Chapter 872

"Life Church is hypocritical, evil and cruel. Since its appearance, it has invaded the land of orcs, plundered the wealth of human countries, bewitched the ignorant people with heresy, split the Empire and damaged the authority of our Lord..."

"Since 1072, John the blasphemer has been preaching the faith of the Church of life in holy maniyah, inciting the public and provoking opposition in spite of the agreement of the true God."

"Since John the blasphemer preached, there have been a total of 47 life rioting inside and outside the Empire, 34 of which are related to John the blasphemer. The rioting resulted in the death of at least 132 nobles and 27 clergy, including three earls, a marquis and two bishops, and affected 31 cities... The crime is extremely heinous and unforgivable!"

"According to the gospel commandment of the eternal canon," the glory of our Lord is inviolable, and the majesty of our Lord is inviolable! "

"John the blasphemer is insidious, evil, twisted and selfish. He bewitches the ignorant people for his personal ambition and self-interest. What he has done is unforgivable. Now, according to the judgment decision of the eternal church, John the blasphemer is punished by burning!"

"John... Do you know sin?"

The solemn voice of the bishop of the inquisition spread throughout the square.

At the end of the reading, he almost roared at Old John in a roaring voice. His eyes were round and his facial features were ferocious and angry.

The words seemed to have some kind of magic, with the power to shake people's hearts.

After hearing what he said, the onlookers could not help feeling shocked, and a feeling of remorse and guilt came to mind. They could not help thinking about all kinds of wrong things they had done, and they were afraid and uneasy

This is the divine power of the clergy.

For a time, many eternal believers who fear the church or people with weak spiritual endurance can't help but bow their heads, or repent and pray, or sob.

There are also some people who are not in a stable mood. They stare at John, the God's wife, with hatred. It seems that they want to eat his meat

The repressive quiet atmosphere formed when the bishop of the trial office denounced John was soon broken, and the curse sounded again. It seemed that no curse in the world could express people's hatred for blasphemers

If it wasn't for the distance, I'm afraid many more stones would fall on old John.

However, unlike the angry people after hearing the verdict, old John's look was still calm, and the Bishop's [spiritual shock] did not seem to have any effect on him.

He raised his head gently, his waist was straight, and his voice was firm

"No, I'm... Not guilty."

"Bold! John the blasphemer, what you have done has long been recorded in our judgment. With the agreement of the true God and the eternal canon as evidence, do you still want to quibble? "

Said the bishop of the inquisition.

With a sneer, old John glanced at the ferocious and angry bishop of the inquisition, then slowly turned his eyes to the calm faced Pope Benedict II.

He took a deep breath and said calmly:

"Nothing I have done has violated the agreement of the true God... Everything I have done is just and correct."

"Sophistry! Lies

Roared the bishop of the inquisition.

Old John sneered again and glanced at him

"Monsieur bishop, you say that life teaches hypocrisy and affectation, evil and cruelty, but what I see is another scene."

He said with a solemn look:

"Since the emergence of the Church of life, we have resisted the invasion of the abyss demons, expelled the invading demons, and purified the pollution left by the abyss in the SEGS world..."

"Help the poor out of difficulties, rebuild their homes, adopt orphans, relieve the disabled, treat the sick and wounded for the poor who can't be cured regardless of return, impart knowledge and skills to the people, help people overcome setbacks and survive..."

"We witnessed a civilian break free from despair and hope for the future. We personally led everyone out of the predicament and ushered in the future..."

"How can such a benevolent church become an evil affectation in your mouth?"

"As for what you said about invading the land of orcs and plundering the wealth of human nations..."

"The former is that the orcs persecuted the elves, invaded the elves' forest first, and our Lord and elves' followers were forced to fight back."

"The latter is the eternal church, which has no sense of responsibility, abandons its people again and again when the evil spirits recover and the demons invade. It is our Lord who guides believers and soldiers to intervene in time, bringing peace and salvation..."

"This can be proved by the ballads of the bards, the caravans coming and going, and the believers who spontaneously emigrated to the area where the Church of life is located one after another and converted to our Lord."

"It took us less than a year to revitalize the war-torn fengyueling and make her peaceful and prosperous; It took us just a few months to get one poor man after another out of poverty. "

"So, how can it be regarded as plundering wealth?"

"My Lord is only bringing new hope to the poor people after the eternal church has abandoned its own people."

"There is a good saying in the canon of life that the eyes of the people are bright. All this is not our choice or our compulsion, but the people choose the embrace of our Lord and become believers of our Lord."

"So... How can it be called bewitching the people?"

Old John's words were loud, and it seemed to ring in the square and in everyone's heart with some force that could not be described in words.

The solemn and quiet voice, like a melodious bell, vibrated in the hearts of the people.

Many people gradually calm down and can't help thinking of all kinds of hearsay about the Church of life that they have heard from all kinds of grapevine news in recent years.

For a moment, the voice of those curses was gradually lowered, and many people slowly woke up from their anger and watched the trial on the stage.

The Bishop's face changed slightly.

His eyes were gloomy and he yelled

"Sophistry! Lies

"The glory of my Lord shall not be defiled, and the glory of my Lord shall not be defiled!"

"After the war between gods and demons, our Lord led the gods to fight against the abyss and enter hell, and no longer fight for the safety of the SEGS world all the time. However, the Church of life expanded its faith while our Lord was fighting ahead. This is a shameless betrayal of justice!"

"Such a hypocritical church is not qualified to preach on the mainland! Not to mention bewitching believers on our Lord's land without permission

Old John sneered

"Betraying justice? Bewitching believers? That's all the more ridiculous. "

Then he looked cold

"As far as I know, after the war between gods and demons, the abyss forces invaded the SEGS world in a large scale. It was the eternal church that did not want to come back and wanted to use the power of the abyss demons to consume our Lord's strength..."

"Only, my Lord is strong and just. He turned the tide in the most critical time and defeated the invasion of the abyss!"

"So, how can it be regarded as a betrayal of justice?"

"If you really want to say betrayal, it's the Eternal Lord who doesn't want to come back! If you really want to say betrayal, you want to use the power of the abyss to weaken the eternal Church of the Church of life! "

"Bold! My Lord's name is something you, a blasphemer, can mention! "

Exclaimed the bishop of the inquisition.

Old John was even more disdainful

"So what? Since you said betrayal, let's have a good talk about it.... "

"Everyone in the world knows that our Lord is Eve, the goddess of life. How many people know that our Lord's full name is Eve utrahil?"

"My Lord is not only the goddess of life, but also the great tree of the world!"

"He is the incarnation of life and the mother of nature. He is the master of the silver age. He was once praised as the mother of all gods by the gods."

Then he gave a sneering look at the eternal church clergy

"Why did the world tree wither a thousand years ago, why did the Holy maniyah Empire rise, and this history buried by the eternal Church... Do I need to talk about it?"

Hearing old John's words, some highly qualified clergymen of eternal church changed slightly, while the people under the stage cast curious eyes.

It's the nature of every mortal to watch the excitement.

The real identity of the goddess of life named by old John also surprised many people.

This brings up one point.

Although it is no secret that Eve reveals her identity that the goddess of life is the world tree, for the majority of ordinary people, these extraordinary world messages are still far away.

For the vast majority of the civilians at the scene, this is the first time they know about it.

However, for the world tree, the creatures of SEGS world are no stranger.

The silver civilization of the elves has left a deep influence on all races in the SEGS world. Even after a thousand years, it has not disappeared, and the most important one is the story about the world tree.

In all kinds of myths and legends, Weian's world tree always appears as benevolence, justice and kindness.

Therefore, when we learned that the identity of the goddess of life was the world tree, the mood of the onlookers immediately became delicate.

This subtlety, however, became more and more obvious under the apparently slightly changed expression of the bishops and priests, who did not deny it.

There seems to be more discussion

As for old John, he let himself go.

He held his head high with disdain. Under the ugly eyes of the bishop and the suspicious eyes of the priests, he poured out the secret of a thousand years ago that he had seen from the Holy Scripture

"To say betrayal, it should be the eternal church betraying the Church of life, or... The Church of nature that used to be!"

"Thousands of years ago, it was the Eternal Lord who had received the help of our Lord and achieved the throne of God. He was the one who betrayed our Lord and avenged his kindness."

"Thousands of years ago, it was the gods of heaven who, for their own selfish desire, prevented our Lord from going further and attacked him secretly."

"If you want to say betrayer, eternal church is Betrayer!"

"Shut up! You shameless blasphemer! How dare you blaspheme my Lord's name

The trial bishop was furious, and harshly exclaimed.

Other clergy in the audience also cast angry eyes. Some of them even stood up and glared at Old John.

Even the eternal Pope Benedict II in the center of the high platform has a cold smile in his eyes.

He looked at Old John more deeply.

For a time, one after another strong breath towards old John, it is the eternal church Archbishop full of anger.

Old John just felt that the great force like a tsunami came from all directions, bombarded his spirit and soul, and made his face pale. He couldn't help humming.

The blood flowed down his nostrils and corners of his mouth.

However, his waist was still straight and his eyes were calm.

He gave a slight smile with a sneer on his face

"Is this the eternal church? What is the anger after the scar is uncovered? It's not anger or hypocrisy. What is it? "

"You --!"

Listening to old John's sarcasm, the trial bishop trembled with anger and his eyes almost burst into flames.

Looking at the angry bishops, old John gave up when he was good, and stopped pestering about the old things thousands of years ago.

He sighed and said:

"Of course, what happened in the past has passed, just like the past, it is no longer important."

"The great goddess also warned us in the canon of life that remembering history can help us remember the lessons, but at the same time, we should focus more on the present and the future..."

"When I mention the past, I don't want to show how innocent the Church of life is. I just want to remind you that it's not enough to impose treason on our Lord, on our church of life, the eternal church."

"In my opinion, for the human world and for the general public, the Church of life is the future and hope, while the eternal church is just rubbish that will be swept into the garbage heap of history."

"You are... Bold! You wicked heretic! How dare you blaspheme my Lord, the great eternal religion

Hearing this, the trial bishop was furious at last.

Then he refuted:

"It is precisely because of our Lord's protection that human beings can become the protagonist of the era. Is the service of our Lord comprehensible to you, a mere heretic, a traitor of mankind? "

Old John sighed

"I don't deny the contribution that the eternal church has made to human society, but it is also a shackle that restricts the further development of human society and the common progress of all races and civilizations in the whole SEGS world..."

"Ridiculous! Sophistry! Bewitch

Reproached the trial bishop.

Old John chuckled and stood more and more upright.

The snowflakes falling on him make him look more free and unrestrained

"Judge Monsieur bishop."

He looked into the eyes of the judge with clear eyes

"Since you don't agree with me, do you dare to argue with me about their respective classics?"

Hearing this, the trial Bishop's eyes were slightly fixed.
