Alien Knights

Emerson asked suspiciously: "The answer is in this heaven?"

Todd settled down and slowly explained to Emerson: "Whether it is autocratic monarchy or democratic self-government, the problem in the final analysis lies in the changeability and complexity of human nature. Those monarchs, as long as they make a stupid and selfish decision, they can ruin their lives." An empire that has lasted for thousands of years; and citizens, as long as one irrational action, it may bring disaster to the entire ethnic group."

"So, my idea is to create an independent soul space outside the scope of the human material world, and introduce an objective, higher-level system that can impose behavioral and moral constraints on society for the belonging of human beings after death. rules, or laws.”

"This kind of law mainly reviews the words and deeds of human beings during their lifetime, and gives judgments based on the results of good and evil, sending them to heaven and hell."

When Emerson heard this, he was a little puzzled: "This sounds like the Bible and other similar religious teachings, and it doesn't seem to be different."

Todd smiled and shook his head: "It sounds like there is no difference, but the set of rules I established has two biggest advantages over those illusory religions. First, any believer can touch the "soul" to enter heaven and hell at any time, to watch and examine how those who died were judged and divided into heaven and hell."

"In this way, everyone will clearly understand that the law of judgment in the kingdom of heaven is different from the illusory teachings of the Church of the Heavenly Father. The former is real and can be experienced at any time. After personally feeling the law of the kingdom of heaven After the power of God, I believe that every believer will pay attention to his words and deeds, actively do good deeds, and stay away from evil."

Todd said affirmatively: "I have tested the effect of the law of heaven in Froststone City in advance. It turns out that every believer there, after seeing the balance of fate and the Temple of Valor, tends to be more pious in words and deeds." Faith, not selfish humanity."

Emerson nodded: "If believers can feel the power of the kingdom of heaven at all times and experience the consequences of soul judgment, I believe that no one will be so stupid as to ignore what happens after death."

"The second advantage of the laws of the kingdom of heaven is that its rules and content will not change due to human reasons."

"Emerson, you should be deeply touched by the actions of the Holy See. Take the Bible as an example. The content and interpretation of the earliest version of the Bible and the current version of the Bible have been revised and added or subtracted by successive popes with ulterior motives. Second. The purpose of their revision of the Bible is not to improve the teachings, but to consolidate personal religious prestige.”

"Similarly, looking at any kingdom, the previous king or parliament formulated a reasonable regulation, or introduced an important law. After the next king is replaced or the parliament is reorganized, the original Laws are also often overturned or amended."

"And the laws and regulations in the kingdom of heaven will not be changed because of the private will of the preacher. Once it is determined, it will become an eternal and unchanging truth."

"In other words, even if the Church of the Kingdom of Heaven changes the pope, and Muxi City changes the king, they will not have any ability to overthrow the existing laws and seek their own personal gain."

Emerson sighed: "In this way, whether it is the pope or the king, like all mortals, they are the objects of judgment in the kingdom of heaven."

"You're right."

Todd looked at the mountains in the distance, and said quietly: "After experiencing many things, I gradually understand a fact. The human race itself is a combination of contradictions. They have the passion and wisdom to create, but they also have desire and inclination to destroy."

"If human beings are not given a space for activities and a code of conduct, sooner or later, this group will use the weapons they make to destroy themselves."

Emerson shook his head helplessly: "What you said is very reasonable. Through the turmoil in Muxi City this time, I have also seen one thing clearly. Once human beings without faith completely deny the existence of the afterlife, they will Become more utilitarian and extreme. In the face of national honor and personal interests, the vast majority of people will choose the latter. Because in their view, death represents the end. Enjoying life is the true meaning of life.”

Todd took a long breath: "If God is denied and the kingdom of heaven is denied, then human beings will become utilitarians through and through. They will abandon humanity and embrace animality. They will regard material as the only standard of value and no longer care about the whole world. the well-being and future of the community.”

After a moment of silence, Todd looked at Emerson and said calmly: "Tell everyone in Muxi City that the visit to the Kingdom of Heaven is coming to an end. Soon, they will wake up and face the reality again. The choice is to continue to make money and Material slaves are still willing to fight for the kingdom of heaven after death, this is something they need to think about."

Emerson closed his eyes, took a step back, and knelt down on one knee toward Todd.

Todd raised his hands and sent the visitors in the soul space to reality.

As white lights flashed before their eyes, the citizens of Muxi City finally found themselves back on the square.

The setting sun in the sky was still smudged with the sunset glow, and the blood on the high platform continued to drip to the ground.

Everything that seemed to be in another world seemed to happen in just a few seconds.

Waking up from the shock and astonishment, the citizens of Muxi City first looked at each other, then chatted in low voices, and finally turned into loud exclamations.

"The Kingdom of Heaven really exists!"

"I saw an angel!"

"Sinners will fall into hell and never be reborn!"

"Oh my God! I'm guilty! I want to repent! I don't want to go to hell!"

...

Words like these swept the entire square like a storm.

With a deafening roar, everyone shut their mouths at the same time, and cast reverent gazes at the black dragon on the high platform.

Todd looked at the old woman who was begging him for her grandson, and asked in a deep voice, "Did you see that?"

The old woman nodded: "I saw...my son was judged guilty and fell into hell..."

Someone looked at the son of the old woman in the criminal team, and found that the man was already lying on the ground, his eyes wide open in horror, and he was completely out of breath.

Todd stared at the old woman who couldn't see, and said word by word: "For the judgment of each soul, there will be no bias because of his origin. Sin is sin, and innocence is innocence. .”

The old woman knelt down on the ground in the direction of the black dragon, and said with a choked voice: "Thank you, bless you! The merciful holy king!"

Todd stood upright and looked around the crowd in the square.

There are crusaders who are willing to give up their human identity to serve themselves; there are also soldiers of the battle group who have firm beliefs and are eager to enter the sanctuary; there are also tens of thousands of Muxi City citizens who have just returned from heaven and have seen the afterlife. .

Although these people have different appearances and identities, they all have the same belief in their eyes-the kingdom of heaven is the ultimate belonging.

In the dazzling afterglow of the setting sun, the black dragon of Muxi City issued a declaration that will be recorded in history forever to the believers in the city.

"Look at me, mortals! As the Holy King of Muxi City, my duty is to lead you out of vain desires, gather you from all over the place, and bring your souls to the eternal paradise! In order to achieve this goal, I hereby announce that Muxi City will officially join the glory of the Kingdom of God from today, and witness the rise of the Kingdom of God! 』
