There is no such thing as a free lunch, let alone sharing the flesh and blood of God, how can it be as simple as imagined.

"This is my blood, my flesh, and I will share it with you as food", this is more than just words.

Although it is not a true holy word, once something related to the gods is said and the gods do not object, to a certain extent, it has been recognized by the laws of the world and has a symbolic meaning, so the sacrament at the festival really symbolizes the flesh and blood of the gods.

And believers who eat the sacrament are equivalent to eating the flesh and blood of the gods, and continue their lives by relying on the flesh and blood of the gods, then these believers will be with the gods as the prayer says.

If they continue to believe in the goddess of the Dark Moon in the future, then of course there will be no problem, even if their belief in the Dark Moon becomes weaker over time, it will not be affected in any way, the gods are loving, and they will not blame the believers for diluting their faith.

However, once these believers turn their backs on the Darkmoon's beliefs and stand in opposition to the Darkmoon, becoming a force against the Darkmoon, the role of the sacrament is manifested. Relying on the flesh and blood of the gods to continue life, but turning one's back on the gods, is blasphemy in the true sense of the word, and it is the most serious crime. It is not ordained by anyone, and there is no executor, but the laws of the world will judge it as blasphemy, and the power of the law will bring down divine punishment.

This so-called divine punishment does not rely on violence to punish someone, but that a person who turns his back on the gods will be rejected by the laws of the world, and everything in the world will become his enemy. In layman's terms, he will become very, very unlucky, going out to be hit by a carriage, coming home to be bitten by a dog, and going up and down the stairs may break his leg.

The vast majority of people don't understand why they suddenly become so unlucky, and usually attribute it to the reason for betraying the faith, so there are many rumors that you can't betray the faith, otherwise fate will not favor you, and I'm afraid they will never know, the key is not to betray the faith, but to just a few words of prayer.

Shur knew that in the future, with the increase of believers, there would definitely be some cases of abandonment of the faith for various reasons, which was understandable, but absolutely intolerable, so he set such a tacit trap among the clergy, trying to nip the betrayal in the bud.

"Thank the Lord for giving us food and accepting His flesh and blood, and we will remain faithful forever. After making sure that every believer had eaten the food, the girl ate her own portion, the corners of her mouth slightly curled, and the last prayer was read with great joy.

In fact, she didn't know how to do this, but after Shur explained, she became the staunchest supporter, and even more attentive than Shur herself, she had to watch the believers receive the sacrament and establish a symbolic connection with the goddess before she could rest assured.

"Eh, aren't you going to eat?"

The small door that Tallinna and Meria had just walked out of was gently shut, and Shul did not participate in the ceremony, but hid here to observe. Unlike the clergy of the bishop's line, Shure, as a battle priest, has no hard and fast rules on whether to participate in similar ceremonies, although most of the church's priests and guards are used to participating, but in fact, they can participate or not, and Shur has the identity of the gold devouring beast in the capital of roses, and he is unwilling and really not suitable to come forward on such a solemn occasion, so he simply hid on the sidelines and watched, but when he turned around, he saw that Moria had run in at some point.

"Huh. Shul shook his head with a smile and did not answer the question.

Like Lisa, it is just to set an example for the believers, and it doesn't make sense for the priesthood to eat or not.

As a priest, there is no need to eat Holy Communion at all, and in fact, the oath of the soul of a priest is more effective than Holy Communion. From the moment a priest vows to serve the gods all his life, the fate of the priesthood has been closely linked to the gods, not only fate, but even the soul, unless other gods intervene, no priesthood will turn their backs on their faith, there will be no future.

"Why are you here?" "Although Moria, although she is keen to make trouble, she has a good grasp of proportion, and she will never do anything out of place on such a crucial occasion (Odin: ??), not to mention the opportunity of the Darkmoon cultist, it is not convenient for her as the heir of Lord Anika to appear, according to the previously agreed plan, she will not participate at all today, so Shure wonders why she suddenly appeared here.

"Sasa had to take care of the school and kicked me out. Lin Jing pursed his lips aggrievedly, as the reputation of the Dark Moon Church spreads widely, the school jointly established by the two sides has also ushered in a wave of new students, in the past month, Saf has been so busy that she almost doesn't even have time to eat, and Moria actually wants to make trouble for her, no wonder she will be blown away. However, Moria's grievance lasted less than three seconds, and she was attracted by the prayer meeting outside, so she simply lay down beside Shure and looked along the crack in the door with him, "Lisa is doing a good job, she already looks like a qualified priest." ”

That's right, Lisa did a perfect job, the whole prayer meeting, from beginning to end, impeccable, Shure believes, even the goddess who has been secretly peeping is quite satisfied, that's right, with the stone just smashed on her head as a witness, she must have been peeping, this prayer meeting is a sacrifice that all the priests have spent years of energy to finally offer, no matter how indifferent she is, no matter how much she doesn't care, it is impossible to ignore it.

"In the name of the Lord, grant you blessings, praise the Merciful Lord, praise the moon without light, holy. Lisa raised her hand, and a dim holy light was sprinkled on the hall, and dusty points of light were sprinkled on the devotees, so that their bodies quickly rejuvenated after a day's hard work, "This is the end of today's prayer meeting, children of the Lord, in the future life, please always remember the teachings of the Goddess, and remember that the Lord is with us." ”

"The Lord is with me. Under the rendering of the atmosphere, the believers around the icon seemed to have entered a state of spiritual resonance, no one organized, but the voices of the believers were unexpectedly neat, "Holy." ”

"Perfect. Shul took a few steps back to the door of Ai, let out a long breath, as if he had unloaded the heaviest burden in his heart, and when he turned to face Moria, even the smile on his face was different from usual, "So, besides boredom, there is something else." ”

"Looks like you're finally at ease. Moria tilted her head, smiling innocently and brightly, but the words she said were creepy, "Can you die with peace of mind?"

"yes. Shul was very calm, and looked at Moriah with a calm smile, "You can die with confidence." ”

"That's good. Lin Jing nodded, "Everyone is gathered tonight." ”

"Huh?"

"Mia and I gathered it. Lin Jing said as a matter of course, "It's been an old friend for so long, since I can't accompany you, I should send you away." ”

"Huh...... Such...... It's good. ”
