"But if a body is found, the blasphemer must be handed over to the church."
The village statue is not looked after by the church. Generally speaking, churches are built in cities at the municipal level and above. After all, the amount of money required to build a church in a township is definitely not a small amount, so it is prohibited.
When the construction team they brought was preparing to dismantle the statue, a passing lady noticed their movements and immediately became furious:
"What are you doing!!!"
"God damn it! Come quickly, folks! Someone is tearing down our idol! Ouch! Come quickly!!!"
'Where is it? Where is it?'
'You bastards, believe it or not, we will blow you up with firecrackers!!!'
A large group of villagers gathered around, holding hoes, sickles, forks, shovels and other farm tools. Behind them followed a group of people holding various guns, all of them shouting loudly with excited expressions.
The police officers who followed felt their scalps tingling when they saw this scene, but they quickly formed a human wall with their bodies to keep the people out.
The team leader led his team members to the front to negotiate with the old man in the lead. Just as Lister was about to catch up, Fanny on the side stopped him. When he turned his head, her pink lips were slightly pursed and she pointed in a certain direction.
Lister looked in the direction indicated and saw that outside a residential building on a small hill not far away, a group of strong young men were grunting and pushing two half-new 75 howitzers out of the house to secure them. There were also a few sturdy men carrying old-fashioned light mortars.
After seeing clearly, Liszt's forehead suddenly broke out into sweat and he was sweating all over on the spot: "No, isn't this village a bit too fierce...too fierce?"
According to the urban integration construction policy everywhere, most cities have independent and autonomous small industrial systems, which naturally include military aspects...
In addition to the military training of young and middle-aged men in the wartime system, they not only have guns but also know how to use them...
In other words, this village is indeed poor. The wealthier ones with better-maintained small industrial systems can produce light tanks. At most, the engine may run a little slower, but they can definitely produce 75mm gun barrels and shells.
Even so, the power of these two 75mm Truths is still not discounted. If there is any disagreement, a 75mm shell will be fired at you.
The team leader's mouth twitched when he saw these guys doing this. After much persuasion, an old man went to scold the strong young men to turn the gun barrel to prevent accidental firing and send them away.
However, they firmly disagreed with the removal of the statues. Even if Fanny spoke up as a representative of the church, it would be useless. They had never seen it, didn't understand it, and didn't want to understand it.
Anyway, it all boils down to one thing: if you tear down the statues, you're uprooting them, and they're going to fight you!
"Our place is a blessed place by the statue of the god. It concerns the survival of our village. If the statue of the god is moved, how can the people not be angry?"
The team leader laughed it off, but his bottom line was still to demolish it.
Chapter 408 Iron Lady
As the two sides were on the verge of a fight, at the human cordon set up by the police, a young villager suddenly picked up a stone and hit himself with it in the confused eyes of the unarmed policeman, and shouted with blood all over his head:
"The police beat people! The police beat people!!"
After a brief silence, the villagers became furious and started pushing and shoving each other. If they had not still retained a certain fear of the police, they would have probably used weapons at this point.
This "crooked" behavior further aroused the anger of the villagers, and the two groups immediately started fighting.
The team leader's phone also rang. He glanced at the display and his expression became even uglier: "They are from the state. They have a strong background."
"Don't be tough yet. I'll go answer the phone and see what they want to say."
The people who fanned the flames were nowhere to be found out by Fanny, but she could only sigh. The angry people would not let her find out the culprit and listen to her explanation, at least...she couldn't do that with the police uniform she was wearing.
Fanny whispered to several female police officers, "I'll change my clothes, you guys help me block it."
"Ah? Okay..." Looking at the church emblem she held out, I immediately understood what she wanted to do.
The policewomen surrounded Fanny, and she quickly took off her special combat boots and other external attire, leaving only a conservative underwear.
She put on a pure black, slim-fitting nun's outfit again, put on her hood, and a red cross lit up in the center of the instrument covering the upper half of her face: "Alright."
"You...you are..."
It's not like they haven't seen nuns before, but the nuns who appeared in public were always dressed extremely pure, with pure white clothes, headscarves, shoes, socks and even gloves. At most, there would be different numbers of gold threads on the edges to reflect the difference in rank.
White does not resist staining and can easily be stained by other colors if not cleaned properly. However, this characteristic is also what the church wants. As front-line workers, nuns have the responsibility to save lives and heal the wounded. If their robes are stained by dirt during work, it does not mean they are unclean. Instead, they should be clean as new.
White is also very eye-catching, making it easy to be noticed at the first sight.
Taking out the sickle-head staff she often used in the monastery from the ring, Fanny looked at the policewomen beside her and said with a smile: "What's wrong? I'm not those cute little girls."
The study pressure in church schools is relatively less, the curriculum is more diversified, and most importantly, the atmosphere is very good.
Atmosphere can subtly change a person's character. If one is baptized by the power of faith at close range in the church, it will be difficult for one to have extreme emotions.
At the same time, because the nuns themselves are also required to be missionaries, their cultural literacy, etiquette and social aspects are very strict. Generally, families with little girls are more willing to send their daughters to church schools to study.
In addition, the peaceful and friendly learning atmosphere is not greatly influenced by the outside world, so children who grow up in such an environment are generally well-behaved, or even cute.
After years of subtle influence, everyone has formed a cognitive inertia about the image of nuns as little angels, and has never seen a pure black and flamboyant style like Fanny.
In fact, this is not surprising. It is impossible that they are all good girls. According to the system classification, those in pure white robes and those in gold and white robes are doing logistical work in the rear.
Other colors are further subdivided based on their strengths in other aspects, such as pure black and blood red, which are typical combat colors.
The blood-red ones are more like the bloody ones when the fanatics fight. The representative character Helen, when fighting, she will hurt herself, like a cult villain leader.
The black robes are much more normal. After graduation, they usually work in various places to accumulate practical experience.
Fanny had never done much experience in guiding believers to calm their hearts, as it was not something she had learned. However, she had seen it many times so that she was able to do it. There were no other nuns present, so she could only take over temporarily.
As everyone was noisily pushing and shoving, the situation became chaotic, and a dazzling white light lit up on the goddess statue, attracting everyone's attention and making them subconsciously stop what they were doing.
The white light condensed in the air and finally shot towards Fanny who was not far away. Fanny, who was holding the staff to draw energy, was infused with the power of faith and her whole body was lit up with holy white light. Rays of light formed magic ripples and dissipated towards the surroundings.
The people who came into contact with it felt their spirits jolt, the faint light contained the power to calm the mind, the villagers’ bodies and minds were soothed, and their souls were at peace.
After seeing Fanny dressed as a nun, they all bowed devoutly and a small cheer broke out in the crowd.
For remote areas, it is difficult to see people like nuns and priestesses, and the ones they occasionally meet are ascetics who will not stay in one place for a long time.
Having been blessed by the goddess for many years, they also want to express their gratitude to the goddess. Naturally, nuns, who are God's spokesmen, will also receive extra respect from them.
Fanny turned the staff she stretched out and arrested two of the instigators, including the villager with a bloody head. Fanny pinched his neck and said in a cold tone: "Those who confuse right and wrong in front of the statue and blaspheme against God will not be forgiven."
She waved her hand, and a shadow appeared in the void, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground with a bang.
What appeared before everyone was a human-shaped iron coffin about two meters tall with a head like that of an innocent girl. Through the open iron door cover on the side, they could see that the interior space was covered with densely packed rusty spikes.
"Ah...Ah! No!!!"
"Someone instructed me to do this. I didn't mean to lie to the goddess. I swear!!!"
Fanny glanced at him and said, "God doesn't care. You are sinful."
Seeing this thing holding fate's neck, the man's whole body became soft as noodles, and the wet yellow liquid in his crotch flowed down his trouser legs to the ground: "I know who is the mastermind behind this, please, ask me quickly!"
The villagers who had been surrounding the police pushed and shoved their fellow villagers behind them back three meters, leaving a large space as if the tide had receded.
'Iron Maiden, also known as the Iron Lady'
One of the most popular punishments used by the church and nobility in the past.
This thing can be placed specifically on the execution ground for the public to see, and it can cause great psychological shock to ordinary people.
Fanny doesn't know how to use this thing, but that doesn't stop her from throwing it out to scare people. The effect is obviously very good. Before she even asks any questions, the other party starts to confess, and even wishes she could ask him quickly.
But she didn't want to let him get away with it so easily, so she waved her hand to pull out all the nails, and then she carried the man into this human-shaped iron coffin, blocking out his terrified screams.
The other one who was lifted up by the void was better off. After Fanny waved her hand and summoned another Iron Maiden, he just peed without saying a word.
Chapter 409: Yearly and Monthly Cultivation
The village, or the clan blood relatives, have always cared about how to live better on this land. This is the premise of unity.
"Just stand aside. In the name of the goddess, I have given permission to dismantle and rebuild the statue to a more suitable location. I will be responsible for any problems that arise regarding the church!"
As a quasi-violent organization derived from the nun group, the combat nuns naturally have a certain degree of right of interpretation as they serve the gods with their bodies and minds.
Especially after psychic power gradually revealed its strength within the alliance, the combination of faith and psychic power gave them a natural strong will to interfere with the power of reality.
'this...'
When the village party secretary was in a dilemma, Liszt walked over, took the loudspeaker from him, and climbed onto the excavator used for construction:
"Fellow villagers, I want to tell you that we are not here today to remove the idol, but to dig up a body."
His voice attracted the attention of everyone present.
"So who is this person? I believe the elders in our village have all heard of him, guessed at him, and avoided him. This person has been missing for fifteen years. He is the quality inspector who conducts quality inspections and assessments for the roads under your feet. He is an ordinary person who dares to tell the truth, Alvin."
"Oh, some of the old folks should have remembered it by now. So today I will tell you all that he is buried at the foot of the statue you built!"
"Who is the murderer? Who is the person behind the murderer? Fifteen years later, another person died because of Alvin's death. This person was his colleague and his good brother. I almost didn't see the sun today."
"Maybe tomorrow, no, maybe later or now, I will be killed too."
Liszt looked at the villagers below and said, "But I am a policeman. I cannot be afraid. The police are the last line of defense in this city."
"If we get scared, what will you do?"
"Fifteen years ago, a man wanted to build this new road, but he disturbed the old road. He died and his body was buried under this statue!"
"Fifteen years later, we are here. Can you give us a chance, and give yourselves a chance too? When we are working on the project, if there is still someone trying to stop us, please help us watch out. He must be the one! The one who will divide the cake!"
After Liszt finished speaking earnestly, he bowed deeply to everyone present, then turned around and bowed to the statue before jumping off the car.
The villagers who gathered around the equipment, ready to smash it, and the villagers who were watching the fun looked at each other, and finally quietly withdrew to provide space for the construction site.
The artillery position in the distance was successfully occupied by two old men swinging their canes.
Someone secretly glanced at Fanny. She seemed unaware of Lister's behavior, or she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
The goddess worshipped by the church is alive and well, so it is not her turn for those monsters and demons to play tricks on me. The person above has never been angry because any statue of the goddess was demolished.
Ernesto had launched several anti-God movements in the main continent and carried out several cleansing, demolition and destruction of all the churches on the continent. During this process, he accidentally injured the Church of Holy Light several times. If he really cared about this, he would have killed countless people.
However, it doesn’t matter whether some force deliberately created this rhythm to try to cause conflict between the two sides, or whether Ernesto simply didn’t like it, or whether the local villagers didn’t like it.
To put it bluntly, whether you believe it or not, each statue of god has its own power. Whether it brings blessings or not depends entirely on the amount of faith provided by the local people.
The more you believe, the greater the power; the less you believe, the less power there is or none at all; she doesn't care about anything else.
The biggest advantage of doing this is that she does not need multi-threaded control. Each place can take care of itself and use the power as it comes, and she does not intercept or take any commission.
In a word, you don't rely on me, but on yourselves. She needs the people's faith, but in fact she doesn't need it that much.
The downside is that she basically cannot sense the emotions and thoughts transmitted by believers from all over the world, after all, she is not connected to the track.
This is actually a little trick she plays. Based on the integrated vision and demands of the statues in various places, she can analyze what is most needed by the people in each place. This can provide a reference for her future alliance strategy planning to a certain extent.
