Archbishop Anthony of the Church of Light... was crowned pope. He knows the Church of Light better than anyone else, even better than the theological researchers on the main plane, because he burned many classics.
Many of the symbols, imprints, habits, patterns, etc. passed down by the ancient churches have been lost in the churches on the main plane.
So Anthony discovered that from time to time in the streets and alleys of Drogo City, some symbols and marks that he recognized would appear. They were very inconspicuous, like children scribbling carelessly, but Anthony followed them and discovered a lot of secret information.
From the message, Anthony found out that they were looking for ways to make rapeseed cakes that were "especially good at staving off hunger", so Anthony used his trick to catch them all with rapeseed cakes.
After an interrogation, it was revealed that they were Illuminati cultists lurking in Drogo City. When they were preaching among the victims, they tasted rapeseed cakes and immediately noticed the advantages of this food.
If you can master the production method, you can easily reduce the volume and weight of food to one-tenth of its original size, greatly reducing the pressure of transportation and storage.
In the past, one carriage could transport food for a hundred people, but now it can transport a thousand people. What originally required a thousand carriages, now only a hundred are needed.
The number of people eating horse chews on the road has also dropped by 90%, which means that transportation costs have dropped by 90%, and even the space for storing them can be greatly reduced.
This is an epoch-making technology.
So, the priest informed the Holy See of the news, and the Holy See quickly issued an order, requiring them to do their best to find the method of making this kind of food. Immediately, all the Illuminati cultists lurking in Drogo City started to move and quickly invested in the work. The great net laid by Anthony.
The interrogation revealed that the current power of the Church of Light is quite large, with a large number of believers and they are very wealthy.
Because they were suppressed by the undead, the Church of Light was unable to spread its faith openly and build various spectacle buildings that wasted people and money, so they now focused on making money and accumulated a lot of wealth.
When he heard that there were rich people, Anthony was moved, and he quickly escorted the people over to see if he could get their faith power. If he could, there was no need to kill them. Believers could provide a lot of faith power.
Ange didn't know, so he had to give it a try. They made a huge noise and then moved the blindfolded Illuminati to a new place.
…
Ai Guli was very scared and walked forward tremblingly. Her legs were weak and she almost fell down several times.
Countless horrific legends came to mind, such as zombies eating human brains, undead eating souls, skeletons peeling off skin and flesh, and living people being cut into skeletons.
In order to scare the believers, the church fabricated countless horrific legends and told them to them since childhood.
Especially when some undead creatures fall into the hands of undead creatures, unable to survive or die, they are conscious, but their skin and flesh gradually rot until they see maggots crawling around in their internal organs. This has led many devout believers to prefer to sacrifice instead. Death, burning the soul, rather than falling into the hands of the undead.
Ai Guli also wanted to die as a sacrifice, but unfortunately, she didn't learn how to sacrifice her soul. She couldn't die by biting her tongue. It was even harder to hit the wall. Instead, it might arouse the other party's anger. It would be tragic if she really tortured her like that. .
Just be obedient, answer all questions, and pray that the other party will be satisfied and grant her death.
It felt like I was being led to a closed space, because I could hear the echo of footsteps here. It should be a large space like a cave.
Ai Guli felt her blindfold being torn off, and a holy light suddenly entered her eyes. For a moment, she couldn't see anything, only a petite figure and six flapping wings.
After rubbing her eyes and getting used to the light, Aiguli saw clearly that the person who took off her blindfold was a six-winged archangel carrying an archangel staff and three pairs of wings on his back.
"Ah?!" Six-winged Archangel? Six-winged Archangel! Ai Guli couldn't help but exclaimed, but she immediately reacted and covered her mouth tightly with both hands.
Her companions repeated her actions. After their blindfolds were taken off, everyone looked at the six-winged archangel in front of them in horror.
what happened? Why is there a six-winged archangel? Have you reached the Kingdom of God?
Ai Guli has never seen the Seraphim Archangel. This name only exists in legends, and even the pictures do not dare to be passed down for fear of being discovered by the undead.
Only from the elder priest's narration did Aiguli know that the Seraphim Archangel has six wings, one of which is a pair of real wings and the remaining four are light wings.
Ai Guli looked carefully at the back of the little angel and saw the true wings and light wings that matched the legend, but...but...why did the legendary six-winged archangel suddenly appear in front of them.
This question echoed in the minds of all the Illuminati believers, and then was interrupted by a voice: "You idiots, I almost got exposed, idiots, do any of you act like this?"
Ai Guli and others followed the direction of the sound, and what they saw made them collectively gasp. They saw the person who caught them scolding them.
But that person was wearing the archbishop's robe, but it was more gorgeous and solemn, with richer and more fashionable details.
The Church of Light on the main plane has developed for thousands of years, and its aesthetics and design are much more fashionable than here.
Ai Guli and others were confused by this change for a while. They were caught. They thought they would die waiting for them, but they didn't expect that after taking off the blindfold, they saw a six-winged archangel and An Archbishop of Light, the Archbishop was still the one who caught them.
Anthony didn't care whether they were confused or not, and continued to scold: "We spent so much energy to sneak into the Temple of the Immortal, and prepared to quietly rebuild the church in their name, but you suddenly appeared all over the world to mess with me. The secret recipe? You almost exposed me. I should really have you all tied to the stake and burned to death."
There was no malice in his tone, but instead there was an elder's concern in it.
However, what he wanted to express was all revealed in these scolding words, "sneaking in" and "rebuilding the church" in their name. This clearly means that they are also members of the church.
Ai Guli asked weakly: "You...you mean, we almost ruined your plan, right?"
"Humph!" Anthony glared at her, grunted, took a deep breath, made an impatient gesture, turned around and saluted backwards.
Ange came over dressed in the garb of an ascetic monk.
"Ascetic... ascetic?" Aiguli exclaimed, ascetic, archbishop, six-winged archangel, what kind of lineup is this? Even the Shadow Pope she knew might have found a lineup that was different from this, right?
"Bold!" Then Anthony had already yelled: "This is Mr. An, the monk of Divine Grace. Please don't offend me."
Ai Guli quickly bent down and lowered her head.
Ange didn't say anything, and walked directly in front of Ai Guli, and the holy light shone on her body.
Under the holy light, the pain of being whipped before was relieved immediately. There were still blood stains on the naked arms, but under Ai Guli's gaze, they disappeared visibly. Even the old abdominal pain was gone. disappeared together.
Ai Guli's eyes widened in disbelief, what a powerful healing technique, what a powerful holy light.
A few seconds later, all the pain on Aiguli's body disappeared. Before she could recover, Ange walked up to the second believer and repeated the previous steps, which caused another exclamation.
Ange went from beginning to end and cured all the injuries of a dozen believers by himself, including three who were seriously injured and on the verge of death, and one who was seriously burned.
When the fourth person was treated, everyone's expressions changed. Even the most powerful priests and bishops they had seen could not achieve this kind of powerful holy power.
By the tenth treatment, everyone was already numb, and they began to believe that Anthony was talking about the monks of grace, even though they had never heard of the name.
On the fifteenth day of treatment, Ange suddenly frowned, took two steps back, carefully looked at the person in front of him, and then said lightly: "You are guilty."
Three shackles instantly popped up on the ground, tying up the fifteenth cultist.
"Original...original sin? Lock?!" Ai Guli screamed, her legs weakened uncontrollably, she knelt on the ground, tremblingly put her forehead to the ground, and prayed: "God said, be pious, unintentional Sin can be forgiven, original sin is inherent, pious faith can wash away original sin..."
Others followed suit, kneeling on the ground tremblingly, praying devoutly, for fear that the shackles of original sin would be tied to them.
They are now convinced that people like Ange are the church powers who have sneaked into the Temple of the Immortal, and they can definitely represent the will of God and judge sinners.
If anyone dares to question their identity, those who question must be fake, unless they can also bring out a seraph archangel, an archbishop, and a charismatic monk.
Ange felt that thick soul flames arose on these people's bodies and were thrown into his body. Among them, the one named Aiguli's belief was the thickest.
Under the yoke of original sin, the holy flame burned, directly burning the sinner to death.
Ai Guli took a quick glance, and her belief became stronger on the spot.
She knew that sinner. He took possession of a beautiful widow, let the widow earn all the food and clothing, and sold the widow's daughter. He was indeed a damned sinner.
Master Shen'en does not punish casually. Master Shen'en does not know the sinner, but he can see the sin of the other person at a glance. Oh my god, it turns out that what the elders said is true.
Ai Guli was deeply shocked.
She was raised by the church and grew up listening to various legends. She had some faith, but she couldn't tell how pious she was, because they had never seen anything from the legends.
When you grow up, you act secretly like a thief, for fear of being discovered by undead creatures. How can you have any dignity at all?
Now, those holy, powerful, and divine things in the legend appeared in front of him, and the puzzle of faith finally made up for the last shortcoming.
Ange also felt this change, pointed at her and said: "She is pious."
Anthony's eyes lit up: "Okay, sir."
The God of Libra personally confirmed it, and Anthony looked at Ai Guli differently, much more kindly.
"Everyone, get up. You are lucky. We have dealt with the people who escorted you. From now on, you will accept Ai Guli's direct leadership. Any orders I have will be handed over to her." Anthony said sternly.
Ai Guli raised her head suddenly, a little surprised and unbelievable.
Anthony walked up to her and said, "Follow me."
…
Until she left the cave and returned to the secret stronghold, a remote village, Aiguli still felt like she was in a dream.
After Anthony took her away, he tested her strength, and then gave her a storage ring, a magic ring, and a cloak that looked ordinary and strange.
But after Ai Guli put it on, she immediately noticed something strange. This cloak could actually hide her holy power.
Originally, her holy power was not strong and was dispensable, but Anthony gave her half of the Holy Spirit's heart.
Even though it was the lowest first-level Holy Spirit Heart and only had half of it, she still felt as if her Holy Power was going to be out of control at any time, overflowing from time to time.
But these fluctuations were all covered up by the cloak, and even his companions were not aware of it.
Forget it, the storage ring really shocked Ai Guli. This ring was enough to buy all the land near the village where she was born and raised. Anthony just gave it to her casually.
God, I am just an ordinary believer, not even a priest. Is it really appropriate to give these things to me?
"Appropriate, these are not precious things, what is precious is this of yours." Anthony pointed to his forehead: "Pious faith is the source of these things, and it is also the most powerful thing you have."
"My faith? The most powerful thing?" Ai Guli looked confused.
"Where have you learned all the sacred scriptures?" Anthony said with hatred: "Our strength comes from God's gift. Remember Mr. An? In times of crisis, read his name, and he can bring God to life." His favor is sent to you, this is your most powerful power."
"The stronger your belief in Mr. An, the more he will be able to protect you, do you understand?"
Firm belief, the greatest strength... Firm belief, the greatest strength... Aiguli kept chanting all the way back to the village.
As soon as she got home, before she had time to say anything to her family, her fat and money-grubbing stepmother had already seen the ring on her finger and walked up to her with gleaming eyes.
He reached out and grabbed the ring on her hand, and cursed: "Why are you back? You loser, where did you steal the ring? Show me."
Ai Guli shrank her hands and said, "It's not stolen, don't move."
One of them is a magic ring. According to Lord Anthony, a phoenix is sealed in it. If there is a lot of flames to lend it strength, it can burn a city.
What's more, she doesn't know what this woman is thinking? have a look? Don't even think about taking it back if it's in her hands.
The obese stepmother immediately became angry, raised her hand and scolded: "What are you talking about, you loser? How dare you talk to me like this, I..."
Ai Guli subconsciously wanted to lie down, but she soon realized that she was now a saint with the greatest strength and firm belief.
He immediately lifted up the hem of his skirt and kicked it out, hitting a circle of fat on the opponent's belly and knocking her to the ground.
"You... you... you dare to hit me? Ah——! Ah——!" The fat stepmother pointed at Ai Guli in disbelief, screaming and about to get up, and come up to tear Ai Guli's body apart. Mouth.
But it was too late, there were already five or six believers who came back with her, blocking the way of the fat woman.
Ai Guli imitated Anthony's tone and said lightly: "If you offend the saints, slap your mouth."
