Chapter 2779 Fire Festival

The leader of the Dawn Sword Guard is named Teresa. She was born from the ruling family of an autonomous principality in Ramdong. She is a princess worthy of the name. She is not only noble but also beautiful. She is proficient in calligraphy and painting. She is an almost perfect aristocratic lady. Unsurprisingly, she will become a hot commodity in political marriages.

But an accident still occurred. After learning about the existence of the Sisters of the Black Flame Rose, she abandoned her family and fiancé the night before the engagement party, and used a trick to deceive her father. At the age of fourteen, he successfully arrived at the Inspection Church.

In the subsequent training, she came to the fore. Regardless of swordsmanship, marksmanship, tactics, and religious knowledge, she was faster and more precise than others. Moreover, because of her good foundation, she was very good at interpersonal communication and He was also very good at management, so he was quickly noticed by Velez.

After the establishment of the Holy Flame Order, Teresa's performance was also very impressive. In the first action, she saw through the enemy's strategy of attacking in the east and west in an attempt to escape, and took the lead in leading people to block the enemy's escape. He also killed a dozen bodyguards around the priest who was involved in the child trade, captured the priest alive and burned him at the stake.

It is said that whether she is killing people or executing executions, she always has a faint smile on her face.

Just like the look on her face when she looks at Beatrice now.

“Seven seconds.”

Teresa smiled, her pink lips uttering gentle words.

"If you are seven seconds late, you will have to accept the punishment, Miss Skillful Hands."

The Handy Girl, Beatrice's nickname, is also a title she dislikes very much, because she is an orphan, coming from a dilapidated orphanage. The director deducted most of their food, and she can only rely on stealing to support herself. and her younger siblings.

So she doesn’t know art, poetry, painting, or music. Her skills are survival, being silent, and sneaking in and picking locks. She would never do these things again. Although he mentioned it, he still inevitably showed some "skills" in his actions, which eventually aroused the curiosity of the sisters around him.

“It won’t happen again, sir.”

Faced with her neither humble nor overbearing answer, Teresa said nothing more. At this time, a crisp bell rang, which meant that Velez had already Finished bathing and changing clothes.

The sword guards immediately went to wait in front of the Notre Dame Palace. Soon a huge mechanical parade car rumbled slowly out of the palace gate, flanked by hundreds of nuns in white holding incense burners.

The parade car looks like a ship as a whole, with a spacious deck in the front and a hollow shrine similar to a ship's bridge in the back. The top of the shrine is a huge eagle emblem, and it is blocked by white curtains in all four directions. There are still standing statues at the four corners of the shrine. Four older ladies wearing black robes. They are the four female officiants selected by Velez from among the servants of the war group. They are responsible for conveying and assisting in handling academic affairs. They are also her confidants, and they are vaguely visible through the gaps in the curtain. Velez can be seen dressed in regalia and holding a scepter.

Taking advantage of the moment when the team stopped, the sword guards quickly boarded the parade car and stood in their respective positions, while Theresa knelt on one knee in front of the shrine.

"Mother, the sword guards are ready."

The Sisters of the Black Flame Rose all call the Virgin mother. Their teachings are completely different from the battle nuns in the general sense of the empire. They are not the emperor. The daughter of the emperor, but the daughter of the Virgin.

“Well, let’s go.”

"Yes." Theresa stood up, turned around, and raised her arms suddenly.

“Let’s go!”

The dull sound of the horn echoed in the air. As the parade car moved slowly, more and more people joined in. When it As it drove out of Notre Dame Palace, other battle nuns from the Sisters of the Black Flame Rose were already lining up in front and behind it. At the same time, as a substitute for the little angels, an ornithopter dressed as a giant eagle also hovered above the parade car, sprinkling a large amount of flowers. petal.

When the tour bus arrived to inspect the front square of the cathedral, it was already crowded with people. There was a pyramid-shaped four-story platform in the center of the square, with a huge arch made of cinnamon branches at the top of the platform - this It is a very flammable plant and is also regarded as a sacred tree by the Shengyan Order. It is used in many religious ceremonies, including executions of burning.

As the parade car arrived, a female officiant walked behind the loudspeaker and said in a deep voice:

"Our Lady is here!"

In an instant, everyone in the square, including bishops and dignitaries, paid their respects. Kneel down.

After the parade car arrived in front of the high platform, the choir standing at the bottom of the high platform began to sing hymns, while the Battle Sisters erected a cordon between the crowd and the high platform, with the bolt guns in their hands at any time. In the firing state, a wide handrail ladder then extended from the parade car to the top of the high platform, and the nuns on the second floor began to recite chapters from the Book of Holy Fire.

As the curtain opened, Velez appeared in everyone's sight, wearing a magnificent and even exaggerated dress. This ceremonial dress was made of a large number of treasures and gold, and its shape was very traditional and exaggerated Gothic. The style was such that her entire face was almost completely covered by the towering collar, the thick robe trailed behind her, and her slightly opened eyes and indifferent expression surrounded her with a divine halo.

When she started walking, the two officiants held her arms in front, and the two dragged her robes from behind. The sword guards escorted their Virgin with solemn faces.

Two minutes later, Velez arrived at the top of the platform, and the sword guards were scattered on the third floor.

“Eternally praise the God Emperor and thank Him for sending down the Holy Flame for us!”

Standing on the podium, Velez’s steady voice was conveyed to the extreme through the brass speakers from all directions. In the distance, everyone echoed -

Always praise the God Emperor and thank Him for sending down the Holy Flame for us!

Then one of the officiants raised a branch of the already lit laurel tree, and Velez stepped down from the podium, took the branch, and gently lifted it toward the arch.

With a whoosh, the plant door turned into a flame door, accompanied by a unique flash of light.

The next second, everyone exclaimed.

A majestic giant strode out amid the intertwining flashes of light and flames, as if a god had descended into the world.

The bright flames reflected his red and black special ceremonial armor, the red cloak rolled in the fire, and the gold-plated iron halo hung on the back of his head. Even without saying a word, with just one look, It's enough to make any mortal feel that kind of madness, dominance, and energy!

Even without any guards, even if he was alone, when Soshiyang stood in the flames, he seemed to have everyone present in his hand. Whether it was his experience as a legion commander or the Phoenix King for many years, he Inadvertently, a strong aura of dominance was formed. Without any deliberate effort, his presence already declared the existence of dominance.

Everyone at the scene, including the battle nuns and sword guards, almost tacitly bowed their heads to Soshiyang.
