Lumian didn't respond immediately, because he was now an adventurer Louis who didn't know the Plateau language. Berry.

When Lugano finished translating Noelia's words, he smiled and nodded slightly, and said in Intis, "Please come in."

He said as he stood up.

Lugano, who had already arrived at the door, opened the door.

The visitor outside was indeed Noelia, a battle nun of the Order of Fertility, who was not wearing a black cape or a religious hat with white stripes on a black background, her thick black curls cascading down the surface of her brown leather armor, and her light blue eyes were looking forward to it.

Glancing at the two straight swords behind Noelia and the revolver at her waist, Lumian smiled and took two steps: "Thank you for helping."

Noelia, who had previously needed a translation from Lugano, responded in Intis: "How do you know I'm here to help?"

Lumian didn't hide his intentions for today's performance, and raised his hand to point to his head.

What he meant was that I reasoned out with my mind.

Of course, the thanks he just gave were actually thanks to the other party for helping him digest a little more "conspirator" potion.

Noelia's thicker eyebrows moved slightly, and she nodded approvingly.

She then turned her gaze to Lugano and Ludwig, as if to ask Lumien for advice on whether to let them avoid it, and Lugano had a look on his face that I didn't want to hear and I didn't want to get involved.

Lumian didn't embarrass him, and motioned for him to take Ludwig outside for a walk and buy some street food.

It wasn't until the older and the younger left the suite that Lumian said to Noelia, "You actually know Intis, you didn't speak a word last time."

Noelia smiled and replied, "We often have to take turns on those passes in the southern foothills of the Pilaez Mountains."

The Pilaes Mountains are the name given to the Daliege Mountains by the Kingdom of Fenerport, and the shepherds who turn from place to place always climb over it into the plains and pastures of the provinces of Gaya and other provinces.

Without waiting for Lumian to ask again, Noelia stroked the hair hanging from her ear and said with a smile, "It's not polite to have a lady standing and talking to you."

Lumian then invited Noelia to sit on the couch and chose the single sofa for herself.

Noelia looked at him and said to herself: "The sea prayer ceremony in Santa Harbor can be traced back to the late Quaternary period, with a history of more than a thousand years, which is enough to be called ancient, and the church once cleaned it up, moved all the corresponding insiders, and purified all the participants, but in less than a hundred years, someone here has begun to secretly hold a sea prayer ceremony."

She didn't say why she was talking about the history, it seemed like she was just sharing.

"Didn't clean up after that?" Lumien asked.

Noelia's red lips pursed lightly, and she said with a calm expression: "In this matter, the orders from above are often contradictory, sometimes we are asked to deal with it by the Rich Cultivators, and sometimes they signal to wait and see for a while, and this has been countersigned by the divine favor."

Lumian learned from the "Magician" lady, the curly-haired baboon research society and other channels that there are two major systems within the "Mother Earth God" church, the benefactor refers to the extraordinary person in the clergy who takes the two paths of "earth" and "moon", and the divine favor is the patron of the mother god in other ways, and the order given by the charismatic must be countersigned by at least one divine favor to be valid, otherwise it will be regarded as the product of the influence of evil gods and demons.

Lumian didn't understand why the Mother Earth Church had such a complicated system that looked like it was guarding against the benefactors, but he believed that it had its own reason.

After all that he had been through, he had become more and more aware of the lessons that some of the most inconspicuous rules in the occult world could hide blood.

"Are you a benefactor, or a divine favor?" Lumian thought for a moment.

"I am a god-favored one." Noelia didn't say how she did it.

Lumian bowed his head lightly and motioned for the other party to continue.

Noelia smiled and sighed, "After a long period of back-and-forth, we finally made the decision to acquiesce in the sea prayer ceremony, at least this will bring prosperity to Santa Harbor, and it will rarely affect people outside the participants, and it will not cause social turmoil."

"This was a long time ago, and I can only get a general picture of the situation through the ancient dossier, and I can't really grasp the specific reasons for convincing the hostess, the president, and the archbishop in the first place, in short, the sea prayer ceremony has become a traditional folk custom in Santa Port, so that the maritime trade and fishing related here have flourished."

Speaking of this, Noelia folded her arms and placed them on her chest, and said reverently: "Life is precious, and the harvest is gratifying."

Lumian's eyes were slightly condensed, and he asked directly, "Why did you change your prayer gesture?"

Is there a problem with this?

Noelia opened her eyes and said with a smile, "This is a prayer gesture that was often used in the past, but then the Mother Goddess has regained some of the authority she once lost, and she has to use a new prayer posture for formal occasions."

She stood up, spread her legs slightly, raised her hands high, and gave Louis a serious hand. Berry began to explain, as if in a mission: "The feet are connected to the benevolent earth, the palms of the hands are touching the spiritual sky, and in the middle is the radiance of life, which is the realm of the mother of all things."

Can you regain some of the authority you lost? Lumien was a little puzzled, but that's not the point.

Noelia sat back down and continued:

"We didn't try to figure out the core process of the sea prayer ceremony, but through monitoring year after year, we still got some things to do: "The 'Governor of the Sea' who has successfully obtained the favor of the sea has the power to manipulate this sea area and prevent shipwrecks from happening, but it seems to come at the cost of their lives and other things, and at the same time, the sea prayer ceremony will bring about the rapid reproduction and growth of all kinds of life in this sea area, so that the fishermen will inevitably get a good harvest, and in addition, it also has some manifestations of fate." The Handmaidens of the Sea's families are more or less lucky, and not just because of the preferential treatment they receive. ”

The effect of the sea prayer ritual sounds complicated....... it has not only the power of the sea realm, but also the embodiment of fate, reproduction, and harvest........ Lumian can't figure out why this is the case for a while.

Noelia's eyes were bright but soft, looking at Lumian's face and said, "The members of the Fisheries Guild, some of the villagers of Milo Village, and the participants in the core process of the Sea Prayer Ritual have all gained some magical powers, we have dealt with the kind of little demons you encountered before, and when we hunted down some criminals, we found that they can turn into a lizard-like monster."

Humanoid lizards? The kind of humanoid lizard that Paco family has? Lumian didn't expect to be able to get a clue about this matter from Noelia.

Noelia smiled, "Later we found out that people who can turn into lizard-like monsters have one thing in common."

"What do you have in common?" Lumian didn't hide his curiosity.

Noelia replied with a smirk, "Their mothers were once 'maids of the sea'."

The child of the "Handmaiden of the Sea"? Children of the sea? Which of Ruvio's siblings did I kill? Not only did he turn into a humanoid lizard, but he went crazy and seriously injured his own mother? Lumian instantly thought of a lot, and felt that he had mastered the essence of the Paco family's commission.

But he immediately had some doubts: if this is the case, it is not a secret to the family with the "Handmaiden of the Sea", why does the Paco family still want to hide it from Juan. A member of the Oro and other fishery associations?

Noelia didn't ask him what he thought, and said in a mocking tone: "After confirming that those lizard-like monsters are related to the sea prayer ceremony, we specially warned the members of the Fisheries Guild, and after that, there were no such criminals, they were all well disciplined and controlled, so, sometimes, I understand why the above acquiesced to the sea prayer ceremony being held in Santa Harbor, they are much more obedient than you adventurers, and it is easier to be restrained."

What Noelia is hiding is that I told you not to get involved with the Fishermen's Guild, and you broke into the mansion of the "Governor of the Sea" the next day and pointed a gun at Juan. Oro's head is much more troublesome than the people who pray for the sea ceremony!

Lumian smiled and declined to comment.

Noaria pondered for a few seconds, looked into his eyes and said, "I don't know what your purpose is in investigating the Sea Prayer Ritual, and I don't want to figure it out, I can only tell you that if your actions will endanger the entire Santa Harbor, we will directly intervene and expel you."

"On this premise, we may be able to provide some help."

Lumian picked up the straw hat next to him, pressed it to his chest and said, "It's my pleasure."

Noelia didn't say what the Mother Earth Church hoped to gain in this matter, and Lumian didn't ask.

The battle nun of the Order of Abundance stood up and walked to the door.

She put her left palm behind the doorknob, suddenly turned her body halfway, and asked with a smile in her eyes, "Do you want to have a child?"

Lumian was stunned for a moment and said, "Ma'am, will your topic be too jumpy?"

Noelia said with pity in her eyes and a little maternal brilliance: "According to our assessment, the danger level of the Sea Prayer Ritual requires at least one Sage or a Level 1' seal that can fully function for a short time to deal with, I don't know what you want to do, but after getting involved in this matter, it is not that you will be able to break away if you want to."

"Before that, did you think about keeping a descendant for yourself? I can help you. ”

Are all the reasons why your Mother Earth Church's battle nuns invite people for a one-night stand? Lumien was speechless for a moment.

Noelia said sincerely: "The offspring is the continuation of our life, the flowers wither and fall on the earth, in order to bloom more splendid scenery in the second year, don't you really consider leaving a descendant?"

"Not yet." Lumian replied with a grim expression.

Noelia said with a look of pity, "You can come to me whenever you figure it out."

With that, she opened the door and walked out.
