Chapter 444: Corrupt church

Latest website: On the gray sky.
The fissures like thunder snakes are densely covered, and they are constantly twisting and changing, as if the entire sky will shatter in the next second.
There is no breeze in the air, which brings people an inexplicable depression.
And the desperate cry and pleading make people feel more irritable and depressed...
This is a small-scale village, located on the side of the main road leading to the city of Saiggs.
On the wide road at the entrance of the village, a woman who looked about twenty years old and dressed as a village woman held a male thigh in a priest's robe, crying bitterly and begging:
"My priest, my priest, my child doesn't want to be a child of nature, really doesn't want to be a child of nature, please don't take him away! Please don't take him away! He is only four years old this year!"
The priest was expressionless.
And behind him, there was a line of heavily armed soldiers.
The soldiers escorted a carriage full of young children.
The children were locked in the car, crying from afar, but the soldiers and priests were unmoved.
Many villagers were onlookers around.
They looked at the carriage and the women with complexity and sympathy, while the priests and soldiers looked at them with anger and hostility.
However, I dare not speak.
They stood around in silence, watching a young child being stuffed into a carriage by the soldiers.
There was a burst of crying.
The priest kicked the crying woman away, staring at the front with hollow eyes, without any emotion in his voice:
"All the children who are blessed by nature are the natural blessings of the God of Creation."
"It is an honor for him to be a child of nature and contribute to the recovery of the true God."
As he said, he waved his hand to the other soldiers.
After receiving his order, the same expressionless soldier changed his formation.
They drove a carriage, surrounded the priests, turned and left...
Only the woman was left kneeling on the ground, crying desperately.
When the priests and soldiers went away, the villagers helped up the crying women with hoarse voices, and sighs also sounded in the crowd.
"Hey, another one."
"In the past few years, the church has become more and more exaggerated. Is it making people feel better?"
"Shhh, keep it quiet, it's not good to be heard by someone with a heart."
"Nina is also poor, who made her child be natural..."
"I only hope that her child can become a priest, not a sacrifice..."
"Who knows, there are so many children who are forcibly taken away each year, but how many priests are there, and look at those cruel and ruthless guys, do you want your children to be like that?"
"Hey, let's pray not to give birth to natural children."
The villagers sighed and shook their heads.
No one noticed that there was a humble carriage beside them, watching the whole process.
In the carriage, Calabash retracted his gaze and frowned slightly:
"What the is this creation church doing? How come you see them forcibly recruiting children everywhere?"
The expressions of several other players are also not very good.
It has been three days since they left the town of God's Grace.
In these three days, almost every human settlement they passed through could see similar things.
Even if they knew that this was a game, but they had already substituted themselves in, they couldn't help but be disgusted with the clergy of these churches...
Of course, this is also because of the existence of the task, so that players have naturally regarded these ordinary people as their own camp.
If they guess right, these humans will most likely be converted into believers of the goddess when things happen.
It can be said that these humans are all potential allies in the future.
For this reason, in the beginning, players will cover their appearance and secretly rescue the children they see.
Hmm... That's how the camp's favorability comes from.
However, after doing it a few times, they aroused the vigilance of the Cult of Creation, and asked the other party to assign soldiers to the clergy.
Several people were worried that if they intervened again, they might be stunned, so they had to stop.
However, they also became increasingly disgusted with the so-called Church of Creation God.
And after hearing a few people’s words, the driver explained while driving on the road:
"Hey, a few adults don't know, this is the way the church expands the clergy."
"When the adults of the Protoss were there, the church was still very desirable. Many people regarded being priests as the highest honor..."
"However, since the retreat of the Protoss, the church has become more and more presumptuous and more and more degenerate... They have begun to force all children with natural attributes to join the church."
"Those children with potential will be trained by them as priests who only know how to sacrifice for the gods, while children without potential will be directly sacrificed to the gods as sacrifices..."
As he said, the groom sighed:
"Now, except for the small town of God's Grace, which lives in seclusion in the Fairy Forest, who doesn't worry that their children are natural attributes..."
"The church is no longer the church it used to be."
"Then why not resist?"
The optimist asked.
"How to resist?"
The coachman shook his head.
"The church controls the most powerful force. Almost all Tier 2 or above professionals come from the church. Who has the ability to resist?"
After hearing what the coachman said, the players looked at each other and fell silent.
indeed.
Although this half-plane human has the blood of the elves, most of them have more or less mastered such a little bit of extraordinary power, but at most they are of the apprentice level.
Few people stepped into the black iron.
The black iron mid-ranks that the players saw were all clergy and soldiers of the church, except for the elder Rue.
"Is this the church created by the betrayal of the goddess? To me, this church is no different from a cult."
Chopin shook his head.
Others also showed approval.
They are not fledgling whites either.
At this moment, if they don't know what these church personnel are doing, they will be under the guidance of the elder sister for nothing.
Obviously, this church has long since deviated from the path of a normal church.
They have changed from preaching belief to forced brainwashing, from benevolent rulers to cruel exploiters, and even directly offering suitable children as sacrifices to the gods!
Of course, coupled with the capture of the life potential of the demiplane creatures, it can be said that this "creation god" has completely stood on the opposite side of the goddess...
The carriage continued for a quarter of an hour, and then came to a halt slowly.
Then, the coachman's voice came from the front:
"My lords, Segus City is ahead, I won't send you all into the city."
He doesn't know the real identities of the players, only that the players are entrusted by the elders to enter the city to do business.
After listening to the coachman, the players looked out the window and saw a magnificent city with a vaguely recognizable elf style.
They got out of the carriage one after another, and after the coachman said goodbye to a few people ~EbookFREE.me~ they drove back.
"Captain, what do you do next?"
Several players looked at the box lunch.
The bento reached out and took out a crystal-shaped ball from his arms.
At this moment, the orb was shining with energetic light, and it seemed to be called by some kind.
This is a task tool given to the players by the God Elder Ruegg, able to sense the existence of the Heart of Life.
It flickers, which means that the players are close to the heart of life.
I saw the box lunch holding the crystal ball tightly, closing my eyes and feeling for a while.
After a moment, he opened his eyes:
"Follow the induction."
The group once again arranged their equipment and walked towards the city gate.
