Don't call me evil god

Chapter 915 Nowen’s New Idea
finally.

The team that disguised their identities and went to the deep area to conduct a secret investigation had a huge number of nearly a hundred people.

Hugo Seavey was tasked with playing the role of a slave trader, and he would be the team's apparent "manager".

Pete, Gail and Dolan pretended to be Hugo's men.

Guys like Brandon, Lancelot, and Sam, who looked like good fighters, served as guards for the caravan.

They are real guards.

No need to act.

After all, in dangerous places like the Deep Region, force often works faster than reason.

Hugo was so wealthy that he temporarily rented the Jinchao Pofeng for a special transport line.

On the way to Stone Castle by airship, everyone gradually talked about the changes that took place in the Kingdom of Reyak after the monster red tide.

"You know, a big thing happened in the capital."

"A group of crazy cultists actually dared to hold a sacrificial summoning ceremony in the Sanctuary Plains!"

"The source of the sacrifices turned out to be prisoners detained and imprisoned by the Glorious God Cult in recent years!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, not only is Harris Eugene a scum who has betrayed the Glorious Faith, there must be many people within the Glorious Faith who have problems as well, they just haven't been discovered yet!"

Someone brought up the topic.

Immediately, someone started talking about it.

"I heard that when the ritual broke out, the capital's garrison and the Griffin Knights were suddenly strengthened, which allowed them to quickly destroy the ritual?"

"Stupid! It's not that it was suddenly strengthened, it's definitely the royal family's trump card!"

Some people said it with great confidence and in an extremely firm tone.

"The royal capital of Starosh has been prosperous for thousands of years. There must be some hidden tricks. No matter what dangers they encounter, the royal family will definitely use their trump cards to solve them!"

"Don't underestimate the royal family, they have a very deep foundation!"

"Don't forget, when the truth about the Gilded Club was exposed, His Majesty the King did not hesitate to take out a mountain of gold to replace the assets that originally belonged to Rune Monger and make up for the losses caused by the Gilded Club to the people."

"Don't you have enough accumulation to get so much gold?"

This statement was quickly recognized by most believers.

Although the sacrificial summoning ceremony that occurred in the Sanctuary Plain was stopped in time and the cultists were prevented from summoning truly dangerous super-class monsters, it was undoubtedly another scandal that seriously damaged the reputation of the Glowing God Cult.

Harris Eugene's downfall caused ordinary people who once believed devoutly in the God of Light to begin to distrust the church.

God knows what kind of dirty things those glorious priests who appear so dignified and sacred in public may do in secret!
Once doubt arises.

It will be difficult to make up for it.

Archbishop Eugene's scandal brought about a sea change that swept across the Kingdom of Reyak.

King Kenredin first announced with an extremely tough attitude that he had taken over the command of the Crusaders of the Church of Light.

The future Crusaders will still be trained and educated by the Cult of the Light, but the power of command will be in the hands of the royal family.

Immediately afterwards, a series of Radiant Priests related to Harris Eugene, especially those nominated for promotion by him, were all suspended without exception.

These people will need to wait for a review organized by the royal family to decide whether they can return to their original duties and work.

Especially Archbishop Eugene's eldest son, Rayyank Eugene.

Just over half a year after taking office as bishop of Green Harbor, he received the tragic news that he was dismissed and summoned to Starosh for investigation as soon as possible.

Rayyank Eugene is missing.

This appearance of having something to hide and fleeing for fear of crime has become another scandal that has recently emerged in the Church of Radiance.

No need to worry if you have too many debts, no need to worry if you have too many lice.

Perhaps because there had been too much trouble in the Church of Radiance in recent times, the disappearance of Rayank Eugene did not even cause much of a stir in the kingdom. The matter was merely concluded when a wanted warrant for him was sent to various parts of the continent.

As for how the sacrificial summoning ceremony of the cult organization was disrupted.

There are very few who know the truth.

Because the news about Prince Fradin using the "core" in the basement of the Archmage's Mage Tower was kept strictly confidential.

Nowen also has great interest and curiosity in this.

It's no surprise that the Mokred royal family also has a core component of the Holy Altar of Creation.

Those cultists of the Church of Supreme Truth are using those core components like wholesale!
It is also a long-standing existence that has been passed down from the old days to the present day. If someone says that the Mokred royal family doesn’t have something similar in their hands, Nowen will be the first one to disbelieve it!
What Novan found interesting was:
Before this, Nowen had always believed that the various "cores" related to the Holy Altar of Creation might have accidentally flowed into the mortal dimension due to a malfunction of the Holy Altar of Creation, and then been discovered by mortals.

But after gaining a deeper understanding of this world.

Noven discovered that the situation was not that simple.

There are many different kinds of "core" components.

Some were found by people who believed in evil gods and used them in rather evil ways.

For example, the illusion core that almost completely contaminated Resti, the shaping core and punishment core used to build the "messenger" in the stone fortress creation altar to brainwash and control the dwarves, and the positioning core found in Green Port.

But some core components are not.

For example, the super-level divine miracle of the [Glory of the Past] barrier was actually achieved with the help of the power of the [Barrier Core], and this core was revered as a sacred object by the dragons.

There is also the [Recruiting Core] that belongs to the royal family of Mokred.

They clearly knew exactly how to use it!
Especially when Prince Fradin used the conscription core, Nowen, who was paying attention to the situation, also noticed the series of mysterious messages.

This made Nowen unable to help but come up with a new and bold guess:

"perhaps……"

"Some were born from the core of the Holy Altar of Creation. Were they originally meant to be used by mortals?"

"That Creator, He personally prepared something that surpassed the limits of mortal power, and then gave it to mortals as a trump card?"

“…But why did He do this?”

Norman pondered for a long time but still had no clue.

This new conjecture was consistent with the phenomena he observed in the mortal dimension.

But it is difficult to find a suitable reason to explain the intention of the Creator!
He was clearly powerful enough to create gods who wielded extraordinary powers, and he personally shaped a world in which gods and divine arts existed.

As a result, He gave mortals some "trump cards" that almost made them on par with the gods.

"Does He want mortals to have firm faith and pray to the gods devoutly? Or does He want them to stop relying on the gods and learn to be self-reliant?"

“Isn’t this contradictory?”
