Because it is very normal for a Sequence Five to come into contact with some ancient relics, and if the other party is really related to the Victorian Dynasty, then why come to their Hazel
The bitter cold land has nothing to do with the Victorian Dynasty, and the two are completely different.
-
After briefly handing over the information to Marquis Bill, Mozo came to a Victory Church in the eastern part of Geling City.
The East City District of Geling is a district where rich and common people live together, although it is not as good as the North City District where nobles gather and the Inner City District where only the upper class people live.
But it's busy enough here.
After taking a look at the church in front of him, Mozo confirmed that this should be the cathedral of the entire diocese of Dongcheng District.
That is to say, the highest-ranking clergyman here will be a diocesan bishop in charge of the entire Dongcheng District.
The diocesan bishop is not a very high-ranking rank in the church system, but this is the city of Geling!
The principle of a fourth-rank official serving as the prime minister's doorman is applicable in that world.
In the Hazel region where theocracy outweighs imperial power, it is no wonder that even Marquis Bill, the real power holder, does not dare to act rashly.
However, having said that, judging from the attitude of Marquis Bill, the situation of this diocesan bishop is probably not optimistic.
After shaking his head, Mozo walked straight into the church.
Even in such a dark age, there are still many people praying in the church.
It is better to say that the more chaotic the world is, the more people will seek the protection or comfort of faith...
After looking around, Mozo discovered that the church was not dedicated to the statue of the goddess of victory, but an angel. Mozo remembered that the angel's name was Arwen Elrond. She was the archangel of the goddess of victory and was also known as the Angel of the Evening Star.
The coincidence is just like the elf princess Arwen Dusk in "The Lord of the Rings".
Mozzo also remembered that it was because of this outrageous coincidence that he suddenly decided to name himself Aragon in this dream opera.
But later on, Mozo discovered that Arwen was not an elf, but of pure human descent.
Come to think of it, it's okay if the names and titles are coincidental, but how could their backgrounds also match
Besides, the naming style of the elves in this world is closer to "Warcraft" than "The Lord of the Rings".
After shaking his head to dispel the chaotic thoughts in his mind, Mozo focused his attention on the church in front of him.
A church under a certain deity does not necessarily worship the main god. They may also be churches of an angel or the holy spirit. This is not uncommon or disrespectful; it is the norm.
In the magnificent church, on the preaching platform under the statue of Arwen, a white-haired old bishop was offering his blessings to every believer who came to pray and greet.
Some parents who come with their children will also receive an additional small cup of wine and bread, which represents the Holy Blood and Holy Communion.
In the extraordinary world, the holy blood and the Eucharist are truly blessed and blessed.
This should be very common in other areas, but in Hazel, Mozo always feels that it is very rare.
After all, according to what he had seen before, Mozo felt that it was really "incongruous" for the other party to bless him without asking for money.
Thinking of this, Mozo couldn't help but rub his eyes. He was clearly doing his job, but he seemed so out of place.
This whole bitter cold place is really outrageous.
As time goes by, the number of believers in the church is decreasing, because the time for the church to close is approaching.
But Mozo remained sitting in his original position, neither coming up to pray nor making any intention of leaving.
In response, no clergyman came up to check, as if Mozo had been forgotten by the entire church.
Until the old bishop finished blessing the last couple of parents and watched them leave the church.
He then carefully closed the church scripture in front of him, wiped it carefully to make sure there were no omissions, and then slowly walked to Mozo's side and sat down.
As if this was the last time he would do this.
The old bishop sat down and looked up at the statue of Arwen that seemed to be looking down at the world and said:
"You are the Marquis of Beale's man, right?"
Mozo nodded and said:
"Yes, Your Excellency the District Bishop."
"No need to say anything respectful, I'm just an old man with a bit of luck."
"And even that little bit of luck seems to have run out!"
After saying this, the old bishop couldn't help laughing.
The smile was very lonely and helpless.
320 Sacrifice
After Mozo glanced at the old bishop, he set his sights on the statue of Arwen like the old bishop.
Mozo was not familiar with Arwen, he had only heard of Arwen's name.
However, Arwen here is also a stunning beauty, just like Princess Arwen in "The Lord of the Rings", or in other words, Mozo has rarely seen an ugly one in the high sequence.
Even if there are, they are usually suffering from some kind of curse or something similar. Once the curse is lifted, they will return to their original beauty. It has to be said that this world is quite "fairy tale" in this respect.
Of course, Mozo prefers that this is what the original did.
After taking his eyes off the statue of Arwen, Mozo said to the old bishop:
"Even if you ignore your identity, based on what I have seen along the way, you are still worthy of respect. After all, you are very different from the people here."
This sentence made the old bishop rub his eyes and look at Mozo with a little surprise.
"I can sense that you are different from the people who came here before. Are you really Marquis Bill's man?"
Mozo was also a little surprised and asked:
"Why do you say that?"
"Why do you say that? You may not realize it, but you are really different from those people. Although those people will maintain their so-called demeanor when facing me, what they reveal in their bones is not education. Instead, it is flattery or disgust."
"But you are different. Your eyes tell me that's what you think in your heart. You are truly a gentleman."
After saying this, the old bishop couldn't help but say:
"There aren't many people like you in this place."
After sighing, the old bishop shook his head and said:
"So why would someone like you want to work under Marquis Bill?"
"I can see that you and those people should not be on the same side."
Mozo looked at the old bishop in surprise and said:
"You seem quite sure of your idea, but aren't you afraid that you might be wrong?"
As far as Mozo knows, this bishop is a very senior figure among the rebels. Is it really okay for a senior figure like you to be so straightforward
Although there is not much substantive content, the more you say so, the more reason Marquis Bill has to be suspicious and even take direct action!
Hearing this, the old bishop turned slightly in his seat and looked at Mozo and said:
"I wouldn't normally be like this, but today is different."
Mozo raised his eyebrows slightly, then put his hands on the chair and started writing.
As the sequence improves, Mozo's writing has been greatly enhanced. For example, before, when he touched a chair, he could only read the chair's "past".
But now Mozo can directly browse the "past" of this church through this chair placed inside the church!
After a moment, Mozo said in surprise:
"You have set up a very scary ritual in the church."
The old bishop smiled and nodded:
"Since you began to suspect me, I have been slowly setting up this spell in the basement. Because I am sure that no matter how hard my companions and I try, we can only delay the time for you to discover it."
"After all, the longer we delay, the more likely you will just start the search without any care. In this way, it will be difficult for us to ensure that there will be no mistakes."
The identity of the old bishop did make Marquis Bill very cautious, but this concern was destined to become less and less with the passage of time.
When a certain critical point was reached, the old bishop knew that Marquis Bill would take action regardless of whether he had found anything useful.
These people don't respect the Basic Law.
After the old bishop finished speaking, he looked at Mozo very seriously and said:
"I had already asked the rest of the people to leave this church, and the nearby houses were also secretly replaced by my companions long ago and moved to other places to live."
"You can say that we are the only two people in this church and the surrounding buildings now."
"Before I take action, I want to confirm what kind of person you are. Is there something else going on, or am I really mistaken?"
Mozo took back his hand from the chair and said:
"Are you planning to sacrifice yourself and this church to buy more lives for your companions? And before that, do you want to confirm whether I, the minion of Marquis Bill, am innocent?"
Mozo roughly deduced the situation from the information at hand, and after stating his speculation, he couldn't help but add:
"I respect your character, but don't you think your actions are too soft-hearted?"
"And you should know that I am a mid-sequence transcendent. You said these words directly to me. Aren't you really worried that I will suddenly attack you?"
As he spoke, Mozo's expression gradually became serious and he said:
"The ritual you prepared is irreversible? Not only will it be activated at any time according to your will, but it will also explode directly due to your death?"
"You should also know that Marquis Bill and his men have not found any definite evidence to accuse you. You should have more time to do other things, but you are looking at me, Marquis Bill. No, that's not right."
"You took action only after seeing me, the Marquis of Bill. Were you prepared to sacrifice yourself today? And your quick and absurd actions show that you are not trying to save your companions. You are trying to buy time for them?"
"If I'm not mistaken, your companions are planning to do something big in the next few days? And your sacrifice is to buy them time and also to attract the attention of Ge Ling City?"
The old bishop became more and more surprised by what Mozo said.
Is their plan so obvious
Looking at the old bishop who had fallen into silence, Mozo rubbed his eyes helplessly and said:
"Although you didn't say anything, your behavior clearly explained everything."
Mozo's words seemed to have crushed the old bishop's thoughts. After the old bishop sighed deeply.
Not only did the door of the church suddenly close, but the surrounding walls and doors were instantly covered with countless flowing inscriptions.
"I don't want to hurt you because you don't give me the impression of being a vicious person. I also want to use you to make Marquis Bill and others believe that my death was only to cut off their clues."
"But you are too smart, and your identity still worries me so much. So I can't let you leave."
After he finished speaking, the old bishop bowed to Mozo with great apology and said:
"I may have killed you by mistake, but if you are truly a kind and upright person, I believe we will definitely meet again in the ideal country promised by God!"
321 I am Aragorn Isildur
The ideal country promised by God? When he was Aragorn, Michelle and many of his companions had told him more than once about the ideal country that the Faith of Victory described for its believers.
All the scriptures of the Victory Church preach that it is a heaven that only kind and upright people can go to.
It is said that it is a country above the clouds and it is spring all year round. Above the clouds, everyone can always see the warm sun hanging high in the sky. This is the blessing that every citizen of a bitter and cold land craves for.
It is said that above the clouds there is not only eternal warmth, but also rivers flowing with nectar and clouds that can be transformed into any kind of delicacy. Everything is available to everyone who visits the ideal country.
There, there is no more war, oppression, hunger, cold and all the darkness that belongs to the world.
Everything is so beautiful and desirable!
However, Mozo knew that the foundation for the establishment of the ideal country could not exist from the very beginning.
Because the ideal country is the paradise after death promised by the goddess to her believers.
However, although the creatures of this world do transform into spirits after death, each soul will only go to an unknown resting place known only to the Origin.
The resting place originally created for the spirits of all living things might be an ideal paradise, but this is definitely not something that a Sequence Zero can achieve.
As for the holy spirits in the major divine kingdoms, it can only be said that they were not dead in the true sense, but simply changed their way of existence.
Unless the goddess transforms all the souls of the dead into evil spirits. But not to mention that evil spirits can only be killed by evil spirits, how can we be happy if we all become evil spirits
As for the other rare spirits except evil spirits, although their situations are much better than those of evil spirits, they are still not able to achieve happiness.
