My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu

Three days passed in an instant, and Croun didn't need to think about so many issues. He spent all his free time meditating on the Golden Light Spell.

After so many years of perseverance, the liver experience when there is nothing to do has become a habit, close to instinct.

Flanders happily came over to meditate every day. In his words, no matter how small the progress, the cumulative effect will be a big gain.

"Dong, dong"

There was a gentle knock on the door outside the room, followed by Del's words:

"Your Excellencies, the airship is ready to land."

When the cycle ended, Crown stopped visualizing and summoned the golden wall.

[Golden Light Spell: 155270/300000; Level 4]

During the flight, he spent most of his time contemplating. Even if he didn't practice Breath of the Flame Dragon to improve his efficiency, his proficiency increased every day more than usual.

Flanders also finished his visualization and said with satisfaction:

"Visualizing with you is a wonderful enjoyment. I have new insights every time."

When he meditates on his own, he can't achieve the current efficiency. This can be seen intuitively from the speed of obtaining Sunfire Liquid and Moon Dew.

The archbishop also secretly compared the visualization method with the church meditation method, and found that the visualization method was even more effective in cultivating the blood of silver.

Since then, he has shifted more energy to visualizing the Golden Light Mantra.

You are so lucky. Kroun secretly curled his lips. Now the Taoist holders regard him as an experience package.

If he could not make more profits through the Golden Light Tao Seed, he would not be willing to share the Tao Seed.

Not to mention anything else, the extra proficiency he gained through Tao seeds every day already exceeded the gains he had made through hard work.

When other people practice secret techniques, the higher the level, the slower the progress. Now he is actually getting faster and faster. This kind of secret pleasure is not something outsiders can explain.

After a moment of turbulence, the airship landed steadily at the parking lot.

Flanders observed the situation outside through the window and said:

"The Holy See's carriage is already waiting outside. Let's go. I don't know how many of those old friends are here now."

He tilted his head, with envy in his tone:

"You are now the strongest person in the church. How do you feel about that?"

Kroun thought carefully for a moment and shook his head slightly: "There is no special feeling."

Flanders bared his teeth in hatred:

"If I achieve the fifth level of transcendence, I will definitely entertain all my relatives and friends, and then return to the Kingdom of Potamia in glory."

Wealth and honor do not return home, just like walking at night in brocade clothes.

Crown laughed, his smile a little lonely:

"I only have one family member left, but as I become stronger and stronger, I can feel the distance between me and my sister.

I don’t have many friends, only Nick and you are the only ones now.

Zach Town is my hometown, but there is no trace of my memory left there. The people I once knew are no longer there. "

Flanders sighed softly. He remembered the tragic death of his old friend and lost interest in talking. The two walked out of the airship in silence.

Theo was already waiting outside the airship. He bowed and saluted, and said with a kind smile:

"My lords, you have had a hard journey. Please get in the carriage. His Majesty the Pope asked me to stay here. He wants to see you as soon as possible."

"Lead the way," Flanders was not surprised that Theo was waiting here. He understood that the person the Pope really wanted to see was Crown, and the other party would not summon him alone.

With the resurrection of the evil god, the birth of the first fifth-level transcendent on the continent is of great significance.

For the Flame Lord Church, a top powerhouse may be able to lead the church to greater glory.

Osman stood with his backlight, wearing a moon-white papal robe, holding a scepter with a ruby ​​on the top in his hand, and his face was solemn.

Theo gently knocked on the open door and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Lord Crown and Lord Flanders are already waiting in the living room."

Recently, he noticed that the Pope's temper had become more and more erratic, and he would often get angry over trivial matters. Now he was cautious when talking to the Pope.

"Well, I understand," the Pope turned around, waved his hand and said:

"Let's go, let me take a good look at the mainland's first fifth-level transcendent this time."

Theo quickly opened the door completely and followed the Pope who came out in small steps.

In the living room, Kroun sat on a high-backed red velvet chair with silver, looked at the people pacing back and forth in front of him, and said with a smile:

"Archbishop, you are not behaving normally today."

Flanders frowned: "A meeting of the cardinal archbishop is about to be held. St. Peter's Basilica is actually repairing the magic circle, and it is said to be the Pope's decision. I feel a little weird."

This time is not suitable for work that affects your image.

"Whatever, we've only been here for a few days. We'll be leaving after the meeting. How much does the environment here have to do with us?!"

"This is St. Peter's Cathedral. In the future, the God of the Lord of Fire will descend over this city. How can the magic circle here be moved at will?

I must protest at the Council of Cardinals to urge the Pope to stop this stupid decision. "

Crown immediately sat up straight and asked: "Will the changes in the church's magic circle affect the coming of the Kingdom of God?"

If there is such a hidden danger, the Pope's operation is intriguing. His time to become a high-level transcendent in the church was still too short, and many secrets were unknown.

Because there are so many things that have not been recorded in writing, but have only been passed down orally in the church.

"There will be some impact, but not much. St. Peter's Basilica is a relatively key anchor point, but without it it will slow down the Kingdom of God's positioning in the present world by a few days at most."

Hearing this answer, Crown relaxed:

"Fortunately, let the Pope do whatever he wants."

As long as the matter did not have a decisive impact, he would not worry about changing the magic circle or even changing the church.

The main purpose of his coming to the meeting was to access secret information and obtain information on how to improve after the sixth level.

With the help of the golden wall, advancing to the sixth level is as natural as water flowing downwards.

But he had heard Plimpton's remarks that there were other hidden conditions for those who wanted to advance to Stigma Gold at the silver level.

At this time, Osman walked in from outside the door and lowered his head slightly:

"I have kept you two waiting for so long. May the light of the Lord of Flame illuminate our way forward."

Flanders turned around and raised his eyebrows subtly after seeing the other party's attire.

The Pope wears a holy robe, and all breath is blocked by the holy robe. This is a garment made of special materials. It has the flexibility of cloth, but can achieve the defense of armor.

Crown stood up, and the two of them returned the greeting: "May the light of the Lord of Fire illuminate our path forward."

Osman waved his hand to signal Theo to leave first. The waiter understood, turned around and left and closed the door of the living room.

"The last time we met, Lord Crown's aura was as good as advanced silver. When we meet again, he has advanced to the fifth level. I am very curious about your bloodline.

Advancing from the fourth level to the fifth level in less than a year, I am afraid that the gods would not be able to do it back then.

I will vote at the meeting to elect you to be a cardinal. The future of the church will be in your hands. "

Kroun bared his teeth, feeling like a piece of pie was flying towards him.

According to the church's constitution, he will first be a cardinal for ten years, and then he will have to compete with other candidates, and he will become pope only after winning.

The current Pope's tone seemed as if he would definitely become the Pope under the arrangement of the other party.

He had eaten too much pie in his previous life, and he was no longer sensitive to such words.

"Your Majesty, it is difficult for me to manage the academic affairs of a small city. If I serve as a red archbishop, I will probably bring shame to the church."

"With a few more years of training, you will naturally be qualified for this position, and your leadership skills can be cultivated slowly."

Crown shook his head, "I have no intention of doing this. Being a bishop is just fine."

Osman looked into his eyes, as if to penetrate his soul.

After a few seconds, the Pope turned his head and said:

"Archbishop Flanders, I want to talk to Mr. Crown alone. Theo will take you to the guest room to rest."

"Excuse me," Flanders nodded vaguely to Crown and exited the living room.

The Pope walked to the chair and sat down, smiling:

"Sit down and let's talk slowly. This is a long story."

Don't try to trick me into pretending that you are some kind of Cardinal Archbishop Crown. He sat down obediently and acted like he was listening.

Osman looked at his movements and laughed:

"You seem to be wary of me?"

"I just don't want to be a cardinal and do anything in any position. I don't want to have too much responsibility."

Crown said it very sincerely, he just wanted to be a leisurely bishop.

Maybe when he reaches the peak of all his skills, he will develop the mentality to control power, but now, he just wants to do less and gain more experience.

“The situation in the world will push you forward.”

After the Pope said something unclear, he continued:

"There is a secret that you definitely don't know. The shining of the red moon will accelerate the awakening of the sleeping evil god. The danger we face this time is even more difficult than the last holy war.

If you become the Pope, you will get more resources and have a brighter future, and the world will also avoid falling into the abyss of darkness because of you.

Through the mists of time, I see your future with a golden rank.

When you stand in the middle of thousands of people and feel the glory, you will definitely feel lucky to be the Pope. "

'Do you know how much of a bastard you are now? Fortunately, my demand for resources is very low, and your pie is not very tempting, otherwise I would really be fooled by you. ’

Croun complained silently in his heart. In his previous life, the internal relationships of a large company would be complicated, and such a large divine church would be even more difficult to manage.

For him, there are not many advantages to becoming the pope, but there are definitely many disadvantages.

Using one's own strength to overwhelm others will only continue to reduce the church's efficiency.

He expressed his attitude directly and firmly: "Your Majesty, I have to disappoint you. For the church, letting me become the pope is really not the best choice."

"You should think about it carefully, I will still nominate you to be a cardinal," the pope's tone became cold.

You can also force him to get promoted. Crown wanted to face-palm. Why didn't he encounter such a good thing in his previous life?

Seeing that the Pope was no longer interested in talking, he said:

"Your Majesty, I would like to check out the knowledge on how sixth-level transcendental beings advance."

The last time he came to the Holy See, he browsed through the library and found that knowledge at levels above Silver was very scarce, and knowledge at Level 6 could not be found at all.

He does not think that the church does not contain such knowledge, he can only say that this knowledge is stored somewhere in the church and is not open to him.

"Haha," the Pope laughed with unknown meaning, "I was also curious and wanted to read this kind of knowledge."

"I learned later that I didn't have the opportunity to know so many troubles in vain. Let's go, I will show you the most secret library of the church."

The two left the living room, walked through the corridor, crossed the arch, and entered the underground sanctuary of the church.

Walking down the passage filled with torches, the two soon arrived at the lowest level of the sanctuary.

Osman opened a room in the sanctuary, and Crown stepped into it. There was a high dome inside, but it was unusually empty. There was not a single bookshelf in sight, and only some metal nameplates and labels hung on the four walls.

On the label, written are the title of each book and the requirements for obtaining it.

"All the secret knowledge accumulated by the church is here. There is no restriction on borrowing it, as long as your ability reaches it."

Osman walked to a certain label and put his hand under the label. The originally smooth stone wall glowed red, and then a drawer moved out.

The pope picked up the books inside and raised them: "The magic circle here can tell the strength of your soul. If you reach a certain level, you can borrow books at that level.

The sixth-level knowledge is in that wall. If you can borrow it, you must let me see it.

Let me tell you in advance that the magic circle here is connected to the sanctuary. The magic circle cannot be destroyed by violence. If your attack reaches the limit of the magic circle, the books here will be automatically destroyed. "

Crown listened to his words and walked straight to the innermost wall, which was where the six levels of knowledge from the Pope's mouth were located.

After glancing at it, he stopped in front of the title "Soul Ascension - The Stairway to God".

He imitated the other party's approach and touched his hand next to the label. Suddenly, the magic circle was activated, and he felt an inexplicable breath passing over his body.

‘Insufficient authority, it is detected that the borrower’s soul strength is level five, please continue to work hard! ’

A beautiful female voice echoed in the empty hall, and then Osman laughed heartily:

"Haha. This is the drawing of the magic circle left by the gods. This sound is made by a fragment of the soul of a powerful heroic priest. She is responsible for regulating the operation of the magic circle.

It is said that everyone who enters here for the first time will do the same actions as you, but when I hear the words 'keep up the good work', I still can't help but laugh. "

Croun was embarrassed there. Does this count as being despised by the artificial intelligence? !

"Young man, don't be too ambitious!"

Osman left with his hands behind his back, "You can look around and use your badge if you want to leave the sanctuary."

As the Pope left, the door to the library slowly closed.

Crown's embarrassment has disappeared. He found the five-level secret method of flame breath and put his hand on the magic circle.

This secret method probably won't bring him any help, but it can broaden his horizons.

At this time, Osman stood in the passage. The torch hit his shadow on the wall. A tentacle-like thing protruded from the shadow, and then waved wildly. His face seemed to be melting like a heated wax statue.

He raised his head, squinted his eyes and felt the breath at the tip of his nose, feeling intoxicated:

"It's so pure and delicious. You are destined to merge with me. Let us be great together."

In the guest room, bright lights dispel the darkness of the night, leaving shadows in the corners.

Flanders poured a glass of gin, and the wine created layers of changing light in the transparent glass.

He took a sip of wine, narrowed his eyes slightly and thought:

"The gin in Bligh is the best in the continent, and the gin served in St. Peter's Basilica is even better. It has a mellow taste and a long aftertaste. You must not miss it."

Crown took a breath, discerned the strength of the alcohol, shook his head and said:

"I have no interest in hard liquor."

In his previous life, he had painful memories of being injured after drinking alcohol, which developed to the point where his stomach would turn upside down just by the smell of alcohol. Later, he only drank pineapple beer.

"You have done a lot of good things," Flanders put down his glass and said:

"Osman's behavior today is very abnormal. The Pope's robe is usually worn during major celebrations. It has the function of isolating detection. I always feel that he is hiding something."

The holy robe isolates the breath, and no one can sense the light of the pope's soul.

He paused for two seconds and then said:

"The Pope wants to see you for something, can you tell me?"

Crown nodded: "We didn't chat for a long time. He kept persuading me to become the pope, but of course I would not agree.

Later, I went to the library in the sanctuary and read through the fourth-level and fifth-level knowledge, and gained a little bit. "

[Demon Scholar: 296/8000; Level 4] (You know the habits of most high-level monsters, understand the value of monster flesh and blood, and your recipes have expanded!)

[Hermes Language: 2054/8000; Level 3] (This language has always been called the language closest to dragon language. You can feel the flow of energy when chanting it.)

These two knowledge skills have improved their proficiency by more than 3,000 points in total, which is his biggest gain today.

Flanders sighed sourly:

“Indeed, considering the power of your bloodline, the biggest benefit of becoming the Pope has lost its appeal.

Such a good opportunity is not worth mentioning in your eyes, making those who are vying for the position of Pope feel envious and toothache. "

Crown spread his hands: "If you intend to compete for the position of pope, you can also give it a try.

You have had enough time to become a cardinal and have enough prestige. In my opinion, you have a good chance of becoming the pope. "

"If I had such an opportunity before I got the Golden Light Taoist Seed, I would definitely seize it. Now, the position of the Pope is not so fragrant."

By becoming the Pope, you can use more resources to advance on the extraordinary path, but the Golden Light Spell can also play the same role. Therefore, Flanders is less coveted for the position of the Pope.

Kingdom of the Hinterlands, Storm Spire.

This is the Holy See of the Lord of Storms Church, and the conference hall is in a commotion at the moment.

Since the fall of Sinsaro's seaport, the situation in the kingdom immediately began to become turbulent, and more and more variants of marine life have set foot on this land.

Now, the church holds a meeting to discuss decisions and determine a course of action.

Pope Andre Williams picked up the scepter and shook the ground heavily, and said solemnly: "Silence!"

His voice was as powerful and passionate as thunder on a rainy day, and he immediately suppressed all comments.

"You are all powerful men at the level of a red-clothed archbishop. If you are so noisy, it will make people laugh if word spreads!"

“The situation in the kingdom is now in turmoil, and we must come up with a feasible plan to deal with it.

The envoys sent to other churches have come back one after another, but our request still has not received the attention it deserves. Although other churches have agreed to send troops to support us, the number of troops cannot play a big role in the current situation. "

"Your Majesty, the Church has sacrificed a lot for the peace of the entire continent. If we hadn't resisted desperately, the Evil God's Familia would have spread the flames of war across the entire continent.

It's not fair that we have sacrificed so much and let other countries enjoy the benefits.

I suggest that the passage be opened so that the forces of the evil god can pour into other countries. "

"Second! The church has already killed four silver-level extraordinary people, and the number of casualties among the lower-level troops is not counted.

What is the purpose of such a sacrifice for our Silver Level Extraordinary? It’s not about letting other churches sit back and enjoy the gains.

Fighting against the evil god's resurrection is a continent-wide matter, not a private matter of our Storm Lord Church. "

"Agree. Let's release the defense lines of the Kingdom of Rybia and the Kingdom of Potamia, so that these guys who are enjoying the benefits can also feel the ferocity of the evil god."

Andre nodded secretly. The Hinterland Kingdom was destined to be unable to hold on with their own strength. Instead of letting the situation slowly deteriorate, it was better to make other attempts while their own people still had strong strength.

He said "hmm" and said: "Everyone, we are starting to vote. Archbishops who agree to implement the plan to give way to the passage please raise your hands."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone raised their arms.

"Okay, since everyone agrees, let's make a plan. There is no reason for our church to bear the burden for other countries on the mainland."

As soon as I closed my eyes and opened them again, the two days passed by in a blink of an eye.

After breakfast, Crown, Flender and others went to the sanctuary to hold a meeting of cardinals.

Today, all silver levels will meet first to set a framework for future decisions.

There was an extra silver-level transcendent in the Pope's line, but Cavendi died in the Rhine City. After this addition and subtraction, Flanders and others no longer had an advantage in the cardinal meeting.

The group entered the conference room of the sanctuary and were surprised to find that Osman and others were already seated.

The Pope glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice:

“Gentlemen, I declare that the Council of Cardinals is now open.

There are new faces joining this meeting, and there are also familiar old faces who have given their lives to the cause of the church.

The speed of the evil god's recovery has begun to accelerate. In this increasingly severe era, I propose that His Excellency Croun Moya serve as the red archbishop of Porto Province. He has reached the fifth level of transcendence and is fully qualified for the position of red archbishop. "

Crown narrowed his eyes slightly in annoyance. He had already made it clear that he did not want to become a red archbishop, so why didn't the other party give up? !

He stood up and sternly refused: "Your Majesty, I have stated my point of view before. I have no intention of becoming a red archbishop!"

Being an archbishop is a waste of time. Wouldn't it be nice to have more free time to gain experience? !
