Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 526 Rumors spread
Because of official supervision, the reports of these reporters are generally relatively objective.

Although there are still some contents with personal subjective emotions, it basically maintains a relatively fair attitude and reports the whole process of the incident carefully and in detail.

People who read newspapers can basically know what happened through these reports, and can also understand what the authorities have done.

I just don’t know whether some people have ulterior motives or really didn’t understand the report, so outrageous rumors such as “the Earl of the North indulges in heresy,” “the royal family tries to kill people to silence them,” and “the plague has spread” began to spread in Chenoberg.

This made Perfect feel both amused and helpless. She had no idea how these outrageous rumors came about.

But no matter what, what needs to be dealt with must be dealt with. She immediately ordered the intelligence department in the North to conduct a thorough investigation into the source of the rumor and arrest those who spread the rumor.

The efficiency of the Northern Intelligence Department is naturally not comparable to those slow-moving guys in the Military Intelligence Department. Within a few days, many people were thrown into jail for spreading rumors.

This suddenly turned the public opinion in Chernoborg into a situation where the Northern Lords restricted people's freedom of speech and tried to cover up the truth regardless of facts.

There is no doubt that if Perfecto still cannot see at this point that someone is deliberately instigating this behind the scenes, she will have lived in vain.

Faced with this situation, Perfect didn't waste any words and directly issued a new decree declaring the act of spreading rumors illegal and that it would be severely punished. He then sent out self-disciplined knights to search the entire city.

Under Perfectoct's iron-fisted approach, the man behind the scenes soon surfaced.

"I really didn't expect that there would be people who would give up being imperial nobles and serve as dogs for those heretical evil gods." In the interrogation room, Perfect looked at the people captured by the Self-Discipline Knights with helplessness and regret on his face.

The person in front of her was an heir of the Collins family, one of the three great dukes of the empire. He had no right to inherit the title of duke, but had the title of baron, which made him a formal and respectable nobleman.

Such a person can undoubtedly be said to be of noble status and noble blood, and he also has a bright future within the empire.

Although the power of the Collins family has declined slightly because the Duke of Gloucester holds the seat of Speaker of the Council of Nobles, it is still one of the three great dukes of the empire, and his family has great influence and reputation in the entire Victoria Empire.

Even if the children of the family are only adopted, they can still get a good position in the empire and live a luxurious and affluent life compared to ordinary nobles.

"What do you know? How can the blessing of God be compared to that of ordinary people?" Although the other party had been tortured and was tightly tied to a chair with shackles, there was still disdain and contempt on his face.

It was as if he was the almighty god himself, not just the other party's dog.

In response, Perfect simply shrugged his shoulders and responded nonchalantly: "If you call the pollution of the gods' divinity a blessing, and think that being a dog for the gods is more noble than mortals, then I really don't understand, because humans cannot understand why dogs think they are nobler than humans."

Perfecto's words did not irritate the other party; he just turned his head away with disdain.

Perfect didn't care about this man's attitude. She didn't really want to ask anything. She just wanted to see who was willing to be a dog for the gods instead of being a superior person. But Perfect still asked him, "In Victoria, the Collins family is already a top wealthy and powerful family. Although you don't have the right to inherit the title of Duke, as the heir of the family, you still have the title of Baron and enjoy the various benefits brought by the Collins family name.

There is nothing wrong with saying that you are the superior person in the Victoria Empire.

And if you join the evil cult, when the old gods really come, you will be just a middle or lower level member of the cult. Even if you can get the so-called blessing, you may not be able to have the current status and enjoyment.

So why bother? Are you really seeking the blessing of the evil god? Or do you believe in the gods from the bottom of your heart? Tell me, I am very curious. "

Perfect was indeed very curious. She didn't quite understand what these people were thinking. After all, what kind of good person would give up a good life and become a dog for others?

"How can you understand the greatness of the gods? The real gods are not the false gods worshipped by the church. The blessings of the gods are simply not something that people like you can understand!" There is no doubt that if you want to break a fanatic's defense, questioning his beliefs is the most effective way. Before Perfecto began to attack his beliefs, the man was already a little restless and pulled the chains on his body.

Looking at the guy in front of him who looked like a violent beast, Perfect felt helpless. After pressing his forehead, he ordered someone to bring a mirror and snapped his fingers.

"If the great blessing you are talking about is to become like this, neither human nor ghost, I really can't understand it." Perfect said, then turned and left the interrogation room.

Behind her, the evil god's believer, who finally saw his own appearance clearly in the mirror, let out a roar of despair.

He did receive the blessing of the old gods, but in Perfecto's understanding, this blessing was more like a mutation of the body caused by radiation.

This kind of mutation will make the blessed people closer in physical appearance to the gods they believe in. If the gods are in human form or closer to human form, then this kind of mutation is not so difficult to deal with. At most, they will have a few more parts on their bodies, and there will not be any major physical mutations.

As for whether there is a second heart or an extra mouth under the human appearance, that is something that can be discussed.

But most of the old gods have basically nothing to do with human form, and quite a few of them look very abstract.

For example, the god worshipped by this unfortunate fellow, although his name sounds nice, being the God of Ocean Wealth, but in the records of the church, the official name of this god is the Greedy Sea God.

Its mission is to plunder and rob. To put it simply, it is a big pirate.

But this is not the point. There are people who believe in this kind of bandit god, and there are even many people who follow this kind of bandit culture.

The real key point is that the appearance of this greedy sea god is completely that of a deep-sea marine creature. The whole god looks more like a giant scabby monster, or the kind of scabby monster with eighteen octopus tentacles growing on its lower body.
