The metal openwork window frames still smell of fresh paint, the sunlight filters through the multicolored glass, reflecting carved shadows on the floor, the new serpit table is covered with fuchsia flannel, and the two brass candlesticks are full of thick white candles spitting flames. On both sides of the pulpit, the smoke from the incense burner rose curly, and the faint aroma of lavender spread throughout the room with the spread of smoke, making everyone who smelled it feel the peace of mind. The faint sound of the chant, echoing repeatedly in the room, could not find the person singing, and the singing seemed to appear in the room out of thin air, perhaps from a distant kingdom of God.

This is the prayer hall of the Temple of the Dark Moon, the most important of the grounds open to the public.

Now almost everything in this is new, except for the statue of the goddess in the middle of the prayer area, the furnishings, decorations, furniture, and even the building itself are almost all brand new, all the items are not luxurious and expensive, unlike many large churches that want to use luxurious decoration to show their economic strength, from another point of view to enhance the faith of the believers, the Temple of the Dark Moon does not need to do this, at least not yet, simplicity and solemnity are one of the characteristics of the goddess, and it is best for the church to maintain its current state.

The prayer area was empty, and there were no believers listening to the sermons on the new benches in the evangelistic area. The prayer hall was quiet, quiet and could be heard clearly, and the noise of children came from afar.

The prayer hall is the first area after entering the sanctuary, as soon as you enter the gate of the temple, you will directly enter the prayer hall, only after passing through the prayer hall and walking out from the back, you can really enter the Dark Moon Temple, and at this time you are in the outer courtyard of the dark moon, a square square with a man-made fountain in the middle.

Over the past few hundred years, the man-made fountain has ceased work until it has recently been renovated and restored to its documented appearance.

In the middle is a clear pool, and a column of water shoots straight up from the center of the pool, sprays to the highest point, and then spreads out in all directions, turning into a thin mist that moistens the surrounding environment. At the top of the highest point of the water column, a dark red stone ball, symbolizing the moonless moon, is suspended in the air in a posture that defies physics, slowly rotating with the eruption of the spring.

Pilgrims to the temple, after having prayed in front of the icon and listened to the sermon of the priest, can enter this place, sit around the fountain, meditate, meditate, rest, even if it is just to sit down and have lunch, this is the edge of the sanctuary, the place where mortals are closest to the gods.

According to the normal design, there are a large number of functional buildings open to the outside world around the outer courtyard square, such as the confessional hall, the healing hall, the library, and the magic hall, just like the churches of other main gods, which are very functional. Of course, given the state of the church now, well, the economic situation and the manpower situation, there are not many buildings that have been restored to use, and, moreover, a little bit more than that.

Originally, the east side of the outer courtyard was a training ground for the temple guards to use for their daily self-training, and of course, it was also a welfare facility for the warriors who believed in the goddess, and the warrior believers who were not temple guards could also freely use all the facilities in the training ground, and if they wished, they could also practice hard with the temple guards under the guidance of professionals.

Over the past few hundred years, it has been turned into an open-air warehouse with piles of debris, and now the debris has been emptied, but the area of the training ground has been reduced by half.

On the other side, there are several three-storey houses, the houses are square and not beautiful at all, including the training ground, and the outside is also surrounded by a fence, only one gate can enter and exit, as if it has become a closed area in the temple, not only that, the gate made of metal fence is tightly closed, and in a simple room behind the door, there is an old man who is half asleep and napping, but if you want to go in, unless you jump over the wall, it is difficult to hide from the janitor's sight.

The sound of children frolicking came from several buildings inside the gate, and it could be heard that the number of children was not large, but it was obviously in a good mood, after all, if you can laugh so happily, your mood will definitely not be bad.

There is no doubt that this is the new school that Saph and the Darkmoon Church have teamed up to build, the Church's blood-making machine that Shure has always dreamed of.

Look at the time, it is around lunch time, the children should be taking a lunch break, no wonder it is noisy inside, and from time to time I see a few short figures chasing each other and running between several buildings, listening to the pure laughter inside that has not yet had time to be polluted by the world, the corners of Shuer's mouth are also upturned, as if remembering his childhood.

Well, if it is a childhood to wander in intrigue and calculation.

Signaling to the gatekeeper, seeing the uniform holy robes on these people, plus he was also a resident of the surrounding area, he had seen Lisa and Shuer, and knew that these two people could be regarded as half of his employers, the old man who guarded the door naturally did not dare to slack off, and limped out to open the fence gate for the group. The old man was also a low-level mercenary, until he lost a leg in an adventure, and he had to give up the adventure and return to his hometown to live a desolate life. Now that he finally has a quiet and well-paid job, he doesn't want to lose it, so he is very careful.

After calming the worried janitor, let him continue to guard the door with peace of mind, Shul and Lisa were followed by three other people, five people walked into the school together, Eddie and Susan have not been back recently, it is the first time to see the school that has begun to operate, looking around and feeling that everything is new, there is a kind of eagerness to try school life immediately, which makes Shul always want to look at them with pity, poor children, you will not think like this in a few days, tsk, good luck to you.

On one side of the school are several three-storey houses, on the other hand, is the original training ground, it seems that Safu is still looking at the long term, not satisfied with just running a small-scale basic education institution, since so many classrooms have been prepared, and the training ground has also been prepared, it is obviously intended to make the school a comprehensive teaching institution for ordinary people and war reserves at the same time, there are not many such schools, that is, only the kings of several large human countries, worthy of being a top scholar from Lion City, and his vision is different from ordinary people.

Of course, that's for the future, it's still a small school with a sparse number of students, and listening to the noise of the children, it is estimated that the number of students is about 20, and it seems that there is still a long way to go.

"Brother, look. Lisa pointed to a corner of the school building, and followed her sister's finger to see several small figures in black robes stand out, no doubt the other four children living in the temple, first come, first served, they naturally became the first students of the school and began to receive a well-rounded education.

Now, the four of them were accompanied by a few students of the same age, and under the leadership of the four of them, a group of people gathered together, clasped their hands in front of their chests, and prayed in the direction of the holy statue in a decent way, until the prayer was over, and several people found a place to sit down, and each took out his lunch to eat.

"Heh......" Shul and Lisa looked at each other and smiled, the effect was better than expected, the children are like a blank sheet of paper, as long as someone takes the lead, it is easy to cultivate the most devout believers, one session at a time, as long as Saf's school is maintained, then the middle end of the believers will never be cut off.

"Ah, Lord Priest. As soon as I walked to the door of a building, a woman ran out of it, almost hit it head-on, saw the person in front of her, and the woman who ran out of the teaching building smiled awkwardly and said apologetically, "I'm really sorry, I was too anxious to walk and didn't see you, when did you come back?"

"Linda?" Shul looked up and down at the woman she had accidentally saved on the way out, now she was no longer dressed as a small businessman, and she couldn't see the panic and confusion on her face, she had a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on her face, and she had also changed into a black women's robe, not the robes of the Darkmoon Temple, but black, like a combination of the Darkmoon robes and the scholar's clothes that the members of the Temple of Knowledge liked to wear. Changing this outfit made Linda's body a little more intellectual, "Hehe, yes, very good, is this job quite satisfying?"

"Well, thank you, Priest. Linda smiled embarrassedly, she wouldn't say that when she first arrived at the Dark Moon Temple, she was disappointed when she saw the ruins in front of her, but fortunately she was calm enough at the time, and she planned to wait and see for a while, and she didn't do anything wrong rashly, otherwise she would definitely regret it.

"Where are you going in such a hurry?"

"Well, Lord Priest, two children are fighting, I'll rush over and take a look. Linda smiled wryly and said, "The vitality of those little ones is so terrible, they have to make a little mess every day." ”

"Hahaha, it fits my image very well. Shul patted Linda on the shoulder, "What are you responsible for now?"

"I'm the provost of the school and basically ...... It's just a little bit of everything. Linda said with distress, "Fortunately, the operation of the school is gradually becoming normal, otherwise I would really be a little unable to hold on." ”

"Well, it's just working properly. Shul nodded, "Where's Saf?

"Acting Headmaster? yes, she's inside, do you want me to let her know?"

"Hmm, Acting Headmaster?" Shulben stopped as he wanted to walk inside, and raised an eyebrow, "What's going on, isn't she the Headmaster?"

"The headmaster said that she was spreading knowledge on behalf of the master of knowledge, so the master of knowledge was the headmaster. Linda shrugged, obviously helpless about it, "There's no way to do it, I can't persuade if I want to." ”

"Okay. Knowing that he was worried in vain, Xiuer couldn't help but roll his eyes, "You go and get busy, I'll just go find her myself." ”
