Chapter 327: God's Chosen One

Fang Yu stood there quietly, not knowing how to answer for a while. The footsteps behind him were getting closer and closer, and he was nervous and uneasy, almost imagining what he would be surrounded next, but his feet seemed to have roots, and he refused to move an inch.

He didn't know where his persistence came from, but he was determined in his heart, as if a flash of inspiration, as if there was a voice guiding him. He couldn't hear the voice, but it was pervasive, as if it were his own heartfelt thoughts.

In Aitalia, the experience was new to the Elect, but there were some people among the Aboriginal who were called prophets who could enter into such a state of inspiration. Although Fang Yu had never eaten pork, he had seen pigs running away, and he probably understood that he had received an oracle at this moment.

Just as the goddess of the forest revealed to herself, Lady Marlan was really looking for herself.

But what is she looking for herself?

The old knight looked at him, and a bright light flashed in his dim eyes.

At this moment, the screams of the knights suddenly came from behind the two, and Fang Yu involuntarily turned his head in that direction, only to see Bein's knight shadow ascending the steps of the temple in his longing. It was only a dozen meters away, but at this moment, a wall of light suddenly appeared in front of them—the golden waterfall seemed to hang down from the clouds, like a sharp sword, straight into the steps in front of the temple.

The golden pillar of light in the darkness now separated not only the black oppressive clouds, but also the raging sandstorm, as if it was the center of the storm. The bright light, falling from the clouds, was almost visible to half of BeIN City.

Most of the knights of Bein were believers in Marland, and they were so shocked when they saw this scene that they couldn't help themselves, and they involuntarily knelt down and lowered their heads to caress their chests, as if they had been sealed. And the actions of a few people have led to many more following suit, because whether they are believers or not...... After all, Aitalia is a world where there are true gods.

Fang Yu even saw that many people were in tears, crying in the sandstorm, as a non-aborigine, it was difficult for him to understand this kind of admiration, but this did not prevent a thought from naturally flashing in his heart at this moment:

Marlan, God has descended.

Less than half a month ago, Ameya had only descended once in the god Tansnir, and it was rumored that the Lord of the Mountains had also appeared once in the Hall of Casting a month ago.

It is rumored that a traveler has seen a giant walking around the Mirfang, the sacred structure of the pottery god Wojin, who had not been seen for hundreds of years.

The gods appear frequently, and they don't know whether they are good or bad, and there are no such rumors in history. Unless it was before the time of Noumerin, because most of the historical records before that time were lost to the dust of history, so that the world could not know.

Fang Yu didn't have too much 'shock' in his heart when he looked at this scene, after all, there was still a world gap between the Elector and this world, but there was still emotion. He involuntarily turned his head again, and the old knight only watched the scene quietly, feeling his gaze coming, glancing at him, and without saying a word, he stepped out of the way and motioned for him to enter.

Neither of them spoke, but Fang Yu understood what the other party meant, and finally glanced at the knights outside again - the reason why the strange scene is called a strange scene is because it is rare, but after looking at it for a while, it is nothing more than that, he remembered that he is not safe, so he nodded to the other party, and without thanking him, he hurriedly crossed the other party and walked into the temple.

The old knight looked at the men outside, then looked up at the light in mid-air, pressed his wrinkled hand to his chest, and drew a peculiar symbol, staggered left and right, like a pair of sharp swords passing through each other. Then he opened his eyes again, and his gaze was dim again, and he didn't care what was going on outside, but stepped forward and closed the door.

……

The silence in the high-arched hall was matched by the low whistling of the wind outside—and a candle flame burned in the distance, with only a faint light, spilling over the rows of dust-covered benches, outlining long, intricately patterned shadows behind it.

There was still sand falling from the ceiling of the hall, forming several thin waterfalls that rustled gently. This is not to say that the temple is in disrepair, but it is a common occurrence in this area, especially in this dusty weather, which can be quite frustrating.

When the dust storm is over, cleaning is definitely a big problem.

But after all, this is the temple of Marland, and there will definitely be many believers who volunteer to help, and it is not a problem when you think about it.

Fang Yu was walking through the rows of chairs, looking at the empty hall, and the large temple seemed to be attended to by only the elderly knight outside, so he thought about it. He stood in the middle of the hall, and looked around, as if there was not even a single minister, no monks, no apprentices, no one in sight, no one in mind.

But after a while, rustling footsteps came from behind.

In the dim light of the fire, the old knight came in from outside the temple walls, and the other man looked at him without saying a word, opened his mouth, and said bluntly:

"You are the Sage of Fenris Island."

Fang Yu was taken aback.

He involuntarily took a step back.

But the surprise did not make him lose the ability to think, but his mind spun rapidly, and a clue quickly surfaced as he remembered the words that Amaya had revealed to him not long ago. The Lady of the Forest tells him that it wasn't her who was really looking for him, but that there was someone else.

The revelation she gave was Marlan's emblem, and Fang Yu didn't dare to think about the War Lady at that time, thinking that it was one of her knights, or referring to a specific person. But after seeing this scene today, how could he not know what was happening, and from the mouth of the old knight he knew that Marlan had been eyeing him since the incident with Fenris.

But why?

But the old knight did not answer.

He walked over silently, walked past the altar in front of Fang Yuan, and walked a few steps before asking without looking back: "Since you appear in this place, I must inform Archbishop Farris, no opinion, right?" ”

"Archbishop Faris is?"

"Lady in the Archbishop of the Istania region, her knight." The old knight's answer was still concise and to the point.

This 'her knight' speaks volumes.

Fang Yu knew in his heart, the Chosen One.

Each archbishop of the gods of Orin is their chosen one, and different gods have different names, Angela's is called the Great Prophet, Workin's is the Craftsman of Wolkin, and the knight of Marlan refers specifically to her archbishop. Such a man is already the patriarch of a diocese, in charge of thousands of believers, placed on earth, at least at the level of a cardinal.

But Aitalia has a large number of gods, and the gods of Orin are of the same lineage, and although there will be some enmity between the gods, most of the well water does not interfere with the river water. Their followers also have clear goals for each other, and even in the same area, there will be multiple faiths, overlapping and overlapping, but not interfering with each other.

However, in different regions, there will still be a more religious existence, such as Istania, which has a strong commercial atmosphere, and there will be more temples of Lady Roman, which belongs to the important diocese of the goddess of business in Kaulin-Ishurian. Comparatively speaking, the Sanctuary of Marland is only more common in military fortresses like Bein.

After listening to the other party's brief answer, Fang Yu was also secretly taken aback in his heart, could he actually alarm a patriarch?

But when he thought that the other party recognized him at once, he was suddenly not so surprised, and there was quite a lot of movement outside. Thinking about the importance of the oracle sent down by the goddess that day, the knights and archbishops of the archdiocese immediately sent the corresponding message to each of the following dioceses and precincts. Either that, Marlan directly sent down an oracle and informed every believer of his own.

However, he thinks that the former is more likely, after all, the big cat people have never heard of it.

He did not answer yes or no to the other party's question, because the old knight's words did not sound like an inquiry for his opinion, but rather a notice.

He only asked: "In such weather, can you contact the Archdiocese of Istania?" ”

The elderly knight is putting his hand on the altar.

Listening to Fang Yuan's words, the latter shook his head slightly. "I'm just depositing the news with the goddesses, and when the storm passes, they'll know."

Fang Yu thought that this belief was really convenient, but he also extinguished his thoughts. It would be a surprise to him if the Sanctuary in Marlan had the ability to contact the outside world in such a situation, and he now had a lot of information to get in touch with the rest of the Seven Seas Brigade, and Bein and his party had gained too much.

Including the unbelievably large string of numbers displayed on the light page in front of him, which was already in Riesel's unit. It was too late to pay attention to this when he fled before, but now that he was free, Fang Yu immediately felt a sense of dizziness and unreality.

However, the old knight turned around at this time, and it was obvious that the page of light that did not exist for the natives was not visible in his dim eyes.

He only looked at Fang Yu quietly for a long time before he spoke:

"I know you have a lot of questions."

Fang Yu was slightly stunned.

But he does have a lot of questions to ask.

……

The elderly knight's name was Mai Yi Hill, Mai Yi Hill Blad Abdulbas Aidya.

Just from this name, you can tell that the other party is from a noble background, but this is normal, most of the Templars are noble, in fact, the big cat man is obviously not a commoner in Rotas, just look at the ring of his beard and the name engraved on it.

Brad means knight in Istania, which means that the surname is the highest in the family, but Fang Yu suspects that this is the elderly knight himself, as his father's surname Abdulbis is not a noble surname in Idania.

In fact, some innocent people will be selected through the temple to obtain the status of noble knights. In some areas, this is the only step of advancement for the lower classes. Although there are divisions within the religion, with a few Templar families monopolizing most of the resources, in Aitalia, where the true God is alive, at least nothing is without restraint.

Mai Yihil lit an oil lamp, brought two clean mats, and sat opposite him. There were chairs around, but they were probably the only clean seats in the temple at the moment.

Fortunately, Fang Yuan doesn't pay attention to this.

He was silent for a while before he asked:

"You ...... Looking for me? ”

It's a somewhat incoherent and slightly outlandish question. If he didn't know this, how could he come to this place?

But Mai Yihil didn't care, and nodded slowly.

"It's a goddess...... Lady Marlan's oracle? Fang Yu subconsciously wanted to say the goddess, but he suddenly realized that he was not a believer in Marlan, only the believers would use such a title, and they would generally say that our goddess was above. And if you are not a believer, it would be a bit offensive to say this.

Ms. Marlan is the official title of the god of war.

"Yes."

"But why ......"

Seeing that he was confused, Mai Yihil did not have the slightest surprise in his expression, and said lightly: "The oracle sent down by the Goddess is that the person she is looking for has already appeared, so that we can find the Savior of Fenris. ”

'The person she is looking for has already appeared', this sentence has some meaning to Fang Yu's ears. The one who is sought is undoubtedly himself. Although he did not dare to call himself the 'savior' of Fenris, his contribution to that incident was well known, and it would be hypocritical to be too modest.

And the words 'already in the world' show that this goddess is not a whim.

Could it be that the other party has been waiting for such an opportunity to appear?

Fang Yu couldn't help but think a little panicked.

Omniscience and omnipotence is only a crown that believers bestow on their gods, but the existence of such power may not exist in Aitalia. The gods were also focused only on their own realm, and even Angina, the wise god of knowledge, did not even dare to say that he knew the past.

At least the sun gods before the past, his followers know nothing.

Not to mention foreseeing the future.

But there are some ancient prophecies......

For example, the long scroll of the deep sea.

If there is any power in the eyes of the Elector, then this mysterious and unpredictable ability of foreknowledge is obviously enough to be called a kind of 'miracle', giving people a sense of insignificance, a sense of being hidden from unknown forces.

Fang Yu cautiously asked, "Excuse me, is this related to a certain prophecy......?" ”

But Mai Yihir glanced at him and shook his head: "Prophecy? The future is shrouded in a mist, and who really knows except the Most High Ita, and the daughter of the Great One, the Blind Goddess, who has gained the power of a corner of fate? The goddess gives revelations, but rarely foresees the future. ”

Fang Yu was stunned when he heard it, why didn't he follow the script. “…… So, why me? ”

"The goddess values fearless courage and the ability to change the situation, and those heroes of the time are the people she favors."

Fang Yu couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

It's equivalent to saying that Lady Marlan sent down an oracle with great fanfare, in order to find herself, that's all?

He opened his mouth, thinking that it must be a routine such as an ancient prophecy, looking for a savior, or a door opener—but how did it sound like he was just looking at his performance in Fenris?

The mystery that had just risen in my heart couldn't help but collapse completely for a while, leaving only chicken feathers. He'd heard of it before, and he was no stranger to it—wasn't that how Marlan chose his chosen one? Normally, she chooses one of her own Chosen One every fifteen years.

And the process of changing archbishops in each diocese is almost fifteen years, which is just the same as it.

The other gods are pretty much the same.

However, he seemed to remember that Marlan's Chosen One had been born just three years earlier.

And the gods hardly choose the Chosen One as God's Chosen One—

Mai Yihil nodded: "The goddess is choosing her spokesperson in the world. ”

"Spokesperson?" Fang Yu was slightly stunned: "Isn't it God's choice?" ”

"It may also be said that God has chosen it," replied the old knight, "but not exactly, there are very few records of spokesmen in history, but they do appear." ”

Fang Yu couldn't help but point at himself: "...... Is that what I am? ”

Mai Yihil bowed his head again.

This is a new statement, because it sounds at least a little more compelling than the fifteen-year class of the Chosen Ones. But Fang Yu keenly sensed something from the other party's attitude and asked:

"So there's more than one such agent, right?"

"Nature."

Sure enough, Fang Yu secretly said that it was really a pit.

He was full of disinterest in the so-called divine choice, and if something was very rare, he might still have the desire to attract people's attention, but this kind of fifteen-year divine choice was too cliché, and he didn't have the heart to compete for the bishop.

As for the spokesperson's statement, it sounds interesting, but there is more than one, what does it mean? It means that this thing may also be a rotten street good, and it sounds like there is a lot of trouble waiting for him.

With the lessons learned, he immediately realized that this was also a pitfall.

Fang Yu subconsciously wanted to ask himself if he could refuse this divine choice, because even if he was a goddess, he couldn't be unreasonable, right? Moreover, he is the Chosen One. The major temples have also signed the "Stargate Declaration" with Xingmen Port, which shows that the gods are also acquiescing to this contract, and they can't deny it, right?

All in all, the goddess should also ask his personal opinion, what if he doesn't want to be the spokesperson? Isn't it a bit of a sense of appointing oneself as a substitute in the world for no reason?

However, he glanced at the old knight in front of him, and thought about it, but he still didn't ask.

The other party is just the host of this temple, and he must not have the ability to answer this question on behalf of Marlan. He had better wait until Bishop Faris to ask this question.

It's just that when he thought of this, his heart suddenly moved.

Ameya is a saint, Marlan is also a saint, and the gods have been appearing frequently in Aitaria recently, are they all looking for their own spokesmen?

But here's the problem, as mentioned above, the gods have their own laws, although not all of them are similar to Ms. Marlan's fifteen-year term, but everything is the same, there must be a constitution, so that their followers can be prepared, right? Does the sudden and unusually search for a surrogate mean that something has happened?

And Fang Yu had a flash of inspiration in his heart, and almost immediately associated with a few words:

The evil star descends into the world, and the divine war begins.
