Chapter 33: Unsightly!

The City Lord of Dragon City personally raided the Inquisition, and the news of rescuing the two recruits under his command did not spread. "Little # said that reading this book is the fastest update without ads"

Both Dragon City and the Holy Light Sect deliberately suppressed the news, and for the Holy Light Sect, it was not something to boast about if the headquarters of a diocese's inquisition was overturned with a sword. And for Bedwell, the outbreak of this dynasty after years of forbearance is actually not his intention.

When it comes to strength, no matter how strong Dragon City is, it can't be stronger than the Holy Light Sect. This huge church, which has a powerful force all over the continent, can easily crush Dragon City if it is serious, at least not to the point of openly challenging it.

However, no matter which side it is, this short period of calm is not the end, what has happened cannot be regarded as if it has not happened, and the contradictions between Dragon City and the Holy Light Sect that have been handled in a low-key manner for so many years will only break out sooner or later.

"That's why people are not as good as heaven."

In the Longcheng barracks, Wang Lu sighed.

Of course, Wang Lu was the one who spread the rumors and caused the Inquisition to arrest people, and only he could provide conclusive evidence for the Inquisition, allowing them to break the equilibrium that had been maintained with Dragon City for many years. Of course, this kind of behavior of selling teammates is based on absolute safety, not to mention that the real strength of Liulixian and Bai Shixuan is much higher than the Dragon City recruits they showed, and they are safe and secure. On the other hand, as long as Wang Lu can pass the news to Bedwell in time, with Bedwell's intelligence, he must guess that the inquisition may take advantage of this to make a big fuss, then raiding and saving people is an inevitable choice. And the worst-case scenario is nothing more than that Bedwell treats the two as outcasts, and then Wang Lu personally takes action, and Liuli and Xiaobaili should get out of the ascension to heaven.

It's just that even Wang Lu didn't expect that in the end, it was Bedwell who made the move himself, and in the process of shooting, he happened to bump into Marina, and there was a big misunderstanding.

"Does Bedwell love his people so much?" Wang Lu was deeply suspicious, "It's just two recruits, he actually bravely entered the tiger's den in Longtan, how did this kind of hot-brained guy survive to this day?" ”

Aya commented coldly: "I used to do the same before. ”

"So he didn't learn his lesson? You're a bad example."

Aya: "Wang Lu, it's immoral to poke people's wounds at will"

"In short, this is called being able to hide from the first year of junior high school, but not from the fifteenth." Wang Lu sighed, "You see, at the beginning, I said that it would be better for me to seduce Marina and Elaine and let them join our camp, but you don't agree." Now, with such a misunderstanding, Bedwell must have hated Marina to death, and it is certain that he will abandon his wife and daughter. At that time, Mrs. Marina felt deeply aggrieved, and washed her face with tears all day long, which made people feel unbearable? After all, she is a kind woman, so I can only open my mind to comfort her, so that she can feel the warmth and firmness of a man again, you see, I have come full circle and returned to the starting point. ”

"If you dare to do that, I can't spare you." Aya lightly threatened, "The relationship between their husband and wife is not so fragile. ”

Wang Lu shrugged: "Okay, but anyway, I guess Marina's faith in the church should be shattered, right?" After seeing the true face of an interest organization, most idealists cannot bear the reality. ”

In this regard, Aya also agreed: "Now she should have begun to deeply doubt the nature of the church, and I hope that the next development will go smoothly." ”

Wang Lu said: "Don't worry, as a saint of the church, she has no way out after breaking with the church, as long as Bedwell is willing to accept her, will she refuse?" And as long as she brings her daughter to Toucheng, our side will have no worries at all. ”

Dragon City Cathedral, underground, in a room with dim candlelight and rough stone walls.

Marina knelt quietly in front of a statue of the Light, reciting the prayer of the Light softly. Gentle melodies echo in the stone room, creating a cosy atmosphere.

Outside the stone chamber, however, there was a pair of large, shiny eyes full of worry, staring at Marina earnestly.

"Mom, it's already ...... It's been three days. ”

Elaine muttered to herself.

From that day on, Marina returned to the church in disarray, and then went to the underground of the church, a place of punishment for penance. Every prayer in the stone chamber brings great pain to the spirit, and the weak-willed priest will be unable to bear the pain after praying for a while, either stop praying or faint.

However, Marina has been holding on for three days and three nights, her white robe has long been soaked with sweat, and her plump skin is now showing a withered color. The two cracked lips still opened rhythmically, but the breath of life became weaker and weaker.

This is the confession of burning life.

"Mom, already, that's enough." Elaine said with a crying voice outside the house, and the little girl tried to walk forward, but was resisted by the invisible force, "Who, who will save her mother." ”

As she spoke, Elaine suddenly heard an old sigh, and then the prohibition at the door of the stone room was suddenly broken, and an old figure walked in.

"Marina, that's enough."

Archbishop Rowan's voice interrupted Marina's prayer, and the woman opened her eyes and tried to get up, but she couldn't help but shake for a moment.

The old man stretched out his hand and placed it on top of Marina's head, and a gentle light enveloped her, causing her to quickly regain her strength.

Marina was not pretentious, and after nodding in thanks, she stood up: "In the past three days, I have been repenting and thinking. ”

Rowan said, "Tell me, I'm listening." ”

"My lord, I would like to ask you, have I really done anything wrong in this matter?"

The archbishop looked at Marina with a complicated gaze and did not speak.

"For three days," said Marina, "I have been torturing myself with the Light as to what I have done that has violated the will of the Light, what has violated the teachings of the Doctrine...... However, I have not been able to find an answer. The Light is mercy, the Light is fraternity, and the Light is the discernment of right and wrong, not the pursuit of perfection, black and white, and even less the means of seeking the end."

"I know that this world is far more complicated and cruel than I thought. In fact, we, the saints of the church, are often scolded for not understanding the world, like vases and mascots. But I think, maybe this world is because too many people are proficient in world affairs, so it will become complicated, if everyone can not understand the world and treat people with sincerity, where will there be so many contradictions? ”

"I remember when I was in the monastery, one day a group of inquisitors escorted a group of ragged barbarians past the monastery for a night. In the evening, they boasted of their prowess to the nuns, saying that they had destroyed a heretical tribe with only a dozen men, and that they had been killed with a river of blood. At that time, some sisters were puzzled and asked them, "The Holy Light is merciful, why should Lu kill so cruelly?" They laughed, and then explained that because there are many ignorant people in this world who refuse to accept the Light and obstruct the spread of the Light, if they are not killed, there will be many, many who will not receive the Light. For the spread of the Light, a moderate amount of force is necessary... Now that I think about it, that wasn't right? Is the purpose of the Light to spread itself? Can we do whatever it takes to get the end in it? Sometimes I even wonder if there was only faith in the Light and no church in this world, would it be a better place? ”

Marina said, looking at Archbishop Rowan in a daze, her heart uneasy. This is her heartfelt words, and they are also great rebellions, and based on these words alone, Rowan has enough reason to abolish her status as a saint

But Luo Wan didn't do that, but also said in his heart: "Your doubts, in fact, I have also had them, these questions have bothered me for decades, until I was about to end my life, and I barely found the answers." ”

"There is an insurmountable gulf between faith and reality. We hope that this world will be like the Sea of Light, with endless happiness and no darkness. However, this is not the case, and there are so many problems that need to be solved that cannot be done by faith alone. The Light may be omnipotent, but we are just ordinary mortals, and we can only solve problems by mortal means. ”

"But ......"

"But what are those means against the will of the Light? The will of the Light is high, ideal, and complete, while reality is incomplete, so there are many differences. Fish in the water are born to swim, but we humans need to study and train for a long time, which is inevitably accompanied by a lot of wrong movements. Therefore, all our efforts are aimed at one day making this world perfect, and this process will inevitably be accompanied by contradictions and suffering. We must not be discouraged by temporary setbacks, but firmly believe that tomorrow will be better than today, and then redouble our efforts to strive for a better future.

Marina didn't know what to say. In fact, Luo Wan's words obviously contradicted the teachings, but after listening to his words, the haze in his heart was dispelled a lot.

"Thank you, Your Excellency."

"May the Light be with you."

People are not as good as heaven.

Archbishop Rowan of Dragon City, in any intelligence material, is a serious and rigid person who lacks change. Throughout his life, he adhered to dogma and treated others as strictly as he did with himself.

Therefore, no one expected that when Marina's faith in the church was on the verge of collapse, an archbishop would come forward to turn the tide and save Marina's faith.

However, it is still not as good as the sky, just when the archbishop Luo Wan felt a little relieved, feeling that the storm had passed, and a new storm had begun to brew in a distant place.

It is a sea, a boundless white-gold holy sea, which contains all the beauty and happiness of the world, and is the ultimate yearning of countless people.

However, in the midst of the light, a dragon appeared, a huge dragon with a pitch-black body, its size was unusually huge, its wings stretched out, like a dark cloud covering the sky and the sun, and every scale on its body was like a mortal city. The mere sight of its posture is terrifying. Even compared to the incomparably vast Sea of Holiness, the dragon was not inferior.

The black dragon flapped its wings and floated on the holy sea, then it opened its mouth and took a deep breath. Suddenly, the ocean boiled, and white-gold energy frantically poured into the black dragon's mouth, forming an incomparably huge whirlpool.

The Sea of Holiness is rapidly shrinking, but the Black Dragon's appetite is never satisfied, and it grows larger and larger as it devours it.

Not long after, the Sea of Holiness was sucked by the black dragon, and in an instant, the entire world was also plunged into darkness

At the same time, in the Holy Light Sect's holy city, an old man in a golden-red holy robe suddenly opened his eyes, and cold sweat slid down his forehead, covering his cheeks.

Beside the old man, a slightly dull question sounded: "Sage, what do you see?" ”

The golden-red saint-robed sage was silent for a long time, and said, "The dragon of world destruction is one step closer. ”

"The Dragon of the World?" The person who asked the question looked extremely confused, "Sage, your dream of destroying the world of the dragon has lasted for more than two hundred years, two hundred years have passed, the Brighton dragon clan that was once in the sky is no longer a climate, the only hidden danger that suddenly appeared, I was also locked in the king's treasury some time ago, and the threat from the dragon should have been eradicated." Could it be that there are other dragon bloodlines on the mainland? ”

"I can't fathom the mystery, but I see it in my dreams. The mortal enemy of my Holy Light Sect must be the Bledon Dragon Clan. After that cleansing battle, I hadn't dreamed for a long time, but now that the Dragon of Destruction has returned, it must mean a crisis. ”

"However, there are only two remnants of the dragon clan that can be called a threat now, one is in Dragon City, and there is no need to worry about the loss of spirit, and the other seems to have been born out of thin air, but I have been trapped in the king's treasury, and there is no possibility of escape."

"The King's Treasury, are you sure it's safe?"

"The legacy of the Golden King, what can be wrong? If you don't worry, I'll take you to see it...... After all that time, it's time for those ridiculous heretical mongrels to cease a little. ”

As he spoke, the scene changed, and the Sage's bedroom suddenly turned into a vast and desolate space, which was a certain ** space on the fifth floor of the Golden King's Treasury.

However, the golden-red saint-robed saint had just entered when he heard a series of jaw-dropping sounds.

"Ah...... Hurry up and don't stop."

"Yes, I'm going to give birth."

"The younger sister of Hao Lu can't imagine that with this self-created ** rapid delivery method, she can actually give birth in three months, so it won't be long before we can go out."

"Well, brother, let's come again"

The space in front of him shattered, and the golden-red saint-robed sage directly shattered the space and returned to his bedroom

"That's what you want to show me?"

", Sage, don't get me wrong, I never expected it."

As he spoke, the caretaker of the King's Treasury was going insane.
