Chapter 947: The Disappearing Church

This scene made Holy Master Black feel that things were a little out of control. His brain quickly thought about the reasons for all this, and immediately took a step forward, trying to control the situation: "Everyone, don't mess up! Be devout to the Moon God! His The light shines on the earth, and you and I will gain strength from it..."

It was still the usual set of rhetoric, but Black turned his head at this time, even as an elder arcanist, he was almost scared back a few steps by the scene in front of him - the original idol turned out to be like an activated magic circle at this time Same, the whole body exudes the same silver-white light as the moonlight. That peaceful face seemed to come alive, and when looking over, Black even felt that his eyes met those soft pupils.

What made him even more horrified was that Black felt that the lips of the idol were moving slowly, as if he was talking about something.

Arcane magic will not have this effect, nor will elemental magic, natural magic, or even all the magic known to Black, but a bright light suddenly flashed in his mind and made his expression freeze: that In this notebook that records various rules of the "Luna Cult", there are also records of "miracles".

Arcanists' understanding of "miracles" is "magic tricks". Just like what they did to attract believers, how can ordinary people distinguish between true and false through several spells to create effects? Not everyone was an arcanist in the period of the High Elves. Blake judged others by himself, and believed that the "Luna Cult" of that period also used similar means.

However, everything in front of him told him that things were far from being as simple as he imagined.

The luster of the statue lingers, as if it has life. The moon in the sky has an obvious halo - if you stare at the moon, you will find that there will be curtains of light hanging down all around. At the beginning, Panda and others tried their best to simulate the so-called "light curtain" with arcane magic in order to create the effect, but those lights could only be seen by people in a small town. At this moment, Black stared at Haoyue, but he was sure... The height of the light curtains probably exceeded tens of thousands of meters. Not to mention Panda, even if the great arcanist was alive, he would not be able to create spells of this scale!

In other words, this is a sight that can be seen all over the world, and it is not a "trick" at all.

"Hey..."

Black suddenly felt a force in his body rushing against his internal organs, his body shook, and he quickly covered his mouth with his hands. After coughing twice, the Holy Master found that his palm was full of blood.

When the Arcanist's world view collapses, the power under his control will involuntarily backlash, and the blood in his hand will make Black's face turn pale—because if it continues, he will probably die silently due to the energy backlash !

"I can't die... I can't die like this..."

He muttered something, wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth vigorously, raised his head, facing the light hanging down from the infinite deep space, and began to recite the prayer that he had read countless times...

Violent energy rushed through his body. Although it was painful, Blake endured it forcefully—the voices of the believers became louder and louder, and they completely gave up on the moon god for this miracle of a scale far beyond the past. And when the light curtain gradually disappeared, Black finally opened his eyes that had been closed for a long time.

"Praise the Moon God..."

As the arcanist acknowledged the existence of the gods in his heart, a cool feeling suddenly spread throughout his body. Black shivered violently, and he took a deep breath. The cold wind had already made his body unbearable, but at this moment, Black felt that he had returned to his youth in an instant, and his limbs were full of strength.

"Master Holy Master!"

Hearing the voices from both sides, he turned his head and found that the arcanists beside him were all looking at him in astonishment. He raised his eyebrows slightly: "What's wrong?"

"You, your hair..."

Blake reached out and pulled the combed hair to his eyes, only to find that his original gray hair had turned into a silver color similar to moonlight—then he found that his hands were no longer dry and wrinkled, but plump and full The skin is delicate.

Clenching his fists, Black slowly inhaled, feeling this new power, and finally said: "Continue the ceremony."

It was originally a ritual of fooling around, but under the miracle, it became a grand gathering of the "Luna Religion"-the light curtain in the sky ended after everyone's prayers were recited, which made the believers even more suspicious of the moon. He firmly believes in the existence of the god Strian, and is completely devoted to the spokesperson of the moon god on the ground, "Holy Lord Black"...

Until midnight, when Black announced that the ceremony was over, the believers still refused to disperse. Many people still knelt on the ground and kept calling the name of the moon god. After careful questioning, Blake realized that many of the believers in the crowd who were originally physically disabled or had illnesses were cured or greatly improved in the light curtain.

Obviously, what today's ceremony brings is not only a visual shock, but also a practical effect that can be accepted and convinced by the general public.

Blake, who returned to the magic tower, didn't say a word, and the cronies who usually spoke casually also kept silent at this time. Arcanists are smart people, and of course they understand what happened today. However, it is obviously difficult for a group of arcanists descended from high elves to accept the facts.

Several people had passed out and passed out because of the violent backlash. At this time, Black's cronies and subordinates also turned pale. Holy Lord Blake sat there in front of the fire for a long time before he spoke wearily: "From now on, there will be only the 'Luna Sect', and there will be no 'Holy Meeting' anymore."

Everyone raised their heads abruptly, hesitating to speak. But no matter how much they said in their hearts, the facts in front of them were undeniable. They looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally saluted respectfully: "I will follow the teachings of my lord."

"Go back and rest first."

Black, whose face was nearly twenty years younger, waved his hand to let everyone leave. When he was the only one left in the room, the complex-minded pope returned to the study in a trance. After opening the mechanism with the six magic secret locks, he carefully placed the black book in it under arcane control on the table.

This is the "notebook" of the "Luna believer" that Blake mentioned before. When the booklet was taken out from the ruins, it was actually in a state of "breaking at the touch of a touch", with some pages already missing. However, after being solidified with arcane magic, most of the contents of this booklet were finally preserved.

Blake read it before, just to copy the "ceremony" and "prayer" links in it. The other scattered words have only been read briefly, and many details have been forgotten. But after the situation happened today, he realized that this manual might be the only clue to explore the root cause.

Turning the pages of the book, Blake began to carefully read word by word. When the mentality changed, many contents that were originally in one glance and ten lines began to become profound in meaning. The writer of the note is a devout believer, but the content in the book actually contains a lot of personal emotions, and it should look like a "diary". There are some trivial matters within the sect, including various inside stories about the promotion and selection of priests. At the same time, there are also the author's own views on religion and arcanists.

In the past, Blake scoffed at the views of writers and often skipped large passages. However, when he read it again today, he had a new feeling... What's more, he suddenly saw a familiar name.

"...The battle among the Arcanists is becoming more and more fierce, Luna, why do these unsatisfied compatriots start attacking each other in pursuit of power? I heard that there have been several serious violent conflicts, it is too It's heartbreaking...Sumi's behavior is obviously extreme, but this is not the reason why he is wanted."

"Sumi."

Blake reached out and picked up the stone on the table next to him: it was brought back from the ruins by a mercenary named "Ludi", and it belonged to a powerful "old school" arcanist who had The nickname on the website is "Sumi the one-armed".

He didn't know whether the two names referred to the same person, but continuing to look down, Black accidentally found a paragraph that he hadn't noticed: "...I heard the news of Su Mi's death today, and the things he did. As for the matter, I can only say that my previous judgment was wrong. Arcane art is a kind of monster, without the gods to tame it, it will eventually become a beast that devours everything...Sumi's madness is too—"

The handwriting stopped abruptly here, and Black found that the next few pages should have fallen off and been damaged. There must be nowhere to find these lost pages, because when they were taken out from the ruins and turned for the first time, more than ten of them were shattered on the spot and could not be repaired at all. Think of it as the missing part right now.

What was revealed in these news made Black realize that the "one-armed Sumi" might not be as simple as he thought before. This "madman" known as the "old school" in other texts seems to have done something outrageous?

Thinking that the purpose of Panda and the others was to find the remains of Sumi, and that the mercenaries were attacked by a magician before, he squinted his eyes, walked out of the study immediately, and asked his relatives: "Organize the manpower immediately!" , to inform Panda..."
