The Beginning of Panlong: In the Name of the Father

Chapter 97 Magnolia Festival

Magnolia calendar year 9999, January 1, is the Magnolia Festival.

The Magnolia Festival is the grandest festival on the Magnolia continent.

And the Magnolia Empire is the country that attaches great importance to this festival.

Every year during the Magnolia Festival, there will be grand celebrations in Magnolia City, especially. . .Now there are only four years left until the Magnolia Calendar Ten Thousand Years.

In the past two years, every Magnolia Festival celebration has been a preview of the Ten Thousand Years Celebration.

The Temple of the Goddess of Life is the center of the celebrations, and in front of the temple is a large square thousands of meters long and wide. The ground of the square is paved with flat white rocks.

In the center of the square, a [-]-meter-high statue of the Goddess of Life was erected.

From Hogg's point of view, this is actually a master-level stone sculpture that ranks among the top ten in the mainland. However, no one on the mainland thinks it is a stone sculpture. . .Because this is the "miracle" of the goddess of life, which is natural.

Hogg estimated that it was the high priest of the Temple of Life who took action and used the divine power of life to form the

The square around the statue was crowded with people, but Hogg and Linna didn't have to crowd around in the square.

As a master of stone carving, he was invited to "observe the ceremony" on the buildings around the square.

In the square, a large number of people spontaneously lined up.

These people are very disciplined, and queue-jumping is very rare.

Because the belief in the Goddess of Life has taken root in the Yulan Empire for thousands of years.

Under the "watch" of the goddess of life, no one dares to deliberately cause trouble.However, Hogg also noticed that the Temple of Life did not send anyone to maintain order.

After all, the Temple of Life is different from the Holy See of Light.Although the Temple of Life has a high priest, the only god-level being in the Magnolia Continent, it does not have a very strict organization.

The believers of the Temple of Life are really relatively pure believers, and they are also the biggest source of fresh air in the Magnolia Empire.

The celebration began with a speech by an old emperor of the Magnolia Empire.

This emperor is over 400 years old this year, and no one knows whether he will survive until the Magnolia Festival in the 10000th year of the Magnolia Calendar, but now he seems to be in high spirits, and no one knows what means he used.

The end of the speech was the beginning of joy, and the square suddenly turned into a sea of ​​joy.

People from all over the world gathered in the square. Everyone was cheering for the Ten Thousand Years Magnolia Festival, and lively activities began one after another.

One by one the singers began to perform songs and dances.

One by one the musicians also began to play their instruments.

Although the square was very large, the image was projected into the air by the water magician using magic, and the vocal music resounded through the entire square through a special magic circle, but it did not feel overly loud and harsh.

In each of the programs, some are praising life, some are praising the goddess, and of course the subtle influence of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism is indispensable.

During the show, there was a fireworks show formed by magicians performing "fire" and "thunder". The thunder and fire resounded through the sky, even the sunlight eclipsed it.

Hogg and Lina looked down from the surrounding buildings. It was a very good viewing angle, and there were not many people around.

Linna was fascinated by the music of this show. The people invited to perform at the Magnolia Festival in Magnolia City in the Magnolia Empire were naturally of the highest level.

Although the status of singers and musicians is not as good as that of stone carvers, those who can perform on stage are qualified to be called "masters" in their own fields.

Regardless of any skill, getting to this point is very difficult.

The orioles sang and danced, gradually dissipating, and night fell.

In winter, it gets dark early.

But the celebration is not completely over.

The feast belonging to the masters organized by the Temple of Life and hosted by the royal family of the Magnolia Empire came to an end.Many nobles and big shots also evacuated.

The day of the Magnolia Festival is a performance for the nobility and "elites", while the evening is reserved for common people.

However, Hogg and Linna, and many others who came from afar to attend the Magnolia Festival in Magnolia City for the first time, stayed to continue admiring it.

The sun sets in the west, but the lights are suspended and floating into the sky.

Ancient songs are slowly flowed and sung from dialect tones from all over the continent.

This is a very popular and very old song. Because it is full of all kinds of ancient slang, the specific meaning of the song is unclear, but. . .Hogg could hear the praise of life from that melody.

Hogg was immersed in the music.

Perhaps in the eyes of a person who knows art very well, this kind of folk tunes sung in unison are far less artistic than the masterpieces of tunes by singers and musicians.

But in Hogg's heart, the shock of this melody was far greater than any beautiful and gorgeous singing and music.

This is a tribute to life.

From the humblest, most ordinary, and most ordinary mortal life, it is a tribute to survival, life, and life.

This is. . .The rhythm of life.

The rhythm of life certainly qualified Hogg to indulge in it.

Quietly, a little green light bloomed in the sky, but it was hidden in the floating lights, quietly infiltrating the bodies of everyone present.

Taboo Magic of Life·Praise to Life!

Few people know that during the Magnolia Festival every year, the benevolent high priest will send a disciple who practices life magic to release this magic in this square.

Those who are present to receive magic will have a vitality blooming in them.

Injuries, hidden illnesses, and illnesses on the body. . .It usually lessens and disappears gradually.However, this magic will only favor those guests who are attending the Magnolia Festival for the first time.

Suddenly, Hogg understood something.

The upper-class nobles of the Magnolia Empire were indeed very degenerate. If this were not an extraordinary world, they would have been overthrown by the revolutionary army long ago.

but. . .Ordinary residents who truly occupy [-]% of the Magnolia Empire have a love for the goddess of life, or in other words, for life. . .This is the basis for the cohesion of this oldest country.

Perhaps in the eyes of the high priest, this is the real Magnolia Empire.

Hogg stretched out his hand and took the green light.

The vitality transformed from the light spots flowed in his body. Although it was insignificant, it resonated with the fighting spirit in his body.

"Life magic? It's really mysterious." A pure smile appeared on Hogg's face, but he still had answers to many questions about the mysterious operation of the rules in his heart.

If it weren't for the wrong atmosphere, he would have drawn his sword and practiced it now.

However, although I haven’t practiced it in reality, I have already had an “epiphany” in my mind.

The sword intention in my heart is like a breeze or flowing water, colliding with each other and evolving.

Faintly, the third level of artistic conception suddenly appeared!
"This Magnolia Empire really came to the right place." Hogg said softly, his eyes looking at Lina beside him.

Then, his expression changed.

Because he saw a figure wearing a mask.
