"Three hundred and forty-six sages?" Leo quickly recalled the information related to it in his mind after reading the contents of the book.

In the entire Poseidon mound, there is only one book that records the number three hundred and forty-six, and that is the Book of the Sacred Word of Tato Flan

The author of this book is one of the most famous saints of the Poseidon Church, and the most famous person in the history of world navigation in Velon, who is known to the world as the harbor builder.

He was born in the early days of the Great Voyage, was an ordinary seaman in Landauer, served in the French Navy when he was young, and then was shipwrecked at sea, rescued by pirates, and became a pirate again, and then rode a pirate ship to plunder all over the world, from an ordinary pirate sailor, gradually grew into a pirate captain.

At that time, the sea was full of legends, and Tato Flann's reputation was nothing to these legends, at best a pirate leader of some modest prestige, and his prestige was entirely due to his luck.

Compared to other pirates, Tato Flan was always able to encounter some merchant ships that were not stronger than himself, but were valuable, so his pirate ships were always able to gain great benefits at a very small cost of casualties, so there are also speculations that Tato Flan may have accumulated a lot of wealth on hand.

Just when everyone began to focus on Tato Flann's wealth, Tato Flan made a very surprising move, he donated all his looted wealth to the Poseidon Church, and he was also baptized by the church and became a clergyman.

Having lost his fortune, he lost his value in the spotlight, and for the next few years he did some of the necessary clergy in the Church, and just when everyone thought that he would become a clergyman of a branch of the Poseidon Church, he sailed his pirate ship out to sea and completed a voyage around the world, becoming the seventh man to accomplish this feat.

And he sailed the most miles around the world, because he sailed close to the edge of the three continents, that is to say, he went to all the coastlines that humans could reach on the three continents.

After he returned to Landauer after his voyage around the world, he spent a lot of money on the same article in the newspapers with the largest circulation on each continent, such as the French daily newspaper, which occupied six pages and detailed the coastal areas suitable for the construction of ports on the coastline of each continent of Veron, counting more than 400 places.

At first, there was a suspicion that Tatoflan was nothing more than grandstanding, until a very good geologist saw the article and found that one of the sites indicated was not far from his exploration site, so he went to check it out, and found that the bay was as suitable for the construction of a harbour wharf, as it was written.

He published his findings in his society's internal journal, and soon other scholars looked elsewhere in the article based on his findings, and the results were the same.

As a result, the governments of the three continents immediately took the article seriously, and built ports according to the locations described in the article, and now more than eighty percent of all the port cities in the world were built according to the article by Tato Flan .

However, Tato Forlan's circumnavigation of the world seems to have run out of his luck, and on the third day of his return to Landall, when he came out of the tavern to return to the church, he happened to encounter a shipowner he had robbed in the past, and the shipowner was in debt and ruined his family because of his robbery.

After Tatoflan's death, the Poseidon Church sorted through his belongings and found that he had written a book in which he claimed to have been inspired by the god of the sea to see the past and the future, and recorded the contents of these observations in the style of the Church's holy words for prophecy, and the entire book was composed of words such as neurotic babbling.

At first, the Poseidon Church didn't care about the book and only buried it with it as a relic of Tato Flann, but as the article began to have an impact, the person was brought back to life, and the Poseidon Church began to re-examine the person and his relics.

Eventually, fifty years after Tatoflan's death, all the sites mentioned in Tatoflan's article were built into harbors, and the Poseidon Church began to canonize Tatoflan and re-extract the relics, edit and publish them, and name them the Tato Flan Book of Sacred Words.

There are a total of 1,650 prophecies in the Book of the Sacred Word of Tatoflan, of which more than 700 are events that have occurred before the book was written, more than 600 are deciphered prophecies, and more than 200 are undeciphered prophecies.

The three hundred and forty-six sages come from the prophecy of the three hundred and forty-six prophecies of the Book of Words, which is also called the opening language, and this language mentions only one thing, that is, Tato Flan once dreamed that three hundred and forty-six sages went to the temple of the god of the sea and chanted the name of the god of the sea in front of the temple gate, and at this time the temple gate slowly opened, and the god of the sea came out of the back door of the gate.

This language is not only valued within the Poseidon Church, but even some occult scholars who like to study prophecy from the outside world pay special attention to this prophecy, because it is the only prophecy in the entire book of the Sacred Word of Tato Flan that deals with the gods.

"They want to make a sage?" Recalling the contents of the Tato Flan Book of Words, especially the prophecy, Leo soon realized what was going on with the more than three hundred dead who were not recorded each year.

"It should be, but I don't know how they used to make the sages. Sylvia nodded, then said excitedly, "But I'm more concerned about another thing." ”

"What's the matter?" Leo wondered.

"Temple of Poseidon. Sylvia replied simply.

And Leo didn't need any other words, he immediately understood what Sylvia meant.

As Sylvia said, the Poseidon Temple is indeed the place that should be paid the most attention, since the Poseidon Church will find more than 300 people to make sages every year, then there must be a place to use these sages, so that is to say, Landauer's Poseidon Church has found the Poseidon Temple and can reach the temple.

In the Kingdom of England, the Royal Family of England and the Poseidon Church both claim that the Poseidon Temple is in the waters of the Inge Islands, and the Poseidon Church in Landauer has always had a negative attitude towards this statement, but the Inge Royal Family has mastered the Poseidon Scepter, and their voice is greater, and believers believe in them more, and even many local believers in Landauer feel that the Poseidon Temple is really near the Inge Islands.

"If they really found the Poseidon Temple, why didn't they announce it?" Leo said with a little puzzlement: "If they announce it, it will definitely be a heavy blow to the Inge royal family, and the impact on the believers of the Poseidon Church is also huge, and it can even affect the secular power of the Poseidon Church." ”

Landauer's Poseidon Church has always been in a weak position in the battle with the Inge royal family, mainly because Landauer's Poseidon Church does not have an artifact in its hands that can represent the authority of Poseidon such as the Poseidon Scepter, so the Poseidon Church has always tried every possible way to find some legendary Poseidon artifacts, but unfortunately there has been no result.

However, if Landall's Poseidon Church really grasps the whereabouts of the Poseidon Temple, and can even take people to the Poseidon Temple, then if this matter is announced, its impact will definitely be far more than a Poseidon artifact, and at that time, the Inge royal family's statement about the location of the Poseidon Temple will be self-defeating, and Landall's Poseidon Church will inevitably take its place and become the center of the Poseidon Church in the Velen World.

"You're thinking too simply!" Sylvia shook her head and said, "If you're right, a long time ago, even before the Inge royal family crossed the sea, it was very likely that Landall's Poseidon Church already knew the location of the Poseidon Temple, and even the three hundred and forty-six sages knew about it, otherwise how could it be that the dead people who didn't match it had already appeared before the Book of Sacred Words came out." ”

"I didn't expect that. Leo was stunned and said, "You're right, maybe I was wrong from the beginning, the prophecy content in the Book of Sacred Sayings is not only the future, but also the past, and the three hundred sages recorded by Tato Flan may be images of the past." ”

"If you think about it, for such a long time, the Landall Poseidon Church has not announced this matter to the public, and even when it was fighting with the English royal family for Poseidon orthodoxy, it did not use this matter to reverse the situation, which can be explained not only by its own problems. Sylvia tapped her fingers on the table, and while thinking, she said: "If it is in the past, the Poseidon Church is probably worried about the French Empire, because once the Poseidon Church announces the location of the Poseidon Temple, then the influence of the Poseidon Church will expand rapidly, and it will inevitably affect the rule of the French Empire in the south." And now the Poseidon Church does not announce the location of the Poseidon Temple, I am more afraid that it is more worried about other churches, because once it is announced, in this era when the gods disappear, the Poseidon may be the only true god in the Velen world, and unlike other gods, they can only enter through other methods in their incarnation. Coupled with the world's dependence on the ocean now, the influence of the Poseidon Church in the Velonon world will swell to an unprecedented level at that time, and it may even dominate the faith of the Velonidon world. ”

"The Poseidon Church has such a great influence?" Leo was stunned, a little surprised.

"Last year, I saw in a survey of believers in the Orthodox Church that the church with the largest number of pan-believers on the three continents of the world is actually the Poseidon Church. Sylvia explained: "Although the Poseidon Church is far from being able to compare the number of devotees with other large churches of the Orthodox Church, it has so many pan-believers that once they know where the Poseidon Temple is located and that the Poseidon is sleeping there, whether or not the Poseidon performs miracles in front of them, they will quickly change from pan-believers to devout believers." This is definitely a threat to other churches, as long as Landall's Poseidon Church dares to reveal the location of the Poseidon Temple, then it will inevitably be besieged by other churches, and it is not surprising that it will be branded as a degenerate cult. ”

After listening to Sylvia's words, Leo didn't ask any more questions about this matter, he was not interested in this kind of struggle for faith and power, and he had no intention of getting involved, he was more concerned about his own affairs, so he asked, "Is there any place where this matter can be used by us?"

"Absolutely. Sylvia smiled and said, "Whether it's the three hundred sages or the location of the Seagod Temple, it can bring us a lot of benefits, but this needs to be handled carefully, otherwise it will be easy to be self-defeating." ”

As she spoke, Sylvia walked around the room twice, and then, as if thinking of something, quickly walked to the desk, took out a beautifully crafted sticky note paper from the desk drawer, quickly wrote a few lines on it, and then put it into a special envelope for Castle Black, sealed it with wax, and stamped the Belmont family badge on the ring, then picked up the table and shook the bell.

Before the bell could dissipate from the room, the butler came in through the door, saluted Sylvia, and said, "Master, what do you command?"

"Send this letter to Bishop Barron of the Poseidon Church. Sylvia commanded as she handed over the letter in her hand.

The butler took the letter and bowed down.

"Bishop Barron?" After Leo heard Sylvia's words, he immediately searched for this person's information and said, "That hardliner of the Poseidon Church, the commander-in-chief of the Poseidon Church's fleet?"

After the Kingdom of England became the overlord of the sea, the control of ocean routes brought huge benefits to the Kingdom of England, and such huge benefits naturally aroused the coveting of the Randolph Poseidon Church, which also had the authority of the sea, so the Randolph Poseidon Church has always wanted to form a fleet exclusive to the church.

They expect to gain huge benefits from controlling a sea area, or mastering a shipping route, etc., through this fleet.

It's a pity that neither the French Empire nor the Kingdom of England at that time wanted such a fleet to appear, the Kingdom of France did not want to have forces beyond their control, and the Kingdom of England was completely worried about the predation of the Randolph Poseidon Church.

Therefore, I know that this fleet has never been formed because of the obstacles of all parties, but although the fleet has not been formed, the manpower needed for the fleet has been determined early, and the commander-in-chief of the fleet is this Bishop Barron, who often talks about holy wars and serves as a heresy inquisitor all year round.

Because of Bishop Barron's various hardline behaviors, many people feel that if the Landauer Poseidon Church one day puts Bishop Barron in power, the Poseidon Church will either go to glory or destruction, and there is absolutely no third way.
