Chapter 153: Groundless

St. Loren's Cathedral, one of the 24 most important basilicas of the Church of Radiance, was built in the early dawn of the Dawn and is said to have been built by the hands of the first generation of the "Holy Walkers" St. Loren.

Legend has it that on the day of the completion of the Basilica of Saint-Loren, thousands of loud celestial horns sounded in the sky, the gate of heaven was opened, white holy light fell from the sky, and the seraphim holding a vase walked out of the gate of heaven, swaying a colorful rain of flowers, sending the divine blessing of heaven to the cathedral of Saint-Loren.

The legend is no longer visible, but anyone who sees the Cathedral of Saint-Loren will be amazed by its majesty and splendor. The entire cathedral is made of white marble, and the 24 majestic pillars support the towering ceiling of the church like pillars to the sky, and on each huge pillar base is carved a statue of a holy angel, and on the pillars depict the glorious faithful under the guidance of saints and angels in the great battle to defeat evil.

Although it was already night, the Cathedral of Saint-Loren was brightly lit and brilliant. There is a tower more than ten meters high above the ceiling of the cathedral front, and at the top of the tower is not only a huge clock used to tell the time, but also a statue of a holy angel holding a torch, and the soft light emitted from the wings behind the angel is enveloping the entire cathedral, making him the brightest and most brilliant place of light in this night.

The carriage, full of jealousy and resentment, soon came to the outside of the Cathedral of Saint-Loren, and as soon as the carriage came to a stop, he could not wait to jump out of the carriage and rush to the Cathedral of Saint-Loren.

"Stop, whoever!"

On the more than 20 marble steps in front of St. Loren's Cathedral, two guards wearing silver-white bright crosses and standing still like sculptures saw someone approaching, and immediately put their hands on the hilt of their swords and shouted vigilantly.

"I am Cathy of House Seth, a devout disciple of the Lord!"

The jealous young man raised his hands and hurriedly shouted, "I want to report, I want to report a heresy, a Pantheon heresy who believes in evil false gods!"

"Reporting heresy?"

The guard's right hand rested on the hilt of the sword, and he did not give up his vigilance, but while signaling the young man to stop, he said coldly: "Stand in front of the first step, don't move, don't move forward, wait!"

Despite being licked by the fire of jealousy, the young man tried to suppress his resentment and waited patiently at the foot of the steps.

One of the guards quickly turned around and walked into the door of the church to report to the pastor on duty tonight. After a while, he walked out with a young man dressed in a black probationary priest's robe.

The young man had blonde hair, was emaciated, and his face was fairly handsome, except for his long hooked nose and slightly sunken eye sockets, which made him look a little gloomy.

"You're going to report heresy?"

The young priest glanced at the whistleblower casually, and said a little impatiently: "Tell me, who are you going to report?

The jealous whistleblower couldn't help but bow his head deeply, and his eyes were suppressed with deep jealousy and resentment - this young priest, younger than him, but already dressed in the black robe of a probationary priest, was still working in the cathedral of St. Loren, and it was obvious that the future was at least a noble parish priest, and the future was bright, and the guy who was born with such a golden key was even more jealous than the hateful Carl Rolland.

However, although he harbored deep jealousy and resentment in his heart, his voice became more and more humble: "My lord, I want to denounce a heresy who believes in the Old Gods, a heresy who preaches the evil Old Gods and beliefs, and I suspect that he is the secret apostle of the Pantheon......"

"Pantheon?"

Hearing the heresy of the Pantheon, the young priest finally perked up, put away his impatient expression, leaned forward slightly, and asked a little seriously, "Tell me more about it?"

The Pantheon, that is the current Radiant Church's greatest enemy in the realm of faith, and in the minds of many Radiant Church priests, they are even more dangerous than the Arcane Federation. After all, the unruly magician simply does not believe in God, and although he belongs to the category of lost lambs who can be redeemed, the apostles of the Pantheon are sworn enemies of their peers who compete for business with the Church of Radiance.

Originally, after the Dawning War, most of the beliefs of the ancient gods collapsed with the collapse of the ancient Lotta Empire, and in the process of the Church of Radiance sweeping across the continent, it not only expelled the power of magicians, but also excluded all the beliefs of the ancient gods as false gods and evil gods, and carried out crazy suppression and exclusion.

Originally, because of the strength of the Radiant Church, the beliefs of those ancient gods and old gods have gradually declined on the mainland, but since the "Dark Sage" Klein created paternalism, unified all the beliefs of the gods rejected by the Radiant Church in the mainland under a framework, and created the "Pantheon" with unparalleled genius wisdom, which suddenly rejuvenated these ancient beliefs with unprecedented vitality, and competed with the Radiant Church for believers' faith resources in all fields.

Now within the church, the merit of capturing the apostle of the Pantheon is far higher than capturing a dangerous magician.

Seeing the priest's concerned expression, the whistleblower couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and hurriedly made a more sincere and respectful gesture and said: "My lord, I know a man named Carl Rolland, who wrote an epic called Roman, in which he praised the gods of Gulotta, and proclaimed the power and glory of these false gods, and was an apostle of the pantheon with a deep ......."

The whistleblower spoke hard, constantly adding fuel and vinegar to the content of the poems he remembered, trying to prove that the created Carl was a sinister follower of the Old Gods, an apostle of the Pantheon who secretly spread the beliefs of the Old Gods, and an evil heretic who was to be burned at the stake.

"That's all?"

The young pastor couldn't help but frown, slightly disappointed. He is not a fool, and of course he can see the mind of this whistleblower. It's nothing more than an incompetent person who is jealous of the talent of a rising colleague, so he tries to find some forbidden content, trying to use the power of the church to obliterate his opponent.

This kind of thing has happened countless times in the history of the Radiant Church, because it is all too common in the dark millennium that poets who have been reported or discovered, who show a little dissatisfaction with the Lord and the church and praise the heretical gods in their poems, as heretics and magicians are burned at the stake together.
