Don't call me evil god

Chapter 907 Prove strength
The more he investigated the traces of these evil believers, the more Pete felt something was wrong.

Those so-called "cultists" by most people are nothing more than small fry.

They may not have mastered the real method of praying for blessings from the evil god.

Including those members of the Church of the Supreme Truth whom they had arrested earlier.

no doubt.

They are just "peripheral cannon fodder".

In a sense, their role is not much different from that of Harris Eugene. They are just a group of consumables that can be called upon at any time and discarded after use.

The gray dwarf "envoy" never cared about the life and death of the dwarves she converted and other victims.

In order to achieve her goal, she can give up all these at any time.

Annabelle has similar characteristics.

They hide in the deep regions, places where few humans go, and use "collaborators" and "spokespersons" of their own choice to act on their behalf to complete their plans, or - missions!
Pete felt that they were actively entering a huge invisible vortex.

The deeper you go, the more dangerous it is.

At first, it was just a few cultists who were ready to take action.

Later it evolved into a disaster affecting an area and a city.

The level they are now exposed to and exploring has gradually reached the point of sweeping the entire world.

……

After three opportunities to ask, the green light in Harris Eugene's eyes gradually went out.

Van Crowe's right hand turned back into a human form and nodded to Miranda, one of the three Petes.

Miranda had a confused expression, not knowing why the other party was signaling to her.

However, what Van Croft took out from his [Secret Pocket] immediately attracted Miranda's attention.

It was a round sphere emitting brilliant golden light.

Barrier core!

Both Harris and Van Croft have used it to affect the [Past Glory] barrier!
"This thing belongs to the dragon clan," Van Croft Fafnir said expressionlessly, "Hundreds of years ago, our master, the ancient dragon king Xiu, lent this holy object to the heir of Tromisos, and the two parties made an agreement at that time."

"Only the heir of Tromisos can use it in a fixed location and in an agreed manner."

"If this agreement is violated, it means that the heir of Trommissus is no longer suitable to hold it, and the dragon clan has the right to take it back."

"Now, I will execute the price of breaking the agreement on behalf of my master."

"It will be returned to the Dragon's Lair for safekeeping."

Miranda was anxious when she saw this: "Sir...Watcher..."

Because she had received guidance from Nowen, she knew the function of the barrier core!
The annual monster red tide and the gap that appears on the [Past Glory] barrier are actually related to this barrier core.

As the Cult of the Light once explained, this barrier fluctuation that lasted for several days was to allow it to recover enough divine power to support its operation for the next full year.

In fact, the so-called fluctuations are not natural phenomena, but human-induced.

Every Radiant Pope or Archbishop will hold a ceremony in the Radiant Holy Land to complete all of this when the monster red tide arrives.

If this thing is taken back by the dragon, what should be done with future rituals?
"Miranda Warren."

"Just be patient."

Van Crowe rushed in and stopped Miranda from speaking.

"I don't deny that the Kingdom of Reyak needs the help of the holy relics to maintain the [Past Glory] barrier."

"But the Church of Radiance founded by Trommissus is no longer trustworthy. Even the secrets of the holy relics have been leaked to the dangerous believers of the evil god."

"The dragons can't risk leaving the holy relic there any longer."

"The dragon clan needs a human who is qualified to take on the responsibility of being the successor of Trommissus. He needs to prove that he has enough strength."

"It's not just the strength to use the relic, it's also the strength to protect it." "Otherwise."

"What if the holy relic is left here and is stolen by the evil god believers?"

Miranda was speechless.

Van Croft continued, "If you want to prove that you have the strength to keep the holy relics."

"Take with you the achievements you believe are sufficient to prove your qualifications and head to the Frostfire Plateau."

"We will be waiting there for your arrival."

……

Van Cleot Fafnir left.

But he left everyone with a difficult test.

Prove your strength.

"I think I know what Mr. Watcher means by proving one's strength."

Kenredin thought for a while and spoke solemnly to the three of them.

"According to the dragon's prophecy, there is a source of chaos in the deep region, and it will soon become a paradise for monsters."

"Find out what happened there and find a way to stop those cultists from doing what they did."

"If you can do these, I think it should be enough to prove that you are qualified enough!"

"As you can see."

"The impact that Harris and the cultists have had on the kingdom is enormous. I need to return to the capital as soon as possible to take charge of the overall situation. Whether it is the trial and execution of Harris, or the arrangements for the aftermath, I must personally handle all of these one by one."

"Mr. Warden chose you. He believes that you will prove yourself strong enough to keep the holy relic."

"In that case, I am willing to believe you."

"Please organize an action team as soon as possible and start investigating the Deep Region!"

Miranda was silent for a moment, then suddenly said something without beginning or ending:
"So the coming of the God of Light actually didn't solve anything."

Pete's eyes suddenly widened.

He didn't expect that such words would come out of Miranda's mouth.

Pete understood what Miranda meant.

In the dark ages thousands of years ago, the coming of the God of Light ushered in a new era of glory, dispelling evil, isolating the void, and bringing hope to mortals.

During this nearly long period of time, people chanted the name of God Navarre together, thanking Him for His protection and blessings. Some devout believers even shouted slogans like "He will drive the void and evil out of this world forever."

But after seeing the truth of the Millennium Covenant.

Pete realized.

The God of Light did not actually drive out evil.

He is not nearly as powerful as people imagine.

His appearance was a miracle created by a mortal body, and true evil has never disappeared.

Evil just lies dormant.

They are quietly waiting for an opportunity to come.

"I think," Pete pondered for a moment and whispered to Miranda, "Perhaps over the past thousands of years, because of the existence of the God of Light, He has never given guidance to His believers like the gods of the old days, which has gradually caused everyone to develop a bad habit."

"You can give any problem to Navarre. He will handle everything. As long as He exists, the enemies of the void will not be able to surpass [Past Glory] even half a step."

"But the reality is..."
