Vol 3 Chapter 142: Secret prayer meeting
The thick black clouds cover the sky, and the streets near the evening are already dark. Many passers-by are hurrying home, no matter what time or time, except for individual people, it is not a good experience to be wet by the rain. In particular, where medical treatment is backward or not yet universal, wet illness often means death.
These passersby wore similar off-white off-white linen robes. They didn't see extra colors or extra styles. Only a team of patrolling soldiers who passed by from time to time appeared to be different. And sharp spears, let them full of brave and sturdy taste.
西 Lucien, wrapped in a linen robe, followed closely behind a middle-aged man who was walking slowly, and sometimes they turned into an alley, sometimes walking on the street, just like ordinary passers-by.
The sky became more gloomy, the wind began to roar, and the torrential rain seemed to come at any time. The patrol soldiers accelerated their march and hurried back to the barracks in the city.
Stopping in front of a small stone-built two-story building, the middle-aged man vigilantly looked around and confirmed that he didn't pay attention to this side. Then he knocked on the walnut door gently. The rhythm was very unique. First, In the wooden door, Chuiyang knocked twice, and three times on the left near the rotation position, and finally knocked on the door lock, each making different sounds.
I was quiet for ten seconds, a hole suddenly opened in the door, and a light brown eye appeared behind.
The middle-aged man took a step backwards so that the eye could clearly see the gray rose pattern in his horns.
图案 This pattern is so inconspicuous that nobody would have found it if it hadn't been known for a long time.
But Lucien also turned to the side to make the "grey rose" in the corner of the clothes stand out.
The light brown eyes blinked, disappeared at the door, and then the walnut door was slowly opened. A man with a stern shape on his back whispered: "Two respected preachers, the 'crown' is waiting. For you. "
The middle-aged man nodded his head slightly, and flashed into the house while using his eyes to signal Lucian to follow.
Baluchien was not as alert and alert as he was, and opened the door with a smile, and entered calmly, as if visiting ordinary friends and families.
After being forced into the "Gate of the Other World" by the night watchman assassin, Lucien was thrown into this inexplicable "Belitan" city because of the self-explosive attack on the door and the space teleportation was disordered. The protection of the door, the entire person was severely injured by space shocks, not only the body was seriously injured, but even the soul was in a state of weakness. Only the level of ordinary knights and intermediate wizards remained. The equipment on their bodies was also helpful in resisting the space storm. Cracks appear and need to be repaired before use.
However, Lucian had good luck. He did not encounter high-level clerics or cardinals in the church, nor did he encounter false gods and monsters. He was taken in by a kind old grandfather "Norton" and after two months of cultivation After that, the magic power and the level of knights were restored as before. The only problem was that magic items such as Holm crown rings that were worn on the body at the time needed to find special materials to repair. Of course, the legendary "Sun Crown" and the nine-level "Sun" The "scepter" exerted a level of "capability," without any trauma.
Similarly, the "frost" and "pale justice mask" in the storage bag are still intact. Even the grandfather of "Norton" has only seen the ordinary person after the transformation of Lucian.
In the past two months, Lucian had not encountered a magician or a clergyman of truth theology, nor had they heard of them. It seemed that they were far away from the city, so far there were no rumored stories. If the strange feeling of suppressing the mental force field existed in the teacher Fernando's mouth, Lucian doubted whether he had crossed into other alien space.
From the grandfather of "Norton", Lucien knew the situation of the city of "Belitan". It is located on the "Eldo" seashore. It is the capital and economic center of the entire Eldo peninsula. People ruled and established a complete kingdom of Balear, worshiping the "God of Flame and Destruction" Afando, but more than a hundred years ago, the huge "Akonoma" empire struck across the sea and conquered the place. The "God of Flame and Destruction" Afando was also defeated and banished by Anantans, the "lord of war" believed by the empire.
The servants of the Anknoma Empire declared that Afando had been completely killed in order to dissolve the Baalian faith.
Because the former "Governor of Eldo" stationed by the "Ankoma" empire was arrogant and treated the Baalites as slaves. The smoke on the peninsula continued. From time to time, there were rebels and other gods that Afando favored. The insurgents appeared, but because of the strength of the Ankonoma Empire, the Lord of War was an extremely horrible "god," and these protests were suppressed by chalk.
These things were originally unrelated to Lucien. He was preparing to be careful, collect information on the surrounding terrain and kingdom without revealing himself, and find the trail of the magic council, so that security could be guaranteed—a kind of suppressing mental force field The strange feeling of the same also suppressed by magnetic messaging, Lucian estimated that signals more than ten kilometers will be too poor to connect.
Therefore, under the premise of no specific information, Lucian did not dare to set off casually. Who knows whether he will directly break into the place controlled by the truth or the blood race, and the deformation mask can not be concealed by others, but the cardinals cannot be concealed. Can not hide from the Pope and Prince Dracula.
However, Grandpa Norton, who has already entered the last stage of his life, seems to think that Lucien's literacy over the past two months has crushed the young men, teenagers, and children he adopted, and can speak fluent Paralel. Obviously, the loyal Baal people, the Anconoma Empire, forcibly promoted the "Anuo language," unless they were cultivated from a young age, and usually practiced because of the longing for the independent kingdom of Baal, no young person could say So fluent in Baal, he passed on a secret identity to Lucian before his death.
身份 This identity is the seventh disciple of the incarnation of the mysterious organization "Secret Prayer Meeting", the "God of Flame and Destruction".
Although Lucien said that it was all due to the magic of "knowing the language", considering that she was alone here, it was much more convenient for an organization to provide information than relying on her own, so she agreed, after all, because the insurgency continued, The city of Bolitan is under the dual high-pressure surveillance of "Governor Erdo" and "Temple of War". The way of pretending to be a deceitful scam is not feasible. Relying on a deformed mask to change its identity and mix it with the high-level Ankonoma colony to find information can only It is a temporary move, and it is easy to be exposed if time is delayed for more than one day.
Even without Norton's identity protection on the bright side, Lucian would have been interrogated many times, and Governor Erdo was rumored to be a hybrid of God and man, who could use the "power of God," like the high priest of the Temple of War. It is equivalent to having two ordinary cardinals and even cardinals of grade 9 guarding the place-there is no crazy magician in this world, and no blood knights, but some pseudo-gods are often promiscuous, and many descendants are born, and they also Features similar to Blood Knight.
Ordinary humans can only be promoted by becoming servants and priests, and the army can only be used to deal with ordinary people. There is no way to take the "heroes" of the **** blood. The only thing that is fortunate is that the number of gods is scarce and they are not unemployed. The suppression of the rebellion is not too loud, so don't bother the noble gods.
Follow the fifth disciple "Ann Hughes" through the hall, walk to the back of the building, and watch him open a secret door, revealing the upward stairs, but Lucian looks like an opera that has nothing to do with indifference. But indifferently, I was thinking whether I should find an opportunity to study the incarnation of the "God of Flame and Destruction". This is the first time I have encountered the "incarnation of a false god," which is a great opportunity to obtain first-hand resources. This is one of the main reasons why Lucien joined the "Private Prayer Meeting".
Behind the secret door is an upward staircase. It seems that it will always lead to the ceiling and the mezzanine on the second floor. It can be reached halfway. Anthus suddenly stops and opens a secret door again. This time it is a downward staircase. .
Quiet and silent, the two descended for a long time, and finally a bronze gate appeared in front of them, all of which were grotesque flame patterns.
Pressing his hand on one of the flame patterns, Aughs glowed a red light on her body, and pushed the bronze door open. Behind the door was a hall burning a row of braziers. It was empty, except for the stone pillars. There is a round table.
There are thirteen chairs on the round table On the top is a gold throne inlaid with rubies. No one is seated. On each side are six silver seats with similar flame patterns.
At this point, five people were seated on the twelve silver seats, headed by a man with a thick beard and white hair. He looked at Lucien and said, "According to Norton's recommendation before his death, the great flame and the **** of destruction. Revealed, you, Leviathan, will become the seventh disciple. "
Leviathan is a pseudonym for Lucien based on the inspiration of the Devil.
但 "But you have not yet demonstrated your ability and have not contributed to God. In the coming year, we will examine you. Until you pass the test, you will not be able to obtain the 'spiritual seed' given by the gods.
"Yes." Lucian was curious about the "spiritual seed." Is this the key to cracking the mystery of the magic? Do you want to catch other disciples or directly capture the fire and destruction of God?
老 The old man said, and gave Lucian a slight glance: "Sit down and wait for the flame UL for you, now we have more important things."
"What is it?" An Hughes thought that today was just the baptism of the seventh disciple.
"Discussion of the way to the future, the way to restore the spirit to the spirit completely," said the old man, the first disciple, Jacob.
