Fantasy Simulator - Chapter 835

Counting your fingers, thousands of years have passed since the time when the world changed.

In these thousands of years, the outside world has changed rapidly, and new changes have occurred almost every few decades.

After just a few thousand years, the earth has changed a lot.

In the outside world, productive forces have exploded. Although people are still oppressed, their lives have changed drastically.

The increase in productivity has brought about changes in the other side.

This also transformed the outside world into another look.

At this moment, most areas in the ancestor world already have the familiar appearance of Chen Heng.

Thinking that in a few more years, the world will continue to move forward, and it will become what Chen Heng is familiar with.

But within the realm of the two gods, the God of Shadows and the Lord of Nature, everything remained stagnant.

This shows a similar appearance to when the bloodline ancestor still existed.

In the Cardo Empire, people still live in the way they used to. Nobles rule everything. If a commoner is born, then there are only two ways out. Either escape from the Cardo Empire, or rely on faith and become a priest of a god.

From now on, there is no other way.

At the beginning, the arrival of the God of Shadows brought changes to the country, allowing people who could only rely on blood to have a second way to become stronger by relying on the power of faith.

But after so many years passed, the bloodline nobles had already disintegrated and disappeared under Chen Heng’s methods.

However, the church that used to be a way out for people has now become another big mountain that weighs on people, directly replacing the status of the blood nobles.

Although the changes in the outside world are rapid, everything within the Cardo Empire remains the same, without any change.

Why is this?

Regarding this question, the God of Shadows and the Lord of Nature remained silent, but after watching the whole process, they both understood the reason.

It has been said before that the reason why the order of the bloodline nobles is unbreakable is because at the top of the bloodline aristocracy, there is the existence of the famous ancestor.

Ordinary civilians initiate changes, which may revolutionize the life of monarchs and emperors, but they will never shake the first ancestors at the top.

Not to mention the ancestors, even if a fourth-order existence is placed in front of them, unless they have an equivalent existence, they only rely on ordinary people, no matter how many are ants.

Correspondingly, this is also the case within the Cardo Empire.

After thousands of years of evolution, priests are everywhere in the Cardo Empire, and there are churches everywhere.

These priests adhered to the teachings of the Shadow God and were very religious to the Shadow God, but they still hindered the transformation of the lower layers.

Because of their existence, the upper layers of the entire Cardo Empire are unbreakable.

This is not an ordinary world.

If it were an ordinary world, conflicts would inevitably break out between royal power and divine power, and the so-called belief was just a banner, which would make the conflict even more acute.

But in the real world of gods, this conflict becomes digestion.

When theocracy is so powerful that no force can resist it, there is no way to talk about change.

Of course, the two gods of shadows did give the majority of believers a way out.

Theoretically speaking, within the Cardo Empire, only the faith is sufficiently devout that even a civilian born can rise to the top, and it is not impossible to become a Pope.

This is indeed an improvement over the past.

But it doesn’t help the overall form.

What is screened out through this path is the ability to be devout to belief, which competes with the devotion to the **** of shadows, and does not help the production of the entire society.

The priests selected through this path may have powerful power, but this power itself will not be used in production, but will be used to suppress the changes at the bottom.

This is completely different from the outside world.

Over time, everything changed.

The God of Shadows looked at his earthly kingdom with mixed emotions.

In these thousands of years of observation, he has watched the changes within the Cardo Empire with his own eyes.

In the Cardo Empire, when the notice of the bloodline nobles was broken, everything was so prosperous.

The old order was broken, the people were liberated, and as long as ordinary mortals had enough piety, they could also be promoted to their own rank and become rulers above.

Because of the existence of gods, these elevated priests must be devout, so they will also devoutly worship the teachings of gods, so they are more cordial to the people at the bottom, and they are much softer than the blood nobles of the past.

But over time, everything changed.

As a priest ascends, a new ruling class begins to rise.

The priests themselves do make piety contributions to the gods, but that doesn’t mean they won’t benefit themselves.

Even if they don’t care, what about their relatives and children?

The gods are high above, but mortals always have concerns and cannot let go.

No matter how devoutly contributed to the gods, the love for children is always inscribed in the bones.

And the relatives of these priests will inevitably occupy a lot of resources and control the upward channel.

The way forward for ordinary people is getting narrower and narrower.

Of course, a devoutly dedicated priest can stand out at any time.

But what does this have to do with the vast majority of civilians?

Also, do priests really only need piety?

not necessarily.

In fact, piety is only a prerequisite for becoming a priest.

But only piety, can only feel the existence of the gods, but can not receive divine power.

If you want to truly attract divine power and become a priest, you still need enough qualifications.

This is destined to be a minority, and most people are still under the mountain, constantly being squeezed.

At the beginning, it was fine, because at that time the bloodline nobles had just been eliminated, the population did not multiply, and the space occupied by the priests was not too large, so it was naturally a thriving scene.

However, as time passed, the population at the bottom continued to multiply, the contradiction between man and land gradually became acute, and the priests at the upper level occupied more and more promotion channels, and the people at the bottom could not see the slightest hope.

Various contradictions have become acute, and turmoil occurs almost every moment in the entire Cardo Empire.

At this time, the priests of the God of Shadows replaced the bloodline nobles of the past and became the executors of suppressing the unrest.

Compared with the bloodline nobles of the past, what they did cannot be said to be exactly the same, and it can be said to be almost the same.

The only difference may be that they are God’s shepherds after all. Considering the sustainable development of faith, it may be easier to start?

I guess so.

As far as the God of Shadows can see, there has been little change in the Cardo Empire throughout the thousands of years.

Because all the changes were suppressed by the priests of the **** of shadows, who possessed absolute power, they disappeared without even a single spark.

Without these revolutions and without the outbreak of productive forces, all kinds of contradictions cannot be solved from the root cause, and we can only take a temporary approach and kill a part of the population on a regular basis, thereby delaying the relationship between barren productivity and excessive population. contradiction between.

After a turmoil, the population that originally appeared to be flooded dropped a lot, and the contradiction was temporarily covered up until it broke out again a few decades later.

When this is not the right way after all, it leads to many problems.

One problem is that social contradictions are always sharp, and they exist in all aspects of the Cardo Empire. People in the upper class are drunk and dream of death, and they only know how to pray and enjoy life all day long.

The eyes of the people at the bottom have lost their light, and there is no road ahead for them to go, so they can only live in ignorance.

Another problem is that the sacrifices to the gods gradually no longer regard the people at the bottom as part of themselves.

Perhaps the priests of the first generation could still regard themselves as the same people as the people at the bottom, but as time went by, the priests continued to suppress the people at the bottom, their hands were stained with blood, and their mentality would naturally change.

Priests are also extraordinary, and powerful priests are also very long-lived.

During their long life, a slaughter begins almost every once in a while.

Over time, it is normal for your mentality to change.

The **** of shadows watched this situation happen.

It’s ironic too.

The power of the gods needs to be supplemented by belief, so the number of people at the bottom who are the source of belief, the more the better.

At the same time, they also required their priests to treat the people like shepherds and manage the believers for the gods.

But as a result, it gradually evolved into this way.

Because of the power given by the gods, the priests, who are shepherds, eventually became accomplices in suppressing the people.

And those people, under the strong belief of the Cardo Empire, are actually believers of the God of Shadows himself.

His own priests to suppress their own believers, this operation is also no one.

If other gods in the world of gods knew about it, I am afraid they would all laugh out loud.

For gods, the more followers, the better.

However, the priests of the God of Shadows had to suppress the riots on a regular basis, suppressing their believers in an almost massacre-like way, resulting in the number of believers being maintained within a certain range.

The most important thing is that this is actually not impossible.

It only takes a few changes to change today’s production methods and increase productivity to solve the problem at the root.

But because of the existence of the priest class, this kind of change could not happen at all.

And it was none other than the **** of shadows who created the class of priests and gave them their dominance.

The appearance of this situation made the mood of the God of Shadows extremely complicated.

Some people may think that since the Cardo Empire cannot produce enough changes to increase productivity, it is alright to actively absorb the results of changes from the outside world, right?

The same doesn’t work.

Change is sometimes not just about technology, but a sensational revolution.

Just like a normal world, in order to achieve a substantial increase in productivity, in addition to technological reforms, the more important thing is to eliminate the strata that are behind the times and throw them into the garbage heap of history.

The so-called aristocratic class, isn’t feudal society so finished?

Otherwise, the situation has changed, but it has never really changed.

In the Cardo Empire, the class that hindered the development of the times was nothing but the priest class left by the God of Shadows.

So here comes the problem.

For ordinary people, who has the ability to destroy their lives?

What a joke.

Even an ordinary priest, as long as he has a level of power, is enough to match an army of thousands.

Not to mention those high-level priests.

With this level of power, no matter how you look at it, ordinary people cannot defeat it.

Ordinary people, no matter how much they jumped, would never be able to resist them.

This is also the reason for the silence of the **** of shadows.

In these thousands of years, he also wanted to change this situation.

But even as a **** himself, when he wants to change this situation, he is also powerless to do it, and he doesn’t know where to start.

At this time, he finally understood something.

“I see…..”

Standing beside Chen Heng, he sighed deeply.

If before, he still didn’t quite understand Chen Heng’s previous practices, then he can fully understand it now.

A class that cannot be defeated and cannot be eliminated is simply a nightmare existence.

If there is no comparison, it may be acceptable, but after looking at the thriving outside world, everything is moving in a good direction, and then looking at the dead Kado Empire, which seems to be unchanged for thousands of years, there is a kind of Inexplicable complex feeling.

The Lord of Nature also remained silent.

What she rules is the territory occupied by the ancestors of the ancient trees in the past. At this moment, it is like the Cardo Empire, the **** of shadows, and it is also stagnant, completely different from the outside world.

Most of the Ancestral World has begun to enter the industrial age, and the territory of the two of them is still stuck in the past, as if nothing has changed.

This made the Lord of Nature think of the world of the gods.

The same is true of everything in the world of the gods. After hundreds of thousands of years, nothing in the world has changed much.

In the past, everyone felt that everything was the way it should be, because they didn’t see the wider world.

But now, after seeing all this in front of UU reading www.uukanshu.com, it makes people feel extraordinarily twisted.

Perhaps the reason why the world of gods has become like this is also rooted in the gods.

The same is true of this world.

Thinking about it now, if Chen Heng and the God of Shadows had not divided their territories and confined their powers to areas such as the Cardo Empire, I am afraid that the current pattern of the world would have become like that of the world of gods. Medium.

Of course, it could be different.

Because Chen Heng has done a lot in this world.

Strictly speaking, any class that cannot be changed for a long time will play a role similar to the bloodline aristocracy, but it is not as thorough.
