Chapter 31 The First Sermon
Klein felt no surprise at all about Patrick Brann's answer, and nodded gently:
"What time has this been your life?"
As far as he knows, the "undead" dies every sixty years, is resurrected, and forgets most of the past memories, which need to be slowly retrieved in the future, just like opening a new life.
This is the knowledge that the potion will come with. Patrick Brand easily understood the meaning of the God-lovers on the other side, and thought about the following words:
"I'm not over 50 and have been a 'undead' for less than 10 years."
Klein asked:
"When did you convert to my Lord?"
The "Lord" here refers to the Lord of the Underworld.
Brann recalled for two or three seconds:
"At that time, I just celebrated my 30th birthday."
He entered the mysterious world at the age of 30 and embarked on an extraordinary path. He became a demigod in Sequence 4 in less than 40... This speed is not amazing, but it means that he is probably a god's favor... Ha, sure enough, in that ceremony, his spirit and body were affected by the "uniqueness" path of "Death"... Klein listened and thought, and became more confident about his previous speculation.
Of course, compared to his transformation from an ordinary person to a sequence 4 demigod in just one year, Patrick Brann's promotion speed is simply not worth mentioning.
Klein didn't feel that there was anything to sigh at about this, because he was indeed a "goddess" and there were more than one plug-in.
The only problem is that the rewards currently received are not known whether those gifts are sufficient.
After pondering for a moment, Klein turned to ask:
"What is your identity now?"
"I am a businessman and I have opened two ready-to-wear factories in Beckland. I believe in the goddess of night and am a supporter of the new party..." Patrick Brann introduced.
Klein almost "hoosh" his voice and continued to ask:
"How many members of the Spiritual Cult under your command are doing, and what are they doing?"
Brann replied smoothly and preparedly:
"Two groups, twelve extraordinary people, some of them work in my garment factory, some of them work in watch shops, and each has formal careers.
"Usually, they will spread God's faith around them with caution. This is a slow progress and is not the main purpose. The total number of believers does not exceed one hundred.
“Most of the time, they are collecting clues about various things left by God, as well as the different materials needed for the awakening ceremony.
"With clues, we will carry out some actions accordingly. After the materials are complete, we will experiment with different awakening rituals to find the most effective one. I am the host of the action and the core element of the ritual."
It sounds very proud... Klein asked about other situations and received detailed answers.
Finally, he thought for a while and spoke with a serious expression:
"Follow God's orders, and from now on, you obey my commands."
Patrick Brann immediately stood up and gave a solemn salute:
"Yes, your best friend."
Klein nodded slightly and said:
"The first point is to stop all kinds of rituals and stop collecting materials. God has been awakened initially and is in the recovery stage. He cannot let the noisy 'vocals' disturb Him."
In Klein's view, no matter how the form of Brann and his rituals change, ultimately point to the artificial god of death, that is, the "uniqueness" of the "God of Death", which will make it more active and deepen, which is not conducive to the goddess' further mastery.
Regardless of whether Klein is happy to see similar situations happen, since the "Goddess of Night" has allowed Breon to come, he has to make such arrangements.
Patrick Brann had no doubt about his argument, because "Death" has indeed awakened, and the essence of "awakening" itself is "disturbance".
The "undead" thought for a while and asked:
"Your Excellency, what do we need to do next?"
Klein smiled approvingly:
"Continue to find clues to what God has left behind, which will help His recovery faster."
Speaking of this, Klein had to make a second request, but because he was worried that there were too few similar clues, the members of the Spiritual Cult will not be able to find something to do and cause other situations, so he added:
"In addition, you and your subordinates should carry out extensive literacy and reading activities in the garment factory and other areas of their activities, and set up night schools or study classes to get rid of ignorance and barbarity of the people around you."
To strengthen the persuasion, Klein stretched out his right hand and pressed his front chest, and began to preach with extraordinary devout :
“God said that he must understand what he believes in order to be faithful.
"God said that to the confused, he will first strengthen his body and arm his mind, for the kingdom he promised is free from barbarity and foolishness."
Patrick Blaine did not question Dawn Dontes's words. It was no wonder why these two sentences were not recorded in the sacred texts of the Spiritual Cult, because the other party was the follower of the gods and the appointed agent of the gods!
He nodded sincerely:
“I will keep God’s teachings in mind.
"May every spirit be eternal in the kingdom of God!"
While speaking, he used the prayer posture of the current spiritual sect, which was to raise his hands high, his thumbs facing each other, and press his forehead against the center.
In the corresponding mystic theory, this is the core of the underworld in every "guardian" body, referring to the position of the god of death.
Klein replied with the same gesture and words, and said:
"The second point is that no matter who the orders sent from the Southern Continent originate, you must submit them to me first and only do them after getting my permission. If you do not allow them, you cannot do them privately and can only give feedback as I wish."
He was worried that Haitle, the great priest, was still keen on the artificial death plan, and would instruct Patrick and others to make new attempts from time to time.
At the same time, he also had to ensure that the goddess further grasped the "uniqueness" of the "God of Death" path, Haitre and the other two saints would not notice the clues and avoid them from making fierce responses.
Brann still has no objection to this:
"Yes, your best friend!"
After giving the two most important things, Klein remained unchanged on the surface, relaxed a little in his heart, and said with a careful consideration:
"Third point, if I had not summoned you, you must not come to me on your own initiative, and your usual contact will be completed through messengers.
"You know, many existences in the astral world don't want to see God resurrected."
Patrick Brann said with a heavy emphasis:
"I see.
"My messenger's call is 'the spirits who travel in the upper realm, absolutely friendly creatures, Patrick Brann's covenant'."
Sure enough, a demigod who is the "God of Death" path cannot have no messenger... Normally, this path can have Sequence 6... Klein said without hesitation, speaking at a slow speed:
"Remember, my messenger's call is 'The spirit wandering in the vain, the friendly creature that can be driven, belongs to German Sparrow', and well, whether you receive or send a letter, you need to give a gold coin to complete the agreement."
Klein intentionally revealed the relationship between German Sparo and Dawn Dontes, mainly to see how the other party will react.
"Gelman Sparrow..." Patrick Breen repeated the name in confusion, and then suddenly realized it, and called it in surprise, "His Highness, the Consul of Death?"
Fortunately, although it is a by-product of the ceremony and a passion for faith, it has at least a normal IQ, can consciously collect intelligence and complete the analysis of the problem... Klein breathed a sigh of relief and responded with a smile:
"I'm not, He is my teacher."
Bran nodded thoughtfully, feeling that he had a clear grasp of the whole thing.
Klein guessed what he thought, but ignored it, raised his right leg, held his hands on his knees, and asked instead:
"What do you know about other factions of the Spirit Cult Order?"
Patrick Brann sat down again and said:
"The most powerful branch within the Spiritual Cult is the royal family. They have created multiple organizations with the descendants of God as the core...
"Their leader is currently a god with a thin bloodline named Shiya Palenque Eggs. She may be an angel, and may be in charge of the important relics of God, calling herself the "Pale Queen"...
"In addition to her, there are five saints in the royal family, partly real demigods, partly relying on seals...
"The rest of the branches besides the royal family and us are weak, mainly the Sleeping Sect and the Underworld Sect... They have three strong men with the same strength as saints..."
When Brann finished speaking, Kline nodded invisibly:
"Let's just be here today. Please contact me if you have any questions later."
"Yes, your best friend." Patrick Brann stood up and saluted and retreated to the door.
The door was silently open, and the "shadows" outside were spacious and the wind was flowing.
When everything calmed down, Klein glanced at the closed wooden door, walked to the window, opened the curtain, and looked at the street.
There were several carriages there at some time, and two horse lanterns were hung in front of each. The light of the horse lantern was extremely pale and shining with shade green, making the surroundings blurred.
In such a vague scene, almost transparent figures clustered on both sides and the front and back, wearing dress-like illusory clothes, which looked quite formal.
When Patrick Brann landed in mid-air and returned there, the figures crawled at the same time, greeting the demigod and the spirit beside him, boarding a few carriages that could only be seen vaguely, and then hugged the convoy and drove into the distance.
The pale light shining with a little dark green became dimmer and faded, and finally disappeared into the darkness, as if it had never appeared before.
Klein withdrew his gaze and said to himself in his heart with a slightly calm expression:
"Although Patrick Brann received the oracle from the goddess' consideration from all aspects, I always feel that Beckland and even the undercurrents in the whole world are getting more and more surging.
"I don't know when they will make waves..."
