Chapter 014 The Interrupted Miracle
Chapter 014 The Interrupted Miracle
Most of the priests on both sides held the law codes, and after a bell, they began to sing hymns.
Samuel walked in from the aisle among the priests, and stopped before reaching the center of the four priests.At this time, the four priests would whip at Samuel with a specially treated thorn vine while singing, each of them whipped, and then Samuel could continue to move forward.
This is not a thorny vine for show. Although the crisp vine looks extremely weak, it will tear apart the skin of an ordinary person if it is whipped.But Samuel could not hide, nor could he groan, because only the devil and the undead would feel the pain. Although the believers of the Holy Spirit would bleed bright red blood, they could only feel the grace of God instead of pain.
Samuel walked forward step by step like this. When he came to the red-robed priest, the light sackcloth on his body had been ripped off, but no flesh could be seen through the tattered clothes, because the blood donation had already killed him. The exposed part is completely dyed red...
He knelt on one knee in front of the altar of the red-robed priest, and the priest stood beside him holding a silver bottle.
"Those who believe in my lord will receive supreme glory, and those who betray my lord will fall into hell forever."
The priest's voice was not loud, but everyone in the cathedral could hear it. All the onlookers went to the corridor and knelt down to pray in a low voice, and the priests sang hymns to their climax!Samuel knelt on the ground and began to recite the scriptures in a low voice.The holy water in the officiant's silver bottle was also poured over Samuel's head at this moment!
In an instant, a bright light erupted from Samuel, as if a round of sun had risen from the cathedral. After being shocked, people immediately sighed and praised, prostrating on the ground, and chanting the name of God.Apparently the believers thought that was the way it should be.However, the hosts of this sacrifice obviously don't think so...
The white-robed priests on both sides of the list had stopped chanting, their eyes widened and their mouths opened wide, each one of them looked like ridiculous sculptures.After the red-robed officiant was stunned at the beginning, his old face was instantly flushed with excitement, and he even kept the posture of pouring water, but his arms were obviously not strong enough to support this action for too long.So, soon, the silver bottle dropped from his hand in his exclamation, and fell towards Samuel's shoulder.
At this time, the silver light covering Samuel's body had begun to vaguely form the image of an angel, but the falling of the silver bottle shocked Samuel's body and opened his eyes.The moment the angel opened his eyes, it dissipated into countless silver bright spots.
The priest groaned and fell to the ground.The Crowline continent is a continent where there are very few large-scale faction wars. This is a good thing for all light races, because they can reproduce with peace of mind.But this is not a good thing for the priests of the holy court.Because there is no war, what they can express their loyalty to the Holy Spirit is to hold various sacrifices.But these sacrifices, no matter which Bright Continent is the same, they are not outstanding.
So if we rank God's favor based on the believers, the first ones are of course those believers who persisted in the struggle in the dark and undead continent. The legendary heroes who received the holy artifacts from the Holy Spirit were all born from these persistent struggles and finally gave Believers in bringing light to their own continent.The second is those continents where light and darkness are facing each other. If the highest force of the Holy Court of Clorion is the Holy Knights, the highest force of the Holy Court of those continents is the Legion of Holy Angels. Of course, angels are servants of God, even the lowest two-winged archangel They can also be regarded as demigods, they can't really come to this world, so those holy angels are just projections.They lent their powers to powerful knights or priests, allowing them to assume part of the strength and form of an angel for a certain period of time.
Ranked third is a continent like Clorion, where there are occasional small-scale invasions by foreign enemies, but the main body is safe and sound.Some angels will come to perform miracles in this kind of place about every one or two hundred years, and the rest are just ordinary.
The last ones are the absolutely safe rear continents. It is said that in those places, even the most common magic spells consume two or three times as much as normal.
Of course, Clorion belongs to the third category, and it has been more than 110 years since the last time an angel performed a miracle.This time, there was a tendency for miracles to appear, and the dismissal even caused the officiant to break a silver bottle - one can imagine the Yuzu of the red-robed officiant.It wasn't just because of his beliefs, but because of his selfishness, he made a fuss about interrupting the miracle, and the seat of the red-robed priest seemed to be unstable.
The cathedral was in chaos, but Samuel had a puzzled look on his face, because he didn't know what had just happened. As everyone saw, he just closed his eyes and recited the scriptures.The holy water was poured on his head, and when it flowed through the wound on his body, it was slightly itchy, but he didn't feel anything else.
Samuel still maintained the posture of kneeling on one knee, and the white-robed priests ran over to support the red-robed priest. The old man sat on the chair with a face of remorse, patting his thigh and sighing uncontrollably.The dignitaries who came to watch the ceremony still lay down on the ground with tears streaming down their faces, muttering in their mouths.Only the three followers of Samuel, although they also knelt on the ground, seemed to be hesitating between rushing over and continuing to kneel there.
Samuel, who was kneeling there, suddenly looked up vigilantly, and saw that among the group of white-robed priests surrounding the red-robed priest, a young man about his age was looking at him with what could be called resentment. he.Realizing that Samuel was looking over, the boy didn't immediately lower his head to hide his gaze, but gave Samuel another fierce look, then lowered his head, and comforted the old priest with his companions.
Although the Holy Court forbade the priests from getting married, it was unknown since when the priests wanted to be promoted, so it became a rule that they should not marry wives, because they had to dedicate all their love to God.But priests are normal men, and normal men have desires, no matter how much they love God.As a result, the low-level priests who served the high-level priests around them unknowingly turned into beautiful young men.In addition to serving their food and daily life, these teenagers also serve them in bed.
The little priests brought by the red-robed priest obviously also have this purpose.
But Samuel really didn't know, when did he provoke such a concubine of the red-robed officiant?
At this moment, the officiant finally regained his composure. It seemed that he wanted to come to Samuel, but the boy who had glared at Samuel said something in the officiant's ear.The priest sighed, nodded, and walked into the passage leading to the backyard with the support of other teenagers.Only a red-haired boy came over and unshackled Samuel: "Leave within today, or you won't be able to leave."
The boy said softly as he leaned close to Samuel's ear, and then turned and chased his companion with the two chains.
Seeing that Samuel was free, the three attendants understood that he could go.Julian immediately took off his cloak and put it on Samuel.The four left the church all the way and came to the tent that Julian and the others had set up on the side of the road. After several days of hard fighting in Julian City, most of the buildings, including the City Lord's Mansion, became dilapidated and uninhabitable.In the remaining intact buildings, even the residences of nobles are full of wounded people.So of course they can't compete with the wounded for a place to live.
After entering the tent, Julian immediately went to get the medicine, but was stopped by Samuel.
"Just give me a bucket of water." Samuel took off his cloak, "Didn't you notice? My injuries are all healed."
Many divine spells can heal wounds instantly, so it is not surprising that wounds heal instantly, but if the caster is an angel, it is worth making a fuss about!
So, now Samuel looked at the three stunned people in a daze, he didn't know what happened to him at all...
