Chapter 349: Meeting Our Lady
Arka looked at the ring she was wearing.
"Galaxy."
"What?" Xia Daiti next to him asked a little confused.
"This ring." Arka shook the ring on his finger and said, "Its name is Galaxy." ”
It doesn't seem to have been named for it by Arka, as if he had chosen it for himself.
"Galaxy? Very accurate. Looking at the shape of the ring, Jason said.
As the ring was placed on his hand, the dreamcatcher and the mirror did not give any reaction.
Neither gives resistance to the same as resistance. Nor is there a jump between adaptations.
It was as if there was nothing, silence.
Arka raised his hand, and the starlight from nowhere gathered on his hand. A long sword made of starlight was held in his hand like this.
One after another, missile-like starlight flickered, appearing next to him.
With a long trail of trails, it flies around like a meteor.
"How's the power?" Jason asked impatiently.
The starlight that the Arka controller was flying around seemed to be preparing to test his power. Xia Daiti next to him hurriedly grabbed his shoulder.
"Don't experiment here...... We can't afford it. ”
Hearing this, Arka looked at the smooth stone walls around him and nodded silently.
Indeed, if they smashed a few gaps in this place, they would really be destitute.
"Let's go out first."
With that, Arka led the group out of the chamber.
The pastor who had brought them over walked ahead again and led them away.
This time, however, he led them to the hall of the church.
Before Arka could ask, the priest said, "Come with me, Lord Arka." Virgin...... I want to see you. ”
"Oh, good...... Wait, who are you talking about? ”
Alka, who was about to continue to follow, immediately stood in place, looking incredulous.
He wondered if he had just had auditory hallucinations.
I couldn't help but control it with clean water and cleaned my ears.
The faces of the companions around him were also a little dull.
The first thing that everyone thought of was impossible.
Jason gouged out his ears to make sure he wasn't plugged in, so what did he just hear?
The priest who led the way turned to look at Arka with mixed emotions in his eyes, but repeated it anyway: "Our Lady, I want to see you." ”
"Holy Mother." Alka stuttered a little.
He always thought about when he would have the opportunity to meet the Virgin Mary.
Hua Xian also said that it was best to meet the Virgin after he finished making the treasure, but he didn't expect that the Virgin would see him just after he finished making it.
But now that he really wants to see the Virgin, he is not in a nervous mood.
The pastor stopped talking, and led them to the largest prayer hall in silence.
In front of him is a statue of the Virgin, erected.
The priest looked at his companions behind Arka, "Everyone, come with me. ”
The crowd nodded, glanced at Arka's back, and followed the priest away.
Arka was beneath the statue of the Virgin, and he could clearly hear the beating of his heart.
The heartbeat is getting faster and louder.
The palms of my hands began to sweat slightly.
"Suck ~ ...... exhale"
Arka took a deep breath and calmed himself down a bit.
After all, we have to meet each other, which is an honor that other believers dare not think of.
Cross your hands in front of your chest.
Close your eyes and bow your head.
The mouth is silently reciting a prayer in praise of the Blessed Virgin.
Suddenly, Arka felt a wheat-scented breeze pass by him.
There is a coolness, and there seems to be a hint of warmth.
Feeling such a change, he immediately opened his eyes.
By the moment he opened his eyes, his surroundings had completely changed.
He no longer seemed to be in the hall of the church, but in a field of wheat full of gold. These golden wheat fields reached his waist.
Patches of ears of wheat swayed in layers like waves in the breeze.
This is a field of wheat and a sea of ears of wheat.
Looking into the distance, the golden rice fields stretch as far as the eye can see.
The autumn breeze is blowing.
Arka stood still, his face full of confusion.
The change was a bit too sudden, but he probably knew that it was the Virgin's Divine Domain.
After all, the harvest and the ears of wheat are all symbols of the Virgin.
Suddenly, there was a childlike laughter.
Arka walked in the direction of the laughter, not feeling tired. I kept walking forward, and laughter came from time to time.
The voice is full of innocence, which is the innocence of a child.
It seems to foreshadow the other areas of Our Lady's duties, which are conceived and grown.
Finally, after walking for some time, he saw the sound of ears of wheat swaying in front of him.
Something is running in the middle of the wheat field?
Suddenly, a figure smashed into his lap, and Arka looked down.
It was a child who accidentally hit him in the leg.
Arka looked down at the little girl with a pair of braids on her legs, and she was smiling brightly at herself with her mouth bared and missing two teeth.
"Hee-hee, Brother Arka, you're back."
"Brother? Me? Arka looked confused and crouched down to look at the little girl in front of him.
He pointed at the little girl and then at herself.
"Look, I'm supposed to be my brother."
"Slightly!" The little girl pulled her cheek and grimaced at Arka.
Then he took Arka's hand and ran forward.
"Come with me, mom is waiting for you."
In this way, Arka was led by the little girl and ran forward.
In order to match the little girl's size, he had to hook his waist and walk briskly.
Then there was more laughter from children, men and women, and faint cries.
Then more children, both men and women, came out of the wheat field, and they looked at Alka.
Some of their faces showed timidity, some showed curiosity, and many more showed surprise.
Several of the boys were unusually bold and ran straight around Arka, hugging him by the legs.
"You've grown this big?"
"How did you grow so big? Teach me! ”
"Carry me quickly."
"Babble, babble!"
All sorts of voices were noisy in Arka's ears.
"Quiet, you troublemakers."
A gentle and touching voice came, and the surrounding children immediately closed their mouths.
Run in the direction where the voice came from.
Let the figure hug them.
Alka looked.
In the wheat field ahead, a woman appeared at some point.
She stood on top of the wheat field, the ears of wheat that swept like waves, swaying without wind on her legs.
She is only about 1.7 meters tall and wears a conservative wheat dress.
The golden hair was braided into a long, thick braid that fell from the back.
The whole person is unusually plain and does not have any luxury.
But looking at her, no one will feel that she is not noble enough.
She took the little girl Arka had brought here in her arms, and then stood up.
Alka, only then did he see her face clearly.
It looks like a young girl in her teens and twenties, and a beautiful woman in her thirties and forties.
It looks unusually beautiful and moving, but it gives people a sense of ordinary.
Contradictory looks appeared on her face like this, but it didn't make people feel disagreeable. On the contrary, it should be so.
With a gentle smile on his face, he exudes an approachable and friendly temperament.
The beautiful appearance makes people not have any blasphemous thoughts.
She hugged the little girl in her arms and rubbed her face against her face twice, making the little girl giggle.
Then she patted the troublesome boy below: "Be quiet, you naughty people." ”
These children stood quietly around, pushing each other from time to time and making small movements.
She looked up at Arka, smiled softly, and beckoned to Arka.
Arka walked slowly over to her.
Bow your head slightly.
"Stone Mother."
Then I felt the touch of Shi Mu gently stroking and patting on my head.
"This ring is not for you, it will block your path. The manifestations of the Holy Grail and the Scepter Fit are interconnected. The absence of any manifestation means that the Scepter suppresses the Holy Grail, and they are actually mutually exclusive. ”
Hearing this, Arka nodded in confusion.
I see.
No wonder there was a hunch, it turned out to be for this reason.
If you want to become a god, if you want to go further, you must have a suitable treasure.
"Everything in the world can be intermingled and exist in this world, but things must also be combined with each other. Otherwise they are unfit and opposite. ”
This is how Our Lady taught.
"But if you continue to use this ring, it won't matter, as long as you don't try to penetrate and want to take full control of it."
Arka nodded.
"It's good that you've got a deep connection to the world, and you're doing what you want to do.
But it's not easy, even very difficult. ”
Arka could understand what the Stone Mother was talking about, and he couldn't help but ask, "Why don't the four gods try to put the world back together?" ”
This can be regarded as his biggest doubt.
According to what they had learned from their previous casual chats with the dwarves. I don't know about the other gods, but both the Stone Mother and the Sea God may already have the ability to recreate the world.
They are powerful beings with a certain degree of popularity in the entire astral plane.
But they don't have the ability to put this broken world back together, which shouldn't be.
Hearing Alka's question, Shi Mu touched the head of the little girl in her arms, looked at the sky and said, "It's not that we can't do it, but the world doesn't allow it, and she rejects us."
Because it is we, the beings, who have turned our backs on the 'mothers' who have given birth to us and raised us. ”
Although Shi Mu only said something simply, Arka instantly understood the meaning.
That's what it means.
"So, there's no one who can help us with this, can they?" Arka asked, looking at the Stone Mother.
Shi Mu shook her head: "No, only the gods of the old days will be ostracized, and the new gods are also the new hope of the world." ”
"In other words, there is a chance that it can be done, right?"
"Of course, it's just hard, it's hard to do."
Arka nodded, as long as there was hope. Listening to the meaning of the stone mother, it is already clear that the first condition you need to piece together the world is to become a god.
Enough strength is required.
Shi Mu looked at Arka and said lightly: "When you need help in this regard, any church of the four gods will be willing to help you, provided that it is indeed effective. ”
"Alright, the time limit is almost up, let's get out of here."
Hearing Shi Mu's last words, Arka nodded, and her figure disappeared in place in an instant.
"Will he succeed?" The little girl who was held in Shi Mu's arms asked.
"Maybe, there will always be infinite possibilities in the future, and neither will you."
Arka's real-life body opened his eyes, and he looked at his arm.
It's back.
I just really met Shi Mu and saw her true appearance.
Kind, affable.
Some of them left the prayer hall in a daze, looking at Xia Daiti and the others standing outside the gate.
The moment Arka came out, everyone's eyes were on him.
"Let's go first."
With that, Arka quickly left the church with the crowd.
There was some silence along the way.
Jason and Shadetti kept their eyes on Arka.
Feeling the sight of the two, Arka said helplessly: "Okay, if there is anything you want to ask, just ask, if you can say it." ”
"What does she look like?" Xia Daiti asked impatiently.
The crowd pricked up their ears.
Although this is not the first time Arka has seen the gods, they have also seen the flower fairy appear in reality before.
But it was only a fallen god that he had never heard of, and the only one he had heard of later.
But the Mother of Stone is different, she is one of the four gods.
He is the faith that Shadetti and others have embraced since childhood.
"Beautiful and gentle like ...... Mother's the same. Arka described it simply.
"Did she say something to you?"
Jason asked.
Hearing this, Arka scratched at his head.
If you think about it, it seems that you really didn't say anything very important to yourself.
It's more like answering some of Arka's doubts so far, warning him that some information that may not be needed now, but may be useful later.
"He told me that the galaxy wasn't for me, and told me not to try to control it deeply.
They also told me some of the reasons why they weren't able to piece together a fix for the world. And if you need help with things related to repairing the world, you can directly find any of the Four-God Churches, and they will be happy to help. ”
"The reason? What's with? Hearing this, Julia immediately asked.
Arka briefly explained what he knew.
"So that's the reason? The world is rejecting the perpetrators of the past. ”
That sounds reasonable, too.
The crowd talked all the way and soon returned to the ship.
Arka sat by the flower bed and looked at the ring on his hand.
Although I won't try my best to control it and make it my own, it's no problem to use it at this stage.
To be honest, just because of the sudden summoning of the Holy Mother, Arka didn't have the heart to experience the power of this scepter-level treasure.
Instead of resting, everyone was watching Arka from the deck.
"At this stage, I am not familiar with the control of this treasure, it seems that because of the relationship of strength, the range of abilities that can be used is also limited."
Arka sensed the artifact as he spoke of some of the conclusions he had come up with.
After all, the fourth stage is the minimum standard for being able to use the scepter level. At a minimum, if you try to be able to use this treasure in depth, it is obviously impossible.
A faint starlight appeared around Alka, and it looked very interesting as if it was some kind of starlight effect that appeared around Arka.
Then Alka slowly floated into the sky under the support of the surrounding stars.
On the whole ship, only Xia Daiti and Arka could fly.
Xia Daiti relied on himself to turn into a beam of light, rushing into the sky at an extremely fast speed. Arka flies in the sky by imitating winged creatures.
Then Arka floated down and stood on the deck.
"What's wrong?" Xia Daiti looked at Arka and came down after a moment, and asked suspiciously.
"I'm not skilled, I don't dare to fly."
He just flew in mid-air and felt that he seemed to be a little shaky and couldn't control it, and if he wanted to really fly as fast as a meteor in the sky, he had to be skilled.
Then the starlight that seemed to be like a star melted into Arka's fist, and he flicked it lightly.
The power of the starlight flew out and smashed on the nearby seashore.
The splash was minimal and didn't make much of an impact.
But such a change has made everyone take a fancy to it.
This means that the power is very concentrated, which means that it is extremely penetrating and fast enough.
There are even hidden properties.
Arka attacks his own punches on deck.
This time he played melee instead of ranged.
His attacks are so fast that he can even create a trajectory in the air that looks like a meteor.
"The attack speed increases, and the attack power increase seems to have some kind of peculiar attribute."
Arka couldn't quite understand what kind of special effects this starlight-like attribute could bring to the attack.
Then I looked at the patrols walking around the warehouse, and how the port was running even at night.
Ships come and go around.
Obviously, it's not a very good place to test it.
"Forget it, wait for a few days to familiarize myself with it, and then we'll see how far I can go."
Proficiency in the use of this scepter-level treasure is not something that can be achieved in a short period of time.
The one that has just been used by Alka is just the most basic and simple way to use it.
He had to test it out according to the condition of the ring and the information in his mind.
A few people next to him nodded.
"It seems that this treasure really doesn't fit you right now." Simon said with a smile.
Hearing this, Arka nodded in agreement.
It's not easy, indeed.
I didn't have that handy feeling, it was a bit like when I first mastered the Dream Catcher.
It will take a long time to become familiar with and then become proficient in the abilities that this treasure brings.
