Chapter 12: Seeing the Divine Arts
"Your Highness!"
Everyone saluted together, and Jerry was stunned for a moment, and then bent down.
I didn't have much impression at a glance before, but I thought Her Highness was very beautiful, but now after seeing it again, Jerry felt that ...... It's really beautiful!
A gaze was like a sharp sword poking at Jerry's face, and when he saw it, it turned out to be a fourth-level warrior Adam, and he immediately understood what was going on with the other party.
"Adam loves Catherine!"
But you don't have to ask to know that this guy must be unrequited love.
Even the Holy Knights under the command of the Holy Maiden are several levels behind the Holy Maiden herself, and according to the usual style of the temple, if this guy makes a confession or something, I am afraid that the next day he will have to turn into a handful of fine ash floating in the wind.
After discovering such a new world, Jerry became curious about another question that he had never thought of: can a saint get married and have children? This question is really not introduced in the book......
No one knew that Jerry, who had a stern face, was thinking about what was going on in his stomach, and now that Her Royal Highness had arrived, they didn't dare to talk as casually as before.
Adam kept his head down, and as the most powerful warrior in the team besides Andrew, he was also quite famous for his bravery. But in front of Catherine, he didn't even dare to raise his head, because he longed and was afraid that the secret in his heart would be known by the other party.
But just then, he heard Catherine call his name.
"Adam, thank you for your hard work. ”
Catherine spoke softly, which to others sounded to be the usual tone of Her Highness the Holy Maiden, but to Adam, he felt that Catherine was so gentle only when she spoke to herself.
He didn't dare to give a salute, and said in a loud voice that he should do it, with the brilliance of God, and his pious heart and fearless courage made him always guard before the saint.
This oath-like remark opened Jerry's eyes again, and he said that he hadn't found out that this guy was so eloquent before, but he felt that if he was replaced, he would definitely be able to say better than Adam, because when you say this kind of thing, you have to stare affectionately into the other person's eyes, and pinch your thighs with your head down.
Catherine smiled faintly and said don't move, and Adam immediately closed his eyes.
Jerry was still confused, if he hadn't lived in Edel for many years, he would have thought that Her Highness was preparing to give a kiss.
But apparently there are no humans in this world who are qualified to bear the kiss of a saint, and Andrew's sacred expression also shows that things are not so bloody.
Suddenly, Jerry's gaze froze.
He saw a soft white light gradually floating in Catherine's hand, which was clearly the divine power he had felt during the selection of the priests, the power that belonged to the gods and could only be borrowed by the priests.
Catherine's lips were twitching slightly, and although he couldn't make out the quick syllables, he could guess that Her Highness was clearly chanting a spell. The divine powers that are growing stronger and stronger and that have made her holy and beautiful are the magic she is using!
Divine power, magic, priest!
Jerry was dumbfounded, completely stunned by the facts in front of him.
He never imagined that this delicate girl, Catherine, who he regarded as a temple vase in his heart, turned out to be a priest he wanted to become day and night!
Of course, apart from the Pope and the bishops who are said to have direct communication with the God of Light, the most powerful priests below cannot be compared to the Holy Maiden in status.
But it didn't matter to Jerry at all, what he longed for was the power of the priest, and now for the first time, that power was truly in front of him.
Adam's injuries were severe, with a broken bone in one arm and a wound that stretched from his shoulder to his waist, making it difficult for him to even stand up.
However, in this way, the serious injury that Jerry thought could be hung up by carelessness quickly recovered under a beam of light that suddenly fell from the sky.
In a matter of seconds, when the beam disappeared as it came, Adam's motionless arm could move slightly, as if the broken bone had been completely rejoined.
And the extremely terrible-looking wound on his body has healed to the point that only a shallow reddish line remains, which is the newly grown skin!
Syllable!
No one noticed Jerry clapping his hands hard, and even if anyone did, he didn't care, just that he was startled by Catherine's healing.
Isn't it the case that ordinary people see magic and even magic for the first time, and it's already good for Jerry to be excited and smoke himself, and most people have already fallen on the ground and shouted miracles at the first time.
Boom!
Thankfully, no one heard Jerry swallow, otherwise they would have understood that they had gone wrong.
This kid is shocked, he is clearly greedy, his eyes are greedy, and his heart is even more greedy!
There is not only one development path for the priest line, and the quasi-priests who have reached a divine contract degree of 6 or more are called apprentices, and the apprentices can be promoted to believers after a certain amount of practice and pass the guò assessment, and they can learn some of the lowest level of magic at this stage.
When a believer reaches level 6, they will have two different paths for them to choose from, namely the Wise Priest who focuses on aggression and the Priest who focuses on auxiliary healing.
This was what Jerry had learned about the hierarchy of priests, although he had heard that there were still higher ranks above the sages and priests, such as the legendary bishop, but he didn't know exactly what it was.
Now it seems that Catherine should follow the priest route, and Jerry longs for the powerful sage route, but in fact, the two routes are not really in conflict.
The priest is still a sage, but he only uses the name of his profession to reflect the difference in the direction of his main attack, but in essence, it is the use of magic and magic. After all, people's energy is limited, except for the kind of genius that is rare in a hundred years or even a thousand years, cultivating both is tantamount to self-destruction of the future, so there are different routes to specialize in one field.
Jerry obviously didn't have this kind of doubt, he hadn't even entered the door, it didn't make sense to think about priesthood or sage, he just needed to get the most basic method to become a believer. As for the question of the future route, of course, we will talk about it later, and being good at taking one step at a time is an excellent spiritual quality of an optimist.
Catherine finished casting the healing spell and smiled faintly at Adam's words of gratitude, as if the magic was just a trivial matter.
Then, just as Jerry felt the murderous gaze pressing over him, Catherine turned to him and said, "Thank you, Jerry Harry, for making you a good fighter." ”
Jerry grinned and naturally blurted out, "It's nothing, I'll try." ”
Catherine's expression froze for a moment, but she immediately regained her gentle smile, and without saying anything more, she walked straight to the carriage.
It seems that he only came out this time to treat Adam's injuries, and as for the two temple warriors who fought with Adam against the attackers, it was because the difference in strength was too great, so he returned to the arms of the gods at that time.
In fact, Jerry regretted it as soon as he spoke, and his personality made him not too restrained even in the face of Catherine, the holy woman, a little at first, but now it is completely gone.
The saint is also a human being, and this deep-rooted, but disrespectful idea in his heart naturally cannot be mentioned to others.
But he also knew that the answer just now was too casual, and he wanted to add two more sentences, but people didn't care at all. Maybe in Catherine's heart, he is just a country boy who doesn't know the height of the sky.
"Uh! Why is this guy even more fierce, it used to be like he was going to kill someone, but now it's like he wants to eat people......"
Jerry looked up to meet Adam's gaze, startled, he couldn't remember what he had offended him. If anything, it is understandable that Adam would feel distressed as a poor unrequited lover.
But that was the previous thought, and now that he knows that Her Highness the Holy Maiden actually has the strength of a priest, Jerry himself doesn't feel anything reckless.
In terms of hierarchy alone, the priest is on the same level as the defender, which means that Catherine's strength is far stronger than the others here, if not as strong as Andrew.
How is it possible that such a strong person is afraid of being hit?
Maybe even the horror toxin that was blocked by her own mistake, Catherine didn't pay attention to it at all, otherwise how could she be so calm and calm.
Thinking so, Jerry first stood near Andrew, and then glared back unceremoniously.
Andrew was almost amused, and Jerry's little caution could not hide from him, this is knowing that he didn't dare to do anything in Adam, so he was emboldening himself.
Andrew looked at Adam and said, "Adam, that's enough!" Although Jerry's actions at that time were reckless, he also helped His Highness the Holy Maiden, so don't be angry. ”
"Hmph, with His Highness's strength, where can he do more. ”
Adam didn't dare to contradict Andrew, muttered softly, and then simply ran out on patrol, which made Jerry speechless, as if he had eaten a fly. If he hadn't been able to beat the other party, he really wanted to catch up and beat that guy hard.
But now, he can only endure it.
Andrew shook his head and said to Jerry: "Actually, Adam is not bad, he is just too loyal to His Highness, and thinks that you have offended His Highness, so don't care too much." ”
Jerry nodded, he didn't take it to heart, a doomed unrequited love gradually distorted his personality into paranoia...... Thinking about it this way, he felt that Adam was quite pitiful, and he didn't remember the villain.
Around the campfire, the few Templars who didn't patrol were still as respectful as before, and Jerry thought that they were only doing this because of Catherine, but now he realized that their courtesy was also due to Andrew.
After all, they now knew that their captain was not only a powerful warrior, but also a defender of a higher level. It was a height that they might have spent their entire lives to, but still couldn't climb.
"Captain, what happened ten years ago, and why wouldn't the temple meddle in this?"
Jerry's question caused Andrew to squint slightly, and the faces of the other Templars changed.
