The Beyonder of Xingyue Gensokyo Chapter 1331

She stared at the distance of the snow-capped mountains, and murmured: "...I can feel that a new snow girl is about to be born in this snow-capped mountain. Is this the lament of Otome that you have not given birth to an heir? "

——

On the top of the snow mountain, a tall and straight figure stood there.

The heavy snow couldn't blow his clothes, and the snowflakes couldn't touch his body.

"I'm sorry, Otome...but we'll see each other soon, very soon..."

He closed his eyes and muttered, then suddenly opened his eyes and looked into the distance. There was the land of the extreme west opposite to the land of the extreme east.

Turning his head and leaving step by step, a flower of Yamabuki floated out of his cuff and fell on the snow. The next moment, he was submerged in the wind and snow, and a letter fell beside Yamabuki, which was written by Otome Yamabuki , beautiful and powerful, the letter was blown away by the mountain wind, and there was only one ancient poem written by her herself——

The mountain blows flowers in seven or eight layers, but it is so pitiful that it has no children!

Chapter 0001 Religious Expansion

Since the end of the Age of Gods, after the gods of Northern Europe, Greece, and Ancient Egypt have fallen and disappeared, the world has entered the Bronze Age dominated by humans. The mysteries of the European continent have disappeared one after another. The oppression of the gods has been lost. With the passage of time, those gods who once ruled the sky and the earth, moved mountains and filled the sea, have gradually become legends.

Christianity and Judaism have the same origin and believe in God together. As the oldest sect that existed just after the end of the Age of Gods, Judaism has gradually developed from the original polytheism to monotheism. They worship Jehovah as the "only true God" of the Jews. , claiming that the Jews are Jehovah's "chosen people", and in this worship, the ancient prophets and sages gained mystery in their belief in "the only God".

Legend has it that Moses resisted the temptation of the devil in ancient Egypt and saw the glory of the only God. He led the Jewish people out of Egypt, crossed the Red Sea and came to Mount Sinai. The Ten Commandments, and the compiler of the Judaic law, also created the mystery of Judaism at this time - Kabbalah.

Kabbalah, the core idea of ​​Jewish mysticism, is regarded as the blueprint for the creation of the universe by gods. The people of God aim to contribute their beliefs and get infinitely close to the top of the Kabbalah tree of life—that is, gods. Gradually mastered the power beyond the ordinary, and became the first group of humans in the western world to possess extraordinary power after the Age of Gods.

Primitive Judaism, which believed in Yahweh as the only God and took the Bible and the Old Testament as the basis of its teachings, has always used mysticism as its code of conduct. The status of the gods, the identities of the people of the gods are hidden in this continent.

Until AD 0, a Jew named Jesus was born. He was a devout Jew and a Jewish missionary. He gradually came into contact with the deepest mystery of Judaism, Kabbalah thought, and gained mystery. Until one day, this The carpenter's son claimed to have received instructions from the Lord, proclaimed himself the savior, and began to preach new teachings.

This behavior completely touched the root of Judaism, and Judaism began to persecute and hunt him down, while Christ Jesus fled while promoting his teachings, and gradually gathered twelve disciples.

He performed miracles, turned water into good wine at the wedding banquet, healed the dying minister’s son in a different place, healed the disabled who had been paralyzed for thirty-eight years, and fed five thousand people with five loaves and two fish. Walking to calm the storm and bring light to those who were born blind, he resurrected Lazarus who had been dead for four days, and fought the inhuman beings that began to appear in the Western Continent.

More and more mysterious displays have made people believe that he is the savior and the son of gods, and this kind of behavior is tantamount to offending Jewish mysticism and the code of conduct that does not show miracles to the world. was killed by the Jews.

No one knows whether the legend of his resurrection after death is true, but the only certainty is that in the time when Jesus Christ preached, he taught the mystery of Kabbalah in Judaism to his disciples.

And his disciples, based on this transcendent power, established the earliest Christianity.

This religion also believes in God, but unlike Judaism, they use the Bible "New Testament" as their teaching scriptures, believe in Christ Jesus, and use the symbol of Jesus being tied to the cross as a religious symbol, like the world to promote the Son of God, Jesus itself to pay for the sins of mankind.

From the advent of the Son of God to enlighten the twelve disciples, the first Christianity was established, but in fact the entire Christian church has been in an illegal state, and was not recognized by the Roman Empire, the most powerful country in the European continent at that time, until the Roman emperor Constant It was only during the reign of Emperor Ding that Christianity was given legal status, and since then, Christianity has also received donations from the Roman emperor and nobles, and the property of the church has grown rapidly.

In the 5th century AD, the Western Roman Empire was destroyed by the Ostrogoths of the Germanic nation, and the territory of the entire empire fell into a state of no owner. In this case, the Christian Church in Italy was organized and gradually became a The actual ruler of the central region of Italy, centered on the Christian Church, gathered a large number of vassal lords and subjects, and since then the Papal State was established.

As more and more people believed in Christianity, the upper echelons of the church were pleasantly surprised to find that the mystery they had mastered became stronger and stronger. In this case, the Knights Templar who mastered the mystery was established. The thirteen subjects of the Fahuang Hall were established, and more beliefs were gained. The mysterious power I mastered became stronger and stronger, and the stronger the power, the more people believed in it. Under this virtuous circle, Christianity began to expand rapidly. .

And just when Christianity was expanding rapidly, another group of human sages got the truth from nature and gradually mastered skills beyond ordinary people. These supernatural powers were gradually called magic by these people. People are called magicians (it is completely different from Xingyue's magicians). Among them, the most powerful magicians, through their understanding of the truth of the natural universe, gradually broke through the shackles of human life, completely surpassed the limits of human beings, and became another form of life, and the race of these people also evolved from human beings. Became a 'Magic Maker'.

At the same time, vampires, werewolves, and remnants of the age of gods gradually appeared on this land where the mystery began to become stronger.

At the beginning of Christianity, magicians and these non-human creatures lived in peace until the ninth century AD, when Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne as 'His Majesty Augustus, the great emperor entrusted by God to rule the Roman Empire', The Holy Roman Empire was born, the rule of Christianity reached its peak, and the darkest age of the Middle Ages began.

Gradually, most people began to believe in Christianity whether they were forced or voluntarily. The power of theocracy was greater than the power of kings. The mysterious power of Christianity reached its peak. In order to be able to enjoy this right exclusively, they began to kill non-human creatures and magicians wantonly, declaring They are heretics, and they claim to be orthodox. They started the Crusades, intending to eliminate Judaism, which also holds Kabbalah, and to regain the original holy land, Jerusalem.

Hundreds of years of persecution, dark creatures and magicians can only hide in order to survive, but the failure of several Crusades has caused the authority of the Pope to begin to weaken.

Now at the beginning of the fifteenth century, enlightenment thoughts gradually appeared among human beings, and Christianity, which is in charge of the mystery, was horrified to discover the decline of the mystery. The people of the world have finally set foot on this land.

Chapter 0002 Question God!

Europe, Italy, the Vatican and the Holy See.

This is the most powerful religious institution in the Western Continent. Numerous small countries attached to it are attached to this towering tree, and countries farther away also submit to it on the surface. Most of the people believed in Christianity, and the Papal State also controlled its own army and secrets, so it just dared not speak out.

And the reason why those magicians who opposed the Holy See were not completely wiped out by this huge religion is also because of the secret support of these countries, in the hope that those magicians can fight against the mystery of the Holy See.

The Vatican, the holy place for all Christians, is where most of the organs of the Holy See are located, the Pope's residence, the mysterious Thirteen Sections, the headquarters of the Templars, and the notorious Inquisition.

There are many ancient Roman buildings and living relics here. Even in this era, it looks like a historical cultural heritage. The Vatican Library, the Sistine Chapel, and the Vatican City Wall are all newly built things, and In the resplendent and resplendent church that is closest to God, the world's greatest sin remains.

"Your Majesty, what you asked for has been delivered."

Underneath the church, it was built as a solid fortress, which was used to resist the enemy's base when the Vatican was in the most critical period. However, in the most prosperous period of Christianity, it has become a place for the Holy See to hide Dirty place.

The dense stone bricks are tightly jointed, forming an integral part of the entire underground building. Countless candles that are not used by civilians are being burned on the stone brick candlesticks every few steps. If you listen carefully, you can still hear this From time to time, the wailing of women and the screaming of strange creatures, this underground building blessed by the Holy See for hundreds of years, is also the strictest prison in the world. The torture that the referees tortured them, in this God's territory, was carrying out deeds that were more cruel than demons.

The upper part of the underground building is used for military use, so it is simple and strong, while the bottom part is for the big shots to get a safe enough secret room when the Vatican is in crisis.

So the bottom part is extremely luxurious, making people feel like they have come to the palace of the Roman Empire.

This is the favorite place for the current Pope of Rome, because here, he can enjoy what he likes - child molestation!

A middle-aged bishop knelt down piously in front of the Pope, kissing his shoes, with a flattering smile on his face, he shrank himself, trying his best to please him.

"The ones delivered this time are definitely good ones. I will deliver them here myself. Your Majesty the Pope will definitely be satisfied."

"Oh, yeah..."

The Pope sitting on the chair was noncommittal. His body was a bit fat, and he was probably fifty years old. He looked as if he had been hollowed out by wine and sex, but if you looked closely, you would find that there was something in his cloudy eyes. , From time to time, a ray of light will flash.

Being able to stand out as the pope among those old fox-like cardinals, whether it is political skills, own strength, or ruthlessness, this pope is the best choice in the contemporary era.

Most of the popes in the past were not easy people, which is probably the reason why the Holy See can become stronger and stronger.

"Then bring your stuff up."

The pope said casually, his tone was not as majestic as imagined, but the bishop didn't have any thoughts of daring to disobey.

"yes……"

He quickly stood up, backed away slightly with his back to the door, and after leaving the room, he gestured to his subordinates waiting at the door.

The subordinates quickly pushed a thing beside him, allowing the bishop to take him into the Pope's living room.

This is a little boy, about twelve years old, very handsome and beautiful.

The pope sitting on the top squinted his eyes and stared at the child in front of him. His waist-length black hair was black and shiny, and his freshly washed body exuded a fragrance. He was wearing the gorgeous costume he had just put on, and he was beautiful with a girl. Same.

Although he looks like a child from an ordinary family, he has an indescribable temperament.

"Very good, very good, I am very satisfied, you step back!"

"Obey, Your Majesty!"

The bishop was overjoyed. If he could get the Pope's reward, he would probably be able to make a fortune.
