Chapter 2: True Divine Art
I had to look around like a mad dog, looking for the tabloids of lace news everywhere, so that the reporter squatted at the door.
"I heard that today is a big day for the directors of the X Foundation to get together. Even the people of the Stone Society are coming, have they made any big moves lately, and what treasure have they discovered?"
Some reporters whispered under the watchful eyes of the bodyguards in black suits.
Although "Incredible" is known for its secrecy, it only entertains itself in a small circle. But for the United States, a country with almost no secrets, there is still a faint rumor of rumors.
In a country like a country full of leaks and extremely powerful media, even all kinds of secrets that the military wants to hide will be mercilessly picked up by those reporters.
And no matter how powerful "Incredible" and the X Foundation behind them are, they can't stop the media.
And the Stone Society, though not as famous as the Skeleton Society's Masons Society. But in the United States, it is also an extremely old secret organization.
In fact, in accordance with ancient traditions. In the United States, there are many secret gatherings.
It's like Tom told Sù Wen to fly, after the Black Death ravaged it. The prestige and power of the Church declined to the extreme, and people dug through the piles of old papers in search of the knowledge and secrets contained in the ancient texts.
So much so that all of a sudden, the ancient civilization reappeared in front of people in the form of an explosion. Such a period was called the "Renaissance" by later generations.
And then with the discovery of the New World. Those who have inherited ancient powers and mystical knowledge have fled the Old World, where the Church was powerful, and have taken root in the New World.
And these people. The places that first appear are often the oldest universities in the country. So much so that to this day, these ancient knowledge of the gods are still circulating in these various secret associations.
And knowledge is power, and with these ancient universities becoming the output of elite education in the United States. These secret societies are often inseparable from power and money, and thus have more power.
That. How many presidents have appeared in the legendary Skull and Bones Society. And in the legend, those founders of the rice country. Most of them come from the Masons' Society.
These rumors are true or false, and outsiders have never known whether they are true or false. But all kinds of secret societies are ghostly in all corners of the country's society that emerge from time to time.
And the power they have is constantly suppressing the media. Do not expose their shadows.
And tonight it is. An example of their small appearance......
The banquets of the upper class are always so luxurious that people yearn for them. The same is true of today's Abel estate.
In the beautiful pool illuminated by the spotlights, there are beautiful women who have been specially invited to have an active atmosphere, wearing swimsuits and showing off their beautiful figures. Keep looking at the edge of the pool, holding a wine glass. Well-dressed gentlemen threw flattering glances.
After entering the lobby, you can see the splendor everywhere. The band is playing pleasant music hard. But there are hardly anyone listening, or there are pairs of men and women on the dance floor, dancing to the music.
And more of them are holding wine glasses, gathering together in groups of three or five, whispering and chatting.
But the hosts of today's banquet, and the most important guests, were already in a secret lounge, or conference room.
Francis, the elder of the Magician Stone Society.
This gentleman is not French. Of course, or maybe his ancestors were. And this name usually gives people the impression of a steady scholar or a person who is extremely dependent on religion and lacks self-confidence.
This gentleman, on the other hand, is not a believer in any religion. Because he is a member of the Magic Stone Society, and the Magic Stone is actually from alchemy. That is, the legendary wisdom stone, which has nothing to do with crystals.
Even their emblem is a wisdom stone, just such a stone emblem cut to perfection in hexahedron, but it is often reminiscent of diamonds......
Now the three elders of the Magic Stone Society also sat in front of Able with a stern face.
Today, Abel is dressed up and looks solemn, wearing a robe with a pattern of yin and yang fish on it. But he was dressed in white, with a skullcap similar to that of a pope on his head, and even a scepter in his hand.
Although they looked solemn, these elders of the Magic Stone Society looked very confused. They'd never seen any of these X Foundation directors walk through like this.
Of course, with the exception of Abel, the rest of the board of directors wore red robes. Everyone has a stern face on their faces.
"Maybe I should take out the crystal ball and see what's going on with you?" said Francis.
Able smiled, "Whatever you want, I can allow you to use the crystal ball to check it!"
Since the master said so, Francis unceremoniously took out the crystal ball, and with a touch of it in his hand, the crystal ball was aimed at Abel.
He didn't need to use spells like the shrine maidens of the gypsies to communicate the mysterious power of the crystal ball. In the crystal ball, a light appeared, it was a soft white light, but it was extremely crystal clear, and it was revealed from the crystal ball without any impurities.
The three elders of the Magic Stone Society were dumbfounded, this kind of light could only represent a kind of power:
"You...... You...... You ......"
Able smiled mysteriously, "How?"
"Are you sanctified?" Francis swallowed with difficulty, "Your soul has become pure and immaculate, and it seems to have been spiritualized...... Is this your own practice?"
Abel solemnly said, "This is a gift from my Lord!"
Ever since he became a devout follower of Wenfei, Able has been studying mystical powers, and he knows very well how to make his power grow.
Piety, only selfless piety, melt one's own qiē in the glory of the Lord, and let the glory of the Lord wash away the impurities in the soul.
Unfortunately, though. But now Abel is not the Holy Spirit, and there are still too many impurities in his soul, but Francis is too shocked to find the shadow in this light!
"My lord's authority is higher than a qiē!" Abel said with a smile, "He has given me divine magic!"
As soon as he said that, as soon as his palm lit up, a ball of light rose, floating in the air as lightly as a light bulb. It's like a little sun!
"It's magic...... True magic!" Francis was shocked. As the chief elder of the Secret Society, I can tell the difference between true magic and sorcery abilities!
The Magic Stone Society is a mysterious organization that has inherited ancient alchemy, believing that matter can be transformed into each other. And it is believed that between this transformation, there is a mystery and power hidden in the world.
Primitive alchemists did not worship gods. But the alchemists in the later period were different. It is believed that the ultimate mystery behind the transformation of matter is the power of God.
The Magic Stone will be, but in between. Acknowledging the existence of this ultimate power, but denying that power as a deity.
And Abel, as an old friend who is quite familiar with the Magic Stone Society, has a good understanding of this. This is the basis for winning over the Magic Stone Society.
The Magic Stone Society has a very strong latent force, and there are many great scientists in science and engineering, all of whom are members. There are even several Nobel Prize winners.
And it is said that they have a great influence on many large scientific research institutions, which is even more rare. In short, they have a deep connection to the scientific community.
There are even several departments in a world-renowned university, which are their home base. They have maintained a friendly relationship with the X Foundation.
"We all know that if you want to change the existence of matter, only a true god can do it!" another elder of the Magic Stone Society said with difficulty, "And if you give it divine magic, even the earth can do it!"
Able nodded and said, "That's true, but if you look at this light, it's real, and you can see it clearly with the naked eye, is this still called not interfering with reality?"
As soon as he said this, several elders fell silent. This is, of course, called interfering with reality. That's why Francis shouted in shock just now, this is divine art, real divine art!
In Wen Fei's understanding, that is, the earth belongs to yin, and it has not yet escaped from the category of ghosts and gods. And only the gods of pure yang have the power to interfere with reality.
It can perform miracles in front of any ordinary person!
"This is a new god!" said Francis, with a complicated sigh.
"Yes, it's a majesty who is still walking on earth!" Abel said with a smile.
Their questions and answers seemed normal. But there is a deep meaning in it.
In either case, any true god will expend divine power to perform miracles at the very beginning. But often when the church matures and the faith is solid, there are no more miracles.
This has always been a difficult puzzle in theological research. But it is well known that there is a new god who will perform miracles.
"How about joining us!" Able opened his hands, "The kingdom of God still needs your joining!"
Although they had already expected it in their hearts, the elders of the Several Magic Stone Society still looked at each other for a long time, and they didn't know what to decide for a while!
"A god who walks in the human world does not necessarily have the power to interfere with reality!" said a grim-faced Magic Stone Elder. (To be continued......)
