Old Gods, Rapid-Fire Guns, and Prohibition

Chapter 77 [The Truth of History]

Everything about the ascetic who was suspected to be Saint Quanti was becoming clearer.

His person becomes more real and visible, and the environment around him is also changing.

Those rotten and old houses dripping with sticky green water have become lively again.

They have returned to the same appearance as when they were first built, with all the bricks and tiles brand new.

And beneath these brand new buildings, some simply dressed indigenous people are busy working.

When they saw Saint Quanti passing by, they greeted him one after another. Saint Quanti responded one by one, and sometimes stopped to chat.

It can be seen that these indigenous people are full of respect for Saint Quanti, and even have a sense of worship for him.

This should be the situation when San Quang Ti was first built.

Ethan guessed.

Then, these vivid images came to an abrupt end.

Everything returned to silence.

Only the ball of light extending from the 'Name of the True God' was shining.

What does all this mean?

Ethan fell into deep thought.

It was the first time he encountered such a situation. What was split out of the 'name of the true God' was not the real name, but an illusion.

He went to observe other people.

Neither Anya nor Huoyan seemed to notice any changes in their surroundings.

That was a scene that only he could see.

The current speculation is that by collecting more of the green aura, this light spot can continue to grow and more things can be seen.

Then, find the treasure of San Quanti?
From the parchment book, we know that Saint Quanti has something that the Sun God Cult is extremely eager to obtain.

However, when Ethan looked at the light spot, he always felt that what he could get was far more than just an illusion.

Continue to look through the parchment book.

Ethan saw something completely different from the history he knew.

Before coming here, Ethan had read a lot of historical materials about the northern part of the kingdom.

The information says that the pioneers of the kingdom, with their lives and blood, worked tirelessly and arduously to open up the entire northern territory of the kingdom.

Judging from the parchment book, the Sun God Cult actually made great efforts in the development of the northern part of the kingdom.

In fact, they might be the main force.

Because one of the passages reads:

“…In the solar calendar, the year is three thousand four hundred and twenty-six, the month of sunrise is nine days.

At the meeting, Bishop Dominic rejected my plan for a comprehensive encirclement of San Quanti, because he pointed out that the church has suffered heavy losses in the process of expanding eastward and is under enormous pressure. The pioneering army has become too powerful to be eliminated, and we cannot give them the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and become more powerful.

The stripping of Saint Quanti’s sainthood was naturally rejected.

Now is a sensitive period. If we openly fall out with Sheng Kuangti, it may cause him to turn to the Kaituo Army, not to mention that he still has that thing in his hand.

The pioneer army must not know this secret.

I cannot accept this result..."

The New World United Development Army, whose full name is the New World United Development Army, is the predecessor of the kingdom.

Ethan had never understood why religious forces were so weak in the kingdom, but from this diary, he seemed to have gotten a glimpse of the reason.

The subsequent contents of the diary verified Ethan's speculation.

In subsequent diaries, the conflict between the kingdom and the church became increasingly acute, until friction led to war.

In the end, the church suffered a crushing defeat. The last entry in the parchment book reads:
"…In the solar calendar, three thousand four hundred and thirty-four, the month of sunset, the thirteenth day.

The sun has really set.

We were completely defeated. The Knights were completely routed on the front battlefield, and Bishop Dominic was beheaded on the spot.

Our plans at sea also fell through.

Obviously, not all the people in the cathedral were supportive.

His Royal Highness the Prince has arrived at his loyal new world, and those damned peasants have obtained the legitimacy and are about to establish a country.

I have to leave.

Before leaving, I don't know if it can be considered good news. Although Saint Quanti did not hand over the thing in the end and sided with those peasants in the war, he wrote a letter. He swore with his faith that after his death, he would completely seal the thing in the place where he built everything, and no one would discover the existence of the thing.

We have to believe him, believe that he is still a believer, even if his beliefs are heretical.

everything is over.

What does the future hold for the Church?"

Seal the place where he built everything.

No wonder...Rio Guang wanted to walk towards the deepest church at the beginning.

Isn’t the place where San Quanti built everything the church?
He started with the church and built up the entire city.

It is unknown who wrote the diary in this parchment book, maybe it was written by Nikko's ancestor.

But what exactly is that thing?
----------

Compared to Ethan and his team who were like on a picnic, the situation of the other two teams was much more miserable.

In addition to the ancient members who died, the competition for food also led to new deaths.

This is the case with the team that George and Dani are on.

The only person in their group who had any food was the man they mistook for Ethan.

So they took the opportunity to mobilize the others, killed him, and stole his food.

Although I killed the wrong person, at least I have something to eat.

At this moment they were looking for a place to rest and eat.

As the leader of the team, their captain, the Shadow King Level 3 True Namer, codenamed Puppet Master, was eating the most food.

His shadow lurks beside him, ready to strike at any moment.

Just as he was enjoying his meal, a strong wind suddenly blew in from a corner.

When he looked over, he saw that it was not a strong wind at all, but two men like wild beasts rushing towards him.

He immediately launched his own shadow counterattack.

However, his ghostly shadow was torn apart by a burst of silver light, and then the two men approached him and beat him to death.

The attack was so fast that it took no more than a minute.

When the puppeteer's body fell to the ground, everyone in the audience was shocked.

"You...you are Clay?" Just when everyone was scared, George recognized one of the two men.

Although at this time, both of them were covered in sticky green water, looking like ancient people.

But there was still some humanity in their eyes, and George felt familiar with the face of one of them.

"Who are you?" Clay looked at him.

"I'm George! George from the Evans family. We are here to save you! By the way, Ethan is here too!" George didn't care anymore and pulled off the mask, revealing his face.

Over there, the man with Clay also looked at George when he heard the name Ethan.

It was Vincent.

And at this moment, the bell rang again.
