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

Looking at the examination report in front of him, the doctor scratched his hair and looked in disbelief.

After that, the doctor also examined the old man, and the result was that his physical signs were all normal - a very healthy standard for an elderly person.

However, it was this that made the doctor unbelievable.

Can diseases be cured just by worshiping holy images?

Is there really such a good thing in this world?

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

First of all, holy images are indeed effective in treating diseases... Although the reason is unknown, most patients have recovered to varying degrees after praying to holy images.

Secondly, the Holy Icon is not invincible. It can only treat viral diseases, has a poor effect on bacterial diseases, and is ineffective against trauma.

In other words, if someone loses a hand or foot, even praying can only temporarily relieve pain or stop bleeding, but there is no way to regrow the hand or foot. In other words, if it is a traumatic injury, a doctor will still be needed - well, it's okay.

, at least the value of one’s existence is still there.

In any case, after confirming that the icon is indeed effective, the doctor also breathed a sigh of relief. Now it seems that the icon has not only not deprived the doctor of its existence value, but has become the doctor’s best helper-there are many viral diseases.

They are all infectious diseases, and infectious diseases are the most troublesome and difficult diseases for doctors to deal with. They will not only infect many people, but also cause a large consumption of medical resources.

More importantly, most viral diseases require medication, but in this era of drug shortage, it is really difficult to find suitable symptomatic drugs. Now, with the existence of the icon, at least

There is no need to worry about infectious diseases spreading here. After all, they can be cured by just praying... Well, although the doctor didn't understand it, the examination report in his hand proved it, so he could only admit it.

A magical phenomenon exists.

There are now three icons placed in the entire town, located at the entrance, clinic and church of the town, and they can be used free of charge - that is to say, anyone can get treatment as long as they go to the icon and pray.

To be honest, the doctor had no idea how this was done. What he was even more confused about was why the Inquisition did this?

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

The war between the Tribunal and the Evil God has never been limited to the frontal battlefield. The fight for believers is also one of them. Of course, the main purpose of fighting for believers is not to increase one's combat effectiveness - after all, most believers were

Useless cannon fodder, completely expendable, and may not even be able to stop the Astartes for a second.

That's right, during his lifetime.

But after death it's a different story.

In the world of Xinghai OL, after the death of ordinary believers, their souls will return to the gods they believe in, similar to the Golden Law in which humans return to the golden tree after death. The souls of those who have no faith will become

The prey of the demons who killed them became the trophies of the Chaos God.

This is definitely not possible.

The more people you kill in reality, the more souls you gain in the subspace, and the stronger your power becomes. This is just a snowball! If this keeps rolling, will others be able to play with it?

Therefore, the war against the Chaos Evil God is not only about reality, but also about the struggle for souls. Like now, the souls of people killed by Duanmu Huai and the Tribunal will enter the Trial Realm to enhance Duanmu Huai's power.

At the same time, those who believe in the Tribunal will have their souls join the Tribunal after death, instead of being snatched away by evil gods and becoming their trophies.

Yes, this is one of the reasons why Duanmuhuai installed the icon. When you pray to the icon and receive blessings and cure your disease, it means that you have made a deal with the Tribunal with your soul, and you will

Become a believer in the Tribunal, and your soul will belong to the Tribunal after death.

free?

Is there anything more expensive than free in the world?

A person's life is inseparable from birth, old age, illness and death. And disease is the top priority. The god of disease relies on this to develop his followers. The lower class people cannot afford medicine or cure the disease, so we

The loving father is willing to help them, cure their diseases, grant them the glory of supreme mutation, and let them abandon their human identity and become members of the Plague Legion.

Since the God of Disease can do this, why can't Duanmu Huai? Although his blessing is not as immortal as the God of Disease, isn't it enough for most people? As long as he can use this method

If it spreads, it can rob a considerable number of potential believers of the God of Disease!

The soul is the currency of the gods!

When those people pray to the icon to cure their diseases, 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 problem.

After all, Duanmu Huai has clearly written down the teachings of the Tribunal, including that the soul will return to the Tribunal after death, go to the stars to fight evil gods, and protect mankind——I have written all the facts clearly.

Obviously, whether you believe it or not is your own business and has nothing to do with me.

But if you want to default on your debt...that's another matter.

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

At the beginning, everyone was very skeptical, but under the guidance of "Try it and it doesn't cost money" and "It's okay if you use it", most people tried to pray, and the results also made them overjoyed. Soon, those who were sick

Since there is no medical treatment and they can only hold on, they also try to pray to eliminate and relieve the pain.

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

This is a win-win situation.

However, compared to the Tribunal, Jacinto, thousands of miles away, is a different scene.

Prior to this, the Security Government Alliance launched a light mass raid, using the light bombs in their hands to launch an attack on the Orcs underground near Jasintu, wiping out a large wave of Orcs. This also made the Security Government Alliance

They breathed a sigh of relief. Although their soldiers suffered a lot of casualties due to this plan, in any case, they had proved to the people that the Security Government Alliance also had the ability to go deep underground to attack the Orcs on its own.

Next, it is time for the Security Government Alliance to take advantage of this victory to issue an appeal to the Inquisition, calling on both parties to join forces to attack the underground and completely eliminate the Orcs!

Well...that was the original plan.

However, the plan did not change quickly. Before the Security Government Alliance could contact the Inquisition, the plague also spread in this large city. The Security Government Alliance did not notice it at first, but they soon discovered the situation.

No, some areas were immediately isolated, all infected people were imprisoned together, and they were thoroughly supervised.

Regarding the actions of the Security Government Alliance, the people were very cooperative at first. After all, with the aura of victory in the Light Quality Raid, everyone was initially quite obedient.

But as time goes by, the condition of those infected by the plague becomes more and more serious, and when they eventually transform into monsters and attack others, the people can't sit still. Moreover, there are already rumors that the Security Government Alliance has no treatment at all.

The only way they can deal with this kind of plague is to isolate the infected people and then kill the mutated monsters - there are even rumors that the Security Government Alliance has planned to completely kill all the infected people!

Under such circumstances, the quarantined infected people naturally refused to sit still and wait for death, and they were also trying to find ways to escape from here.

However, this is not an easy task for them.

"Did you hear that?"

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

"Another isolation facility was destroyed..."

"real?"

"COG has no cure for the plague. They keep us here to wait to die!"

After saying this, one of them clenched his fist angrily and waved it hard.

"If we don't get out of here, we will all die!"

"But...how to leave?"

Another person coughed twice and asked, while the leading man spoke confidently.

"Just go through the underground pipelines. I eavesdropped on the guards talking before. The COG has lifted the blockade on some underground pipelines. It's obvious that they also deliberately want us to leave here!"

"But...if we leave here, where can we go?"

At this moment, a girl timidly spoke.

"We have no way to live outside. Moreover, this plague cannot be cured. We have only one way to die... If we all die, I would rather die at home..."

"How do you know this is incurable?!"

Upon hearing the girl's frustrated words, the man immediately raised his eyebrows and glared at her.

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

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

Looking at the man's confident expression, others were a little confused. Due to COG's strict information blockade, most people living in Jacinto City thought that the Tribunal was just a rumor made up by homeless people, and they didn't really believe it.

After all, the content of the rumors was too exaggerated. They said that the Inquisition had invincible steel warriors, and the attacks of the orcs were completely useless against them. Moreover, they went deep into the tunnels and easily destroyed the orc lairs. They also said that they were gods descended to earth...

…

To be honest, almost no citizens in Jacintuli believe that this organization really exists. Even COG's light quality raid has lost so many soldiers. How is it possible that a homeless tribe can escape unscathed so easily?

Destroy the orcs?

Are you talking about being protected by gods?

How can this be?

For the citizens of Jacinto, the so-called Tribunal is more like a legend like Peach Blossom Spring or Shangri-La, rather than a real reality.

"certainly."

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

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