Chapter 21: Original Sin

In the past ten years, Billiver has been heading north. In the beginning www.biquge.info he used magic to eliminate diseases for those who were suffering from diseases, to gather food for the hungry, and to explain the scriptures and spread the teachings of God to the believers.

But then there is more and more begging, the hungry begging for food and clothing, the well-fed begging for money, the guilty begging for forgiveness, and the innocent begging for reward. And the more abilities Clifford demonstrated, the more people begged him.

"Greed is the original sin. Billiver sighed.

From this day on, he no longer performed magic in front of people, and he continued to walk north in his tattered and dirty sacrificial robes.

The farther north he went, the farther he went, the farther away from the control of the Holy See, and the number of heretics increased, not just as slaves, but more as rebels or followers of evil gods. Poverty, backwardness, and violence gripped the entire north.

Billvier saw the cruelty of the Christians to the infidels, treating them like animals, killing them whenever they wanted, sometimes for ridiculous reasons like "stealing a cookie" or "soiling the floor". Not only is the hatred between believers and infidels irresolvable, but even between believers and believers, there is only indifference and even hostility.

He sighed: "Jealousy, arrogance, slackness, lust...... This is a place forsaken by God. ”

Further north, he saw the war between the Papal army and the infidels, slaughtering cities, slaughtering, and abusing prisoners, and eventually a large number of captives were transported to the heart of the empire, where they would become slaves along with his sons, his grandchildren, and every generation of his descendants.

Is this the propagation of God's glory? The original sin of wrath has made their faith no longer religious. Cliffor's walking posture became more and more rickety, as the once light shackles of faith became too "heavy". It was so heavy that he couldn't walk with his waist straight.

He was like a hunchbacked old man, with his head bowed, bypassing the most tragic northern battlefield and crossing the borders of the Light and Dark Empire.

After walking for ten years, on this day, he stepped into the green forest, where there was no worldly distraction, only demonic beasts and trees in the sky. Legend has it that there are beautiful elves in the depths of the Forest of Oz.

After walking in the Green Forest for half a month, Biriff encountered many dangers, but for a fifteenth-level high priest, these dangers were not fatal. But on the eighteenth day, he was in danger enough to threaten his life - he encountered a group of wood spirits.

The distant relatives of these elves have a higher intelligence than ordinary people, have their own society, their own civilization, and like the elves, they are isolated from the world and love to live in the forest.

Ordinary wood spirits have eighth-level combat power when they are adults, but these wood spirits surrounding Bi Lifu are obviously the best among them, and the worst one also has a twelve-level combat power.

A few days ago, Clifford had noticed something peeking at him from the depths of the forest, but he didn't expect it to be a Wood Spirit group. Of the twenty or so wood spirits surrounding him, several of them exuded a terrifying aura, and their leader was even a sixteenth-level wood spirit archer.

Their bows and arrows were pointed at Billever, and the arrows emitted a green light, which meant that the arrows were smeared with deadly poison, and the bows and arrows that could be used as weapons by this group of powerful wood spirits must not be underestimated.

"I'm just a traveler who strayed into the forest. Clifford raised his hands in the air, "I don't mean it badly. ”

The Wood Spirits didn't lay down their weapons, but instead pressed on Clifford step by step.

Suddenly, the Wood Spirit Leader spoke, "Are you a priest?" He spoke very nicely, and his deep voice spoke in the standard official language of the Light and Dark Empire.

"Yes, sacrifice. Billever's smiled, "An ascetic, to be exact. ”

"Salute to you, sacrifice. The Wood Spirit Leader said, "Don't be nervous, we don't have any ill intentions. It's just that we need your help. ”

"Whether I'm willing to help or not...... Clifford looked left and right, and smiled wryly, "It doesn't seem like I can refuse." ”

"I'm sorry, you're strong, we have to do something. The leader of the wood spirits said, "My name is Anas, and I am their leader. ”

"Yes, Chief Anas, my name is Perifer. Clifford bowed slightly, a sign of respect for a strong man, "If there's anything I can do to help, just ask." ”

Hearing that Clifford was willing to help, the wood spirits were obviously relieved. At the signal of the leader of Anas, the wood spirits put away their bows and arrows.

Anas stepped forward and raised his hand holding the bow and arrow in the air, a ritual among the wood spirits, to show that he had no weapon in his hand, as a gesture of friendship.

"Then please come with me, sacrifice. ”

The Wood Spirit led Billifer to the depths of the forest, where there was a gathering place for these Wood Spirits, just a simple treehouse, but it was enough for these strong Wood Spirits.

Arriving at this gathering place, the other wood spirits scattered separately, and only the leader Anas led Byrifer. It didn't take long for Clifford to see what Mu Ling called a "problem".

It was a young wood spirit, who looked like a little human girl was five or six years old. When Clifford saw her, she was lying in a hollow in a tree, covered with several thick leaves.

When Clifford uncovered the large leaves that had wrapped around her, he exclaimed, "What a pure soul!"

Blessed with the grace of a ascetic practice, Perifer was able to discern the purity of the soul. And pious faith requires the purity of the soul first and foremost, and the Salvation Book also mentions the phrase "...... God is not seen until there is no spot".

The little wood spirit in front of him was the purest soul Bi Livier had ever seen, but the body that contained this pure soul was covered with large black spots, even covering half of his face, and the little wood spirit's original cute appearance now looked hideous.

Billever's mood was very complicated now, he couldn't bear the death of this little wood spirit with a pure soul, he had never seen such a soul, without a trace of impurities, as pure as white paper, which made Billvier want to immediately accept her as a disciple and teach her the doctrine of the Lord, she would definitely be better than him, and more favored by God. But now the dark spots were eating away at her.

Billever's pacing back and forth in the hollow of the tree finally raised his fist: "I must save her!"

He took out the Jue Cup and the "Salvation Record" from his bag, put the Jue Cup on the head of Xiao Mu Ling's bed, held the "Salvation Record" in his hand, and performed the Holy Grace Technique.

"The Lord said, 'Whoever believes in me, I will take sickness and pestilence by the throat and keep you away from them in the light I have given.' Pray sincerely, and you will be fearless of sickness. ’”。

The holy light shone on the little wood spirit's body, and the dark spots began to fade.

Billvier picked up the cup, which was already half filled with holy water, and poured it over the head of the little wood spirit, pouring it all over her body.

The black spots dissipated like ice and snow, and Xiao Mu Ling suddenly opened his closed eyes, opened his mouth wide, and let out a terrible scream: "Ah!"

"The power of evil. Billever's brows furrowed, only the power of evil could clash so much with the divine power of the light attribute. The priesthood of the Lord of Light and Darkness represents light and darkness, and the clergy of the Church of Light and Darkness naturally have two factions, light and dark, but Clifford is obviously a disciple of the Light Sect, and he is not good at dealing with the erosion of this dark attribute, so he can only use the most primitive and direct method - to use the divine power of the light attribute to exhaust these evil forces.

Little Wood Spirit's body seemed to have recovered its health, but Billever's face became heavier and heavier, and although the evil power had faded a lot, it had not disappeared.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the dark spots on her body to reappear, and even worse.

Billivor didn't try again, he walked out of the hollow of the tree, where Anas, the leader of the Wood Spirits, was waiting.
