Chapter 43: The Secret, the Mightier

Sure enough, they want to keep it a secret from me, and they don't want to tell me. Ophiecher was as usual on the surface, but he was thrilled inside.

A few days ago, the transcendent knowledge he had learned a little about the church began to emerge sporadically in his sea of knowledge.

In the square church, there were a number of people who belonged to a transcendent agency of a certain confidential nature - at least twenty or more as far as Ofiichher knew.

Most of the monks and clergy were engaged only in theological affairs, under the responsibility and leadership of priests, while the people in the supernatural affairs usually held some positions as clergy, but most of the time they were under the orders of the chief paladin, dealing with unnatural disasters caused by demons and monsters, as well as other man-made cases with supernatural elements.

Among them, there are clergymen who are dedicated to violent confrontation, there are church advisers who study the scene of the case, there are healers who are responsible for eliminating the residual hazards, and there are also senior clerical staff who are responsible for researching the case and sorting out documents.

Adviser Ramiro and a senior clerical staff took turns teaching and explaining their doubts to Ofeiche, claiming that the so-called supernatural power came from the equally usable source energy that the Lord God Gian had given to all living beings on earth.

People with strong convictions and willpower are more likely to drive their supernatural powers to their own use, that is, they will unconsciously improve their source power, so that in the end, the source energy driven by them will be revealed.

What's a little strange is that the vast majority of people can't directly perceive the existence of source qi, even if they already have a considerable degree of source power, they still can't directly use the low-level path of source qi to turn source qi into physical strengthening. It wasn't until they came across the use of the advanced path by chance that they realized they possessed supernatural powers.

Even for people with the same willpower, the extraordinary strength displayed through different advanced ways is far from the same strength and effect.

The simplest and crudest way is called the telekinetic path. It is quite similar to the way the source qi is used in the low-level path, which is a brutal path that countless warriors have gradually realized during desperate battles. Source Qi has become an extension of the physical body, a mental power that can both strengthen the physical body and dissolve outside it.

And the discovery process of the low-level path made people a little laughing and crying after hearing about it-

It was a long time after the path of mental power was excavated, and only then did some groups of warrior monks who used the source qi as the way to cultivate their bodies and minds come into contact with the low-level path of the source qi in disguise through a peculiar way of breathing.

These warrior monks became the first people to be able to feel the source qi without resorting to advanced paths. According to rumors, they also achieved their wishes: they painstakingly cultivated, meditated, and regulated their breathing, and felt the presence of the source qi, and found that they could indeed mobilize the source qi and strengthen the functions of the body, so as to prolong life and youth.

However, most of these monks who had been isolated from the world for many years and who had been poor and cultivated for many years died of starvation, and the rest could not escape the danger of being in the wilderness.

The discoveries of the warrior monks were known to the world through inquiries from curious people and the outflow of manuscripts.

The people of the world have even found that even the nobles who have no worries about food and clothing do not bother to try such a painstaking effort - if the youth and longevity of the cultivation are spent more than ten hours a day on regulating the breath and meditating, then what is the point?

Compared with the high-level pathway telekinesis, the pure power displayed by this low-level path is inferior, and it cannot be used to resist spiritual aggression. The only advantage is that under the detection of some spiritual vision, the source qi of the low-level path is not easy to detect, it is often nothing special in the spiritual vision, and the telekinesis will show a certain color.

In addition to the simple and crude transcendent power of telekinesis, there are six other advanced ways, namely: bloodline, divine gift, strange things, essena, runes, and rituals, and the further you go, the more powerful you are.

The Church also crudely classifies telekinesis, bloodline, and divine endowment as light forces that help the Lord God Gian carry out his will on earth, while essentia, runes, and rituals are classified as dark forces that oppose his will - to the odd of Orpheicher that, according to the church's own canon, the source of bloodline power is not honorable, and the empire has no less resort to runic power and ritual power.

The important thing is that among the many ways, even the same people, using the same transcendent matter, the transcendent power displayed by the secret ritual is the most powerful and abnormal existence!

... In connection with what he had previously learned that the perception of supernatural powers required external gifts, Ofeicher was almost able to deduce that someone had given Casey a certain degree of spiritual vision to detect if something was wrong with Ofiicher in him.

Ofey read the sea, and his thoughts continued to rush through like lightning.

I'm afraid the details still need to be confirmed and investigated, so let's assume:

After the events of the night in Chahe Town, Casey was unwilling to accept the current reality in its entirety, and some people took advantage of her confusion and confusion to give her illusions such as omens and interpret them in ways such as divination, which were forbidden by the church, destroying the church's spiritual treatment of her and making her frequently dream of the painful reality she encountered.

Since then, Casey has gradually developed a distrust of reality and the church, and has been firmly understood by the other party, and has been somewhat manipulated and manipulated.

Casey may have become the eyeliner that this man planted next to Charlotte!, Orfee guessed.

After Finn told Charlotte that her bloodline power had been destroyed and did not exist, the Panthion Society launched a hysterical suicide attack, whether the information leak was at Finn's or Charlotte's, or was the problem with the reckless Ramiro as the church believed?

However...... Today Casey is agitated to put hostility on herself, and even swaggers to probe herself...... This......

Ofe Yiche choked himself, and he almost gasped in horror!

What is the Panthion Society, is there still a member who remains in the town and has shifted his interest to himself? Philips Neumann did not even want his life, out of utter indignation at the failure of the plan, or was he afraid that if it failed completely, he would be horribly punished by the members who oversaw his plan here?

Secret rituals are not only the best way to use supernatural powers, but also a means of concealing themselves, no wonder the clerks in charge of supernatural affairs in the church are a little neurotic, no wonder that the advisor spends most of his time in the room with a large number of extraordinary things, no wonder Finn, as an expert in secret rituals, has even become the target of dispatching the entire church in Chahe Town to deal with.

... Conversely, however, Casey has also become a clue to track down the evil forces that still lurk in Chauffle.

Let's just tell Charlotte that she found a good house. Ofeicher knocked on the door of Charlotte's room, a smile of good news on his face.
