The Original Vampire

Chapter 340: Secrets of the Church (Part 1)

Swan City, the glorious church.

In the tall and spacious prayer hall, Archbishop Adjani is following the requirements of the ceremony and guiding the believers to pray.

Today happens to be Sunday. According to church customs, all believers need to pray on this day.

Of course, no matter how big the prayer hall of the church is, it is impossible to accommodate all the residents of Swan City. Those who can stand in the hall and worship are basically the noble lords of Swan City.

As for civilians, they can only squeeze in the square outside the church, on the street, and even in front of their homes.

With the deepening of the prayer, the white crystal scepter in Ajani's hand gradually bloomed with white gold holy light, which complemented the brilliant morning light, spreading throughout the prayer hall, and spreading continuously, coating the entire Swan City. A layer of sacred brilliance.

At this moment, Swan City showed its most sacred side.

Under the brilliance of such a vast miracle, hundreds of thousands of believers knelt on one knee, clasped their hands together, and praised the Supreme Glory Lord in unison:

"Praise my lord! May your brilliance last forever and illuminate our way forward!"

After the ceremony, everyone got up under the guidance of Archbishop Adjani, then cleared up their hearts and started a new day.

The nobles in the prayer hall also dispersed, only Count Schultz was left by Archbishop Adjani.

"Master Earl, hasn't Viscount Angley returned yet?"

Count Schultz shook his head and said: "No, I have sent someone to find it, I believe it will be soon..."

"No need to look for it, I'm already back."

As soon as the voice fell, I saw Colin strode into the prayer hall and said with a smile: "Sorry, Your Excellency, I'm back late, I haven't had time to catch up with the morning prayer on Sunday."

Ajani smiled slightly and motioned to the other party not to care, and then asked curiously: "Have you caught Lucien?"

Colin shrugged and said helplessly: "Hey, let him run away!"

Adjani nodded suspiciously, and comforted: "If a Tier 6 fighter wants to escape, it will be difficult to keep. However, don’t worry, I’ve reported the matter to Yulongcheng, and the Pope will send a saint. The Templar arrested Lucien."

Colin nodded, unwilling to say much in this regard, and planned to leave.

Adjani asked to stay when she saw this, "Viscount Angele, can you keep it?"

Hearing this, Colin suppressed the doubts in his heart, nodded and said: "Okay."

When Earl Schultz saw this, he saluted: "My lord guardian, your archbishop, then I'll go first."

"good."

Adjani looked at the distant shadow of Earl Schultz, and suddenly smiled and said: "Your Excellency, Earl Schultz's attitude towards you is really respectful."

Colin said indifferently: "I am now the guardian of the North that has been enshrined by His Majesty himself. Isn't her attitude taken for granted?"

Adjani looked at Colin with profound eyes, and said, "So that's it! I thought it was because of the blood cavalry 50 kilometers north of Swan City?"

Colin's pupils shrank slightly and said in surprise: "Do you know all this?"

Adjani blinked and said in a playful tone: "Yes, a pious bird told me."

That's right, when he realized that Earl Schultz might be unkind, Colin notified the blood cavalry to come to Swan City.

In his plan, if Earl Schultz, who was converted into blood, failed to hold his ground under the pressure of Lucian and chose to betray, then Colin would activate the "Plan B" and let the blood cavalry Set out to settle everything.

Fortunately, Earl Schultz didn't let Colin down. In that case, Colin didn't need to be cruel to wash the Neuschwanstein Castle.

But I didn't expect that the blood cavalry hiding outside the city would be known to Adjani.

Of course Colin would not believe that the so-called "a pious bird" revealed the trail of the blood cavalry. It must be a letter reported to the church by believers along the way.

To tell the truth, Colin has always admired and envied the church's intelligence capabilities, and of course, there is also fear.

However, this also made Colin aware of a problem-did Earl Schultz also know the whereabouts of the blood cavalry in advance?

If she knew it, when she faced Lucian before, the reason why she did not betray Colin was because of her blood or because she knew that the blood cavalry was nearby. , It will only be destroyed?

Just as Colin was lost in thought, Adjani's voice sounded again: "Your Excellency, what are you thinking?"

"It's nothing." Colin responded casually, and then turned to ask, "You just left me down. Is there anything wrong?"

"Please come with me." Ajani smiled mysteriously, crossed Colin and walked straight out.

Colin was curious in his heart, so he followed suit step by step.

The two of them walked out of the prayer hall, then down the spiral staircase, and came to a dim corridor.

Every few steps on both sides of the corridor, there are fully armored guards, and they bowed their heads to salute after seeing Ajani.

After about a quarter of an hour, a steel gate appeared in front of him.

The guard in front of the door saluted Adjani, and then opened the door.

"Viscount Anglia, please." Ajani made a gesture to let Colin go first.

Colin smiled slightly and strode forward.

The space inside the door is more spacious than Colin had imagined, but it is a bit too empty. Except for the sculpture of the Lord of Glory in the center and the small water pool in front of the sculpture, there is nothing else, which makes people wonder if it is just for Put these two things, why should such a large space be dug underground?

Looking around, Colin didn't see any light source, but the entire space was filled with holy light, and darkness had nowhere to hide.

Bang!

After Ajani came in, the iron door closed again.

Colin turned his head and asked, "Where is this place?"

Adjani didn't answer, her eyes were a bit blurred, she didn't seem to hear Colin's questioning, she just walked slowly towards the statue.

Colin frowned and followed.

Coming to the statue of Lord of Radiance, Adjani slumped on the ground religiously, praying silently.

Colin had no choice but to kneel down on one knee to the statue, but he couldn't help looking at the pool in front of the statue from the corner of his eyes.

The pool is not big, about three meters in diameter, and the water inside is very shallow.

However, he was surprised to find that the lake was not ordinary water, but more like holy water!

Gurgling...

Colin couldn't help but swallowed quietly.

After a while, Ajani finished her prayer and stood up again.

Colin asked immediately: "Is there holy water in this?"

Adjani stared at the faceless statue of Lord of Radiance, and said without turning her head, "No."

Clin was a little disappointed at once, and then asked: "Then what is this?"

Ajani finally turned around, her eyes full of inexplicable meaning, and she whispered softly:

"These are accumulated powers of faith."

"The power of faith?" It was the first time that Colin knew that faith could be realized.

"Yes.

Deities protect mankind with great power, and mankind serves deities with faith.

When everyone prays to our lord, they will have the power of faith, and these powers of faith will be taken up by the glorious cathedrals of each parish and gathered into the space similar to ours. "

Colin rubbed his chin, stared at the swaying water in the pool, and asked: "Then what is the use of these powers of faith?"

Adjani shook her head and said: "The pastor's cultivation requires the power of faith, but we only need a very small part of it. Most of the power of faith is what our lord needs."

Colin nodded thoughtfully, then asked: "This should be the secret of the church, why are you telling me this?"

Adjani did not answer this question, but said to herself: "Did you know? The power of faith is gathered in this space, liquefied in the holy pond, and then absorbed by my lord through the statue."

"So?" Colin was puzzled.

Adjani pointed to the water pool in front of her, and asked in a deep voice, "Look, has the'water' in this pool been absorbed?"

Ke Lin squinted his eyes and looked for a long while, and found that the "water" in the pool had not decreased, but was increasing.

Because today is Sunday, Archbishop Adjani just presided over the morning prayer in person, so the power of faith came surging, and the pool of water soon filled up, and then—

Spilled out!

"What happens if it overflows?"

"The power of the liquefied faith will disappear after leaving the holy pond."

Sure enough, Colin saw that the "water" disappeared after overflowing.

Now, he also realized that something was wrong.

Since the Lord of Radiance needs these powers of faith, how can these powers of faith overflow and not receive them?

"Is it... something is wrong with this statue?" Colin guessed.

Adjani shook her head, and said in a deep voice: "All the holy pools under the Glory Cathedral in the North Territory are like this, even the holy pool below the Holy Light Cathedral in the Royal Dragon City... the same, the power of faith has not been affected. Collect it, but overflow the holy pond, which is wasted for nothing."

Colin squinted his eyes and asked solemnly: "I still want to know ~www.readwn.com~Why are you showing this to me?"

The things that Adjani exposed to Kelin, if they really want to leak out, will definitely trigger a crisis of faith!

The Lord of Radiance has stopped accepting human offerings. What does this mean?

Adjani still did not answer this question, but instead asked, "Do you know why the Black Emperor was killed three hundred years ago?"

Colin moved in his heart and said, "Could he find this secret?"

"Yes." Adjani nodded, "However, what really ringed the death knell of the Black Emperor was a sentence he once said."

"What did he say?"

"He said……"

The expression on Ajani's face suddenly became extremely complicated:

"The **** is dead!"
