Chapter 35: The Praise of the Earth
For a moment, Lina, a priest girl with silver hair and black eyes, thought that she was almost omnipotent, and the moment she and the Sacred Land's Praise reached a perfect match, this feeling surged out of her heart irrepressibly.
Everyone who has seen Lina knows that this silver-haired girl who serves the gods will always carry a silver Dharma book by her side, as if the Dharma book is half of her body. The book is not thick, the thickness of the spine is only about one centimeter, the cover of the book is a metal shell forged with Mithril, and the silver Mithril cover is engraved with four sets of magic circles, making the whole book look full of divine feeling. Opening the cover of Mithril, there were pages of unknown texture resembling something resembling paper, which looked like paper, but neither tearing nor cutting, nor being burned or flooded, could not affect them in any way, and there were thirty-two pages in total, one of which were closed together. Thirty-two is the product of four and eight, four represents the four directions of the earth, east, south, north, west, and the same meaning is drawn on the chest when praying in the Cult of the Earth, and the number eight represents the eight stages of life conceived by the earth, which are conception, birth, growth, maturity, fruiting or production, aging, death, withering or decaying. These two figures, which were most important to the church of the goddess of the earth, Denia, are multiplied to the total number of pages, which is enough to prove the place that the book occupies in the church and even in the heart of the goddess. Each of the thirty-two pages contains a text or a picture, both in words and in pictures, expressing the praise and worship of the earth.
As early as the beginning of the Tertiary Period, some intelligent beings gathered together to establish the Church of the Earth Goddess in order to thank the earth for its selfless dedication and to thank the loving god Denya as the embodiment of the earth, and did their best to make this precious book to the goddess, and on every page of the book, the children's love and attachment to the earth mother were written. The goddess was very moved and accepted this local tribute. But it didn't take long for it to be given back to the church. The clergy of the church were at first horrified, thinking that the goddess did not like their gift and were angry, but after receiving the gift of the earth, the horror disappeared completely. Because they found that although the material was precious, it was just an ordinary book, but after passing through the hands of the goddess, it was returned with a holy weapon. From the cover to the content, every page. They have all been touched by the goddess herself, and every word and picture in the book carries the power of the goddess, almost omnipotent. Bursts of magic rippled from the books, representing the majesty of the loving god of the earth. As long as the earth still exists for a day, the Dharma Book cannot be destroyed, and no matter how strong the attack is, even if it can destroy the energy of the qiē. The blow will also turn into a soft breeze on the Dharma book, and it will not even be able to leave any wrinkles on the Dharma book. Because the Dharma Book is full of Denya's divine powers, and it is very powerful, it can only be used by devout believers who have been approved by Denya. And it doesn't matter if the book is lost, it will automatically return to the user, and if the user dies, it will automatically return to Denya's temple.
Because of these reasons. The Praise of the Earth soon became one of the most important relics of the Earth Cult, and was often only available to the Archbishop or the Archbishop's successor, of course. Eligibility is known only to a few people at the highest levels of the Church.
The power of the Praise of the Law Book is very strong, and there are three most basic functions, which can increase the power of the magic arts, and can also be used as a storage device to absorb and store a large amount of magic power, and induce it with a small consumption when needed, so as to continuously release high-consumable magic skills, and in critical moments, you can also use the Law Book as a defensive prop to defend against some small-scale high-power attacks.
If the user is strong enough, and the fit with the law book or the gods is also high enough, then you can use the advanced function of the law book, thirty-two pages, each of which actually contains a level of divine magic, the lower the ranking, the greater the consumption of the divine magic contained, and the stronger the effect, the use of these magic techniques does not even need to consume the user's magic and spiritual power, only a few words of prayer can be achieved. Of course, there are limits to this ability, although these magic techniques do not cause consumption to the user, but they will consume the energy of the magic book itself, and it takes a long time to absorb the power of the earth to recharge after consumption, even so, this function can be regarded as a terrible Cheng dù.
But this is only an advanced function, even if the high-level of the Earth Church, in terms of the previous users of the Dharma, few people will know that once the user and the Dharma Book reach a perfect fit at a certain moment, then the user can even directly bathe in the kindness of the gods through the Dharma Book, as if standing on the side of the gods, and even as if they have become the incarnation of the gods in the mortal world, and their gestures contain the power of the gods. Of course, this perfect fit can only appear instantaneously, and it is impossible for a mortal soul to maintain this state for a long time, but even if it is only for a moment at a time, it is enough, because in the next few minutes, even if it is out of this state, the user will still have a power far beyond his original strength. This is the true gift of Denia to her devout disciples, the earth is merciful and selfless, and the embodiment of the earth, Denia, the goddess of love, reciprocates with the same generosity and selflessness for the believers who believe in her, and is willing to share with the believers the majesty and power of the gods that belong to her.
Therefore, when Lina took over Catherine's remaining tasks and blocked Freya's path to the remaining swamp lurkers, the silver-haired girl who faced a real demigod-level demonic beast for the first time reached the peak state of all her spirit and will, and at the moment of reaching the peak, the girl's consciousness seemed to be withdrawn from her body, and she was observing the battlefield in a more advanced way, but she was able to control her body freely. This feeling is very strange, every grain of dust on the battlefield is clearly reflected in the girl's consciousness, and every possible action of the swamp lurker is depicted in the girl's eyes. Every moment, countless pieces of information entered the girl's mind, tens of millions of times more than the information obtained during the usual observation, and in just one second, the silver-haired girl felt as if her consciousness was about to burst.
Fortunately, in the next moment, the wonderful world in front of her was shattered, and the girl's consciousness returned to her body, and she once again used her eyes to observe the enemy in front of her. Although she was out of the state just now, and no one explained it to her, Lina naturally understood the reason for what happened just now, and that wonderful state seemed to be the posture of the gods looking down on the world. Of course, this didn't mean much to Lina, and it was impossible for her to become a god just by sharing the sight of the gods, but she still took a deep note of this special experience, or rather, it was difficult to forget it.
The second lurker who was rapidly moving its tentacles towards Freya suddenly stopped rushing forward, and even the tentacles stopped dancing, and at some point, the strong beast suddenly had an urge to flee from the depths of his heart, which was the instinctive urge of the sensitive beasts when they encountered an enemy that could never be defeated. In the perception of the demonic beast, what stood in front of it was no longer a prey the size of an insect, but a god full of majesty, and the majestic gaze of the gods made it freeze even its movements. However, after only a second, this illusion disappeared without a trace, and there was still a small bug in front of him, and the lurker did not wonder why he had such a ridiculous illusion in his pure consciousness, and once the illusion disappeared, he began to move forward again.
But unfortunately, it still had the illusion that what it was standing in front of it was no longer the original Legendary-level priest, but a strong man who had just passed a perfect fit and had the strength to be strong for a few minutes. Although the perfect fit will not allow Lina to touch the realm of demigods in advance, it can greatly increase her strength and make her stand on the top of the legendary strength.
"Order, slow. Lina held the Dharma Book in one hand, the Dharma Book floated on her flat palm, exuding a soft silver light, the light was rhythming with her heartbeat, and the girl's right hand moved forward slightly, as if she automatically understood this state, and no longer chanted prayers, but directly issued orders.
The swamp lurker's body shook, and the air around him became viscous, and it felt like he was back in a familiar swamp, surrounded by the mud that enveloped and guarded him. However, the mud gives it a completely different feeling, which only hinders its body, but does not support its body and allows it to move freely in the mud. It's obviously a familiar environment, but it will only hinder itself, this awkward feeling makes the lurker extremely anxious, waving his tentacles in vain, trying to break free from the surrounding block, but it is difficult to do it, after all, such an obstacle is not physical, it cannot be destroyed, and it can only be fought with greater strength, but the way the lurkers move dooms their center of gravity to be unstable, and they have to be very careful even when walking quickly, not to mention spending more strength to fight against sluggishness.
Moreover, the obstacle of materialization is imminent. Lina blinked, snorted softly, stretched out her right hand, and drew a circle in the air with her index finger, and shouted loudly: "Holy word, cage." ”
Even though this was Pannis's intrinsic mental realm, the power of the gods still came in, and a large number of stone pillars spawned out of thin air from below the ground at the will of the gods, intertwining into a sparse network of stone pillars, imprisoning the swamp lurkers in the center.
"The Word, the burial of the earth. The third order came, and countless fine sand rolled out of the ground, slapping on the imprisoned lurkers like sand waves, forming a conical sand dune tens of meters high, and thousands of tons of yellow sand buried the lurkers underneath. To be continued
