Chapter Eighty-Eight: A Sacrifice to the God of Light
......
"Looks like this is the den of this Earth Bear. Knight Horn stood up and looked around, his eyes bursting with fine light, "I heard that the Earth Bear likes to eat some refined iron ore, but I didn't expect the rumors to be true. All this is the guidance and protection of my Lord~"
He prayed a prayer reverently, and his faith grew stronger in his heart.
In the next moment, between Horn and Wu Hui, the originally nonexistent faith channel suddenly became much stronger and more stable.
Hey?
Wu Hui checked, Horn, this old boy has changed from a shallow believer to a true believer?
This old boy is really difficult to serve, and he made such a big battle before he became a true believer?
Hehe, this old boy, sooner or later he will make you a saint believer, and after he dies, let you fly to heaven, and whip him well, Wu Hui's heart sneered, and he had secretly arranged a way out for him.
"This matter must be kept secret by all, and if the slightest bit of information is leaked, it will be punished as apostasy. The Holy Goddess of Light declared solemnly.
"Yes, Your Highness. Everyone knelt down on one knee and solemnly swore an oath, and the atmosphere was solemn.
"Yes, luck. Wu Hui is also very satisfied with the overall result after this arrival. Not only did he get rid of a level 5 Earth Bear, but he also harvested a hematite deposit.
At this time, there is no shortage of fine iron, and the blacksmiths of the Divine Kingdom can also make every effort to build weapons and equipment, prepare for a decisive battle with Viscount Connor, and finally take the entire Luan region.
The only thing that made Wu Hui a little depressed was that the allocated emergency divine power was consumed in an instant.
Fortunately, those divine powers were not wasted, and after this stubble, the will of Priest Harry and the Templar Marcy was more than a step stronger, laying the foundation for the future promotion of saints.
The rest of the Templar soldiers, after this crisis, became much more religious again, two of them were promoted to fanatics on the spot, and the rest of them may also transform themselves into fanatics within a few days.
All in all, it's good value for money.
Now, it is inconvenient for Wu Hui to stay in the human world anymore, after all, this time he has come from consciousness himself, and the consumption of divine power is much greater than that of God's Eye.
With divine power so stretched, every extra second left is a waste.
He instructed the Holy Maiden of Light on the next matters, such as offering part of the bear meat essence to the top.
In the next moment, Wu Hui ended his advent state, and his consciousness returned to the kingdom of God, returning to the ordinary body lying in the villa.
Then, Wu Hui, who had nothing to do, began to look forward to the next big meal. The barbecue has to be made, well, there must be a steamer, a wok and a shovel must be missing, and the gods have to use wood to stuff some fine charcoal.
After Wu Hui finished conceiving his kitchenware, he ordered the divine craftsman to take the time to build it, anyway, the other party can only rely on divine metal to slowly build some superb equipment because of the lack of ordinary refined iron.
Just as Wu Hui was in high spirits preparing for his lavish feast.
In the Nether Cavern.
A group of knights are also disposing of the massive corpse of the Earth Bear under the leadership of Sir Horn.
This is an exaggerated beast of size, and it can't be handled in just a day or two.
"Sir Horn. The Holy Maiden of Light arrived, "How's the selection of ingredients for my lord?"
"Your Highness, it will be several more days. I deliberately had the tenderest part of the bear's body cut off as tribute, and the bear's paw that my lord had pointed out was also cleaned up. ”
Horn wiped the blood from his face, gasping for breath as he replied.
The skin of the Earth Bear is too thick and too tough, the other soldiers can't peel it off at all, he can only play in person, the entire bear skin is almost all peeled off by him alone, Rao is that he is strong in cultivation and full of fighting spirit, and he is tired enough at this time.
The skin of the bear, which had been stripped off, was hung on the wall of the cave behind him to dry, and the huge bearskin, which was almost two stories high, looked quite spectacular.
"Good work, Sir Horn. The Holy Maiden of Light saluted.
"It's all for me, and it's not hard. ”
Horn returned the knightly salute, his face was not obvious, but his heart was secretly strange.
My lord's taste seems to be a little special? He attaches so much importance to the bear's paw, and even specially asks for an offering by name?
But strange is strange, no one in this world has ever seen a true God of Light, who knows what our Lord is like?
As he spoke, he took out a small bag of delicate velvet cloth from his bosom and asked the holy woman, "What should I do with this earth-based fifth-level magic core?"
The saint Catherina took the cloth bag, and her jade fingers twisted the magic core in the bag, only to see that it was the size of a walnut, the surface was as smooth as jade, and it slightly exuded an earthy yellow light, and she could vaguely feel that it contained majestic and powerful power.
The magic core is the core of the source of the mysterious power of the Demon Beast, and it is also the most precious essence part of the Demon Beast. And a fifth-level magic core is already a very rare treasure.
"Let's sacrifice to my lord together. ”
The Holy Maiden of Light actually vaguely knew that although my lord God of Light had not fallen as in the legend, he was at least in a very weak state, and he needed to regain his strength to rise, and perhaps this fifth-level demon core would be helpful to my lord.
The Bright Saintess paused for a moment and said: "The level 5 earth bear is full of treasures, not only the bear meat can be used to supplement the fighting qi and strengthen the physique, the bear skin can be used to make armor, and the bear bile and ground bear bones are even better potions, worth hundreds of gold franks, you let them be careful, don't break the bear bile." ”
"Yes, I'll be careful in everything. ”
Horn nodded in response.
While the two were talking, Langdon, who had been ordered to go back to Gru Town to gather men, also returned.
He brought more than a hundred believers. In order to keep it a secret, each of these believers is a true believer or above, and they do their best to mine hematite at this mine.
The town of Grew itself is not a mining area, and there are neither specialized mining tools nor specialized miners, but fortunately, most of the hematite in this area is open-pit mines, even if only iron drills and pickaxes can be mined, and the efficiency is quite good.
In just a few days, the hematite dug up by the enthusiastic and unlazy believers weighed more than ten tons and was piled up into a large pile.
By this time, the bearskins had been tanned, the meat and paws had been almost pickled, and Susan, who had been sent back to Glough to collect spices, had done everything she could to scavenge the warehouses of Glouburg and buy enough spices from the town's wealthy merchants.
The Holy Maiden Catherina prayed to Wu Hui, and after obtaining Wu Hui's permission, she began to choose a place in the cave to build a sacrificial altar.
Soon, a small altar was built.
Although the altar is small, there is no shortage of things that should be there.
White candles were fixed to the cave walls, and flickering candles illuminated the small altar.
On the altar, the surface paved with white stone reflects white light in the candlelight, and it is spotlessly clean. The half-human-tall statue is small but expressive, exuding an aura of divine majesty. The lily of the valley flowers with dew drops were tied into bunches and placed in the four corners of the altar, adding a bit of purity and holiness.
The sacrifices used for sacrifice were sorted into categories, neatly stacked on the side of the altar, bear paws, bear skins, magic cores, iron ore, etc., as well as the corpses of six soldiers who died in battle, as well as a lot.
The clergy led the faithful around the altar in a solemn and solemn atmosphere.
In front of everyone's attention, the Saint Catherina slowly ascended to the altar, knelt down in front of the idol and prayed sincerely.
"Gracious and great Lord, please accept the devotion of the faithful. Let your light walk on earth as you walk in heaven......"
Under the candlelight, the saint clasped her hands on her chest, looked up slightly at the idol in front of her, her blue eyes were fanatical and persistent, as if looking at the greatest place in the world.
This is her only faith, and she will dedicate her life to the deity.
Infected by her, the gathered believers unconsciously knelt down, their expressions becoming fanatical and reverent. With their heads bowed, they began to pray in a low voice in tune with the rhythm of Her Highness the Holy Maiden.
"Merciful and Great Lord......"
The sound of pious prayers gathered into a tidal wave and spread far and wide.
For a while, the entire cave was immersed in a solemn atmosphere, and even the sound of the ticking water and wind seemed to be much quieter.
In the midst of prayers, a golden gate of glory slowly opened on the altar, and the holy and majestic divine light bloomed in the cave.
The believers suddenly became excited, and the prayers in the cave became louder and louder.
In the kingdom of heaven.
Wu Hui personally guarded the gate of heaven, because of the large number of believers, he was now able to accumulate 1 point of divine power in just over four days, enough to open the gate of heaven.
He was looking forward to the huge benefits that this time would bring to him by spending about 0.3 divine power to open the Gate of Heaven once.
