  Chapter 270 Soul is Currency

   "How could there be such a stupid thing..."

   Looking at the examination report in front of him, the doctor scratched his hair with an expression of disbelief.

  After that, the doctor also conducted an examination on the old man, and the result of the examination was that his signs were all normal—a very healthy old man’s sign standard.

   However, it was this that made the doctor unbelievable.

  Just worshiping the icon can cure the disease?

   Is there really such a good thing in this world?

  With a rigorous attitude, the doctor found several patients for experiments in a row, and then he also discovered the pattern.

  First of all, the icon is indeed effective in healing... Although the reason is unknown, after praying to the icon, most patients recovered to varying degrees.

  Secondly, the icon is not invincible, it can only treat viral diseases, the effect on bacterial diseases is relatively poor, and it is ineffective on trauma.

  That is to say, if someone has a broken limb, even prayer can only temporarily relieve the pain or stop the bleeding, but there is no way to re-grow the limbs. In other words, if it is a trauma, a doctor is still needed to do it—well, fortunately, at least the value of my own existence is still there.

In any case, after confirming that the icon is indeed effective, the doctor is also relieved. Now it seems that the icon has not deprived the doctor of the value of existence, but has become the best helper of the doctor. It is an infectious disease, and infectious disease is the most troublesome and tricky disease for doctors to deal with. It will not only infect many people, but also cause a lot of medical resources to be consumed.

  More importantly, most viral diseases require drug treatment, but in this era of drug shortage, it is really very difficult to find suitable symptomatic drugs. It's all right now, with the existence of the icon, at least there is no need to worry about the spread of infectious diseases here, after all, as long as you pray, you can be cured... Well, although the doctor didn't understand it, the inspection report in his hand proved it On this point, he could only admit the existence of this miraculous phenomenon.

  Now there are three holy statues in the whole town, which are located at the entrance and exit of the town, the clinic and the church, and they can be used for free-that is to say, anyone who walks to the holy statue and prays can get treatment.

  To be honest, the doctor didn't understand at all how this was done, and he was even more puzzled as to why the trial court would do this?

  Of course, he must not understand, because this is the purpose of Duanmu Huai.

  The war between the Tribunal and the evil gods has never been limited to the frontal battlefield, and the competition for believers is also one of them. Of course, the main purpose of competing for believers is not to increase one's own combat power - after all, most believers are useless cannon fodder, complete consumables, and may not even be able to stop Astartes for a second.

   That’s right, during his lifetime.

   But after death is another story.

  In the world of Xinghai OL, after ordinary believers die, their souls will return to the gods they believe in, similar to the golden law in which human beings return to the golden tree after death. And the souls of those unbelievers will become the prey of the demons who killed them, that is, the trophies of the Chaos evil god.

   This is definitely not acceptable.

  The more people you kill in reality, the more souls you get in subspace, and the stronger your power, this **** is just snowballing! This is going to keep rolling, can other people still play?

   Therefore, the war against Chaos Evil God is not only on the level of reality, but also on the level of soul. Like now, the souls of those killed by Duanmu Huai and the Tribunal will enter the Judgment Domain to enhance Duanmu Huai's power. At the same time, those who believe in the Tribunal will also join the Tribunal after their death, instead of being killed by the evil god. Take it away and become their spoils.

That's right, this is one of the reasons why Duanmuhuai set up the icon. When you pray to the icon, get blessings, and cure the disease, it means that you have made a deal with the Judgment Chamber with your soul, and you will Become a follower of the Inquisition, and the soul belongs to the Inquisition after death.

free?

   Is there anything more expensive than free in this world?

  One's life cannot be separated from birth, old age, sickness and death. And disease is the most important thing among them. The **** of epidemic disease relies on this to develop his believers. The lower class people can't afford medicine or cure their diseases, so our loving father is willing to help them and cure their diseases. Disease, bestowed upon them the glory of supreme mutation, made them abandon their human identities and become members of the Plague Legion.

  Since the **** of disease can do this, why can't Duanmuhuai? Although his blessing is not as immortal as the **** of plague, but for most people, isn't it enough? As long as it can spread in this way, a considerable number of potential believers of the God of Plague can be robbed!

  The soul is the currency of the gods!

  When those people pray to the icon and heal the disease, it means that they have made a deal with the Tribunal with their souls. When they die, their souls will belong to the Tribunal!

   Well, very fair and just, no questions asked.

After all, Duanmuhuai has already written clearly the teachings of the Tribunal, including that the soul will return to the Tribunal after death, go to the starry sky to fight against evil gods, and protect human beings——I have written the facts clearly and clearly Now, whether you believe it or not is your own business, and has nothing to do with me.

   But if you want to renege on your debt... that's another story.

   Soon, the icon of the Inquisition became famous among the vagrants.

  At the beginning, everyone was skeptical, but under the leadership of "try it and don't need money" and "use it, it's okay", most people tried to pray, and the result also surprised them. Soon, those who were sick and could only hold on without medical treatment also tried to pray to eliminate and relieve the pain.

  The patient was overjoyed to be freed from the torment of the disease, and the Tribunal was equally happy to have gained a brand new believer soul.

   This is a win-win situation.

  However, compared with the trial court, Jia Xintu, who is thousands of miles away, is a different scene.

  Before this, the Security Government Alliance launched a light-mass raid, using the light-mass bombs in their hands to launch an attack on the underground orcs near Jacintu, and wiped out a large wave of orcs. This also let the security government alliance breathe a sigh of relief, although because of this plan, their soldiers suffered a lot of casualties, but in any case, they can be regarded as proving to the public that the security government alliance also has the ability to go deep underground to fight the orcs alone Ability.

   Next, it is time for the Security Government Alliance to take advantage of this victory and appeal to the Tribunal, calling on both parties to jointly attack the underground and completely wipe out the orcs!

  Hmm...that was the original plan.

   However, the plan did not change quickly, and before the Security Government Alliance contacted the Tribunal, the plague also spread in this large city. The Security Government Alliance didn't notice it at first, but they soon realized that something was wrong, and immediately isolated some areas, locked all the infected people together, and carried out thorough supervision on them at the same time.

   Regarding the actions of the security government alliance, the people were very cooperative at the beginning. After all, with the halo of victory in the light raid operation, everyone was quite obedient at first.

  But as time went by, those infected with the plague became more and more ill, and finally turned into monsters to attack others, the people couldn't sit still. Moreover, there have been rumors that the Security Government Alliance has no cure for this plague at all. The only thing they can do is to isolate the infected and then kill the mutated monsters—there are even rumors that the Security Government Alliance has planned to Completely kill all infected people!

  Under such circumstances, the quarantined infected people naturally refused to sit still, and they were also trying to find a way to escape here.

   However, for them, this is not an easy task.

   "Have you heard?"

  In an abandoned house, several people were gathering together, talking quietly.

   "Another isolation facility has been destroyed..."

"real?"

   "COG has no cure for the plague at all, they keep us here to die!"

   Speaking of this, one of them clenched his fist angrily and waved it vigorously.

   "If we don't get out of here, we're all going to die!"

   "But... how do I leave?"

  The other person coughed twice and asked, while the leading man said with confidence.

   "As long as you go through the underground pipes, I eavesdropped on the guards before. COG has lifted the blockade on some underground pipes. Obviously, they also deliberately want us to leave here!"

   "But...leaving here, where can we go?"

  At this moment, a girl said timidly.

   "We can't live outside at all. Moreover, this plague cannot be cured, and we can only die... If they all die, I would rather die at home..."

   "How do you know it can't be cured?!"

  Hearing the girl's dejected words, the man raised his eyebrows and glared at her.

   "COG can't be cured, so what about the Inquisition? If we can find the Inquisition, maybe they can save our lives!"

   "The Tribunal? Do you think the Tribunal really exists?"

  Seeing the man's confident expression, others were a little puzzled. Because of COG's strict information blockade, most people living in Jacinto City believed that the Tribunal was just a rumor made up by vagrants, and they didn't quite believe it. After all, the content of the rumors was too exaggerated, saying that the Inquisition had invincible steel warriors, and the attacks of the orcs were useless to them. Moreover, they went deep into the tunnel, wiped out the beast clan's lair with ease, and said that they were gods who came down to earth...

To be honest, the citizens of Jasintuli hardly think that this organization really exists. Even COG's light quality raids have lost so many soldiers. How could a vagrant tribe be able to easily and unscathed? Eliminate the orcs?

   Also said that there is protection from the gods?

How can this be?

  For the citizens of Jiaxintu, the so-called court of justice is more like a legend similar to Peach Blossom Spring or Shangri-La, rather than a real reality.

"certainly."

   As he spoke, the man looked around vigilantly, and then took out a rag from his pocket.

   "This is a map I got from a homeless friend. They are going to the Tribunal, so they gave me this map. As long as we follow this map, we can find the Tribunal!"

"so far………"

  Looking at the location on the map, everyone was pale.

   "Can we get there?"

   "If you can't walk, there is only a dead end!"

  The man put away the strip of cloth and stared at the others coldly.

"You all feel that this plague is eroding our bodies right now, and it is becoming more and more serious. If we stay here, it will only be a dead end. Why not go to the trial court, maybe there is still hope for life! Are you Do you want to stay here and die? Or leave with me?"

  “………”

   Facing the man's inquiry, everyone fell silent.

  They didn't want to leave this city. After all, many people even abandoned everything in order to enter Jiaxintu.

  And now, they are asked to leave?

  For most people, this is a difficult choice.
