"What kidnapping? What are you talking about... I just wanted you to..."

However, before Chen Huijie could finish speaking, the signal, which had been uninterrupted for an hour, suddenly started to fluctuate.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Chen's image disappeared.

"Hey!!!!" Chen Huijie couldn't sit still any longer.

Chapter 151 FrostNova received a harsh lesson as soon as she arrived in the South. (+27)

Late June.

On the eastern border of Ursus.

A cold wind howled as it swept across the steep mountain ridge.

Beside the stream below the ridge, there was a makeshift camp set up by the Yeti.

A campfire and a few tents made of tattered cloth.

Although it was early summer, the mountains north of Chernobog were still bitterly cold.

However, this temperature was already considered quite warm for the Yeti who came from the frozen tundra.

However, the Yeti, having just arrived in southern Ursus, didn't even have time to enjoy the change in temperature before encountering an extremely difficult problem.

A Yeti wearing a white cloak came running from below the stream.

When he reached the center of the camp, his gaze quickly locked onto a silver-haired bunny woman.

She sat quietly by the river, her silver hair shimmering softly in the sunlight, her face serene and dignified, like an unyielding mountain.

Holding a tattered piece of cloth with a red cross printed on it, he ran to the silver-haired woman in the center of the camp and said:

The Yeti walked to her side and said in a slightly hoarse voice:

"Elder sister, I've noticed something strange. Every village around here has the same sign hanging at its entrance."

As he spoke, he handed the rag in his hand to FrostNova.

FrostNova took the tattered cloth and examined the red cross on it.

Her brow furrowed slightly, even though she knew very little about the subject.

However, she was certain that the symbol was not from an official Ursus organization.

Just then, the other Yeti who had gone out to gather information returned.

They all reached the same conclusion.

"Big sister, it seems that the villages around here all follow a certain religion."

"Yes, as soon as I arrived, they asked me if I had ever heard of the Ursus True God."

"It is said that they donate to the Ursus True God every month and pray for the True God's blessing."

"They also said that since they started believing in this True God, the military police who used to raid the area have stopped coming."

They firmly believed that it was because of the protection of the True God that they had surplus food and money and no longer had to go hungry.

"I have a feeling this is a cult." FrostNova's brows were furrowed, her tone filled with worry.

She was worried that these innocent people would be controlled and persecuted by cults.

They also worried that this cult would affect the Reunion Movement's plans.

As the vanguard of the Reunion Movement's southward advance, the Yeti Squad was tasked with an important mission.

That means setting up camp in advance, gathering food, and building good relations with the surrounding villages.

So that our compatriots who arrive later will have a place to stay.

However, not only are the nearby villages controlled by this cult, but even the Infected settlements here worship this so-called Ursus True God.

"Cult?" Upon hearing FrostNova utter the word "cult," a Yeti immediately exclaimed.

"Patriot has eradicated many cults before, is this the same as those?"

FrostNova shrugged gently:

"More or less, but this scale is larger than any we've seen in the snowfields before. The cults we encountered in the past usually only occupied one or two villages."

"But this cult has taken control of every village we can see."

This shows that their power is enormous.

At this point, the more composed Yangge discovered an advantage:

"Since this cult has taken control of so many villages, if we can help the villagers drive them out..."

"Could this help us build closer relationships with these villages?"

After Yangge's analysis, the other Yeti also noticed a positive side.

"Yes, we help them get rid of the cult, and incidentally, we also build a closer relationship."

They will definitely thank us.

"This way, we can not only get food, but also establish a foothold among these villages."

"That's right, this so-called True God sounds like a lie, and it'll be very easy to expose it."

"Big sister, let's go."

Under everyone's gaze, FrostNova hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Walk."

However, half an hour later...

"Get lost, you're talking nonsense." (Ursus profanity)

An Ursus woman, wielding a pickaxe used for tilling the ground, began to hurl insults at FrostNova and her group.

The villagers' distrust sank FrostNova's heart to the bottom, but she did not give up and continued to explain to them methodically:

"Auntie, listen to me, there is no True God on this land."

Donating money and goods to them won't change your lives.

"True change requires your own down-to-earth efforts and hard work."

However, FrostNova's words were not understood by the older woman.

On the contrary, she was even more furious:

"I wasn't fooled; you were the ones who were fooled by the lies woven by the empire."

"You ugly and evil Infected, don't try to corrupt my mind and make me turn away from the True God."

The woman's angry roar quickly attracted the attention of other villagers.

After learning that FrostNova wanted them to stop believing in the True God.

All the villagers were in an uproar.

They grabbed whatever weapons they could find and gathered there, cursing the Yeti:

"Get out, get out of here."

"Those who do not believe in the existence of the True God are in trouble; Catastrophes are frequent. This is the True God punishing those who are disrespectful to God!"

Some people shouted, as if to prove their unwavering faith.

Faced with this out-of-control situation, the Yeti felt incredibly angry and frustrated.

They couldn't understand how anyone could willingly be deceived.

Even FrostNova's expression showed some pain; her breathing grew heavy as she desperately tried to prove that she truly cared for them.

"Listen to me..."

Just as both groups were blushing and trying to prove that what they were saying was true.

The priest who happened to be preaching in the village received the news and arrived at the scene with a grim face.

The villagers, seeing the priest in red robes, were like finding a savior. They swarmed around the high priest and pointed at FrostNova and her party:

"Priest, they say our True God Church is a fraud."

"They are questioning the existence of True God."

The high priest heard the villagers' shouts, and a sly glint flashed in his eyes.

He was secretly delighted; it turned out that a bunch of meddlesome people had intruded into their territory. These outsiders dared to question their doctrines—they were truly audacious.

He slightly raised his chin, a contemptuous smile playing on his lips.

Their church preached here for several months, during which time they naturally encountered countless intelligent people who attempted to challenge their faith.

However, their approach to these intelligent people was very simple and direct.

That is to mobilize one's own followers and regard these heretics as thorns in one's side.

It must be physically eliminated.

They knew that only through such extreme means could they demonstrate the power and inviolability of their sect.

And.

By eliminating these heretics, their organization can not only increase cohesion but also unite its followers.

Furthermore, it will strengthen the remaining believers' conviction in the existence and greatness of the True God.

In this way.

They would willingly offer money, food, and even women to these priests to express their piety and faith.

Chapter 152 Dealing with Cults: Isn't This a Perfect Match? (+28)

The priest already had a plan in mind.

He waved his hand, signaling the believers to quiet down.

Then, he slowly walked up to FrostNova and her group, scrutinizing them with his cold gaze.

A mocking smile curled at the corner of his lips.

It was as if it were saying, "You heretics, how dare you come to our territory? You've asked for trouble."

He first took a look at the Yeti's clothing.

After noticing the Reunion Movement logo on their clothes, he took a deep breath, then pointed at FrostNova and shouted:

"These guys in front of me are devils who have turned their backs on the True God."

"Look at the symbols on their bodies, they are a cult that wreaks havoc on the land."

His words were like a heavy burden being placed on FrostNova and the others.

This instantly made them "heretics" and "cult members" in the eyes of the villagers.

Upon hearing the high priest's words, Big Bear was instantly filled with rage. His eyes widened, and he roared:

"Ursus swearing, who are you calling a cult?"

"You are the ones who are clearly misleading the villagers here, making them believe in some intangible True God! You are the real cult!"

"I'll smash your head in!"

After saying this, the Big Bear brandished its enormous fist and charged menacingly toward the high priest.

However, before he could even get close to the priest...

The surrounding villagers all stood up.

Armed with sticks and farm tools, they stood in front of the Big Bear without hesitation.
