Chapter 202: The Parable I

Pyramid of the Sun

This is not the largest Pyramid of the Sun, but it is also architecturally magnificent and trapezoidal.

The tower is 50 meters high, there are 5 floors above the ground, the edge of the steps and up to the top of the tower is a sun temple, the tall sun god statue stands in the center of the altar, facing the east, dignified and serious, the chest wears countless gold and silver, the ornaments of precious stones, when the sun shines into the temple, the body shines with dazzling light, makes people awe-inspired.

Underneath the pyramid is an underground complex, a stone chamber of about 100 square meters, with a statue of a god in the center, surrounded by a motif of the sun god.

A priestess knelt on the ground, praying silently, speaking in a mysterious language.

While praying, suddenly, a voice sounded, which seemed to be thousands of souls crying together, and it seemed to be a sacred chant chanting in a low voice, and when this voice was generated, the statue of the god showed a golden light, brilliant and beautiful.

The priestess was shocked and overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt on the ground to greet the arrival of the sun god, and a moment later, the crystals in the eyes of the god appeared, and a golden red light appeared!

In an instant, a feeling of sacredness and majesty, blood and cruelty, emerged.

"O Tarberic, the Most High Sun Father, Thou art the Lord of the earth, and I meet thy will." The priestess fell to her knees and spoke.

The statue seemed to have come to life, standing majestically there, countless shadows floating, and if you debated it carefully, you could tell that it was a priest wearing a golden mask, waving a scepter on the altar, slaughtering prisoners of war and children, and performing a living sacrifice to the sun god, and countless unjust souls appeared on the corpse, and shouted.

"A sinner who has stolen the light of the sun has appeared in the world, and you will find him, kill him, and sacrifice him to me, and when it is done, I will give the greatest glory." The sun god Taberik muttered.

"Your will is my will." When the priestess heard this, she fell to the ground and said respectfully, correspondingly, there was also a faint light on her body, compared with God, it was a hazy light, faint, vague, but real.

The idol seemed to be very satisfied, and gradually, the brilliance faded, and it became an ordinary golden statue again.

The priestess waited a moment before she got up, and the myth was very vague, but very clearโ€”the one who stole the sun's rays.

After a moment of contemplation, she took out a golden scepter, which was carved with a glorious sun at the top, and a snake crawling underneath, which represented full of calamity, killing, and blood.

The whole Sun Scepter is very exquisitely crafted, this is the Scepter of the Sun Priestess.

"It's time to get out." The priestess murmured, her eyes looking joyful and sad.

When she went out with the scepter, and when she reached the door, a snake carved on the door woke up violently, and her eyes flashed red, staring at the priestess.

The priestess was not afraid at all, she took the scepter and said, "By the command of the Father Sun, I will bring glory to the earth." โ€

Suddenly, a golden light flashed from the golden scepter of the sun, and after receiving this golden light, the blood light of the snake's eyes, it disappeared, and then, the door opened silently.

Wrapped in silk robes, with a headdress inlaid with precious jewels, and white hands holding the golden scepter of the sun, she came to the corridor, which had countless reliefs of monsters, and woke up one by one, but saw the golden light, and shrank back.

It wasn't until she paused at the end of the corridor that she walked up, and the door opened silently, and then she went straight up the path inside the pyramid.

At this moment, a priest turned around and saw her, and he was immediately startled, and when he saw the golden scepter in her hand, he showed surprise again, and was stunned for a moment, and then knelt down.

The priestess ignored it and walked forward step by step until the platform at the top of the pyramid came out.

At this time, the sun was shining in the west, and she was holding a scepter and staring at the sun, her expression was very religious.

The hazy light on her body, when she met the sun, immediately echoed from afar, if Fang Xin was looking at it at this time, she would find that the sun's light slowly penetrated into her body like a mist.

There was already an alarm below, and the priest's footsteps were hurried, and a warrior, riding on horse, hurried towards one place, and a moment later an old man also rode forward, looked up, and hurried into the pyramid.

After a while, this old man appeared at the top of the pyramid.

The priestess was still on the high platform, the sun was shining, shining on the sun god and her body, and at the same time there was a faint golden light, full of mystery and majesty!

"Sun Virgin Tanir, why are you on earth now is not the time for the Great Sacrifice?" The old priest fixed his mind and questioned him.

Hearing this, she turned around, and in the reflection of the sun's rays, her body was inlaid with a layer of magnificent golden light, and she said in a calm, downward-looking voice: "By the command of the father sun, I will bring glory to the earth." โ€

As she spoke, she held up the golden scepter, which shone with a faint golden light, and she said in a loud voice to the dozen priests who followed her, "Do you still not bow in the presence of the father of the sun? โ€

Facing the Sun Scepter and the golden light above, all the priests hesitated for a moment, and then, someone knelt down, and the old man hesitated for a moment and knelt down as well.

Tanielle looked down at them, a feeling of happiness in her heart.

The so-called Sun Virgin is a solemn ritual that is held regularly every year to preside over the sacrifice to the gods, and each shrine has a Sun Virgin.

The Sun Virgin, in the Divine Law, is dedicated to the Sun God as a wife, so she must have a noble lineage, outstanding beauty, and a high degree of piety, as well as a very high quality.

In addition to beauty and piety, their lineage satisfies both nobility and quality, for they are all daughters of the sun god.

The kings of the city-states were said to be the descendants of the sun god, and they tried to combine with their own sisters, and if they had to, with their mothers or daughters, in order to maintain their lineage and strength, in short, their bloodlines were thus kept at the same concentration as the first generation, so they could be called sons and daughters of the sun god.

The Sun Virgin must be chosen from among the daughters of the Sun to become the wife of the Sun God.

The king possessed divinity and power to maintain the rule of the various city-states.

There are many of the above sun virgins, and the most important thing in the life of the sun virgins who have served the sun god for a long time is that they must always maintain their chastity to the sun god. Adultery is considered an unforgivable evil. The violator woman will be buried alive, the man will be hanged, and the nine clans will be connected by him. Even the villages where the Dharma was born had to be bulldozed and abandoned, and were considered cursed by the gods.

In order to ensure that the Virgins of the Sun are protected by absolute chastity, no one is entitled to pay homage to them, except for the king, queen, and their own children.

This is a sun virgin in the ordinary sense, but the real sun virgins, who must be pure-blooded and bring out their divinity through faith, so as to gain far more power than the priests, even more powerful than the ruling kings, these powerful and noble virgins, except for the annual great sacrifice, are not even allowed to leave the pyramid at will and appear in the sun.

But once they come out, they are also very noble, and have the right to rule over the priests, parallel to the status of the high priest, and may even slightly exceed it.

Greedily absorbing the sunshine and enriching their bodies, the opportunity once a year is too few for them, and they can really live in the sun, which is what they want.

After a moment, her golden eyes lit up, and she said in a deep voice, "The metaphor has been issued, and in order to fulfill the metaphor, the Templar warriors have been dispatched by me." โ€

As soon as these words came out, all the priests suddenly changed color, and they all looked at the high priest.

The creation of the Templars was extremely terrifying and powerful.

First of all, a three-year-old boy must be taken and locked up in a secret chamber under the pyramid, and for three days he will be given no food but water to drink, so that they will be cleaned of the contents of their stomachs, and then washed to signify a clean offering.

It is made by a real, divine virgin who has been inspired by the divine grace of the sun, prays before the god and then pierces the child's left and right temples with two golden needles.

If the Sun Maiden does not master the technique well, she will definitely die on the spot, which is naturally a sacrifice of the Sun God.

Even if there is no gap in the skills mastered by the Sun Maiden, life and death are half and half, so it is regarded as a choice of the gods by believers, but as long as he does not die, this child will inspire some special powers.

This is the temple warriors, they are not only physically strong, but also have a lot of special powers, they are one of the foundations of the temple to maintain divine power, most of them are commanded by the high priest.

The high priest looked up, and the girl in front of him shone with a golden glow like the statue of the god, and he hesitated for a moment, knelt on the ground, and agreed.

Seeing that the high priest agreed, Taniel even felt a trace of regret, the previous life of captivity was carried out by this high priest on behalf of the divine will, it is impossible to say that there is no resentment, but this resentment cannot be vented against the sun god, only against the high priest - the unintelligent woman will die a long time ago, and it is the sun god who allows the hatred to be vented on the high priest.

Furthermore, it is in God's interest for the High Priest and the Sun Virgin to oppose each other as clergymen of equal status.

"It's really smart, it's a pity, otherwise, you can be killed by a myth." Tanielle thought, the murderous intent in her eyes fading.

And almost at the same time, the same scene appeared in almost any city.

The difference is only the fate of the high priest, in many cities, the head of the high priest rolls on the ground, blood is splashed, and he becomes the first victim of the myth, the sun virgin who killed him with his own hands, and can't help but vent his long laughter.

And in the city of Camiber, under the shade of a tree in the hotel, Fang Xin lay comfortably on a wicker chair.

The sunlight fell with photons of seven colors: red, orange, red, green, cyan, blue, and purple, Fang Xin was very cautious, he did not absorb it greatly to form force field fluctuations, he absorbed the sunlight that normally shone in the area, and filled the emptiness in his body.

The power of the sun was quickly absorbed, and Fang Xin obviously felt that the sun's brilliance was a little weak, and the arrangement of the particles was unkempt, but this did not have much effect on Fang Xin, and the energy was quickly condensed into white particles, and transformed into golden-colored blood.
