Chapter 166 Gods
Paladin, who was completely frightened, looked at the huge mural blankly. Obviously, the person who carved this mural must have a good understanding of, and even seen the Almighty Eye. Because the arc of light swinging around the Almighty Eye is exactly the same as Paladin's own! "How is it possible...it must be a coincidence." Paladin looked at the Almighty Eye. He gave out explanations that even he didn't believe. With his eyes a little confused, he just turned his head to avoid looking at the mural, but happened to see the murals depicting various characters on the aisles on both sides!
A slim and beautiful female magician. An old man with a long beard and a cane with his eyes closed. A very handsome warrior, wearing armor and holding a long sword, with mist surrounding his body. There was also a young scholar with an ugly face and thin body, holding a mask in his hand. Paladin turned around and looked at the figures in confusion. He seemed to feel that masses of fog enveloped him from the temple, making it impossible for him to distinguish his direction.
Paladin, who had a dull look on his face, took a step back slightly, but almost fell down. After stabilizing his body, he looked down and saw the same murals carved on the ground! Called the ball of light back. The murals on the ground gradually became clearer. But the shock that this mural brought to him was stronger than the lifelike Almighty Eye on the stone slab!
"Why...appear here!" Paladin murmured like a dream. Unconsciously, he took a few steps back in an attempt to see the whole situation clearly. Suddenly, a complete totem of Kabbalah's fallen tree appeared before his eyes. Thump thump thump! Paladin took several steps back. With a face full of shock, he unknowingly passed through a door. Only then did he realize that he had arrived in a hall!
Suddenly, Xu felt someone entering. Magic balls flashing with gentle light suddenly appeared on both sides of the hall! This dark hall became bright in an instant! Paladin pinched off the golden ball of light and looked up at everything in the rotunda. Nothing! That's right, there is nothing on both sides of this circular hall! Paladin stepped forward with heavy feet. He has never seen a temple that not only does not worship gods, but also does not even have a bad reputation for gods! But a sudden change happened just when Paladin stepped into the center of the hall!
Boom! The surrounding walls suddenly made a deafening sound! Paladin's expression changed, and he was about to be alert to possible enemies. The stone slabs on the wall surrounding the hall suddenly twisted and deformed, and five stone statues suddenly appeared! Eyes widened! After Paladin saw these five stone statues, an unprecedented shock swept through his mind! I saw these five stone statues, and the one in the middle was an expressionless old man.
Paladin will never forget that he became a priest and has been working in the church for more than half a year! This stone statue is clearly Enos, the main god believed by humans! Enos, the God of Light and Justice! Paladin didn't have time to wonder why the statue of Enos was here, and why the statue was expressionless instead of as gentle or kind as he had seen before!
At this moment, Paladin immediately turned his head to look, and saw two stone statues on the left. A strange creature with the lower body of a centaur and the upper body of a female elf. This creature was holding a handful of soil, and a small seedling grew out of the soil. His face turned out to be expressionless just like Enos! Looking at this costume and the sapling in his hand, Paladin probably knew that this was Iacono, the main god revered by the elves! Next to Iacono, there is the lower body of a fish, and the upper body of a rugged man holding a steel fork, looking up at the sky with an expressionless face. Representing the god of sea, storm and thunder, Natsius.
Needless to say, Paladin also guessed who the stone statue on the other side was. A warrior figure covered in armor, with no hair or skin visible, holding a huge sword and war hammer. It should be Marcus, the god of war and forging worshiped by the barbarians in the north, the orcs and the dwarves all over the continent. The only thing that surprised Paladin was that Marcus, the God of War, actually wore an iron mask. He couldn't understand. Do orcs like to worship a god who doesn't even want to show his face? But when he got to the last one, Paladin realized that the stone statue of the God of War was already very good. …,
Presumably the mask of the God of War, Belial, the god of darkness and the undead. It really confused Paladin. He was wearing a robe, but his arms and legs were missing. What was revealed from Mighty's robe was a head without any hair. What makes people feel even more weird is that Belair has no face! That's right, the smooth face on the stone statue of Bel Air has no facial features or eyebrows. As clean as a plate! The only thing that caught people's attention was the erect eye on his face.
"Enos, Iacono, Nasius, Marcus, Belair! The five main gods of all races on the continent! Why, why are all their stone statues displayed here!" Paladin surrounded the gods and felt It's incredible. Because not only the Holy See of Enos, but other believers are rejected and attacked as heretics. Including the other four major churches, believers who believed in their respective gods were extremely angry and rejected other pagans. But the conflict between believers is so obvious and violent, why do the main gods they believe in live together peacefully?
What struck Paladin even more strangely was that none of the stone statues of the five gods had any expressions! Why no expression? Paladin couldn't help but feel that something was slightly wrong. It is impossible for believers to carve gods expressionless. Not to mention the other three, the God of War and the God of Darkness either wear masks or have no faces at all. Do these five major gods have no expressions at all? Or maybe, this is actually a hint...
Just when Paladin was daydreaming secretly. Something terrible happened to those five statues! The next moment, the statues of the five gods suddenly emitted brilliance of different colors. Five pairs of huge and empty eyes suddenly seemed to open up space and appear in front of the statue! "Ahhhh!" Paladin was startled, but then he could feel the overwhelming sense of oppression emanating from these five pairs of empty eyes!
It's a sense of oppression that makes people unable to help but worship! His knees weakened. Paladin looked so horrified that he couldn't help but kneel to the ground. He placed his hands on the ground and lowered his head heavily. Big beads of sweat fell rapidly from his forehead. In fact, Paladin can even feel the wail of his body's bones and the fear of the golden elements around him!
"Ah..." Suddenly, a sigh came from the huge eyes that appeared in front of the statue of Enos. A vague voice that sounded like a man or a woman, with no clear distinction of gender, made Paladin's hair stand on end: "Another candidate..." As soon as the words fell, Belair's eyes immediately made a sound: " The law and the iron law of the timeline. What is destined will happen. This is our priesthood, our duty, our final meaning..." "This human... understands our language, he is the second to master it. Rune mortals..."
It is very strange that Paladin has never heard of this language at all, and even does not know it at all! But it is completely understandable and understandable! Moreover, what made Paladin fearful and angry was that these five guys suppressed him casually and then chatted among themselves. Completely ignoring Paladin's feelings! But the most helpless thing is that Paladin can't resist this power at all!
"Who... are you! Say your name!" Although he couldn't move, Paladin still snorted stubbornly. But the response was silence. It wasn't until half a moment later that Paladin felt like he could move again. He immediately stood up with difficulty and gasped for air! He looked up at the five teams of empty eyes floating in the air around him.
"We have no name, no gender, no appearance. Only the miserable sheep give us names. Enos, Belair, Marcus, Nasius, Iacono. We are the masters, the ones in control. In sheep terms, that is… God.”
"You...you are a god? Are you gods? You said you are Enos? Do you think I am a fool?" Paladin stared and yelled angrily as if he had been fooled, but no matter how much Paladin insulted and humiliation. The self-proclaimed Eye of God of Enos, the Eye of God that emits white light, is very plain, and even says without any emotion: "Candidate, you have seized the opportunity and have the qualifications. You stand out from the sheep. , do you have the consciousness to abandon everything?"
