Chapter 45: Dust in the Beam

The light inside the house was dim because all the doors and windows were closed.

Moreover, Trinidad was only a knight after all, and his mansion was not particularly large, and hundreds of people swarmed in, and soon the water inside was crowded.

Everywhere Adele looked, there were human figures, she was short, and she stood at the back, even if she stood on tiptoe, she could only see the back of the person in front of her.

However, a strong lizardman soon noticed her inconvenience, and took the initiative to bow down and motioned for the priestess to sit up.

Seeing this, the priestess waved her hand again and again, but the lizardman did not give her a chance to refuse, and when she refused to come up, she directly carried her to her shoulder.

Adele let out a sigh of surprise, and then noticed that her vision suddenly widened.

Only then did she notice that the lizards looked messy, but in fact they stood quite well, and most of them were relatively short women and children in front, while the taller ones took the initiative to stay behind.

That is, she came too late, otherwise she would probably be pushed to the front by the lizardmen.

At the front of the crowd was a stone wall with a white cloth hanging from it.

The priestess looked at it with some confusion, thinking that this was all there was to it, and the place where the Shuangxiu Sect was held was inevitably too shabby.

There were no altars, no delicate idols, no flowers and beautiful glass ornaments, not even the white cloth with the Order's emblem on it.

And with so many people crammed into a small room, even breathing became a little stuffy.

Adele already regretted coming here, and she was thinking about how to leave politely, when the next moment suddenly heard a melodious and passionate music in her ears.

The priestess's gaze raced again over the room, but she could not find the musician who was playing the music.

Adele's face couldn't help but show a look of confusion.

At this moment, a fat lizardman suddenly began to sing.

And this time he actually used the lingua franca of the continent of Bratis, so Adele could also understand his lyrics.

Just listen to him sing.

Yes! Friend! Are you still overwhelmed by the heavy work? / Come and join us and join the ocean of happiness and joy! /Saturday!

The lizardmen sang together.

Saturday!

The fat lizardman continued to sing.

Saturday it is merciful / Brilliant light shines on the earth! / Our hearts are full of enthusiasm / Come to your temple / Your power will make people / Eliminate all divisions! / In your light / Brothers in the four seas!

Chorus: Your power can make people / Eliminate all differences! / In your light / Brothers in the four seas!

Tenor Quartet:

It comes from a distant kingdom of God! / Thousands of miles away / Sow the seeds of civilization and happiness! / Whoever believes in it / will have a good life! / Whoever does not believe in it / can only cry in winter!

Chorus: All who believe in it / will have a good life! / Whoever does not believe in it / can only cry in winter!

…………

This Saturday hymn is based on Li Yu's "Ode to Joy".

The original piece is from the fourth movement of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.

Beethoven had always admired Schiller, and when he was young, he wanted to compose for Schiller's "Ode to Joy", and his Ninth Symphony was brewing for twenty years, experiencing the glory and disillusionment of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic era.

The original song itself conveys the beautiful ideal of building a free and joyful new world, which perfectly fits the teachings of the Shuangxiu Religion, and can be used directly with a slight change.

Moreover, the Ninth Symphony is the pinnacle of Beethoven, a generation of musical giants, and its artistry is unquestionable.

Adele was born into a noble family and has received a certain amount of artistic influence, so she can also hear the extraordinary music more than the lizards.

In contrast, the Church of the Silver Moon also has a lot of hymns to Pisia, and in fact every year the church invests a lot of money in the wonderful bards who are required to go around chanting the glorious deeds of the goddess.

Good-looking romance

But even the hymns written by the bards were not as good as the one she heard now.

Especially when the lizards sang in unison, the high morale almost tore off the roof, and even Adele, an outsider, could feel the power contained in it.

And it was evident that the majestic movement was not played by more than one instrument, but the priestess craned her neck and did not find the instruments or the players.

It's strange, could it be that this voice really came from the kingdom of God?

Thinking of this, Adele's body shook again.

As the song ended, Hera turned on the projector in front of her according to Li Yu's explanation.

A beam of white light hit the curtain.

Flying dust could also be seen in that light.

Before the priestess could fully recover from the shock of the symphony chorus, she was shocked again.

This is...... Light?

Speaking of which, she had heard rumors before that the Merlin Prophet could manipulate thunder and light.

But the former Adele didn't believe much in these rumors, how could mortals have the power of gods?

But now, the scene that happened in front of her eyes once again broke her cognition.

And what made her even more incredible was that a few seconds later, the upper body of a man dressed in black appeared on the white curtain.

The priestess couldn't help but let out a scream! Reaching out and quickly covering his eyes.

It's horrible! In Adele's opinion, a person is only half of his body left, and then he is dead, not to mention that the person's body is still hanging on the wall.

Everyone said that the lizardmen were fierce and murderous, and they were right.

No matter how hospitable these people are, they all have a sense of violence hidden in their bones.

Then the priestess felt a hand gently pat her on the back, as if to reassure her.

Adele looked out carefully through the cracks between her fingers, and saw that many lizardmen in the vicinity were looking this way, looking for the source of the screams.

When they saw the priestess, many people couldn't help but chuckle.

The priestess could tell that there was no malice in the laughter, it was just amusement, and some of them pointed in the direction of the white cloth.

The priestess had the audacity to glance there again, and saw that the half-figure was still alive, and there was no pain on his face, but he was talking.

As he spoke, there was a lizardman next to him, who was also only half-cut and translated, but Adele couldn't understand what the two were saying, but she could already roughly guess who the figure in black was.

—The Prophet Merlin, who was preaching on that white cloth.
