Working Prophet

Chapter 248 Justice Trial

"Do you know that such a decision may lead to the loss of many innocent people?" High Priest Hesiod said seriously.

"Then we can do nothing and just watch the Shuangxiu Cult grow and develop day by day until we are replaced. By then, no one in the entire Western Region will believe in Pisiya anymore, and there will be Saturday believers everywhere." Hero Dodd said.

"You're talking nonsense, you're scaremongering!" the oldest high priest Kekuon reprimanded.

"We lost the green field, not Rock Snow City, and the Arias family is not the Figuerola family. Even if Ilea is really allowed to join that double-holiday education, it will not affect the overall situation!"

However, Herodotus did not maintain his previous humble attitude this time, and asked, "Then why are we getting together today?"

High Priest Kokoon was speechless.

High Priest Reeves also spoke in support of his disciples at this time, "Everyone, this is war, and war is about bloodshed. We are all children of the Silver Moon Goddess. We have always been favored and blessed by her. Now it is our turn. It’s time to do something for her!”

"You speak as if you are going to go to the battlefield in person." High Priest Martina said softly.

"If you, High Priest Martina, have a better solution, then of course we are willing to listen." High Priest Reeves said calmly.

"I still adhere to the church's consistent tradition and focus on wooing the noble lords in the Western Region."

"But haven't you already sent your disciples to win over Ilea, and you yourself have also taken action yourself, offering her unprecedentedly generous terms.

"The church was even willing to create an honorary high priest position specifically for her, and also promised to build a temple on her territory and provide money to fund her city construction. But how did she respond to the olive branch we extended?"

"Ilea has been completely bewitched by Merlin and the foreign god behind him. She has lost her faith in the goddess and can no longer look back." High Priest Hesiod asserted, "We must teach her and Merlin a lesson. .

"Then contact other families and ask them to put pressure on the Arias family."

"High Priest Martina, you know how cunning those nobles are. No family with enough weight is willing to stand up at this time and accuse Ilea face to face."

"So you are going to start a war that will make the Western Territory a river of blood?" High Priest Martina raised her voice. She looked around at her colleagues, "What if we lose?"

"The number of our believers is a hundred times a thousand times theirs, how could we lose." Someone said.

"You were just as confident last time when you asked Adele to challenge Merlin."

"It seems that we have some differences on this issue. In this case, let's follow the old rules and let everyone vote." High Priest Reeves suggested, "So... who supports High Priest Martina?"

"Count me in," said the High Priest Korkuon, "I am not afraid of Merlin and his Shuangxiu Cult, but I also don't want to see a war happen."

"Your kindness is truly a blessing to all living beings. Is there anyone else?" High Priest Reeves looked around, but did not see the second person raising his hand. "Then it will be the turn of those who support the war. People."

This time, four people in the hall raised their hands.

High Priest Reeves looked at his disciple, "High Priest Herodotus, what do you mean?"

"I abstain." Herodotus smiled, "You and High Priest Martina are both seniors I respect very much. I can't choose between you, but I will abide by all decisions of the church."

"Little slicker!" High Priest Reeves muttered in a voice that only he could hear, "But it doesn't matter, we have already received four votes, and the Silver Moon Church will launch a just trial against the Shuangxiu Church! It's time Let those infidels see our tough side."

High Priest Martina couldn't help but sigh after hearing the last words, but she also knew that she was powerless to prevent this from happening.

The vote taken by the seven high priests together is an iron law that no one can question.

And High Priest Martina didn't think about subverting the truth or using other tricks. The most taboo thing at this time was having different thoughts and appearances.

Unity is the most important thing. Once a decision is made, everyone must act around it.

High Priest Martina said to High Priest Herodotus, "Since you proposed it first, I guess you already have a plan in mind."

High Priest Herodotus nodded, "After successfully slaying the dragon, Shuangxiu Cult now has a positive reputation among the people. It may not be easy to directly teach the believers to attack them, so the key is to create a gap between the two sides first. The conflict has led believers to believe that Shuangxiu Cult is an evil party and that their very existence is a blasphemy against the goddess."

"A means of creating conflict..."

"I've thought about it."

"Then you will be responsible for this matter." High Priest Kokoon followed suit.

This kind of job is not very profitable. If you do it well, there will be little benefit, but if you don't do it well, there will be a lot of trouble. Kirku Weng is already old and just wants to live a peaceful life for a few more decades and does not want to take such risks.

Several other high priests also had this idea more or less. High Priest Martina wanted to come forward, but she also knew that this aspect was not her strength, and she could not do as well as Herodotus, so in the end she This arrangement was adopted by default.

Herodotus did not refuse this time. He bowed and said solemnly, "May the radiance of the goddess drive away all evil in the world."

"May the radiance of the goddess drive away all evil in this world." All the high priests agreed.

Li Yu did not waste the reputation brought by slaying the dragon. In recent times, he has also increased the intensity and frequency of preaching.

Not only did they send a large number of Xiushi to start killing people in the Green Field area, but they also went into battle in person to preach the various doctrines of the Shuangxiu Sect to a group of new and old believers.

In addition, the model village he built is now in use, especially in this cold winter. The airtight red brick walls and the hot Kang leave a lasting impression on all who come to visit. Very impressed.

In conjunction with the announcement by the female lord that she was about to convert to Saturday, everyone's enthusiasm for joining the religion became even higher.

Li Yu looked at the fifty fathoms in his hand. In the column of the belief count, it was less than seven days since the last harvest, and there were already nearly 1,800 beliefs.

He roughly estimated the number of believers in the Shuangxiu Church today, and it was now close to 3,000.

It's a pity that most of them are just ordinary believers, not fanatic believers like the lizard people. Each one can only provide a little faith.
