11 The Changed Situation
"The earth and all that is in it belong to the Creator Lennon, and the inhabitants of the world and the period belong to the Creator Lennon. It is He who laid the earth on the seas, and He who created the whole world on the rivers......"
The magnetic sound echoed in the silent church, solemn and solemn, like the bell of the early morning, ringing continuously, as if striking in people's hearts.
The young priest spoke in a low voice at the pulpit, and the residents of Hull Town, who sat upright on the benches below, listened to the sermon with a pretentious expression.
In fact, the content of this sermon was not much different from what they had heard before, but the voice of the young priest in front of them sounded much more moving than the old priest before.
It's not just a nice thing to hear, it's also has a captivating influence, which can easily stir up emotions in people's hearts and make the atmosphere of the whole venue full of piety.
"Who can step into the kingdom of God in Lennon? Who can stay in His temple? Is he the one whose hands are clean and his heart is pure, and who does not admire vanity? He who does not swear falsely, who does not deceive? Or—"
The continuous sound suddenly stopped, causing the believers who were listening to the sermon to be dazed, but then they knew why—
A group of knights in glazed black armor suddenly walked in through the open church door and walked straight in the direction of the pulpit!
"This is a sacred catechumen, you barbarians can't just walk around!"
A devout elderly religious member stood up from his chair and shouted a reprimand, but the intruders paid no attention to him.
Then, under the watchful gaze of the crowd, the men went under the pulpit and escorted out one of the deacons who were standing there assisting the young priest in his sermon.
It was all very confusing, especially when the believers found out that the deacon had been taken away with a pale face and trembling legs.
The priest on the pulpit was still calm, and after looking at the backs of the men, he spoke to the believers.
"But where there is light, darkness will not prevail against it."
It is impossible to know what the exact meaning of this sentence is, but seeing that the priest was not surprised by this, the people here fell silent.
So the sermon continued.
The voice of the young priest reverberated through the vast church, and its voice was steady, but it was able to fully immerse the faithful in the words he was speaking.
Focused, enlightened, pious, ashamed......
As the sermon continued, emotions came over the faces of the believers.
Soon after, when the sermon ended, some believers who had planned to leave after listening to the sermon chose to stay, and then either went to the priest to ask about their doubts, or went to the confessional hall and waited for the priest to come and tell them about their crimes.
Everything was going on in an orderly manner, and the response to the first sermon given by a young priest named Bernie to Gülen Chapel was very enthusiastic.
But this repercussion is insignificant in the midst of greater turmoil -
As a result of the revelations of the Father who had lost both eyes, the parish church sent a team of members of the Inquisition, and with their arrival, one after another the clergy in the Gülen church were interrogated and even imprisoned.
Senior Deacon Temple, Young Deacon Enoch, Assistant Deacon Dart, Rodney, Moulton, Virgil, ......
Jonah, the holy water blender, Ronald the clerk, and Moore the tax collector......
More than half of the clergy were investigated, two-thirds of the non-staff were implicated, and the "fire" caused by the series of attacks in Hull was initially burned only in the secular world, but the turmoil caused by the spread to the Gülen church was particularly strong.
Including the middle-aged deacon who had gone with Bernie to the city council, the core members of Gülen Church had been wiped out.
Even the rest are all in danger.
But as the above positions became vacant, some ambitious clergy saw hope.
As a result, at the moment when there were one vacancy after another, some people began to be active inside and outside the church, which relatively dispelled some of the panic in the Gülen church.
All of this was seen by Bernie, and he even encouraged some outstanding performers in public during this period.
As a result, the originally lifeless church has quietly appeared with a ray of vitality at this moment.
These phenomena are difficult to know about outside the church, including the faithful who come to hear the scriptures preached. So they couldn't understand why a group of armed men would break in during the sermon and take a holy deacon away.
However, they are more familiar with what has happened in the whole Hull Town in the past two days-
The mayor of the town, who was originally among the victims, was suddenly interrogated by the church, and some of the merchants or union presidents who had stirred up trouble in Shiphull Town also disappeared from people's sight one after another.
The resulting chaos brought Hull to a halt several times, and it only intensified when the serial attacker, who was supposed to be held tightly in prison, suddenly escaped and disappeared!
The escape from prison was quite bizarre, not only did a large number of people create cases in various parts of Shiphull Town that night, causing the official forces to disperse, but also a team of elites suddenly attacked the prison, and even the prison itself inexplicably ignited a fire!
Even by the time the guards arrived at the scene, the person had already disappeared.
And then another search was launched, which also ended in failure.
This caused a lot of dissatisfaction, including the aristocratic forces behind the victims, including the church, including the local people of Shiphull-
If the reason for not investigating deeply before was because the murderer himself was in hand, it was enough to erase the anger of some people, but when the murderer successfully escaped from prison in what should have been a tight prison, there was no reason for some people to make a big deal smaller.
Because this prison break clearly shows that there is another organization and accomplice behind the murderer!
What is even more intolerable is that the patrol team has not been able to find the direction of the murderer to flee after the escape......
This had happened the night before, so when the sermon was over, Bernie didn't mean to see Wolfe, the sheriff of Hull, come to the church, and sincerely hope that the church would help them find the missing murderer.
This attitude is completely opposite to not long ago, and the pressure on the other party in the past two days is very high.
But it also means that Bernie has finally opened up the situation here after coming to Shiphull Town.
However, he didn't think it was a big deal, and Bernie's response to the sheriff's request was very flat.
"I'll inform the Bishop, of the difficulties facing Hull Town right now." He replied to the sheriff's request somewhat absent-mindedly.
"As for whether the above will send more people here to help investigate, it's not something I can do."
Sheriff Wolf was silent.
I thought the young priest would be elated when he heard the deputy's request for compromise, but now it seems that he didn't pay attention to it at all?
Does he really not care, or is he pretending to be calm?
It stands to reason that it should be pretended, but it looks like the other party, but it doesn't look like a ...... at all
Could it be that this person is actually a man who has no ambition at all?
His Excellency the Sheriff was puzzled by this.
But alas, no matter how much he guessed, he couldn't have guessed what Bernie was thinking right now.
In fact, what Bernie is thinking about at the moment is not complicated-
After a period of research, his devouring sequence has been basically transformed.
It's just that if you want to use it perfectly, you still need some corresponding conditions.
In other words, it needs to have a lot of life as its "ration".
As for the current situation in Hull Town, Bernie really didn't see it.
Relative to the overall situation, all this is just a small step towards his goal, and when things unfold, the result is actually predestined.
