Chapter 44 Messenger

The prayer hall of the Church of the Night, as always, is dim, only the holes in the wall see a little light, like stars in the night.

Klein sat in an unobtrusive corner, took off his high hat, and began to pray like a devout believer.

He briefly mentioned the fact that Tirosel had been resurrected in the last tomb, focusing on the pollution of the "primitive moon", and specially emphasized that the emperor wanted to prevent the "red moon" in his body from being born in the real world. , voluntarily interrupted the process of the "uniqueness" of the "Dark Emperor" pathway and the return of the three Sequence 1 Extraordinary characteristics.

At the end of the prayer, Klein pointed out the hidden dangers of the "Card of Blasphemy", and expressed concern about the whereabouts of the "Mother" and "Moon" cards.

In fact, Roselle only said to be careful with the "Mother" card, and did not mention the "Moon" card, but Klein knew that both the "Earth" and "Moon" paths belonged to the "Fallen Mother", so, Caution is the most important, and the "moon" card is deliberately added.

This is also the main reason why he is worried about the "Mother of the Earth" Lilith.

Compared with most of the twenty-two pathways, the high-sequence Beyonders of the "cultivator" and "moon" pathways have a great advantage, that is, they don't need to worry about the primordial awakening in their bodies, and they are not afraid to approach There will be "split personality" underground, because the Beyonder characteristics they have are not directly derived from the original, and there is no corresponding spiritual imprint - if they go directly into the underground, into the "chaotic sea", no matter who they are, they will encounter pollution, it is only the degree of pollution. and performance will vary.

This advantage in the ancient times was probably the reason why Lilith, the ancestor of the blood family, was more special than the other ancient gods. After all, he did not need to devote a large part of his energy to the will of the antigen, and at that time, protect the invisible world of this world. The barrier is also strong enough to well block the old days of stars such as the "Fallen Mother Goddess" from the outside, making it difficult for them to exert too much influence on the situation inside.

But over time, this advantage gradually became a problem.

While the underground pollution is getting weaker and weaker, the invisible barrier is getting weaker and weaker, and some cracks have appeared. The increasingly powerful and terrifying erosion of the "Fallen Goddess" - in this respect, the dead original creator is certainly not as good as the living "Fallen Goddess".

Taking into account the influence of the outer gods beyond the sequence on their own paths, Klein believes that there must be no negligence in the corresponding matters.

After praying, he waited for another five minutes, made sure there was no response, then stood up, put on the top hat of a wandering magician, and walked out of this church that belongs to the dark night.

For him, this is mainly about fulfilling his duty of disclosure. As for what the "Goddess of the Night" intends to do,

Will he be reminded of something, he can't interfere at all.

In short, Klein can only temporarily believe that "Goddess of the Night" knows the difference between priorities.

…………

Backlund, South Bridge, Harvest Church.

Emlyn White stepped out of his carriage, glanced at the sun obscured by clouds and light mist, and put on a half-height silk top hat.

On the way to the door of the church, he gently turned the ring on his left hand, as if to show his identity.

The ring was translucent throughout, as if it was made of light red amber, with a blood-red gemstone inlaid on the top, which was the reward Emlyn won a long time ago: "Lilith's Ring".

——After becoming a demigod, Emlyn has been able to suppress the "thirst blood" attached to this ring to a certain extent. He only needs to drink three blood collection bottles of human blood every day, and he will no longer suffer the corresponding negative effects. Therefore, in order to reflect the special status of his ancestor's favor, he began to wear this ring for a long time.

After entering the Harvest Church, Emlyn automatically took off the top hat on his head.

At this time, Kasimi, Ernes and other Backlund blood clans who were waiting for Bishop Utravsky to preach stood up one after another, looked at the ground in the aisle, and said in a low voice:

"Good morning, Your Excellency."

Emlyn looked ahead and nodded invisibly:

"Is Mistral not here yet?"

"Count Mistral has set up a chapel at home." Ernes explained briefly.

Emlyn didn't comment on this behavior, just walked forward and said casually:

"But when Mass is held, I still come here."

He glanced left and right and then said:

"What about Bishop Utravsky?"

"The bishop is waiting for you at the back, the messenger of the church is here." Ernes controlled the expression on his face and answered Emlyn's question respectfully.

The messenger of the church... Emlyn turned the pink ring on his left hand and walked to the back of the church.

Soon, he saw Father Utravsky and the church messenger with black hair and curly hair in the reading room.

"This is Your Excellency Archbishop Loreto." Father Utravsky introduced to Emlyn.

He was standing by the window, almost blocking most of the light.

"Good morning, Your Excellency Loreto." Emlyn responded with the etiquette of the Church of the Earth.

Loreto smiled in a rather awkward Ruen language:

"You don't need to call me Your Excellency. Although you are not an archbishop, you have the status of an archbishop. From today onwards, you are the cleric and senior deacon of the church responsible for the affairs of the Backlund blood race."

Without giving Emlyn time to digest the news, Loreto continued:

"I came to Backlund because I was entrusted by the Apostolic See to tell you face-to-face some matters that need to be paid attention to within the church."

"Please speak." Emlyn suppressed his inner complacency and said politely.

Loreto's expression suddenly became serious:

"First of all, the most important point, whether it is a clergy member of the church or a believer of the mother goddess, as long as they claim to have obtained divine revelation, they are all tempted by the devil, without exception.

"If anyone reports something similar to you, or you have received divine revelation, please inform Bishop Utravsky as soon as possible and report it to the church."

The priest didn't mention this before... This request sounds strange, like he is suspicious of something... Emlyn frowned and looked at Father Utravsky by the window and said:

"The bishop never said to pay attention to this aspect..."

Before he finished speaking, Emlyn suddenly felt that he was blaming Bishop Utravsky by saying this, but he couldn't find a better reason for it in a hurry.

Almost at the same time, he understood the strangeness of Archbishop Loreto's words just now:

This is to tell everyone that the goddess you sensed is probably not the real goddess!

This is almost like saying that a large part of the ancestor revelations that our blood race has obtained are fake and come from the devil or the evil god... Emlyn's eyes were slightly dark, trying to maintain his demeanor and not let himself lose his temper.

At this time, Loreto did not mind smiling at all:

"Bishop Utravsky didn't tell you because he didn't know either."

The priest didn't know... In an instant, Emlyn actually felt a little sympathetic to Bishop Utravsky, feeling that as a Feysac, a clergyman who was converted later, he was influenced by the rest of the Church of the Earth. Dark exclusion.

Noticing the change in his eyes, Loreto added:

"That's because he is favored by the gods and doesn't need to care about the temptation of devils and evil gods."

Bishop Utravsky nodded and said calmly:

"The revelation of the mother goddess is in his holy scriptures. In those doctrines, everything else is heresy."

Emlyn was slightly puzzled, but he felt that there was nothing to ask, so he said "um" and said to Loreto:

"Then what's the second point to pay attention to?"

Loreto returned to his serious expression:

"If you receive an oracle, don't believe it blindly, and immediately seek confirmation from Bishop Utravsky."

"Why?" Emlyn became more and more puzzled.

This is almost telling him that it is the evil god or the devil who will respond to him.

Loreto considered the language and explained in detail:

"There are many evil beings in this world, they will pretend to be gods, deceive the clergy, and deceive believers.

"Because the two main paths of the Church of the Mother Earth are related to life, it is more severely affected than other churches. From time to time, people will go astray, try taboo life experiments, and fall a little bit.

"In order to curb such a trend, we have reorganized the church under the guidance of the mother goddess from a very early time, and established two major systems of the benefactor and the benefactor."

The benefactor and the favored one... Emlyn's knowledge of the Church of the Earth was limited to the contents of the holy scriptures and some scriptures, and he was a bit at a loss for a while.

He never took the initiative to ask Father Utravsky about the Church of the Earth.

Loreto glanced at Emlyn and nodded slightly:

"The benefactors refer to the priests who are favored by the mother goddess in the two paths of 'earth' and 'moon', and the goddesses refer to those who come from the outside and come from other paths.

"The latter are less influenced by demons and evil gods, and can help us identify the truth of oracles from falsehoods.

"Under such a premise, even the decree issued by the Apostolic See must be countersigned by at least one favored person, otherwise it can be regarded as invalid."

While speaking, Loreto took out a document and unfolded it for Emlyn to see. The main content on it, apart from what the archbishop had just said, was the part he accepted as an envoy.

At the end of the document, there were several names side by side. The first one belonged to the Apostle of the Church of the Earth, Mistress Roland, and the following series were not known to Emlyn. Only the last one, he could barely identify was Father Utravsky. .

The priest's words are really ugly... While muttering to himself, Emlyn had strong doubts about the two systems of divine favor and divine favor.

Why are the favored ones less tempted by evil gods or demons?

Why can they tell the truth of oracles from falsehoods, but the benefactors can't?

While his thoughts were spinning, Emlyn suddenly noticed a detail:

Those who are favored by God do not belong to the two paths of "earth" and "moon"!

So, it's not the charismatic ones that are in question, but the two paths themselves? Emlyn vaguely felt that his guess might be the truth.
