Alien Knights

Chapter 479: God is dead

Alfonso looked at the cross on the altar in the room, and said in a deep voice: "I am a clumsy person, and I don't understand the so-called philosophy and science. But I know that without your majesty's blessing, there will be no Today’s Twilight City. Those people who forget the past favors and deny the king and the pope are betrayal!"

   Emerson smiled bitterly at Alfonso and said: "Things are not as simple as you think, anyway... Forget it, don't talk about it. Can you tell me why your Majesty sent this cross?"

   Alfonso shook his head slightly: "Your Majesty just said that after you give this cross to you, you naturally know how to do it."

   Emerson spread his hands helplessly: "The actual situation is, I don't know."

   Looking at Alfonso, he was also unsure. Emerson slowly walked up to the altar and stretched out his hand to touch the cross: "Is it possible, what mechanism is there on this?"

   The moment Emerson touched the cross, his soul was suddenly sucked into it.

   When Emerson opened his eyes, he found himself in a bright palace. Todd sat on the uppermost throne and looked at him with a smile.

   Emerson looked at Todd, his eyes lit up, and he shouted excitedly: "Your Majesty!"

   Todd smiled and said to Emerson: "It seems that you have discovered the secret of the cross. I was still guessing who would come in first."

  " I also discovered this secret accidentally..." Emerson looked at Todd and asked eagerly: "Your Majesty, the Heavenly Conference has not been held for half a year!"

   Todd nodded helplessly and said, "Indeed, I have been recovering from injuries for the past six months."

  "Because of the war in the north?"

   "Yes, but in the end, I won."

   Emerson sighed: "That's good... Then, Your Majesty, when do you plan to return to West Side?"

   Todd noticed the look on Emerson's face: "What? Is something wrong with Twilight?"

   Emerson sighed, and brought to Todd the things that happened in Twilight these days, including land annexation, religious criticism, and so on.

   After saying these words, Emerson looked at Todd and said: "Your Majesty, Twilight is no longer the Twilight of the past, everything here has changed."

   Todd was silent for a while.

   What Emerson did not expect is that Todd said suddenly: "All this is bound to happen."

   Emerson couldn't believe his ears: "What did you say?!"

Todd got up from his seat and walked to Emerson's side: "Remember what you and I said in the past? If the person who manages this country is no longer the monarch, but the people themselves. Everything that is happening now is It is inevitable."

"Your Majesty, what is meant to be inevitable? In your kingdom, there are loyal people who have been seized by those cunning merchants and eventually have to live on the streets. Those brave scholars have devalued the Bible for nothing. Wanton defamation of religion and destruction of the people’s beliefs. Do you think that the twilight city, where these things happened, is better and more perfect than the old twilight city?!"

Todd shook his head helplessly: "Emmerson, when the great wheel of history starts to turn, when the pace of the times is no longer stagnant, you will find that everything around you is changing. Land and wealth will be concentrated in the hands of a few people. The freedom of human nature restricted by religion will be gradually released. Human beings will gradually put their own interests above others. In order to pursue higher personal values, people will constantly create, learn and enlighten, and these things will be like snow. The ball is average, the bigger it rolls, the bigger it gets."

"But, what about fairness? What about justice?! How about everyone's happiness?!" Emerson looked at Todd with an expression of pain: "Let the rich people deprive others of their wealth under the guise of enlightenment and freedom. And happiness, is this also the progress of the times?"

A hesitation flashed in Todd's eyes, and then slowly whispered: "Sometimes, progress and fairness are often not twins. When the times progress, there will inevitably be exploitation and oppression, no matter what era. , It’s the same in any world... So, Emerson, I can understand your feelings. But if you want to see progress, you must first try to adapt to injustice."

"I……"

   Emerson's face flushed red, then turned pale first, and no trace of blood was seen anymore.

Todd closed his eyes and said softly, "Emmerson, the cross I gave you has buried a part of my divine power. Anyone who touches it can enter this temple to see me. But I have A person who asks to touch this cross must be a devout believer, and they must actively ask to touch this cross. Of course, you can't actively tell others the secret of the cross."

   Emerson slowly lowered his head: "I respect the holy will."

   Todd waved Emerson out of the soul space, before turning back to the throne, looking at the void in the distance, whispering to himself: "One is reality, the other is utopia?"

   Back to Emerson during the pilgrimage, slowly opened his eyes, his face pale.

   Alfonso, who was behind him, noticed the strangeness, and asked, "Prime Minister, what's the matter?"

   "No, there is nothing."

   Emerson seemed to be ten years old in an instant, walked down the altar tremblingly, and walked towards the door step by step.

   Watching Emerson walk out, Huggins, who had been waiting outside the door, poked his head in, and asked Alfonso in the room: "What happened?"

   Alfonso shook his head unknownly.

  " The people on your Majesty’s list have already been sent to the carriage. "Huggins walked into the room and said to Alfonso: "The Knights of Musee will send an **** to take you to the border."

   Alfonso put down his helmet and strode towards the door.

   got on the carriage, Alfonso walked along the wide road. The scenery along the way is picturesque and poetic, but he always feels that he is incompatible with this place.

   When the team reached the gate, a quarrel caught Alfonso's attention.

   A group of students dressed as students, holding flyers that promote science and criticize ignorance. While sending them to everyone in the city, they also loudly criticize the ignorance and ridiculousness of religious speech.

   Another group of clergymen wearing priestly robes walked up to the students and asked them to immediately stop this blasphemy behavior.

   The two factions quickly got together and quarreled loudly.

   Listening to the words criticizing Christ and slandering religion from not far away, Alfonso's veins raged.

   He kicked open the carriage door, grabbed the hilt of the big sword behind him with one hand, and jumped out of the carriage angrily.

   Quick-eyed Huggins got out of the car~lightnovelpub.net~ grabbed Alfonso, shook his head vigorously, and said, "Calm down! Calm down! You can't attack those students here!"

   "Why not?! Listen to what the **** are saying!" The parasite's limbs emerged from the gaps in Alfonso's armor, twisting and swinging in mid-air.

Huggins said to Alfonso in a helpless and solemn tone: "Your Majesty has personally ordered that in Twilight, everyone has the right to freedom of speech and cannot use force to interfere with the freedom of others! "

   Alfonso was taken aback, gritted his teeth and shouted, "Then let this group of people talk nonsense there?!"

   "In the face of other people's remarks, you can argue with others, you can cite counterexamples, you can argue and analyze, but you can't do it!"

   Alfonso beat the car door angrily, stepped heavily on the ground with his feet, and shouted, "Let's go!"

   Huggins sighed as he watched Alfonso get back into the carriage.

Frowning and looking at the noisy students, Hudgens picked up a scattered leaflet from the ground, glanced at the content on it, opened his eyes, took a breath, and divided his hands hard, and the leaflet was instantly caught by him. Torn in half.

   The shredded paper slowly slipped to the ground, with a line of bright red characters printed on it.

  『God is dead! 』
