Chapter 296 Invitation

Safu has left in a hurry. She is not here to play, but has a mission to go back to reunite with her grandfather.

Kelly also returned to her post surrounded by her colleagues. Poor guy, I'm afraid I still haven't figured out why there was a commotion among the believers just now. So, intelligence is really important. .

Finally, there were only seven people left in the lively group. I felt a little uncomfortable for a while, but...

"What are you doing here?"

"Aw, ow, ow."

"I didn't bring any jerky today."

"Aw, ow, ow."

"Come on, shake hands."

"Ow."

"sit down."

"Ow."

"Very good, your name will be White Dog from now on." Sadly, he found that this white wolf had already entangled himself, and even Sappu didn't follow him when he left. Shuer sighed deeply, you guys are really annoying. If the wolf pack is disgraced, can't they retain a little bit of the wolf king's dignity?
Trouble, very troublesome, after all, we suffer together in the alien projection, Xiuer can't really drive it away forcibly, we can only raise it, but the problem is that this guy is a monster, and it is a very powerful monster , and it’s not really a dog. If it’s kept in a place like the Rose City, it will take a long time to negotiate with the Marquis Ruben.

And it's not like those stupid children in the temple who can be fed with just a few slices of bread. It eats meat, and eats a lot. What it eats piece by piece is not meat, but it's all Shuuer's blood. And tears.How about going out hunting by yourself every day?
In addition, it would be okay if we were in the Rose City, but now we are in the Lion City, so we can't raise a wolf king in the visitor area of ​​the Water Temple.

"Oh, Your Excellency Priest, I have also heard the story of this magical beast from Kelly. I think it is also very docile. You might as well leave it in the Water Temple for the next few days and wait until you leave together. Take it away."

"Thank you very much. Lord Olanna has really helped you a lot." This was not against his will at all. Shuer really thought this was a trouble. He raised his leg and lightly kicked the idiot wagging his tail on the butt. "Go, Thank you, Lord Olanna."

"Ow."

Too lazy to talk to the shameful wolf king, Xiuer and Lisa walked towards the interior of the temple under the personal guidance of Archbishop Olanna. The two sides were in harmony, as if nothing had happened at the door just now.Shure knew that Olana must have a purpose, but she didn't mention it, Shure would not be so stupid as to take the initiative to ask, why not take it as normal, and when she thinks the time is right, she will naturally make a request.

Talina tightly held the hands of the two children and followed them. The children were very scared and nervous, but Talina was even more nervous than them and could hardly even walk.

As for Linda and McCree?The two of them were busy confirming whether they were dreaming.

Originally, the two of them were suspicious of Xiuer, worried that he would just make empty promises and then shirk his promise later, and even worried that he might have some conspiracy, especially since they had also privately inquired about the Dark Moon Temple. The current situation, the result is not only not relieved, but also adds some doubts.

But since the moment they met Olanna, all doubts were dispelled. They were people who believed in the goddess of water. In their eyes, the archbishop's status was second only to Lady Wendy.Just kidding, someone who can chat and laugh happily with Archbishop Olanna, what big scene has he never seen, where he needs to plot against two ordinary people?However, no matter how much they thought about it, the two of them couldn't figure out what Xiuer planned to ask them to do. They could only attribute it to the quirks of such big people.

"This is the interior of our Lord's mortal territory." Olanna was like a hospitable old woman introducing the furnishings of her home to her guests, her kindness made people feel good. "We, the servants, live here every day. .”

The external facilities are similar to the Dark Moon Temple, but the interior is completely different.

Facing it is a large lake, at least several thousand square meters in size, with jagged crystal clear water and occasional small fish poking their heads out of the water, as if asking for food from passers-by.

"Holy Lake, this is one of the incarnations of Lady Wendy. According to records, it has appeared since the mythical era. It is said that bathing in the lake can wash away all diseases and uncleanness, and drinking the lake water can also make the body healthier. healthy."

Uh, very good, Xiuer showed an awkward but polite smile, the symbolic meaning of this church story is a bit meaningful, bathing in the body of the goddess incarnation, huh, don’t continue to think about it, Xiuer does not want to start from Boulder Wilderness walked back alone like a savage.

Olanna had no intention of taking everyone to visit the entire temple. Even in friendly churches, some private places could not allow outsiders to enter casually, so he took them directly to the visitor area.Since the age of the pantheons, each temple has had a similar visitor area to provide accommodation for visiting believers of other gods. Even the more extreme god churches such as the Lord of Conspiracy and the Lord of Slaughter are no exception.

Of course there is one in the Dark Moon Church, but... now it is probably a paradise for some small animals. As for when it will be reactivated, Lady Luna herself probably doesn’t know.

"Thank you for your hard work after traveling thousands of kilometers. This building is the residence we have arranged for you these days. You can use all the facilities in the visitor area at will. All living supplies are provided by us. If you need anything, just feel free to contact us. The pastors who serve you will tell you that they will prepare everything for you in time."

"Huh? Then you can go out before leaving...ahem, it's nothing." Xiure coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment. He was used to it. He was used to it.

"Your Excellency the Priest and Your Majesty the Bishop." Pretending not to hear the embarrassing request, Olanna smiled kindly, "I know you two are tired from the journey, and I shouldn't disturb your rest, but there happened to be a small gathering today, and we will be here soon. start."

"Small gathering?" Sure enough, it came, and an unexpected situation occurred, and Xiuer felt relaxed.

"Many temples send teams to participate in the Water Curtain Festival in the Lion City. This is already a common practice, but this time is a bit special. Many temples are visited by high-level people."

"Oh, how strange."

"Yeah, it's really strange." He used a smile to resolve Xiure's pointed teasing, and the archbishop said with a normal expression, "But it's good. We are usually busy dealing with temple affairs, and it's been a long time since we got together to chat. We chatted, and we just took this opportunity to have a good chat. Many people never have this opportunity in their lives. After all, the chaotic era of 3000 years has passed. It may be impossible to meet as often as we did then."

"Although that kind of meeting is not worth looking forward to."

Of course it is not worth looking forward to. In the era of chaos, it is not just the secular world that is in chaos. The world of the priests is also chaotic. Various pantheons are fighting each other, and even the same pantheon often rubs against each other.Do church leaders meet often?Indeed, but that means the outbreak of another religious war. Even believers of the God of War, even if they have experienced the boring peaceful life in the era of the temples, will not look forward to returning to that nightmare era.

"Oh, but some people always want to relive the experience of that era." Olanna said pointedly, "Everyone is also very troubled."

Tsk, the Water Curtain Festival is really not that simple, and the gifts from Wendy and Olanna are not that easy to eat.Xiure tapped his thigh, trying to sort out the information contained in this seemingly casual exclamation, but the more he sorted it out, the more quickly he became breathless.

The clergymen never represent only themselves, especially the high-level clergymen, who represent the true God behind them and are the spokespersons of the gods.On key issues, their attitude is the attitude of the gods behind them, some people?Oh, I'm afraid the gods behind them are also included.

Who are we?Now that I say that, there is definitely more than one person.So, is it the water god type?Or more gods from other pantheons?If Olanna did not exaggerate or lie, I am afraid that two or three camps have been formed among the gods, but I don’t know if they are solid.Once a stable camp is formed, it means that the peaceful era of 2000 is about to pass, and the existing order will inevitably be in danger.

Xiure clenched his fists behind his back and tried to stabilize his slightly rapid breathing. No, he was definitely not afraid, let alone anxious. His shortness of breath was just due to excitement.

Shuer was never afraid of war, and even looked forward to it.It's not because he claims to be cold-blooded and doesn't care about the creatures in this world, but because he has lived in his hometown where families are constantly at war with each other for half his life. In his view, war is just a way to obtain profits, and there is nothing unacceptable.If the world becomes chaotic, he can make it easier for the Dark Moon Temple, of course, provided that the temple can still exist when the war is over.

A double-edged sword. On the surface, he looks normal, but in his heart, he has already considered a lot.

"I think you have a bit of a misunderstanding, Your Excellency the Priest." Olanna's voice brought back Shuer's thoughts. After a closer look, the old archbishop's eyes were full of meaning, as if he had seen through his mind, "No one wants to Instigate a real large-scale war, because at least at this stage, the order of the temple era must exist."

"Then what Lord Olanna just said..."

"Haha, it's just that those people have different views on something than we do, and they have some disputes with each other. Well, at least it is just a verbal argument now. As for whether it will evolve into other ways in the future, no one can be sure, but One thing is certain: a large-scale war will never be allowed to break out."

"Is this a consensus?"

"Yes, this is the consensus of all gods, even those people."

"Okay, I understand." Shuer nodded. There must be a reason for reaching this consensus that he didn't know. It was probably related to the sudden establishment of the temples. This is not important now. You can study it slowly in the future. Now The question is... "What exactly is something?"

"can not say."
