Invincible priest, out of the courtroom

Nota was stunned when he heard it, and he never expected that anyone could analyze such teachings from such myths.

"Senior, what you said seems to make sense."

Rorschach nodded, and continued:

"It makes sense, that's why we have to change our previous style and become more down-to-earth, so that we can preach smoothly."

"And I have always felt that the goddess is kind and kind, so the church should also be warm and comfortable, which can make people feel relaxed. The way of the Northland should be corrected long ago."

What he said was so straightforward that Nota didn't know how to refute, so he could only ask in turn:

"Although but, why is there not even a statue of a goddess here?"

"Heh~ How can such an important thing as the statue be entrusted to an outsider? It must be carved by myself!"

The Undertaker: Chapter 17 17. Artistic Accomplishments

For a church, the statue is the most important and core part, and carving the statue by yourself is naturally a process of practicing faith.

It is naturally impossible for Nota to object, and even said in surprise:

"It turns out that senior still has artistic attainments in this area? I really can't see it. I feel that every time I know more about senior, I will be more surprised."

"I'm overwhelmed, and more surprises are yet to come... Okay, let's get down to business first, we still have to be busy."

After speaking, Rorschach walked through the back door of the church to the edge of the garden behind, then opened the basement door, walked down a few flights of stairs, and came to the underground wine cellar.

According to his request, the useless wine rack has been removed, and the space left has been replaced with a wooden flower stand, with soil already tamped inside.

And in the corner, there is a pair of large display cabinets, also with upper, middle and lower floors.

"Well, it's good, but the light is too dim."

As Rorschach said, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

The surroundings suddenly lit up.

But there is no specific light source. It is more like the bright sunlight outside directly penetrated the ground and swayed in. The warm light filled the entire basement.

Only then did Luo Xia nodded in satisfaction, walked to the display cabinet, took out the snakeskin sack from his waist, took out the collection inside, and arranged them neatly one by one.

There are also special classifications, human-shaped, animal-shaped, and indescribable shapes are placed on different layers.

After sorting out the treasured figures, he started to do other chores.

Although we have already moved into the new church, there are still many things to do, such as cleaning, tidying up, purchasing supplies, carving statues, etc., etc., and we have to finish all the chores before we can open for business.

He and Nota are only two people, and they have been busy for another week before they can be regarded as tidying up. There is a feeling that newlyweds are working hard to take care of their new home.

The statues of the goddess have also been carved, and there are still two statues, one large, stone, placed in the center of the small fountain square in front of the main entrance, and you can see it when you walk in the gate; the other is slightly smaller, wooden, hanging Inside the church, facing the door, you can see it when you walk into the church.

The two statues were carved by Rorschach himself, without using any tools, completely freehand, which can be regarded as absolutely hand-carved.

This is not very difficult for him, as long as he ignites the holy flame on his finger, and then raise the temperature a little bit, it can be as sharp as a hot knife, and cutting stone and wood is like cutting butter with a hot knife.

However, Nota seemed to criticize Rorschach's sculptures.

"Senior, this statue...is it a little...not quite like it?"

She stood on the fountain square, looked at the god statue in front of her, carefully considered her words, and then asked very subtly.

It is said to be a statue of a goddess, but it is just a vague outline of a human figure, and the gender can barely be distinguished.

In addition, there is no appearance, temperament, clothing and demeanor at all, as if covered with a thick layer of mosaic, quite abstract, with a large amount of blank space, leaving plenty of room for imagination.

Compared with those exquisite, gorgeous, lifelike, and lifelike goddess statues in the Northland, this statue produced by Rorschach is not a difference in resolution, and it is not in the same dimension at all.

Rorschach did not answer Nota's question, but turned to look southeast.

It wasn't until Nota grabbed his arm with both hands and shook it vigorously that he managed to regain his senses, and replied confidently:

"What's the matter? Is there any problem? I have seen the goddess with my own eyes. She is such a beauty. It is absolutely 100% perfect. It can be said to be the masterpiece of my life..."

"How is it? Is my artistic attainment not bad?"

What he said was also the truth. When he was resurrected, the goddess he saw was really like this.

"No...this..."

Nota hesitated to speak.

According to incomplete statistics, about 95% of the people in the entire Northland claimed to have seen the goddess with their own eyes and listened to her teachings.

Not in a dream, but in imagination.

The so-called sculptures and oil paintings are also artistic processing and secondary creations carried out by believers based on the image of the goddess in their minds.

After all, those highly aesthetic and artistic works are also made up by believers, and they are of the same nature as Rorschach's works.

So Nota wanted to complain about something, but felt that he couldn't grasp the point...

"Okay, it's time to eat."

Rorschach said again.

Soon, in the dining room of the clergy dormitory next to the garden in the backyard, Rorschach prepared today's dinner.

A square dining table, covered with a clean white tablecloth, three sets of white porcelain dinner plates inlaid with gold rims, and silver knives and forks with exquisite patterns, besides there are bottles of seasonings and a gold-plated candlestick .

At first glance, it is the kind of very warm, delicate and ceremonial dinner.

On the dinner plate, there are simple and classic dishes——

baked beans

"Senior...we've been eating baked potatoes for three days."

Nota sat down opposite Rorschach, and whispered, with an indelible sadness on her lovely pretty face.

Luo Xia didn't answer in a hurry, and looked through the window to the distance in the southeast direction.

However, he quickly tied the napkin around his neck, picked up the knife and fork, and cut the baked potato into small pieces.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Nota continued to ask:

"Senior, is the church out of money? If you need money, I still have..."

When Luo Xia heard this, he quickly turned around and corrected him seriously:

"Knight Nota, don't have such thoughts, haven't you said it before? A simple life is also a kind of penance, and penance is the test and temper of faith."

He said that on the first day of eating baked potatoes.

There is no way, Rorschach is really out of money. The purchase of the church and follow-up arrangements have basically spent all the money he brought. Now there are only a few silver coins left in his pocket, which is not enough to make up a 648 on the earth.

But as the pastor in charge of this church, it is impossible for him to really use the money of other apprentice knights, so he can only enter the penance life in advance.

Fortunately, potatoes are still very cheap, so they won't starve to death.

"Ugh... If you keep eating this..."

Nota muttered in a low voice, looking down at his chest.

Eyes are clear and unobstructed.

"Well, your worries are justified."

As Rorschach said, he picked up the baked potato prepared for the goddess next to him, cut off half of it, and handed it to Nota's plate.

Nota couldn't laugh or cry for a while.

Seniors have always been very gentle people.

It's just that his tenderness occasionally goes in the wrong direction, making him at a loss...

Undertaker: Chapter 18 18. Protect Yourself

Nota was thinking wildly, and found that Rorschach looked out the window again, so he couldn't help asking curiously:

"Is there anything over there?"

"It's nothing, just a little noise."

Rorschach answered casually and looked away.

After a simple dinner, Nota went back to her room and looked for a fashion magazine.

Rorschach had a brief exercise in the back garden, and then went to the basement to practice magic.

The basement at night is not as bright as it is during the day. As the outside world changes, the bright sunlight is replaced by bright moonlight, coating the interior with a layer of cool moonlight.

For the time being, there are no new magic spells for Rorschach to learn from the Black Textbook, so he pulled out the magic spells he had learned before and practiced them repeatedly to increase his proficiency.

For unskilled magic, even if one masters it, one needs to recite prayers and use mudras to guide the movement of the holy energy in the body when performing it, which is quite troublesome.

But if one can be proficient in a certain divine art to the point where it can be commanded by one's arm, or even mastered, it can be performed with a simple snap of the fingers, which is much more convenient.

So Luo Xia has been working hard to practice the divine arts, striving to be proficient in all the divine arts he has mastered to the level of mastery.

In this way, he was practicing alone in the basement, sometimes making handprints, sometimes chanting words, casting magic spells a thousand times in a row before stopping, and then took out a pocket watch to look at.

"It seems that the state is not bad recently? The time to cast a thousand magic spells is 3 minutes faster than before. It seems that this missionary journey has been very rewarding. The practice of faith has made me stronger again. little bit."

Luo Xia nodded in satisfaction, and then left the basement, intending to go back to rest.

And with the use of the magic spell, the entire basement seemed a little more spacious than before, and the soil in the wooden flower bed also showed signs of loosening, as if something was conceived inside and wanted to break out of the ground.

After Luo Xia locked the door of the basement, he looked towards the southeast again and muttered:

"Isn't it? After all, this is also the city of oracle, shouldn't it... Or, why don't you go and have a look?"

It was midnight at this time, and although some places were still brightly lit, the whole city had quieted down and slowly fell asleep.

Luo Xia was hesitating, when a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, he suddenly remembered the dumb-haired magic technique he had learned recently.

So he quickly formed a handprint on his hand, and snapped his fingers again, causing a dull hair to stand on the top of his head, followed by a blind sound of 'rustling' in his ears.

Then, facing southeast, he patiently and carefully adjusted the angle of Daimao until he heard a different sound in his ears.

It seemed that a group of people were talking in a low voice, the words were slurred and could not be understood, but the rhythm and tone were uniform, and it felt like they were chanting a certain name in unison, which seemed extraordinarily strange.

Amidst the bursts of babbling, there were faint sobs mixed in, followed by another pleading:

"Please, please let my daughter go..."

"Seal his mouth, don't let the sacrifice disturb the lord."

After a shrill scream, only the low and indistinct raving sound remained in Luo Xia's ears.

"Heh~ This is the city of oracle?"

Luo Xia sneered, and made a gesture to turn over the courtyard wall and rush to the direction where the voice came from.

But suddenly thought of something, and stopped.

"No, I can't just pass by like this. The goddess has taught me that I should be humble and low-key, not arrogant, and I should keep my body clean and take care of myself."

While recalling the goddess' teachings, Rorschach went back to his room first.

He planned to change his clothes first, so as not to dirty the only two teaching robes, so he took out the high-end black tuxedo that Cilarrael had given him, and put on the top hat, gloves, pocket watch, leather shoes and so on one by one. , and finally stood in front of the full-length mirror.

Hmm...how should I say it?Handsome is definitely still handsome.

But his face is a bit tender, he can't wear that elegant gentleman's feeling, he looks more like a bartender...

Luo Xia had no choice but to stretch out his left hand, with five fingers spread out, to block his face, and slowly brushed his face with his fingertips.

Immediately, a ball of pure white holy flame ignited on his face, and then condensed and changed to form a white mask, on which the holy flame could still be vaguely seen dancing.

A few black lines were left in the gaps of the Holy Flame, outlining a simple crescent-shaped mouth and eyes, like that kind of stick figure smile, wicked and wicked.

This was originally a magic spell of the protection system, the sixth-level [Holy Flame Armor], after being slightly modified, adjusted, deleted, deleted, and optimized by him, it became such a holy flame mask.

But after changing into new clothes, the black scripture could no longer be hidden in the sleeve like before. He could only stuff the scripture into the pocket of his jacket, so that the chain on top could be exposed and inserted into the sleeve of his right hand.

Rorschach thought about it again, and simply stretched out his hand to caress the cover of the textbook for a while, and put a white cover on it, covering the eight metal bumpers, and a pattern of a balance was revealed on the cover.

"That should be fine."

Luo Xia commented, the voice came out through the mask, became hoarse and deep, thick and powerful, and had a slight echo, as if it was pulsating and burning.

Then he picked up the matching metal cane, flipped out the window, and rushed towards the southeast following the guidance of the dull hair in the top hat.

Soon, he rushed to a house three blocks away.
