The Church of St. Nicholas has a towering height than the city wall and a larger area than a small town. The entire Church of St. Nicholas is made of pure white marble, with uniform furniture and decoration made of blood wood, and Use the most high-quality light crystals as embellishments to illuminate every spacious room, and use huge crystals as the decoration of the dome.
The secret of St. Nicholas’ Church is called a miracle, and its secret lies in this crystal. Exquisite craftsmen use compound crystals as the decoration of the dome, combined with the movement of celestial bodies, geographical location, light refraction and other factors, each piece of compound crystal is engraved with the scene of the important Holy War in history.
When the sun shines from in the sky, passing through these double crystals, on the floor of the prayer room of St. Nicholas Church, during the Holy War, countless fanatics graciously went to justice. , Will change with the passage of time and the angle of illumination, in the form of a "frame-by-frame animation", presented in front of these devoutly praying believers one after another.
The believers who are fortunate enough to pray in this church are all enthusiastically looking forward to being able to be engraved in a piece of double crystal in the church someday in the future. , His heroic posture of participating in the Holy War can also be remembered forever.
The church of St. Nicholas was built after Pope Martin Louis took power. At that time, Martin Luiz, who had just returned from the battlefield of World War I, under the circumstance of the national economic weakness after the battle conclusion, despite the opposition of the people, amassed the nation’s wealth and spent countless manpower, financial and material resources, and finally built this "miracle of faith". ". When this miracle was officially completed, all the people of the Parada Empire were proud of it. The believers of Light God across the continent were also greatly encouraged, and the people's piety became more and more determined. No longer doubt Martin Luiz’s foresight, his reputation has also reached Peak!
From the moment St. Nicholas Church was built, for Griffin Heart Imperial Capital, the structure of the entire Imperial Capital has also changed over time. The political and economic aspects of Imperial Capital The He Cultural Center began to center on the Church of St. Nicholas and radiated all around. Every time it was expanded, the city would have an extra ring of city wall, from the innermost ring to the outermost seven rings. Layers.
The mansion sandwiched between the ring and the ring, as well as the nobles who lived in it, gradually used the number of rings to show and measure the status of each other. The face of the noble family with the same surname, the marriage match between the noble’s descendants, and the property distribution rights of the clan and branch descendants. It can be said that the three most important life goals of the aristocrat in this life are completely detained by these seven rings.
And this universal social phenomenon is collectively referred to by later scholars as the ring of the Griffin Heart!
At this time, in the very center of this "Gryphon Heart Ring", above the main hall of St. Nicholas Church, an old man dressed in a gold-studded papal costume and his face covered with traces of time, He was closing his eyes and praying prayerfully towards the huge Light God statue in the center of the church.

Jan of Arc is her name.
About a quarter of an hour later, a strong spatial magic wave erupted from the palm of Martin Louise's palm. After the wave was over, the old man made a cross on his chest and ended the prayer. His expression seemed to be a little tired, and after slowly turning around, the old man's slightly hoarse voice reached Joan of Arc word by word.
"Light God is here. I just got the oracle. Michael Archangel has come to the world, and he is now with Rex on his way to the city of Alexandria. Jeanne, I will You are urgently recalled from the borders of the country, the River of Tolstoy, in the hope that you, as Saintess, will go first to meet them."
"Light God is on, I will do your will!" The girl lowered Head, her eyes flashed with pious and firm conviction.
The old man was nodded, very satisfied with Joan’s pious attitude, he continued: "The accompanying convoy is ready, you can set off now. Remember, Archangel Michael is away from Light God In the recent Seraphim, serving him is equivalent to serving Light God. Don’t neglect it anyway!"
