The red-haired Osborn was a little surprised that this woman was disrespectful to the gods.
The previous guide, Joao, quickly explained in a low voice.
This leech girl came from the east of the surface world, where they believed in another god and another system, which was not the same as the Western belief system.
There were two major systems in the east of the surface world, which were also beliefs that began to spread more than two thousand years ago and were deeply rooted in the east of the surface world. Compared to the two milder polytheistic belief systems in the east of the surface world, the other belief system was nearby and was also a monotheistic belief system, which was the real threat.
The holy war that had lasted for hundreds of years.
It continued.
And the monotheistic religion was getting stronger and stronger, gradually suppressing the Eden Army.
At the same time, there was a powerful religion controlled by the merchant group. Because the worship of money and the media power to control public opinion were in their hands, the religion of this group also began to expand, subtly controlling the surface world. Especially in the west of the surface world, this religion had penetrated into the bones, and the lives of the western people were influenced by it, and their thoughts were also guided.
"It is indeed difficult to unify the thoughts of billions of people." When the red-haired Osborn heard that there were several powerful religious beliefs that could almost suppress the Lord and countless small regional beliefs in the surface world, he suddenly felt a headache.
There were too many people in the surface world, the area was too large, and people's thoughts were too complicated.
There were all kinds of signs.
Demons were dancing.
It sounded like the abandoned land of the gods was comparable to the land of the Fallen.
"We did not explore the surface world because each of us has a different division of responsibilities." The red-haired Osborn returned to the topic.
"Yes, for example, we have the duty to guard the holy land and can't leave it too far. As you can see, if we relax even a little, we will be invaded by demons! This is our duty, and it is difficult for us to take care of other things! And it is said that since ancient times, our ancestors have established a sacred covenant with the surface world, the specific content of which only the archons of the Sky Council know … We believe that we had an covenant in ancient times, and agreed to protect our own world from generation to generation! " The green-crowned man Barry attributed the answer to the ancient sacred covenant, and believed that the Eden Army was the true guardian of the surface world.
"Then do you know the situation of the Eden Army?" Enoko Kazama asked again, "If Mr. Joao and the others have mentioned it to you, then you should know that the faith in the Surface World is collapsing. The influence of God has been weakened by the development of science and technology. The scientific community even thinks that humans were transformed from monkeys and were not created by God!"
"Really?" Barry, the green crowned man, had never heard of such a ridiculous theory.
"The scientific community believes that humans evolved from monkeys hundreds of thousands of years ago, from monkeys to primitive humans, and then from primitive humans to civilization." Enoko Kazama spread her hands. "The Eden Army has acknowledged this!"
"What?" Even the red-haired Osborn's face was filled with disbelief.
"Today's scientific community controls almost every corner of the world. Other than our thoughts, the power of the scientific community has already monitored everyone. When we walk on the streets, we are walking under its surveillance. If we do not admit it, they will continue to suppress us until we disappear. In order to keep the love and gospel that the Lord has spread to the world, we must endure humiliation. As long as there is a trace of possibility, we will not admit that argument. We really have no other way. " Joao said that modern scientific civilization had penetrated every aspect of the world's life. If they did not choose to cooperate, then the Eden Army would gradually become a noun in the long river of history.
"You …" The red-haired Osborn realized to what extent the faith in the Surface World had collapsed.
"If I am not afraid to offend you, in fact, the religion under the control of the scientific community has long become a tool for them to deceive the people. For the sake of votes or other ulterior motives, they want to control the people spiritually. In fact, they are completely disrespectful to God!" Enoko Kazama shrugged her shoulders.
"Is that really the case?" The red-haired Osborn could not believe what kind of situation it would be.
"The glory of the Lord has always been there!" Joao looked gloomy, but his heart was full of determination.
"We still have the power to protect this glory!" The old handsome Lucca also expressed his attitude. "Every time we enter the Holy Land, it is a process of us cultivating new seeds. Perhaps the scientific community is too powerful to stop, but our core elites are always there!"
"Just the people of the Eden Army, even if each of you is an elite, how many of them are there!" Enoko Kazama said to the end.
"What about you?" The red-haired Osborn looked at Griffon.
"Cough, of course I am a believer of the Lord, or else I would not have come to the Holy Land on a pilgrimage." Griffon did not even believe what he said.
"The believers of the Lord have been divided in the process of missionary work for more than two thousand years. We are divided into several parts internally. For example, our Pious Order is a branch of the Eden Army." Jonathan hinted that even if they were the believers of the Lord in name, there was already a huge difference in the internal subordination.
The red-haired Osborn and the green-crowned Barry looked at Joao.
Joao nodded with a wry smile.
This meant that what he said was true.
There were many enemies.
Not only were there many foreign enemies, but they were also extremely powerful. They were also divided into many branches that did not belong to each other … This was the predicament of the Eden Army!
"Are there no demons on the surface? Have you never worried about demons invading? "The green-crowned Barry suddenly asked curiously.
"No." Joao shook his head.
"If you say there are Thorn Back Demon Hounds, Long Horned Demons, and Devouring Demons, there are none!" The old handsome Lucca added. "There are only weaker beasts!"
"Humans have been free from the threat of beasts for many years. Although there are still individuals killed by beasts, beasts can no longer threaten the survival and development of humans. On the contrary, people in many places have begun to pay attention to protecting them, trying to prevent them from being eliminated so quickly." Jonathan briefly introduced the situation of life on the surface.
"You mean, you have always only fought between humans?" The red-haired Osborn was stunned.
"Yes." Griffon nodded.
"There are no races fighting, and there are no threats from powerful enemies. Your standard of living has improved, and it is indeed easy to breed corruption." The green-crowned Barry felt that the living conditions of humans were too good, and that was why they were free to fight.
"Your living conditions are good, okay? There is food to eat without work, and you never have to worry about hunger! "Griffon objected to this.
"We need to enter the Land of the Fallen every year to eliminate demons!" The red-haired Osborn shook his head.
"We also enter the underground to challenge!" Griffon insisted.
"There are only a few who can enter. Our situation is indeed not the same." Jonathan could not stand it anymore. The living conditions of the Holy Land were good, but the threat was always there.
"You have entered the Holy Land and seen the truth. Will you lean towards the Lord in the future?" The red-haired Osborn wanted to know if Griffon and the others would support the Eden Army when they returned. If Griffon and the others supported them, then they would slowly accumulate and form a powerful force. Maybe they could resolve the predicament and reverse the current unfavorable situation.
"It's very complicated …" Griffon shook his head. "I will not turn against my teammates who have fought alongside me and become enemies!"
"As long as they do not become enemies with us, we will live in peace!" Enoko Kazama smiled.
"What a pity!" The red-haired Osborn sighed.
He knew.
This answer might be the best result.
So, after he and the green-crowned man Barry looked at each other, they did not mention this topic again.
"It's useless. Truly devout people don't care who holds the power of religion. Those who are not devout, on the other hand, have the power and the right to speak. Not everyone believes in religion because they are devout. Many of them do it for other purposes. Now that the Eden Army is alone, it's impossible for them to regain their former glory. Even if Mr. Joao and the others were here, I dare to say the same. It's already very impressive that they can protect themselves from being assimilated! "Fuuma Eko expressed that religion had long been used as a tool by politicians.
"If they can gain power and gain benefits, some people don't care what they believe. They can even believe in the devil!" Fox agreed.
"It's not good for us to say anything about the surface world, but we absolutely support the believers of God. Although we live in different worlds, we are all drivers of the will of God on the earth!" The red-haired Osborn avoided the question.
They were not good at discussing the surface world, and it was not appropriate for them to express their opinions too much.
Fortunately, this was just a gathering to brag.
If it was a formal occasion.
They were not even qualified to speak.
The red-haired Osborn and the green-crowned man Barry nodded tacitly. They skipped the issue of religion on the surface world and quietly turned to Lin Dong. "Mr. Wood, what's his attitude towards all this?"
"Their country implements a non-religious education for their largest group, but I think they believe more in their ancestors, a kind of civilization and cultural heritage. As for the outside world, I think Mr. Wood is tolerant. No matter what others believe or oppose, he is a rational bystander. He is more curious about knowledge and the unknown, and may have a relatively cold attitude towards things like war. "Fox thought that Lin Dong might have such an attitude.
"So he is an elite in the scientific community?" The red-haired Osborn suddenly thought of this.
"No!" Griffon shook his head.
"I don't think so." Even Ruo of the Eden Army shook his head.
"What's going on? Isn't he a genius and a scholar? "The red-haired Osborn was baffled. This kind of person should be the top of the scientific community!
"The path he's taking is different from the current path of the scientific community. He's taking the path of subverting the scientific community. Maybe he's doing it unintentionally, but in reality, his research is shaking the authority of the scientific community that has existed for hundreds of years … The scientific community should hate him more. Even if they seem to welcome him on the surface, that's because they have to compromise with the people!" Fox shook his head. Lin Dong was completely incompatible with the scientific community. Unless Lin Dong was willing to surrender, the scientific community would definitely see him as a thorn in their side.
The red-haired Osborn understood.
Completely understood.
Why would these people invite Mr. Wood from the East, who seemed to have no religion, to enter the Holy Land?
The reason was that both the Eden Army and other forces saw an opportunity.
Everyone wanted to gather around him.
To rebuild a new order.
And Mr. Wood.
This young man had extraordinary strength and wisdom. He might not succeed, but the most likely possibility was … The zeal in the hearts of those black-haired and black-eyed genetic warriors should be no less than that of himself and Barry.
These people entered the Holy Land to learn the model of the Holy Land, and then return to the surface world to carry out a reform and reconstruction.
Perhaps the Eden Army still wanted to maintain itself.
But judging from the current bad situation.
Mr. Wood was probably the best choice out of the many choices they had.
At least, Mr. Wood, who had entered the Holy Land and knew the truth, would not force the Eden Army to admit that human beings were monkeys, like the scientific community did, and would not suppress the prestige of the Eden Army. He was also a race of the East on the surface world, and should be more useful to the West, rather than subtly encroaching and invading.
Just when the hall fell into silence.
In the lounge on the second floor.
Only the mirror image with the same appearance was left, the real body had long disappeared.
Lin Dong, Yun Jiyu, Qianjun, and Ye Qianru had been sent to a deep abyss by the puppet sisters.
"Is anyone home?" Lin Dong knocked on the rock wall next to him, "We are guests passing by, is the master home?"
