XX. The Third Bible
I don't care about Sophie Marceau's faith, in fact in Jerusalem, Protestantism, although the only religion, is not very profitable to promote. After all, most Europeans and Americans believe in religion, and dark Christianity and the religion of the Lord Shijie are almost completely different things, and believing in dark Christianity is almost equivalent to converting their beliefs to those who originally believed in religion.
As for those who have no faith in the first place, they are not very interested in having faith, although dark Christianity is spread all over the large and small strongholds except Xiqi City, but the total population of religious belief is not much, and there are only a thousand people, which is slightly more than the population of a small stronghold.
Sophie Marceau's kindness, I have no reason to refuse, although this blonde girl herself does not believe in dark Christianity, but she knows the teachings, etiquette, and rules of dark Christianity well.
After the Alfred Reformation, dark Christianity divided the faithful into twelve classes, the highest being the Pope, followed by the Son, and then the cardinals, patriarchs, archbishops, metropolitans, diocesan bishops, adjutant bishops, adjutant bishops, leading bishops, priests and deacons.
In addition to the Pope and the Holy Son, the remaining ten ranks can be promoted in order of contribution and strength to the Church. Contribution is more ethereal, but the criterion of strength is clearer. The ten ranks, from cardinal to deacon, correspond exactly to the ethereal phase from the tenth order to the first order.
For example, my current real strength is the second-order void phase, and if I join the dark Christianity, I can become a priest, and the Monkey King is the strength of the fifth-order void phase, and if I join the dark Christianity, I can become an assistant bishop.
The rituals and many rules of dark Christianity were selectively copied from the teachings of the Lord Shijie, and in Alfred's hands, a copy of the Third Bible was compiled as the supreme text of Protestantism.
Most of the rituals that Sophie Marceau taught me came from this Third Bible, the dark Christian book compiled by Alfred himself.
Although I was not a good student, Alfred also simplified the etiquette to the extreme, solemn and simple in order to promote dark Christianity, so I spent an afternoon learning almost everything I should have learned.
Sophie Marceau repeatedly tested me seven or eight times, and the blonde girl relented and repeatedly told me not to make a mistake in tomorrow's baptism.
I was tossed by Sophie Marceau and said angrily: "What can I do even if I make a mistake? It's a big deal that Lao Tzu quits, and it's not that I want to join the church!"
Sophie Marceau looked at me coldly for a while, and said lightly: "Do you think - if you don't do it, can you continue to live?"
I grinned, my eyes becoming more and more frenzied, and a low growl came out of my throat, as if a savage and unrivaled bestiality emanated from my body.
Sophie Marceau's face immediately changed, and I guess the blonde girl must have remembered that "Nick is crazy".
For a madman, there is nothing to be afraid of, because the mentally ill mind is not in the same dimension as a normal person, a normal shijie. Even the pain of the skin is like watching a play for a madman.
Sophie Marceau screamed and jumped out of the studio door, and I didn't move, just coldly listened to the blonde girl's footsteps and quickly left.
I'm not really crazy, it's enough to scare the blonde girl, and if you keep playing, you won't be able to end it.
"If I can contact Sun Wukong now, Lao Tzu really doesn't want to accept any hellish baptism!"
I reached out and touched it, and it turned into a colorless ring of the Immortal Sword, and there was some anticipation in my heart, but there was more to it - impatience!
Alfred's name in Jerusalem was indeed loud enough and appealing so strong that early the next morning, I saw the streets of the main city of Jerusalem full of people heading to the Basilica of the Light.
The Cathedral of the Holy Light, renovated by the new Pope Hippolytus I, is also the only church in Jerusalem, which can accommodate 5,000 people to pray together, and the decoration is luxurious, even in the Lord's Shijie is very rare.
You know, there are only 9,000 people in Jerusalem, but I estimate that there will be more than 2,000 people who come to the Basilica of the Holy Light, which is already a terrifying number.
I followed the blonde girl through the layers of people, and heard them talk about the fact that the Holy Son Alfred actually accepted a godson, and he was going to personally preside over the baptism of this godson, which was a supreme honor for every Protestant.
Everyone was talking about which lucky one got Alfred's favor.
Almost everyone thought that Zechar might become Alfred's godson and be baptized by the hands of the Son of Darkness.
I have hardly heard of this person, but from the mouths of these people who came to observe, I can roughly know that this person has not appeared in the dark shijie for a long time, and it is not more than a year at most.
In the dark Shijie, the traffic is extremely inconvenient, and the communication situation is also very poor, although there are some artificial souls for short-distance communication, but they are often able to communicate within a stronghold. The transmission of information from one base to another often takes several months. So I didn't know anything about Zechar at all, and it wasn't a particularly surprising thing.
Sophie Marceau led me through the crowd from a passage next to the church to the back of the Basilica of the Light, behind the imposing Basilica of the Light was an extremely spacious square, which was now filled with only a dozen people, including Alfred.
Although I didn't recognize these people, I could see that Alfred's status was not the highest in this group, and a strong man who looked like a god was the absolute center of this group.
This sturdy man who was as majestic as a god was wearing a black robe, with a faint black light on his body, and occasionally a tiny black lightning bolt would emerge from under the robe, and his strength was far above Alfred.
Needless to say, this must be the new Pope Hippolytus I, who single-handedly founded Dark Christianity in Dark Shijie, and has grown to the point where it is today, and is also a very famous guy in Dark Shijie. Even a strong man like Sun Wukong, when it comes to the new Pope Hippolytus I, once praised it without saltiness: "If this guy is not a religious madman and wastes too much energy on founding a church, he may have a chance to become the strongest man in mankind." ”
I didn't have time to pay attention to the others, and in full view of everyone, I could only kneel down and bow to the new Pope Hippolytus I and the Son of Darkness, Alfred, according to the etiquette taught by Sophie Marceau.
