Chapter Eighty-Eight: God
The Imperial Cathedral is becoming more and more like that, and the main building covered with moss and vines has been swept and polished to reveal its original color, solemn and bold. The painted glass was also assembled, and everyone was full of energy. Watching the dilapidated cathedral come to life in their own hands, everyone was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
Sunlight penetrates the stained glass, casting a dreamy view on the white jade ground, as if you are in a fantasy world.
The ceremonial officer's new subordinate did not make trouble for Rosie, but instead offered him up like an uncle. He doesn't have to do any work, and he has someone to accompany him when he wants to travel, just for fear that he will toss something. Rossi also had time to stay in church, kneeling under the cross, bowing her head and praying.
The idol in the field of vision is still the same as if it can't see clearly, but it is clearer between the eyebrows and eyes. The light around God's body dimmed a little again, and as the age of the end of the Dharma deepened, the new system with science as the cosmic norm was constantly strengthened, and the laws of the entire universe were changing at a rate that no one understood. The effect of the divine power is getting smaller and smaller, and the rate of obtaining the divine power through prayer is getting slower and slower. It may not be long before the Holy Power becomes an unrecognized myth, like the miracles that have been repeatedly manifested in books.
This is the sorrow of the age of the end of the law, the sorrow of the apostles.
Copernicus's descendants have all been killed, and although his bloodline has completely disappeared, his influence remains.
Scientists continue to announce the discovery of new celestial bodies and new cosmic elements, and the only thing that has not been discovered is the kingdom of heaven.
People don't trust the church because the kingdom of heaven doesn't exist.
The foundation of the church is faith, and the foundation of faith is the fear and worship of God by the believers. But God is gone, and science has made people no longer afraid.
It's a fucking world of real tama!
The Holy Power was rushing in Rossi's body, but he didn't feel a trace of relief, relying on prayer to obtain the Holy Power was too slow. At the current rate, he may not be able to reach Thor's strength until he dies. Thor was born more than a hundred years before him, and more than a hundred years ago, the scientific laws of the universe were not as perfect as they are now, and although they did not obtain holy power as fast as the apostles of the ancient times, they still obtained more and faster than the current people.
Must find a new way, Rosie doesn't want to be just a simple person, his goal is immortality!
Everything in the world is ambitious.
Seeds want to grow into trees that cover the sky, wild dogs want to fill their bellies, and people want more.
Power, wealth, status, prestige...... People's desires are endless, as long as they are good and beneficial to themselves, they all hope to get it.
Rossi sighed and stood up, and there were already a dozen or so worshippers in the cathedral with their hands on their chests, quietly praying, begging for peace of mind.
The development of religion was really difficult, and this was still in a feudal society like Tuhlman. In the Federation, in the Republic, the Church has been completely abandoned. It's not that there are no people who are religious, it's that the social environment doesn't allow people to be religious. People need to work hard for their own survival, and who has time to believe this? It is more practical to have time to work an extra job, or to take a break a little longer.
He walked through the back door of the church to the courtyard behind the church, where the workers were still busy. Although the main body of the cathedral has been renovated, there are still many areas that have not been taken care of, and the restoration work will continue for some time.
The little widow sat on the edge of the well, washing everyone's clothes, and although she lived a heavy life, she lived a very happy life. There is no bullying, no oppression, no need to force a smile to deal with those oil-rubbing hands, and the child has a better future. She doesn't need to show her face in order to survive, and she doesn't need to endure the verbal teasing or even manipulation of her employer for that meager salary. Hano took good care of her and made her feel the joy of life for the first time since she got married.
Rosie nodded as a greeting, and the little widow quickly stood up, a little restrained. With a wave of his hand, Rosie staggered over and pushed open the door to Hano's room, where the faithful lackey of the number one was praying to Rosie's idol.
He knew that Rosie was coming, but Rosie pressed him on the shoulder and didn't let him get up.
Standing in front of the idol, Rossi pondered for a moment, pricked his fingers, and dropped two drops of blood on the idol's eyes.
The eye is one of the most important organs of all animals, and it can read information about the world and also respond to its own emotions. On Earth, in China, there is a saying called the finishing touch. This statement extends to have a very wide application, for example, the owner of the stone lion used in the town house, the owner often uses his own blood to point two points on the eyes of the stone lion, implying that the stone lion can distinguish between good and evil, and protect the peace of the bloodline. For example, when painting, no matter what it is, whether it is a human or an animal, the finishing touch is the last stroke, and the good point can point out the spirituality, so that the content of the painting jumps on the paper, vivid, as if there is life.
Rosie's movements Hanno didn't understand, but after the two blood beads penetrated through the invisible gaps in the stone, Hano's spirit was in a trance for a moment, and he felt that the idol came to life, as if it was a living person, looking at him with a transcendent attitude.
He had a wonderful feeling, as if his faint holy power was beginning to boil, and a wonderful change was taking place, like a child who had found his parents. He didn't know if the change was good or bad, what was different, but he could feel that there was a thread in the dark that connected him more closely to the idol and to Rossi.
As the protagonist of the story, Rosie's holy power is also churning. He tilted his head and stared blankly at the roof. His gaze passed through the fog of time and space, pierced all the void, and looked into the depths of the universe. There was an unwilling roar in his ears, a roar mixed with anger and fear, and a hint of unwillingness.
He saw a man, standing in a cloud of light, locked in a black hole in the deepest part of the universe, struggling heartbreakingly. The invisible rules turned into chains, binding him tightly.
The man's eyes were extraordinarily bright, and he seemed to be able to see Rosie, and Rosie could see through his eyes, his cruelty and rage, and his fear.
He was scared.
Rosie chuckled, taking a deep breath to withdraw his gaze. He didn't know if it was his hallucination or if it was something real, but he could see his prayer progress bar jump again. He was just a little bit away from having a new magic spell to use.
Useful!
He clenched his fists.
God, in order to bring me to the top of the world, then please die!
Rosie patted Hano on the shoulder, didn't say anything to him, and went straight out the door.
It just so happened that Ares came over, and he had something to report to Rosie.
Rosie asks him to arrange for someone to investigate Aveley, and the results are already available, but the results are surprising.
In ancient times, the Church was not the only protagonist of the world, and in that turbulent era, there were other powerful forces besides the Church, and one of them was an organization called the Society of Truth. A group of people who claim to pursue the truth of the universe have gathered to exert the power of nature through various means. Within the Church there is a very wide name for them: magicians.
Their great power can swaying the stars in the sky, using them as weapons to guide them down from outer space and ram enemies. Their strength is incomparable, and even when the Church is at its strongest, ruling the entire Western Continent, the Truth Society is still able to develop its power steadily. Not because of anything else, only one thing, and that is that they are strong.
However, it is a pity that with the advent of the end of the law, the magicians decayed faster and more completely than the apostles, and nature completely cut off their way to use the power of nature through chanting or other means.
Many people think that magicians are a thing of the past, that they have completely disappeared, but this is not the case. The Truth Society has a much longer history and heritage than the Church, thousands of years of knowledge, and a thorough understanding of nature, which is enough to transform them.
They have been transformed into pioneers of the times, and they have a new name - scientists.
Avery is one of the members of the Truth Society, and his purpose is unknown, but as he himself says, he has traveled throughout the Turman Empire. Although the Templar was powerful, he could not read the mind or soul of a person, and no one knew what he was going to do, what he wanted to do, or what he was going to do.
But for Rossi, this is an interesting person, and he represents an interesting group.
That's all it takes.
Keep staring at him, that's Rosie's instructions.
As Rossi's title rose and his status in the Fabio nobility grew, the Templars, who were on the edge of light and darkness, leaned more towards Rossi. They were all real pragmatists, and there was no reason why Rossi's actions would bring very clear benefits to the church, and there was no reason why they should not support him.
However, Yarez also brought another piece of news.
Archbishop Rodian left the headquarters and went to the Confederation to bring back a child in person. When he returned to Greenland, the diehards in the church unexpectedly stopped, there must be something going on, but Areth couldn't find out, Rodean didn't deny it, but he didn't want to talk about it deeply. And the child he brought back is missing.
Rossi felt that this must not be a good thing.
He has a wonderful sixth sense, and maybe it won't be long before he has a ** annoyance.
