Chapter 21: The Priesthood

At the base of the steel pyramid is an arched door several meters high, which is the entrance to the main church.

A clergyman in a robe walked through the metal arched door with hurried steps.

The robes come in a variety of colors and styles - this is the best identification to distinguish the identity of the clergy.

As far as the eye can see, the clergy who walk through the metal arched doors are mostly dressed in white robes.

Chen Fan subconsciously glanced at the "guide" in front of him.

Well, the white robe is the same color and style......

Chen Fan nodded secretly, it seems that these clergy, like his own guides, are the grassroots of the church-deacons.

Although Chen Fan's movements were very hidden, the white-robed deacon who led the way was still aware of Chen Fandong's behavior of looking around.

He couldn't help but frown.

This group of Chosen Ones must have been to the main church a long time ago, and although the Chosen One in front of them was absent from the oracle twice, he wouldn't have behaved like this, right?

Don't......

Thinking of Chen Fan's performance along the way, the white-robed deacon shook his head imperceptibly, leaving behind the little thoughts that had vaguely flashed.

Perhaps, as the mother of the Chosen One said, the identity of the Chosen One has brought a lot of pressure to Chen Fan.

"Follow me."

The white-robed deacon, who was supposed to complete the task of guiding the way silently, reminded in a deep voice: "Don't look around. ”

"As the Chosen One, you should have the majesty of the Chosen One."

Chen Fan's expression froze, and he quickly restrained his small movements.

Just as he was about to keep up with the white-robed deacon, a black shadow broke into Chen Fan's eyes.

The white-robed deacon, who was originally walking normally, also stopped.

He bent his knees slightly, put his right hand on his chest and saluted respectfully, "Greetings, Lord Priest." ”

Priest?

New clergy?

Chen Fan quickly raised his head and glanced at it.

It was a tall man in a black robe.

The wide black robe and hood completely hid the other party in the darkness, and a pair of reddish mechanical eyes looked directly at the world outside the black robe.

Unlike the plain white robe, the black robe is made of more elaborate materials, and it is embroidered with a large number of mystical patterns and patterns with silver thread.

Judging by both the dress and the behavior of the white-robed deacons, there is no doubt that the black-robed priest has a higher status in the church.

"Carlisle, well done."

A hoarse voice with the smell of heavy metal came from under the black robe: "The third oracle has not been opened yet, and you are not late. ”

"Go, and the Lord will remember your hard work."

"When the time comes, the Lord will bless you."

Hearing this, the white-robed deacon Carlisle suddenly showed a flash of joy on his face: "Thank you for the gift of the Lord!" ”

Chen Fan, who was standing behind the white-robed deacon, was stunned.

There is no substantial reward at all, and a few fluttering words can make people cry out of gratitude.

Damn, what's the top pie painting technique?!

Just when Chen Fan was shocked by this method of painting cakes, the black-robed priest suddenly turned his head and turned his gaze to him.

Under Chen Fan's gaze, he stretched out his right hand from the wide black robe, and turned slightly sideways to the steel arched door in front of him: "Your Excellency the Chosen One." ”

"Please follow me, the third oracle is about to open, and the other Chosen ones have arrived."

Looking at his metallic arm in the sun, Chen Fan's pupils dilated slightly.

Mechanical prosthetics!

Like this white-robed priest named Carlisle, the black-robed priest has also undergone a mechanized transformation of the human body!

But this is not the fundamental reason why Chen Fan felt shocked!

With the reflection of the mechanical prosthetic in the sunlight, at that moment just now, Chen Fan caught a glimpse of the scene inside the hood of the black robe.

It's a completely mechanical face that has been transformed!

Slightly different from Carlisle, there is no skin in sight on this face, only intricate pipes and a cold metal shell engraved with intricate patterns.

At first glance, Chen Fan even thought he had seen a robot!

"Your Excellency the Chosen One."

The black-robed priest's tone was cold, and he couldn't detect the slightest respect except for those honorifics: "Hurry up, you don't want to miss the third oracle, right?" ”

After saying that, the black-robed priest didn't stop, and directly turned around and walked towards the metal arch.

Chen Fan looked at the back of the black-robed priest, and subconsciously turned his head to look at the white-robed deacon in front of him: "Carlisle......"

"Your Excellency, the Chosen One, go quickly."

Carlisle had an ugly but gentle smile on his face: "My mission is done. ”

He hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and reminded:

"Lord Quinton is strict, so be careful."

Chen Fan looked at Carlisle in front of him with a stunned expression, even he didn't expect the white-robed ruling church to say such words: "You ......"

After a brief moment of surprise, Chen Fan came back to his senses and expressed his gratitude to Carlisle: "...... Thanks, I'll take note. ”

Carlisle didn't speak, just bent down and took a few steps back.

After saluting Chen Fan, he turned around without hesitation and walked briskly towards a steel pyramid not far away.

Looking at Carlisle's fading back, Chen Fan's eyes revealed a trace of solemnity.

It sounds like the black-robed priest named Quinton isn't a good guy to get along with, and I wonder if it will affect his plans in the future......

He suppressed the apprehension in his heart, turned and quickly caught up with Quinton.

……

More than three meters high, the steel arch stands silently at the base of the pyramid, and the door is engraved with a large number of intricate patterns, which shimmer in the sun, adding a bit of divine flavor to the main church.

Although the exterior of the main church is slightly different from what Chen Fan imagined, Chen Fan still believes from the bottom of his heart that the interior of the main church should be a magnificent, religious and cultural holy place.

With the huge exterior of the main church, not to mention the large-scale frescoes and sculptures inside, at least there must be some frescoes with religious meanings, right?

After all, there is a portrait of a goddess that occupies an entire wall in his house, and there is a huge church, so he can't even make a mural, right?

Thinking of this, a faint sense of expectation and excitement rose in Chen Fan's heart - this is undoubtedly the best way to understand the "pseudo-god" deeply.

If he is lucky, maybe he can find out the origin of some false gods and the "merits" of false gods.

Therefore, while following in Quinton's footsteps, he explained to Yi in his heart:

Remember to record everything you see in the main church, and you might be able to analyze a lot of information from it! ’

For Chen Fan's request, Yi naturally agreed:
