Chapter 10: The Church of the Dawn
Early the next morning, Murphy went to Sayles' room and sat down with Sayles. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Sayles, I have a question for you. β
"You probably want to ask me how I hurt you, right? Sayles said calmly.
"Talking to smart people is effortless, according to the strength of my body as a dusk warrior, your dagger is just an ordinary dagger, and it is only the palm of your hand, according to reason, it is impossible for you to hurt me. Last night, I thought carefully about the details of the time when you were injured, and found that the moment you spit out the dagger with the palm of your hand, you made two very, very small sounds. The first is the sound of bone cracking, and the second is the sound of metal vibrations at a very high frequency. So I'm guessing it's a very unique power technique, but your physical strength is nowhere near the minimum required for power development. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have suffered more than just a little skin injury. Murphy said.
Sayles glanced at Murphy in surprise and said, "Sure enough, every Dusk Warrior is not simple, and the Second Elder really lives up to his reputation. As you can imagine, this is indeed a special power technique, but it is very taxing on the body. Some time ago, the injury I suffered was caused by the connection technique. As he spoke, Sayles showed Murphy his gauze-wrapped hand.
Murphy said: "Sure enough, this can already be regarded as a secret skill, although the requirements for physical strength are relatively high, but for the increase in the power of martial arts, it can even be compared to some secret skills at the level of a dusk warrior." β
How did Murphy know that the so-called secret technique that was comparable to the secret technique of the Dusk Warrior level in his mouth, Sails was just getting started, and due to the strength of his body, he couldn't play his true level at all.
Sails didn't break it, and nodded in response: "I haven't seen the secret technique of the Dusk Warrior level, so I can't compare it." But the second elder said that if this is the case, it should be no worse. β
Murphy said, "How did you get this secret skill, I'm curious. β
Sayles said that he finally got to the point, took out the non-gold, non-stone and non-wood sign from his arms, handed it to Murphy, and said: "I inadvertently realized from this brand, this brand was accidentally obtained when I was more than ten years old, just ask the second elder to help distinguish one or two, and see what the origin of this brand is." β
Murphy picked up the sign and looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see any clues, and thought: "Isn't this Sails afraid that I will kill it after I get the secret technique, and follow in the footsteps of its mercenary group?" Hmph, if it weren't for the sake of obtaining this secret skill, how could you have allowed you to live until now. β
Although Murphy hated it in his heart, he quietly returned the sign to Sayles, and said: "It seems that I am still inexperienced, and I can't tell the origin of this brand, but since you can get a secret skill from it, I believe that this brand is by no means an ordinary thing, keep it properly, and when we return to the church headquarters, the Great Elder and the Pope will be able to recognize where this thing is sacred." β
Disappointed, Sayles put the sign back in his arms and got up to see off the second elder Murphy. Sayles was indeed very disappointed, and no one knew the weirdness of the sign better than he did. The reason why he gave the brand to Murphy without hesitation was that Sayles had deep consideration.
In last night's situation, Sayles originally had the consciousness of death, after all, the difference in strength was too great. But Murphy's actions gave Sayles a glimmer of hope for revenge. Sayles understands that with Murphy's demonic experience as a genius, he must be the character of no one in his eyes, the boss and the second one, how can he go to great lengths to invite a so-called "manufacturable material". And the only thing that is worth the trouble is that secret skill. In other words, as long as he doesn't learn that secret technique for a day, he is safe. On the other hand, once Murphy learns the "Vibration Technique", or loses patience with himself, it is his own death.
Originally, according to Sayles's assumption, after the second elder Murphy took over the brand, he would definitely be able to find something from the pattern of the brand. And Murphy, who doesn't know the mystery, will definitely be deeply attracted by the veins, causing things to forget and comprehend. If things went more smoothly, Murphy learned the Vibration Secret Technique from the veins and used it to test it. Although Murphy is a dusk warrior, his physical strength is far stronger than that of Sayles, but Sails found from the dagger turned into powder that the side effects of the shock secret technique are not something that can be withstood by simply increasing the strength of the body, and the dagger itself is the best proof of it. You know, even if it is an ordinary dagger, it is a metal product, and its strength is far greater than the strength of the human body. Therefore, if Murphy really succeeds in experimenting with the Shock Secret Technique, then what awaits him will definitely be the same as what happened to Sayles, with bones shattered all over his body. What can a Twilight Warrior do with shattered bones and strained muscles? The obvious answer is, of course, to be a paralyzed Twilight Warrior. Even with the bravery of the Twilight Warriors, there will be no one in ten in battle, and Sayles can still find an opportunity to avenge the members of the mercenary group. In this case, the paralyzed Murphy becomes a fish on Sayles' chopping board, to be slaughtered.
Who would have thought that he would be a tempered person who broke the brand so quickly, and he still looked at his face if he didn't teach secret skills, which made Sayles depressed.
But on second thought, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. After all, in the entire Max Continent, there are a number of characters at the level of Dusk Warriors, and almost everyone is a genius-like figure, who knows what hole cards Murphy will have. After all, a Title Warrior below the rank of Dusk Warrior can already obtain the title of nobility in each kingdom as the kingdom's combat power reserve.
According to the information known to Sayles, the Church of Dawn is classified as a cult by all the kingdoms on the continent of Max. As for the reason listed as a cult, we have to mention the historical development and teachings of the Dawning Church.
Before the Megalithic Calendar, the Dawning Church spread all over the Max Continent, and the teachings were to spread the seeds of love, courtesy, and integrity, eliminate disputes, and finally achieve harmony between all races and people on the Max Continent. After the start of the third extraterritorial invasion war, the war between the Max Continent and the extraterritorial race, the orcs, fell to a disadvantage for a while. On the one hand, the Church of Dawn believes that if the Church of Dawn joins the war, it is inconsistent with the Church's doctrine of achieving harmony between all races, and should be reformed and coordinated to achieve a truce between the two sides of the war, and then live in harmony; In the end, the main battle faction won, and the Church of Dawn officially entered the war.
The restoration technique of the Church of Dawn played a decisive role in the process of the war, as long as the side did not receive fatal injuries, or severed hands and feet, the wounded could heal as quickly as possible, and participate in the battle again, completely turning the tide of the battle between the two sides, and finally the resistance army of the Max continent was victorious, which led to the enslavement of the orc race for more than 200 years. Originally, after this war against the orcs, the position of the Dawning Church on the Max continent should be more stable, but the Dawning Church suddenly announced the establishment of the Pope and the Holy See, which were automatically promoted by the Great Elder of the Church, and the Elder Body of the Dawning Church was in charge of the Holy See and managed the daily affairs of the Church. After hearing the news, the countries of the mainland believed that the church had just changed its name and added a new position, and did not pay attention to it.
Since then, the Church of Dawn has been preaching around the continent of Max that the continent of Max is about to usher in the Last Judgment, when all races on the Max continent will be completely wiped out, and only by joining the Church of Dawn can you get the forgiveness of the Last Judgment. At the same time, the Dawning Church frequently launched coups d'Γ©tat in major kingdoms, subverting nearly 100 small kingdoms, and even the Legtimis Dynasty, known as the "Ten Thousand Years Dynasty", under the manipulation of the Dawning Church, there were three large-scale coups d'Γ©tat. At this point, the Church of Dawn has seriously touched the bottom line of the ruling class of the Max Continent, the aristocratic class. The nobles of the three largest countries on the continent of Max, the Legemis Dynasty, the Ode Kingdom, and the Willant Kingdom finally decided to list the Dawning Church as a "cult" and exterminate the Dawning Church. In the end, after more than ten years of competition, the aristocratic group won a complete victory, and the Dawning Church turned from light to dark, lurking in all corners of the Max Continent, looking for an opportunity to subvert the continent.
For 800 years, the Church of Dawn has not made big moves, and small moves have continued, constantly subverting the small countries on the Max continent. In the beginning, whenever the Three Kingdoms found any trace of the Church of the Dawn, they immediately cracked down on it.
However, the Three Kingdoms found that every time the Church of Dawn subverted the regimes of those small kingdoms, they could completely annex the territory of the small kingdoms by destroying them themselves. Including the original Van Delei Kingdom, after the eradication of the Holy Dawn Holy See, the three kingdoms did not help its exiled government to restore the country, and after a series of interest exchanges, the territory of the original Van Delei Kingdom was completely divided between the Ode Kingdom and the Willant Kingdom.
Therefore, the three kingdoms have adopted a policy of turning a blind eye to the small actions of the Dawning Church, and you plant trees and I pick the fruits. But all countries have maintained a trace of vigilance, that is, you can make any trouble and noise in the Dawn Church, but as long as you dare to put your claws into my range, it will directly chop your flesh hurt.
Slowly, the Dawning Church also discovered the problem. Although many coups were successful, it was the great nobles represented by the three kingdoms who ultimately benefited. Since then, the Dawning Church has disappeared from the vision of the various clans in the Max Continent, silently accumulating its strength.
