Lord of War
Vol 2 Chapter 188: .The future saint and the present demons
Void City, in the past few months, has become the focus of attention of all churches across the continent.
Basically, the senior priests of all the churches in the whole continent gathered here, and even legendary powerhouses were rumored to come here. With the arrival of the church priests, the temple knights responsible for protecting the priests came with as many as 100,000. huge. There were more than ten or twenty temporary military camps, densely set up around Void City, and it looked like it had expanded the scope of Void City by more than three times.
Under this situation, even the Millennium Covenant Empire would not dare to make trouble openly, let alone the nobles of the Kingdom of Darbion.
Of course, they still imagined maliciously, hoping that these priests from various temples would give full play to their arrogance and cause some trouble to Void City. But they didn’t know that Neil was already prepared in this regard. He just used a very simple psychological method of comparison—the priests and priests serving the goddess of ice and snow and winter are so simple, are you embarrassed to ask More? The priests and knights of the other temples around you are all watching you.
So all the priests and knights of the temple stayed honestly, and no one dared to get into trouble. In order to gain a reputation for the temple, several bands of bandits and robbers that even William had a headache were killed by these temple knights. The regiment was fighting so badly, and the public security situation was even better than before.
These poor priests and bishops would never understand that the goddess Ice and Winter had already made an agreement with Sean. Of course, all the priests who served her would unconditionally cooperate with all of Sean’s actions, so these temple bishops wanted to win the faith of the believers. The behavior became purely a knife in Neil's hand.
In Shaun’s realm, apart from the goddesses of ice and winter, no other gods’ temples and believers can exist.
It's just a pity that these bishops who think they are clever don't even know. In other words, their thoughts at the moment did not focus on this aspect. After all, the appearance of the devil represented an absolutely dangerous signal to them, especially now that the devil did not know where it went. And the most important problem is that the lord of Pandaren is also not in the domain now. It is said that he is in the wild land and cannot meet with their bishops.
It is precisely for this reason that after staying in Void City for a while, the bishops and priests of these churches also chose to leave. The value of capturing or killing a demon is much higher than that of staying here and wasting time, but in Neil’s view, the biggest reason these guys want to leave should be that their hospitality is too shabby, otherwise it’s like this. This kind of thing that needs to run around, they can completely hand it over to the temple knights and low-level priests to deal with, there is no need to even go out in person.
And looking at the direction of these people, it can also fully prove Neal's guess.
This torrent of faith that represents the secular world rushes toward the trading capital at the speed of a locust crossing the border.
At such a delicate and sensitive moment, how can the Pan-Continent Chamber of Commerce Alliance dare not entertain these locusts properly. Even if the Pan-Continent Chamber of Commerce Alliance dared to challenge an empire, they could only pinch their noses to recognize the faith of the entire continent.
But even so, there were still several priests who were temporarily left in the Void City.
Their main purpose is to build a new temple here, trying to attract new believers. It’s just that the progress has been very unsatisfactory all the time, because they soon discovered that whether it is the Void City or the surrounding towns, everyone believes in the goddesses of ice and winter, no matter how hard they try to preach, but the result is not Anyone who believes in their gods shocked them while feeling a sense of powerlessness.
Absolute belief.
This is a description that is only recorded in words in the temples, and it is also the highest ideal level desired by the gods, but in fact, whether it is the gods or the bishops who believe in the gods, this is absolutely impossible!
The reason is simple.
Like healing magic, naturally the goddess of life has the most outstanding magic effect. Not to mention the dead, but flesh and bones are at least okay. And everything related to battle and war must be faith in Marz, the **** of war. Of course, there are some gods that contain multiple priests, such as the goddess of ice and winter, the **** of dawn, the goddess of victory, the **** of twilight, and so on. Usually, these gods are more easily believed by people because of the wide-area nature of the priesthood. .
Basically, not to mention the territory of a kingdom. Generally, even in the territory of a lord, there will be temples of several gods. Even if the Saint-Joles Empire believes in the **** of dawn as a religious power above the imperial power, it is not the **** of dawn that has the final say. The people in the empire also believe in other gods.
is precisely because of this, so when the bishops of these temples came to Sean’s territory, the first thing they saw was the single belief in this territory. This situation is almost like an undeveloped virgin land in their eyes, so of course they hope to have a good talk with Sean in order to gain the authority to build a temple in this land, but because Sean is not in the land. , And this kind of thing is so important that Neil can’t call the shots—in fact, Neil knows that Sean and Eswinter are the goddess’ agreement, but of course he can’t say it, so he kicked the ball. Back to Sean.
But I waited here for a long time and didn’t see Sean coming back. Of course the pampered bishops couldn’t stand it, so they left one after another, leaving only a few people with good identities waiting for Sean’s return. Of course, by the way, I was preaching the doctrine. Even if the temple is not built, it is a good thing to be able to attract more shallow believers. What these people didn't expect was that no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't even win over a shallow believer.
All the leaders of the entire territory believe in the goddesses of ice and winter!
This is simply a shocking thing.
Behind this appalling situation, all the priests also fell into silence and distress.
Hitley is one of these distressed priests.
She is very young, she looks only 21 or 2 years old on the outside, but in fact she looks younger than on the outside. It’s just that Hitley, who is only 18 years old this year, is already the youngest and most promising chief priest in the Church of the Goddess of Life. It is possible to get this special honor. In the absence of the bishop, the chief priest is the commander of the priests, a bit like a general.
Of course, few people know that the chief priest is actually synonymous with the candidate saint.
Even Hitley didn’t know.
And the young and promising Hitley became the chief priest in the past two years. Because of lack of sufficient experience and courage, this time the churches all over the continent will set their sights on the Void City, and the Pope of the Church of Life will let The cardinal in charge of this incident brought Hitley to the Void City, the purpose of course was to allow her to accumulate experience. After the cardinal set off for the trading capital, Hitley became the acting head of the goddess of life in Void City. There were as many as ten subordinate priests under her command, and there was also an 18-person group of priests. The Knights Templar team is responsible for their safety.
The scale of can be said to be the largest among all the churches still staying in Void City. From this it can be seen not only the wealth of the Goddess of Life Church, but also the importance this church attaches to Void City.
But for nearly a month, none of this has brought Hitley any advantage. She, like the leaders of other churches who stayed in Void City, bumped into walls everywhere.
However, things seem to have improved slightly recently.
Because more than a week ago, a scarred army entered the Void City. The damage to this army is too serious. Even after emergency treatment, many people still have a sigh of relief. In order to let the church prove its value and be kind-hearted, Hitley has more than one of them recently. For the past week, I have devoted my full attention to treating these wounded people, and finally they have not returned the lives of these people to the embrace of the goddess.
Today, Hitley finally finished the final inspection and made sure that these wounded soldiers would not be in danger of life, and then she took time to rest.
This sense of fulfillment made Hitley very satisfied.
But when he thought that the church's temple building still failed to pass, Hitley's face was full of distress.
"Beautiful lady, frowning will destroy your temperament."
At this moment, a slightly low voice suddenly sounded, which frightened Hitley.
When Hitley turned her head, she saw a man wearing leather pants and boots, but with his upper body naked, just wearing a knee-length windbreaker, standing not far from him. He has long purple-blue hair, golden eyes and a beautiful face that makes his heart beat faster. Although he looks a little bit strange with his costume, it is undeniable that this man does possess a kind of Very unique and extraordinary charm.
But I don’t know why, when Hitley saw this man, her heart jumped suddenly. This was not because of shyness, but an instinctive shudder from the soul. As if encountering some natural enemy, the whole person has become numb and unable to move because of fear, and can only be mermaid. Fortunately, this illusion quickly disappeared. When Hitley stared at the other party, the other party was already sitting next to her.
"Do you have any troubles?" the handsome and evil man asked softly.
"You are..." Hitley asked subconsciously, and at the same time moved her body a bit, keeping a certain distance from the strange man.
"You can call me Enkos." The evil-looking young man said with a smile, "I just saw your frown and sigh, it makes me feel distressed.... Is there anything I can do for you? This beautiful..."
"My name is Hitley, and I am a priest who serves the goddess of life." Hitley's face flushed slightly, but she still replied.
"Beautiful Miss Hitley." Enkos smiled and nodded, "I have seen all of your treatment of the wounded these days. It is really admirable."
"This...this is what I should do." Hitley lowered her head shyly.
"So, what is your trouble?" Enkos asked with a smile, "Maybe I can help."
"I hope to be able to obtain the right to build the temple in the territory of Sir Sean Connery." Hitley said subconsciously, but soon she gave a bitterly helpless smile. She felt a bit like a fool. She even said this. Coase doesn't know what he is doing, so what's the use of telling her this? Soon, Hitley added: "But Sir Sean Connery doesn't seem to be in the territory at the moment, so..."
"If you are looking for the lord of this territory, then he has already returned." Enkos said with a smile, "Not long ago, Alfred the angry lion escorted back all the way back, the governor of the territory Neil and Commander William personally greeted him, even the residents of the city."
"Ah!" Hitley jumped up in exclamation when she heard Enkos's words. She felt that there was something wrong from the beginning. At this moment, she finally realized that it turned out that this place is quieter than before. "Then I'll leave first, Mr. Enkos."
"Wait." Enkos said, "Are you going to talk to him about the temple?"
"Yes." Hitley nodded, looking at Enkos in a puzzled manner.
"Shaun is injured..."
"Then I should visit the lord at this time." Hitley interrupted Enkos's words eagerly, "The goddess teaches us..."
"Oh." Enkos sighed helplessly, "You may not be able to see Sean now, or wait, if nothing else, the lord will definitely summon you today. After all, he is now receiving Only you can heal the injury....If I were you, I would now go back and pray to your goddess, restore my divine power to the most complete state, and bring a drop of life essence."
Hitley's face changed instantly when he heard Enkos say "Essence of Life": "Lord Lord actually suffered such a serious injury!"
"The injury he suffered is not serious, it's just that a piece of meat is missing." Enkos curled his lips, "Without the essence of life, it would be impossible to let the piece of meat he lost grow back." After a short pause, Enkos continued: "So you still have to be fully prepared before visiting this lord....Of course, after you do this, you don’t need to mention the power to build the temple. I believe that Sean will do it again soon. I looked for you once and agreed with you to build a temple on his territory."
"Ah, thank you very much for your advice, Mr. Enkos." Hitley bowed to Enkos with excitement, but when she looked up again, Enkos was gone.
This strange phenomenon of course made Hitley a little surprised, but she did not care too much, but regarded Enkos as a mysterious powerhouse. She even thought that Enkos must have been sent by the Pope to assist her. tutor.
And just after Hitley left, Enkos's figure reappeared, but this time there was another young man in a black dress beside him.
Beth.
"You're playing with fire." Beth looked at Enkos calmly, his voice was low, but it was already a bit of blame, "That little guy has an agreement with Eswinter. And your intervention this time is likely to be There are some accidents, and Andrew will be unhappy."
"The lord will thank me." Enkos shrugged, "Eswinter's priesthood has nothing to do with healing at all. The agreement between mortals and gods is not so strong, I will go to Eswin. Tell had a good talk."
"She is the Saintess Candidate of the Church of Life, and I am afraid that the three words'candidate' will be removed soon."
"I know."
Hearing what Enkos said, Beth could only sigh helplessly after all: "Your old problems have not changed. You will be overwhelmed with compassion when you see the saint. Don't forget that you are a demon, this time for all the churches. People are here for you, and you dare to show up in front of a future saint.... Moreover, the price of awakening you this time is very heavy. At present, only you have a free body, and I need to stay. Here is an atonement for you."
"I understand." Enkos nodded, "I will leave tomorrow." (To be continued.)
