Chapter 320 Holy Gift, Level II Authority!
Why did the saint come here? ... Luo Xiu thought to himself that he had arrived in front of the Holy See of Archbishop Sid and Saint Franya.
He did not look directly at Saint Franya, but glanced at her general image from the corner of his eye.
She is wearing a pure white cloak, and half of her snow-white hair hangs down from both sides of her face, fluttering gently; her sitting posture is dignified and serene, with her hands folded on her knees, like the most beautiful girl in the world. Exquisite dolls or sculptures.
The gauze edge of the cloak just covered half of her face, and her complete face could not be seen clearly, leaving only a delicate porcelain outline. It is not difficult to imagine the beautiful appearance under the veil.
Through the veil, Luo Xiu could vaguely see that the saint in front of him had her eyes slightly closed, as if she had not seen his arrival.
Luo Xiu could feel that a quiet, peaceful, pure and sacred spiritual aura was exuding from around Saint Franya.
It is as if that is the natural domain of Saint Franya. Just by being close to her, Luo Xiu felt a faint sense of security emerge from the bottom of his heart.
Luo Xiu is no stranger to this [Glorious] Saint.
Only from the memory of his previous life, Luo Xiu knew that the "Glory Saint" Franya Meyerling was a saint of the sixth level of destiny, and would soon break through that shackles and ascend to the throne. The real "human limit".
She is the pope of the "Holy Court" and the designated successor of the "Holy Crown" Lorende Mayerling.
When Franya was twelve years old, a cardinal of the "Holy Court" discovered her extremely high aptitude for brilliance. After that, she was personally adopted by Pope Lorende.
Because Franya was born as an orphan whose parents died early, even Franya herself did not know her original surname. Therefore, she was personally given a surname by Pope Lorende and received the " Franya Meyerling's full name.
Pope Lorende and the cardinals of the "Holy Court" have high expectations for Franya.
Under the devoted training of Pope Lorende and all the cardinals, Franya's growth has far exceeded the "Holy Court's" original expectations for her——
In just one year, she was promoted from having no contact with extraordinary mortals to the fourth level of destiny. After that, it only took her two years to break through the bottleneck of "becoming a saint" and promoted to the fifth level of destiny. Two years later, she was promoted to the "Sixth Level of Destiny" again, and since then she has truly entered the core of the holy power of the "Holy Court"!
With such a fast promotion speed, Franya has far left almost all the priests in the "Holy Court" behind.
Even Pope Lorende's promotion speed was far slower than hers. It was precisely because of this that Pope Lorende and all the cardinals saw infinite things in Franya. potential and a bright future.
She therefore received the name "Saint", and Pope Lorende personally awarded her a laurel crown, and announced her as the sole heir to the throne of the "Holy Court".
It is precisely because of this that Pope Lorende has higher expectations for her - he hopes that Franya can surpass him and realize the "eightfold destiny". The higher realm that can be reached - promotion to the "nine levels of destiny"! That exists in theory, and it is the end point of [Destiny Path] that no one has ever touched!
That may be the realm that truly belongs to the "gods"... It is the pillar gods belonging to the Nine Destiny Paths, and the mysteries that will be revealed only at their level.
But that is also very, very far away.
At least for now - Saint Franya, who is the same eighteen-year-old as Luo Xiu, has been a saint for a year now.
Why did she come here...to seek an opportunity to break through the "sixth level of destiny" and advance to the seventh level? Or for other things...
Luo Xiu kept guessing in his mind. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at Saint Franya on the Holy Throne. She still maintained her previous sitting posture. That cold, dignified sense of holiness seemed to be indifferent and indifferent to everything around him.
Luo Xiu also left her alone for the time being, and first performed the sacraments to Archbishop Sid and extended his sacred greetings to him.
"Greetings to you again, may the sun protect you and bless you, may you shine forever, my dear archbishop."
Luo Xiu greeted you so piously and respectfully, Xi Archbishop De nodded slightly.
"Well...Roseux Carlos."
"Hubert told me about you. He always talked about your excellence. Looking at it now...well , Hubert is indeed right.”
"You have made quite brilliant achievements in Red Maple City, Luo Xiu. I have always wanted to meet you, haha... Now that the war on the border has basically calmed down, you have finally arrived..."
Sid’s voice was calm and heavy, with a special magnetism, and said:
“Your [Glory] spirituality is surging and pure, I can feel it - it is like hiding in the clouds The light of the sun always exudes a light that warms the world."
"You are the 'Divine Apostle'. I was still doubting it, but now it seems...Hubert is here. What I told you in the letter is indeed true..."
"You were promoted to the 'Fifth Life Path' at the age of eighteen...You have achieved such an achievement, eh, this is the case in the entire 'Holy Court'. It’s quite rare.”
"Haha, Luo Xiu. I was still thinking about what kind of young man Hubert could praise him and say that he has a talent that is almost like a 'saint'... Now, I finally understand."
"You are overly complimentary, Archbishop." Luo Xiu nodded slightly and responded humbly.
“You are very humble, Luo Xiu.” Sid nodded, “That’s good, but you should also know what kind of rewards you will get for your achievements.”
< br>"——Roseux Carlos, you have shattered the offensive attempts of the Dark Principality's army several times, repelled the 'Executioner' Koros and the 'Hidden Elder' Babron, and collaborated with Hubert to purify the raging The 'Death God's Heir' in Red Maple City..."
"Oh, Luo Xiu, you don't know how many priests you have made feel inspired and excited by your achievements. ”
He remembers it so clearly... Even though they are two places apart, Archbishop Sid clearly knows things related to himself as a 'bishop'... Luo Xiu thought to himself.
"Even if you say that, it is my responsibility."
Luo Xiu then remained firm and responded with a calm and steady attitude, "And to be praised like this by you, that is my responsibility. "It's an honor."
"Haha, very good, Luo Xiu..."
Sid smiled and nodded again.
"I have felt it, your piety and enthusiasm for the way of [Glory]."
"Hubert did not misjudge you, you are a talent worth cultivating."
< br>"..."
This time, Luo Xiu did not respond to Archbishop Sid immediately.
His intuition told him that Archbishop Sid would soon say the following.
Just as he expected, Archbishop Sid continued:
“Luo Xiu, although Hubert has already asked you once, I still want to invite you again——”
"Are you willing to just stay in Songyuan City, stay in the main church, and become a member of the 'Church of Bishops'?"
"Rosio Carlos, Hubert should have asked you As I said, we will give you the most resources and the best teachings.”
“And if you are good enough, we can also report you to the Holy Court, and you may be crowned the Pope. I give you the crown of laurel and give you the name of 'Holy Son'."
"What do you think, Luo Xiu?" Sure enough... before coming to see the Archbishop, Luo Xiu had thought that Archbishop Sid might invite him again.
But his ambition did not change because of this, just as he once said to Hubert, he also said to Archbishop Sid:
“I am grateful for your kindness, but I can’t leave, dear archbishop.”
“You know, Red Maple City is in a critical location. Even if Koros and Babel are temporarily retreated, they are still surrounded by powerful enemies, and even more powerful enemies are still around. Enemies like the 'CEO' are watching."
After a pause, Luo Xiu continued:
"Therefore, high-ranking people in the church are not suitable for temporary replacement... Moreover, what I can feel is that the path I should take is 'Judgment' - the borderland, and that battlefield of Judgment is the most suitable destination for me. . ”
“I can feel that just because I am doing things that are in line with my own path, I can keep improving and continuously receive His power...”
“ Therefore, dear archbishop, "I still hope to stay in Red Maple City. For the sake of the empire and the Holy Court, I will judge all heretics until I see no more." Any darkness and haze"
"..."
"Alas." Archbishop Sid let out a long sigh. His eyes were lowered, as if he was quite disappointed with Luo Xiu's answer.
"I understand, Luo Xiu."
After that, Sid said slowly:
"According to the precepts of the 'Holy Court', I will respect someone' Bishop's choice... But remember, Luo Xiu. If you change your mind at some point in the future, the bishops of the General Church will always leave a seat for you. "
Huh... Archbishop. Luo Xiu finally breathed a sigh of relief because he didn't insist on the invitation.
Afterwards, Archbishop Sid said to Luo Xiu:
"Although you rejected my invitation, Luo Xiu, your achievements are still indelible."
"I will Give you the holy gift you deserve - a 'legendary' holy weapon, a second-level holy seal of authority, or a secret sacred skill... choose, and I will give it to you."
Legendary equipment, Level II authority, or the sacred knowledge of [Glory]... Sid asked Luo Xiu to choose between the three, and Luo Xiu fell into thinking.
To be honest, he doesn't have much need for equipment now. As for the [Glory] skills... In Luo Xiu's memory, most of the "Glory" skills he can learn in the fifth life path It will not bring qualitative changes to the improvement of strength, and they are not too rare. Luo Xiu has other ways to obtain them.
What he was most interested in was the Level II authority promised by Archbishop Sid. This is also the most rare one - even if it is only Level I authority, Luo Xiu only has three. Level II authority is even rarer. For Luo Xiu now, there is almost no way to obtain it.
Without worrying too much, Luo Xiu said to Archbishop Sid:
“Thank you for your holy gift, Archbishop.”
“In this case, I hope to get A second-level Holy Seal of Authority."
"Okay, I agree." Archbishop Sid nodded.
Then, under Luo Xiu's gaze, Archbishop Sid raised his arm and stretched out two fingers.
Golden light burst out from his fingertips, and golden threads full of [brilliance] spirituality surged, lingered and gathered on them, eventually forming three groups of tailing streams of light chasing each other.
Sid pressed his fingers, and the three streams of light flew towards Luo Xiu, stopped in front of Luo Xiu, and unfolded into a brilliant golden light curtain with complex lines.
There seemed to be ancient inscriptions written on it. Luo Xiu did not recognize them, but his panel did-
[Sacred Seal of God’s Admonition], this is the first inscription and represents 'Intermediate authority'.
That is the authority of the Holy Seal that can use a body other than God to declare God. Those who are declared by [Divine Admonition Seal] will forcibly remove 3~6 status buffs or debuffs that are not [Glory], lock the current status, and ignore the "cannot be purified" and "cannot be expelled" attached to the status. ” entry effect.
[Saint Seal of Redemption], this is the second inscription, representing the ‘intermediate authority’.
That is the authority of the Holy Seal that allows the owner of the authority to "redempt" the sacred realm on a large scale. The field of "Redemption" will last for 10 seconds, which can invalidate most skills that are not [Glory]. At the same time, the intensity of the [Glory] skills that will be used in the "Redemption" field will be greatly enhanced.
[Spirit Seal], this is the third inscription, representing the ‘intermediate authority’.
That is the power of the Holy Seal that can seal the spirituality, and can suppress the spirituality in the body of extraordinary people who are not [brilliant] destiny within a certain threshold range for a long time. If this threshold is exceeded, the overflowing spirituality will turn into "violent spirituality", causing extremely serious backlash to them.
...
In general, these three authority imprints correspond to the three aspects of "purification", "domain" and "weakening".
And the [Sacred Seal of God's Admonition] among them made Luo Xiu suddenly aware of the threat.
If this level II authority is not obtained from the [Glory] path, it would actually be a huge threat to Luo Xiu - because the "crazy believers" status of the "Holy Abyss Apostles" can It was lifted by the "divine admonishment" of this authority, but fortunately, the Archbishop Sid who currently controls this authority is [Glory], and he cannot lift the effect of "Crazy Piety" which is also [Glory].
As for the second item [Saint Seal of Redemption], it is not bad, it is a relatively standard domain authority.
As for the third item [Seal of Souls], Luo Xiu was familiar with it - because during the crisis in Sina City, he had heard Bishop Fabian talk about it more than once, the predecessor Alfonso Duran. The special bishop once held this second-level authority, and the "Lord of Blood Sacrifice" was also deeply tortured by this holy seal of authority and has still not been able to get rid of it.
Because it was related to Bishop "Alfonso Durant", Luo Xiu originally wanted to choose [Spirit Seal], but after thinking about it, there seemed to be not many occasions where he might be able to use it. In the end, I gave up this idea.
Suppressing spirituality is equivalent to solidifying the opponent's bottleneck, which is more suitable for fighting a protracted battle, or making it more difficult for a seriously injured opponent to recover from a serious injury... But that is not Luo Xiu's fighting style.
In the end, he chose the first authority, the authority of [God's Holy Seal].
He then mobilized his own spirituality, letting his spirituality "fit" the light curtain of the first holy seal, and gradually "integrated", "digested" and "understood" the power of this authority. content.
At the same time, the other two light curtains inscribed with the holy seal that appeared in front of Luo Xiu gradually became dim and finally disappeared.
When Luo Xiu chose the second-level authority [Sacred Seal of Divine Admonition], a new second-level authority skill also appeared in his skill column.
[Acquire the skill "Sacred Seal of Divine Admonition (Glory, Level II Authority, lv.1)"]
[Sacred Seal of Divine Admonition (Glory, Level II Authority, lv.1): After applying the 'Divine Seal' to the designated target, it will be forced Strips away 3~6 status buffs or debuffs that are not [Glory], and cannot obtain new buffs or debuffs for a certain period of time (currently 1 hour), and ignores the "unpurifiable" and "non-purifying" attached to the status. "Indestructible" entry effect. (This authority can only be used once every 24 hours)]
[……]
"You chose the 'divine report'..." Archbishop Sid looked at the light curtain dissipating in front of Luo Xiu and nodded lightly.
“A good choice,” Archbishop Sid said:
“It will definitely help you go further.”
