions on Aisha and others, Ryan realized that he had said too much.

The information about the mythical beasts is extremely secretive. Even in the future alliance period, humans still know little about the mythical beasts. They can only guess whether the mythical beasts exist through various myths and legends, let alone this era of limited information.

In this era, most humans don't know that the so-called "gods" are actually Pokémon. They think that the gods they believe in belong to the human camp and are sent by God to protect them from monsters.

A few such as the Poseidon Temple and the royal family have seen the true form of the god, and those who know the truth are trying their best to cover up this fact.

They can't help but cover it up. If civilians find out that the god they pray to all day long is a monster, the mentality of the civilians will definitely collapse, and their fear of monsters will further deepen. They will live in fear and panic every day, and even daily life will be difficult. To continue.

Although the status of civilians is very low, they are the cornerstone of royal power and belief. After they know the truth, they will definitely have an impact on the rule of the royal family and the divine authority of Poseidon Temple.

Therefore, the two major forces finally reached a tacit agreement and used various means to maintain the mystery of the mythical beast.

For example, laws were promulgated to prohibit people from conducting research on gods. Another example is that Poseidon Temple firmly controls the right to interpret gods and does not allow others to question or refute.

Under the cover of the two major forces, neither the nobles nor the common people knew much about Poseidon. They only knew that He was the god in charge of the sea and had the amazing power to suppress the sea.

There are three major gods beside him: the god of fire, the god of thunder and the god of ice. Each god has the ability to destroy the heaven and earth, and will punish humans who are disrespectful to the sea god.

However, Lord Poseidon sympathizes with humans and does not want humans to be harmed, so he will restrain the three major gods and prevent them from easily appearing in the human world.

At the same time, Lord Poseidon will also rescue humans in distress at sea and calm storms and tsunamis.

In short, in one sentence, Lord Poseidon is strong and has a good character, so it is right to believe in him.

This is also a common propaganda method of the church. First, it uses the power of the gods to awe the people, and then uses the love of the gods to harvest faith.

It's just that the gods in the Pokémon world are real, so the Poseidon Temple doesn't dare to act recklessly, and it doesn't do any tricks like "atonement coupons".

Poseidon is like a big mountain pressing on Poseidon Temple, asking them to be cautious in everything they do, for fear of angering Poseidon.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Poseidon wants to cooperate with the Shadow Church to control Poseidon. They want to control faith instead of being held hostage by faith.

They wanted an imaginary god more than the real-life Poseidon Lugia, so that they could spread their faith according to their own needs without having to go to great lengths to hide the information.

It's a pity that although Lugia is a homebody, he will show up from time to time. Poseidon Temple can only wipe its butt honestly and prevent its information from being exposed.

In order to keep this secret, Poseidon Temple does not even tell its own people. Some low-level believers know about Poseidon about the same as ordinary people. Only members with higher status can know some truth.

As a candidate for a saint, Elsa certainly knows the truth, and Moni and other guardian knights also know the truth more or less.

But how did Ryan know?He is just a noble, or a baron with a low status among the nobles. Why does he know so much information about gods, even the names of the three subordinate gods.

And since he knows the names of the three major gods, it means that he knows that the three major gods are Pokémon. After all, only Pokémon have "bird" in their names.

By analogy, would he guess that Lord Poseidon is also a Pokémon?Or does he already know the truth?

Faced with the inquiring looks of Aisha and others, Ryan stopped pretending and showed off his cards directly.

"Yes, just as you think, I do know that Poseidon and the three major gods are Pokémon. As for the source of the information, I read it from an ancient book."

Ryan once again put the blame on Gushu.

"Is it the ancient book you mentioned last time that contained information about the Devouring Turtle?"

Elsa asked.

"Huh? Oh, yes, yes, that's the ancient book!"

Ryan nodded.

Aisha was speechless when she saw this. Could your acting be any more fake?

But Aisha didn't expose Ryan's lies. Everyone has secrets in their hearts. They are just partners, and there is no need to get to the bottom of it.

It's a good thing that Ryan knows the truth about Poseidon, and they no longer have to be secretive when communicating.

Thinking of this, Aisha said frankly:

"Since you know Lord Poseidon's information from that ancient book, let's simply share all the information that both parties know, check for any gaps, and formulate a plan to thwart the Shadow Church."

"no problem."

Naturally, Ryan would not object. He wanted to weaken the aura of the god a little, so that Elsa and others would not be too timid when facing Lugia and the Three Fools and Three Holy Birds, which would hold him back.

So in the next period of time, Aisha and others' impressions of Poseidon and the three major gods suffered an unprecedented impact.

"Ah? Lord Poseidon also has a family. Is there more than one Lugia in the sea?"

"There is not only one of the three major gods, but there are even other forms?"

"What? Lord Poseidon has no water attribute? How is this possible?! He is Poseidon!!"

Aisha and others all showed expressions of disbelief. If they had not known that Ryan had no need to lie to them, they would have thought that Ryan was playing tricks on them.

Seeing this, Ryan did not continue to reveal any more information. The information just mentioned was enough for Aisha and the others to digest it for a while. If they said any more, their mentality would probably collapse.

The previous actions of Poseidon Temple's senior officials have shaken their faith a lot. Coupled with the information revealed by Ryan, no matter how noble their faith is, it will be affected.

And this is exactly the purpose of Ryan revealing the information. I really think he just wants to have a mouthful.

Well, okay, he did want to indulge in his mouth, and he also wanted to see Aisha and others shocked to satisfy his bad taste.

But the main purpose is to weaken the sanctity of Poseidon, thereby opening a hole in Aisha's belief, slowly drawing them over, and leaving their own nails in Poseidon Temple.

The reason why Ryan agreed to help Aisha was also for this purpose.

Ever since Ryan learned about the church power of Poseidon Temple, he has been thinking about how to control Poseidon Temple.Because in Ryan's view, Poseidon Temple is the potential biggest enemy.

Among the two major forces in the Arad Kingdom, the royal family has lost its right to rule the local area. As long as the nobles nominally recognize the royal family's dominance, the royal family will not take action against the nobles, so Ryan will not be an enemy of the royal family for the time being.

But Poseidon Temple is different. They had always had the idea of ​​​​instruding the lord, and now they are cooperating with the Shadow Church, and they are destined to be Ryan's enemy.

Compared with enemies such as Baron Bach and the Shadow Church, Poseidon is more difficult to deal with. They will use the beliefs of civilians to continuously expand their influence. Although they have no actual power, they are slowly achieving spiritual rule over civilians.

Not to mention other places, there are many people in Lane's base camp Yinghuo Town who believe in Poseidon.

Ryan has always been deeply worried about this. Once Ryan and Poseidon are enemies, then these civilians who believe in Poseidon will be the biggest hidden danger.

Although civilians can't do much now, in the future, in order for humans and Pokémon to live in harmony, Ryan will definitely promote the National Trainer Program. By then, civilians will have the power to cause riots.

If you want to eliminate this hidden danger, you must either terminate the National Trainer Plan and prevent civilians from gaining power, or take control of the Poseidon Temple and let them operate according to their own will.

Of course, there is a more drastic method, which is to strictly prohibit the spread of Poseidon's beliefs and prevent civilians from believing in Poseidon.

But this method is difficult to achieve. Faith is a product of the development of the times and cannot be cut off at all.

Faith has never disappeared since its birth. Even in the future where technology and ideas are extremely developed, faith will still exist.

Blindly cutting off the spread of faith will only be counterproductive, and will also be targeted by Poseidon God.

Ryan did have the idea of ​​creating a new faith, which can be seen from the creation god in the background story he told the players.

But he finally gave up the idea. He didn't want to provoke the two major forces of Poseidon and the royal family at the same time.

If Poseidon is not allowed to spread faith in the territory, it will only attract Poseidon's backlash, and the royal family may support Ryan in doing so.

But if he creates a new faith, it will be equivalent to declaring war with Poseidon. The royal family will also regard Ryan as an enemy. After all, Poseidon is the state religion of the Kingdom of Arad. If you, a noble, build a church, isn't this a slap in the face of the royal family? .

Therefore, Ryan could only choose to give up the national trainer plan, or try to control the Poseidon Temple.

Ryan chose the latter without hesitation. The National Trainer was related to his dream and future, and he could not give up.

Besides, since Poseidon wants to evade him, it would be reasonable for him to want to evade Poseidon in turn.

When Ryan only had one town, he had this idea, but at that time he was too weak and it would be better not to be ignored by Poseidon Temple, so he could only hide this idea in his heart.

He is not very strong now and cannot compare to Poseidon Temple. He originally wanted to develop for a while before dealing with Poseidon Temple, but Poseidon Temple gave him a chance.

They actually destroyed their faith and chose to cooperate with the Shadow Church.

To be honest, Ryan almost laughed out loud when he learned the news from Aisha just now.

As expected of the high-ranking officials of Poseidon Temple, everyone’s mind is filled with sea water!

Originally, Elsa and others had extremely firm faith in Poseidon. Ryan couldn't find a breakthrough even if he tried to find a way out, so he could only try to win over Knight Commander Moni first.

As a result, the high-level officials of Poseidon Temple directly carried out a wave of out-of-control operations, actively shaking Aisha's faith and forcing them to cooperate with him.

Elsa is a candidate for the Holy Virgin, and she is qualified to run for the Pope.

As long as Ryan continues to influence Elsa during cooperation and make her recognize his ideas, when she is elected pope, the Poseidon Temple will not be an obstacle to her, and will even be a help to Ryan.

This goal may be too far away, but it is not impossible to achieve.

Moreover, after reaching cooperation with Aisha, there are many benefits in a short period of time. At least Ryan can slightly change the beliefs spread in his territory and let the beliefs serve his rule.

That's why Ryan revealed so much information to break Elsa's inherent ideas. Only in this way can Elsa and others accept his ideas.

It took a while for Aisha to calm down her turbulent emotions.

She looked at Ryan with an extremely complicated look. She didn't expect that Ryan would tell so much unknown information. She thought that Ryan didn't know much information. At most, he could tell about Lord Poseidon and the three major attributes. God's name.

Who would have thought that Ryan could say so much with just one mouth. Not to mention Elsa, even the Pope of Poseidon Temple would know very little about this information.

How did Ryan learn this information? Is there really an ancient book?
Aisha, who was shocked by so much information, had lost her original wisdom and calmness, and actually suspected that Ryan had an ancient book.

Just when Aisha wanted to borrow the ancient book, Ryan took the lead and said:

"You may not be able to accept the information I told you for a while, but it doesn't matter. You can go back and digest it slowly. After you fully accept it, we will discuss the next plan."

"Actually, I am telling you this information just to let you separate Poseidon Lugia and Poseidon Temple. It is not because of the existence of Poseidon Temple that Lugia will protect humans, but Lugia itself is close to humans and is unwilling to Seeing humans die in shipwrecks.”

"Like other Pokémon, it has good intentions towards humans, but the higher-ups of Poseidon Temple want to use this goodwill to harm Lugia. What is the difference between doing this and the Church of Shadows?"

"You can also think about it carefully when you go back. Do you believe in Poseidon Lugia or Poseidon God?"

Aisha and others were silent when they heard this. They were also thinking about the problem Ryan said.

Previously, in order to stabilize the mentality of the guardian knights, Moni said that they believed in Poseidon, not Poseidon. Aisha also agreed with this statement.

But they knew in their hearts that this was just a temporary measure, and they had to return to Poseidon Temple in the end and abide by Poseidon Temple's teachings.

But Ryan's words gave them a different idea. Since Lord Poseidon is just a Pokémon close to humans, what is the significance of the various teachings of Poseidon Temple?

The senior officials have formulated strict doctrines to restrain the believers, but they themselves take the lead in violating it, and are even frantically preparing to attack Lord Poseidon. Is such a Poseidon Temple worthy of their belief and maintenance?

Seeing that Aisha and others were lost in thought, Ryan knew that what he said had an effect. He didn't want to change Aisha and others' minds now. Poseidon God had brainwashed them for so many years. It wasn't just a few words from him. Can be changed easily.

But there will still be a long time to come. What he said today is like a few flames, which may seem inconspicuous, but Ryan believes that one day the flames will turn into a raging fire and burn all the Poseidon Temple that is hindering him.

He will re-establish a new Poseidon Temple in the ashes that conforms to his own ideals! (End of chapter)
