Enzo and the other three were the only ones left in the carriage.
Originally, Nicole and her mother were planning to leave and leave the carriage to Enzo alone. However, Enzo planned to learn more about their beliefs, so he took the initiative to let them stay.
Neither of them objected.
"I wonder, Ms. Elena, what are your plans to go to the Cold Plains?" Enzo asked nonchalantly.
As a mother, Elena has taken off her disguise.
This was a beautiful woman who looked to be about thirty years old. She exuded an intoxicating temperament. Enzo was completely immune to this, but he deduced in his heart that this temperament should be related to the god she believed in.
"Could it be her?" A thought flashed in Enzo's mind.
Although he is not completely sure yet, he has already inferred that Elena is a god he has seen before.
Next to her, Nicole was sitting there obediently.
"I'll tell you the truth, Your Excellency Enzo." Elena said with a gentle tone, "Little Nicole and I were originally nobles of the Red Castle Kingdom. Because we were inspired by the gods, we became loyal believers of the great goddess."
"This trip to the Cold Plains is also to spread faith for my Lord."
As she spoke, a trace of solemnity appeared on Elena's face.
"The Kingdom of Kaiyuan has fallen into civil strife. A meaningless war will only bring death and sacrifice. According to my Lord's prophecy, the world is about to undergo a change. Only those who believe in My Lord can survive this catastrophe."
"That's it." Enzo nodded slightly, but felt helpless in his heart.
The way these gods spread their faith is really the same. They first weave a huge lie, make people panic in the form of doomsday prophecies, and then appear in the form of a savior.
If you use some extraordinary means casually, it will be regarded as a miracle by people.
In the Northern Continent, such inferior methods may not be able to confuse too many people, because in a society ruled by wizards, extraordinary power is everywhere, but in an abandoned land where information is scarce, this method is very effective.
Enzo wanted to continue asking.
At this time, the carriage stopped again, and a trace of nervousness appeared on Nicole's face, but the voice of the travel group owner came from outside.
"It's getting dark, get ready to set up camp."
Afterwards, the car door was also opened, and the tour group boss said respectfully: "Sir Enzo, if you don't mind, please join us for dinner."
Enzo nodded.
The three of them stepped out of the carriage together. An iron pot had been set up next to the fire, and broth was being boiled in it. The alluring aroma hit their faces.
The hotel owner diligently prepared food for Enzo.
Compared to others, Enzo's food was obviously more hearty. In addition to broth, there was also charcoal-grilled rabbit meat and soft wheat bread.
However, Enzo doesn't have many requirements for food.
The All-Soul Wizard no longer needs to eat. He can absorb the energy from the surrounding world through meditation to replenish himself. However, Enzo still maintains the habit of eating three meals a day. After a simple dinner, he is ready to return to the carriage.
At this time, fine white snowflakes were floating in the sky.
The seasons in the Abandoned Land are not much different from those in the northern continent. Winter has already arrived, and this is not the first snow this year. The cold weather has caused most animals in the forest to begin hibernation.
Enzo looked around and suddenly noticed that Elena and her daughter were missing.
"Ms. Elena and Miss Nicole seem to have gone to the creek over there." The owner of the tour group saw Enzo's expression and chuckled, "This is the trouble with women, they have too high requirements for hygiene."
Enzo nodded slightly.
It seemed that Elena and her daughter were planning to clean their bodies. After all, they had just experienced a battle during the day, and their bodies were inevitably stained with blood.
At this moment, Enzo suddenly felt something in his heart.
In an area not far away, he felt a divine aura, and when he looked around, it seemed that the location of Elena's mother and daughter was exactly where they were.
"Prayer? Or sacrifice?"
Enzo's eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of interest on his face. Elena and her daughter left the brigade, and it seemed that they were not simply cleaning their bodies.
He thought for a moment and then walked over there.
Although Enzo had already made some inferences about the gods that Elena and her daughter believed in, but now that the other party was praying, he could just confirm it.
Not long after, Enzo left the brigade.
We were heading towards a small forest, and there was a faint sound of water flowing. Although it was winter, the river was not completely frozen.
Bang bang bang!
The sound of a whip waving came from the woods. Enzo looked forward and saw such a scene.
Under the night, the bright moon is in the sky.
Next to a stream several meters wide, the petite Nicole was naked, kneeling on the ground like a slave girl, showing the most humble posture. The moonlight shone on her body, exuding an alluring white luster.
Next to Nicole is her mother Elena.
The woman who was gentle during the day had a serious face at this moment, waving a long whip in her hand and hitting Nicole's back. Every blow seemed to use a lot of strength. The severe pain made Nicole's face pale, but there was a look in her eyes.
But it has a strange luster.
"All pain in the world is a gift from the goddess!"
"Great weeping goddess, please accept the humble service of believers and bear witness to the loyalty of our faith with pain!"
Elena muttered words and slapped Nicole's naked back hard.
"It's indeed her!"
Enzo's eyes flashed and he saw the scene in front of him. He completely verified his previous inference. The god that Elena and her daughter served was the weeping goddess in the lost continent.
They are also old gods from ancient times. Compared to the Goddess of Night, the Weeping Goddess is pitifully weak. According to Enzo's calculation method, I am afraid that the three Weeping Goddesses combined are not as powerful as the Night Goddess.
Such an ancient god can almost be called the shame of a god.
The power held by the Weeping Goddess is even more bizarre. Her believers have endured pain as a way of sacrifice, which seems a bit abnormal to normal people.
"It's true that anyone who plays can become a god."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Enzo complained in his heart that the wizarding world is too vast, so too many gods were born in ancient times.
At the same time, the sacrifices by the stream have also ended.
As Elena cracked the whip fiercely, Nicole let out a high-pitched scream, with a hint of joy mixed in the pain, and then fell to the ground extremely weak, as if she had lost all her strength.
Elena's face was still serious, and she stepped on Nicole's head.
The teachings of the Weeping Goddess are not only strange, but there is also a strict hierarchy among the believers. Everything of the lower-ranking people belongs to the higher-ranking ones, including their bodies. They seem to be the mother and daughter of Weeping Goddess followers. Nicole is obviously a lower-ranking person.
After a long while, this ridiculous sacrifice ended.
Enzo originally planned to turn around and leave, but at this moment, he suddenly felt something, looked at the sky, hesitated and walked out.
Beside the stream, the mother and daughter were startled when they heard the noise.
Nicole grabbed her clothes in a panic, while Elena acted quite calmly, letting Enzo see her naked body.
"Did Sir Enzo feel the call of the goddess?"
Elena was naked, with a trace of solemnity on her face, and said: "All the suffering in the world is tempered by the goddess for the world, including today's gangsters. It is because they have no faith that they embark on a path of no return.
"
Enzo's face was pale, and he could no longer complain in his heart.
Mortals who have been brainwashed by the teachings of gods have almost become extremely paranoid. Even wizards who pursue the truth, some will choose to abandon the truth and become believers because of the power of gods.
As she said that, Elena suddenly raised her foot and stepped on Nicole's head.
"I believe that Your Excellency Enzo has felt the call of the goddess, so why not join us and fall into the arms of the great crying goddess!"
"Only by feeling pain can the soul be sublimated!"
There was a trace of fanaticism in Elena's tone, and she said seductively: "According to the teachings of the great crying goddess, only by accepting the whipping of a strong man can you feel the pain better. Dedicating everything to the superior is also the way to sublimate the soul."
With that said, Elena kicked Nicole's butt.
The naked girl with snow-white skin had a hint of shyness on her face, but then she firmly grabbed the whip, stood up, walked to Enzo's feet and knelt down.
"Please Enzo, please whip me!" Nicole's eyes were firm.
In the creed of the Church of the Weeping Goddess, the way to attract the strong to join is often for the weak to suffer. After knowing the identity of the great knight Enzo, Elena had the idea of ​​recruiting Enzo to join the church during the day.
At the same time, according to the creed of the church, every lower-level believer thinks that the upper-level believer dedicates everything as an honor. The great crying goddess watches everything, and only in this way can he receive her blessings.
Looking at Nicole kneeling on the ground, Enzo suddenly felt in a trance.
But in just an instant, he regained his composure, his eyes flashed with thought, and he suddenly understood everything that had just happened.
Obviously, the Weeping Goddess is watching everything happening here.
Perhaps this is also the Weeping Lady's way of gathering followers for herself. Nicole's offering of the whip is like a ritual. If Enzo chooses to pick up the whip and give him a whip, he will also establish a faith relationship with the Weeping Lady invisibly.
Once this relationship is established, it means Enzo becomes a believer.
While receiving the blessings from the Weeping Goddess, you will also be controlled by the other party, thereby losing your freedom and gradually becoming more and more loyal.
Now Enzo is disguised as a great knight.
Obviously, the Weeping Goddess who was watching everything did not see through this disguise. She only thought that Enzo was an ordinary knight, so she used her authority to recruit Enzo as her disciple.
In place, thoughts flickered in Enzo's mind.
Weak gods like the Weeping Goddess are not taken seriously by him at all. They are not even qualified to pose a threat to Enzo, but Enzo needs to establish contact with the Night Goddess through the Weeping Goddess.
"Okay, I'll just play with you." Enzo chuckled in his heart.
Then, he pretended to be infected by the gods, picked up the whip in Nicole's hand, and whipped the girl's naked body hard. Nicole screamed immediately, and a special faith contract was established at this moment.
.
A faint trace of strength disappeared from Enzo's body.
A connection has also been established with the Weeping Goddess. The other party left a mark in Enzo's body, which represents the identity of Enzo's believer. However, this identity has no binding effect on the All Souls Wizard.
Enzo can sever this relationship at any time if he wants.
You can even use this mark as a medium to find the location of the Weeping Goddess, or impose a curse to make the other party pay a heavy price.
After the believer's contract was completed, Elena's face showed a hint of joy.
Nicole bit her lip gently, with a hint of shyness on the girl's face, and slowly spread her legs under the bright moonlight.
This is also part of the ceremony.
In the teachings of the Weeping Goddess, weak believers must dedicate themselves to powerful believers in order to receive the blessings of the goddess. Between male and female believers, this dedication is often mixed with pure desire.
Enzo couldn't help but have a strange look on his face.
In ancient times, the Church of the Weeping Goddess also emerged for a period of time. Driven by the most primitive desires of mankind, the church even developed rapidly, and most people took the initiative to join the Church of the Weeping Goddess.
If the Weeping Goddess was not too weak and the church was suppressed by a powerful god, perhaps the Weeping Church could really develop.
After all, for mortals, desires are difficult to suppress.
Not far away, Elena urged her. Her daughter Nicole was a believer she brought into the church with her own hands, but she had never made a donation to Elena.
This is mainly because, in the creed of the Church of the Weeping Goddess, the stronger the object of the first devotion of the lower believer, the more generous the blessings from the goddess will be. Elena herself is not a strong person, so she is not qualified to enjoy Nicole's dedication.
But Enzo, as a great knight, is different.
This is also the reason why Elena wants to win over Enzo. If the other party can accept Nicole's first service, then the crying goddess who watches everything will definitely give Nicole a generous reward.
After hearing Elena's urging, Enzo no longer hesitated.
The Weeping Goddess was watching everything from nowhere. Enzo was not willing to show his original desires in front of him, so with a thought, the power from the All Souls Wizard was released.
In an instant, the surroundings fell into an illusion.
There was a dull look on the faces of Nicole and Elena. The two people who were trapped in the illusion lost their surrounding perception. Enzo raised his hand and snapped his fingers. The illusion that was almost exactly the same as the real world could even deceive the gods.
At the same time, the border of the abandoned land.
On an isolated island in the sea, the Weeping Goddess is sitting next to a mirror, watching everything that happens inside with great interest. As a god with a special hobby, what she is most willing to do is to spy on the privacy of believers.
However, there was a sudden flicker in the mirror.
In just an instant, she returned to her original state, but the Weeping Goddess frowned slightly, but did not pursue it too closely, and continued to watch the picture in the mirror, but she did not know that everything had been disguised by the illusion.
