Chapter 43: Another Piece!?
Wayne looked to the left-hand side.
It was a two-man tall black stone door, flanked with the gilded emblem of the Church of the Dawn, a pattern of the sun.
Faintly, a whimpering wail came from inside the door.
“…… Please forgive me......"
“…… The glory of the Seres family was ruined by ......"
“…… Dawn, O all-knowing and all-powerful ......"
Seeing him stop, Carly asked suspiciously, "Wayne?" ”
"What is this, what is it?" Wayne pressed the necklace on his chest and pointed to the black stone door, "I think I hear someone crying." ”
Carly glanced at him, grabbed his arm, and walked briskly deeper into the porch.
Wayne was pulled by her, "Hey, what's wrong?" ”
"There's a confessional,"
Carly leaned into his ear and whispered, "Only those who have broken the covenant of the dawn will go to that place to repent." ”
Confessional?
"No wonder."
Wayne secretly wrote it down, regretting it or not he didn't know, but there were indeed fluctuations in taboos there.
It wasn't until the two of them walked out for a distance that the black stone door quietly opened a crack, and a bloodshot eye pierced through the darkness, staring at their backs cruelly.
[You are locked by Genrich Serres' killing intent.] Evaluation: The scum actually targeted the weak chicken. Reward: +1 Survival Point. 】
Wayne was stunned for a moment, glanced behind him, and saw the blackstone door closed.
Serres, the man in the confessional?
Scum?
Wayne pouted, his strength couldn't even compare to that of a weak chicken, and he still wanted to kill?
Weak chickens are also graded.
The two walked in the quiet porch, and the sound of crisp footsteps echoed melodiously.
Sunlight shone in through the stained glass, and they were dressed in a colorful coat.
"Every time I walk here, I feel small,"
Carly looked at the mural on the side of the porch, her clear eyes showing reverence, "No matter how epochs change, the dawn will shine in the end. ”
Wayne was also looking at the murals, and unlike Carly, he was only interested in what was on them.
The murals seem to depict a legendary battle.
Dressed in golden armor emblazoned with the Holy Emblem, the Church of the Dawn fights against a group of strangely shaped monsters.
The monsters, with goat's heads, slender limbs, and whip-like weapons in their hands, fought the church in a terrible battle.
In the end, the Church of the Dawn won a crushing victory, and all that was left of the battlefield was an angel with wings on his back, and a corpse lay crookedly around him.
"This is the Battle of the Guardians of the Dawn of the Fourth Age," Carly noticed his gaze, "and in that battle, the entire Church of the Dawn was killed or wounded ...... more than half"
Wayne pointed to the goat monsters and asked, "What are these monsters?" ”
"The professors in the school, as they call them, are a very powerful race."
"Are they still there?"
"It's gone, and it is said that after this battle, it has not been seen again."
Carly looked at him and said seriously, "Wayne, without the light of dawn, order will collapse, and the world will suffer even greater disasters. ”
“…… Well, what are we going to do in the chapel? Wayne was uncomfortable with her gaze, so he had to change the subject.
He's here on a mission, but he doesn't really believe in the dawn.
Moreover, he is just a weak chicken, he wants to live well, and his long-term goal is just to get the liaison officer down.
What kind of world, order, what does it have to do with him?
Carly's mouth opened slightly, did she say something wrong?
When the previous guide said this, the blood of those new believers boiled, and they wanted to become the guardians of the dawn immediately......
Wayne looked at her expression and asked suspiciously, "Is it difficult to answer?" ”
“…… There, where we usually worship, are the most devout believers of the dawn. ”
"The most pious? Then I shouldn't be eligible to go there, right? ”
Wayne had already wanted to slip away, the location of the forbidden object had been found, and it was too risky to continue to stay.
"Just come with me."
Carly grabbed him and swerved into the room deep in the porch.
"Huh?"
Wayne was pulled by her like this, trying to break free only to find that the arm was not moving.
Her powers?
Transcendent...... Come to think of it, how could Euan not teach her to be a transcendent being if he treasured his daughter so much?
However, this strength really doesn't match her appearance.
At least it has to be Sister Lacey, right?
Compared to the main hall of the church, the chapel is much smaller.
There are no huge pillars, no bright chandeliers, no vaults full of frescoes, just warmth and peace.
Several portraits hang on the surrounding walls, and under the portraits is an altar full of candles.
In the center of the chapel is a three-meter-high statue.
Strangely, the statue's face is blurry, but it doesn't look rough or weird, but rather has a sacred feel.
The body is covered in ornate robes embroidered with gold ornaments, and the chest is set with hundreds of rubies to form a Dawn emblem.
In one hand he held a long sword, and in the other he held a golden orb at the end of his hand.
Wayne's eyes were attracted by this statue, and he looked straight at him, and there was a hidden guess in his heart, this is the belief of the dawn, right?
"...... this?"
"The Great Dawn!" Carly bowed her head slightly, put her right hands on her eyebrows, and bowed.
Really......
Wayne bowed pretendically, and was about to open his mouth when he felt the necklace on his chest vibrate again.
Well?
There are taboos here too?!
"What sound?" Carly looked around suspiciously and asked, "Wayne, did you hear a voice?" Buzzing? ”
"It seems to have a strange sound,"
Wayne hurriedly patted his chest, turned off the detection equipment, and looked around like her: "But it's not there now?" ”
Carly frowned, "Maybe it's the footsteps outside, it's often like this in churches, and even whispering can cause repercussions." ”
"It should be,"
Seeing that she didn't find it, Wayne couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and pretended to be curious to look around, "Sister Carly, those portraits are ......"
His expression seemed calm, but his heart was already tumbling.
There are even taboos here?
In the entire Krims Cathedral, there are two taboos?
"It's the Eight Guardians of the Dawn,"
Carly turned to one of them and saluted, "Judgment, Judgment, Conquest, Punishment, Valor, Wisdom, Goodness, and Light." ”
"Oh."
Wayne nodded absentmindedly, his gaze kept glancing at the statue in the middle, where the taboo was most likely hidden.
I just don't know, which of these two places is sealed with the forbidden item-034 resurrection coffin......
