Chapter 415: Climb Up
Although the cliffs are full of windswept ravines, no one has climbed up to the temple from ancient times to the present day.
"Dampsey, the High Priest wants me to convey something to you. Lydia said suddenly, as if she had heard something.
Li Lin had just recovered from the shock of seeing the cliff and the temple, and hurriedly said, "I want to hear about it." ”
"You only have one day, no matter what means, please use your own strength to enter the temple. After Lydia said this, she waved her hand, and a fourth-level wind magic, the Wind Wings, appeared behind her.
"Remember, you only have one day, and when it's up, you'll have to leave Windy Hollow. Lydia said indifferently in mid-air, "Although I appreciate your potential, this is the original intention of the High Priest, and I must respect her. ”
Li Lin narrowed his eyes, "The High Priest doesn't like me?"
Lydia was silent for a moment and nodded, "She just recruited a student not long ago. ”
"I see. Li Lin said clearly: "I'm afraid that after I enter the temple, I will rob her of the resources of her students, right?" ”
"It's good that you know about it, you don't need to say it. Lydia reminded, "This is the High Priest's first test of you, and if you behave well, you may have a chance to change her impression of you." ”
"Here I have one thing to ask the Prophet. Li Lin groaned and said, "In the temple, you are similar to the status of the high priest, right?"
"So to speak. "But my job is to listen to the will of the gods, and she is to guide the future direction of the temple, and in a way, I have no more say than the high priest." ”
Because the god of the storm has fallen.
This last sentence was not said by Lydia, but Li Lin knew it in her heart.
Because the god of storms has fallen, the status of the prophet has also been affected, and now that the prophet has brought back a child with potential, the high priest has set this meaningless test.
It can be seen that it is general.
Lydia also had her own difficulties, as she cared more about balance and unity within the temple than Dampsie IV, so she would not fight against the High Priest.
The God of the Storm has fallen, and if the High Priest and the Prophet fight again, then the Temple of the Storm will really be over.
Li Lin could understand Lydia's distress, so he didn't blame her.
"Dampsey, here's a reminder that you can only use fourth-level wind magic to enter the temple, but the wind here is too strong, and you can't come up without practicing hundreds of times...... The day is too short, so do your best. Lydia let out a rare sigh at the end, "Even if you fail, I will send you back to Alean safely, and you don't have to worry too much about the High Priest being against you." ”
With that, the Storm Prophet spread his wings and entered the temple.
Li Lin looked at the temple in the cliff and narrowed his eyes.
"It's all here, how could I give up...... A mere high priest wants to stop me?"
Generally speaking, each temple will have a high priest and prophet, with the high priest leading the temple and the prophet listening to the will of the gods.
Below the two supreme heads are the bishops, and the number of bishops in each temple varies, and the one with the most bishops is the Temple of Light, which has as many as twelve.
The Temple of the Storm has only four bishops.
The number of priests further down the bishop was even greater, and there were more than twenty priests in the Temple of the Storm alone. For the temple, the priests were already in the upper middle class and an indispensable backbone.
With the exception of the high priest, prophets, bishops, and priests, the rest of the temple were collectively referred to as the clergy.
The clergy is the grassroots of the temple, and many external affairs require the clergy to move, so the temple will generally find a way to summon people with potential to be the clergy.
The clergy system does not have a clear hierarchy, at least not in the Temple of the Storm, and the Temple of Light is subdivided into Inquisitors, Blessings, or Priests, which will not be repeated here.
In short, compared to other temples, the Temple of the Storm is relatively simple, with a high priest and a prophet, four bishops, twenty-six priests, and the rest of the clergy.
If Li Lin can successfully join the Storm God Temple, he will also start from the most basic clergy.
The premise, of course, is that he enters the temple within a day.
As Lydia said, the time of the day is too short, and it is impossible to "fly" to the temple without practicing hundreds of times.
Therefore, Li Linda did not plan to use "flying" from the beginning.
He grabbed the ravine in the cliff and began to climb slowly up.
The Valley of the Great Wind is a place where the wind blows permanently, and the higher the place, the stronger the wind, so no one has really climbed up to the temple since ancient times, which in itself is impossible.
Even high priests and prophets could not have climbed with their bare hands.
They are magicians, and what can be solved with magic does not use their hands – this is a very simple truth.
However, for an "outsider" like Li Lin, turning the impossible into a possibility is already commonplace, and since he can't use "flying" in one day, then he needs to climb.
It's that simple.
As time passed, Li Lin climbed higher and higher, and the wind blowing on the cliff became stronger and stronger.
Several times, Li Lin almost didn't grasp it.
But he still climbed intently, and he had to make sure that he had a firm grip on the gully every time before he would climb a little more carefully.
Little by little, not sloppy.
Go up steadily.
As the wind got stronger, he struggled to climb harder, and later, in order to hold on to the ravine, he had to insert his fingers into the rocks.
Soon, his fingers were bloody.
But Li Lin didn't seem to be aware of it, and he still kept climbing very slowly and unusually solidly.
In less than half a day, he had already climbed half the way.
And his physical strength was almost exhausted.
It is not easy for a ten-year-old child to make it here, and it is impossible for an adult to climb to such a high place with his bare hands.
The wind at this height already has the strength of the second-level wind magic, the Gale Technique, and the strength of the upper wind may be close to the third-level magic, the Tempest Technique.
At that time, Li Lin will not only be injured in his fingers, but the rest of his body may also be cut by the wind.
But Li Lin only rested in place for a while, and then continued to climb up slowly.
No hesitation, no hesitation.
Just use the bloody fingers to grasp the cliff steadily, and slowly go up.
Burst!
A strong wind blew.
Li Lin's left cheek was scraped with a shallow wound.
The wind here was already close to the level of the Wind Technique, and Li Lin didn't even frown, it seemed that nothing was more important to him than climbing.
A ten-year-old kid climbed the cliff outside the temple with tenacity.
。。。
On the other side, after Lydia returned to the temple, she immediately came to the divine pool in the center of the temple.
This is where she used to listen to the will of the gods, and she would always sit in the middle of the pool for a whole day.
However, since the fall of the gods, the pool has become a resting place for the high priest, and every time Lydia wants to see the high priest, she must come to the pool.
The Divine Pond is a circular pond with a radius of 100 meters, and the water in the pond is not high, perhaps only to the ankles of people, Lydia stepped into the Divine Pond barefoot and walked straight to the center of the Divine Pool.
A woman with a very beautiful face was sitting in the pool with her eyes closed.
It was the High Priestess of the Storm, Eva.
"Prophet, you are back. Eva opened her eyes, and her gaze was like a storm blowing, and the water of the divine pool was rippling in circles.
Lydia's expression remained unchanged, and she said lightly: "I will let Dempsy come up to the temple on his own according to your wishes." ”
"Well, you're doing a great job. Eva nodded, "Children need to be polished, and they must be subjected to considerable hardship in order to be better accepted by the temple." ”
"If he can't come up in a day, are you really going to send him away from Windy Hollow?" asked Lydia.
"Lydia, we grew up together, you know I never joked. Eva affirmed.
"Eva, Dampsey is a level 12 magician. Lydia looked into Eva's eyes and said, "Even if his twelfth level magic is not complete, his talent is amazing...... Don't lose to you and me at all!"
