085. Worship

Four days later, in the early morning, when the rising sun shone on the top of the church and reflected the colorful light, there were already many people waiting in the square outside the church for the upcoming service. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is an activity that quickly became popular after the appearance of the church in Griffon, and the first worship service was attended by the first believers of the sun god in the griffon, most of them adventurers and commoners who had been treated by the spirit and the priest, and became believers of the sun god under the inspiration of the priest.

They are invited by the priest of the church to come to the church on the last day of the week after their work, to pray with the priest, to read the scriptures, to listen to the priest explain the canonical texts, to recite hymns, and to sing hymns. After returning from the church, those who attended the first service said that it was very meaningful, and that they were baptized in the light from body to soul.

By the time the armies from the Council of Nobles first confronted the Duchy of Griffons, the number of people who had come to worship in the church had already exceeded two hundred. Later, although the worship was temporarily suspended due to the beginning of the war and the tense situation, because the priests who presided over the ceremony went to war, the number of people who wished to enter the church to attend the service did not decrease, but tended to increase.

It wasn't until Isabella's five Ice Storms forcibly drove away the Noble Council troops and the Griffon Duchy and the Noble Council entered a phase of confrontation that the worship slowly recovered. At this time, those who had attended the church before were surprised to find that there were no more places in the church for them to worship, because there were so many people crowded into the church, including commoners, adventurers, merchants, and even some magistrates and other officials of the Duchy of Griffons.

"It may be a bit disrespectful to say that, but the church of the sun god is a bit small, and I think we should do something about it." A businessman-looking believer in the square said to his companion. His companion was also a merchant, a merchant who had come from far and wide in Gordonberg.

"That's right, I've already complained to the Griffon City Builder that not only will the first church of the Sun God on earth be built in magnificence, but the other six cities of the Duchy of Griffons will also need churches!" The Goldenberg merchant waved his large palm.

God knows that in order to prove his piety, he has not returned to Gordonberg for almost a month, and even the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce have been left to his henchmen. His words succeeded in attracting the attention of others in the square.

"yes, I didn't think I could go to the construction officer to complain."

Others suddenly realized that although the church was the property of the gods in the world, it was clearly within the responsibility of the construction officer to expand the church.

For the words of the Gordonberg merchants, people from the other six cities could not agree more, the appearance of the church fills the gap in the griffon city in terms of systemic healing, and the outstanding effect of the holy light spell is the gift of the sun god to everyone who receives the treatment of the church.

The only horror that displeased them was that there was only one church in the entire Duchy of Griffon. How can a church, heavens, a church be enough? Although the faithful have found that the number of spherical creatures that have recently floated and played in the church gardens and fountains has reached a full 98, and there is absolutely no problem with the treatment, there are too many people who wish to worship with the priest in the church.

Although a priest once told everyone during a service that there is no essential difference between worshipping at home and worshipping in a church, and that as long as you observe the Ten Commandments, you are a qualified believer in the sun, it is of no avail. On the last day of the week, the square outside the church was always packed, just like now.

To make matters worse, whether it was Patriarch Simon - the honorific title of the Church of the Sun God for a priest who had reached the golden rank of power, equivalent to the archbishop of other churches - or the other silver priests in the church, they did not seem to be in a hurry at all, and had no idea of expanding and building churches in other cities.

"Maybe it has something to do with the recent situation?" A one-armed adventurer thought for a moment and said, "The Silver Tower has another golden archmage coming to the noble council after Moore, and it is estimated that reinforcements from the Church of the Dawn will soon come to Celt." ”

After their Grand Duchess Isabella forced the troops of the Noble Council back to the fortress of Newlandon with five ice storms, the north-south confrontation took place, and the next month was uneventful, but everyone knew it was calm before the storm. Sure enough, not long after, Stephen, the second golden archmage of the Silver Tower, came to the Southern Council of Nobles.

"But now we have five full gold pros!" A small child stretched out a palm and counted as he counted his fingers, "Grand Duchess Isabella, Lord St. Andrew the Golden Sword, Patriarch Simon, Lady Vesper, and Mr. Phoenix the Immortal." ”

On the day that Vesper and the immortal Phoenix descended on Griffon, the unknown people in the city thought that they had been attacked by the Gold Pros again, and later when Simon announced that the two Gold Pros were his own people, many people jumped up with excitement. Since Levitt became the Golden Juggernaut, Celtic, no, it should be said that the Duchy of Griffons is simply ushering in the spring of the Golden Professional.

Although they later learned that Lady Vesper had come to Griffon City because of Archduchess Isabella, as Isabella's teacher, it was not too much to count the golden archmage of the Flame faction and her demon pet immortal bird into the battle power of the Duchy of Griffon.

"That's right, it's a pity that the Grand Duke, the Grand Duchess, and Lord Andrew don't seem to have come back for the time being because of something extremely important, otherwise the five gold's combat power could take down the noble council in one fell swoop." The current situation is that the Duchy of Griffons has Simon, Vesper, and the Immortal Bird three gold, and the Council of Nobles has Gavin, Stephen, and Moore, and it is really unpredictable whether the battle will be won or lost.

"Of course, the noble council did not dare to launch an attack at will, I heard that their southeast sea area was attacked by sea monsters some time ago, the sea water was rolling, tsk, tsk, and the entire coastal area lasted for a whole month of heavy rainfall." An adventurer dressed as a thief speaks mysteriously, only to be taunted and distrusted by a group of people.

He was anxious to prove that his news was accurate, but no one wanted to continue listening to him, for it was at this time that they found out that the church was finally open.

Today's churches are not the same as usual! These devout believers noticed the change the moment they entered the church.

In the front nave of the church, there is a pool with a diameter of about two meters, and in the pool there is a chale, from which a steady stream of clear water gushes out and falls into the pool little by little. It was a rare occasion that the priests of the church finally planned to renovate and expand the church, and this was their first reaction.

Sharp-eyed devotees found that the clear water gushing out of the chalice seemed to be different from the water they were used to seeing, clearer, softer, and of course, more agile. Every drop of water makes a crisp and pleasant sound when it falls from the Holy Grail, and even standing here listening to the sound of water dripping all day will not seem boring.

"This is the holy pool that Lady Teresa just set up yesterday, and there is holy water in the pool, and everyone can receive a small bottle of holy water after the service in the future." The priest explained this by the surprise and confusion on their faces.

Who is Teresa? This is probably everyone's doubt.

After a few months, they were already familiar with the church, and Patriarch Simon generally ran between the church and the lord's house (Adam's residence), and it was often the twelve priests in the church who presided over the worship and treatment. Now the priest with the strength of the Silver Rank said that this sacred pool was set up by a man named Teresa, and that he used an honorific title!

Many people's hearts beat faster and their panting worsened. Is that so? Is it the same as they think?

Soon the doubts were solved, for by the time they entered the atrium there were already Simeon, a kind old woman, and fourteen priests.

The old woman's wand in her hand, which is as tall as Simon's, and the obvious sun cross on her robes remind everyone of her status as a priest of the Helios Church, and it is very likely that she is a golden professional of the same level as Simon!

When the crowd found their place, Teresa rose from her seat, an old but powerful voice echoing through the atrium: "Teresa, Templar Confessor and Patriarch. It is an honor to meet so many sisters and brothers bathed in the light when I am here for the first time, and I thank Simon and all of you for your efforts. If all of you here recognize and abide by the Ten Commandments, we will share the glory and disgrace of the Church together in the years to come. ”

The crowd immediately understood what the Sanctuary meant, the official name of the Church of the Sun God, just as the Lord of the Dawn's forces in Yupla were called the Church of the Dawn.

They quickly took the message and put it in their heads, and then let out a small cheer for the Templar to usher in the second patriarch after Simon. The merchants of Gordonberg even saw the muscles on Simon's face loosen when they cheered, and he almost smiled slightly, but in the end he chose to nod slightly.

Teresa stretched out her left hand and pressed down, "I'll preside over today's service, but before that......" she looked at the one-armed adventurer in the crowd, "Are you ready to grow new arms?" ”

What the? Not only the adventurer who lost his left arm, but also the others who came to the service almost shouted in surprise. They had the impression that the Templar's healing skills were very high, and that a single light could often heal wounds and diseases, but wouldn't it be too exaggerated to grow an arm that had already been broken?

God, there was a sound of gasping neatly in the atrium.

"Yes...... Yes, my lord! The one-armed adventurer replied excitedly. It's been ten years since he lost his left arm in a battle, and now that the Templar Patriarch has told him that he can grow his arm again, happiness has come so suddenly!

A halo of light appeared on the adventurer's head, and a holy light fell on the adventurer. He felt a pain in the place where his arm was broken, and then his bones, muscles, and blood vessels grew rapidly under the action of the Holy Light, and even the severe pain caused by it could not stop him from shedding tears of excitement and happiness. After about two minutes, the holy light that shrouded the adventurer dissipated, and a smooth and white left arm reappeared on him.

"The sun god is above!" The adventurer raised his left arm and prayed reverently.

Regeneration of divine power, high-level healing spells of the Templar, rebirth of severed limbs. (To be continued.) )
