Originally, Duanmuhuai planned to kill that idiot as soon as possible, and then resolve the civil war in Bretonnia, but what he didn't expect was that when he rushed to the battlefield, the guy named Marobold had already been killed!

And the one who killed him was none other than the green knight who said love is a ray of light, so green that you panic!

Speaking of which, how could I forget him?

Duanmu Huai patted his head as he looked at the green knight who raised Marobold's head to show off his might. He had heard that the lake gods and fairies had disappeared, so he subconsciously thought that the green knight had also disappeared. He didn't expect this guy to be so The time came out, and he was actually the founding emperor of Bretonnia... It was beyond Duanmuhuai's expectation.

But no matter what, the matter in Bretonnia was settled, and the king assured Duanmuhuai that after the civil war was resolved, he would lead reinforcements to the empire to resist the attack of the Chaos army.

However, Duanmuhuai's mission was not completed here. The Green Knight also hoped that Duanmuhuai could go to see the situation of the southern leaders --- I heard that there were rampant rats and plagues, and the Green Knight also did not want Bretonnia to be killed by rats. Blast the back door. But the Southern Territories are independent territories, not within the scope of Bretonnia...

The reason is the same as that of the emperor of the empire. Perhaps all emperors and kings have this virtue.

But luckily Duanmu Huai thought the rat problem was more important, if it wasn't for the trouble in Bretonnia, he would have gone there long ago. Now that the Green Knight is in charge of finishing, he unceremoniously handed over the work to the Green Knight. He took others to the southern territory.

only……………

It's so miserable...

Standing at the gate of the city, looking at the city in front of them, everyone showed surprised expressions.

The stalls outside the city gate were empty, and there were rotten fruits everywhere. There was no sound in the whole city, and the streets looked dirty and muddy. Walking on the streets, you could see sealed wooden doors and From the window, a rotten smell came, making people sick.

It's the plague.

Seeing this, Duanmu Huai's face darkened.

plague?

That's right, the common method used by the Ratman is also the most annoying thing.

Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai also gritted his teeth. The best method of the Skaven ratmen is to drive the rat swarms and spread the plague and virus to every corner of the city. Humans may be able to eliminate the Ratman, but there is nothing they can do about the virus. Under the influence of the plague and the virus, the number of soldiers who can fight will gradually decrease. When the resistance of the entire city is completely disintegrated, the Skaven Ratman will swarm out and destroy the entire city.

Family, why are some doors marked with crosses?

Sitting in Duanmu Huai's arms, Bambi curiously pointed to the side and asked. On both sides of the street, there are some houses with a big fork painted on the wooden doors with white paint, which looks very strange.

That means there are sick people in there, and generally they're just locked in the house and left to fend for themselves.

How come... Shouldn't the priests treat these patients?

Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, Lorena asked in surprise, while Duanmuhuai shook his head.

If you can't save them, you are also a priest. You should know that the power used by priests is limited. You may be able to treat hundreds of patients a day. I don't think you are too busy to treat tens of thousands of patients?

In that case, why not ask the gods for help?

...Then only they themselves will know.

Duanmuhuai shook his head. The method adopted by the Ratman is also the most commonly used method by the believers of the God of Plague. Simply put, the lower limit of the medical system has been broken down. Whether it is magic or science, the patients treated will always be limited. Once this limit is exceeded, the entire medical system will collapse completely, and this situation cannot be avoided even in a highly developed interstellar world, let alone a world similar to the Middle Ages.

In fact, there are also many cases where the world was issued an extermination order by the judge because the treatment was not timely, in order to prevent it from falling into the hands of the god of disease—hey, I will not give it to you if you want it, and I will piss you off.

As for the other question... Well, Duanmu Huai said that he also wanted to ask.

To be honest, Duanmuhuai really didn't understand why compared with the evil gods, the righteous gods always seemed very petty when they performed miracles. In this regard, the Nine Holy Spirits in Tianji Province are very calm. The statue is there, and anyone can go up to ask for a blessing. Although the blessing itself is not particularly strong, it can indeed make people feel the power bestowed by the gods .

This is also the reason why there are only nine holy spirits in Mingtian Province, but there are more believers than demon gods.

After all, when people have a choice, they are still willing to take the right path.

Yes, there are options.

On the contrary, the gods here, gave Duanmu Huai the feeling that they were stingy, and it was fine if they didn't show their saints on weekdays, and they would pretend to be dead one by one in an emergency. To be honest, Duanmu Huai was quite troubled by Bretonnia's problems at first. After all, the lake goddess was missing, and the lake goddess was like a dead person. In that case, even if he defeated the rebels, he would definitely There will be a second fallen one to come forward.

But now that the Green Knight is responsible, let him go.

In Duanmuhuai's view, ordinary believers are divided into two types.

One is that you don't believe it in normal times, and you just cram for it in an emergency.

Another kind of believer, in Duanmuhuai's view... is basically similar to buying insurance.

To put it simply, paying a sum of money on weekdays and then expecting insurance to come in handy when danger arises is almost the same idea.

Otherwise, why would someone devoutly believe in gods? There may be people who seek inner peace, but most people are obviously not the kind of monks.

And when you have worked hard to pay insurance premiums for decades, and when you need to use it, the insurance company says that we will not pay you in this case-then the insurance company has the heart to smash it.

Most of those fallen believers also think this way.

So in many cases, it is better not to believe in an unreliable god, and conversely, a religious institution like the Holy Church where Lorena belongs is a very reasonable religious institution. When something happens, the gods will take action, and the believers will immediately think of asking the gods for help—that is not the hope that many believers pray for a miracle, but more like the reaction to calling the police when they encounter bad people.

Relatively speaking, this religious relationship is much healthier.

As for unhealthy religious relationships...it's like this.

Burn him to death!!

When Duanmuhuai and his party walked through the street and came to the square, there was a crowd of people holding torches, pitchforks, and some soldiers beside them. At this moment, they were surrounding a man wearing a priest's robe, and threw stones and other things at him, smashing the head of the unlucky priest. Although the priest wanted to speak several times, he was interrupted by the mob.

We don't want sigma! Get out!!

Sigma is our patron saint!

Hearing the roar of the mob, the priest increased his voice.

He is our protector!!

Fuck your Sigma! Fuck your asylum! If the asylum works, then my daughter won't die!!

A peasant woman roared and threw a stone vigorously, hitting the priest. And beside her, there are many farmers laughing at him.

Where is the glory of your so-called god? Where was he when we needed him? Why didn't he stop the plague? Why did so many people die? Sigma is still indifferent? He doesn't care if we live or die!

It was you who brought us the plague!!

The other people next to him also burst into anger at this moment.

You brought this city into ruin! You brought it all! Capture him and burn him to death!!

Master Knight, do we... want to go up and help?

An is not here, but Bambi is too frightened by the mob to speak. Augis sits on Duanmuhuai's shoulder as usual, ignoring these things at all. I'm afraid even if the priest was burned alive in front of him, Augis Jissie didn't care either. As for Audrey, she stood behind Duanmuhuai without saying a word, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Only Lorena was a little uneasy. After all, she was also a priest, so she couldn't bear to watch a priest be burned alive.

Okay, leave it to me.

Duanmuhuai didn't bother to watch this farce anymore, he coughed, took a step forward, and roared angrily.

roll!!

A sound like thunder shook the entire square in an instant, and those mobs also turned around. When they saw Duanmuhuai, the faces of these mobs instantly turned pale. They scurried around like mice, and some people were so frightened that they passed out on the spot.

Well, thinking about it in a good way, this is actually no different from the appearance of the emperor superstar. When the emperor superstar appears on the stage, some fans will always pass out.

So it seems that his charm is close to that of a superstar.

Thinking so, Duanmuhuai walked up to the priest, who was just rubbing the blood off his forehead at this moment. When he saw Duanmuhuai walking over, his eyes were startled, but when he saw the Holy Grail on Duanmuhuai's chest When he got the badge, he saluted immediately.

I didn't expect to see the Holy Grail Knight here.

I never thought that I would see the priest of Sigma here... This is not the territory of the empire.

The Southern Territories are right next door to Bretonnia. It is understandable for Duanmu Huai to drop by as a Holy Grail Knight, but it is incomprehensible for a Sigmar priest to come here.

I heard about the plague that happened in the southern territories, so I came here specially to spread the glory of Sigma... But you have also seen, Your Excellency, that they have been deeply affected by the plague, and they can't even understand the truth. Obviously, as long as you have a devout faith, you can get a way of life...

How to put it, this is the incompatibility between the two.

Hearing the priest's words, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes.

For these plague-stricken people, as long as Sigma can perform a miracle to clear the plague in this town, they will immediately become devout Sigmar believers.

However, this priest thinks that they must first show their pious beliefs before they can gain the glory of Sigmar...

But for those who have already lost everything, this obviously means nothing.

All in all, let's find a place to talk first.

Duanmu Huai glanced around.

After all, the situation seemed to be more complicated than I imagined.
