Xiling Empire

Chapter 1,113 Start of Construction

This world now has a new name. Sandora feels that since it is the capital of the Fifteenth Heaven District of the old empire (actually a fragment of the capital) and the hometown of Pandora and the others, this universe cannot be named with a simple number. , it should have its own name like Avalon and Shadow Space. After a short discussion, we decided to name this small universe with a diameter of one light-year as "Xinxiang".

This name is not very rare. In the imperial database, there are at least hundreds of place names called Xinxiang in the macro world. But for this lost and recovered territory, the word "Xinxiang" has an extraordinary meaning—— This is the only sounding name we found after weeding out more than a hundred weird strings...

Well, we shouldn't let Qianqian participate in the naming activity.

Xinxiang will become a "district" of the imperial capital like Avalon, and the mortal world here will serve as an observation station and testing ground for the empire's deification phenomenon. This may sound a bit weird, but it feels like the people here It will be treated as a test subject, but in fact the situation is not that serious. Everything is an inevitable process: the next divine individual will inevitably appear among the Xiling apostles, so we will definitely need to know what this "new god" has. Power, whether it is willing or not, this "new god" will inevitably produce information disturbance force, that is, the power of faith and divine grace. As long as the "new god" comes into contact with the mortal world, religion will inevitably arise. Then religion has arisen, can we? Why don't you send an observer over to check on the situation? Originally before I decided to mount this world into shadow space. We planned that if a "new god" appeared, we would let the latter randomly select audiences in the macro world to establish a belief system. Now we are just putting this world that will be merged into the capital of the empire as the first priority in religious planning. , rather than a testing ground, it is actually just a ready-made observation station.

Even Sakina and Sona didn't show any awkwardness after hearing these plans of mine - of course another important reason is that they probably couldn't understand what I was talking about...

A lot has happened to many people in the mother continent these past few days, and perhaps it has been an even more stressful few days for the rulers in various regions of the world. All because of the news of "the return of the Kingdom of God" that suddenly spread throughout the world.

In the southern region, a famous barren land on the continent, a new sect claiming to believe in the Crow God suddenly appeared. This matter had been spread everywhere a few days ago. Unlike most worlds at the feudal civilization level, in On the mother continent, the transmission of information is not as slow as we imagined. This world has a communication network based on magic technology and relatively developed media channels. Even ordinary people can know recent events inside and outside the kingdom through a folk media similar to newspapers and a magic crystal announcement device in the center of the city. People are no strangers to the Crow God Sect, a new religion that suddenly flourished in a barren land. In the desolate south, it is difficult for people to obtain any material comfort, so this is also where various new small religions emerge in endlessly. However, the speed of the development of the Crow God Sect and the strength displayed are a bit surprising. And now, This sect made an even more surprising move: they sent messengers to the world. These missionaries wearing black feathered robes appeared instantly in every inhabited place in the world as if they fell from the sky. Publicly promote the message of "the return of the Kingdom of God." These missionaries came and went without a trace, as if they had mastered space teleportation technology that even powerful professional mages could not easily use. It is common to see a missionary preaching at the border of the kingdom in the morning, but then appearing in the capital of the kingdom in the afternoon. Stand in front of the king's palace and ask for an audience.

Another group of "missionaries" also appeared all over the world at the same time. Compared with the Crow God Sect, which has been around for some time and is obviously larger in scale, the movement of this second group of missionaries does not seem to be that big, but their appearance has a great impact on the world. The impact on ordinary people in this world is even more obvious. They are the "Dragon God Sect" that was suddenly organized recently and not many people know about it.

Unlike the Crow God Cult, which has a complex composition, all believers in the Dragon God Cult have only one race, and that is half-dragon people - some remote places even still call them lizard people - these were originally located at the lower level of various intelligent races on the mainland. Even the lycanthropes who were confused with those subhuman races appeared in various parts of the world together with the missionaries of the Crow God Cult, preaching the prophecies about the return of the Kingdom of God. The "Dragon Arrival" event that happened in Sentu has spread throughout most of the world, but many people are still doubtful that the half-dragon people really have dragon blood. As soon as the half-dragon people who claim to be the people of the Dragon God appear. , attracted unprecedented attention - especially the news that kept coming from all over the world that a half-dragon suddenly let out a dragon roar when facing the questioning crowd, and even transformed into a giant dragon, causing turmoil that even exceeded The message itself of “the return of the Kingdom of God.”

The sudden and dramatic actions of the two emerging sects certainly caused a lot of uproar - the first to bear the brunt were the common people.

No matter which world they are in, the civilian class is always easy to be influenced. Their number and complexity determine that this group of people can be quickly pushed by new information that suddenly appears. As long as there is a group of people who believe it, there will be Countless groups of people follow blindly.

The missionaries of the Crow God Sect are not actually clever "agitators". Their predecessors may have been farmers with their backs turned to the sky, or coolies digging stones in the mines. They are absolutely powerful in using language and the power of public opinion to deceive people. They are not as good as the monks of other sects who specialize in this way, but they have genuine divine power. In this world where there are many religions and all kinds of magical activities emerge in an endless stream, even playing tricks on the street can fool a large group of people. , not to mention these Crow God priests who fly into the sky and appear to be omnipotent. They will suddenly appear high in the city, carrying thunder and lightning and storms brought by magical prayers, appearing in front of the civilians as if the messengers of the gods have really arrived, loudly Promote the news that "the Kingdom of God is about to come, the gods will close part of the "Lost World", and a new order is about to be established." If this cannot produce sufficient publicity effect, then there is no more effective publicity method. The Dragon God Missionary's actions were even simpler. When a giant dragon suddenly landed on the city wall and loudly ordered everyone to immediately stop exploring the lost world, I'm afraid no one would dare to ignore such a warning, right?

Of course, there will be some people who ignore this warning, and some people even think that these missionaries are playing tricks just to expand the influence of their own sect - there will be such bold and stubborn people wherever they go. But in fact, the ideas of these people are meaningless now: Alleria has closed the transmission channels of each lost world one by one, and 80% of the channels from the mother continent to the lost world have now become One-way teleportation only allows people to evacuate from the opposite side of the passage, and no longer allows new people to enter the lost world. After all, the mission of those missionaries is not to use their own power to end exploration activities around the world, but to give a warning to the world. Use vaccinations to avoid future panic incidents.

So with the propaganda of these "messengers of God" and the gradual closure of the lost world, the exploration activities of the people of the mother continent into the lost world came to a complete halt almost immediately. And there are constantly teams of explorers stranded in the lost world returning to the mother continent (communication between the lost world and the mother continent is still open. And in some lost worlds that cannot be notified, the Dragon God Sect and the Crow God Sect have also specially sent out missionaries to evacuate people). As mentioned before, explorers are a group of very superstitious people. They attach great importance to various signs before departure. There is so much movement in the world now. In the spirit of preferring to believe it A mentality that cannot be trusted. Most of these explorers are not willing to stay outside anymore. And even if there are some who are really reluctant to leave...well, they can't defeat those missionaries who are always ready to "come to me", right?

It is said that the first day of light. Those missionaries from the Crow God Sect who were born with mud legs knocked out thousands of people and brought back thousands of people. The Dragon God Sect was slightly better. After all, their pope was an explorer. The explorer they forcibly brought back was not knocked unconscious, but was just tied up...

And after these missionaries in the name of God spread the news of the return of the Kingdom of God all over the world and released miracles everywhere, causing a big wave among the people, the managers of the principalities and the orthodox churches in the mother continent finally reacted and A range of responses have begun - the situation varies from place to place.

In most places, the authorities reacted as we expected, making suppression of social unrest their top priority, and began to find ways to identify the origins of those missionaries - this source is easy to check, all missionaries are from In the south, the Crow God Sect has never been a secret sect, and the entire half-dragon race has been migrating to the south with great fanfare for about half a month. However, when the next step was taken after finding the source of the missionaries, the local authorities made a mistake. Confused, because they could not imagine the motive of these religious figures to organize such a joint activity around the world: missionaries preached about the return of the Kingdom of God, but did not mention that this event would lead to the end of the world or other gimmicks (this It is a common tactic used by many illegal sects to develop believers), and there is no idea of ​​using this momentum to expand the power of the church. All missionaries seem to be really just informing about this matter, transmitting from one city to another, causing enough They left after receiving attention, and even refused to accept food and donations from some people. There is only one reason to explain this: what they said is true.

But even so, many operatives still encountered trouble because there was too much movement, and Lilina asked them to "be high-profile, even if it's high-profile, God will help you solve problems if you have any problems." These missionaries were lively every time they took action. Just like during the holidays, many local authorities couldn't bear the disturbance and began to try to arrest, or at least expel, these "mysterious people". Then many unexpected situations happened to the former——

Whether they are Crow God believers or Dragon God envoys, they completely ignore "human justice"!

It is completely ignored, because all action personnel have temporary god-given talismans. These talismans temporarily allow them to have the status of "god-side executors". Therefore, all rulings and actions made by human justice against them are directly deleted. , they are invulnerable and ignore any physical and non-physical obstacles. They walked directly through the phalanx composed of thousands of city guards like phantoms, loudly announcing the timetable for the return of the Kingdom of God as they walked; they smiled under the military-level magic bombing, and continued to take photos after the explosions were over. Following the evacuation plan formulated by Lin Nian Shen; they even directly mapped their own figures into the king's retina. Spread the word about world change. Before setting off, Vanilla and Sona each gave their envoys instructions for their actions: embody the magnanimity of the servants of God. As long as they did not violate the laws of God, the servants of God would ignore human justice, so they really ignored all the mundane things directed at them. attack……

Such a thing caused an uproar, and it was an uproar all over the world. The rulers of the world and the "orthodox sects" everywhere finally realized that something was wrong, and they felt that they might have met the real "god". But soon, the "Orthodox" themselves joined in the propaganda. This was the third day of large-scale missionary operations from the south. Established churches all over the world also announced that they had received revelations because of what they said. Various ancient spirits and fantasy gods worshiped suddenly appeared one after another, telling believers around the world in an unprecedented direct way. What the Crow God Cultists and Dragon God Cultists preach is true.

If those messy churches could communicate, they would discover a strange phenomenon: no matter which church enshrines the ancient spirit. I have a strange catchphrase in my speech lately. That is "For the Empire"...

These ancient spirits have actually gradually come under our control.

As I said before, this world has two most distinctive characteristics. One is naturally the "lost world" that is closely related to people's lives and has become a part of the civilization of the mother continent. The second is the various sects that exist throughout the mother continent and the ancient spirits they believe in. In this world, there are about hundreds of religions or sects that coexist in a delicate state of balance. The core of what these sects worship or preach are basically ancient spirits. Ancient spirits are those with a long history. A man of great power and mysterious but tangible wisdom. They may be ancient beasts, or they may be some kind of physical natural phenomenon (the ancient spirit followed by the Storm Cult in the northern mountains is a thunder hurricane that never dissipates). The little crow was also mistaken for an ancient spirit (Vanilla calls her the spirit of nature). In this way, we may have a clearer understanding of the "ancient spirit phenomenon" on the mother continent. These ancient spirits possess powers that are obviously not at the same level as the mortal creatures of the mother continent, so the mortals of the mother continent regard them as gods.

At the same time, Alleria also said before that among the 301 commanders on the mysterious side of the old empire, apart from her, the remaining 300 people have been stored in this world in the form of underlying data, and among them Most of them are hidden in human beliefs and various religious stories on the mother continent. In other words, these imperial commanders have inexplicable connections with the "ancient spirits" all over the mother continent. Ancient spirits are not imperial commanders. , but their generation mechanism is actually various phenomena caused by the overflow of the world's underlying data, just like the second body extended by the latter. Since the imperial commanders sleeping in this world are all from the mysterious side, what they extend are ancient spirits. If the commanders from the technological side are sleeping here, then the extension should be black technology, and if Lilina is knocked unconscious If it is stuffed into the bottom of the world, it is estimated that the entire mother continent will become...well, it will become a mosaic...

The ancient spirits themselves actually have no independent consciousness. Their "consciousness" is derived from the imperial officers who have dissociated themselves. In the past years, because their mother bodies were all in a state of sleep, all the ancient spirits in the mother continent were chaotic - mortals thought this was a sign of the moodiness of the gods, but in fact it was because they were all fainted. But now, the imperial officers in the world's underlying data are gradually waking up, and the ancient spirits are naturally slowly changing from a state of chaos to awakening, and are siding with the empire.

The missionaries of the Crow God and the Dragon God are running around the world to gain reputation. This is all Lilina's concern. As for us, in fact, we have already started the home star activation process at the same time as the first batch of missionaries set off. .

The mother planet has been dormant for more than 70,000 years and is still fragmented by the impact. It is very troublesome to completely restart the system. It is precisely because this work cannot be completed in a day or two. We have a lot of free time on our hands. Only then did we decide to let those missionaries run around the world to spread propaganda, instead of just letting Little Crow and Lin perform miracles all over the world. Although the latter seems to be convenient and fast, it is not as well publicized as the former, and the momentum does not seem to be big enough. Lilina attaches great importance to public opinion tools, and she just wants to take this opportunity to expand the influence of the Crow God Sect: there is no need to deliberately recruit Believers, as long as the changes in various lost worlds are transmitted back to the mother continent, her propaganda plan will be a great success. As for the Dragon God Sect... Sakina and Sona are obviously not as experienced as Lilina. They only followed the latter's reminder. These two half-dragon girls must become qualified spiritual leaders, and long way to go.

The busiest people these days are Alleria, besides Lilina. Lilina is busy with her religious career, and Alleria is the only one among us who knows how to activate the mother planet. Until now, the concepts have been separated. The state can only be relieved in "Xinxiang". Outside of "Xinxiang", the conceptual separation is still continuing. Therefore, Alaya also feels unable to start with things like the Tower of the Sky and the Garden of Forgotten (even though those things are hers). (designed and built back then), the burden could only be placed on Alleria.

But Alleria herself doesn't seem to care about these complicated tasks, or simply enjoys them. The floating luminous body never shows any expression, but I think I do feel that she is full of energy. A cheerful mood, one that was particularly evident after the world's ancient spirits responded to our commands for the first time two days ago.

"After being abandoned for 70,000 years, now I can finally serve the empire again and regain the value of my work. Isn't this a very happy thing?" Faced with the question I accidentally raised, Alleria said happily, Then he mentioned another thing, "The giant dragon... Over there in the Kingdom of God space, the City of Angels has been released. Do you want to go and see it?"
