I am a Taoist priest in the extraordinary world

Chapter 21 Santa Fea Church

Santa Fea Church is the largest religious place in Nolan City, and it is also the location of the church that believes in the god of the earth and trade, Igad.

In the myths of the Western Continent, Igad is the male god in charge of the land and trade. He has unimaginable power and is responsible for managing the operation of September every year.

It is also He who taught the human beings living on the ground how to trade fairly, making the earth more prosperous and full of vitality.

Because of this, His believers in the Heissant Federation are far more than any other country in the Western Continent.

"The priests of the Earth Church are the only ones among the Twelve Orthodox Churches who openly allow Extraordinary people to join official institutions."

Dante and Joseph parked the car across the street and walked into this magnificent church. The latter had another cigarette in his mouth, and was introducing the church in detail.

"However, our Special Investigation Bureau never welcomes them to join."

"Why?" Dante asked puzzled.

"Do you think that in the eyes of a devout believer in God, is the secular world or religion more important?"

Then you are afraid that you don’t understand the belief culture of a country in the east of the earth, who is the spirit and who is important. Dante retorted silently.

"Then why? The federal government rejected the application of the Church of the Earth?"

"Of course not. They are restricted to work in the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Commerce." Joseph shook the cigarette ash and flicked the cigarette butt into the grass beside the road.

"If you let the believers see your behavior, there is a high probability that you will be beaten." Dante squinted at him, feeling a little troubled by this companion's behavior.

While chatting, the two walked on the tree-lined path of the church. The leaves on both sides of the road had turned yellow, giving them a golden beauty.

Dante looked forward along the cobblestone road, carefully studying the magnificent building in front of him.

Santa Fea Cathedral has a typical earth-like Byzantine style, and the overall look is very luxurious. There is a huge circular dome above the central building, and four stone pillars representing the earth, trade, fairness and life stand around it, which symbolizes God's radiance.

"By the way, why do you insist on coming here? Have you used your ability?" Joseph asked curiously.

"Well, otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be insane by you before the divination goes mad." Dante shrugged his shoulders, and he can still smell the strong smell of cigars on his body.

"Tsk tsk, you are really not afraid of death. When I just woke up, I was in a daze all day long, and I always felt someone whispering in my ear. It was so annoying."

"So you rely on cigarettes as a means of relaxation? You end up being a big smoker?" Dante glanced at him, his tone teasing.

"You also got this out of divination?!" Joseph's eyes widened in disbelief.

Please, do you need to count such trivial matters?Everyone can guess it, right?
Dante couldn't laugh or cry, and suddenly felt that the character of the poker-faced companion beside him did not match his appearance at all.

You must know that when we first met, he subconsciously thought that he was a rigid, serious and meticulous guy.

"How about we go in and have a look? Is there any taboo?" He pouted in the direction of the cathedral and changed the subject.

"There is no taboo, as long as you don't use your abilities casually."

Joseph seemed a little casual. He put his hand into his bosom, fiddled with it for a long time, then looked left and right, and handed out a revolver from his clothes.

"Take self-defense, if there is danger, don't worry about me, just run, run as fast as you can."

Dante was stunned, and quickly took it and stuffed it into his waist, and asked while arranging his clothes, "Extraordinary people still use guns?"

"Otherwise, do you want to rely on divination to defeat the enemy?" Joseph looked at him with a look of foolish eyes, and continued: "For low-level Extraordinary, sometimes guns are much more useful than abilities."

"Especially a support-oriented Extraordinary like you, who generally lack effective means of fighting the enemy."

Dante nodded without refuting, but he thought of a series of Taoist spells he had learned, such as Wulei Zhengfa, Liuding Liujia, etc. in his mind.

I have used the Ziwu Jue and Xuantian God Jue before, but the circumstances at that time were quite special, and I didn't notice any changes. According to the records of the master's school's classics, these hand moves have different effects.

With my current level, I can't use too high-level secret arts, but I can find a chance to try the lower-level skills, simple talismans, and many introductory spells in the three-level skills.

While talking, the two had entered the chapel and sat down in an unoccupied corner along the aisle. Dante looked up and found that the surrounding walls and dome were carved with murals of the god of the earth and trade. , that is the epic of God.

A middle-aged pastor was standing at the front, preaching in a low and gentle voice. There were a small number of believers in the audience, all of whom clasped their hands together and rested their drooping foreheads.

Joseph gently touched Dante, who was still "appreciating", with his elbow, and the meaning was obvious: "Let's pretend too."

Dante has no taboos about this, the Tao is in his heart and not on the surface, and it is necessary for work at the moment, presumably the Patriarch of the Sanqing will not blame him.

Following the example of other believers, he just wanted to read the Taoist classics silently in his heart, and suddenly realized that there are really gods and spirits in this world. If this action caused unnecessary troubles, the loss outweighed the gain.

How is this different from going to the Vatican to read Amitabha Buddha?
Thinking of this, he inexplicably wanted to laugh. As a Taoist priest, the first thing he did after going to work in another world was to worship the local gods.

When he was in the car before, the hexagram pointed to the southwest direction, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he named the Santa Fea Church.

For this kind of situation similar to the sixth sense, he chooses to believe it rather than believe it.

Without thinking too much, Dante closed his eyes and listened quietly to the priest's voice:
"Those who leave will return;"

"Those that grow on the earth will one day return to the earth;"

"Those who walk in the desert without hope, God gave them a spring;"

"This grace, which God has bestowed upon us in all wisdom and understanding, amplely;"

"All according to his own good pleasure, which he himself ordained, so that we might know the mystery of his will."

The low and gentle voice echoed in the empty lobby, and Dante concentrated on it without being affected in the slightest.

With an attitude of a bystander, he quietly enjoyed the religious mass.

"Hoohoo."

The subtle breathing sound came to his ears, he opened his eyes, and saw Joseph beside him, completely "intoxicated" by the gospel of the gods.

"."

"Hey, wake up!"

The corner of Dante's mouth twitched a few times, and he quickly woke him up.

"Is there a situation?!"

Joseph opened his eyes suddenly, looked around, and wanted to get up, but was held down by Dante.

"The situation is you! You can actually fall asleep while on a mission?!"

Dante was speechless for a while, is there something wrong with Leon's assignment?This guy must be too unreliable
"I fell asleep?"

Joseph froze for a moment, but did not show any embarrassment. Instead, he frowned and his expression became more dignified.

"After I was promoted to a fighter, I only need three or four hours of sleep a day. How could I fall asleep while on a mission?!"

The aura on his body began to change, and his orange pupils stared at the priest at the front without blinking.

"You go first, there is a problem here!"
