, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Civilization Star Divine Tribulation!

These "human gods" were originally selected from all walks of life in society.

They could be a prophet of the temple, a **** imperial general, a deacon of the Imperial Executive Council, or someone from a lower class.

Under the instigation of the superstructures, soul scholars and soul forge masters began to contribute to the flames, trumpeting the belief in "human gods", and the major clansmen spared no effort. As a result, the god-building movement has become the most efficient mental control method for the rulers of the past dynasties.

Power and belief are highly unified, and the nodes of each stratum are enlarged and connected one by one, restricting each other, forming the leader of the new stratum, and maintaining a high degree of consistency with the ruler's will.

Due to the unremitting shaping of "humans and gods", the Quentin Empire was also "temporarily" pushed to another peak.

However, the drawbacks of doing so soon became apparent...

There are more and more "people and gods", and management is becoming more and more difficult. Gradually breaking away from the invisible line of administrative traction, they each took their place. Within the empire, the sectarian giants often clashed with each other because of their interests, causing the empire to fall into a chaotic crisis again. At the same time, the long-term chaos has also overwhelmed the living space of ordinary people.

The gradual disintegration of the central power and the weakening of its control have also buried many hidden dangers within the empire.

In order to eliminate the impact of "human and god" on the upper classes, the ruling class has increased the expansion of its territory and tried to use external wars to ease internal struggles.

On the other hand, even if killing and destroying in the name of religion and fighting the four worlds consumes the strength of the powerful "human gods", everyone can see that this is not a long-term solution.

After a hundred years of peace without the war, the empire ushered in another wave of man-made disasters.

Where should these powerful "human gods" go?

The reality is in front of you: there will be war and chaos, prosperity and peace will eventually come to an end, and the enemies of the empire will eventually be wiped out one day, but what about the internal strife? Birds can hide their bows, everyone understands the truth, and it is impossible for "tool people" to automatically return to their positions and stay out of the world.

As a result, the Quentin Empire has gradually drifted away from the glorious era of the past.

"Human God" was gradually marginalized by unprovoked internal friction, and its power was greatly weakened. At this time, with the support of family clansmen, the exiled "human gods" in the remote areas of the empire rose up one after another.

The central power is out of reach and cannot be maintained.

Fierce confrontation and excessive consumption of involution never ceased, and the entire pyramid structure was crumbling. It didn't take long for it to cause more divisions and contradictions in society.

No matter how big things are, they develop from small things.

At the end of the God-creation Movement, another more serious problem arose—soul spar became more and more difficult to obtain.

On the southern continent, the intact dark green soul spar could no longer be found hundreds of years ago.

In order to get more of these things, the imperial forces had no choice but to turn to the northern continent to find them. Because, someone brought back some fragments of dark green spar from the Northern Continent. According to scholars' analysis, the source of life contained in the fragments of the Northern Continent's soul spar is purer and more powerful.

It can be analyzed and analyzed, no one knows the true relationship between the Northern Continent and the soul spar, and everything comes from the adventurer's narration. Just relying on this little soul crystal fragment is enough to explore the truth, let alone meet the needs.

Humanity and divinity, rules and struggle, the upper-level rulers controlled the source of soul spar, and became the focus of intensified conflicts within the empire. The dissatisfaction of all classes, endless resentment erupted like a blowout, and more people shifted their own problems and unanimously aimed at the rulers.

In such an eventful time, the ruler still did not forget to continue to create a "moderate" line of thieves--joining several of the largest ancient clan families, declaring war on the family forces that despised the king's power, and stepping up the exploitation of resources of all classes internally.

The ruler wanted to cut the flesh with a dull knife and gradually clean up the dissidents.

At that time, no one could guess the real intentions of the rulers, could they not see the situation clearly?

What's the point of muddying the water?

Some people say that shifting contradictions is the orthodox method used by the ruling classes of the empire; some people say that this is a last resort; some people say that this is a manifestation of the rulers' desperation, and they are playing with fire; It is the far-sighted wisdom of the upper echelons of the empire...

In a word - under the avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.

In fact, how to transfer class contradictions has become a major problem for the rulers over time.

The brave are angry and draw the sword to the stronger; the cowardly are angry and draw the sword to the weaker.

The ruler's double-edged sword quickly became apparent, and many nobles also shunned it, but if they didn't do this, the internal conflicts within the empire would intensify.

At that time, the internal power of the empire was conquering, the ruler was powerless to control, and vented like a coward, while the Northern Continent lay there quietly, waiting for a new owner. If the contradictions are not diverted, and in the end no one will obey anyone, the entire empire will collapse after all.

Seeing that the situation was taking a turn for the worse, at this time, the imperial family sacrificed their last big weapon - the Northern Expedition of Alien Races.

There is only one way out in the end: to create a more powerful "True God" and enter the Northern Continent. Search for soul spar all the way to find secret treasures. God blocks killing gods, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha, and completely incorporates the Northern Continent into the territory of the empire.

Finally, the ruler raises his arm again to solve all disputes perfectly.

Just do what you say, the Northern Expedition order is issued, and the war mobilization order spreads in the territory of the empire like flying reeds.

The Quentin Empire will create the greatest "god" of all time - everyone knows the plan. However, the ideal is full and the reality is skinny. I thought that I would respond to every call, but at the beginning, there were very few people who responded.

These people thought that just like in the past, the ruling class was shifting the contradictions, provoking disputes, randomly supporting a few new gods, promulgating a few new policies, and then it would be over, and then the disputes between the various forces would intensify...

In fact, this kind of plan has no appeal or binding force to them.

Seeing that the mobilization order issued by the high-level officials was fruitless, a senior clan suddenly slapped his forehead and came up with a plan: why not gather all the "people and gods" from all over the country to march north, and let them come to the capital for a limited time to meet?

They also thought of calling the "King of Diligent Care", to crusade and completely destroy the stubborn people who dare not obey the call and do not obey their orders.

In fact, this plan was just an inconspicuous pretense at the beginning, and the original intention was to separate the core of the various forces - "human gods", so as to facilitate the plundering of the resources of other forces.

But after being opposed by various parties, the plan was badly sung by everyone.

At this time, a force that resisted the pressure and supported the "Support the King" plan - the Jupiter family ~lightnovelpub.net~ took the lead in standing up. They took the lead in dedicating their most powerful "human gods" to the ruler of the empire, and persuaded several ancient families to start "cleaning up the chaos" from the imperial capital.

No one knows what happened during the period, how the Jupiter family did it with a three-inch tongue.

Soon, the ruler of the royal family will summon the world and promise: if this northern expedition is successful, the forces "supporting the king" will give priority to the greatest benefits and have the most soul spar resources; those who do not follow will be announced For heresy, the most severe punishment, everyone can destroy.

Under the temptation of this powerful "charisma", more than a dozen families were soon pulled into the "king-owning" chariot.

They raised their banners and resolutely killed those who defied the king's orders.

For a time, blood flowed into rivers, screams and bones everywhere, and hundreds of thousands of people died in this "just" massacre.

Terrible!

The fate of the losers can be imagined: those with light crimes have their resources confiscated and exiled to barren land; those with serious crimes are uncompromising and directly exterminated.
