Chapter 118 Do you want to explore the mystery of life?
People were busy again. After all, Essoke died in Gear City. Although the eldest son was notorious, Falmon, the founder of the imperial military industry, only had such a son, and he was a father who doted on his son too much. .
There will be many people who will be worried about Essoke's death, but this does not include Ethan.
Before preparing to return to the apartment, Ethan was invited by the chief priest to visit St. Hillman's Cathedral. This is one of the most famous holy places in Gear City. At the beginning of the empire, it was named after Saint Hillman. Named, he became the first pope of the empire.
Ethan did not refuse the invitation. After all, he was facing a group that the empire liked to talk to. If he didn't say a word well, he might be slapped with a sentence such as "You seem to be disrespectful to the goddess of life, Gothia." hat.
Regardless of his position, he is actually quite interested in the development history of the Imperial Holy See. The Goddess of Life is the orthodox deity with the most followers. The priesthood born from this belief has become the most respected profession in daily life. Especially in the major cities of the empire, before a person's faith is completely destroyed by reality, they will still pray to the goddess of life when they encounter difficulties.
The local priest will also answer the questions of the lost lambs. After all, the original teaching of the Goddess of Life was to save the suffering souls in the dark era.
However, under the "interpretation" of the current pope, many doctrines have derived many contemporary meanings.
The chief pastor of Gear City is a middle-aged woman with a kind face and a kind feeling. She led Ethan into the prayer hall. It was empty and the chairs were arranged neatly. The layout was similar to the church in Ethan's memory of his previous life. No difference.
The chief priest introduced her to the origin of St. Hillman's Cathedral and told her the story of how loving and amazing Saint Hillman was.
Ethan felt drowsy after listening to these stories that made his ears tingle. The only difference was that the names of the singers were different, the adjectives used to describe them, their ideals and grand goals, just like a propositional composition, listen to They all sound the same.
Maomao didn't even bother to act, so she just leaned against his face and dozed off.
Fortunately, his many years of work experience in his previous life have taught Ethan to automatically filter out unimportant information. He has mastered this technique to the point where he can completely desert him and make the other party feel that he is very interested in it.
This was the case for the chief priest. She soon lost herself in Ethan's compliments from time to time, and the smile on her face never stopped since she returned to St. Hilman's Cathedral.
The last stop for the two was the prayer hall. Not far away was the lifelike stone sculpture of Saint Hillman. Like the devout believers, he clasped his hands and prayed to the goddess.
The boring topic about Saint Hillman was finally over, and the prayer hall suddenly became quiet.
The chief priest smiled and handed a silver-white pendant to Ethan, "This is a pendant that I have blessed myself with. Your work often requires you to deal with dark creatures. It should keep low-level dark creatures away." You.”
"This is too valuable, I can't accept it."
Ethan quickly declined. The chief priests of every big city in the empire were clergymen who had reached the fourth level. According to Teacher Maomao’s introduction, these objects blessed by high-level priests were called miraculous creations. If they were placed in Hearth Bay At the auction house, this pendant can be sold for a sky-high price.
Although the words of the chief priest sound light and airy, making miracle creations is like drawing a top-level magic scroll. It requires countless rigorous processes. Even the senior priests of the Holy See cannot just have a sale of miracle creations casually.
Ethan is no longer the ignorant country bumpkin he used to be. He knows very well that if he accepts this pendant, it will be equivalent to owing a huge favor.
"Take it, you have made a huge contribution to Gear City, you deserve it."
"No need, this is my duty."
Ethan waved his hand and said righteously, "As investigators of the Asylum Bureau, our daily work is to solve the risks caused by abnormal cases. I believe that any investigator would make the same decision. I have the same decision!”
As early as in Ximu Town, everyone knew that young man Ethan was very enthusiastic and capable.
"That's not necessarily the case."
The chief priest smiled even more happily, and she suddenly licked her lips - which was a bit inappropriate for a clergyman, and her gaze at Ethan became more and more aggressive. She saw a pure soul, and it must have a special taste.
"Then, how about this as my gift to you?" Her gaze passed across the solemn statue and stopped on Ethan's handsome face. "Do you want to explore the mystery of life with me?"
< br>
The cat woke up immediately.
Moreover, the hair is fried, and the tail is raised high.
Ethan was unable to adapt to the speed of the topic and asked cautiously, "What is the mystery of life you are referring to?"
It should be that Teacher Maomao is too sensitive. This is St. Hillman's Cathedral after all. They are still in the prayer hall. The statue of Saint Hillman is staring at them. The so-called mystery of life mostly refers to blessings and blessings. related rituals.
"The secret of life is to return everyone to their original state, and to blend their souls together in the most honest situation."
The chief priest slowly reached for the buttons of the priest's robe, "If you are interested, I can personally guide you, which will be of many benefits to you!"
But this will do you absolutely no good at all!
Ethan almost jumped up from his chair. He knew that if he didn't do this, Teacher Maomao might evolve into a white tiger and swallow the chief priest in one bite.
The claws are now showing.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"No need, it suddenly occurred to me that there is still some work to be done in the bureau!"
He originally thought that he was overthinking it, but he didn't expect that believers of the Goddess of Life would be so open-minded.
"I like you very much."
The chief priest was not annoyed at all. When he saw Ethan preparing to leave, he did not forget to say, "I have been in Gear City for a long time. When did you change your mind, just come here to see me directly, or if you have any problems, , you can also pray to me.”
"I'll take my leave first!"
Ethan evacuated at the speed of light.
The chief pastor stared directly at Ethan's back, as if he had been used to this situation for a long time.
Occasionally, a boy who is attracted to her will run away in embarrassment, but sooner or later they will come back here. Although this newcomer to the Investigation Bureau seems to have a noble soul, if he stays in this city for a long time, sooner or later he will be infected. black.
She looked forward to that day.
Ethan rushed out of St. Hilman's Cathedral, and only started to breathe heavily when he reached the street.
"Ethan."
The cat hooked his neck with its tail and bared its teeth fiercely, "Do you think the chief priest of the Holy See can make soup?"
