"Pretty good prologue, isn't it?"

Listening to the hoarse cheers and shouts of the crowd around him, Zhang Cheng rarely showed a relaxed and happy smile on his face, and even had a sense of satisfaction in personally promoting civilization and the progress of the times.

Of course, these feelings were derived from a part of his nature that had not yet completely faded away, a false deception produced by memory.

What's more, the fate of the natives of this planet has long been arranged, no matter what changes occur, they will eventually become the children of chaos, and they will not even be able to enter the interstellar era like the civilizations of other planets, but will evolve in the continuous killing of each other until one day they reach a certain tipping point.

However, this kind of behavior with a little entertainment nature still brought Zhang Cheng a little pleasure, and he was even interested in walking into an inconspicuous tavern, ordering some drinks and food, and sitting in the corner listening to people excitedly talk about the public execution just now.

While he was tasting the slightly bitter ale and the very ordinary roasted meat, he suddenly found two mysterious corners hiding not far away, arguing in a low voice.

Going out to be curious, he used his strength a little, and immediately heard one of the men speak quickly and persuasively: "My friend, what are you still thinking about? Join us! Just believe in the great god of darkness and awaken him from his slumber, not only can he gain money, power, and fame, but he can also go to the realm of the gods to enjoy a good life after death." ”

"Yes...... But it's the god of darkness!Just hearing the name gives me the creeps!" The other man was visibly struggling, with a hesitant expression on his face.

"Idiot! Rois is the only true god in the world! Look at the false gods enshrined in the temples, and the greedy priests and priests, which one of them would give so much support and protection to the believers as our church? Unlike those in the other churches who love vanity and indulge in pleasure, she is a saint at all, a great man who is willing to sacrifice for the sake of her faith. ”

The man before waved his arms, his tone full of fanatical longing and adoration.

He would never have known that the saints he spoke of had thrown a terrible plague of magic into a densely populated city to create a horrific massacre just to fulfill the commission.

"Good...... But you have to take me to a secret meeting first, and I need to see with my own eyes and hear with my own ears. The latter clenched his fists and offered a condition.

"No problem! we have a ceremony in the woods outside the city at midnight today, and you can come and participate. Remember, you have to come alone, you have to arrive before midnight, and you can't bring any lighting with you. The man admonished in a serious tone.

"Understood!"

"Then it's midnight today, and we'll see you there. May the great god of darkness bless you!"

"See you or leave!"

......

After a brief conversation, the two left the tavern one after the other, and quickly slipped into the dark alley.

Seeing them leave, Zhang Cheng smiled and muttered to himself, "God of Darkness, it seems that that woman is quite capable, and she actually infiltrated the kingdom so quickly. Dark heroes, dark beliefs, let me see if you can make the fragrant flowers of darkness bloom. ”

The words just fell!

He dropped a few gold coins made of alchemy, and without looking back, he left the tavern and walked towards the place where the secret meeting was held outside the city.

Although he is the master, he can directly cross time and space, and go directly to the moment of the event.

But in order to add to the fun, he still chooses to arrive at his destination in the most traditional way, patiently waiting for the time to pass.

When the midnight bell of the royal capital was struck, the masked guys walked out of their hiding places and walked towards a huge black rock.

No sound!

And no one made any senseless moves!

They were like ghosts, just standing there dumbfounded.

It was a quarter of an hour before the leader stood up and chanted aloud, "Praise be to you, great god of darkness, Rois." You are the protector of the night, the only true god in this world. Please listen to our prayers and soothe our hearts......"

"Praise be to you, Roa of the Dark God!"

"May you wake up from your slumber soon!"

......

The crowd repeated the pre-recited eulogy over and over again, and the originally eerie atmosphere gradually became frenzied.

After all, religion, whether it is supported by gods or not, is to some extent a kind of brainwashing, a kind of brainwashing that makes people gradually lose themselves, lose their reason and independent thinking ability, and finally entrust everything to "God", and God will do it instead of themselves.

In particular, the group effect is most obvious in religious activities, and some guys are even more different between participating in activities and not participating in activities.

You don't need to ask to know that these dark believers have already completed their hypnosis, and if someone jumps out and asks them to commit suicide to prove their belief in the gods, I am afraid that someone will not hesitate to do so.

The leader, apparently pleased with the atmosphere at the moment, raised his hands and said loudly, "My dear brothers and sisters! Thank you for once again heeding the call of the dark god Rois to offer pure faith at this special time. Some of you may have heard of the legends of the Dark God, but there are also some new companions who don't know much about it. Today, let me tell you about the ancient history of the birth of the dark god that I don't know. ”

"Your Excellency, before you begin to tell the story, I would like to ask you to hold an acceptance ceremony for a new brother. The man who had been preaching in the tavern stood up and took off the mask from his face.

In fact, all of you know each other, and wearing masks is not so much to disguise their identities as to add to the sense of mystery and ritual.

In addition, it also has the function of being discovered, so that after being discovered, you can disperse and escape, preventing it from being caught by patrols near the royal capital.

"Oh, who is it?" the man called the priest glanced around.

"It's me. ”

Another man took the initiative to stand up and also took off his face.

The two looked at each other for about ten seconds, and the priest finally asked, "Tell me, young man, why do you believe in the god of darkness, and why did you join us?"
