The tyrannical and tyrannical 'God of Tyranny' has a bad reputation in most parts of the Western Continent. No matter how much the monarchs like those cool officials, they must also beware of being too tough and man-made - which is why in the East there is an administrative concept of outer Confucianism and internal law, which wraps the inner coldness in the cloak of kindness.

Similarly, in the game, even lords who are known for their brutality often allow the actions of the good camp churches in their realms - especially to convince believers that suffering is a 'god of suffering'. With spiritual sustenance and buffer, their rule will be much more secure.

The temple of the 'God of Tyranny' is not only suppressed by the churches of the good factions, but its establishment will also cause the vast majority of the people in the realm to be deeply emotionally uneasy and act in opposition to the ruler - the common people will choose to flee in fear of a tragic future. Merchants will move their trade centers, and the nobles may be plotting to overthrow the tyrant above their heads.

Because many ordinary people regard the priests of the 'God of Tyranny' as narrow-minded and self-righteous dictators, who do not care about the use of vile means and violence to try to seize more power; Even the Indigenous adventurers have always seen it as a hater and a symbol of the word "rigidity" as joining forces with monsters, demons, and savage creatures to achieve evil goals.

The occurrence of such a result is inseparable from the continuous propaganda of the Pan-continental Church in the good camp for many years. Under the condition of mastering the largest propaganda machine in the Western Continent, even the dead have a way to say that they are alive. What's more, the style of the 'god of tyranny' is no different from the content of the propaganda. Therefore, even the nobles, as long as they do not want to use the power of the Church of the 'God of Tyranny' to help them solve the enemies that cannot be defeated by force. It will also be regarded as the most extreme threat.

So don't look at the Seven Cities Alliance, which only gave the other party the qualification to build a temple publicly. From another point of view, they were also given the right to be qualified to preach publicly. So a fluttery contract doesn't seem to pay anything substantial. It will be possible to obtain a reliable army in wartime. But the political costs are not small - and in addition to internal problems. Propaganda offensives in other countries that have taken the moral high ground and a change in attitude towards the good camp organizations can also cause great trouble.

Pastor Gatsby's series of explanations made it clear to even those who were not interested in ******** the meaning of what Mr. Joddle had told the message to the representative. What's more, it's people like Barrett and Rielly, after the two of them look at each other, their faces change completely.

Barrett then pondered for a moment before he spoke, "If Mr. Yodel's message is fine. And you can't get in touch with Walkerson. Is it possible that the city of Walkerson has problems under the enemy's offensive. ”

"It can't be!" Hearing this, Pastor Gatsby immediately roared, "The quality of Walkerson's city defense is not comparable to that of this small ruined place in Wintersprings. Not to mention the fact that the army there is well-armed and well-trained. The city's supplies are also sufficient for a major battle......"

But as he spoke, Pastor Gatsby's voice became quieter. Because Barrett's speculation is a bit like the situation he is facing. Although he didn't want to believe that conclusion in any case, the results of sending messages to Walkerson City one after another without getting a response really hit his confidence.

Barrett's guess is really very likely. Only the fall of a large city within the Seven Cities Alliance will make those in power willing to take the action of inviting the 'God of Tyranny' to quench their thirst! Rielly also seemed to corroborate at this time, adding to Barrett's previous statement.

The reason why the Seven-City Alliance is called the Seven-City Alliance and not the Six-City Alliance or the Eight-City Alliance is that it is the seven most powerful large cities in this political bloc. The reason why they were able to fight against the other two polities in the Northland was because of the mutual help of these seven cities.

If only a city had fallen, as Barrett had said. That will have a ripple effect that will upset the local equilibrium. The strength and war potential of the Seven Cities Alliance will be greatly hit, and it is not surprising that they suddenly fall into a big disadvantage.

"No, I've got to try again!" Pastor Gatsby, who said this, turned and ran. At the same time, this thought also popped up in his heart: 'If it doesn't work, send a message to ask in Black Iron City.' The Dwarven City was the strongest fortress in the Seven Cities Alliance. Even if Walkerson falls, there will be no problems there anytime soon. ’

Pastor Gatsby looked at him running away. Barrett's face is still horribly gloomy. However, Rielly did not hesitate to ask, "Barrett, how sure are you of your previous guess?" ”

"If it's possible, I naturally hope that the probability of my guess coming true is as low as possible." Barrett's face became worse when he said this, "But at the moment, I am afraid that the chances of guessing correctly are not small." Of course, based on what I know about Walkerson City, the probability of a complete fall is unlikely. But there might be street fighting right now! ”

But Mr. Yodel behaved strangely as well. Shouldn't he have consulted directly with Pastor Gatsby about this kind of thing? Why tell us first! Rielly was puzzled.

Barrett understands the joints: "It's not because of the fear of failure. So we found people like us to beat the side drums. ”

The doctrine of the 'God of Tyranny' has zero tolerance for failure. To put it bluntly, any failure is completely tolerated, and the tyrant will not hesitate to throw his loyal and failed servants into terrible and harsh punishments, to ensure that others will continue to fully obey his strict obedience dogma. Therefore, any believer in the 'God of Tyranny' is more obsessed with the success of his actions than outsiders can imagine.

"In that case, we'll just have to wait for news from Pastor Gatsby. I hope the Seven Cities Alliance won't be defeated this time! Otherwise, we would be in a very bad situation. Rielly sighed, then turned away: "Forget it! I'd better go back to the house and copy the scroll!" Do a little more preparation. The battle that waits for a while may be able to last a little longer. ”

"Then I'll keep an eye on the guys in the square first." With that, Barrett walked towards the observation hole from earlier.

About half an hour later. A minister came up behind Barrett: "Disturb Mr. Boreham. The priest wants you to come over now. He said there was an emergency that needed to be discussed with you. ”

"So fast?" Barrett, who heard the news, immediately understood what was going on. He immediately turned back and asked, "Where is the meeting place?" I'll go right over. ”

"In the previous reception room! Mr. Boram, please hurry, the priest's tone seemed urgent. The minister said with a special reminder.

Barrett, who nodded, hurried to the reception room he had been to in three steps and two steps. When the place opened the door, it was not only himself and Klymatis, but also Mr. Yodel. Strangely, however, the leader of the mercenary group seemed to have been excluded from the meeting.

Reverend Gatsby, who was the host, motioned for Barrett to close the door. Immediately after holding the scepter, he activated the soundproofing effect in the temple. Then he first walked up to Mr. Yodel: "You have been wronged by the previous situation. I have reported this to the Higher Temple. As soon as you pass the audit, your compensation will be paid immediately. ”

"You see that this thing has been done! Now the question is how to solve the current situation. Mr. Yodl's expression was serious, "My lord's agreement with the Seven Cities Alliance is to help them defeat the invaders. Only then was he able to preach freely and build a temple. Although we are a small place in the town of Winter Springs. But judging from the current situation, it is best to be able to hold on to the good thing. In this way, it will be able to contain some of the forces of the mammoths, and if you are lucky, you may be able to attract some of the military strength of the Seven Cities Alliance. ”

"You're saying that you intend to use this temple in Wintersprings as a threatening stronghold to share the pressure from the rest of the Seven Cities Alliance." Kleimatis's expression was a little unkind, "I don't think there's a reason for us to pay so much for the Seven Cities Alliance!" After all, we have no obligation in this kind of thing. ”

Seeing that Clematis seemed to want to continue talking, Barrett immediately reached out to interrupt her remarks. Then he turned his attention to Pastor Gartzby: "What is the opinion of the church!" Although the local church had a very poor relationship with the Mammoth Dynasty, it was okay with the noble council. Aren't the parish leaders going to be neutral this time? ”

"This time, even if we want to remain neutral, we can't do it." Pastor Gatsby gritted his teeth as he spoke, "Do you know why we haven't been able to contact Walkerson City?" Those damned aristocratic council troops have ransacked our temple in the city. ”
