"Was that flame flickering? What color? What was the strange sound?"

After asking twice, the priests still could not answer, and the head of the court couldn't help but be angry, so he scolded the priests in the hall with their heads and faces--the head of the court scolded people with characteristics, and his use of vulgar language and the magic of using organs to metaphor people did not look like a mixed church at all, but like an open courtyard.

The priests were very honest when they were scolded, and they hung their heads one by one and let the old priest be angry...... It seems that there is something wrong with the apostle's soul fire? This kind of thing can be big or small, don't get involved with yourself

"Who brought the Sacred Fire Bronze Manual?" the court leader finally asked in a cold voice, "No one brought it?"

"More than 20 pounds of stuff ......" someone whispered to defend: "Only fools carry it." ”

"Don't want to be a fool?" The court leader didn't burst into a rage this time, but just sneered: "Then you will go and be a dead man-"

"Senior, do you need this book?" Inadvertently, a book more than two inches thick with a bronze plate cover appeared.

Bronze manual

All the clergy all said "huh", and their overjoyed gaze lifted up slightly, and then their eyes were glazed, and their bodies shook and then flicked back, as if they saw something terrible—the old priest frowned, turned his head to look at the person who presented the bronze manual, and found that this person was actually his nominal subordinate, rumored rival, and the upstart of the Church, Auston.

Frankly speaking, Auston's deterrent power seems to be greater than that of the old priest, and after he appeared, the little priests did not dare to speak out - the boss who was complained about suddenly appeared, and he carried a manual of more than 20 pounds, no matter how you look at it, he is here to retaliate, right?

I don't know what it's like to have a bronze manual on my body?

"It turned out to be the vice president. The head of the court seemed to be smiling.

Ever since Auston came to Shenwei Court to take turn, the old priest has retreated and let him do what he wants, and he doesn't care about it. It seems to be completely scared, so it's not surprising that such rumors appear.

"You have a manual with you, and you are not afraid of being taken as a fool?" the court leader asked this at this time, how do you look like you are afraid of things?

"Actually, I've always ......," Auston was a little surprised, but no matter who asked, he had only one answer: "I've never been very smart." ”

"I've heard that you have an unusual humility, and it is. The head of the court did not take the bronze manual, but turned his head and reprimanded the priests in the hall: "I don't have the heart to repair it now, you can roll to the wall for me first."

"It's not good to be too modest. By receiving the gift of the true God, the priest only needs to be sincere and proclaim the name of the true God. Then he glanced at Auston again: "Modesty like that...... What are the masks coming for?"

"Piety, can be used to hide my tiredness and anger. Auston replied in a serious way, in the words he had learned from the devil: "Since you have a fierce face, keep a good smile." ”

"It's an excuse, but it's hard to get this bluntness. The head of the court nodded slowly: "Since you're here...... Just follow along. ”

"It is my blessing that my predecessors are willing to teach. Auston didn't think of anything else, and just nodded in response.

In the eyes of the church's veterans, Auston's resume was indeed unconvincing, but almost no one could embarrass him to his face, largely because of his simple attitude—neither humble nor arrogant, neither close nor close, neither angry nor intimidating.

The priests who were being disciplined were also puzzled, for in front of the group of the Twelve Apostles, the head of the court stood side by side with Auston.

Alston held up the heavy bronze booklet, which the head of the court flipped through from time to time. Occasionally, the head of the court would also point to the soul fire and whisper a few words, and Oss suddenly nodded in a sudden realization, and sometimes asked for advice with doubts on his face. Gradually, this old and small discussion has come to involve the secrets of the Court.

Those scattered words are actually the secrets of the church that everyone has been asking for

The clergy in the corner couldn't help but be jealous.

Flattery, sycophancy, shamelessness, this world is really unfair, merciful, great God, open your eyes and see, there is a big problem with the system of the Glorious Church

"Don't be intimidated by the name of the Soul Fire, it's not some ancient magic, and the Flame has no direct connection to the Apostle. The head of the court winked at Auston: "The shape and color hint at the state of the apostles, but the flames can't speak, hence the bronze manual...... At the level of interpretation, Shen Weiting must come up with the real thing, and cannot talk about it in generalities. ”

"It is not the same thing for others to despise themselves as they despise themselves. The head of the court looked at the priests at the base of the wall: "Those who can only clean are not qualified to retire here." ”

"Understood. Alston never complained, and never cared about other people's complaints: "How do we interpret the flames?"

"Extinguishing the flame is the simplest, it means that the apostle has returned to the embrace of the true God, or that the bastard on duty has forgotten to add oil. The head of the court carried forward the old man's style: "The flickering flame represents danger, indicating that the apostle's state is unstable and his mood is too fluctuating." ”

"I understand that the state is unstable, but the mood fluctuates too much...... Is this also dangerous?"

"It's really important to say that the church's position is very high-end, higher than you can imagine. So it doesn't matter if some people lose their lives, the key is not to lose the face of the church. The head of the court suddenly asked, "How do you understand this kind of thing?"

The head of the court did not deliberately keep his voice down, so the clergy at the base of the wall heard it, but they had a cold war at the same time - of course the church was huge, and of course it didn't matter if they lost a clergyman. But the head of the court is talking about the apostles now, and this kind of important person is not a small shrimp, not that he is not distressed to sacrifice at all

Isn't the head of the court dizzy? How can you say that this kind of nonsense is spreading?

Auston didn't seem to understand what it meant to seek advantage and avoid harm, and after a moment of silence, he actually answered this fateful question.

"I want to ...... This is because the church has the largest congregation, the most resources, and the most selection mechanism, so there is no concern that there will be a shortage of apostles. Alston looked calm: "Compared to this, it seems more difficult to maintain your reputation?"

"It's not about maintaining the reputation of the church. The head of the court smiled and said, "Reputation is in the hearts of others, and no one is powerless to change it, and the true God has left the church with only two choices—to allow them to express it, and not to allow them to speak?"

Well, the real answer is that the church can't give authority. It's embarrassing to think that someone can attack a church for tens or hundreds of years with an event. ”

"Occasional embarrassment," Auston asked rhetorically, "is this...... Doesn't seem like a big deal?"

"It doesn't count on you, it counts on me. The head of the court said: "I'm so old, maybe I'll meet a stranger when I go out to walk the dog, if I quarrel, what should the other party do to humiliate me with this kind of thing?"

"We can't take something very unlikely as a necessity......," Auston replied earnestly, "Even if it happens, we can fight back with the Psychic Guild's scandal." ”

The first half of the sentence is okay, but the second half of the sentence is off. It seems that your understanding of the divine needs to be improved. The head of the court gently let go of this question and turned his head to look at the stone carving: "The apostle is a human being, and his mood fluctuates, so he may do unpredictable things. ”

"And what is the situation today?"

"The last apostle in the list seems to be called Bivigny. The old priest pointed to the statue: "You have to go in and check it out." ”

Auston is a young man, and he can't let an older person do that. So he immediately pulled up his robe and walked into the aisle behind the statue on his knees. According to the instructions of the court leader, he started by checking the fuel and eliminated the human props one by one......

When he came out again, the head of the court handed him a towel to wipe his hands, but the expression on his face was a little grim.

"You" the old priest pointed to one of his subordinates: "Go and find out the whereabouts of Bivigny immediately, I want the real whereabouts"

"Yes" The priest who was in the middle of the point found that the old priest's eyes had a piercing chill, and he didn't dare to shirk it at all.

"You immediately inform the apostles who remain at headquarters, we may be in a bit of trouble; you!go prepare an urgent proclamation to be copied; you go and confirm the number of commissioners on duty......" The old priest's fingers began to move, and he quickly arranged things for his men, all the steps blurted out, and there was no time to think about the details.

This completely subverted the impression of old age and mediocrity in the minds of his subordinates.

"Senior, today is a vacation, do you need to notify so many people?" Alston asked, "With the strength of the apostles, there are very few people who can cause them trouble, right?"

"While you were examining, the flames changed again," the old priest lowered his voice, "Bivigny is probably injured." ”

"Hurt?" Auston's brow furrowed, "He's an apostle." ”

"Even if the apostle is favored by the true god, he is only a rare opponent, and he is still far from being invincible......" The court head looked left and right, and shook his head: "The hall is too stuffy, go out for a walk." ”

Probably feeling that there were too many people in the Hall of Will to talk, the head of the court took Auston to the roof garden. Alston originally thought that the complaints of the court chief were just old words, and it didn't matter if he listened to these complaints as gossip.

But Auston didn't expect that, and as he continued to listen, his forehead began to sweat - most of what he heard could not be said in public. But that's not all, and the head of the court himself is even more suspicious of Alston because his words are clearly inconsistent with his identity

If you can't guess that the head of the court is actually a big man, Auston really wasted someone's painstaking training that day. But Auston will not take the initiative to ask the head of the court, there will be a price to pay for revealing the secret, he has little capital and does not dare to squander it.

+ Passion

“...... If we use the words of the paranormal to explain, in the apostolic level, there are about seven or eight levels. It has reached the point where it is dissolved with power. You're a simple priest, so you probably don't know what it means, do you?"

Auston nodded. He's just a simple priest, and he's not good at fighting, killing, let alone magic.

"You're not low-level, you may have to deal with them in the future, so it doesn't hurt to get to know them. The head of the court said: "When we talk about magic and they talk about ability, they are actually interpretations of power, but the starting point is different. The church believes that the power is bestowed by the true God, and the Miracle Guild says that it is the result of its own training - I almost forgot, parentheses, the Miracle Guild is heresy. ”

The head of the court said the brackets with a perfunctory face, and Auston saw it in his eyes and wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.

"The so-called ** and power coexist and dissolve, this realm should start from the accumulation of strength. If you look at strength as water, the ordinary way is nothing more than a cup or bag, which can only last up to five or six levels, and then it will not work. The analogy of the head of the court is very straightforward: "Upgrading is a process from the outside in, to put it simply, the way of advanced points is to use the body as a container to carry power, the two do not interfere with each other, and the power is sent and received at will." ”

Alston didn't know much, so he didn't ask.

"Maybe you think, isn't it very easy to drink water?" the student did not ask, and the head of the court could only ask himself: "The water that you drink will not be water when it comes out again." This water is stored for use, not to fill the bladder. ”

Alston nodded, but he wasn't really interested in anything too detailed.

"If you break through this level, you will not only gain stronger strength, but you will also have a leap forward. Therefore, killing the enemy with your eyes is not a joke, but it is really possible. The court leader smiled: "For example, an eighth-level ability master, his body is very powerful, ordinary swords can't hurt, and ordinary abilities can't be beaten." ”

"Even if he doesn't move, a flash of thought can unleash a powerful ability in an instant. ”

"Uh...... Don't you need to make some kind of gesture?" that's all Alston remembered about the ability.

"That's exactly what I'm going to say next, the real strength of the strong. The head of the court said, "When you incorporate power into your body and master it, you will have that power to yourself." Think about it, to use your own power, do you still need to compare the gestures set by your predecessors and sing the hymns written by others?"

"What is a strong man? A person who can only kill is certainly not, and a person who is restricted by the environment and bound by external rules is certainly not a strong person -- the strong law of the strong is that the strong can be obtained after thinking about it."

"Laws?" Alston caught the keyword.

"Flowers bloom and leaves fall, wind, frost, rain and snow, laws are everywhere. The head of the court explained: "A person who uses his own strength, formulates his own laws, and decides his own path is the real strong." ”

"But ......" Auston frowned and asked, "If the strong can break through the law, won't it be a big mess in the world?"

"Who can change the laws of the world except the true god?" The court leader smiled faintly, his eyes scanned the will hall below through the transparent glass, and he whispered in his mouth: "The true god said, where I stand, I am the master." ”

The head of the court only stopped chanting at this point, without sorrow or joy, and stopped talking.

Although Auston was not prepared, he was able to memorize the extremely long and complicated texts back then, and he was not afraid of such familiar small passages, so he continued to recite: "I am the master of the place where I stand, and I am the world as far as the eye sees, and the ...... of the realm as the mind goes."

―――――――― the following does not count as a word count:

Sigh: Auston is finally really on the line......

Because Auston has not been able to fight so far, such a "helpless" person, if he only appears for the first time now, he will definitely be ignored, and maybe he will be thrown into the garbage heap, unable to undertake his mission (of course, I gave him).

So this classmate took up a lot of space at the beginning and shared the light of Townsend, and I paid a heavy price for it. However, he's playing really well now, and I'm happy when I write it.

I really enjoyed these episodes, including the 16th episode. But you can't think of my favorite paragraphs......

One is a sentence: "Call the true God ......"

The second is a large article: "The master sent down by the general association this time is genuine......

Favorite sentence: "I'll teach you, Bao Hui." ”

The first two paragraphs are more because of my personal preferences, and you can look forward to it by the way. But the third sentence, I think most people will like it, I like that very much.

Well, today I have a thousand more words, because tomorrow I have to rest, sleep, bask in the sun, and eat nonsense
