One Piece: Holy Cult

Chapter 178 Dreamland (Part [-])
"The god of miracles."

Listening to the shouts of the believers, Uriel silently recited it twice in his heart, with a smile on his lips.

Since one decides to establish a church and cultivate believers, one must first establish an object of faith for the world, that is, a god.

It is the duty of believers to call on the name of God and walk in the way of God, and it is also the basis for gathering believers to establish a church.

But although Uriel wants to gather believers and beliefs, he does not intend to push himself to the throne of gods.

Gods, because of their loftiness, regard all things as dogs, exist clearly but are out of reach, so they are revered and worshipped.

Everything revolves around God, is born of God, and is controlled by God, but it cannot affect God in the slightest.

Regardless of the changes of time and space, the gods will live on it forever. This is the god that people imagine and recognize.

A guy who appears by his side every day, who is as inseparable from eating and drinking as ordinary people, people will never recognize his identity as a god, let alone firmly believe in him.

Just thinking about it this way, Uriel felt that being a god was far worse than being an incarnation of a god.

There are not too many myths and stories about gods transforming a bit of divine power into human beings, or pouring it into the body of a mortal to walk in the world, and it can be accepted by ordinary people.

The incarnation is the spokesperson of God, spreading love for God, and being able to get close to believers, becoming one of them, and making believers get closer to God.

At the same time, he is unrestricted in action and very free, which is what Uriel wants.

He thought about it for a while, and finally decided to do it himself, creating an empty god as the object of worship of the church and believers. As for himself, he would be the founder of the church and the pope.

Of course, I will not forget to add various titles such as the patron of the gods, the incarnation of the gods, the spokesperson of the gods, etc. to my title to strengthen my authority.

After thinking for a long time, which lasted seven days, the "God of Miracles" or the name of the god was finally released under Uriel's decision.

Soon, he will let the whole sea know that the reason why "White Priest" Uriel is so powerful is because he, as a follower of the "God of Miracles", has been inspired by the gods and is a little boy created by the gods. Miracle.

And just like him, under the leadership of Duke, the tens of thousands of Marlan people who are about to set sail to sea, as new believers in the "God of Miracles", have just completed their first miracle and are starting to go to the next one. journey.

Dozens of ships and tens of thousands of people, sailing at sea is undoubtedly a huge target, and it is easy to be discovered after the world government reacts.The ability of the Holy Angel Statue alone is not enough to escort them.

Uriel sat on Duke's flagship and continued to follow, planning to come up with a complete strategy for them to escape the pursuit of the world government.

After much deliberation, the best way is to break it up into pieces, disperse them, hide them everywhere in the sea, and reduce the targets to the minimum.Until Uriel found a suitable place to build the safest base camp for the believers.

He thought about temporarily leading them to the Kingdom of God.However, the kingdom of God with a radius of only 5 kilometers is too low for the godhead of the "God of Miracles", and its area is not as large as that of Sama City.It is inevitable that believers living in it will be more like captivity and imprisonment.

But before breaking it into pieces, Uriel had to add more self-protection power to his followers of Marlan.

After all, there is only one holy angel statue, and it can protect Duke's unit at most.

After thinking about it, Uriel thought it would be a good choice to choose a few guardian knights among the believers.

When the night of the first day of the journey came, the exhausted Marlan people fell into a deep sleep. Even the night watchmen who should cheer up couldn't bear the weight of their eyelids and fell asleep in a daze.

A dream enveloped everyone like night.

The people of Marlan woke up in a dream, and found that tens of thousands of them lived together in the same wonderful world.

Holy angels shine brightly in the sky, conveying to them the oracle of the "God of Miracles".

"Believers who are favored by God" The voice of the holy angel statue is like a dancing breeze.

"You are God's beloved and creators of miracles. God watches your actions, delights in your achievements, and does not hesitate to bestow mercy on you."

"Just like the miracles you created with your own hands, this kindness requires you to win it yourself."

The holy angel flutters like wings, and one day the wind blows, blowing away the fog that permeates the entire dream world, revealing the majestic mountains behind the fog, and many narrow paths between the mountains.

"Go. Go on these roads. The trials God prepared for you are just after these roads. Pass the trials to get the gift of the God of Miracles."

Sleep and dreams, as well as the so-called trials that followed, are naturally illusions created by Uriel in the minds of believers with divine magic.

After saving these believers in Sama City, Uriel gained a large number of faith points, and there was nothing left at this time, all of which were used to make statues of the apologist knights.

More than ten guardian knight statues can instantly create more than ten strong men who can protect the safety of believers.

Once the inheritance of the guardian knight is obtained, even the lowest level can improve the strength of the inheritor in all aspects.With physical fitness alone, one person can defeat a hundred ordinary navy soldiers at the same time.

According to the calculation method in the original book, this is the initial attribute as high as 1000 power.

In addition to the enhanced physical ability, the fundamental strength of the guardian knight is the more powerful and infinitely powerful power of the Holy Light.

They are born with the ability to convert physical strength into holy light to achieve healing, protection and attack.

More than a dozen junior guardian knights are enough to lead all the Marlan people, disperse into several teams, hide safely in the vast sea, avoid the pursuit of the world government, and deal with some relatively weak dangers on the sea.

What's more, it is quite easy for them to improve their strength. If they have nothing to do, they can do good deeds and quickly become a strong one.

The trial in the illusion lasted all night.

Every believer has experienced many dangers and trials in dreams.

There are only a dozen places for the guardian knights, and Uriel can only use trials to select the believers with the most pious beliefs and the most determined will to become the inheritors of the statues of the guardian knights.

Into the mountain and then out of the mountain.

In the end, among the tens of thousands of Marlan survivors, more than a dozen believers walked out of the mountains first, and a shining statue of a guardian knight appeared in front of their eyes, as high as a mountain peak.

The moment they walked out, the statue suddenly turned into a beam of light and fell into the palms of everyone.

After the last guardian knight statue found its inheritor, it represented the end of the trial.

The dream dissipated, everyone woke up from the dream, and found that the sky had already brightened, and it was already the next morning.

Rubbing their sleepy eyes, everyone seemed to have not woken up from the wonderful experience in the dream.

Suddenly, someone yelled in surprise.

A believer who passed the test woke up and found that the statue of the guardian knight obtained in his dream actually appeared in his clasped hands.
