Chapter 367 Sir Kane, are you willing to believe in my Lord?
Count Petrie's Mansion,
Li Si was silent for a moment, looking at Earl Petrie in front of him who had completely turned into ashes, and sighed secretly.
Putting away the aura in his hand, Li Si felt a little regretful, but he had anticipated this before coming.
This situation of Earl Petrie has actually led Li Si to speculate on a lot of things.
First of all, there is no doubt that Count Petrie is from the Church of All Beasts.
The situation in which he ended up with such a tragic end is very similar to the restrictions placed on important subordinates by the evil church. Once the secrets are leaked, they may directly destroy themselves.
No ordinary extraordinary force would choose this method. At most, it would be a secret-keeping restriction that cannot reveal secrets.
Secondly, in addition to Count Petrie, the Church of All Beasts indeed has someone with a higher status in Bright Light City. Otherwise, once Count Petrie dies, the entire Church of All Beasts’ arrangement in Bright Light City will be directly affected. collapse.
Count Petrie must have a higher-level presence, most likely a noble of the kingdom.
Even this [Blood Sacrifice Chaos] was planned by this person, but he did not appear in the final battle and his identity was not exposed.
Li Si remembered that after Bright Light City experienced the [Blood Sacrifice Turmoil] in his previous life, the Church of All Beasts no longer caused trouble here.
So Li Si still doesn’t know who the hidden mastermind is?
The prophet obtained after rebirth is not omnipotent. There are still many secrets that Li Si does not know.
Li Si had a headache thinking about this.
Although I got a hint of the mastermind behind the scenes, it is still a quite large project to find out the mastermind behind the scenes.
What's more, once Count Petrie dies, the mastermind behind it must have noticed it and will definitely take action.
Maybe he will hide himself even deeper.
Lis searched Earl Petrie's mansion up and down carefully, but found no useful clues, so he had no choice but to give up and teleport away from the mansion.
Let Maura collect information about Petrie.
However, Li Si didn't have much hope in comparison. After all, he was so ruthless that he placed such vicious restrictions on his subordinates. Compared with usual, the two of them would be more cautious when communicating and would not miss any useful information.
After Li Si left, calm returned to the mansion. No one knew that the owner of this mansion had turned into a pile of ashes.
The servants in the mansion didn't know anything yet, thinking that their noble master was just out for a temporary trip and didn't cause any disturbance.

Fez Street, the secret place,
Bang!
The envoy couldn't hold back the anger in his heart and slapped his right hand hard on the table.
“.What happened again?”
When the Messiah saw this, he originally wanted to laugh at the angel’s temper, but noticed his ugly face and was about to say what he said. After swallowing, he said in a deep voice.
“One of my men has just triggered the blood and fire restriction and has gone to serve my lord.”
The angel's face was so gloomy that it was almost dripping with water.
Count Petrie is his highest-ranking and one of the most important chess pieces.
He can trigger the Blood and Fire Restriction, which means that his true identity has been exposed.
He has great confidence in his men. Even if they are not that loyal, the blood and fire ban is enough to make them shut up and dare not reveal the affairs of the Church of Beasts.
This means that the enemy has been convinced of Count Petrie's identity and directly used coercive measures, which triggered the blood and fire ban.
The divine envoy felt a little lucky in his heart. If it weren't for the Blood and Fire Restriction, his identity would not have been exposed.
Although the tasks he assigned to Count Petrie have been completed, his death will not affect subsequent plans.
But the fact that something like this happened at this time undoubtedly cast a shadow on the heart of the envoy.
“This is so true.”
Messiah refrained from swearing.
He even felt that the God Envoy was poisonous, why did such flaws appear every time in his arrangements.
Forget it once, twice is definitely your problem!
Is it possible that someone is so lucky that he deliberately targets you secretly every time?
Fortunately, you know how to restrain blood and fire, otherwise I would leave Bright Light City without looking back.
Messiah thought in his mind that as for the person who triggered the blood and fire restriction to serve the Lord of Beasts, he would just deceive those tough guys, but he didn't believe it at all.
He had seen with his own eyes the consequences of those who triggered the Blood Fire Restriction. Their bodies and souls were completely burned by the poisonous Blood Fire, and there was no way they would have the chance to enter the Kingdom of God, the Lord of Beasts.
This level of restriction cannot be used by everyone in the Church of All Beasts. Only the top leaders of the church can control this power.
At least the Messiah did not master this power, but as the favored one of the Lord of Beasts, the God’s Messenger always had this kind of power bestowed by the Lord of Beasts.
"The impact is not big. The preparations are basically completed now. We just wait for Your Majesty and the others to arrive at Bright Light City."
God said in a reluctant tone, not knowing Was he comforting the Messiah, or was he comforting himself.
Messiah did not want to sit still and wait for death, and said in a deep voice:
"I will report this matter to His Majesty Alvin and ask him to rush to the Bright City as soon as possible."
"It must be done. Seize the time to ensure that the plan is not discovered by [Flame of Judgment].”
The God Envoy originally wanted to reject Messiah’s suggestion, after all, his status in the Church of All Beasts has been destroyed due to the failure of the [Blood Sacrifice Chaos]. And now that this flaw has appeared, it is conceivable that his Majesty's impression of him will become even worse.
But when he thought of the danger of being discovered by [Flame of Judgment], the envoy hesitated for a long time but still did not say anything to stop it.
After all, he still had some bad premonitions, and it would be good to be more sure.
I don’t know why, but the envoy always felt that Petrie’s death was inseparable from List.
What a damn guy!
Unfounded anger burned from the bottom of his heart, and the divine envoy smashed the table in front of him into pieces.

Kane Family Mansion,
“The Church of Dawn sent someone over to ask me to go to the Cathedral of the Dawn?”
Li Si just came back from Earl Petrie’s Mansion, and he took another trip to the Moroccan Castle on the way. La, let him help collect some information about Petrie.
As a result, as soon as I returned home and prepared to talk to Risa about my feelings, I got the news from Joyce.
Joyce nodded, sat on the sofa and tasted the wine, and said with a smile:
"A high-level paladin came here specially. It should be Bishop Morris, right?"
"That legendary priest, [Holy Light] Lou Morris?"
Li Si was a little surprised. He didn't expect why that person would take the initiative to see him.
"Could it be?"
Li Si looked at Uncle Joyce in front of him, making some guesses.
Joyce had already noticed Li Si's eyes, nodded slightly and said:
"It would be okay if I kept hiding my existence, but I have appeared in front of that saint. With the power of the Church of the Dawn, I can naturally do it. Be clear about my existence, including my relationship with you.”
“However, the saint of the God of Dawn has never come to me, and I have not gone to see him. This is between the two of us. "Tacit understanding."
"It may be because of me that he wants to see you this time, but maybe it's more because of you."
Listening to Joyce's words, Li Si was a little confused. Undecided. After being reborn into this world, Li Si always subconsciously avoided getting involved with the Church of the Gods.
Maybe it’s the fear of the power of the gods?
In Li Si's consciousness, he always felt that his status was similar to that of gods in Chinese mythology, who were always omnipotent and would find abnormalities in him.
But as Li Si lived and traveled in this world for a year, his fear of the gods gradually faded.
After seeing what the Church of the Gods did, facing the gods directly, and integrating the divine power, Li Si's awe of the gods is also disappearing.
Especially after coming into contact with the god Ans El, Li Si always had a premonition in his heart.
In the final analysis, gods are not so much existences in the sky far away from human beings, but more like people with powerful power.
Greed, hatred, insidiousness, etc. are also vividly reflected in those gods.
Based on Li Si’s memories from previous games, whether he is a righteous god or an evil god, in the final analysis, it is just a division based on his own clergy and camp tendencies.
In addition, they are not existences without desires. They will also fight endlessly for different reasons such as the power of faith, believers, priesthood, etc.
Power does not make the gods themselves noble. In the final analysis, it still depends on the nature of the gods.
In a sense, Li Si clarified the position in his heart and strengthened his thoughts.
The gods are not unattainable, respect and awe are simply based on the power they control.
Of course, this does not mean that Li Si treats both good gods and evil gods equally.
In the final analysis, law and chaos, good and evil, as a human being, Li Si naturally has inner tendencies.
Discuss the deeds but not the heart!
For humans, it is natural that the Orthodox Church, which protects human existence, is more trustworthy.
In this world with extraordinary power, Li Si doesn't want to do anything to liberate people's wisdom.
In the final analysis, gods exist in this world, and faith can indeed be rewarded. This is enough for many ordinary people.
For Li Si, what he expected was not a dead world of blood and fire. Prosperity, peace and tranquility were the most sincere wishes of human beings.
Compared to the Evil God, the Church of the Righteous God is naturally more worthy of his cooperation.
After all, he is still facing the threat from the Church of Beasts!
"Go ahead, as long as your teacher and I are here, they won't do anything to you."
Joyce said calmly.
“Well, okay.”
Li Si thought for a while and agreed, it would be a good idea to go and see it.
Since his rebirth, he has not entered any church!
Brilliant City, Dawn Cathedral.
Now that Li Si chose to accept the invitation, he no longer dressed up as simply as before.
Wearing a light gray tuxedo with long tail, the front is decorated with delicate gold tassels, the collar is inlaid with azure gems, and the inside is a pure white shirt with some ruffles and velvet embellishments, simple The atmosphere adds a touch of elegance.
In particular, Li Si's handsome face and upright figure attracted many passers-by who came to worship at Dawn Cathedral when he got off the carriage.
Li Si did not pay attention to other people's eyes, but walked into the Cathedral of the Dawn under the guidance of the paladin wearing white gold armor.
Many people who are familiar with the Church of Dawn couldn’t help but whisper, discussing how that handsome young man could receive such courtesy from the Church of Dawn, and even the paladin made a special trip to greet him.
Li Si followed the paladin and looked at the familiar Dawn Cathedral in front of him, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
The Morning Cathedral was a place he often visited in his previous life.
For no other reason than because the pastors of the Church of Dawn have the strongest ability to treat and remove abnormal conditions. They can even get free meals for free, which is really not that satisfying.
Perhaps ordinary people may not do that because of their reverence for the gods, but players don't care about this, and some shameless ones will even change their clothes and eat an extra meal.
Li Si grinned. He had done something like this before, and it was precisely because of this that he was quite familiar with the public areas of Dawn Cathedral.
As for the more critical points, many players are curious, but the power of the Church of the Dawn was enough to suppress the players at that time, and few players could complete the full map unlocking of the Church of the Dawn.
Thoughts were flying in his heart, but when Li Si took the first step into the door of the cathedral, he suddenly felt that the whole world seemed to be quiet and peaceful.
As soon as you enter the Dawn Cathedral, what comes into view is the majestic and towering dome and rows of benches distributed on both sides. The light in the entire church is dim, but it is scattered from the exquisite floor-to-ceiling windows in the center of the church. The sunshine, like the holy light shed by gods on believers, is calm and solemn, full of sacred atmosphere.
The entire church is spacious and solemn. The marble carvings and paintings quietly tell the believers the mercy and love of the God of Morning. People who come to pray and worship stand in awe in front of the altar, with their right hands on their chests. Crossing the holy emblem outlining the God of Morning, he prayed silently.
For some reason, the devout prayers of the believers in the church echoed in the empty space without any sense of noise. They gathered together low and powerfully into a sacred tune like a hymn, which made believers who walked into the church I can't help but hold my breath and concentrate. Even the unbelievers can't help but stand in awe when they come here.
The same is true for Li Si.
He had been to the Cathedral of the Dawn countless times in his previous life, but this time he felt completely different.
The sacred atmosphere that hit his face made him feel a little excited, and he couldn't help but stop and stand there quietly.
The paladin who led the way saw this and did not disturb Li Si.
This is the power of faith!
Li Si once saw the power of faith at the Holy Festival celebration, but it pales in comparison to the interior of the Cathedral of the Dawn.
The power of faith surrounding the cathedral has been accumulated for countless years, and it surrounds Li Si's body like a torrential river.
Dawn, love, peace, light.
A variety of images poured into Li Si's mind along with the power of faith.
An ordinary person might be so immersed in the power of faith in the God of Dawn that it would be difficult to extricate himself, but Li Si, who had merged with divinity, could easily get rid of the influence of the power of faith.
But he did not stop, feeling the mellow power slowly washing his body. This kind of good thing may not happen next time.
The paladin on the side noticed something strange about Li Si. Feeling the consumption of the precious power of faith in the church, he struggled to remind Li Si aloud.
Inviting you to be a guest, just give it a try. What the hell is taking it with the pot and bucket?
Just when the paladin was about to reach out and touch Li Si, an old and thin white figure appeared in front of Li Si.
"Lord Morris!"
"Step back, don't disturb him."
The old man's gentle voice sounded, and the paladin immediately saluted and retreated without any further hesitation.
I don’t know how long it took, but even the light in the cathedral dimmed, and the candles gradually lit up.
Li Si, who finally felt satisfied, slowly opened his eyes and saw a familiar old face appearing in front of him.
The old man had a smile on his face, and his words were sincere and sincere.
"The light of the morning favors you, Lord Kane."
"Are you willing to believe in my Lord?"
