After Ringer said those words, the atmosphere in the entire spacious main hall suddenly fell into freezing point. No one spoke, but some people quietly observed the expression of old Pancras, perhaps wanting to see from his ugly but peaceful face.
There was a trace of sadness or anger; others were quietly observing Ringer's expression, as if trying to get an answer: What kind of thoughts drove this young man to voluntarily admit that his hands were stained with blood, and that the object was still
A devout believer in animism.
At this moment, in the Evangelical Cathedral, in front of the statue of Saint Tumi, he admitted this matter with his own words. Was he begging for forgiveness, or was he just stating the facts?
Thousands of cruel ravines were deeply squeezed out of Old Man Pancras's cheeks, as rough as tree bark. His lips opened and closed up and down, as if he wanted to say something, but there was someone who muttered earlier than him.
He said: "Why are you so cool? You didn't do it alone."
This sentence immediately attracted everyone's attention. Facing their gazes, Alice showed no fear, put her hands on her hips, and said confidently: "That's how it is. Killing the Earth Mother Spirit God-Titan isn't it."
We all contribute to the credit of Ling Ge alone! So Ling Ge only cares about looking cool and doesn’t take us companions seriously at all!”
Play...handsome?
Is this a matter of being cool?
"Sister Alice!" Seeing Bemin, the youngest of the three photon elf sisters, looking increasingly unkind, Medien tugged at the golden-haired maid's sleeve anxiously, almost crying: "Don't just join in the fun.
Come on! This, this is not something to joke about!"
"Are you kidding? I'm not kidding. How can Ringer get all the credit for doing this kind of thing of eliminating harm for the people?" Alice didn't care about so many things. She maintained her usual carefree persona and said what she said directly.
: "That fellow Rochelle, who has a grudge against the religious group, held a ceremony to summon gods in the city of Nimschel, summoning gods to harm innocent people, and even prevented us from visiting the World Expo. Like
Isn’t eliminating such a villain a crime for the people?”
"It's not that you humans have gone too far!" Bemin finally couldn't help but retorted. Her eyes were fixed on Alice. Through the covered bangs, she could see that her eyes were very unique, not like
The bright gold color of the two sisters was instead of a gem-like platinum color: "When you humans kill aliens, exterminate beliefs, and persecute believers, don't you think about endangering innocent people? Lady Rochelle is just
I just repeated those methods to you, what’s too much!?”
"Please pay attention to your wording." Faced with her stern question, Alice pointed out with a serious face: "It's not you humans, but the United Order. We are also human beings, but we all have a grudge against the United Order. If it had been
If Rochelle kills us, the only people who will be happy are the United Orders, right? He can't distinguish between enemies and friends and will only attack indiscriminately. I would say he is not only bad, but also stupid!"
"You, you, you -" Bemin was so angry that she turned red, and pointed at Alice with her trembling little finger. You couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time, but she didn't look as cold and lonely as before, but she was very
It makes people worry that she will suddenly lose control of her mood and pounce on Alice to bite her.
"That's enough, Bemin."
"Stop talking, Alice."
Two voices echoed under the dome of the main hall at the same time. Belphie hugged the little girl who almost lost her mind, while Saint Xalia pulled back the golden-haired maid who was proud of winning the argument with the child, and then the two looked at each other.
At one glance, a tacitly understood "I'm sorry" was spoken at the same time.
"It's not what good children should do to argue in such a sacred place." The proprietress Shesta folded her hands on her cheeks, tilted her head slightly, and suggested to Best with a smile: "Why don't both parties take a step back?
, what Bemin said makes sense, what Alice said also makes sense, how about it?"
How can this be considered as a step back for each of us? After a long time of quarrel, who is the unreasonable one?
Everyone couldn't help but have the same idea in their minds, but Best thought it was a good idea. She sat cross-legged in mid-air in a very unladylike manner, folded her hands on her chest, and nodded calmly: "Well, I think it's good, that's it.
Everyone is happy, everyone is happy!"
The two eldest sisters looked at each other and showed a tacit smile.
With their mediation, the tense atmosphere eased slightly. At this time, Old Pancras slowly spoke: "That kid Rochelle has indeed taken the wrong path. He shouldn't have burned the fire of his hatred to the point where
To an innocent person, that is something that evil spirits and rabid dogs united by the religious sect would do, and he allowed himself to become the most hateful thing; and he should not have pinned his hope of revenge on the god-seeking ceremony.
,The true meaning of animism is to allow human beings to become one with all spirits and tap into their own spirituality, rather than using fanatical beliefs and emotions to shape their ideal gods. Such a form cannot be called a great master who dominates spirituality at all.
They are just evil beasts driven by desire. Unfortunately, those children refused to listen to me. They stubbornly believed that this was the animistic return of all things and the highest end that faith could reach. Therefore, they completely ignored that they had violated
Having fulfilled the original wish of a saint, I am about to step into a river of sin."
The old man shook his head helplessly, and his words were full of disappointment and sadness. However, Ringer noticed that he was talking about "those children" rather than "that child". This shows that among animist believers, there is hope.
I'm afraid Rochelle is not the only one who uses the ritual of praying to gods to fight against the alliance of religious orders?
The young man asked tentatively: "Lord Pancras, can you tell me what the principle of the ritual of inviting gods is? What is the nature of the gods summoned by it? And... is it jointly enforced by religious groups?
What are the origins of religious edicts?”
When the pink-haired little girl heard the last question, her heart beat suddenly. She quickly raised her head, her expression tense and focused. Old Pancras did not immediately answer the young man's question, but he did not refuse to answer either. He just raised his head.
He picked up the pale eyes filled with dirt, glanced at Ringer quietly, and then asked him a question: "Mr. Ringer, you said that kid Rochelle once called you a true believer. This is a very big statement.
A high evaluation means that he thinks you are qualified to travel with him. But I can see that you are not a believer in animism. So can you tell me which great and noble god you believe in?
Where does it exist?”
Ling Ge was stunned for a moment, and just about to answer, Metien suddenly appeared and answered before his brother: "It's the Holy Goddess Sect! Ling Ge and I both believe in the great goddess who created the world and life.
We also have a church called Tianxin Church, which is located on Yunjing Sky Island. Grandpa Pancras, if you want to visit our church, you are welcome at any time. Although it is not as big or as spectacular as the Evangelical Church,
But you won’t be disappointed!”
"Hehehe." Old Man Pancras didn't care about Metien's interruption. He smiled gently and stroked his dull red beard: "If you have the chance, I will definitely visit you. I hope it won't cause you any trouble."
"No, no, no!" Metien shook his head repeatedly and wanted to say something, but his brother took a look at him and immediately retracted his head. He didn't dare to say any more. Linge, on the other hand, explained to the old man in a calm tone.
: "The church on Yunjing Kong Island is just a replica of Tianxin Church. The real Tianxin Church is in Linwell City and has been closed long ago. In fact, there is no difference. Even when Tianxin Church was not closed, the Holy Goddess
There are not many believers in the religion, at least in the Kingdom of Great Brita, maybe there are only my deceased adoptive father, me and Metien."
These words were said as calmly as daily trivial matters, but the three sisters of the Photon Elf all showed surprised expressions. Even Bemin rubbed her red eyes and took another look at him. She never expected this young man's
The situation is actually worse than that of the Fuling Sect in his hometown. Is this the reason why he resisted the alliance of the sect?
Old Pancras slowly stopped stroking his beard: "Is it because of the Religious Decree?"
"kindness."
The old man sighed deeply: "So it's the believers in animism who have implicated you, Mr. Ringer."
Implicated?
Ringer frowned slightly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Pancras, I can't understand, what does it mean to be implicated?"
"Do you want to know the truth of the story, young man?"
"Well, please tell me."
"Then let's sit down and talk first." The old man stretched out his cane and pointed to the bench next to him: "Letting guests stand and talk is not the proper way to treat guests."
