Make the dragon great again

Chapter 388 The Petitioner

The Holy Spirit Continent, the center of the Holy Spirit Alliance of the Thirteen Nations, is an independent Holy Dominion.

This autonomous dominion, which is less than a duchy, is the headquarters of the Church of the Holy Spirit, the Holy See, and the political center of the Holy Spirit Alliance.

Every time a major event involving the entire alliance occurs, such as the succession of the new Patriarch, the Great Holy War, etc., the Holy Dominion will be the venue for the ceremony and mobilization meeting.

Since the "Demon Invasion", [Holy Spirit Church], after experiencing the "Great Holy War" for ten years, finally persecuted an ancient god belief country in the southwest of the Holy Spirit Alliance, signed an end-of-war treaty, and paid compensation everywhere.

Surrounded by the wave of joy of the victory of the jihad, today, the two patriarchs of the [Holy Spirit Church] personally received the jihadist army who returned triumphantly on the square of the Holy Dominion, and announced:
[The Great Holy War has achieved phased victories. You have proved to the Holy Spirit of Salvation that you are a qualified fighter and are qualified to become the spear of the Holy Spirit of Salvation. Go to [Heaven] to participate in the battle between the Holy Spirit of Salvation and the abyss demon! 】

To put it simply, it is "You guys fought well, and now there is a piece of land on the boss's side, and you all go to help drag it out."

Of course, there are voices of dissatisfaction among the holy war army, but this is where the Holy See is located and where the power of faith in the world is the strongest. Therefore, this objection did not cause any waves at all, and was covered up by the spiritual resonance deliberately manipulated by the church. past……

Regardless of political considerations, as a believer in the Holy Spirit, it is quite exciting to be able to enter [the kingdom of heaven] and fight for the Holy Spirit as a mortal.

"Listen up! This time we are only entering the battlefield through the [Heaven], not the qualifications to enter the [Heaven] to enjoy eternal peace."

Everywhere in the knight army, the commanders each gave their final lectures to their subordinates.

"If you want to get the chance to go to [heaven] after death, let's fight! Show our piety to the Holy Spirit of salvation!"

The commander spoke loudly in front, while the knights below whispered.

The composition of the holy war army is very complicated. In addition to the thirteen holy legions directly under the [Holy Spirit Church] and dozens of Templar Knights under its jurisdiction, there are also noble knights from the thirteen Holy Spirit Allies.

Compared with the fanaticism and piety of the members of the Knights directly under the Holy See, although the nobles of the Holy Spirit Alliance are all known as devout believers, and the succession of each title needs to be recognized by the [Holy Spirit Church], but these nobles are in fact. How much trust the church has, I'm afraid only they themselves know.

At this time, when entering the [Heavenly Kingdom] to mobilize for combat, some noble lords were discussing something in low voices with each other.

"Then what, isn't [Kingdom of Heaven] the Kingdom of God that can only be reached after death? Why do we have to enter [Kingdom of Heaven] to fight?"

"I don't know that, anyway, the Holy See announced it like this, so let's just do it."

"It turns out that the [Heaven] cannot be entered after death. The Holy See launched the Great Holy War to allow us to enter the [Heaven]. Do you think it is possible... the high level of the Holy See does not need to die to enter the [Heaven]?"

"I think it's very likely..."

"Shh! You all keep your voices down, don't be afraid of being heard by some hot-headed person who will slander us as unbelievers to the Holy See? Be careful of your titles!"

No matter what they think in private, the nobles of the Holy Spirit Alliance are all devout believers on the surface.

Impiety is not enough, the succession to the title of nobility not only requires the recognition of the Holy See, but the Holy See also holds the secret of being promoted to [Legendary].

In other words, the Holy See not only holds the right to appoint and remove secular power, but also holds the ascendant channel of extraordinary power, an absolute monopoly, whoever dares to resist, will smash the dog's head...

"set off!"

Following the Patriarch's order, the whole army agreed in unison.

The holy light that had enveloped the territory of the Holy Spirit Alliance of the Thirteen Nations for ten years opened a hole above the Holy See with a long chime, revealing a corner of the higher [heavenly kingdom].

Of course, the part that wasn't torn.

An ordinary angel with wings on its back and a vague figure flew out of it, followed by the sound of hymns and praises, and the holy light condensed into a ladder leading directly to the sky, leading the army to the sky.

The ladder is hundreds of meters wide, and the holy light is shining on it, so that the knights who step on it can be restored and blessed physically and mentally.

When the army of knights stepped onto the ladder, a pair of eyes watched them from the infinite heights of the sky...

[Heaven] is actually a special subspace.

It is a layered dimension constructed over the southern continent by the Holy Lord using half of the [Void Gate] as an introduction after defeating the Dragon Clan.

It is not only the "kingdom after death" proclaimed by [The Church of the Holy Spirit], but also a refuge for the Holy Lord to escape the rules of [death].

But unlike Ice Phoenix and Kronos, although the [Kingdom of Heaven] is also born from the [Gate of the Void], it does not depend on the [Gate of the Void] for maintenance. On the contrary, after the establishment of the [Kingdom of Heaven], It has completely escaped from the [Void Gate].

[Heavenly Kingdom] is maintained by the power of faith of thousands of Holy Spirit believers.

When tens of millions of intelligent creatures believe in the existence of the "Kingdom of Heaven" together, the huge power of faith naturally possesses the attribute of maintaining the existence of the "Kingdom of Heaven". A positive feedback loop is established.

Of course, this cycle is not perfect.

The huge power of belief not only maintains the existence of [Heaven], but also makes [Heaven] continue to expand uncontrollably.

This kind of expansion is not a bad thing, on the contrary, the expansion of [Heavenly Kingdom] itself is a process of self-improvement, a process of perfection towards the real "kingdom after death"!

However, in the expanding [Heavenly Kingdom], the power of faith required to maintain its own existence will become larger and larger. Even if the radicals of the [Holy Spirit Church] continue to invade the policy of new faith expansion, they still cannot make ends meet.

This is the biggest drawback, the power of faith produced by the believers cannot fully meet the needs of maintaining the [Heavenly Kingdom]!

[Kingdom of Heaven] needs additional power supply.

Thus, there was the birth of "Prayer"...

[Prayer] is not a secret word or existence. On the contrary, all believers of the Holy Spirit, as well as those who have understood the belief of the Holy Spirit, know what it is.

[Prayer] is the title of devout believers of the Holy Spirit who ascend to the [Heaven] after death. In other words, they are the "heroic spirits" living in the [Heaven].

This is information known to the general public.

However, the truth is...

People who fanatically believe in the teachings of the Holy Spirit, while producing the power of faith, their souls are also infected by the power of faith for a long time. The soul left behind after death is the [Prayer].

These [petitioners], these souls who have been soaked in the power of faith for many years, have deteriorated in essence. They can indeed exist in the environment of [heaven] for a long time, but they have lost themselves and become only praying day and night The power of faith produces a machine...

Even, when the [Kingdom of Heaven] needs it, the [Prayer] will burn itself and release a certain amount of power of faith in a short period of time, becoming the firewood to maintain the existence of the [Kingdom of Heaven]...

For the Holy Spirit, the [Kingdom of Heaven] and the Holy Lord, the [Prayer] is a consumable.

……

To be continued, change first and then change.

It's Christmas, everyone stay safe... Oh, you don't have girlfriends, it's okay.
