Arcane Linguist

Chapter 372: Singing the Holy Light, Divine Grace Appears

The Arcane Committee's decision was issued quickly. After seeing it, Roland's face was filled with joy. At the same time, he sincerely expressed his gratitude to Lord Antonia for taking care of him.

Although he has won the respect of the magical world with his arcane achievements, to be able to successfully obtain such support, he still needs the support of noble people.

Otherwise, everything would be stuck for three to five months, or half a year, and you would have to work hard to do it.

The development of the school will be delayed for unknown years and months.

At this time, as if to break the common saying that "blessings come in pairs", good news spread frequently within the school, and achievements emerged one after another.

Anna’s horoscope is a horoscope that integrates the star numerology theory in the context of Seris;

The elemental talisman that I have worked hard on before, the martial arts of Siris;

The application of various runes and the corresponding results of the words of the runes;

Even Professor Xia Gengsi, who previously competed for the Arcane Star achievement, sent an email, mentioning that the Siris translation of the "Intelligence Endowment" spell is progressing well.

He planned to imitate Master Watson and use some of the achievements of rune culture to improve his own spells.

If this thing can be done, the Siris School will have the rights to the results of the second level 9 spell.

Although this kind of achievement is not exclusive, it has great advantages in terms of cost of use and commercial promotion, and subsequent research and development based on such achievements will also have great prospects.

The most important thing is that it does not occupy any school's funds and resources.

If this can happen, it will be like pie in the sky.

……

In the mage's tower, in his residence.

Roland sat in front of a large desk, with paper and pen spread out. On it, a large traditional Chinese calligraphy pen was written on it with a somewhat elusive charm.

"Holy!"

Invisible to the naked eye, it is like fluorescent magical energy emanating from the void, as if there is a mysterious rhythm rippling slightly, spreading out like water waves.

Under this mysterious rhythm, traces of holy power emanate from it, like an object that has been cast by a light spell.

"The resonance across the universe...is finally here!"

Roland sensed this power and felt a little relieved on his face.

During this period of time, he has been committed to connecting the power of this rune with the meaning of the blue star in his previous life, forming its underlying tone.

This is tantamount to redefining the Holy Light from the source level, allowing the arcane world to have a method that is different from ordinary divine churches and can resonate with it.

What was originally supposed to be a priest praying to the gods to obtain power such as holy light can now be obtained directly from heaven and earth.

Naturally, it also has the power to use it independently.

"That's it?"

Lei, who came after hearing the news, was surprised.

"Serys's calligraphy can contain divine meaning, and the blessing of this kind of resonance of meaning is really great."

He obviously misunderstood something, but he got it right.

“Calligraphy does have special blessings for magic runes that other arts do not have.

With such a connection as the hub of meaning connection, the integration of holy light and elemental combat skills, and the creation of new professions can all be carried out. "

"Indeed, as long as you carefully understand the meaning of the word Holy Light, and use the magic runes of the word 'Holy' and the word 'Light' as substitute objects for prayer, you can use it as the foundation for spellcasting...

Simply put, when you chant the Holy Light, divine grace will appear! "

Roland said confidently.

"Praise the Holy Light with your mouth, and divine grace will appear!"

Lei's eyes lit up.

“Since ancient times, the fundamental purpose of religious reform has been to adjust the relationship between God and man.

Various rules and regulations and teachings from gods have the meaning of guiding believers in their spiritual life and production work.

People believe that by following such teachings, one can achieve perfection in character and karma, and gain the qualifications to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

In a sense, the gods are just like the laws of nature.

The essence of everything lies in 'compliance'.

But God’s law and God’s dogma are often explained in terms of human understanding. "

Generally speaking, religions are relatively strict in their early stages. As they develop into later stages, various precepts become looser, leading to concepts such as justification by faith that are freed from the shackles of the church and the pope.

At its root, it is actually humanism and people-oriented.

Modern religions have different manifestations, but they have all made excellent adaptations to secularization. The more modernized they are, the more secular they become.

There is actually a conflict between divine power and royal power here, but let’s put these aside for the time being and just talk about obeying God’s commandments and obtaining protection and gifts. On the level of magic, these things are spiritual synchronization and resonance.

The development trend of magic spells from ancient times to the present has also been from complex to simple, from lengthy to short.

After a huge foundation is formed and supported by many belief anchors, this directional thing can be simplified into certain specific spells.

For this reason, Roland believes: "This is similar to the 'arbitrariness of language symbols'. In the same sentence, long-standing conventions are the basis for maintenance...

The religious world pays attention to the 'contract between gods and humans', but in the magic world and the language world, they actually also pay attention to 'promise'!

In essence, it is human will that decides! "

There were many such examples in Blue Star's previous life. The typical example is "Namo Amitabha", the "six-character famous name" of the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism.

Buddhists of different sects have completely different methods of practice, but there are convenient methods that can lead to blissful rebirth by simply fasting and chanting Buddha's name.

This kind of reform is unparalleled in terms of communication efficiency. After all, it is difficult to adhere to clear rules and precepts. Simply chanting the Buddha's name can achieve almost the same effect, and everyone will choose it.

It is human choice that determines this practice method!

Roland has now chosen a belief anchor that eliminates the differences between sects and different doctrines and "recites the Holy Light orally, and divine grace appears automatically" as the center for harmonizing and integrating various Holy Light spells.

Of course, this is a world where extraordinary power manifests itself, and the power of magic cannot be just chanted one or two slogans and used as a spell.

He did this by enshrining as a source of power those things believed in by the School of Seris and Serisism.

"The will of man determines!"

Lei clicked his tongue in amazement. He didn't know whether to say that Roland was bold or clever.

In a sense, this involves "setting rules" for the gods and making a "covenant" with them based on one's own will.

The agreement of all parties is the bargaining chip.

……

Lei didn't know yet that there was a resonance across the universe, but out of his trust in Roland, he still felt that this matter had broad prospects and a high chance of success.

Roland did not disappoint him. After just a few days, he summoned Atali and prepared to personally conduct the job transfer ceremony for her and upgrade her rank.

"If everything goes well, you can become a seventh-level paladin."

He said this to Atali.

Naturally, the blessing of the "Sacred Tree Tao Fruit" is indispensable here. To a certain extent, it can be considered a divine favor.

Only methods comparable to those of gods can grant Atali this level of power at once without the results of her own cultivation.

"Atali, listen carefully, the commandments that the Paladins of this sect need to follow are to act chivalrously, punish evil and promote good under the doctrine of Seris.

You need to pursue a sacred and righteous mission, take 'Heaven sees me and the people see me, God hears me and the people listen' as your creed, and abide by the five virtues of 'benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust'..."

Atali's face was a little confused, but she still nodded.

She knew that Roland would not harm her, so she was willing to follow his guidance and achieve such a job change.

Soon, Roland took her to the room on the other side.

There is a large magic circle set up on the ground. By calling the focusing function supported by the mage tower, all the power is concentrated on the platform, exerting the effect of the job transfer ceremony.

This is essentially the use of ritual magic, designed to transform the flesh and blood and fighting spirit in Atali's body so that she has the ability to resonate and respond to the Holy Light.

If I have to describe it, it is the manufacturing of permanent magnets...

There is a way in industry to make steel or other materials into magnetic permanent magnets.

The effect of this magic ritual is to transform the human body and flesh into a state similar to a magnet.

The "magnetism" here is faith, specifically, resonance with the Holy Light.

To a certain extent, it is also a copycat version of Roland's imitation of his own "soul resonance".

The moment he sat on the magic array, Roland's thoughts went back to the time when he used the knowledge of Blue Star in his previous life to "create" the Oracle. He also used the cultural achievements of the word "light" to create "light". magic scroll.

The current use of Holy Light is to break through the boundaries between mortal things and the extraordinary.

Roland borrowed the function of prayer and worship from the Church of Light in the magic circle, which is somewhat similar to giving abilities to priests.

……

"here we go!"

In the mage tower and the monitoring room, other arcanists who cooperated with Roland in participating in this experiment monitored various instruments with excitement and found that a large amount of energy was gathering in the tower.

A resonance similar to a large-scale sacrificial ceremony is being generated.

This actually comes from the afterglow of the song and dance performances such as "Flowers on the Silk Road", "Flying Sky of Dunhuang", "A Dream of Dunhuang" and so on in the opening ceremony.

At the beginning, Polina's appearance as "Holy Light Handmaiden Bodhisattva" aroused the resonance and emotion of believers.

The reverence for the power of holiness and brilliance was sensed and remembered by Roland.

Now, based on this impression, Roland imitated and created a female character like a god, emerging in the void.

Compared with the "Holy Light Female Bodhisattva", the incarnation of the God of Light, this female character's figure is less charming and enchanting, and more sacred and majestic.

Not long after, the ceilings of each room in the tower suddenly seemed dim. In the monitoring room, everyone saw that the void above Roland's head seemed to have turned into a scene of invasion from the Kingdom of God.

Within the dream, a huge sky was projected down.

The sacred tree, which seemed to be getting taller all the time, stood tall and tall, extending its branches to the distant universe.

Seeing this, Lei, Blaise and others all felt a sense of reverence as if they were seeing a god.

That was what Roland once mentioned to them, the sacred tree in his dream.

"The kingdom of Seris will surely be built..."

Several people were moved and murmured to themselves.

They are not believers, but at this moment, their mentality is better than that of devout believers.

As the world becomes darker and darker, in the starry sky, the figure of the female knight, who is like a god, condensed with spiritual power, gradually overlaps with Atali's body.

Atali, who was originally tall, graceful and mature, seemed to be a bit taller, her body became stronger and slender, and more... perfect.

The leather pants and elf armor she wore seemed to be slowly fine-tuning, changing styles like a creation of the void, becoming a more sacred and solemn Valkyrie-like weapon.

In the end, the golden battle armor slowly surrounded him, while the white wings of light stretched out from behind his shoulders, and the power of this ritual, which was like a large-scale prayer, was felt in the distance.

Roland guided the formation of these powers until the dream-like power solidified.

When I opened my eyes again, everything before seemed like an illusion...

The dream has actually become a reality!

……

Under Roland's protection, Atali felt like she had had a long, long dream.

In the dream, her soul seemed to be floating in the sky, wandering on the land of Siris in the dream world.

In that infinite, ethereal dream, she seemed to have experienced reincarnation after reincarnation, constantly transforming into various heroes and generals in various stories, constantly fighting and killing.

"That's... the story in "The Romance of Siris"!"

Because she had read "The Romance of Seris" written by Roland, she recognized the participating characters and historical events in it.

In making choices again and again, her soul was refined and constantly polished.

Gradually, that lingering, inseparable connection took shape.

This does not mean that Atali's soul can feel the same resonance as Roland.

but……

Within this universe, there are already many beliefs in the Seris School, East Lena, Seris writing and culture.

This kind of existence similar to native gods is the localized Seris and the magical Seris civilization.

The sacred knowledge extracted from the will of all living beings subtly transformed into divinity, giving her entire soul a divine glow.

When she opened her eyes again, the golden light lingered for a long time, and her body also had an effect similar to that of being bathed in divine grace when a senior priest prayed sincerely.

A beam of light like a stage light was cast from the sky, telling all the people of the school who were paying close attention to this experiment.

Tried changing jobs and succeeded!

"Praise the Holy Light, it's really happened!"

"The biggest difference between arcane magic and divine magic is that it can be continuously reproduced by mastering the principles."

"From now on, this will be the school's specialty profession!"

Everyone couldn't help but cheered.

Seeing this scene, Roland also raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showing a satisfied smile.

But at this moment, in the void that only he could see, a piece of golden feather floated up and turned into a ten-star legendary card.

The incarnation of the goddess of light with long hair like a waterfall, blond hair and white skin quietly emerged.
