Chapter 649 The biggest black history of Goddess Sect
Chapter 649: The biggest dark history of the Goddess Sect
The sacred hall was brightly lit and baptisms were taking place.
This is a wonderful building, which incorporates incomprehensible symbolic elements and small-scale law distortions during its construction. When standing outside the baptismal hall, you may think that you are just a taller person in front of you.
It's just a dome building, but when you walk inside, you will be amazed by the vast interior space of this building. It can accommodate twenty people for gatherings without appearing empty, and it can also accommodate millions of people for worship.
It doesn’t look crowded. Yes, the interior of the baptismal hall changes. The space here will always be in a just-right state. No matter how many believers come in, it will prepare a suitable enough position for you. “Don’t be disrespectful to the goddess by being empty.”
, not to bring shame to our Lord through crowding." This is the purpose of this temple's random changes in space.
The baptismal hall is a circular vaulted building without any columns or similar supports inside. There are only a few thick vines hanging from the high ceiling. The walls of the hall are painted with complicated pictures, which are different from ordinary ones.
The difference with religious patterns is that these murals do not depict the miracles of gods or the pilgrimage deeds of devout believers, but various wild animals, plants, and humans. These images represent the prosperity of life in the world. In fact, they
It includes every kind of life in the entire universe, even single-celled organisms - it is drawn on a one-to-one ratio. In Lilina's words, I drew it anyway, and you can't see it because of your eyesight.
It sounds impossible to paint the images of all creatures in the universe on the walls of a hall, so these murals are the second magical thing about the baptismal hall: they do not contain everything
Appearing before your eyes, the murals seen by everyone who comes here are different. Only those who have a better understanding of the nature of life and more respect for the balance of nature will see more content in the murals and can comprehend more.
The more mysteries of the world you see, the more secrets of the world you see. Lilina once clearly said in the sacred book, "Those who witness one thousand eight hundred kinds of lives in the highest baptism place will gain eternal life." This statement may be true, but it is not yet known.
No one can confirm it, because according to Alexstrasza, the red dragon queen who once challenged this trial, there are lines written under the mural of the 1799th creature:
The following content is only visible for replies.
No one can leave writing on the walls of the Holy Land, so no one can yet gain eternal life through this method.
In the center of the hall is the baptistery, which is a shallow "bowl"-shaped altar half a meter above the ground and with a radius of twelve meters. The whole body is carved from green crystal. There are sparkling ripples in it. The center of the "bowl" is
There is a white sculpture several meters high. The image of the sculpture is a beautiful girl with long hair reaching her waist. The girl is holding a pitcher in her hand. The holy water used for baptism pours out continuously from this pitcher.
Sprinkled in the shallow "bowl" below, it is easy to imagine that this sculpture represents the goddess of life: Lilina used her divine power to make this sculpture according to the holy image of Dingdang in the form of a god. I always thought this was the crazy girl
One of the few good things done.
According to religious etiquette, the person being baptized needs to stand on the baptismal platform during the ceremony, which is the bowl-shaped altar filled with holy water. He also needs to be directly under the statue of the goddess and be directly "empowered" by the holy water in the pitcher in the hand of the goddess.
, this process takes three minutes, and the magical thing is that the selected baptized person will not get wet - the priest who presides over the baptism will ask a question to the baptized person every minute, and the latter must answer according to his true inner thoughts.
, you can avoid getting soaked by answering these questions correctly. These questions are not necessarily related to religion. They are completely random. Naturally, it is impossible to prepare the answers in advance. However, the baptized person does not need to be nervous. He can only lie and delay. The answers violate the doctrine.
These three conditions can cause holy water to react, and the problems are by no means too difficult.
The degree of dryness on the body after baptism is the most intuitive indicator of the strength of a believer's faith. Our greatest Pope, Ding Lilina, can stand under the test of holy water for seven days and still be dry - anyway, it was in the latest version of the Bible yesterday.
That's what it said.
A holy place with so many miracles, such a solemn and complicated baptismal ceremony (which is rare among the various religious activities of the Dingdang Sect), is of course not an honor that every believer can accept.
The most high-end baptisms are only carried out for those special people, such as racial leaders or heroes who created epics. Under normal circumstances, believers of the goddess of life in various worlds perform very simplified baptism rituals, such as treating new unlucky people.
The egg was pressed on the chair, and the local priest held up a kettle and swung it at the girl's head - or so I thought.
Fina's baptism ceremony has reached the final step. There are soft and holy songs echoing in the air, penetrating into the minds of every listener from all directions. The delicate girl standing on the baptism platform has a calm expression on her face and is answering.
The priest, that is, the last question asked by Artemis: What do you think about the problem of acne among girls?
Fina thought for a second, and then answered honestly: "I don't know."
A very appropriate answer: truthful, unhesitating, and not contrary to doctrine, and the baptism was completed successfully.
I just read the ending below, but the ending alone was enough to make me stunned.
"I asked, where did your question about the baptismal ceremony come from?"
It took me half a minute to let the organs on my face return to their normal duties, and then I touched a solemn Avalon priest wearing a god's robe next to me. The latter bowed to me and replied succinctly: "Du
mother."
You know, right now I really want to beat up Lilina.
Probably because the embarrassed expression on my face was too obvious, the nameless priest standing next to me quickly made amends for my female pope: "Your Majesty, in fact, His Majesty the Pope has formalized this ceremony. At the beginning, the baptism
There would have been a group of friends and family and an opportunity to call for help while the interviewer was answering questions, but now they have been cancelled..."
Since there are too many flaws, can I not complain about it this time?
At this moment, the baptism ceremony has ended, and Fina is walking down from the altar. Artemis, who is presiding over the ceremony next to her, smiles and helps Fina put on the green one that symbolizes believers."
The little thing was grabbed out of the pocket while holding my finger, and its face seemed to be stained with grease from the meal just now. Fina looked at the little thing for a while, and then nodded mechanically: "
Hello."
The little one licked his fingers and called out in a high-pitched voice: "Fina~~So you also believe in Dingdang?"
This was a historic meeting between the goddess and her new followers, and again, it wasn't easy being surrounded by a bunch of devout believers in Ding Dong.
"Well, this place is so big," the little thing I caught outside my pocket was like a cub that had just left its lair. After saying hello to Fina, it started to look around curiously.
The name of the goddess, this little thing who hangs out with me all day long, was the first time she came back to the baptismal hall. After a while, she discovered the new world, jumped onto my shoulder with a snap, pointed her little finger to the side and shouted, "Ajun
Ah Jun, who is this fool holding the jar!? The water is flowing out!"
Suddenly there was silence all around, and Artemis was about to cry.
I waved my hand in front of Fina, whose expression was a little stiff, and said seriously: "Fina, it's still too late to quit teaching now..."
I can't describe the atmosphere in which I and Fina were sent out respectfully. Just a few minutes ago, the most serious black history in the religious history of the Goddess of Life happened, and in front of at least a dozen bishops and more than a thousand
The presence of divine guards (heroic spirits), hundreds of high-level priests, and the head of an empire. In the days to come, whenever I recall it, the sad faces of today's group of heroic spirits, as if they were mourning for their heirs, can still come to mind.
It is said that since then, the teachings of the Goddess of Life have clearly stipulated the new specifications of the goddess statue. No matter what form the goddess statue is, it is required to put a lollipop in the right hand. Although it seems a bit nonsense, at least this can prevent us from
The goddess admits her mistake again... Dingdang doesn't recognize anything else.
Fina's hut is in the center of the village, next to Artemis's residence. As a Xiling apostle who had just become a full-time official, Fina was supposed to settle in the Shadow City, but she seemed to have no interest in Artemis.
She liked the natural scenery of Valon better, so after completing the soul adjustment, she lived here. This is easy to understand. In the past hundreds of years, the environment in which Fina lived was a steel throne and cold
In the command hall, she had almost forgotten what the vibrant world looked like. Compared to the shadow city that reminded her of the steel jungle, this picturesque world made the former queen feel more comfortable.
"Friend, I learned how to make tea, I hope you like it."
After letting me into the house, Fina got up to prepare tea, while I looked around briefly. Like most buildings in this village, Fina's house is a two-story building, but it only has one floor.
It is a place where you can live. There are prayer rooms and other things related to religious symbols above the second floor. From what you can see, this small house has been kept very neat by Fina, but it is also a bit too tidy. Except
Apart from the necessary furniture, I didn't see any decorations, and it was almost impossible to tell that this was a place for a girl to live. Although I knew that Fina lacked emotions and lacked understanding of some common sense things, she actually did nothing but maintain
It still surprises me that I don’t have any personal preferences other than the necessities of life.
I've also seen the place where Sylvia lives, and it's just as tidy. That slow silver-haired mole may have limited brain power and doesn't usually have any personal hobbies, but at least she occasionally collects some of the latest candy packaging boxes.
Put it on a shelf, or design some cards to send to children, but Fina seems to be more serious than her.
"black tea."
While I was thinking, a cup of steaming tea was placed in front of me, and Fina sat opposite me and began to stare blankly.
"Um, what's wrong?"
I was staring at this expressionless girl all over. I originally wanted to ask her how she was doing, but it turned out that it was hard for me to ask her.
"Lilina said that when talking to friends, it is polite and honest to look directly into each other's eyes."
"...She finally told you a piece of correct common sense," I put my hand on my forehead, "but you still misunderstood... Well, actually, you can do whatever you want. I just want to see what you are doing."
How are you doing, are you getting used to living in this world?"
Fina's mouth showed a very slight arc, as if she was planning to smile: "Thank you for your concern, friend, I am very good here, everyone is very kind, people help each other, it is countless times better than the environment I once lived in.
"
"Um." I scratched my hair, but I was a little stuck. I thought everything was fine before, but it turned out that it was still very difficult to communicate with Fina. This girl who lacks emotions and has no common sense is definitely not a good partner to chat with.
Any topic you discuss with her is bound to fail to resonate. Don't say anything else. I even doubt whether she knows what "satisfaction" and "happiness" are like. Under this premise, I can still confirm
What is Fina's current life situation?
"Friend, your expression is very distressed: the memory bank tells me that this expression means distress. Can I help you?"
"Alas," I sighed, giving up trying to find emotion on Fina's face, and then took out Ding Dong from my pocket, "Little one, I'm a little depressed, can you be cute?"
"Aww!"
Sure enough, he was bitten by the goddess the next second.
"Friend, do you find it difficult to communicate with me?"
While I was busy pulling Dingdong off my hand, Fina actually took the initiative to speak, and I don't know if it was my misunderstanding. It seemed... she had a look of apology on her face?
"That's not what I mean, it's just...how to put it, you came from another world to a completely unfamiliar environment without any relatives around you, so I want to care about you. I am a person who likes to worry about things. Artemis
They have also been cared for by me."
"Well," Fina nodded slowly, and then organized her words, "Friend, I can feel your thoughts, but I'm really sorry. I really don't know what expression to use to express my feelings, or even
What do the feelings in my heart mean? I can only be sure of one thing, that is, I am more... 'happy' than I was on the Iron Throne. This is the first emotion I learned when I left those machines. I hope
This will take your mind off your worries, my friend, I'm really sorry..."
Seeing the slight nervousness and panic in the eyes of the girl in front of me, but unable to show it with her expression, I immediately waved my hand to stop her futile attempt, with a smile on my face: "Okay, maybe I understand.
It’s okay. Pandora was in the same situation as you at the beginning and I trained her... now that she’s been educated, it’s good to know that you’re happy, um, although life is a bit boring.”
I struggled with Fina's room again. This ascetic-like environment is really something that this mechanical girl who has no hobbies and can be very happy just living freely can endure it. I hope that with the continuous contact with the people around her, she will be able to endure it.
She can gradually regain her human heart. At least now, it seems that she can feel nervous because of my troubles. This is a huge progress in restoring her human heart. Artemis has really worked hard.
"There's nothing else going on. The sisters from Mercury Lamp are here to play today. I'm afraid a bunch of dolls have caused a quarrel at home. I'm actually here to hide for some peace and quiet."
After chatting with Fina for a few words, I finally told the truth. It was a high-sounding statement to come here to observe the public sentiment, but in fact, I was more afraid of a bunch of noisy rose girls. The calm and dignified Zhenhong might still be able to be settled.
Wei Na's black tea is stable, Cang Xingshi seems to be an obedient child, but Cui Xingshi, the guy who always talks all the time, is a super troublemaker, and there are also baby-headed young berries and actions.
Canary... God, have mercy on me. There are already enough children in the family. Now is it time for the Empire Royal District to become a large kindergarten class?
"Really? Lilina told me that lolita are the most powerful creatures in the world because they are both female and underage. It seems to be true."
"How much similar common sense has she instilled in you?" I muttered sadly, "Well, I don't dare to go back until my sister is done with the town. Let's talk about the carnival. What should I say to you?
As a former queen, you will also appear when the Pan-Galaxy Civilization Community participates in the carnival..."
