78. You still have

Azure Continent.

Kingdom of the Roses.

This used to be a relatively weak kingdom on the entire continent, and most of the time, it was a small country that could only survive in the cracks of other large kingdoms at the cost of money.

But all of this has undergone a qualitative change when the Mysterious Church gradually appeared in front of the curtain and cultivated strong people for this continent.

With a large number of believers, the Rose Kingdom has become the sweetheart of the continent, which has made the former great powers rush to it.

Yes, the mysterious church, which used to survive only in the shadows and was not directly recognized by the major kingdoms, has become the orthodoxy that the major kingdoms vigorously promote.

The reason for all this is that the believers of the Mystery Church, who are frantically chasing the secret god, gradually find that they are on the way to praying again and again and looking directly at the form of the god.

Not only were they able to capture the bodies of the gods more clearly, but they also possessed extraordinary powers under the erosion of the power of the gods.

The composition of his body still retains the image of a human being, and the subtle differences are only reflected in the deeper and deeper eyes.

Among them, the people who were the most infected by the divine power, the whites of their eyes gradually changed to dark tones.

Knowing that the entire whites of their eyes have turned into thick ink-like blackness, if they continue to chase the gods and look directly at the gods, their ink-black eyes will derive similar but completely different strange veins to the sides of the temples.

The darker the tone of the eyes, the stronger the divine power they have!

Such people were gradually born, and at first they were all nobles, which undoubtedly caused panic in the Azure Continent.

Countless kingdoms regarded them as heretics and purged them.

However, the end result is clear.

In those short periods of time, the heresy known as the Son of the Devil has become the pride of this continent!

They were given the honorific title of "knights", or "oracles"!

The reason is very simple, that is, the army that once purged them was easily overthrown by the believers who had gained divine power!

It stands to reason that those frightened royal families will not continue to fight them to the death, because it is a completely unequal confrontation!

Every knight and oracle has the strength to face an army of 100 men!

Among them, those supreme beings have the power to subvert a kingdom!

So when most of these people were once nobles, the kingdoms compromised one after another, not only did not hold them accountable, but instead gave those people the ultimate position of power!

After that, the kingdoms became completely believers in the Mystery Church, and built the Mystery Church on a large scale, and even the royal family became a part of the following gods.

Recently, however, something happened that dealt a serious blow to the reputation of the Occult Church, and the already undetermined civilian believers began to waver.

The reason is that a few divine envoys who were infected by divine power actually lost their minds in a state of extreme anger.

And their bodies are also mutating in the direction of the horrific deformity, and they begin to become chaotic and violent, indiscriminately attacking all living things around them.

However, under the suppression of some high-ranking oracles, there was no large-scale riot among the people.

The oracles gave the reason, and it was probably not everyone who was qualified to follow the gods.

Only an existence with an extremely tough mind can control it, a power that does not belong to the mortal world!

After killing those monsters that had lost their minds, the high-level oracles strictly promoted the number of times each believer participated in the ritual of summoning gods.

Because they find that the more they are infected by the power of the gods, the easier it is to fall into a state of madness in a state of rage, unable to extricate themselves!

Therefore, cultivating a resilient mind and maintaining one's emotional calmness has become a compulsory course in the Mystery Church.

New believers are forbidden to participate in corporate ceremonies until they are ready.

In addition, the high-level priests also set an example by undergoing regular mental examinations and establishing a monitoring mechanism within the church for those who have participated in the ritual of seeing God.

Once someone is suspected of being mentally unstable and falls into a state of instability, they will be isolated and monitored in all directions.

In such a good attitude of admitting mistakes, and quickly eliminating the irrational, the people did not continue to make trouble.

On the contrary, the number of civilian believers who join the Mystery Church is increasing.

After all......

This is the only legal shortcut for them to quickly turn over from commoners to magnates.

……

One of the ten cities of the Kingdom of Roses.

Known as the "City of Gold", Boer City is one of the richest cities with rich mineral deposits.

This is one of the first few large cities in the development of the Mysterious Church, and today the number and scale of the Holy See is second to none in the kingdom.

In the evening sun, the entire city of Boer was coated with a film of light, as if the whole city were made of gold.

Angus, a fourth-order knight, walked on his way to the largest mysterious church on the edge of the city.

The fourth order means that he has participated in countless ceremonies to see the gods, and has had the honor of witnessing the form of the gods four times.

The rules and regulations of the Church of the Mystery are very strict.

The Divine Rite will only be held after the evening.

And the largest Holy See, usually located on the outskirts of the city.

One is for the fanatical prayer of the evening, so as not to disturb the people.

The second most important reason is that in the middle of the night when the population is sparse and silent, the chances of summoning the gods to come and receive the tribute are much greater.

No believer knows why.

But this is the result of generations of sages.

Of course, only the god of secret horror himself, and Tang Chuan, who freed them, knew that it was because of Tang Chuan's teaching to them.

Don't easily appear in crowded places to avoid accidentally causing mass casualties among mortals.

Angus walked on the winding path paved with rows of stone slabs, carrying a huge long sword, but his steps were terrifyingly light.

The whites of his eyes have completely turned black, and the original golden pupils have also shrunk by one and turned into a deep yellow.

However, it is his unparalleled pride.

Walking on this path, which has been trampled countless times, Angus was originally in a relaxed mood, and even hummed a little song in his mouth.

This is part of the technique of the bishops, teaching the knights who have seen God several times to learn to appreciate the scenery and listen to cheerful and melodious music, which will help them to maintain a good state of mind and not to degenerate into chaos.

But suddenly, Angus frowned at the little song in his throat, and looked at the one in front of him, who came out of the shadows, wearing a hood to cover his face, and looked suspicious.

Angus stopped cautiously and asked, "Who are you, I feel a familiar aura, but it seems that I have never seen you." ”

The hooded man lowered his head and said in a tone that was obviously a change of voice, "It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I'm here to save you." ”

Angus scoffed and said, "The only ones who can save me are myself and the gods, and you, neither." ”

The hooded man shook his head, still did not raise his head, his lips hidden in the shadows moved, and said: "You don't know if I am yourself, and I don't know if I am a god, you have too many things that you don't know, and I will tell you one by one in the future." ”

If he hadn't noticed that this person's body didn't seem to be weaker than his own aura, Angus would have beaten him up and lifted the hood that pretended to be mysterious.

Angus seemed relaxed, but in fact he was vigilant, and said, "Then you came here to tell me something?" ”

The hooded man said in an extremely serious tone: "Let me tell you, don't go to church today, otherwise your life will fall into endless sorrow." ”

Angus narrowed his eyes and said, "Anyway, today is not a ceremony to see the gods, it doesn't matter if I go or not, but if you want to give me a convincing reason, first of all, you have to let you see who you are." ”

......

Just as the two were facing each other, there was another sound of broken footsteps behind Angus.

He looked to the side with his peripheral vision.

I saw a strange knight with a big sword on his back, his chest slightly open, and a grass root in the corner of his mouth, revealing an uninhibited and wild atmosphere, and a handsome and exotic face, walking from the back of the path.

Tang Chuan chewed the grass roots at the corner of his mouth, and when he passed by Angus, he paused slightly, and said, "I suggest you, it's better not to listen to him, he is hopeless, and you still have it." ”

As he spoke, he didn't care whether the two of them understood it or not, and walked all the way to the top of the winding path.

"Who are you?"

Behind him, the puzzled voices of Angus and the hooded man were heard.

Tang Chuan didn't reply, spit the grassroots aside, and said, "One of the two that can save you depends on who you believe." ”
