The town of Lake Onyx, located in the heart of the Duchy of Glen.

The burlap clothes and the biting cold wind from the far north made Lei Luo curl up and leave the church in a trance, thinking about how to face his father's disappointment when he returned home.

Depressed, sad and sad.

Before he knew it, Lei Luo walked to the door of Bob's bakery in the town and stood at the back of the queue.

Looking up, Lei Luo looked at the two-headed parrot in a cage at the entrance of the store.

"Hey, you rice bucket, you can't eat less, you know how to eat every day, it's because of you that I became so fat, you can't eat less!"

The parrot's other bird's head, which was eating breadcrumbs, shot back: "Shut up, you verbose ghost, beep Lao Tzu to peck you to death again." ”

was frightened by the eyes of the breadcrumb-eating bird's head, the bird's head who likes to nag shrank his neck, and after turning his head, he found that Lei Luo, who was looking at him in a daze, and said angrily: "Look at your father, haven't you seen such a handsome parrot!"

A black line appeared on Lei Luo's forehead.

Fortunately, there were fewer and fewer people queuing up to buy bread in front, and it was soon time to reach Leiluo.

The bakery owner was a tall, fat man with a beard on his cheeks, looking condescendingly at the bread buyer in front of him, who was Bob, the bright gentleman of the town, who had robbed him of his missionary credentials by giving gold coins this year.

In the glass window, there was soft and sweet white bread, Lei Luo's stomach was "growling", but he helplessly pointed to the piles of black bread on the side and said, "I want a kilogram of black bread." ”

Casually took the twenty copper coins handed by Lei Luo, and took out a cold and hard black bread, Bob glanced over to Lei Luo and glanced at the person behind him.

Lei Luo picked up the black bread and hugged it tightly in his arms, hoping to make it softer with his body temperature, curled up, and ran towards the house against the biting cold wind.

Squeak.

Closing the wooden door, Lei Luo took out the black bread in his arms and hung it on the wall, adding two sticks of wood to the fire, and the warm light made Lei Luo shiver twice.

Ahem, ahem.

The father on the sickbed looked at Lei Luo, tried to make a gesture of prayer, and said in a low voice, "Thank you God of Light for sending my son back safely." ”

"Father. ”

With a strong smell of blood, Lei Luo looked at his father, who was being treated by the doctor for bloodletting, looked at the doctor with focused eyes on the side, and said with concern: "Doctor, how is my father?"

Through a needle, the doctor released the blood from his father's body and flowed it into the wooden basin.

Ticking, ticking, ticking, the blood is constantly flowing, and it seems that only in this way can we take away the dirt from the body, create new blood through devout faith, and overcome the pain.

In this era, phlebotomy was the universal treatment for all village and town doctors, and it was also the only treatment for civilians in remote areas who could not afford to hire a priest to perform the blessing of light.

The doctor wiped the bloody needle and said calmly, "I have released the dirt from his body, and now it depends on whether he is religious enough for his faith in the Lord." ”

"Father will be healed!"

Lei Luo said firmly.

The doctor didn't say anything and left the hut with the silver coin.

Relo's father was a well-known hunter in the town, so he could spend silver coins for Relo to go to the church to read and write, and try to qualify as a missionary.

It's a pity that in the fall of this year, my father was attacked by a demonic beast, and the wound did not heal for a long time after returning, even if he asked the doctor for bloodletting treatment several times, but he still failed to heal the injury, and his body became weaker and weaker, and many people in the town secretly said that he was not religious enough to believe in the god of light.

It is precisely for this reason that Lei Luo begged the priest to make himself a missionary to prove that his father was a devout believer in the god of light.

"What are the results?"

The room was horribly oppressive, except for the crackling sound of a burning fire.

Faced with his father's inquiry, Lei Luo did not respond, not daring to look at his father's disappointed eyes.

After silently pouring out his father's dirty blood in the tub, Lei Luo returned to his room, closed the door, and sat on the bed, only then did he cry out sadly because of his guilt for his father, blaming himself for not becoming a priest and letting his father get the mercy of the God of Light.

Stretching out his hands, Lei Luo looked at the glimmer of warmth and light that gradually appeared on his palms, and his eyes were distracted.

The power of prayer is also called the power of light.

The God of Light is not an ethereal legend, every devout believer can feel its presence, and some clergy can even summon part of its power to descend into the world, which is commonly referred to as the power of light and blessing.

The only way to summon this power is through faith.

Constantly expanding believers, inspiring confused people, and joining the faith of light, you will be able to get more favor from the god of light.

Human beings live in a region called the Land of the Stars, and there are many principalities in the territory, in addition to the god of light, there are many of their own native gods, but they are all only gods of the god of light.

In the vicinity of many human principalities, there are still some familiar alien races, such as elves, dwarves, dwarves, barbarians, etc., but most of them have also been incorporated into the rules of the human system, integrated into each other, and their beliefs do not conflict.

But on the other side of the vast crucible desert, in a terrifying region known as the Land of Nightfall, lives a horrific group of heretical creatures that little humanity knows about it, except that it is the evil land where every pope will start a crusade when he ascends to the throne.

In addition, in the vast expanse of the sea, some pirates have spread that in the depths of the boundless sea where terrifying giant sea creatures are raging, there is a vast continent ruled by other intelligent beings, and some people even rumored to have seen a city floating in the sky, which was later considered nonsense.

However, it is true that the depths of the ocean are inhabited by some terrifying creatures that are unimaginable to ordinary people.

Awake from his distraction, the light in Lei Luo's hand gradually dissipated, and he was a little tired and gasped.

Mortals summon divine power, it is a great burden on the body, although the little divine power summoned by Lei Luo has almost no combat ability, and can not cast blessings, can only show the existence of the God of Light in front of some foolish people who have no faith, comfort the soul, and use it to spread faith, but it still makes Lei Luo feel a little sleepy.

From this, one can imagine the burden borne by successive popes in summoning the power of light.

Shaking his head to dispel his tiredness, Lei Luo took out the "Bright Festival" and read it over and over again, constantly strengthening his faith.

"The Creator of the God of Light created the kingdom of heaven, and the human beings living in the kingdom of heaven opened the box of original sin because of their desires, causing human beings to fall into the magic box and come to the world of the stars, and only through the selfless dedication of the light and the completion of self-redemption can they return to the kingdom of heaven......"

"Lei Luo!"

There was a call from his father outside the door, and Lei Luo, who was reciting the "Bright Festival", hurriedly got up and ran towards his father's room.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem. ”

My father sat upright on the bed and arranged a few things neatly on the bed.

By the light of the fire, Lei Luo could see these things, which were a book, a strange necklace, and a badge.

Lei Luo helped his father and complained, "You should rest more. ”

My father is a stubborn person, although his body has been thin and weak after several bloodletting treatments, and he is trembling even when he sits on the bed, the stubbornness in his eyes is still alive, and he said in a low voice: "My own body, I know by myself, it is impossible to survive this winter." ”

"No, the merciful God of Light will definitely pity your devotion to your faith, even if you are misunderstood by many people in the town, but the God of Light knows your piety!"

Relo has been doing everything he can to avoid the topic.

On the contrary, it was his father, who looked at Lei Luo's eyes with unprecedented softness and love, as if he was looking at his lover when he was dying seventeen years ago.

"Your mother is the most devout believer in the light in this world, and the most beautiful woman in this world, she gave everything to the god of light that she believed in, and in the last moments of difficult childbirth, she chose to give herself and sacrifice herself to leave all her love to you. ”

Lei Luo bowed his head and was silent.

For seventeen years, Lei Luo had never had a birthday, as it was his mother's memorial day.

"As for me...... Hehe, the mercy of the God of Light?"

Suddenly, his father's dignified and pious face turned into pain and self-deprecation, tears running down his face, and he looked at Lei Luo with guilt.

"How could the great God of Light have mercy on a descendant of a wizard with the dirtiest blood in the world?"

Sorcerer?

Didn't that kind of thing be crucified and burned to death by the church a long time ago and became a legend?

Lei Luo looked at his father in disbelief, is this the father who even has to thank the God of Light when he comes back on weekdays, and he is actually saying that he is a descendant of a wizard!

"You heard you right, Lei Luo, you and my ancestors are the same wizards who sowed the Black Death in the dark ages, raged terror, and were finally burned at the stake one by one by the church!"

Wow, wow, wow!

Lei Luo couldn't help but retreat, constantly denying his father's words, he was a devout disciple of the God of Light, how could he be involved with the wizard, this was impossible!

Legend......

It was a dark age when the earth was covered with death and terror, the wizards held the power that ordinary people could not resist, they collected the blood and eyes of children for evil experiments, they wantonly attacked all the clergy of the Church of Light, and in those dark and terrifying peak years, they even released the plague of death, the terrible Black Death raged, and once made humanity endangered!

Cities are littered with corpses, and there is not a single village in ten.

It was not until later, as one wizard after another was crucified by the Church, that they cursed everyone, until the flames burned their bodies and the mournful wails lingered, that humanity was able to survive and multiply, establishing one principality after another.

"It can't be!"

Lei Luo's face turned pale.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem! I also questioned my father, and he left only one sentence. ”

As his father coughed, his face flushed abnormally, and he struggled, "This will never be our home!"
