Three days later, Roland waited outside the Holy Land of Light for Shuke to pick him up.
As the holy city of the Guangming Cult, all the buildings in the Guangming Sanctuary are built with large, white smooth rocks, including the city walls.
The city walls of King Holaivan City are already very tall and wide, but compared with the walls of the Holy Land of Light, they are far behind.
Standing under the city wall, the huge white rocks reflect the sun's rays. Looking up, it seems that the hills going up and down are blocking my eyes. This feeling is quite oppressive.
But Roland still had a feeling that he wanted to fly in with a whoosh.
After all, mages are people who don't take the usual path.
Fortunately, he restrained his suicide behavior.
The holy land of the sect is not the royal city.
The royal family also pays attention to personal interests. Religious fanatics will not reason with you. If they feel that you have insulted the sect, they will probably fight to death.
Shuke came out to pick up Roland in casual clothes, and the two joked with each other for a while.
Then Roland asked: "Why do you always come back to the Holy Land? I thought you would ride Margaret around and travel around every day."
"It's not that I don't want to run around." Shuke said helplessly: "It's that the sanctuary doesn't want the paladin to run around. If nothing happens, they want me to stay in the sanctuary every day."
While walking side by side with Shuke, Roland asked strangely: "What? The Holy Land of Light doesn't trust you very much?"
"No, they are afraid that something will happen to us." Shuke said with a bitter smile: "Every ten years, one or two paladins will degenerate into black knights outside. Not to mention the loss of manpower, the black knights will turn their heads to face the light. The Sanctuary is fighting, and every time a paladin falls, it's a big deal. Over time, the Sanctuary becomes afraid."
Roland understood what it meant.
The code of conduct of the paladin is too demanding. Not to mention the various evils of the demons, it is also easy to be tricked and harmed. For example, the paladin is deceived by saying that there is a person who goes around killing people, and then the paladin believes it and goes there. Kill the so-called bad guys, and as a result... you will be punished by God.
Moreover, the Temple of Light is not completely bright. There is also a structure like the Inquisition, and some dark things are done for the benefit of the religion.
The paladin has been wandering around for a long time. If he accidentally encounters someone who bumps into his house and is doing bad things, his faith will easily collapse.
Therefore, the Sanctuary does not always like paladins running around outside.
Unless there are clear goals and requirements.
But neither the pope nor the saint can order the paladin to do something he doesn't like. In most cases, it is just persuasion.
Persuading in a good voice.
Most paladins actually have good personalities and are naturally easy to listen to.
There were people queuing up at the gate under the city wall, and Roland and Shuke were at the end of the queue.
Although Roland also wore a mage robe, he did not get any privileges this time.
Although people from the Guangming Cult will not look down on mages, they will not look down on them either.
After lining up to enter the Holy Land of Light, there is a very wide white stone avenue in front of us. How big is it
At least equivalent to the Chinese standard eight lanes.
On both sides of the truth were tall and low white rock buildings, spreading far away. As Roland looked into the distance, there was a huge white palace standing on the horizon in the distance that seemed to cover half of the sky.
The rich white holy light surrounds this huge palace. Even from a distance of nearly one kilometer, one can feel the majesty and sanctity of this palace.
Roland was stunned for a moment, then sighed: "It feels like looking up at the Three Gorges Dam from the bottom of the flood discharge area."
Shuke nodded: "I felt the same way when I saw the Temple of Light for the first time. This giant building is no worse than the one we have there."
The two were walking on the white stone street, with many pedestrians coming and going around them.
Most people are wearing white clothes or white robes, and only a few people are wearing other colors.
There were quite a few vendors on both sides of the road, but none of them shouted loudly. They just sat quietly and looked at the passing pedestrians with eager eyes.
Although the entire sanctuary has a large population and the pedestrians on the streets seem a bit crowded, it is not noisy or noisy.
It’s not that the pedestrians around me don’t speak, it’s that when they speak, they try to keep their voices as low as possible.
Shuke led him towards the direction of the Temple of Light, and at the same time said: "I won't take you around anymore, because you are not a believer of the Temple of Light, so many places are not open to you. If you break in, you will be easily Misunderstanding. I will take you directly to the big library. After all, for us, although it is lively here, there is actually nothing to see."
Roland wanted this very much. He was really afraid that Shuke would make a habit of being a host and take him around the city to travel or hang out.
Now he is not very interested in women, let alone scenic spots.
The two walked for another ten minutes, and then finally reached the bottom of the Temple of Light.
This palace is essentially a hill, with countless white square stones creating an exaggeratedly huge foundation. Roland looked up for a while and sighed helplessly.
Is the Great Library in this temple
It looks like the guards are very tight.
Roland had seen from a distance that several entrances to the palace were heavily guarded by bright guards wearing white robes. If it weren't for Shuke, he would definitely not be 'qualified' to enter.
Just when Roland was thinking this, Shuke suddenly turned right and led him to a relatively small, high-rise rock building.
"This is the big library." Shuke smiled: "Do you feel disappointed?"
Luo Si shook his head.
Shuke continued: "That's because it is built next to the Grand Temple. You may think it is small by comparison. In fact, it covers an area of more than thirty acres."
Roland didn't feel anything directly at this time, but when he entered the tall building and couldn't see the big temple next to it, Roland realized that what Shuke said was indeed right.
This big library is really big.
The neat bookshelves are like a sea of woods, with an endless view. There are many female priests inside, moving books back and forth and classifying them.
In the immediate area not far away, there were many priests in white robes quietly turning the pages of books.
A female pastor who was working on copywriting looked up and accidentally saw Shuke.
Then her eyes flashed with scales, and she took the initiative to walk up and asked, "Your Excellency Shuke, why are you here?"
"I came to see the saint and made an appointment with her." Shuke smiled.
"The saint is in the reading room on the third floor."
"Thanks."
Shuke nodded and left with Roland.
Behind them, the female priest was still looking at Shuke's back with reluctance.
Four minutes later. Roland saw the Saint of Light in a very spacious but simple room.
