Chapter 131: After the Falling Star (6) The Priesthood System, and the Voyage with the Saints
The ancestor of the saints, May, is the founder and perfecter of the priest system, the first exorcist in the world, and the greatest walker of the star gods on earth.
Most of the information that has been handed down by Mei Yi, the ancestor of the saints, is linked to the priest system, and there is very little information about her own personal issues, coupled with her too glorious status, so that in the middle period, few people will discuss Mei Yi's identity, so in this era, Mei Yi's past is no longer known.
Judging from the few surviving historical materials, Mei Yi was born in the Doreman Plain, at least around 1090 A.D., and it is certain that her family was at least a glorious noble, and the ancestor of the saint was still a very favored woman in the early years of the family, otherwise Mei would not have been exposed to magic.
Through the sporadic conversations with her disciples, the second-generation saints, when Mei Yi lived in seclusion in Hipali in middle age, it can be judged that Mei Yi once had a daughter, but unfortunately died by being sacrificed to the devil.
The accuracy of this piece of information can be seen in the book "The Rest of My Life: Continued Dante Edition", co-authored by Nichelle and Dante Davy.
In addition, it is mentioned here that "The Rest of My Life: Continued" is a very common travelogue, but Dante's exclusive version is not sold to the public, and due to Dante's own longevity, it records many secrets at that time.
For example, in the famous Battle of Spari, the letter written by Xiuge to Surifer was extracted from Dante's exclusive version, which can be said to be of very high value.
Luckily, this is also the passage that Dante's exclusive version allows to be published.
"Hello envoy sent by the dear head of the Xingqimu Academy, I am Lolfe (i.e., the famous second-generation saint, who inherited and perfected the priesthood of the first saint - editor's note), and I am a child saved by the mentor in the small village, and at that time, without the help of the mentor, who sealed the evil devil and gave us food, my village would probably not survive. ”
"And, because I went to study with the Guru, I escaped the destruction of my village, alas~ not to talk about this, therefore, I admired the Guru very much, and I firmly remembered every move of the Guru. ”
[Covering the family history of the saints?] ([] represents Dante's questioning)
"Do you have enough paper?"
[Rest assured, on this continent, whoever lacks paper can't be missing me.] 】
"Well, since you've said that, I'll just let it go, and I remember very well that when I took my sister to the guru, the guru was very fond of my sister and said that she was very much like her daughter who died in the sacrifice. ”
"The saint also has a daughter, and who is the saint's husband?]
"I don't know, I'm probably dead, you also know what happened to Sulasi in the past years, it's not strange who died, my sister, my village..."
[I'm sorry.] 】
Regardless, Maye had, or had daughters, and all of her family had been separated before Mayi lived in seclusion to Hipari.
The study of Mei Yi's life experience is here, because Mei Yi, who is still in the heavenly realm, does not say it, no one knows the past of Mei Yi, a mysterious woman, and Mei Yi's past has nothing to do with the priest, so I will talk about it for the time being.
The next thing to focus on is Mei Yi and the pastoral system she represents.
The priest system is a new system born out of the mage system, and has a completely different meditation model from the mage system, which is specifically used to restrain demons - of course, because of the similarity of the meditation model, the priest's model can also use some light magic, and is particularly proficient in projection, contract, space and other spells.
For example, before the Saint Mei Yi perfected the system, the priest exorcism, in fact, Mei Yi was a priest, and the way of exorcism was completely dependent on the saint's unique meditation model, and there was not as much magic as the back, just using the power of the gap to directly intervene.
Therefore, in the priest's cultivation system, there is an extremely special model, if he happens to get close to this model when solidifying the model, then he will be like the original saint ancestor Mei Yi, and he can use the power of the gap without even practicing spells, which can be said to be naturally suitable for becoming a priest.
For this kind of people, the priesthood uses "saints" as their title, and Maye is the ancestor of the saints, which is unfortunately quite scarce in number and has never been able to produce them in large quantities.
The most terrifying thing about the saints is that they can use the Divine Descent from the emerald level, and their ability to withstand faith is much higher than that of normal priests.
The system level of the priest is the same as that of the fighter system, the white jade level - the Xuanhuang level - the fire phosphorus level - the jade level - the purple carrot level - the transcendent legend, and the titles are apprentice priests, official priests, senior priests, high priests, and priest saints.
The priest system and the beast master system have one thing in common, that is, they are both born out of the old system. Therefore, just as the white jade-level apprentices of the beast master system are all running spiritual power like the fighter system, the white jade-level priest apprentices and mage apprentices are also building meditation models.
However, unlike mages, mages have to choose the most suitable meditation model for themselves to build, and the task of priest apprentices is much simpler, they know which model they want to build from the beginning, because there is only one model of priests - in May's time there was only one, and in this era there is no distinction between chakral priests, healing priests, and exorcist priests.
After the priest system reaches the Xuanhuang level, it will begin to open the hole, and when the cave begins, the priest can already use some superficial power, and it may be useless to deal with the true body of those devils, but it is more than enough to eliminate those items that are attached to the power of the devil.
After the hole is opened, there is a jade-level solidified meditation model, and some superficial operations are carried out using the model that has been painstakingly excavated.
When the meditation model is completely solidified, as a fire phosphorus-level priest, in addition to performing the hollow meditation model like those mages, he also has to engrave his meditation model with a divine descending circle.
The Divine Descent Circle is the third magic circle that can be driven by spiritual power after the Meditation Array and the Beast Master Array, and it was the first to be used by the gods to make containers.
It was through this vessel that Mei Yi was inspired, and then after thirty years of modification by Mei Yi's disciples and the second generation of saints, the divine descent circle was finally perfected.
When the divine descending circle is engraved, the priest system is no longer only one Mei Yi who can perform the divine descent, but as long as he sets out, he can carry out the divine descent.
And after God came, the priest finally had a means of mass destruction.
Above the jade level, there is the purple dill level that separates the mortal saints, and other systems will appear at this level, and the priest is no exception, after Mei Yi becomes the purple dill level, her realm can gather faith.
In the year 1150 of the Great Calendar, when the seventh batch of Mei Yi's students left the school, the star god, who had not been in contact with Mei Yi for more than 20 years, once again issued a task to Mei Yi, which was still an exorcism, but this time, it was no longer an exorcism in the territory of Sulasi.
The place you are going to is a place you have never been to, where their language is strange to you, their customs are strange, where the devil is rampant, where the faith is lost, and you need to perform exorcisms, from the inside out. 】
"Question, is the situation in that place the situation in Surassie 1127, or the situation in Surassie 1123?
Mei Yi often teaches students that exorcism is divided into occasions, and when you exorcise demons, you should consider the consequences of exorcism to devil traders.
In the case of Mei Yi herself, for example, she only began to exorcise demons on a large scale in 1127, and in 1123, she only performed exorcisms on some demons that were too ugly.
Why is that?
Because in 1123, all of Sulasi [Mei Yi has always been accustomed to calling her hometown Sulasi] suffered from natural disasters, but the central government was unable and did not want to rescue the civilians.
If Mei Yi is exorcizing demons at this time, then the consequence is that the people will not be able to get the land to sacrifice, and Mei Yi will not be able to give food like the devil, then it will cause mass death.
However, in 1127, the natural disaster was over, and it was time to resume production, but the demons who did not leave were still keen to provoke wars and get blood sacrifices, and then Mei Yi needed to treat herself.
Therefore, Mei Yi's principle is that when the central government has the ability to control the locality, it will carry out exorcism, and when the central government loses control of the local area, Mei Yi can only let the devil run wild, otherwise there is no place to exchange food, which will only lead to the death of more people.
Hearing Mei Yi's question, the star god was silent for a while before passing on the second paragraph.
[At least the next place you will go to is Antiem in 1127.] 】
From the god's answer, Mei Yi got two messages.
First, the rulers of those places did not lose control of the lower strata as Sulassie did after the Battle of Myrdal.
Second, those places are not the same as the previous Sulassie or even Goschug, but specifically mentioned the same as Antiem, which means that although there is a government in those places, the capital has lost its control.
After understanding the situation, Mei Yi spent half a month gathering more than thirty students who were still young and their hearts were full of ideals rather than speculation, and with more than sixty servants, they were ready to leave the land where they had lived in seclusion for twenty years and go to that distant and strange land to exorcism.
The first stop Mei Yi arrived at was a land called Hefei by the servants of the gods.
By the time Meyi arrived in this land, Hephi had already come out of a state of complete uncontrol, probably similar to Hippari thirty years ago, the anarchy had basically ceased, and various large and small forces had initially divided the territory and began to settle down.
At this time, the devil that continues to exist is out of time, and the already stable Hefei does not need the devil to rip off customers at a high price, so Mei Yi can rest assured that the exorcism will cause harm to the Hefei people.
