Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory.

Chapter 147 God's Chosen Son

"Are these dragon bones? Are those dragon bones in the Red Castle?" In the underground warehouse of the Redemption Church, by the light of the torch, Bishop Hu Lun looked at the dragon bones piled here in shock and couldn't help but turn his head. Asked Linde.

However, when he saw Sister Melissa, the dean of Notre Dame Cathedral of Redemption, and Elder Colin, the dean of Silence Cathedral, who were standing next to Lind, looking at him indifferently, he immediately closed his mouth and stood aside, like Like a loyal servant.

The Redemption Church was built on the ruins of Summer Hall. Although all the buildings on the ground of Summer Hall have been burned down, the foundation and underground parts are still preserved, so it is much easier to build. The Miracle Church in Miracle Harbor The hall has just built a foundation, and all the main buildings here have been built. The only things missing are some decorations and the statues of the Seven Gods.

In addition to the main church, the entire Redemption Church also has a Notre Dame Cathedral for nuns and a silent church for monks. In addition to underground warehouses for storing things, there is also a secret assembly hall in the underground part. This assembly hall happens to be located in Below Notre Dame and the Cathedral of Silence.

This secret meeting place is mainly used by Linde to train his own Chosen Sons of the Templar Armed Forces.

This armed force is also an important part of Linde's entire plan to occupy the Magpie's Nest against the Church of the Seven Gods. The Notre Dame and the Silent Temple on the ground are not so much used for church nuns and monks to practice and study. To select and train the chosen son of God specifically for Linde.

The establishment of the Temple Armed Forces of the Chosen Sons of God was completely impromptu by Lind, because when he inspected the temple construction site, he discovered that the vast majority of the civilians summoned by the Church of the Seven Gods had fanatical beliefs in him. These fanaticisms All their beliefs originate from the legend of the God's chosen savior. From the bottom of their hearts, they regard Lind as the savior who can lead them to save the world when the cold darkness comes.

And later, he also discovered that people with this kind of fanatical belief were not just the poor at the bottom, but also some high-ranking clergy who came to the Redemption Church with the bishop.

For example, Sister Melissa, the dean of Notre Dame, and Elder Colin, the dean of silence, are the two fanatical believers with the highest clergy.

Sister Melissa is not a clergy member of the Cathedral of Baelor. She comes from the Cathedral of the Stars. She was already the dean of Notre Dame when she was at the Cathedral of the Stars. She is also the only female archbishop of the Church of the Seven Gods, attending the meeting. One of the seven church judges, his status is not much lower than that of the Archbishop of the Starry Cathedral.

The earliest reason why she had faith in Lind was actually when Lind killed the Ironborn pirates in front of the Starry Cathedral. She happened to be in the Notre Dame Cathedral near the Starry Cathedral at that time and saw the complete battle process. There is an illusion that Lind is the embodiment of a warrior.

Later, it was she who persuaded the Archbishop of the Starry Temple to cooperate with Linde, pushing Linde to the position of warrior god's choice.

After that, Linde gradually changed from the warrior god's choice to the seven gods' choice, and showed various miracles that were completely beyond her expectations. At the same time, she increasingly felt that she would think Linde was the warrior god's choice that day. Perhaps it was a divine revelation.

Later, she also joined the miracle appraisal team and went to Miracle Port to identify the so-called miracles on Glory.

Among all the people who came into contact with the black and white halo of Glory, two people had the strongest reactions. One was Sister Melissa and the other was Elder Colin.

When Sister Melissa was exposed to white light, not only the old injuries on her hands were healed, but even her pale hair turned black, making her at least 20 years younger.

Elder Colin was the complete opposite. After being exposed to the black light, he quickly aged ten years. However, he did not feel panic or resentment because of this. Instead, he seemed extremely happy.

At the same time that Sister Melissa applied to be transferred to Notre Dame Cathedral of the Redemption, Elder Colin, who was on the Island of Silence, also applied to be transferred to serve in the Cathedral of Silence.

Compared with Sister Melissa's belief in Linde, which went through a process from scratch, Elder Colin's belief in Linde completely started from the moment he came into contact with the black light on Glory. As he gradually aged under the influence, he seemed to have received a revelation and worshiped Linde as a savior.

Therefore, when Linde proposed to set up the Chosen Sons, a temple armed force unique to him, they all agreed very much, and took the initiative to take over the task of selecting and training the Chosen Sons.

At the same time, the two of them also have the task of supervising the Bishop of the Redemption Temple to prevent Bishop Hulen from doing something irrational due to his sudden enthusiasm.

Bishop Hu Lun was also very scrupulous about the two of them. As long as he was in front of these two people, he would be honest.

"Are these all the keels collected by the Red Fort?" Moroya also came to the underground warehouse with Linde. She looked at the keels that filled the entire warehouse and asked.

"Not yet." Linde shook his head and said: "Less than one-third. There are still many keels temporarily stored in Tengshi Town. After the underground warehouse of the Miracle Temple is built, they will be released again." Transfer it. In addition, there are some large keels in the Red Keep cellar that are impossible to transport. For example, the keels of Balerion and Vhagar are too big. Unless they are broken into pieces, it is impossible. Transported out of the Red Keep silently. If I want to use it, I may need to go to the Red Keep."

"There are also some dragon bones stored in the church. If you want to use them, I can try to transfer them." Sister Melissa said solemnly.

Linde was not polite, nodded and said, "I will come to you when needed."

At this time, Coburn walked out of the shadows behind everyone, walked to the dragon bone, reached out and touched the dragon bone, with a look of obsession on his face, and then took out the dragon talisman that Lind gave him from his pocket. Wen Necklace and the Dragon Rune Necklace he made himself, he leaned against the dragon bone to see what kind of reaction there would be, but he was a little disappointed. There was no reaction on any of the necklaces.

"Idiot, only special people can feel the power in the dragon bone. You are obviously not a special person." Moroya looked at Coburn coldly and mocked.

Facing the ridicule, Cobain seemed to be deaf and did not react at all. He turned around and walked back to the shadow behind Moroya, standing with his head bowed.

The three clergy clearly had no good impressions of Cobain and Moroya, with disgust clearly written on their faces.

"Why did you find me here? Do you just want to show me a pile of bones?" Moroya didn't care about the attitude of these clergy. In fact, she was used to the discrimination of these clergy when she was in Old Town. The meaning of contempt is over the line.

"Don't you want to see a power similar to magic?" Lind smiled and said to Mo Luoya, then turned to look at Sister Melissa and others, and said: "You are all people I trust. , No matter what you see later, don’t say anything out loud, just keep it in your heart.”

"I obey your orders, sir." Several people responded immediately.

When Moroya heard Linde's words, her eyes lit up and her breathing became a little heavier due to excitement. Cobain behind her stood up straight and raised his head that had always been lowered.

Linde walked up to a dragon skull, sat down cross-legged, and held the skull in his hands. Glory also walked out of the shadows silently, came to lie down behind Linde, so that Linde could lean on it. Its body, and then the fur on its body also turned white, emitting bursts of white light.

Seeing Glory's fur turn white, Sister Melissa immediately clasped her hands together and recited the Virgin's prayer. The other two also bowed their heads and prayed together, both showing great piety.

The dragon skull in Linde's hand was not very big, just a little bigger than a dog's head. It looked a little deformed and should have come from a young dragon that died in infancy.

However, no matter how deformed the dragon skull is, it is still a dragon skull, and the skull still contains powerful magic power.Linde, who had been preparing for several months, did not hesitate anymore. With the skillful experience derived from the memory of the lost knight, he easily activated the remaining power of the last dragon feast ceremony in his body and formed a dragon rune specially used for the dragon feast ceremony. .

When the dragon rune was formed, Linde immediately felt a strong suction force coming from his body, and he instantly extracted the magic power contained in the dragon bone in his hand. At the same time, just like the glory devouring the energy of the resentful soul, the dragon rune also Extract the energy from all surrounding keel bones through the air.

In the eyes of Moroya and others, they only saw Lind holding the keel in his hands for a moment. The keel instantly shattered into powder as if it had been crushed by some invisible force. Then the warehouse was filled with Nearly half of the keel bones also turned into powder.

While they were still surprised by the movement in front of them, they suddenly felt that the temperature around them was rising rapidly, as if a bonfire was lit in this closed underground warehouse.

"Look!" Moroya pointed at Linde and exclaimed.

Everyone immediately saw that Linde's body was on fire.

Sister Melissa was concerned and confused, and wanted to rush forward to extinguish the fire on Linde's body, but she was held back by Elder Colin. At the same time, Bishop Hu Lun also reminded: "Look, there is no trace of the God's Chosen One on his body. burn."

At this time, everyone discovered that although a raging fire appeared on Linde's body, and the fire even illuminated the entire underground warehouse, there was no sign of being burned on Linde's hair, clothing and other flammable objects. The glory on its body did not feel the pain of being burned by the flames. Instead, it yawned with a contented look on its face and lay down on the ground to sleep.

"Is this real fire or an illusion?" Cobain looked at the scene in front of him in surprise. He wanted to walk over and touch the flames, but his reason stopped this dangerous action at the critical moment, and then he He was seen tearing off a piece of clothing and throwing it into the flames beside Lind.

Under everyone's gaze, the piece of clothing instantly turned into ashes and fell to the ground. For a moment, everyone couldn't help but take a breath.

Immediately afterwards, the subsequent changes in the flames appeared again, and the shape of the flames began to change, turning into vague images that looked similar to the heads of giant dragons.

These vague giant dragon heads opened their mouths toward the sky, as if they were roaring, trying to rush out, but there was an invisible force restraining them in the flames, and after they roared, they dragged them back. Back into the flames, over and over again.

Seeing this scene, the imaginative Bishop Hu Lun couldn't help but guess: "Could this be the Chosen One using the power given by the Seven Gods to bind the remaining dragon soul in the dragon bone."

"Yes, you are right!" Sister Melissa echoed.

Elder Ke Lin on the side nodded silently in agreement.

Unlike others around her who only saw illusions, the power contained in Moroya's own blood allowed her to see more hidden things.

In Moroya's eyes, the flames did not originate from Linde, but gathered from the land around the underground warehouse, as if the flames themselves were contained in the land.

And those dragon heads that raised their heads and opened their mouths were not roaring or trying to escape from Lind's restraint, but were generated from Lind's body and swallowed up the surrounding flames.

In her eyes, Linde was no longer in human form, but a huge dragon head with ferocious horns.

This vision did not last long and ended quickly. However, the heat did not disappear. On the contrary, it became more and more intense. The people standing in the warehouse felt a kind of pain in their entire chests after just taking a few breaths. The illusion of being burned by fire, for which they had to exit the warehouse.

The amazing thing is that the warehouse door seems to have an invisible force that isolates the heat inside the warehouse. Once you exit the warehouse, the air around it becomes cooler and everyone returns to normal.

After feeling that he was in a safe place, Cobain couldn't wait to take off the cloth bag he was carrying, took out some strange devices from it, and tried to put these things in the warehouse to see what reaction they would have. .

At this time, Elder Colin walked over and held Cobain's hand, stopping Cobain's movements.

"Bachelor, I hope you won't disturb the Chosen One." Sister Melissa looked at Qyburn displeased and said in a deep voice.

"I can guarantee that Cobain's test will not disturb Lind." Moroya seemed to know the devices Cobain took out. She also wanted to see the results of the device test, so she took the initiative to guarantee Cobain.

"Sister Melissa, Elder Colin, and Ms. Moroya are your most important counselors. She will definitely not do anything to harm you." During this time, Bishop Hullen, who often dealt with Moroya, whispered. said.

After hearing Bishop Hulen's words, Elder Colin thought for a moment and loosened his grip on Cobain, and Sister Melissa said nothing more.

Cobain ignored the people around him. After the clamping hand was released, he continued the test that he had not finished just now.

The entire dragon feast ceremony lasted for almost four days and four nights. The five people present took turns leaving and returning to the ground to rest. However, Cobain was an exception. No one would trust Cobain to stay alone outside the underground warehouse.

In addition to the initial devouring of more than half of the keel bones in the warehouse, some of them were gradually devoured until only a few dozen keel bones remained against the inner wall.

There is no doubt that the dragon bones consumed in this dragon feast ceremony are dozens or even hundreds of times that of the dragon bones he consumed the first time. The dragon bones he consumed the first time were just a box, and now it is almost a huge warehouse. It is difficult to Imagine how many dragon bones he would need to consume for his next dragon-breeding ceremony.

Shortly after the keel stopped turning into powder, the temperature inside the warehouse also dropped. Elder Colin, who was waiting outside, and Coburn, who had been testing for four days and nights, immediately noticed it and tried to enter the warehouse.

After finding that there was no problem, they all came to the vicinity of Linde. At this time, Linde also opened his eyes, looked at the dragon bone powder all around, stood up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, and turned towards The two asked: "How many days has it been?"

"It's been four days," Cobain replied.

Elder Colin on the side made quick gestures and asked Linde how he was feeling now.

"Very good, I'm fine." Linde stretched and smiled.
