I lost the sun god

Although most of these islands have existed for too long, the gods inside have exhausted their power and fell into a deep sleep. Even if Jiang Hao sent the divine power into it, there is no sign of waking up.

But the remaining small part of the island also let him know a lot of secrets about the gods.

The God of Fairness is the vest of the Ruler of Order... The God of Prophecy has no real fall... The God of Purgatory is the incarnation of Asmodeus, the Lord of the Nine Hells, and Asmodeus is a god in the true sense ... The secrets among the gods were uttered from the mouths of these gods who were active in the ancient times, revealing a corner of the treacherous world of the gods.

As the price for obtaining these secrets, Jiang Hao only had his head left in his body. Fortunately, this avatar is made of pure divine power, even if there is only one head left, it will not affect his actions.

In the silver ocean of the astral world, a head slowly approached an island of gods that was hardly blamed.

When he approached, a familiar voice came from this island of gods,

"Your Highness."

Before Jiang Hao could open his mouth to speak, the voice of the god who was only close to being promoted sank, and he asked

"Are you here to take back Longinus, the god-killing spear?"

"Sorry, I lost the whereabouts of this weapon after I woke up."

"I know." Jiang Hao nodded lightly.

He is no longer a newly promoted god. After exchanging secrets with many ancient gods with divine power, he understands that when the gods fall, except for himself falling into the astral world due to the special rules of the multiverse, all other items will be lost. Beyond the Astral.

"Do you want to be resurrected?"

"I think."

Iyeta Cavendir's voice sank, "Since falling into the astral world, my consciousness has been filled with the whispers of countless believers every day. In these whispers, I myself began to become split and distorted. I became unaware of myself, and I had to use deep sleep to fight against these pollutions from beliefs and prevent more selves from appearing in my brain."

"But what scares me the most is the unchanging scenery of the astral world. Before falling asleep, there is a silver ocean, after a deep sleep, there is a silver ocean, today is a silver ocean, tomorrow will be a silver ocean, and even the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow... every day It's the silver ocean."

"No one talks to me, I can only bear all this quietly by myself, full of loneliness."

"So Your Highness, I want to leave, I want to return to the charming and colorful main plane."

After he finished speaking, he smiled self-deprecatingly, "But Your Highness, I failed, I failed your trust, and I have nothing to exchange with you."

Equivalent exchange is the rule of the party.

And he has lost it all.

"But you still have a future." Jiang Hao looked at Iyeta Cavendir and said, "I will provide your priests with divine power and magic in your name on the main plane, gather your faith and accumulate strength for you, After you return, you have to connect your kingdom of God with my kingdom of God to prevent possible enemies."

"Thank you."

Iyeta Cavendir said silently in her heart.

"Also." Jiang Hao reminded, "Be careful of the god of prophecy, he has not really fallen."

……

"Our Tadelgada city's tax revenue has always been the mainstay of the Kingdom of Stryde, and it is an important part of supporting the kingdom's finances, without exception."

"Outsiders call us the city of Tadelgada the brightest jewel in the king's crown."

"But since last year, our number one in Tadelgada has been snatched away by those barbarians in Burgundy."

"The adults in the city were very angry, so they ordered our tax officer to inform you that from today, that is, from this moment, you need to pay a first tax to let our city of Tadelgada take the first place."

"The first tax is calculated according to the head. Each person has to pay ten silver coins every month, and those who are not believers of the God of Cruel Officials will double..."

"Don't think about evading taxes, and don't think about running away. You should know that you can't escape."

In a village outside the city of Tadelgada, the tax official announced to the assembled villagers the new tax policy formulated by the city's bigwigs.

In order to make his words more convincing, the tax official directly moved out the priest of the God of Cruel Officials, "The big shots in the city have gone to the temple of the God of Cruel Officials to ask the priest to take action. Remember the souls of each of you. Once someone Try to escape, and the punishment of the gods will come, and your soul will be cast into hell."

"But Mr. Tax Officer, isn't ten silver coins too much?"

The village chief said with a bitter face.

Ten silver coins a month. They worked hard to farm the land, and they only earned one or two hundred silver coins throughout the year. Plus the previous tax, they couldn't survive.

"Is ten silver coins a lot? Maybe a lot, but since the barbarians in Burgundy can pay that much, I believe you can too."

How can this be compared.

The village chief almost burst into tears. The reason why Burgundy Chester City can pay so much is because after they passed the steam train last year, a large number of merchants gathered and the economy prospered, but Tadelgada City did not pass the steam train. .

The tax officer tightened his collar, and then pulled the hat on the front of the car, "Okay, everyone, don't say anything unnecessary, instead of wasting your energy arguing with me, you should think about how you can raise this tax."

"If the tax you pay this time can exceed that of the barbarians in Burgundy, maybe the bigwigs in the city will exempt you from next year's tax if they are happy!"

"Hey, my lord tax official, let me see you off."

"thank you very much."

The village chief in coarse clothes sent the tax officer away, then returned to the village with a sad face, and said to the waiting villagers

"You heard what the town tax collector just said."

"What do you think we should do?"

Chapter 3 Seventeen: Believe in the God of Agriculture and Don’t Pay Taxes

How to do?

What can we do?

The villagers with anxious and bored faces expressed their bewilderment silently.

Pay taxes?Where do they get the money to pay taxes? After paying all kinds of taxes, the output of the fields every year can only be blamed for barely maintaining food and clothing, so there is no surplus.

If they don't pay taxes, they will be caught by the tax officials in the city and sold as slaves to the nobles.

As for escaping, it's not like they haven't thought about it. No matter where they go, those who can escape will eventually be caught by the tax officials and tortured publicly in the city.

Great God of Cruel Officials, please let the aristocrats reduce their taxes. If you pay taxes, the children in the family will have no food to eat.

Some believers with children at home prayed in their hearts, hoping that the gods could save them, just like the gods save believers in church classics.

"Ten silver coins a month is too much. We don't have that much money at all." A hunter who often went hunting in the mountains said unwillingly: "What the big men in the city collect is not taxes, but our lives."

"Then what can we do?"

The village chief took a deep breath and sat on the ground, "If you don't pay taxes, you will be caught as a slave."
