The lively entrance hall of the new church attracted many people to come and watch, making Gallo and the old bishop feel a bit like the center of attention when they appeared.
The two of them put on simple, simple, but neat and beautiful robes with long hems and cuffs. They were no longer the shabby and almost ascetic attire of before. They really looked like that.
This new suit of clothes was specially designed and made by Gallo through the introduction of the shopkeeper, and he found a famous tailor in the city. Originally, the shopkeeper planned to ask the caveman blacksmith to make a beautiful crown, scepter, etc., but it was added
Luo declined.
Because that would not be in line with the overall simple and rustic style of the Miya sect, and Gallo doesn't like scepters. It's very troublesome to hold. If you replace it with a bolas and a flail, you can consider it.
In this way, the two began to organize the guests to visit and briefly introduced the teachings to them.
Although the guests were a little shocked by the statue of the goddess with seriously insufficient resolution, they still generously poured various coins into the offering box.
This is the advantage brought by the location. People who come to visit are not short of money. Even if they are just watching the fun, they will lose at least one silver coin.
Then, under the witness of everyone, Gallo performed a simple baptism for Bart's shopkeeper and his wife and children, officially accepting them as believers.
At the end of the ceremony, Gallo did not forget to give a special reminder:
"If you encounter any difficulties, troubles, or distress in the future, just come and talk to the goddess. She will listen to the prayers of every devotee."
This sounds like a very common polite thing to say, so of course the shopkeeper and his family didn't think much about it and nodded in agreement.
After the ceremony, the old bishop stood up again and cast a group magic on the guests watching the ceremony: the Prayer of Peace.
This is a healing magic, and its effect is a simple group psychological comfort, which can temporarily eliminate people's anxiety, displeasure and other negative emotions.
Regarding this step, when discussing with the old bishop last night, Gallo originally planned to do it himself.
He planned to give his guests some high-level patronage group magical spells such as Brave Prayer and Fearless Ode to demonstrate the sect's magical level and attract more believers.
In the end, it was the old bishop's persuasion and the city lord's laws that made him give up the idea.
Logically speaking, if this kind of magic is really performed, Lieutenant Undini, who hasn't had time to come over to visit, might rush over and arrest Gallo...
This kind of powerful magic that should be used on the battlefield cannot be used indiscriminately without permission. It is too easy to incite the people and create riots.
Gallo could only express regret for this. After mastering these magical skills, he never found an opportunity or occasion to use them. He thought he could try them this time...
In this way, the whole viewing process ended smoothly, and the guests began to leave without any problems.
But unfortunately, few people choose to become religious...
This is the embarrassment of small sects. No matter how hard they try, they have countless disadvantages compared to large sects. What's more, the teachings of Miya sect are too mild and plain. Not everyone can accept such peaceful teachings.
So after Old John and the others left, the new church became deserted again. Only the old bishop and Gallo were left in the whole church, as well as a few kittens. This made Gallo feel in a trance, thinking that he was still in the old church.
inside.
But he didn't feel regretful or frustrated, because today he had taken a new step. The church had more guests and three new believers. This was a good start and made him believe that there would be more and more success in the future.
The better!
In particular, the amount of money in the offering box has set a record, which is Gallo's most important source of confidence.
In just one morning, they received more than 30 gold offerings, the bulk of which came from the generous Sir Donald, the shopkeeper, the blacksmith, and the generous neighbors.
It's so profitable to run a church, so it's no wonder those big sects are so rich.
"But, why didn't you come here today?"
Gallo muttered to himself with a hint of regret. The absence of this generous regular guest made him feel that something was missing...
"She's a very busy person. Maybe she'll be here in a few days? And she's not alone."
The old bishop comforted him.
What he said was half right. When Miseran appeared in front of Gallo again, he was really not alone.
But she came that evening.
Today, Miseran is still dressed in the white sect with white stockings. She is still holding the notebook that she treated as a treasure in her arms. Next to her is a man wearing the same sect, but wearing an extra coat.
A middle-aged man wearing a red waistcoat.
As soon as she saw Gallo, Miseran's eyes lit up, and she wanted to pounce on him, but she immediately realized the presence of the man next to her, so she had to stop and huddle behind him, like an obedient kitten.
The middle-aged man walked towards Gallo and the old bishop, nodded with a smile, drew an inverted eight on his chest with his right hand, and said loudly:
"Nice to meet you, my name is Yeck."
In the City of Innocence, the only person named Yeck who is qualified to wear the red vest representing a cardinal is the cardinal of the Divine Light Sect.
Gallo and the old bishop couldn't help but feel a little nervous, because this was the first time they faced such a big shot.
As a result, the old bishop responded faster and quickly replied:
"Nice to meet you, Bishop Yeck, you are younger and more low-key than I thought."
It is said that he is the most promising person within the Shenguang Sect to succeed the archbishop. He should have the pomp and style of a big star, but the two of them came in an ordinary-looking carriage without even an entourage.
.
This scene is much more low-key than Miseran's own travels. It's hard to imagine that such a character can be so restrained?
"May I extend my most sincere greetings to the goddess Mia?"
Bishop Yeck asked again.
"Of course, please!"
The old bishop said, and quickly led the two people inside.
The moment Bishop Yeck stepped into the church, the serious and solemn expression on his face suddenly changed slightly, as if he sensed something...
The realm of God?
Bishop Yeck couldn't help but think to himself.
Although it is very weak, it is the real realm of God. It is very similar to the atmosphere felt in the headquarters of Shenguang Sect and the holy city of Canning Cathedral.
Such an inaudible aura cannot be felt at all without a certain level of strength and rank.
It turns out that boy didn't lie to Alan, the true god is really worshiped here...
But why have I never heard of a goddess named Mia?
