Chapter 322 Triple Identities
The name of this Greenbrook town is "Meteor", and the town has a population of only five or six thousand people. However, they all worship the Recast Church on the surface, but they seem lifeless all day long.
The use of machinery is very common in the town. Many townspeople have undergone mechanical transformation. Some people, even those who are originally healthy, are willing to remove some of their limbs and transform into machines.
The God of Recasting gives new oracles to the "chief" of the Recast Church almost every year, and those oracles contain new knowledge. The chief, as the leader of the church, will convey the new knowledge to the bishops, and the bishops will pass it on to the numerous Recast priests.
The knowledge contained in those oracles is very useful, and the priests of the Recast Church do not think that they should keep it secret. Instead, the chief will ask the priests to find ways to spread that knowledge and its corresponding applications as much as possible.
It is for this reason that many lords and nobles welcome their arrival, so the spread of the Recast Church is getting faster and faster. It was just an unrecognized heretic sect a few decades ago, but now its power has gradually caught up with the weakest Silver Moon Church.
After coming to this town, Felix also came into contact with a lot of new knowledge, and his skills in mechanics are also increasing day by day.
He suddenly felt that joining the Recast Church seemed to be beneficial to both the Sequence Transcendents of the Path of Casting and the Path of Knowledge.
At night, in dreams, Felix would constantly assemble machinery and master more sequence power.
As one of the assistant priests of the Recast Bishop Isabel, he began to help Isabel deal with some affairs, but compared with the other two assistant priests, Felix always dealt with things a little more outside.
He never got to know some of the core secrets about Isabel herself.
It was just that not long after joining the Recast Church, Isabel began to often tell Felix some... very strange things.
According to her, Felix could try to get in touch with and understand some other religious knowledge. "Learning" is something that the Recast Church encourages very much, so he can definitely learn those heretical knowledge.
Isabel crossed her arms and said coldly:
"Go and learn more. With my approval, it is not against the rules for you to get in touch with those heretical things."
Then Isabel took him to a basement under a cathedral, and many heretical knowledge collected by the Recast Church soon came into Felix's eyes.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your guidance, Bishop Isabel."
That night, Felix began to learn a lot of knowledge here, and also read a book called "Those Great Existences in the World".
"Those Great Existences in the World" records the 24 known gods in the world. They represent a moment, from zero to twenty-three o'clock, and each moment has a symbolic god.
So that's it, the Singer of Silence and the Star of Chaos are all gods from the outer world...
Well, the dream world also has its own gods, the King of Eternal Nightmare...
Felix took a deep breath and read those names silently, without actually saying them out loud, because there was a warning in big red letters at the beginning of the book.
"Don't read their names!"
Perhaps, just reading their names may be noticed...
The Lord of Ashes at zero o'clock symbolizes chaos and destruction.
The Moon of Eternal Life at one o'clock symbolizes the feminine energy.
The Singer of Silence at two o'clock symbolizes death and silence.
The King of Eternal Nightmare at three o'clock symbolizes dreams.
...
The last one is the Mist of the White Beyond at twenty-three o'clock, which symbolizes knowledge.
"Huh."
When Felix finished reading the book thoroughly, he felt creepy deep in his heart, because every god from the outer world written here looked very scary.
According to what is written in the book, the power possessed by the gods from the outer world may even be one tier stronger than the gods.
After a while, he gradually felt that something was wrong with Isabel.
One day, Isabel mentioned by chance that the Star Embracers' belief in "Chaos Stars" might also bring positive meanings, and Felix's strange feeling in his heart became stronger.
"Why did she say that?"
"What is she hinting at?"
He pondered.
In the following period of time, Isabel began to discuss things about the Outer Gods with Felix frequently, and even took the initiative to tell Felix about their greatness.
She said coldly:
"As a believer of the God of Recasting, I don't want to admit it, but the gods outside the world are the most powerful gods. They are feared by all beings in the multiverse and have great power."
Felix asked: "The so-called gods outside the world, do those evil gods have such powerful power?"
Isabel nodded and said: "Indeed, although I don't want to really admit it, the Recasting Church and the God of Recasting both encourage us to pursue the laws and objective facts of the world."
"Since the objective facts are like this, then we should not avoid it."
"Yes, I understand."
Felix nodded lightly, but felt very strange deep in his heart, because most of the believers of the Recasting Church believed that the God of Recasting was the most powerful god.
Isabel's situation is different from theirs. She is the bishop of the Recast Church, but there are some "inconsistent" strange things in her behavior and words.
A few days later, it was a dark night.
Felix was walking calmly on the road, but suddenly he met Isabel who was walking from the opposite side. The woman was wearing black and red armor today, her eyes were very cold, and she was dragging a tattered corpse in her hands.
The corpse was bleeding red, and Felix was stunned and stared at the other party.
"Bishop Isabel?"
Isabel nodded gently, threw the corpse on the ground, and said: "Felix, come and help me deal with him... Hurry up, he is a traitor!"
"Okay, I understand!"
Felix walked over immediately and was shocked to find the true identity of the corpse. He was one of the two assistant priests besides himself!
"Why him?"
"Don't ask."
Although he was full of confusion and doubts, when he saw Isabel's cold eyes, he knew he couldn't refuse, so he silently disposed of the body.
"Very good."
"Don't tell anyone about this."
Felix fell into deep thought, vaguely aware that he had fallen into a trap.
He could only pray to the great Lord of Lost.
Sure enough, Isabel often found Felix and preached about... Chaos Star, and most of them were positive comments!
Late at night, Isabel took Felix out of the church.
"Compared to making the world perfect, if we can go to a perfect world, it may be a better choice."
"There is a perfect world on Chaos Star, and those who believe in it can get a perfect life after death..."
Felix only felt cold sweat wet his back, his throat moved, and he wanted to speak, but he felt that he couldn't say anything.
Suddenly, Isabel said with a sense of oppression: "Join the Star Embrace Society, Felix."
Felix looked into the woman's eyes and felt an exaggerated sense of power. If he dared to refuse, he would only have the possibility of death.
Although he was confused about why the Star Embrace Society recruited people so rudely and how to ensure loyalty, he still had to nod.
"I do."
Isabel calmly took out a black seven-pointed star stone sculpture.
"Raise your head."
Felix was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and was shocked to see a huge black star in the sky.
The surface of the black star was covered with many giant eyes, staring at everything in the world, as if the past and the future had been included in it, and no one's fate could escape His control. The chaotic power emitted by the planet was endless, and all things would fall into crazy chaos!
"Ahhh!"
Felix's heart was beating wildly, and he screamed loudly. The crazy, indescribable, and indescribable information in his mind almost swallowed himself.
He fainted on the ground, and a black seven-pointed star full of chaotic aura appeared on his chest.
Isabel looked calm, took the unconscious Felix to the room of the cathedral, and said calmly:
"You will become one of us, and become a citizen of the stars!"
It was not until she left that the red mark on Felix's hand suddenly glowed, and a very magical scene appeared. The black seven-pointed star gradually faded until it finally disappeared completely.
