Chapter 43: Pompeii

After resting for the night, Ao Xingfeng and the others embarked on the journey again, and after almost a whole day of trekking, they finally came to the city gate standing on the prairie, and there were many convoys lined up to pass the inspection of the guards. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Holy Envoy, let's go this way. Orton walked around the line and took the lead.

Walking up to the guard, Orton took out an iron plate and handed it to the guard.

"Okay, you can go in. The two guards looked at the iron plate carefully, then handed it back and moved out of the way.

Pompeii is very large, almost three times the size of Finney, but it is not the center of the province, it is just a border city, and as soon as you enter the city, you can hear a very lively sound, but Ao Xingfeng can't understand a word.

The streets are lined with stalls, many of which place all sorts of merchandise, some of which are strange things that adventurers have brought out of danger, and the streets are crowded with people shouting and shouting, carrying their wares in their hands, but passers-by rarely stop, except for some newcomers who have just started to travel and look for treasure in the stalls, others choose to ignore the shoddy products of this group of black-hearted merchants and the junk things touted by the black-hearted adventurers.

"Looks like I'm going to have to learn the lingua franca. Ao Xingfeng followed behind Orton and said.

"Don't be so troublesome, your lord, for we will get to the church in Pompeii in a moment, and I will let the missionaries enlighten you. Orton looked back and smiled.

"What does that mean?" asked Ao Xingfeng, as the surrounding passers-by made way for the Templars so that Ao Xingfeng and his party did not suffer from crowds.

"A kind of divine art, quickly instilling the knowledge of the missionary in you, it is really enviable, the holy envoy is the holy envoy, generally speaking, knowledge enlightenment costs one or two hundred gold coins to enjoy, and you can get it for free just by relying on your identity. Diamas explained, his face full of jealousy.

"Hahaha, I see, I'm really worried that it won't take a lot of time to learn the lingua franca. Ao Xingfeng said with a smile.

"Back then, it took me five years to learn the languages of three countries and a lingua franca. It's really infuriating to be more human. Diamas said resentfully.

After walking for about thirty minutes on the main street of Pompeii, and the surrounding passers-by gradually became scarce, Ao Xingfeng and his party arrived at the church district of Pompeii, where the monks wore brown robes everywhere, and greeted the Templars with a smile on their faces.

In front of Ao Xingfeng is a huge church, the architectural style of the church is similar to the Gothic architecture on earth, this church is already so large that the level of the church is so large, the hall can accommodate 1,700 people and does not seem crowded, and there are several huge Roman columns standing around the inner hall.

After entering this church, you can see the huge old baroque organ in the distance, the two priests are playing the sacred melody together, the church is not loud, the quiet parishioners and priests around sit on the benches to enjoy the inner peace, the melody played by the organ renders the whole atmosphere more sacred and solemn.

"Knight Orton, this is the Holy Envoy, please follow me. A priest walked up to Orton, whispered a few words, and then led the group down the aisle at the side of the church.

After walking through the hall to the work area of the church, many priests sat on the edge of the desk and wrote carefully.

A priest dressed in a different way walked over, about 30~40 years old, with a kind face and a friendly attitude, and asked with suppressed excitement, "Knight Orton, this is the legendary Holy Envoy, right?"

"That's right, we're afraid we'll have to stay here for a while before we wait for the knight's order to keep the Holy Envoy safe. Orton said solemnly.

"Of course, you can stay here for as long as you want, and I've arranged a place for you to stay. The pastor said excitedly.

"Until then, I would like to ask you to enlighten the Holy Envoy with knowledge. Orton said.

"Okay, follow me. The pastor glanced at Ao Xingfeng, walked ahead and led the group out of the work area, through the hall to the east altar, and whispered a few words to several priests who were praying.

Orton walked up to Ao Xingfeng and said, "Lord Holy Envoy, please stand in the center of the altar, and the priests will perform a ceremony of enlightenment for you. ”

Ao Xingfeng walked slowly, and walked to the center of the altar is a circular platform, flowing water surrounds the round platform, and in front of it is a statue of a goddess, and the priests are gathered around Ao Xingfeng, with their hands clasped together on their chests, and their mouths are chanting very jerky and incomprehensible incantations.

After a while, the statue of the goddess of the altar emitted a faint light, and a pillar of light shrouded Ao Xingfeng above the roof, and all kinds of knowledge entered Ao Xingfeng's brain in an orderly manner, Ao Xingfeng closed his eyes and enjoyed the knowledge that appeared in his mind out of thin air, even if the amount of knowledge was very huge, he entered very quickly, but Ao Xingfeng did not have the slightest sense of pain, this is the knowledge enlightenment of professionals, if it is handed over to some amateurs to do knowledge enlightenment, not only the knowledge obtained is messy, but also has a great impact on the recipient, at least a headache for a week, and at worst it directly becomes brain damage。

The Templars waited patiently for the ritual to take place, Diamas was very interested in watching the progress of knowledge enlightenment, as a poor man and a ranger under his status, he had only heard of the magical magic of knowledge enlightenment, and when he saw it with his own eyes, he was also very excited, and he was very curious about how much knowledge Ao Xingfeng could get after the ceremony.

The ceremony was long and boring, the priests were always chanting jerky and incomprehensible incantations, Ao Xingfeng was just standing motionless in the beam, and gradually Diamas felt a little impatient, the initial knowledge enlightenment technique was indeed very novel, the priests solemnly recited the incantations, the holy light shining from the roof, and the golden words floating in the air all made Diamas feel amazed, but the next two hours were the same picture, and people couldn't help but feel tired.

Finally, when Diamas was about to be unable to stand this torture, the knowledge enlightenment was over, the priests gasped as if they had just experienced a big war, and the clothes on their bodies were wet with sweat, but Ao Xingfeng felt reborn, three lingua franca plus the special words of the twelve countries, about the historical figures and events of the continent, as well as the geography of the continent and the ten wonders, information about Warcraft and aliens, spells of magic and the key points of spellcasting, etc.

Ao Xingfeng feels that it has never been so good, generally speaking, the knowledge enlightenment technique is performed by a priest, and a small amount of knowledge is selectively instilled according to the requirements of the recipient, and it also costs as much as one or two hundred gold coins, but the knowledge enlightenment technique received by Ao Xingfeng is different, it is jointly performed by several priests, which contains the knowledge that the priests who cast the spell have learned all their lives, of course, this does not include the life memories of the priests, just simple knowledge. Even the prince's relatives couldn't get such treatment, and Ao Xingfeng couldn't help but feel glad that he was a holy envoy.

In this way, he had to thank the soldier who slandered himself as a demon, otherwise Arthur would not have tested him with an idol, and then he would not have been able to acquire such a huge amount of knowledge so quickly, and he would not have been able to enjoy various privileges. If he opened his character panel now, he would be surprised that his intelligence had risen to a very terrifying number.

After gaining knowledge, Ao Xingfeng knew what kind of existence the holy envoy was, in short, just like a strategic nuclear weapon on the earth, his existence could deter all forces, once he used the power of the goddess in the holy land, he could easily destroy all the creatures within a radius of five hundred kilometers, of course, this is not unlimited, every time he activates the power of light, he needs to wait for half a year before he can release it again, but it is enough for such a powerful force to come once in half a year, otherwise the Irene Continent will already be in tatters in the hands of the previous few holy envoys。

"Holy Messenger, I am a priest of Pompeii, named Maids Marin, and it is my great honor to enlighten you. Pastor Marin said very excitedly in front of Ao Xingfeng.
