With such a large number of people, the arrangement of security, security, things, and residences becomes more bloated and larger. From a week ago, no one else was allowed to enter the city of Saint Sal unless they had special status and permission.
A large number of believers were stopped outside the city and were unwilling to disperse. They were praying in the direction of Saint-Sal. There were tents set up in many places along the way, and people outside the city could be seen gathering in large groups. In order to get closer to God and feel the glory of God.
It has to be said that the urban planning and design done by the architect Farragut took into account all aspects of the problem. Even if it accommodated so many tourists and pedestrians, it did not collapse.
Within the city, there were crowds of people everywhere, bards sang the legends of gods, wandering musicians played brisk songs, and all the shops in the huge city of Saar began to withdraw from free activities and programs, as if it was a carnival of the century. , in the square, under the statues, beside the stone streets, or in the street alleys, you can see various programs and people gathering together to drink and have fun.

Here they will meet with the other twelve saints, as well as those who serve the gods and preside over ceremonies. Together, the saints welcome the arrival of the gods.
Flowers were sprinkled on the ground, bells were ringing softly, and in the temple, under the guard of priests, the Pope and the twelve selected saints arrived, followed by many others. The kings, grand dukes, and noble groups who watched the ceremony, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they were all believers of the Church of Light in name.
Everyone walked through the stairs and corridors of the temple. Angels were carved on the white stone pillars. The temple was tens of meters high, and the high dome depicted the scene of heaven. People who walked in here felt as solemn as entering the temple of the gods. feel.
Walking in the huge temple, it is as if a villain has entered the kingdom of giants. Suddenly, he feels that he is extremely small. As he enters the hall, he approaches the statue of the god. The tall and solemn statue looks at him below. , people can’t help but be in awe.
As each person stood in his position, the Pope stepped forward and saw the saint wearing a mask standing under the statue of the god. Most of the people present were the first ones since the saint received divine revelation. Seeing her for the first time, the target of everyone's attention was the mask that the saint wore on her face, the legendary artifact - the Face of Pharos. Many people present couldn't help but let out a soft cry.
The fluorescent mask seemed to shed a layer of gauze over the saint's body. As the saint's gaze swept over, many clergymen felt their legs go weak and fell to their knees involuntarily. After Kelly accepted the mask, as the deified cells of the inland fish in her body gradually assimilated into the cells of the land fish, she also completely refined and controlled the mask. The power it could emit was definitely more than three. It's time to get the Pharos mask just a few months ago.
And when the saint saw Rooney, her glance that had been passing by suddenly turned back and stopped on Rooney. She let out a light sigh. Rooney immediately lowered his head. This legendary saint was really affected by this. She is a descendant of the gods who has been inherited by the gods, and she still carries the artifacts given by the gods. She just got some thin Poseidon blood through luck. A hundred of her tied together will definitely not be her opponent.

If he dares to make any move or be disrespectful to Her Highness the Saint, even as his king, the Church of Light will not have any scruples. Feeling the gaze of the Saint, Rooney felt in his heart Panicking, for fear that the saint would see something, Kelly was also confused and felt that she could not hear this person's voice. However, the most important thing at the moment was the baptism ceremony, and nothing could go wrong. Although Kelly was a little skeptical, she could not He immediately withdrew his gaze.
As the saint took the throne, she stood at the front with the pope. Although the twelve pre-selected saints followed them, they knelt at the foot of the statue, with many clergymen far away behind. He and the members of the nobility also knelt down on the ground, crossed their hands in a praying posture, closed their eyes and began to pray to the gods. Even people who were not very religious at first did not dare to have any blasphemous thoughts in their heads in this place at this moment.
Inside the temple, as flowers fell, the choirs and clergy orchestras waiting on both sides of the temple began to perform. Various musical instruments and strings were paired together, as if a grand symphony concert had begun. The soothing music was solemn. The holy rhythm takes people's thoughts to heaven.
Accompanied by the performance of the church clergy orchestra, the pure virgin sang hymns, praising and praising the gods. The holy voice had a melodious and melodious flavor, as if it could float all the way to the kingdom of God in the sky. The girl's pure and holy voice The sound of singing makes people feel as if it can penetrate into the heart and wash away the soul.

Just as Kelly requested, the twelve saint preliminaries present were all He is an extremely devout believer. Otherwise, when he accepts the inheritance of divine magic, his will may not be consistent, and he will directly suffer collapse and backlash. Only those who can accept the will of the gods wholeheartedly and believe in the gods can become saints.

They are responsible for assisting the Pope in managing the affairs of the entire Church of Light. These twelve people are the members of the Cardinals. , the selection of the pope position is also carried out by selection and voting among the twelve of them, which can be said to be the highest level of the entire Church of Light.
The music has never stopped. When night falls, lights and lights immediately light up outside the temple. The lights inside are bright and stretch into the distance. The orchestras and choirs that perform have also changed several times, bringing and dedicating different music to the gods. At this moment, the crowd gathered outside the temple was several times larger than the previous few days. People from the entire city gathered towards the Temple of Light and prayed spontaneously.
As time went by, when the clock struck twelve o'clock at midnight, it entered the first day of the new year in the eleventh year of the Holy Calendar. As the bells buzzed and vibrated, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in the sky. , the dark clouds above the clouds dispersed instantly, and the light shone vertically from the sky, projecting on everyone on the ground like holy light.
The warm light dispelled the chill of the night. When the first ray of light shone down, someone noticed this situation. Immediately, someone raised their head and looked towards the sky. They immediately saw a red sun in the sky, dispersing the darkness and darkness. The moon gradually illuminates the whole world.
