Chapter 341 The Coming "Blasphemy"
...Let me preside over the ceremony of "Divine Prophecy"?
Listening to Archbishop Sid's words, Luo Xiu nodded and responded piously:
"No problem, Archbishop."
"That is my duty."
His last task of "divine revelation" has been completed, and now there is a new number of times, and Archbishop Sid asked him to "ask for instructions on their future" again - this is easy to complete.
As long as it doesn’t make him jump and ask for instructions about the [Abyss]-related oracle, then it’s easy to say.
......
Seeing Luo Xiu agree immediately, Archbishop Sid showed an indifferent smile on his face.
Actually, there were many things that he wanted Luo Xiu, as the "Shenhui Apostle", to ask for instructions from the Great Sun.
——The specific situation of [Abyss], the crisis that "Hidden Sage" Hoffman and "Chief Executioner" Fafnir will bring, the possible influence of [Supreme], etc... But in general, these It is better to directly ask the final result and the oracle about the "future" is more convenient.
"Very good, Luo Xiu."
Archbishop Sid smiled and said, "Your piety and ability are obvious to all. After the ceremony of your 'divine revelation' is successfully completed, I I will give you the reward you deserve as your reward."
"Saint" Franya beside Archbishop Sid did not speak, but looked at Luo Xiu quietly and nodded lightly. nodded.
“So, Archbishop, and Her Royal Highness the Holy Lady.”
Luo Xiu then nodded to Sid and Franya, and then asked humbly:
"About the ceremony of the 'Divine Prophecy' - when do you want me to preside over the ceremony?"
“…”
“Afternoon, Luo Xiu.”
Archbishop Sid said slowly:
"If there is nothing else, then in the afternoon - before that, you can stay in the church temporarily and make some preparations first."
"Okay, Archbishop."
< br>Luo Xiu nodded and still responded humbly:
“It’s up to you.”
……
Afterwards, Luo Xiu said goodbye to Archbishop Sid and Saint Franya, and temporarily withdrew from the Holy Temple.
Archbishop Sid asked him to stay in the church for the time being. Luo Xiu went to his room in the 'Healing Place' and took a nap in the medicinal soup of the 'Holy Spring' to replenish some sleep.
After taking a bath, the last remaining injuries on Luo Xiu's body were completely healed, and his upper limit of health finally returned to its maximum value.
After completing the publicly funded treatment, Luo Xiu left the "healing place" again and visited various sanctuaries in the main church -
He first went to visit "The Enlightener" Richchester.
The bishop who was most seriously injured in the battle of "Black Crystal Factory" has regained consciousness under the careful treatment of the archbishop and other clergy.
In Richester's status bar, the abnormal status entry of [Taboo Infestation·Deep Ignorance] has been "purified" by the authority, but the injuries on his body have only been healed less than half, and he is not yet able to Feel free to get out of bed and move around.
However, his injury will not get worse. Under the careful care of Archbishop Sid and other [Glory] Saints, it was only a matter of time before Richester recovered.
When he saw Luo Xiu coming to visit him, Richester had a slightly surprised and happy expression on his face. He chatted with Luo Xiu many stories about the General Church, and finally expressed to Luo Xiu Some envy:
"...Oh, I am also a 'bishop', but I can only lie in bed sickly."
Ruicester said this, and Luo Xiu comforted him with kind words and asked him to rest well.
After that, after visiting Bishop Richchester, Luo Xiu said goodbye to him and went to visit other saints who were also recovering from injuries——
"Glory Knight" Gulambaatar, Evans, Adele, and Harder have also recovered most of their injuries and are currently undergoing rehabilitation.
They will probably be able to return to their priesthood positions tomorrow, and when they saw Luo Xiu, they each showed some surprise and joy.
After chatting with them for a while and confirming that the saints who participated in the Holy Judgment of the "Black Crystal Factory" were in good condition, Luo Xiu left with peace of mind and turned to his second destination. land.
......
Songyuan City Church, the Sanctuary of Prisoners.
As the name suggests, this is a prison where heretics are imprisoned - the "Hidden Elder" Babron is imprisoned here, and besides him, there are also other vicious heretics.
Luo Xiu came to the obsidian door of the sanctuary, and the priest on duty blocked the way and asked him about his purpose.
Luo Xiu showed him the Holy Emblem of his "Bishop" and the certificate given to him by the Archbishop before he was allowed to enter the Evil Prison Sanctuary to explore the "Hidden Elder" "The state of Babylon.
Under the leadership of the priests on duty, Luo Xiu entered the dark prison corridor, facing the deep darkness in front of him and kept walking deeper. Under the surveillance of the heavy prisoners, he saw that he had been tightly imprisoned. The "Hidden Sage" Babron——
His neck, hands His wrists and ankles were tightly bound by shackles engraved with golden inscriptions, and the upper half of his head was bound by iron hoops engraved with dense sacred patterns, completely blocking his eyes, ears, and nostrils from the outside world. of perception, leaving only one mouth for eating, inhaling and exhaling.
But he has not eaten for two days - no matter which destiny path he is on, a saint who has reached the "fifth level of destiny" will not starve to death easily if he does not eat, but he will still become dizzy. , the consciousness becomes dim.
This is the case with Babylon. He seemed to feel that someone was coming in front of him, but his spirituality had been tightly controlled and he could not tell who it was. He could only open his mouth slightly and make a weak voice:
"Who... …Who…”
"..."
"Can he hear it?" Luo Xiu asked the priest on the side.
"No." The cleric replied immediately, "His spirituality has been suppressed and his perception has been blocked. He can only hear very weak sounds."
"That's it." Luo Xiu nodded, indicating understanding.
While he was talking to the clergyman, Luo Xiu was observing whether there was any unusual movement in Babylon, but Babylon only opened and closed his mouth and repeated "Who..." Who is it?" He was not even aware of the conversation taking place in front of him.
His current state, let alone "escape from prison", is very difficult to survive.
Originally, the appearance of "Hidden Sage" Hoffman made Luo Xiu a little worried about the prisoner robbery. But considering that they may not know that Babylon is being imprisoned here... plus the Songyuan City Church has been alerted to this, Luo Xiu no longer worries about variables.
Luo Xiu was relieved and imprisoned Babylon here, which seemed to be safe.
After observing Babelun for a while to ensure that his condition was under control, Luo Xiu left the Evil Prison Sanctuary and returned to the "Healing Sanctuary" to rest until the afternoon.
……
Around three o'clock in the afternoon.
Songyuan Castle Church, in front of the Xumo Altar.
Archbishop Sid has cleared the area around the altar, leaving only the clergymen whose ranks are above the "holy ones". As the attendants of the ceremony, they have stood in their respective positions.
Archbishop Sid and “Saintess” Franya were already standing closest to the core of the altar, asking “Bishop” Luo Xiu in front of them:
“Luo Xiu , are you ready?”
At this time, Luo Xiu had changed into the most holy and solemn clerical clothing. He held the scepter [Holy Grip] symbolizing the bishop with both hands, nodded and responded:
"I am fully prepared. "
"When I raise my scepter high, Archbishop Sid, please, and Her Majesty the Holy Lady, please spread the sacred spirit of [Glory] as much as possible. , and gave Him sincere praise.”
“May the Great Sun protect us and give us clear guidance.”
“Okay,” Archbishop Sid. Franya nodded, then watched Luo Xiu, stepping up the long steps to the altar step by step, and arrived at the center of the Xuyu Altar——
Luo Xiu cast several auxiliary holy spells on himself in succession, so that the spirituality of [Glory] was in the process of continuous improvement and purification, and temporarily eliminated all disturbing thoughts.
At the same time, the technical knowledge of "divine revelation" began to emerge in his mind.
Soon, the spirituality of [Glory] has been filled to the highest point. Luo Xiu has vaguely seen the "eternal kingdom" full of divine radiance, and the shadow of the kingdom of God has appeared in his mind. In front of you. A sacred, vague whisper came from a moment in his ears -
Om! The sound from "Xu Mo" has been transformed into multiple buzzes and overlapped in one place.
On the outline of Luo Xiu's body, a faint glow has been draped over him like a veil, and his "divinity" has been inspired like never before, as if he standing on the altar at this moment is the one The incarnation of the Great Sun!
At the same time, Luo Xiu opened his golden eyes and raised his scepter to the sky!
Archbishop Sid and Saint Franya immediately knelt down to "Luo Xiu", performed the most pious sacraments toward "Luo Xiu" and even toward "Xu Mo", and began to sing loudly Hymns to Him.
Behind them, rows of saints also knelt down to Luo Xiu. While praising him for a moment, they spread all the sacred spirituality of [Glory] outward.
The bright golden light that continued to emanate from their bodies, along with the light from the scepter in Luo Xiu's hand, continued to fill and echo in the sky.
"——I pray for guidance."
"——I pray for our bright future!"
During the chorus of pious carols, Luo Xiu prayed loudly.
And the invisible existence descended.
The sacred will was shrouded, turning into clear and broken pictures, and ancient and low murmurs, flashing in front of Luo Xiu's eyes and echoing in his ears.
He saw the ravine-ridden battlefield filled with corpses, most of which were martyred priests; and the cultists with evil smiles trampled on them wantonly, causing the holy light on the battlefield to be covered with smoke and dust, making the withered The glory has been desecrated.
He saw the ancient city walls being broken by heavy hammers, and one fortress after another was submerged by the sudden tide of pagans. In their tide, countless dark gray flags were flying, with the symbol [ Lost] The pattern of the Mother Goddess’s moon and star ring...
Almost the moment he saw these scenes, Luo Xiu realized what it meant.
——That is [Holy Tower Theocracy]!
And new content appeared on his panel in real time——
[He grieves with mercy and grace——]
[The blasphemer will destroy the sacred city, and the turbid light will eventually extinguish the light! ]
[Go to the border of the 'Holy Tower' to end that ominous and greedy ambition——]
[Let the descendants who serve the Mother Goddess of the Moon return to To where they belong. 】
【Complete it, and a divine gift sufficient to match your achievements will be sent down in a moment】
[Countdown to disaster: 18 days]
[Complete this "Divine Prophecy" or before the countdown ends, no new "Divine Prophecy" will be allowed]
[...]
This time's "divine revelation" actually symbolizes another major event that Luo Xiu already knew.
That means that when the rebellion in the Kuma Territory is finally quelled, the "Holy Tower Theocracy" will also take advantage of the empire's break to launch a war against the empire in the name of "holy war" A massive invasion war!
The world line in this life has changed a lot compared to the previous one. Although Luo Xiu knew that the "Holy Tower Theocracy" had long coveted a share of the war, he was still unsure about the invasion from the Theocracy. Will it happen again in this life?
But now - the "Divine Prophecy" has confirmed these, and has given a moment the final time when the "disaster" will occur - that will be eighteen days later!
Eighteen days... Luo Xiu chewed the number of days silently.
At the same time, he slowly put down the sacred scepter in his hand, and looked at Archbishop Sid and Saint Franya with worry, making them feel a little jumpy inexplicably.
“What’s wrong, Luo Xiu?”
Archbishop Sid asked tentatively:
"What did you see?"
"..."
"That is not a good 'future'." Luo Xiu He responded solemnly.
“The oracle has been sent down to me in a moment, but the ‘future’ is too heavy.”
He looked at Archbishop Sid, at the "Saint" Franya beside him, and then at the other [Glorious] saints behind them.
"This is a serious matter." He said:
"I can only tell you alone, and also tell Her Majesty the Holy Lady."
"..."
Archbishop Sid did not answer immediately, but first looked at Saint Franya beside him, and the Saint nodded lightly.
"Okay." Archbishop Sid nodded slightly and said:
"Then, Luo Xiu. Come to the 'Supreme Temple', the saint and I will wait for you there."
......
Songyuan City Church, in the "Noble Temple".
Above the Holy See, Archbishop Sid and "Holy Maid" Franya listened solemnly to Luo Xiu's story about the devastated house he saw in the "Divine Prophecy". scene.
In addition to those that appeared in the form of "tasks" on the panel, Luo Xiu combined with the memories of his previous life to paint a completely real "picture of hell" for Archbishop Sid and the Saint...
The blasphemous Archbishop Sid frowned at the scene. He had never expected that their "glorious" "future" would be so dark.
"The Theocracy of the Holy Tower..." Archbishop Sid murmured, the expression on his face becoming darker.
"Yes, the 'Holy Tower Theocracy'."
Luo Xiu nodded, "We really need to consider being wary of them. I also didn't expect that our biggest enemy is not [Abyss] 】, not the 'Dark Principality', but the Theocracy."
"...Indeed."
"Saintess" Franya rarely took the initiative to speak, and she said in a cold voice:
"You got such an 'oracle'... As expected, the sun is still protecting you for a moment We."
"Well, Archbishop Sid."
"Although there is no confirmation, I need to set off and return to the imperial capital as soon as possible to report this matter to His Majesty."
"I will arrange a carriage for your return journey." Archbishop Sid nodded.
Then, he looked at Luo Xiu and asked:
"Are you planning to return to Red Maple City in three days? If that 'oracle' is bound to happen, Red Maple City... That may be the first fortress that the Holy Tower Theocracy attacks."
"Even so, are you still prepared to go back?"
"Yes," Luo Xiu said solemnly. nodded.
Seeing that Luo Xiu's attitude was still firm, Archbishop Sid stopped talking and just sighed.
"Okay...in that case."
Archbishop Sid looked at Luo Xiu and said slowly:
"We will discuss how to deal with the unforeseen event. "
"But before that - Luo Xiu, I promised you that I would give you the reward you deserve."
"What do you want this time?"
The last time Archbishop Sid asked Luo Xiu this question, Luo Xiu chose to take away the dwarves of the "Gravel" family.
At this time, Sid was waiting for Luo Xiu, waiting for what kind of request he would make.
“…”
“Thank you for your generosity, Archbishop.”
Luo Xiu paid the sacrament to the archbishop, and then said:
"Then, I want to enter the secret volume hall of the 'Sacred Reserve' - I want to observe and study some historical records about [Glory] The sacred book, I hope you will approve it”
