Chapter 11: Baptism of Light

Under the leadership of Manto, Alan walked up to the baptismal platform that had been arranged with excitement, the baptismal platform was carefully carved from a single piece of pure white marble, the whole platform was rectangular, about half a meter high, and in front of the platform was a small statue of the Nine Holy Spirits, surrounded by countless cherubs of different shapes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info is not so much an instrument made for the baptism of the light as it is a great work of art.

Allen, who was standing on the platform, looked around at the decorations in front of him, and secretly admired them in his heart.

"Your Highness, Your Highness. Manto's slightly anxious voice sounded in his ears, and Alan turned his head to look at Manto in confusion, "Your Highness, the ceremony is about to begin." ”

Alan reacted at this time, and hurriedly folded his arms in front of his chest as he learned from Elaine yesterday, and slowly knelt in front of the idol.

"This posture, it's really a good mother, why do you have to be like this to receive the baptism of holy light, can't you set up a handsome action for men. Although four years of study have made Alan more mature, but the nature of the previous life still cannot be changed, and he still can't help but complain in his heart on this occasion, fortunately, no one can hear what Alan thinks in his heart, otherwise it will have to cause chaos.

Edward IV took the scepter from Manto's hand and walked over to the huge statue of the Holy Spirit in the temple, where he placed the scepter in front of him with a solemn expression, "King of the gods, Lord of order, accept the call of your devout disciples and bestow your light on the earth." ”

"It's a shame. Just as Alan was sighing for the incantation, the statue of the god king Augsg in the temple suddenly lit up, and all the people in the temple knelt on the ground, and for a while, only the Pope was still standing in front of the statue.

"Kura, Lottacaia......" A difficult and awkward phrase came out of Edward IV's mouth, and he immediately raised the scepter, and as the incantation progressed, the scepter in Edward IV's hand was gradually covered with a milky white light.

As the light slowly climbed to the top of the scepter, the jewel on the scepter suddenly released a colorful ray of light and rushed straight towards the god-king statue. Then, Alan felt as if the statue had the breath of life, and he couldn't help but look up, what kind of eyes were they! The endless stars turned in the statue's eyes, making Eren feel as if he was in the universe and felt the insignificance of human beings themselves.

The next moment, two holy rays of light rushed out of the statue's eyes, directly enveloping Allen, and the brilliance surged, gradually forming a holy cocoon. Then everything was calm again, and only the light cocoon on the baptismal altar proved that everything that had just happened was real.

"What is this, what's going on......" There was a burst of exclamation from the hall, and Manto stared at the light cocoon, confused. Edward IV walked to the baptismal altar and handed the scepter in his hand to Manto, who subconsciously took the scepter and then asked, "Your Majesty, what is going on?"

At this time, Elaine and Lehman in the audience were also worried, according to everyone's knowledge, the holy light of the gods through the statue of the god will shine on the statuette of the baptismal platform, and then baptize the recipient through a series of transformations of the baptismal platform. Something like this that directly hits the recipient and forms a cocoon of light has never happened.

"Don't be alarmed, the Son is fine, and the baptism will be completed in a while. Those who still have business to do should leave first. Edward IV's voice calmed the crowd.

The Pope waved Manto to leave first, but he stood quietly on the edge of the stage, not knowing what he was thinking. As time went on, the people in the temple gradually dispersed, and although everyone was curious about what happened to the Son, in recent years the affairs of the Holy See have become more and more busy, and they can no longer live and work as leisurely as before.

"Buzz, buzz. A sound came from the baptismal platform, attracting the attention of everyone present, and as the frequency of the sound gradually increased, the light cocoon began to vibrate continuously, and with this strange tremor, countless points of light peeled off the cocoon and slowly escaped.

......

The moment he was wrapped in the holy light, it was as if his tired body had entered hot water, and his whole body and even his spirit became extremely comfortable and relaxed. "Is this what it feels like to be baptized by the Holy Light, it's really comfortable. Alan opened his eyes and found himself in a confined space filled with white mist, he took a deep breath, and a cool pleasure permeated his body.

"Is this the power of God, it's really desirable. Alan muttered to himself, and although he didn't quite understand why what he saw in front of him was not as described in the book, he was surprised not to have the slightest doubt. Observing carefully, Alan found that the white mist around him was composed of countless tiny points of light, and he couldn't help but want to reach out and touch these points of light, but before Alan could act, all the white mist revolved around Allen, and with the rotation of the white mist, a torrent of light points rushed out of the white mist and sank into Allen's body.

What is the situation! Alan was a little dumbfounded, according to the book, after baptism, a part of the divine power will naturally remain in the body of the recipient, but the scene in front of him is obviously beyond the description in the book, this divine power is simply pouring into his own body.

"Looks like I'm really the protagonist's life. Although I don't know why, this can't stop the ecstasy in Allen's heart at all. Just as Alan watched the divine power pour into his body, the light cocoon that wrapped him gradually dissipated, and the entire temple was also covered with light spots that escaped when the light cocoon dissipated, and the people who were still in the temple all received great benefits, although it was impossible for them to awaken the divine arts, but their bodies would also become stronger, which made those who did not leave secretly rejoice.

There were only two people who didn't care about it, one was Elaine, who folded her hands and stared at Allen's figure on the stage. The other is Pope Edward IV, at this time Edward IV's eyes revealed endless sadness, he looked up at the statue of the god-king, and said to himself: "How long can you last......

As Alan's figure became clearer and clearer, and all the points of light gradually dissipated between heaven and earth, as if nothing had happened, Eren looked up and looked around, and found that he was back in the temple, and the Pope was standing on the edge of the baptistery. The moment he saw Edward IV's eyes, Alan suddenly felt a wave of sadness, and even he didn't know what the reason for this emotion was.

Edward IV obviously realized what was happening, and quickly collected his feelings, "Holy Son, you have completed your baptism, let's take a good look at your gain." ”

Alan broke free from that inexplicable emotion and walked down the baptismal altar with his head bowed, and when the Pope and the clergy left the temple, Elaine and Lehman hurriedly greeted Allen.

"Your Highness, how is it, what abilities have you gained?" asked Lehman curiously.

Elaine glanced at Lehman, "Your Highness Allen, the ability of your divine arts must be kept strictly secret, and no one can know about it casually. ”

Alan couldn't laugh or cry, he could feel the divine power entering his body forming a white sphere and staying quietly in his chest, but he didn't have a clue about his divine ability, "This, I don't know what my divine ability is." ”

"It's impossible, those who have been baptized have immediate access to the divine magic they have obtained. Lehman was a little incredulous about Alan's statement. What is rare is that Elaine did not refute Lehman, and also looked at Alan with a puzzled expression.

"I really don't know, okay, okay, it's almost time, I'm going to go to Master Sol to practice martial arts, I'll go to the Pope and ask when I have time, you two go back first." "Elaine and Lehman, who let Elaine and Rayman leave, walked towards the garden alone, thinking that maybe Master Thor could help him solve the problem of magic, and Alan didn't believe that Thor would have no magic!

......

"Seal, grid, bottom left, top ......"

"Oops. Eren let out a scream, and the wooden sword in Thor's hand was pressed against Alan's lower abdomen.

"I said I had to trust your eyes, not your ears!, but I've made some progress today, okay, let's take a break. Thor withdrew his sword and gestured to the chair next to him.

"Master, next time can you stop shouting, I'm dizzy. Alan rubbed his lower abdomen and said with a little dissatisfaction. After 3 years of basic practice, Thor finally began to formally teach Alan to fight in the past year, but this unscrupulous teacher always has a set of words and a set of hands, just like just now, shouting "Shang" on his lips, but in fact, he stabbed Allen in the lower abdomen with a sword.

"You receive the information yourself, and of course you have to make your own judgment. Do you expect your enemies to never deceive you, Your Highness? Thor sat down in a chair and taught Alan.

Allen still has a good impression of Saul, who replaced Rice as his teacher, and the other party has really taught him a lot in recent years. Alan glanced at Thor, who was now mature and dashing, and couldn't help but think back to Thor who had just returned to the Holy Mountain from the Forbidden Mountain Range four years ago, and couldn't believe that the two were the same person.

"Why didn't Your Highness speak, shouldn't you refute me at this time?" Seeing Alan staring at him, Sol was a little uncomfortable.

"Oh, it's nothing, I just remembered Captain Rice, I don't know how he's doing now. Indeed, thinking back to Saul four years ago, Alan can't help but think of Rice. Although what happened back then put Alan in danger, the notes left by Royce did help Alan a lot.

"Well, the Forbidden Mountains......" I don't know if Thor was thinking about Rice or recalling his days in that place, and the atmosphere between the two suddenly became a little dull.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Alan hurriedly changed the topic, "By the way, Master Thor, after being baptized this morning, I haven't been able to find out what my divine art is until now, do you know what's going on?"

"Oh," Thor put aside the matter of the Forbidden Mountains and pondered Allen's question, "Generally speaking, there are two situations that will lead to the current situation of His Highness. One is that His Highness's divine magic is the type that strengthens itself, if this is the case, then the divine magic will be fixed in the body when the baptism is completed, and the recipient will not be able to use the divine magic, but in this case, the physical strength or physical strength will change dramatically. ”

"My body hasn't changed at all, and my physical strength hasn't changed at all. Alan denied the situation.

"The second case is more complicated. ”
