At the beginning of drinking this golden liquid, there was no reaction, but soon people started shouting one after another:
"Ah! I'm ready!"
"Morning Star! My illness can be cured!"
"It tastes great, can I drink more?"
Gallo quickly took a look at these people, and found no additional changes. They were still the same color as ordinary people, and there were no more auras or fluctuations of power.
But there are no signs of poisoning or curse. It seems that these liquids are probably harmless?
As for the exaggerated reactions of those people, it is most likely just a psychological effect, right? It may also be the kind of herd mentality that deceives oneself and others.
However, there are still some people whose situation is different. They have symptoms such as fever, cough, limb weakness, confusion, and gibbering. They look extremely unwell.
The surrounding priests keenly noticed the three people showing abnormal symptoms and quickly went over and dragged them out.
The three of them looked like strong young men, but one of them was missing half of his arm and was dragged and dragged in front of the officiant by the priests.
The officiant opened their eyelids and looked at them, then opened their mouths to check their teeth, and finally pinched the muscles on their arms and legs, and then asked the priest to drag the two able-bodied people away and leave the disabled person behind.
Come down.
Just when everyone in the audience was confused and confused, the officiant announced loudly in an impassioned tone:
"They were chosen by the stars!"
"They are lucky! They are also truly pious! It is because of their piety that they were chosen by the Morning Star!"
"They are about to receive further gifts and gain greater power than mortals!"
"This is an evolution and a sublimation, an important step towards a higher life!"
As the chief priest spoke, he took out a glass test tube from his arms. There was a dark and sticky substance inside, which looked like liquid or smoke, and was surging inside the test tube.
He then opened the mouth of the disabled man and poured the black stuff into his mouth.
Then, he raised the man's half-missing arm high and showed it to everyone.
Under everyone's surprised gaze, a large number of densely packed flesh sprouts gushed out from the severed part of the man's arm, twisting and turning. It looked numb and extremely oozing.
Those granulations have reorganized into muscles and bones, and the disabled arm's broken arm is growing again at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"He only needs to take a nap and he will be able to recover and become a healthy and normal person!"
"This is the gift of the stars, worship! Pray! Offer your piety!"
"As long as you are pious enough, maybe you will be the next lucky person!"
The chief priest said with excitement, and asked the priest next to him to drag the man down, and then asked a few people holding the offering box to step forward.
Everyone in the audience suddenly burst into cheers, many disabled people cast surprised and envious glances, and many people shed tears of joy.
They thought they had witnessed a miracle.
And this miracle of generosity may very well happen to me.
The atmosphere in the square was instantly detonated. Countless people rushed forward with their hands raised, stuffing the only money they had into the offering box, and then knelt on the ground, kissing the floor of the square passionately.
Those offering boxes were quickly filled, and someone immediately brought out new ones.
Only Gallo sat still, thinking seriously about the vision in front of him.
This is indeed the regeneration of a severed limb that is difficult to achieve even with magical healing techniques.
But the disabled person was also dyed black, the same black as those star angels.
To a certain extent, he has become a monster as the price of regenerating his severed limbs...
Gallo couldn't tell whether such a price was appropriate. He only knew that the Morning Star Sect really had something to offer...
I believe that the other two young people will also be drunk with this black liquid and become star angels, right?
You can actually recruit combat power through this method. No wonder there are so many Star Envoys here...
The key is that it can also attract followers and make money by the way.
This speed of recruiting believers and amassing money makes Gallo a little envious.
But he will never follow it, because it violates the doctrine, and this behavior is very close to the temptation and deception of a cult.
Faith should not be measured by money.
He really wanted to change into a red cloud and black robe on the spot, and put on a mosquito-repellent coil mask.
But there are too many people here. The key is that it is still in a wealthy area. Night has just fallen, and there is a lively night market outside...
Gallo was worried that if he took action, he would hurt innocent people and create too much noise.
So he decided to endure it for the time being and go back to discuss it with the old bishop.
Then, he stood up, leaning on his guide stick, and walked slowly toward the exit.
The result was noticed by a priest.
This man's face was filled with fanaticism. He walked over quickly, grabbed him by the collar, and asked sternly:
"Why don't you donate money?"
"Didn't you see the miracle just now? Isn't this miracle enough to shock you? Does it make you worship devoutly?"
Gallo didn't say anything, but pointed at the blind sunglasses on his face.
"Ah...sorry, sorry..."
The priest let go of his hand in embarrassment and got out of the way.
Huh... so dangerous...
Gallo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He almost killed someone... Oh no, I taught him to be a new man...
Fortunately, this product has some limitations and is not forced on others.
So he continued to move slowly toward the exit at the walking speed of a blind man.
But right behind him, the chief priest, who was enjoying the admiration and worship of everyone, heard a priest next to him report an unusual situation.
"Oh? Someone didn't drink the divine liquid?"
He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked around, and finally saw Gallo at a glance.
At this time, everyone else in the venue was kneeling down to worship, but Gallo was the only one planning to leave, which made him look particularly eye-catching.
"A blind man? Or...a spy pretending to be blind?"
The officiant muttered something in a low voice.
"Sir, I will capture him right now!"
A guard captain next to him volunteered.
"No!"
The officiant shook his head repeatedly and continued to explain:
"After all, we haven't taken root in the Innocence City yet. Our foundation is unstable. We must not act recklessly. We must change our habits and not leave a bad impression on the people here..."
The guard captain quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, but he was actually quite unhappy, thinking that the officiant was too conservative and cautious.
They are used to being domineering in other places. Not to mention a suspicious blind man, even the nobles will catch and rob them whenever they want. They bully men and women, and have sex with neighbors. It is as common as drinking water.
.
As a result, when we came to the city of innocence, we had to tie our hands and feet. When we met beautiful women on the street, we could only look at them but not snatch them, which made people quite uncomfortable.
But you have to listen to what the officiant says...
So the captain thought for a while and then suggested:
"Three divine envoys happened to appear tonight. If this person is really a spy and witnessed the entire ceremony, and then tells this situation again..."
The officiant also thought about it and felt that there was some truth in what he said. He nodded and said:
"That's right. Let me confirm the origin of this person first. If he is a spy from the orthodox sect, you should know how to deal with it..."
"But you must remember to keep a low profile. Now is not the time to start a head-on war with them."
As he spoke, the officiant took out a magnifying glass-like thing from his arms, held it in front of his eyes, and looked at Gallo's back.
This is a prop blessed with the magic of insight, which can spy on Garo's status and the fluctuations of his aura.
When the officiant looked at it, he discovered a big surprise:
He saw a pair of huge wings extending from the ground to the sky, covering the sky and the sun, connecting heaven and earth. The entire Sinless City was shrouded by these wings.
These wings are entirely composed of holy white flames, and each feather is like a sharp sword.
But before the officiant could appreciate it for a while, he felt a sharp pain in his head, as if a dozen red-hot steel bars had been inserted into it.
At the same time, a stream of blood arrows spurted out from his eyes, ears, mouth and nose, and the magnifying glass shattered into pieces. His whole body fell to his knees weakly, facing Gallo's back.
After just one glance, he was severely injured and was already dying, with only his last breath left...
As a heretic, what is it like to look directly at an orthodox angel?
The officiant experienced it personally and paid the price with his life.
However, before he died, he still tried to use his last strength to spit out two words with difficulty:
"Quick...don't..."
The guard captain next to him understood what he meant and shouted quickly:
"Hurry and catch the blind man, don't let him go!"
"This guy assassinated the officiant!"
This voice, like poking a hornet's nest, attracted everyone's attention to Gallo.
Gallo, who was already very close to the exit of the square, was shocked. He didn't even know how he was exposed...
The disguise is obviously perfect, right?
But since you've decided not to take action yet, let's run away quickly...
So he put aside his pretense of being blind, opened his legs, and quickly rushed out of the church. He whistled again and called Amiya next to him.
"Amiya, retreat!"
“I will come back!”
But he wanted to leave, but the Morning Star Sect didn't want to let him go.
The guard captain called two followers, rushed out, grabbed a few horses from the roadside, and continued to chase Gallo.
They chased the assassin all the way to the entrance of a park in the neighborhood, and watched the vicious murderer disguised as a blind man escape into the woods of the park and disappear.
"Haha, do you think you can escape?"
The guard captain snorted coldly, jumped off the horse first, and then said to the two followers:
"This assassin's methods are weird. I will go in alone to chase him. You guys stay outside and don't let anyone else get close."
