John, the one who is favored by God, was captured by the judges of the Eternal Church.

With the death of the players, this incident quickly spread among the players and then spread throughout the human world.

For several months, John, the God-loving man, has already made a name on the Seges continent through his missionary activities.

For many newly converted believers in the human kingdom, he was almost like a mentor, so this incident quickly caused an uproar in the human world.

For a time, the Vivians everywhere were indignant about this. The situation on both sides became more tense due to the persecution of Vivians by the Eternal Church and the Imperial Nobles.

"Master Elf Priest! Please lead us to save Lord John! He saved us from the darkness, and he brought us the faith of the goddess!"

"That's right! The Eternal Church is depraved and corrupt, and Lord John will definitely be cruelly persecuted by them!"

In the slums of Larona, the converted human believers were very angry and prayed to the players who had accepted the mission of Old John and who were stationed here to continue preaching.

However, compared to the worried and angry human believers, Larona's players seem to be more resentful of what Old John had happened.

Their eyes were so anxious that they were red-eyed and gritted their teeth, as if their own father had been arrested.

"Don't worry, everyone! We will definitely not let the Eternal Church succeed! Lord John is the Goddess's favor, a righteous and kind elder, and it is our unshirkable responsibility to save him!"

The players said indignantly, justice and awe-inspiring.

Of course, it is unknown whether it is justice or whether it is because the NPC who sent the mission to him is caught and may cause death to the task.

On the border between the Holy Mannian Empire and the Kingdom of Iris, the believers of life who regarded him as the object of follower were also furious in the cities where Old John had stayed.

"The evil eternal church actually kidnapped the genius John, the genius under the Goddess's crown! These bastards who only know how to bully the weak!"

"What did Lord John do wrong? He brought us light and hope, why did he persecute him? Just because the gods are different?"

"So what if the gods are different? Where are they when the demons attack us? Where are they when the nobles oppress us? Only the great goddess's crown has sent an army of elves to help us!"

"Fallen! The Eternal Church has really fallen! They have completely forgotten their original intentions!"

"Protest, we will gather together and protest against the Eternal Church!"

The believers of life were furious and soon gathered to protest and march at the local Eternal Church.

In some more intense places, violent attacks on the church even occurred.

However, most of them are ordinary people. No matter how angry or united they are, they are still no match for the judges of the Knights, and therefore they are soon brutally suppressed by the Eternal Church.

However, this not only did not solve the problem, but further aroused public outrage.

In particular, at some point, news of the Eternal Church's violent suppression of life believers began to spread on the mainland.

The minstrel sings ballads that satirize the eternal church, and sings the life believers of struggle.

In the underground black market, there are even a large number of images of bloody suppression of the Eternal Church, which has already been in danger, making the blood of the Eternal Church, which is already in danger.

It was like stabbing a hornet's nest. For a moment, it seemed that the name of the Eternal Church was quickly equated with the evil demon. Although it did not fall to the point where everyone shouted and beaten, it also completely aroused the anger in the hearts of the poor at the bottom.

Gradually, before the old John was escorted to Mannia, the storm quickly spread to the entire empire and even the Kingdom of Iris in the south. The speed of its spread was even stunned by the black priests in the courthouse, which was specifically responsible for intelligence within the Eternal Church.

"Damn it, what's going on? Why do you suddenly capture the God-lovers of the Church of Life? He is the God-lovers, not an ordinary believer! Do you know how much trouble this will cause to the church and the empire?!"

In the Eternal Church's Court, Bishop Winster, who was also the regent of the Empire, looked as if he was ashen, and roared at the pastor and bishops of the Court.

The black-clad bishop in charge of this matter also looked ugly.

He said with a gloomy look:

"Mr. Winster, please calm down. This is the decision of the Pope's crown."

"The Pope's Crown..."

Bishop Winster's pupils suddenly shrank, and then became furious:

"Is his eyes dizzy?! The magic of Segus is revived, and the empire is unstable. It is the time when people need to stabilize their hearts. At this time, he..."

"Lord Winster."

The Black Bishop interrupted Bishop Winster.

He slowly raised his head, his eyes deeper:

"The Pope's Crown is the eye of my Lord on the earth. Slandering the Pope's Crown is to blaspheme the supreme Lord. Please be careful..."

Bishop Winster was slightly stunned.

His expression changed, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"Even if he is the Pope, he cannot do anything randomly! Taking action against the pagan gods is tantamount to declaring war. Do you think we are now ready to go to war with the Church of Life?!"

"Bishop Winster..."

The black bishop sighed slightly.

He took a deep breath and said:

"At present, do you still think that time is on this side of the church?"

After hearing his words, Bishop Winster was stunned for a moment.

The next moment, his expression changed and his eyes were complicated.

Which side is time on?

If it were five years ago, he would not take a small church of life that even a half-orcs could not defeat.

However, a few years have passed, and this existence that once could not be taken seriously has expanded into a giant that moves and the Segs continent is about to shake three times...

The goddess they worshiped also transformed from a goddess of life who jumped out of the corner of the stone into a world tree with powerful divine power.

Seriously speaking, Bishop Winster was quite shocked when he knew the true identity of Eve, the goddess of life.

Now the soul of the Black Bishop asked back, finally putting the reality that someone deep in his heart who was unwilling to face, but in fact he had already had an answer, and was bloodily placed on the surface.

At this moment, Bishop Winster was silent.

Seeing Bishop Winster calm down, Bishop Black continued:

"Lord Winster, the Church of Life has developed so fast that it gives us less time."

Bishop Winster said nothing.

Many times, without saying a word, you have already expressed your inner attitude and thoughts.

However, Winster's eyes were still a little complicated, and he seemed to be unwilling to accept it.

It was not until a moment later that he said dryly:

"But... hasn't my Lord reduced his strength, given blessings, and cultivated a large number of judgement knights?"

"As time goes by, our judgement knights will become more and more! Although the goddess of life is the world tree, it will only recover soon. Could it be that she really has the power to compete with my Lord?!"

"Not to mention, the Segus World is about to be unblocked. Once it is unblocked, we..."

"Lord Winster."

The Black Bishop interrupted Bishop Winster again.

He sighed lightly and continued:

"Mr. Winster, before the world of Seges was unblocked, this was not only the oracle of the Pope's crown, but also the oracle of our Lord."

"Oracle? This... how is this possible?! Does my Lord think we can't even hold on to the day of unblocking?!"

Bishop Winster widened his eyes and could no longer hide the shock in his heart.

The black bishop said in a deep voice:

"If it was the world tree that was once, it was indeed not the opponent of my Lord, but His power was no longer just the power that was once."

"It's not just the power that used to be..."

Bishop Winster's pupils shrank again.

It seemed that he had thought of something, his expression changed slightly:

"You mean... it's those..."

"Elf."

The black bishop said in a deep voice:

"These are elves who are called the Chosen by the believers of life and who like to call themselves players!"

"Mr. Winster, don't you think that the spread of the Church of Life in the Empire has seemed to be too exaggerated recently? Even if the church has begun to suppress it, it still has no help..."

"This is all done by those elves. According to the judge's estimate, the elves who lurked into the empire's mission may have at least 200,000 elves..."

"They have the ability to revive from the dead and are constantly killing them, but they are more and more..."

"Not only that, the news of the arrest of the God-fellow John this time has spread rapidly on the continent. We find that there is also the shadow of the Elf Selected One behind it..."

"They are crazy, aggressive, and very inflammatory and seductive..."

"It is precisely because of their existence that the poor in the empire were quickly bewitched and fell into pagans."

"Not only that... According to the inferred by several god envoys, the number and strength of these elves' chosen ones also seem to be related to the strength of the World Tree."

"These Elves' Chosen are our enemies when we are confronting the Church of Life!"
