Chapter 38: Are You Doubting the Church?

Beneath the wide black hood, Isa's eyes moved as she stared at the tall figure in the red robe.

The wide and gorgeous red robe is engraved with dense purple and gold mysterious patterns.

That's the archbishop of the church.

In a sense, the archbishop was the most high-ranking person in the church - in Isa's memory, the pope lived in the north cathedral all the year round, and usually, only the archbishop could enter and exit the mysterious church.

Even aside from the crimson robes, which symbolized status and status, the archbishop was the most visible presence in the Church.

His tall stature, which is far beyond ordinary people, symbolizes that he has received the greatest gift from the goddess.

Looking at the church as a whole, this is also a unique gift.

Isha looked up at the crimson figure, her eyes shining with envy and reverence.

Under Isa's gaze, and with a mechanical hum, the archbishop walked in front of the clergy with extremely calm steps.

"Everyone."

"The goddess has sent down an oracle."

A stiff electronic synthesized voice came from under the crimson robes, echoing through the empty side halls: "In three days, the Lord will make a move to adjust the laws of the sun and moon. ”

"The Vareira calendar will also open a new chapter."

"By the will of the Pope, the Church will hold a great descent ceremony in the land of the descent of God to welcome the coming of the Lord."

Under Isha's gaze, the archbishop slowly opened his arms, and the stiff electronic synthesis voice became more and more high-pitched: "All deacons and priests, from now on, announce the great descent ceremony to the believers in the city......

……

"Where the gods descended?!"

"The Goddess Descends ?!!"

Looking at Gao Yuan in front of him, Chen Fan felt half of his body numb: "You kid won't be lying to me, right?" ”

Gao Yuan didn't speak, but turned his head to the main church not far behind him.

Chen Fan followed the lofty gaze.

A deacon and priest dressed in white and black robes came out of the metal arched door of the Episcopal Church.

After a brief pause, the clergy dispersed in all directions.

"Preparations for the Divine Descent Ceremony have begun."

"The deacons and priests need to inform the believers of this news throughout the city within three days."

At this moment, Chen Fan's luck psychology was completely shattered.

Good news.

He had roughly figured out the truth about the Election Ceremony and the Church trying to hide, and according to the original plan, he needed to find Xu Huai, obtain more information, and find a way out before the Election Ceremony as much as possible.

Bad news.

No need to wait for the Chosen Ceremony.

The goddess is about to come down to him in person!

Thinking that the other party was likely to be an alien from another planet, Chen Fan automatically thought of a large number of thriller movies about the third type of contact.

What tentacles, slime, what mysterious human experiments......

One is right, the ability of intelligent creatures to supplement brain details is too strong.

Just thinking about it for a while, Chen Fan felt that his SAN value was falling down.

[Calm. 】

Yi's voice sounded in Chen Fan's mind: [I think this is a good opportunity. 】

[If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can at least take this opportunity to find out the true identity of the goddess. 】

The corners of Chen Fan's eyes couldn't help twitching.

I really don't have a backache when I stand and talk!

Chen Fan took a deep breath, calmed down the anxiety in his heart, and quickly adjusted the original plan.

Gotta speed up!

You can't just wait stupidly for the so-called goddess to come, right?

What if the goddess takes a fancy to him and wants to take him to the kingdom of God in advance?

"Let's not talk about the descent ceremony."

Chen Fan looked left and right.

After spotting several black-robed priests walking in their direction, he grabbed Gao Yuan beside him and quickened his pace in the direction away from the main church: "I wanted to ask you something when I was in the library. ”

"What?"

"The entire church library contains only history books from the old calendar after 1800, and not only that, but the history books in the library even contain only information related to the city of Varela." Chen Fan's face was solemn, "What about the previous history?" Isn't there any other region in the world but Varela? ”

"Don't you think it's a little strange?"

"Strange?"

Gao Yuan glanced at Chen Fan in surprise, "What's so strange about this, the archbishop has already said that the disaster in the first year of Varela destroyed all the previous texts." ”

Chen Fan sighed helplessly.

The smell in the library is really harmful.

Such an obvious logical loophole, Gao Yuan would not be able to detect it!

"The books have been destroyed, but what about the people?"

"Can't all those in the know be killed by the disaster of Varela's first year, right?"

"Why didn't they leave any words describing before Varela's first year?"

Hearing this, Gao Yuan suddenly fell silent.

He frowned and began to think about something he hadn't realized before.

I don't know why, Gao Yuan always felt a thick fog in his mind.

The fog blocked his thought process and caused him deeper confusion.

"I ...... I do not know. ”

After thinking for a long time, Gao Yuan raised his hand and scratched his scalp vigorously, frowned and asked bluntly, "What exactly do you want to say?" ”

Chen Fan hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Don't you think the church is deliberately hiding something?" ”

Gao Yuan swallowed his saliva and looked at Chen Fan with a strange gaze with a little horror:

"Chen Fan, you ......"

"Are you suspicious of the Church?"

Doubting the Church?

No, no, no, he didn't just suspect the church!

Considering Gao Yuan's receptivity and for the sake of his own safety, Chen Fan did not say his true thoughts in his heart.

He nodded, and said in a lofty tone, "Yes, don't you think it's a bit of a problem for the church to do this?" ”

At this time, Gao Yuan was already out of order.

If the words questioning the church were spoken from the mouth of an ordinary believer, then Gao Yuan would not hesitate to regard the believer as a heretic and inform the church to burn the infidels alive who had been violated by evil spirits!

But Chen Fan is not an ordinary believer.

He's a Chosen One!

A Chosen One with a high standing in the Church!!

What is it called?

Why did Your Majesty rebel?

"I, I don't know."

Gao Yuan subconsciously took half a step back, and shook his head again and again with his eyes distracted:

"Don't say it, I don't want to know."

Looking at Gao Yuan's attitude as if he was facing a great enemy, Chen Fan helplessly raised his hand and touched his nose: "Okay, I have one last question." ”

"Just ask."

Gao Yuan took a few deep breaths in succession, and his face regained calm, but it could be seen from his eyes that his mood at this time was still very complicated.

"...... outside Varela"

"What's going on now?"

Gao Yuan's face, which had just regained his composure, changed suddenly.

"Shh

"You're crazy!!"

"You dare to ask about this thing?!"

He quickly glanced around, and after making sure that there was no one around, Gao Yuan took a few steps back again, narrowing the distance between him and Chen Fan.

"Chen Fan, I don't think I've heard these words, don't tell anyone else!"

"Otherwise......"

Gao Yuan seemed to think of something, and his face was a little ugly again: "Remember, don't say these words again!" ”
