Chapter 13 Walk on the earth like a god!
Flame of Prayerγ
[Rank: God Level]
[Ability: Absorb the wishes of sentient beings to form fire and light, and with this flame seed, you can use the flame to attack others, or illuminate everything with light, or you can rely on the flame brand to distribute the fire and light generated to others]
The ability of the Prayer Fire was very simple, but after reading all the circumstances, two words appeared in Lu Chen's mind.
"Divine Fire!"
The gods that cannot be looked at directly are great, but the ritual of becoming a god is also difficult, not to mention that before becoming a god, the god gate needs to be closed for four days, and it needs more power, godhead...... And so on, in this kind of ritual, burning the soul and will of the self to make them achieve the divine fire is not the most difficult, but it is the most dangerous, this is the sublimation of burning everything, in case the savings are not enough, it is likely that the self will be burned out in the process of sublimation but will not be able to touch the edge of the god, this point, even Lu Chen also has a trace of worry.
But now, there was nothing that bothered Lu Chen, and the appearance of the Prayer Fire allowed Lu Chen to completely get rid of this situation.
"Only when the soul and will are burned out in an instant can the divine fire be born, but now that there is the fire of prayer, I don't need to break the cauldron at all, as long as I slowly refine and integrate my soul and consciousness into it, I have overcome a major difficulty in achieving the divine circle. β
"Moreover, the Flame of Prayer is not only useful for attaining the divine position, but it is also now, as long as I have enough believers, it is a constant stream of transformers, so that my energy will never be exhausted, and the infinite energy can be accomplished in this way. β
"Gotta get it, this thing is mine!"
Lu Chen, who was thinking like this, had a terrifying light in his eyes.
Lu Chen was pleasantly surprised by the appearance of the Divine Fire, but there were not too many surprises, there were many things that could be conceived in the world, the first batch of Divine Yuan in the Spiritual Qi Continent where Lu Chen was originally located, they were not cultivated from weak to strong, they were all born from the world, even the Divine Fire could be bred, and a Divine Fire was nothing to the world at all.
The appearance of the divine fire made Lu Chen not sleep all night, although Lu Chen didn't have to sleep in normal times.
What made Lu Chen even more excited was that due to the preaching of the Church of the Most Good Fire, this flame absorbed a huge amount of faith power, which also meant that it contained super high energy in its body, and it was still the fire and light that were most easily absorbed by Lu Chen.
Relying on the fire and light emitted by the Devouring Prayer Fire, in just three hours, Lu Chen's originally depleted body was completely restored.
However, early the next morning, before Lu Chen, who had just recovered, could find Elaine and ask her where the origin fire was, there was a commotion in the royal capital.
The violent commotion from far to the present day soon came to the front of the inn.
Pushing open the door, before Lu Chen could see what was happening, Elaine came to his side with a cautious face and whispered to him.
"The church has discovered the loss of Tinder, they are going crazy now, and all the gates of the royal capital have been guarded by them under martial law, you must not show your flaws. β
As she spoke, Elaine was full of resentment, and when she learned that Lu Chen's target was Tinder, she knew that things would be serious.
But even so, she still did it, not because she liked to cause trouble, but because Elaine knew that if she couldn't satisfy Lu Chen, things would be even more serious than now.
When Elaine was careful to advise, the noise at the front door became heavier and heavier, and following Elaine out, Lu Chen was surprised to find that the army of the Most Good Fire had surrounded the inn, and the frost wolf and Catherine were standing in front of the gathered people, confronting the Church of the Most Good Fire.
"What's going on? Could it be that the church found out so quickly that we were stealing?"
This is something that Lu Chen is puzzled and surprised about, he also thought that the Church of the Supreme Fire will soon find out that the fire is lost, but according to his thoughts, the people of the church will not be able to find themselves anyway, the empty stomach can swallow all traces.
Just when Lu Chen was surprised, the quarrel in front of him gradually became louder, and Lu Chen also heard some information from it.
"Joke, I lost something and didn't look for my own reason, but came to us without the slightest evidence, the official authority of the church is really getting bigger and bigger!"
"Hmph, except for you monsters, who in the city dares to steal from us. β
"I'll say this to King Ritania, I remember, this is his royal capital, or is it that I haven't been here for a few years, and this place has changed owners. β
"Xenomorphs, don't stir up our relationship with Your Majesty. β
"Judge Master, don't talk nonsense with these monsters, take them all to the Inquisition......"
Lu Chen didn't listen to the words anymore, at this time, he already understood that the reason why the Flame of Perfection would find them so quickly was not because they found Lu Chen stealing the flame, but because the Frost Wolf and the others gathered together, making the Flame of Perfection feel that only they could do this, and at the same time, from the conversation between the two, Lu Chen also felt that the relationship between the Flame of Perfection and the Frost Wolf and the others was not very good.
Lu Chen looked at Elaine for this, and she quickly replied to Lu Chen: "This nasty church claims that their gods are the only true gods, and all the great powers in the world are given by their true gods, and other powerful beings are evil, and they are most disgusted by wizards who disrespect everything and witchers with demon blood, and we have gathered the strongest group of witches and witchers here." β
"So, don't blame me this time, it's because you have a grudge for a long time, and the church is just taking advantage of it. β
Looking at Lu Chen's interesting expression, Elaine wanted to say that if it weren't for you, the church wouldn't have had such a big conflict with Uncle Frostwolf, but thinking of Lu Chen's strength, she still couldn't help it.
Just as Lu Chen was talking behind Elaine, someone from another force arrived, the king or the nobles.
They led their armies and reprimanded both sides harshly, telling them not to go to war in the town.
After the arrival of the military, Lu Chen let out a heartfelt sigh.
"The triangle is indeed the most stable structure in the world. β
That's what happened ahead, when the military didn't come, the ranger powerhouse represented by the frost wolf had already drawn his weapon, and he was about to fight with the Church of the Highest Fire Sect, but when the king's people came, although they were still arguing, there was no danger of fighting, they were just fighting with words, and there was a feeling of endlessness.
Such a quarrel lasted for dozens of minutes, and Lu Chen also watched the scene for dozens of minutes leisurely, which made Elaine next to him itch with hatred.
"I've had to play these days. β
After Lu Chen sighed with a smile, suddenly, with good eyes, he found that a firewood pile was suddenly erected in Wang Du just now, and a group of young girls were pressed by the people of the Church of the Highest Flame and led to the direction of the square, and countless people behind were crying and begging.
"Sir, knight, my daughter is not a witch, she really isn't. β
"Woo woo, Ah Lian......"
"Mother, help me. β
"Ah...... I don't want to die...... Sister, brother ......"
There were bursts of crying and shouting, but it could not be exchanged for liberation, but there would be people from the Supreme Fire Church who kicked down those who cried, and this scene made Lu Chen's eyes narrow.
"What's that?"
Elaine saw what was happening in front of her before Lu Chen asked the question, and her face showed disgust for what the church was doing, but after finding that Lu Chen's tone was wrong, she hurriedly restrained her mind and stopped Lu Chen.
"That's what the church often does, some maidens are appointed as witches without permission, and some disobedient heretics are randomly designated, it's none of your business, this is the church's collection of maidens in order to collect money, and they have been doing this for decades since they gained power. β
"Do your nobles have nothing to do with the king?"
"They, hmph, are all the same dogs, and many nobles even take the initiative to slander some beautiful girls as witches, and then ...... with the people of the church"
Elaine didn't say the rest of the words, but the result can be imagined.
And after Lu Chen was silent for a long time, he said silently:
"They used to do it often, but in Wangdu, they arrested people, and they did it so excessively because they were lost as an excuse, and I was also involved in these girls. β
These words left Elaine speechless.
"Sure enough, a church without gods, no, without the restraint of God, is not a good thing. β
Lu Chen's words were very soft, but Elaine felt the crazy killing intent surging in his heart, and that killing intent made Elaine chill, and she didn't dissuade her.
......
What the Supreme Fire did not only made Lu Chen's heart angry, but also made the king of Retannia angry.
"My Bishop, what do you want to do, go to war and arrest people in my royal capital, do you still take me seriously? β
The king of Ritania was angry that his authority had been challenged, and the archbishop who had been recruited into the palace was full of grief.
"Your Majesty, the sacred fire of my religion has been lost, it was given by the gods, without the holy fire, we will not be able to train priests in Retannia, and there will be no paladins to fight for Your Majesty. β
"You're threatening me. β
"No, Your Majesty, everything I did was to retrieve the Holy Fire!"
There are three powerful countries in this world, and the Church of the Most Good Fire has branches in all three countries, and this archbishop is a threat, threatening the king of Ritania, and if the Holy Fire is lost, Ritania will have no priests and paladins, and will be defeated in the subsequent battles with the other two countries.
Of course, the bishop did not dare to persecute too much.
"Your Majesty, the people I have arrested are all ungodly people in the past, and they may all be thieves who stole the Holy Fire, once the Holy Fire is found, I will personally apologize to Your Majesty and make amends. β
This bishop actually had a lot of means, and the loss of the holy fire was a great sin, but he took advantage of it to purge the pagans in the royal capital, and it was possible to take a step forward.
After all, what he lost was only the fire, not the source fire, and the fire could still be divided, and if he took this opportunity to clean up most of the heretics in the city, and the archival sect would send back the flames, he could even use it to fight against the king of Ritania.
It's just that, of course, this is something that King Ritania can't allow, squinting his eyes, he keeps thinking about various strategies in his heart.
Before he could think of his plan, there was an uproar outside, and then a paladin, guarded by several janissaries, broke into the council hall.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the thief who stole the flame has been found. β
These words made both people in the audience stunned, and in the end, it was the king who reacted first.
"I found it so quickly, it seems that he is a thief, my bishop, such a thief can steal the holy fire, you are not good at protecting the holy flame, do you need my guards to help you guard it?" β
"Your Majesty, as long as you give the order, even a fly will not be able to break into the room we guard. β
Watching the king sing and harmonize with the commanders below, the archbishop's face darkened.
"No, Your Majesty, the minister still has something to do, so I'll retire first. β
It is so easy to find people, it is simply not strictly guarded, as the archbishop of a country, his status is respected, but it is not without enemies, and there are many people who spy on the status of the archbishop.
Thinking of the king's taunt just now, and even more so of the loss of status, his face was full of anger.
"Whoever you are, if you dare to steal the tinder, I will tear you to the bone. β
He was furious with the thief, and he kept thinking of all kinds of cruel means to torture the thief.
While thinking about it, his speed is also very fast, he is also a strong man who has become an archbishop in this magical world, after walking out of the council hall, he scepter, the ground is glowing with golden light, and then, with one step, his figure spans thousands of kilometers, and after a few consecutive steps, he came to the place where the church people gathered.
"Where's that filthy thief!"
When he arrived, he was shouting at the thief, trying to kill him immediately.
However, he soon found out that the people of the church did not catch the thief, but gathered together to confront a group of strong men.
After a few closer looks, he spotted the crowd on the other side.
"Frostwolf, you wild dog is no longer looking for food in the country, but a thief. β
"I'm not interested in your Rausch flames. β
At this time, the paladin who called for the archbishop hurriedly spoke: "Lord Bishop, it was the young man who stole the fire. β
His eyes followed the direction pointed by the paladin, and a young man who was protected by the strong man in front of him in the middle, with a helpless face, fell into his eyes.
"It's you ...... bastard"
Finding the thief who made him make a mistake made the archbishop want to scold angrily, but he looked directly at Lu Chen, and when he was about to scold angrily, he felt a burst of fear in his heart for no reason, and finally did not scold the swear words.
"Why steal our tinder. β
As soon as he said this, the frostwolf's eyes almost popped out.
The archbishop he had in his impression was not such a kind person, and the others were also full of surprise.
However, Lu Chen, who was not familiar with the nature of the archbishop, didn't know this, looking at the people around him who surrounded him in the middle, Lu Chen's face was full of helplessness.
"Is it really good for me, an outsider, to be hostile to the Fire of the Most Good?"
"What nonsense, since you are the man of Little Elaine, you are our man. β
"Don't have any psychological burden, we don't fight against the people in the church once or twice, and even if it doesn't have this incident, they won't give us a good face. β
"Why did you admit it, fool...... If you don't admit it, then run out of the city and take out the tinder for us to play with. β
Listening to those words and feeling their concern, Lu Chen looked at Elaine with a little envy: "You have a good group of companions. β
"No, we are family. β
"Yes, we are family, don't worry about those hypocrites, but I tell you, if you dare to be sorry for Elaine, I will cut your job. β
"Well, I can't bear to take advantage of you like this. β
After finishing speaking, Lu Chen pushed everyone away a little hard and stood in front of the frost wolf.
This kind of approach, which seemed to have to bear everything alone, of course, made this group of lovely people who gathered together for the sake of friends to fight against natural disasters dissatisfied, but after they exerted their strength, they found that Lu Chen, who was walking, couldn't move at all like a mountain, and a person who was slightly exaggerated even used all his strength to pull Lu Chen, but was dragged to the front by Lu Chen.
This scene made the archbishop's gaze on the opposite side also froze slightly, but he knew that the people on the other side were a group of strong people, and they couldn't hold down the man, which was enough to prove that the person in front of him was not favored by Elaine because of his handsomeness.
However, Lu Chen was still quite happy to come forward alone.
"Are you ready to atone for your sins, I can promise you that I can leave no one else to bear as long as you are willing to be judged. β
"Judgment...... Hahahaha......"
As if he was amused, Lu Chen, who was standing alone in front of him, let out an arrogant laugh, and then, the laughter suddenly stopped, and Lu Chen's words of extreme contempt resounded throughout the square.
"Judge me, and you are worthy of it!"
"Bold!"
As soon as Lu Chen's words fell, before the archbishop could say anything, the surrounding Templar Knights let out a loud shout, and then, a Demonic Slash flew towards Lu Chen.
"Be careful. β
Seeing that the other side was really moving, the frost wolf immediately drew his twin swords and stared at the archbishop, and the others also drew their weapons and prepared to fight.
However, everyone didn't resist the attack for Lu Chen, not that they couldn't, but when Lu Chen walked just now, Lu Chen showed his strength, and they thought that this Evil Breaking Slash Lu Chen would easily resist.
It's just that something unexpected finally happened, and the roaring sword qi actually slashed straight at Lu Chen.
With a "bang", the sword qi slashed into Lu Chen's body.
This scene made the Church of the Supreme Good Flame and the Frost Wolf and the others who were preparing to fight stop their movements.
"Hey, little one, it's okay. β
"Bastard, you don't really want to resist so as not to affect us. β
It was a foul-hearted brass curse, but, what he didn't expect was that this curse was answered.
"Of course not, and, as I said earlier, they want to judge me, because they don't deserve it. β
When the words fell, Tongxu looked at Lu Chen for the first time, looked at him carefully, and his surprised voice sounded.
"You're fine. β
"Who the hell are you?"
The dwarf bronze beard didn't see clearly because of his height, and he thought that Lu Chen had blocked the Evil Slash, but the archbishop in front of him clearly saw that his subordinate Templar Knight slashed the monster in front of him with a sword, but the Evil Slash that terrified the dark creatures in the past was actually absorbed by the humans in front of him this time.
"No, it's impossible for humans to absorb the Evil Slash, it's a monster. β
Thinking like this, the archbishop's staff paused, and immediately issued his own order: "Monster, show your prototype!"
This is the order of drinking, but also the spirit of words, under this spell, the strong people with alien bloodlines behind Lu Chen have revealed what they have hidden.
To Lu Chen's surprise, Elaine also changed, she didn't change much, and her ears changed from human round ears to pointed.
"It's ...... Elve?"
Lu Chen was surprised by Elaine's bloodline, and the archbishop in front of him frowned and looked at Lu Chen: "Are you a human being, it is impossible, God said: Nothing in the world can hide my eyes!"
This is the ability to borrow the fire of prayer, the ability of tens of millions of hundreds of years of prayer is still very strong, at least, Lu Chen's shrunken form was broken by the spell, and as the shrunken form was broken, Lu Chen's body shape was also constantly expanding and getting taller, 1.88, 2 meters, 3 meters, 5 meters, 10 meters...... 20 meters.
In the end, a twenty-meter-tall giant appeared in the city of Ritania, which was also Lu Chen's normal body shape.
"Giant, is this your true body, but even if you are a giant, you can't spread wildness in front of my Supreme Fire Church, and the giants we have killed in the past hundred years are not one or two!"
Archbishop Retania seemed to understand Lu Chen's dependence, and felt that his church could deal with such dependence.
It's just that he saw the ridicule on the corner of Lu Chen's mouth.
"Giant, real body? No, it's not my real body, you want to see my real body, right, as you wish. β
The words fell, and with a "bang", Lu Chen, who was twenty meters tall, suddenly collapsed into countless particles of light, and the scattered particles of light surged in all directions like a tidal wave, and in a very short period of time, the entire town of Retanya was filled with surging particles of light.
"What is this?"
"The light is above, and the gods are mighty. β
"Help...... No, my injury is healed. β
......
The explosion of light particles caused everyone in Ritania to panic, and some people felt the benefits of being covered by light particles, but whether they were panicked or happy, they soon found that the exploding light particles were converging in one direction.
The speed of light was very fast, and after a few breaths, the endless particles of light were retracted, and at this time, a behemoth appeared in front of the hotel.
It was a 10,000-meter giant god up to the clouds, the giant god was composed of light as a whole, holding a spear of light like a pillar of light, and behind the giant god, there were twelve wings of light floating away.
Because of the toss of the Church of the Most Good Fire, the subjects of the royal capital of Ritania woke up very early, and a huge number of people were paying attention to the movements of the Church of the Most Good Fire, and at this time, these concerned people all saw the giant god who stood on the top of the sky, as if he could reach out and pick off the stars.
"God, what is that?"
"The Light ...... above"
The power of the 10,000-meter giant god was too terrifying, the entire royal capital of Ritania, and half of the city's subjects knelt unconsciously, and even outside the city, countless people saw the image of the giant god and were shocked by Lu Chen.
Most of the kneeling people who were intimidated by Lu Chen were poor people, but at this time, the well-informed archbishop also felt that he was going crazy.
"No way, how can you be so strong, I don't believe it, it's all an illusion. β
"Destroy my enemies, O Holy Light!"
The archbishop, who didn't want to believe what was in front of him, summoned the sun and flames, wanting to destroy the enemy in front of him.
It's just that a scene that made him desperate then happened, a meteor-like Yang Yan Explosion fell on the giant god, not causing him the slightest injury at all, and even, the archbishop clearly saw that the fire of the Yang Yan explosion fell into the body of the 10,000-meter giant god, like water merging into the sea, but it enhanced the power of this giant god.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible, what the hell are you. β
He was yelling in despair, but Lu Chen showed a cruel smile: "This is the real body you want to see, do you like it!" As for my name, you can call me ......."
"God!"
"He is the Most Good One, the Righteous One who walks on the earth, the One who gives all beings the fire that sustains warmth and life, and the Most Good God who He gives wisdom to mankind, O My Lord, You are the light of the beginning of all things, and You are the ...... of fire of the beginning of all things."
"Uh-huh??"
The shout of praise made Lu Chen stunned, of course, it would not be unusual for ordinary people to call Lu Chen like this, after all, the poor people in this era do not know much, and it is not a strange scene to see a 10,000-meter giant god directly kneeling down and calling the gods, but what Lu Chen didn't expect was that it was Elaine who knelt on the ground and praised him loudly at this time.
"What, you don't know where I came from?"
......
