That night, Bishop Yanile finally received the latest news again.
The content of the message was very brief, but it completely calmed Anvis's worried mood.
‘The ceremony has ended. Including me, a total of seven people have succeeded, and their strength has not changed significantly.
At midnight tonight, seven of us will leave the City of Psalms and secretly head to the Gloria Empire.’
After receiving the exact news, Anvis couldn't help but start thinking about the intentions of the Holy See.
At this point in time, arrange for high-level personnel to secretly go to the Gloria Empire. The most likely target is the two halves of the ruins.
However, considering that they are all successful in the ritual, it may be that they are testing some changes after the ritual in the Empire.
Out of caution, Avis did not wait until zero o'clock to contact Yanile immediately, but postponed it for another magic hour.
After one o'clock at midnight, Avis gently pressed the cover of the Old Secret Book with his right hand and injected spiritual power to activate it.
As his thoughts concentrated, four familiar dark green stars gradually lit up in his mental space.
Sensing the one that exuded Yanile's spiritual aura, Anvis touched it lightly.
As a result, Yanil's recent memory of the ritual was transferred to his consciousness in an instant.
The first thing that catches the eye is a secret room made entirely of pure white stone and decorated only with a few simple gold lines.
The secret room has no doors or windows, and the only light source comes from a crystal on the square pure white stone platform in front of it.
The crystal presents a perfect icosahedron and is placed on a miniature pure gold altar at the top of the stone platform, emitting soft white light.
Although the light only shines on the body, it seems to reflect the appearance of the soul, making people unconsciously want to repent of their past mistakes.
It's like feeling the mercy and mercy of the gods, facing the purest things in the world.
Just staring at the light, deep reverence and emotion will naturally arise in my heart.
Holy, holy, inviolable, inviolable -
Facing this spar, Yanile was dressed in a pure black bishop's robe. He raised his hands in front of his chest, holding the ring-shaped holy symbol of light with his fingers intertwined. He lowered his head slightly and silently chanted the prayers in the holy scripture.
As he chanted silently, the holy light gradually penetrated into his body. The soul seemed to be gradually peeling off dirt and impurities, and was purified and sublimated in this warm light.
It's a pity that no matter how sacred the light is, it can't drive away the darkness in people's hearts.
At the same time as he sensed this memory picture, the body of the old secret scripture suddenly sent a feedback.
A feedback that is as eager as the one I once faced with the faceless gem statue!
"Is that...the power of faith?"
Sensing the feedback from the Old Mysteries with some surprise, Anvis suddenly recalled that Yanile's memory had mentioned that the essence of the Saint's plan was related to the power of faith.
At the same time, the mental picture changed again.
The crystal in front of me had darkened at some point, turning into colorless and transparent like white crystal.
Yanil raised his head, lowered his hands on his chest again, and ended his prayer.
He turned around and walked to the wall, in front of a simple circular holy symbol of light, and gently raised his hand and pressed it on it.
A ray of light flashed, and the surrounding environment suddenly changed, turning into a vast hall decorated with a strong sacred style.
A huge spiral crystal chandelier hangs from the dome depicting magnificent paintings, and thousands of candlelights burn quietly in the golden shrines on the wall, making the indoor environment sacred and lonely.
There are no windows in the room. In Bishop Yanile's memory, this place seems to be an unknown underground church somewhere.
Beside him, there were four figures also wearing pure black bishop robes, standing here quietly.
In front of everyone, there was a simple white altar with ten small oil lamps placed on it.
At this time, seven of the ten lamps had been extinguished. However, among the three lamps that were still on, the burning flame was white-gold, which was very strange.
At this time, one of the three remaining oil lamps suddenly flickered, and the white-gold flame suddenly went out.
Swish——
At the same time, the same bishop figure appeared indoors.
After looking at the number of oil lamps in front of him, he also stood silently waiting.
After a moment, as the last bishop appeared, all ten lights in front of him were extinguished.
Although there were ten lights in total, only seven bishops appeared in this hall.
"The ceremony is over."
A figure of a middle-aged man with brown hair and a serious face, wearing a dark red robe decorated with gold threads, appeared silently in front of the altar.
The moment he saw that face, Anvis immediately recognized his identity—it was none other than [Holy Inquisitor] Jorgson, one of the seven archbishops of the Holy See.
"Unfortunately, not all brothers and sisters can seize this precious opportunity and fully receive God's gift."
Looking around the seven people in the room, Jorgson slowly spoke.
"But I'm happy to see more people come here."
"Perhaps you can feel that your own strength has not been significantly improved. However, there is no need to doubt that God's gift is not such a simple thing."
"Next, we will go to Gloria, where the ruins of the ancient gods fell. The gods' gifts will protect you and completely recover the evil foreign objects inside."
At the end of his speech, Jorgson waved his hand, and a pure white halo of light suddenly lit up beside the seven people.
"Remember, God is watching us in the sky. Everything we do will last forever. Nothing can be added to it, nothing can be taken away from it -"
As a beam of teleportation light flashed, the memory scene dimmed again.
Immersed in the empty mental space, Anvis withdrew the mental power connected to the twisted seed, feeling slightly lost in thought.
This description made him unconsciously think of the figure who had appeared in his memory and was enveloped in the holy white light.
God’s protection...?
.….….
On the evening of the 29th, in the suburbs of Palohia.
The Eternal Gold Club is located on the outskirts of the royal capital Palohia, in a vast private estate.
The architectural style of the manor was designed by the famous architect Morik Pierce. It catered to the classical elven style aesthetics of the Gloria II period, advocating the beauty of natural harmony and absolute low-key luxury.
Its original owner was the Marquis de Draca, one of the founders of the Hengjin Club. It was originally just a private club for him and a few close friends, but it gradually became larger and larger.
Therefore, he generously donated a manor under his name to be used as a gathering place for club members.
Because it is very close to the royal capital and is guarded by high-level private guards, there is sufficient security here. There is no need to worry about accidents that may disturb the interests of distinguished guests.
At this time, a high-end carriage drove into the manor and slowly stopped at the carriage parking spot near the gate.
Dani, dressed in formal attire, opened the car door and jumped out.
