The Storm Rises Chapter 53 The Outrageous Cult of Light
The door was pushed open after Wang Yu activated the "voucher", and with a sense of spatial fluctuations, a light curtain was revealed behind the door.
"Just walk in and teach you how to enter the dark web directly in the outside world." Ziggy said, took a step forward and walked into the light curtain first, and the moment he touched the light curtain, Ziggy's figure disappeared into the corridor.
Wang Yu did the same, walked over and touched the light curtain with his hand, and the special magic power was transmitted from the light curtain, and it was combined and attached to the surface of Wang Yu's body under the drive of an extremely complex magic array, and a huge amount of magic power was mobilized to fill it, completing the complicated space transfer in an instant.
The next moment, just like when he was brought into the dark web by Shire, Wang Yu was no longer in that corridor as soon as his eyes broke.
Looking around, what appeared to be the interior of a church where he was now standing, a separate side hall with nothing in it, just a few chairs and a statue of the god of light.
Wang Yu stared at the statue for a few moments, and suddenly found a detail that he hadn't noticed before, the statues of the God of Light in these churches seemed to be different, and the statue he saw on the top of the priest's church in the nameless village before seemed to be different from the one placed here.
The statues of the gods in the small church in the nameless village are cheap, but they are basically clear what is carved.
Wang Yu remembered that the statue was carved with the image of a majestic old man, dressed in a white priest's robe, holding a thick holy book in his hand, and a halo on his head.
And Wang Yu stared at the sculpture in front of him, well, it seems that he is also an old man, and he is also carrying an aura.
However, there seems to be something wrong, Wang Yu stared at it for a long time, and always felt that there was no problem, but that different feeling could not be left behind.
At the same time, while Wang Yu had been staring at the statue of the God of Light, the door of this side hall was also pushed open.
Father Fang's sturdy and burly body walked in from the outside of the side hall, still with a gentle and friendly smile on his face.
Wang Yu glanced up at the boss, and finally realized that something was wrong, whether the muscles of this statue were a little too developed.
You can see the extremely well-shaped biceps muscles bulging high, the majestic latissimus dorsi that are so strong that they can't even be hidden by the loose priest's robes, and so on.
The statue of the god of light, which looked very similar to the sculpture in the chapel, looked like it was in good health, and its muscles and physique were clearly not of the same order.
Wang Yu felt a little strange, it stands to reason that all the god sculptures of the Divine Sect should be the same.
The statue of the goddess of wealth that I have seen before can be seen in every merchant who worships him, and it is obvious that it is exactly the same me, why is this statue of Father Fang still a little more fierce?
Father Fang walked into this side hall, and Zig took the lead in greeting, "Hello, Wang Yu has already registered with me, and he brought him here this time because he has some things he wants to tell you, and I hope you can take him to improve his strength later." ”
"Well, I will take Wang Yu to improve my strength in the future, so tell me what you want to tell me." Father Fang casually found a stool and moved it to sit under his buttocks, without the slightest shelf as the leader of a faction.
The first half of the sentence is for Zigger, and the second half of the sentence is for Wang Yu.
"Here's the thing..."Wang Yu didn't hesitate at all, and told Father Fang about the goblins he encountered on the way to Wangcheng by caravan.
There's nothing to add to it, it's just a very formulaic and rigorous one, and listening to it as a story will only make people drowsy, but as a report, it's perfect.
"So what I want to know is, what the hell are these Seventans trying to do, and can this lady of the night be trusted?" Wang Yu summed up the matter and asked his own questions to Father Fang, who was listening carefully to what Wang Yu said.
"Well, it's the right choice, you told me about this, and it really helped us a lot, Ziggy, to report on the problems that have arisen in the city wall area for a few months..."
After hearing this, Father Fang did not answer Wang Yu's question first, but after pondering for a while, he first asked Zige to report the problem in the city wall area.
"Alright, Father, the Night's Edge Foundation Investigation Team began a survey of the Walled Walls a few months ago, where there has recently been a rise of worship for Elfin, the Source of Life. ”
"According to the investigation, this deity belongs to the gods of folktales, the gods of the northern side, and the beliefs are mainly recorded in the story at the junction of Seventan and the country."
Wang Yu and Father Fang's narration Ziggy had also been listening, so after saying the above, Ziggy pushed his unilateral gold-rimmed glasses and narrowed his eyes.
"We haven't shifted our investigation to the direction of Seventan before, because it does look like a normal cult worship ritual."
"But Wang Yu, the folklore that you met called Eunice Unknown God came from Sewintan, and the commonality between this Elfin and the border between Sewintan and our country has indeed pointed the finger at Sewintan."
"Those worshippers in the walled area have been performing a special ritual called 'Life Return', and our investigators did find traces of Void fluctuations during their investigations. ”
"But these cult members haven't changed anything, so we've been reporting ritual failures, i.e., they haven't contacted the evil gods they believe in, but the goblin behavior you mentioned has put a question mark over the success of these guys' rituals."
"Because we haven't really directed our direction to the folklore of Seventan, we haven't considered the power and meaning of these gods."
"But the power shown by Eunice, the Lady of the Night, is consistent with the legend, so we boldly deduce whether this Elfin should also be consistent with the legend... No, I have to go back and check the information, Father Fang, Wang Yu, I'm missing, I have to go and take a look. ”
Zige's expression became more and more solemn, the amount of information Wang Yu brought back was not large, but the information contained was very amazing.
Ziggy had to go back and check what was going on about the Elfin, and inform more investigators to keep an eye on the sudden appearance of the cultists in the Walled Walls.
Apologizing for his loss, Ziggy walked briskly back to the entrance of the dark web, and the white glove in his hand flashed as he disappeared again.
"Ziggy is as reliable as ever." Father Fang sighed as he watched Zig leave quickly.
Wang Yu also nodded in agreement, this extremely literary temperament called the professor Ziggy did make Wang Yu feel a completely different feeling of reliability from Charles.
"Well, do you still have the steel cone on the goblin head you said and the emblem on the heart, maybe show me this thing and give you a more accurate answer." Father Fang looked at Wang Yu's side.
Wang Yu nodded, he had already prepared these before coming here to tell the information, the steel cone was broken, and then the other two were held by Wang Yu, one was given to the Goblin Chamber of Commerce for them to report themselves, and the Holy Emblem, Wang Yu kept two and gave them one.
Taking out a small square box from his personal pocket, Wang Yu opened it and put a steel cone and a divine emblem on the table in front of the stool where Father Fang was sitting.
Father Fang picked up the emblem and recited the prayer on it without hesitation, and his calm and majestic voice echoed in the side hall of this church, "Queen of the Night, Protector of the Darkness, praise be to your name, Lady of the Night, Eunice..."
Immediately, the steel cone corresponding to the Holy Emblem immediately reacted, and flew directly into the air after a flash of light, piercing Father Fang's Heavenly Spirit Cover at an extremely fast speed, but even Wang Yu could stop it, let alone think that the other Priest would work.
The "ding" steel cone collided with a layer of golden light wall with a semi-permeable membrane, making a loud sound, and I saw a cubic barrier directly constructed from the golden light on the table, trapping the steel cone in it.
The steel cone struggled hard inside, but to no avail, it was unable to break through the divine power barrier that Father Fang had built casually.
The priest made a clenched palm into a fist, and immediately, the barrier contracted, and the golden translucent light film wrapped around the steel cone that was constantly trying to break through the barrier and attack the priest, directly imprisoning it completely, and even the self-destruction of the final shattering sneak attack on Wang Yu before could not be done.
The priest moved the steel cone surrounded by golden light in front of him in front of him, and carefully examined it, and after a few seconds, the light fluctuated, and the steel cone shell directly turned into powder, completely falling apart and shattered to the point that it was impossible to see.
The shattered shell revealed the mass of things inside, and that thing was what Wang Yu was holding the steel cone tightly, and the steel cone flew into Wang Yu's spiritual space after directly shattering itself.
"Sure enough, it's this thing." The priest smiled, and what appeared in the priest's divine power confinement was a mass of runes that were rapidly beating and changing.
The runes on it are constantly changing and changing, which is dazzling, and if you give an analogy, it is the gibberish code on the computer that keeps changing and beating, which makes people feel dizzy when they look at it.
"What is this?" Wang Yu looked at the things in Father Fang's hand.
"It's a, a mark, a sign of the gods." Father Fang looked at the thing in his hand, and suddenly grasped his hand, and directly pinched this thing into nothingness.
"God's mark...?" Wang Yu didn't quite understand the meaning.
"It's equivalent to an observation point, you can see the gods, and the gods can see you, that is, you are more special, or too special, and there is no problem in talking directly to the gods."
"I feel terrible about this kind of pollution resistance." Father Fang shook his head and explained a little, although Wang Yu still didn't seem to understand.
"The gods are overly powerful individuals, and their every move will have a great impact on the world and others."
"As a soul between matter and nothingness, it is more susceptible to their influence, and the purpose of this mark is to confront your soul directly with the gods, who are weak but also have "divinity". ”
"Beings without intelligence may worship this god in a frenzy, and those who possess wisdom will either go completely insane or become fanatical believers."
"But these gods are gods who have been forgotten for too long, and they have become extremely weak, so they don't make people completely crazy, but will subtly affect their souls."
"Let them become His followers in a gradual process, and carry out their teachings, the guys in the Walled Quarters, probably that's what they are."
"That is, when we meet you, we completely ignore the pollution and talk directly to the gods and deities, so that we can understand the stakes."
"Otherwise, it may take me a lot of time to get in touch with the relationship between these issues and Seventan, obviously, these guys must be planning something, I'm glad to recommend you to join the Night Blade Special Ops Team, your abilities will play a big role!"
Father Fang affirmed Wang Yu's role, and then said, "And I will answer your question together, first of all, I find that you seem to have a bit of a misinterpretation of the concept of "faith". ”
The so-called "faith" is not to devote oneself wholeheartedly to accept everything of one's own gods, but to "recognize", and the "faith" you call is a fanatic believer in your understanding, they do dedicate all their body and mind to their gods, but the general faith only needs "recognition". ”
"That is, you agree with the power of your god, and you think that his teachings are okay, and you are willing to abide by them, and you are willing to spread them, which is actually faith, far less harsh than you know."
Wang Yu nodded, it seems that this is indeed the case, he has not studied religion deeply in this world, and his concept of faith comes more from those on the earth.
But those religions either talk about Amitabha Buddha or they just spend a whole day on my lord, my lord, who is indeed very much like a fanatic, and it seems that their understanding is indeed biased.
"And the most special thing is our Cult of Light, the most special of all the gods may be our God of Light, you will actually find that we don't talk about the God of Light, and we won't call His name too humbly."
Wang Yu nodded again in approval, the followers of the God of Light he saw were either kind big guys who dared to fight and kill, or they were like the priest in the nameless village who really loved the God of Light but did not act too humble.
But as a bishop of the royal city level, isn't it a little strange for his own god to say this...
"Because in fact, the God of Light seems to be just a conceptual thing, and I am even more of an unbeliever than a priest, do you know how I became this priest?"
Wang Yu shook his head.
"I got it, what kind of new paladin selection was carried out by the Bright God Sect back then, and I was also selected, relying on my own strength, a total of twelve were selected as paladins."
"Then the former bishop went down, and beat up the other paladins except me, just me, and fought with him for more than an hour, and then because I was young, he couldn't stand it first, so I became the bishop..."
"......" Wang Yu remained silent.
"We don't even have a person to believe in the God of Light, like other churches believe in Lady Fortune, Elenie, Lord of War, Kyle... These are all specific objects. ”
"But what we don't have in the Cult of the Illuminati, we even believe that we recognize that concept, be kind, be brave, and make this world and our lives better..."
"So the statues of our gods of light are all different, the general statues of the gods of light are all serious and majestic old men with a halo behind them, while mine is a much stronger version of the general statues."
"And some statues are a ball of light that resembles the sun, and some are beautiful and dignified goddesses, there are many, many more, and each believer has a different god of light in his heart."
"When I first became a bishop, I thought it was incredible that I was made a bishop. But later, when I really guided the divine arts, followed the recognition of the teachings of the Light God Cult, and really felt the warm golden light that radiated and released my own divine arts, I thought it was very good to believe in this god! ”
"Very, awesome." Wang Yu held back three words for a long time, and he really thought so.
He finally knew why he had a natural liking for the Cult of Light, and he knew it now.
This group of believers in the God of Light is bound to achieve great things, and he finally knows why this group of believers in the God of Light does not reject those who believe in other religions at all...
"I'm sure you understand what faith is. It's actually "recognition", so I can tell you, Eunice, the lady of the night, no problem, you can spread His faith, because He is not an evil god. ”
"As long as it's not an evil god, then there's no problem with faith, and evil gods will only bewitch you, tempt you and even forcibly distort your will, they want not only your faith, but also everything about you..."
"In this way, I will sign it for you, you can use this as a certificate, so that it will not be targeted as a cult" Father Fang said, while picking up a piece of paper from his desk, the nail divine power condensed, and the pen signature of Fang Shen's father that Wang Yu had seen appeared again.
Handing this piece of paper to Wang Yu, after Wang Yu took it, Father Fang nodded, "Now that I know the situation in the city wall area, you may have a mission involving this aspect later." “
"As a member of the Night Blade, your extremely special spiritual resistance is very important, but your hard power must also be satisfied, and the mid-level trainee knight is far from enough for your tasks and activities in the royal city."
"Even if Ziggy didn't ask me, I plan to take you to see it, come with me, this will be one of the fastest ways for you to improve your strength."
Father Fang stood up, led Wang Yu into the gap again, and began to walk through the corridor.
"Where are we going, Father?" Wang Yu was a little curious and asked directly.
"A library that's a bit big, and what you need is the knight's secret method inside, something called pseudo-submarine... Secret Method. Father Fang replied
(These are all imported plots, and some parts look a little funny, but I actually don't like water plots very much, so after importing them, the plot will continue to be serious and fast!) And I think this kind of Cult of Light is super cool, isn't it? )
