vs 21 The Empire of Hypocrisy
As soon as he left the 'door', he saw Erin with a small puffed face, as if she was dissatisfied, and Thor was trying to explain something. Seeing Harry come out, Erin jumped up to her, tilted her head and asked, "Did you 'get it' the strong holy power in the room just now?"
"Uh...... I was healing myself. That's not a lie. It's just that Harry's statement is tantamount to misleading Ssol that they themselves are from the Temple, at least ...... It won't be a heretic......
"Great!" Irene cheered, she grabbed Ssol's arm and swung it twice, "Guess he's going to be a bishop?"
"It doesn't seem like there is such a young bishop in the temple, does it?" said Ssol, who also had a hint of doubt in his eyes. "But judging from the level of holy power in the room just now, ordinary priests can't use such powerful holy power. ”
"Don't 'bother' guess who I am. Harry said, "I'll tell you if I have a chance, it's not the time yet. ”
"But...... But......" Erin looked eager, "if you are a bishop, you can baptize Erin in the light, so that Erin can become a priest." ”
"Light baptism?" Harry was a little stunned, obviously he couldn't possibly know that only a bishop could perform a baptism. "Why do you want to be a pastor?"
"Then Erin can be worthy of Brother Ssol!" Erin said proudly, "I heard Lord Priest Arrow say that Brother Ssol is a rare genius even in the temple!, but Erin is just a pariah......" At the end of her voice, she turned to frustration.
Untouchables?Is that what the Holy Light Empire calls its subordinate civilians!!!
"Only the Bishop can baptize the Light?" Harry looked at Ssol.
"Not bad!" Although it was strange that Harry could mobilize such a huge amount of holy power, but he didn't even know the basic conditions for becoming a priest, Thor still explained it to Harry in detail.
In the Holy Light Empire, three months after the birth of each child, they will go to the church to perform the Holy Light blessing, and most of the Holy Light blessings are performed by priests and priests. About 1/4 of the children will be able to get the light perception. In the future, with this light perception, these children will be able to cultivate holy power and become paladins or warrior monks.
Children who do not have the enlightenment of light at birth have only one way to escape from the untouchables. Baptized with light by the bishop and thus able to perceive the Light. But how can a bishop be seen by ordinary people? Therefore, if you are not born with a light perception, it will be even more difficult in the future. Moreover, the highest achievement of a person who has been baptized by light the day after tomorrow can only be a priest in white, and the later he is baptized, the lower his achievement will naturally be.
"And where did these high priests and bishops come here now?" asked Harry, curiously.
"Those are all big names in the empire, and their sons and daughters are blessed by the bishop with holy light at birth, and the light perception they get is naturally many times stronger than that of ordinary people. Therefore, they can learn to comprehend those complex and obscure sacred words from their childhood. Ssol explained.
I see, the Holy Light Empire is a country with such strict class stratification. The upper-class bigwigs 'Nu' was born with a cultivation foundation that was difficult for ordinary people to achieve, learned the most profound sacred word techniques, and gained the most revered status when she grew up. And unless the children and daughters of ordinary families are fortunate enough to gain a glimmer of light and understanding when they are born, they are destined to become untouchables for the rest of their lives.
Like Erin, her fiancé has qualifications that ordinary people don't have, and he can only become the most ordinary priest by relying on Ssol to reach level 7 Holy Knight and then go to the Holy Capital to ask a bishop to help Erin baptize...... But how many untouchables can be as lucky as Irene?
What kind of 'bastard' realm is this! What kind of shameless god is the God of Light! Is this what he calls the equality of all beings? Is this what he calls God loves the world? Shit!
The anger in Harry's eyes flickered, and he immediately thought: Is this so-called baptism of light really only the bishop can perform, and if he uses the light point in his arms, can he also simulate it? This thought moved slightly, and then Harry left him behind. I have more important things to do, so why bother with this thing.
"Aren't you really a bishop?" Erin looked disappointed, and he could tell that Harry knew almost nothing about the baptism of light.
"Bishop? It's not a big deal. Harry's mind was not there, and he blurted out a strange remark. In his heart, a bishop is really nothing remarkable, and he has killed a lot.
"Bishop, the bishop is nothing remarkable!" Erin staggered with an exaggerated expression, and exclaimed, "We have only one cardinal priest in each church except for one bishop in Tanta City!"
Mobei Village is located in a remote area, so no big people want to stay in this area.
"Uh...... Don't talk about that. Harry saw Ssol's gaze looking at him even more suspicious, and couldn't help but 'touch' his nose in embarrassment. "Do you have pen and paper?"
"Yes!" Thor got up and brought it to Harry.
He was in a coma for three days, and Kiru didn't know what was going on, so he decided to ask Shannie about it.
"I'm going back to the house for a while. "It's not that Harry is guarding against Ssol, it's just that he's afraid that the space grabbing will scare the other party. Moreover, after all, it is better to communicate with the Free Empire and not let them know.
Using space grabbing, Harry soon spotted the note that Shanni had left behind. It was to the effect: Kiru has returned safely, how are you doing, Harry?
There are a lot of notes, and it seems that he has not responded, causing concern for Shanny and Kiru. Harry set fire to all the notes and passed them back.
"I'm fine, I'm still in the Holy Light Empire. I decided to inquire about it, so don't worry. ”
A short time later, when Harry reached into the storage room again, he realized that he had already received a response.
"Harry, you're okay! Great! You come back first, we will take a long-term view of Tang Ling's affairs. ”
"Don't worry, I'm not going to take any chances, and I'll come back to you for help when I figure out a way." "Harry is not ready to go back, last time he relied on Nefarian's strength, thinking that he would definitely be able to 'force' the other party to 'hand' over Tang Ling. Who knew that the Pope actually summoned the incarnation of the God of Light, causing himself to fall short.
This time, you must know yourself and your opponent and come up with a way to save Tang Ling.
"The Dragon Emperor has come again, and he said that it is not appropriate for the Dragon Clan to participate in the affairs of the Holy Light Empire. Nefarian can no longer be a helper. "This should be Kiru's message.
"Okay, I see, that's it! Don't worry, I won't be reckless this time. Harry exhaled softly, Kiru was fine, he had nothing to worry about.
Although the Holy Light helped me wash away the pain all over my body, as Ni 'Lu' said, most of the Holy Light's treatment is a symptom. Harry could feel that his body hadn't fully recovered, so in order to maintain his perfect fighting condition, it was better to rest for a few more days before walking. By the way, you can also get some useful information from Ssol's mouth.
There was a knock on the door, and Ssol's voice was heard outside.
"Your Excellency can come out to eat. ”
Harry pushed the door and saw three bowls of rice, a pot of vegetables, a small bowl of roasted meat, and a large bowl of clear soup on the table.
Could it be that Thor is poor? Even in the home of a commoner in the imperial capital, the food eaten is probably similar to that of Ssol.
But Harry didn't show it. People saved themselves and entertained themselves for free to eat, and it would be rude for them to pick and choose. At most, I will let the imperial capital add more food to myself.
Maybe Thor is trying to save money to marry Erin, or maybe there's something going on. Harry thought very irresponsibly.
Perhaps he was really hungry, and after stripping off the rice in two bites, Harry put down the bowl and said, "I'm done." ”
The small bowl of roasted 'meat' Ssol and Erin barely moved, and Harry was slightly moved. Anyway, he could secretly add food when he entered the house, and if it weren't for the fear of scaring Ssol and them, Harry really wanted to come and treat him to a big meal.
"You haven't eaten for three days, so that's what you eat?" asked Ssol, confused.
"That's right, this is the beef 'meat' specially roasted for you, why don't you eat a bite?" said Erin unhappily with a pout.
"Well...... I eat a small amount ......" Harry scratched the back of his head and said, "And I like to be vegetarian......"
"Strange people......" Erin pouted and gave a piece of 'meat' to Ssol: "Brother Ssol, you can eat it, don't waste it!"
Thor gave Harry a thoughtful look, but didn't say anything more.
Strange Country...... Ssol is also a dignified Rank 6 Templar Knight, how can he eat so simply? It seems that if he hadn't arrived by himself, this small bowl of roasted 'meat' might not have been there! Could it be that the food in the Holy Light Empire is really in short supply to this extent? Harry couldn't help but mutter.
Back in the house, Harry faintly heard Erin whispering something to Ssol, and Harry was curious, and couldn't help but unleash his 'spirit' divine power and secretly whisper.
"Brother Ssol, who do you think Harry is?"
"I can't see through him, but he must be a big man. The holy power in the house just now was not his own power, and it must have been caused by the treasures of the temple. In any case, he is not a simple person. Ssol whispered back.
"Then he should know some bishops, can you ......?" Erin's voice was interrupted by Ssol.
"Don't make such an idea. Despite the blame, Ssol's tone remained gentle. "He must have had some accident when he came to us, resulting in an injury, and even without our help, it would not be difficult to recover with his strength. How can you use this little favor to blackmail others?"
"Erin is wrong...... But Erin just didn't want to marry Brother Ssol as a pariah. Erin didn't covet the priesthood......" The voice sounded a little aggrieved, and Harry couldn't help but worry for a while. If she really has the ability to baptize Erin with light, how can she fulfill her dream.
"I know, don't worry, when I become a level 7 Holy Knight, I'm sure I'll get a bishop to baptize Irene...... Come on, let's eat a piece of roast beef 'meat'!" Ssol softly comforted his fiancée.
What kind of empire is this!!!
