2366. Holy Advent Cult's actions
Through Speeder's window, Admiral Qiyala looked at the temple getting closer and closer in front of her, and her face began to darken.
This temple is actually not too big. Although it still looks magnificent, it is far from magnificent. However, this temple means something that makes Ziyala extremely wary.
Holy Advent Cult!
Yes, this is the church that Chiss territory passed from Kingdom of Dawn after it was conquered by Kingdom of Dawn. In Ziyala's view, their methods are very superb, and they seem to have some special ability, which has led to the rapid spread of Holy Advent Cult.
It is said that they will hold large-scale sacrificial activities from time to time and publicly display various miracles. And many of these miracles are useful, such as clearing the mind and concentrating on a large scale, curing minor illnesses, and even showing things like cleaning the dirt on everyone in the audience.
Although they may seem like trivial things, they are enough to drive many people crazy.
But this is not what Holy Advent Cult fears most about Ziyala. What she is really afraid of is Holy Advent Cult's previous action - saving those planets controlled by Grysk Hegemony!
Those people controlled by Grysk Hegemony almost all fell into a state of mania after killing Grysk. Then Holy Advent Cult went to build some temples, and then actually filled the hearts of those controlled people with their beliefs!
Without exception, those planets have all become devout believers in Holy Advent Cult!
Ziyala only accidentally heard that Governor Shien-Morabito was communicating with others, and vaguely heard that the temples built on those planets were different from Csilla. At that time, the Governor of Morabito seemed to have rejected someone's request to build such a special temple in Csilla.
But even so, in Ziyala's opinion, these methods of Holy Advent Cult are actually similar to Grysk's mind control! No... maybe even scarier! Because under the preaching and brainwashing of Holy Advent Cult, everyone is willing to be controlled!!
If Holy Advent Cult really controls the planets liberated from Grysk Hegemony, then Holy Advent Cult's current spread range may even reach more than ten planets!
This is not over yet. Illumine Kingdom of Kilji declared war on Chiss territory under the influence of Grysk, and then was pushed back all the way and was conquered by Kingdom of Dawn.
After that, Holy Advent Cult settled in Illumine Kingdom of Kilji. Illumine Kingdom of Kilji was actually only controlled by Grysk at the time. Some of the top leaders were not controlled as a whole, so Kingdom of Dawn defeated the main fleet and then surrendered very simply after approaching the city.
Admiral Qiyala didn't know what happened to Illumine Kingdom of Kilji after that, but what she knew was that Holy Advent Cult went there as soon as possible and arrested Grand Pontiff of the Illumine Kingdom. Therefore, the situation there is definitely not optimistic.
What's even more ironic is that it was Ziyala herself who led the fleet to defeat Illumine Kingdom of Kilji!
Admiral Qiyala does not hate Holy Advent Cult, she is just afraid. She is worried that Chiss territory will one day be completely occupied by Holy Advent Cult, and then all Chiss will become devout and fanatical believers of this sect!
She doesn't know what such a future means, but what she knows is that she must not let this happen!
But...Ziyala turned his head and looked at Governor Shien-Morabito, the old god sitting next to him, even humming a tune, but his heart felt a little cold. In her opinion, the future of Chiss territory has once again been cast into a shadow.
Speeder stopped at the entrance of the temple. Several beautiful foreign women had already come over and threw flower petals in front of the car door. Ziyala knows them. These foreign women are from the race controlled by Grysk Hegemony.
Seeing the faith and fanaticism in their eyes, Ziyala understood that no matter what, nothing could shake their faith.
Stepping on the petals and walking into the center of the temple, I saw an extremely beautiful woman standing on a high platform exuding holy light. She has kind eyebrows, a graceful body, and her eyes are slightly closed. Just standing there is like a god coming to the world, making people want to worship her involuntarily.
The pope of Holy Advent Cult, Anita.
Anita smiled slightly, her whole body seemed to be exuding the light of motherhood. She swayed lightly, and her body floated down from the platform several meters high like a feather, and stood in front of the two of them.
"Your Majesty the Governor, Admiral Qiyala." Anita greeted with a smile.
"I am now Major General Staff Department and Deputy Chief of Staff." Admiral Qiyala said coldly, "Am I no longer allowed to climb high?"
Anita smiled slightly, not minding Ziyala's offense at all, and said calmly, "Life is impermanent, and peace of mind is a blessing. All conditioned things are like dreams. Bubbles, like dew and lightning, should be viewed as such. All living beings are equal, including beggars on the street and powerful officials. If the Major General cares about it very much, I will make the decision and I can reinstate you."
"Hmph!" Ziyala snorted coldly, "I failed in the battle and should be demoted! This matter has nothing to do with you!"
Anita was not angry. She always had a compassionate smile and said softly, "All things in the universe can be summed up as one. Different paths lead to the same destination, and all methods are based on the heart. I feel happy, sighing that I have never seen it before, suddenly enlightened, and gained the endurance of life. Major General Pavilion Next, if you are willing, I am willing to resolve the resentment in your heart and guide you to escape from the mortal world and return to oneness. Maybe you will find that the resentment you feel now is just an insignificant speck of dust in the Unity."
"Hahahaha!" Shien-Morabito laughed heartily. He was the only one who dared to make such a loud noise in the temple of Holy Advent Cult, the most powerful governor in Chiss territory.
He looked at Anita, finally restrained himself a little, nodded slightly to apologize, and then said, "Sir Pope, you are right, Admiral Qiyala still needs you to untie the knot in his heart."
"I already know it." Anita smiled slightly, but did not see any movement. He only heard a burst of noise coming from the side hall.
Then, the side hall door was opened, and a Chiss official wearing administrative clothes ran out. Seeing this person, Admiral Qiyala was shocked, "Minister of Transportation! Chaf-orm-binno...Formbi (formbi) Minister! Why are you here!?"
But this guy, whose full name and common name were very difficult to pronounce, ignored Ziyala at all. Instead, he ran straight towards Anita, fell to his knees with a thud, and burst into tears.
"I'm guilty! I'm guilty!! It was me who sent the message to Imperial army! It was me who betrayed you!!" Formbi cried while crying.
Anita sighed deeply with compassion, shook his head, and looked at her as if she was in more pain than Minister Formbi, "The sin of betrayal cannot be forgiven. The Unity, it is the unity of all people. A will makes a city. The strength of one person is extremely weak, but the unity of countless people is extremely powerful. You have not betrayed me, but betrayed the Unity's countless brothers and sisters, and even more so, all the people of Chiss territory."
"I'm guilty! I'm guilty! Please give me some advice from the Pope!" Formbi Kowtowing is like pounding garlic, knocking his forehead until blood drips from it, but he still doesn't stop.
"Alas, lost souls..." Anita shook his head and sighed. With a slight wave of his hand, Formbi was lifted up by the invisible force, and the wound on his forehead also healed.
Shien-Morabito sneered, "So it's you? Formbi. I remember you, you were once a member of Chaf family, and Chaf family was the first family to have good relations with Kingdom of Dawn. And you were once You have been responsible for the limited communication and trade of the Chiss territory team in the outside world, so after becoming friends with us, you became the business representative. Even when we wiped out the family, we did not take action against you. Instead, we entrusted you with the important task of Minister of Transportation. As a result, you were the first to betray us!"
"It's my fault! Lord Governor! It's my fault! I'm willing to help you! I'll tell you all my superiors and subordinates! I'll tell you everything I know... I know that at least two ministers are involved... I'm willing to report, I'm willing to report!" Formbi looked at Morabito, as if grasping a life-saving straw, he crawled over on his knees, "I just ask you to intercede with the Pope and give me a chance to return to the Unity!!"
"How is it? What can he do?" Shien-Morabito asked Anita with a smile.
"This person has several secret communication channels and can exchange news with the outside world. Most of the secret collusion with the Galactic Empire and mutual communication is done through him." Anita said with a smile.
Shien-Morabito's expression became a little strange, and he suddenly asked, "Anyone who dares to do such a thing is a determined person. I'm afraid you also put in a lot of energy to make him convert to the Unity, right?"
Anita still had a compassionate smile on his face, and said calmly, "The Unity is the true meaning of the universe, and all those who see the power of the Unity will bow down to it. Although Formbi betrayed him, he also had a heart to convert. After having a long talk with me, he naturally yearned for the Way of Ten Thousand Returning to One."
She paused and then said, "I will give him a test. If he can pass the test, he will return to the Unity. I wonder, Your Excellency, the Governor, what do you think about the content of the test?"
"No matter what the test is, I will complete it! I will complete it!" Formbi said quickly.
The smile on Shien-Morabito's face grew wider. With a smile, he said an extremely cruel sentence, "I want him to help me get Thrawn's head!"
"Yes! Yes! Please give me your orders! Please give your orders! I have met Thrawn when he was young! This person is not easy to mess with, but this time, he definitely doesn't know that I have converted to the right path!" Formbi said loudly.
"But this guy alone is not enough." Shien-Morabito shook his head again.
Anita nodded slightly and smiled. She waved her hand and said to Formbi, "Go and cleanse your body first. From today on, you will not eat meat or fish, and go to the Contemplation Hall to meditate for 6 hours every day, waiting for your salvation."
"Yes... I obey..." Formbi prostrated on the ground, keeping this position and moving back little by little, until he stood up ten meters away from Anita. However, he still lowered his head and faced Anita and continued to retreat until he returned to the side hall.
Anita said to Shien-Morabito, "The spaceship is ready, please come with me."
Shien and Ziyala followed Anita's footsteps and walked through the temple to a small apron at the back. Here, a spacecraft about 30 meters high is ready.
Even Shien-Morabito couldn't help but take another look at this spaceship, because this spaceship... I don't know how to describe it, it is simply too holy!
The entire spacecraft is upright, about 30 meters high, and the overall shape is like a shrine. Moreover, the appearance of the spacecraft is round and integrated, and there is not even a trace of welding to be found.
Just by looking at this spaceship, I felt that only this kind of spacecraft was worthy of a transcendent religious organization like Holy Advent Cult.
After entering the spacecraft, the interior is indeed decorated like a temple. It can even be said that this is a flying temple. The spaceship flew silently, and then three little girls from Chiss came over wearing large white robes, held hands and began to sing the hymn of the Unity.
After a moment, a light that looked like a third eye appeared on the foreheads of the three little girls. Then, the spacecraft turned on the hyperspace engine and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"This is... our Skywalker?" Ziyala was a little unsure.
Anita said with a smile, "Let Skywalker guide the hyperspace navigation and pass through the 'tangle', which is effective, but it will cause too much damage to Skywalker, causing them to Neither of them will live long, which is against the Unity. Therefore, we reconstructed the navigation of Skywalker and distributed the damage to three or more people. This is... unification."
After hearing what she said, the three little girls who had completed the navigation turned around, bowed deeply to Anita, Shien and others, and then politely withdrew.
Ziyala frowned again. Navigation by Skywalker is very harmful to the body, causing almost all Skywalker to lose their ability to Skywalker after the age of 10. Those with extraordinary talents can do it until the age of 13, and there will be no longer after that. And these Skywalker often don't live past the age of thirty...
It's not that Chiss territory hasn't thought about how to reduce the burden on Skywalker, but countless attempts have failed, and in the end, everything can only be carried out as usual. But now, Holy Advent Cult actually solved the matter so lightly?
Admiral Qiyala suddenly felt that he understood why Holy Advent Cult expanded so much in Chiss territory. Skywalker has a transcendent status over Chiss territory. Now I am afraid that all Skywalker have converted to the Unity!
Anita smiled and glanced at Ziyala, who was thinking a lot, as if he had seen through her thoughts, but she didn't say anything, she just raised her fingers as white as green and pointed out the window.
There, two chubby spaceships with big bellies were parked there! Moreover, these two spaceships are very large, roughly estimated to be 500 meters long!
