Regnar sat on the chair a little drowsily. The hotel where he lived was not very close to the Holy Light's Hope Chapel, and in order to get to the chapel as early as possible, he got up at six o'clock today.
For Irene, getting up at this time is basically a daily routine, so the half-elf girl still maintains very strong energy. But since Regnar came to the continent of Chino, he has become a lot more lazy. He no longer has the diligence he had when he was a mercenary. In addition, he was injured in the previous game, and he basically had to sleep until ten every day. point to wake up.
And it is worth mentioning that, probably due to his attribute ability, Regnar has recovered very quickly from his injuries in the past two days. Although his head still hurts, this injury basically does not affect his normal activities. . But if you want him to fully recover, it will probably take less than half a month. Fortunately, there is still some time before the semi-finals between the top four begin. If he rests peacefully, he should be able to fully recover before the start of the game.
As for Enelise, this little girl is usually very obedient, but once she falls asleep, she acts like a little pig. If she hadn't insisted on taking her with her last night, Regnar wouldn't have called her this morning. You can't imagine how troublesome it would be to wake her up!
And now, the little girl was sleeping soundly like a baby in Regnar's arms. This was requested by Inelise herself, saying that the chair was too hard to sleep on. So Regnar held Inelis forcefully for more than two hours, and now his arms were extremely sore. And he was actually very sleepy. If it wasn't for Inelise, he might have fallen asleep on the chair.
In this way, under the torture of both mental and physical exhaustion, Regnar waited for Irene to finish her first prayer. And he really admired that Martin. This guy kept praising Perot right next to him. Not only have I not used the same words in the past two hours, I haven't even had a sip of water. Regnar really doubted whether the poor priest would die of dehydration if Irene delayed for another two hours.
But obviously the kind-hearted Irene would not do this. Just when Regnar himself couldn't hold on, Irene finally completed her first prayer.
The light on the statue of Pelor slowly dissipated, and then the remaining pressure in the room also disappeared, which meant that Pelor's will had left the room. Regnar was the first to notice this. Due to the difference in attributes and concepts, only Regnar in the whole room would be obviously affected by Peiro's coercion. The others would at most feel the majesty of the will, but No discomfort from this.
Therefore, Regnar immediately felt refreshed when the pressure dissipated. He opened his sleepy eyes and found that Irene had stood up.
"Is it over?" Regnar changed his position to hug Inelis with gentle movements, and then asked softly.
"Yes." Eileen looked more energetic than before. It's no wonder. It can be said that her soul has been bathed in the light of Pelor for the past two hours. The power of the sun god has a strong influence on kindness. It has this nourishing effect on both the soul and the bright soul.
"Huh? What is this?" Regnar noticed that a gem the size of a pigeon egg suddenly appeared in Irene's hand. He did not remember what this girl had taken before.
"No... nothing..." Irene secretly put the gem away close to her body. This is the gift that Pero gave to himself... Although it is basically impossible to use this thing, Irene is still determined to keep it well. After all, the sacrifice Irene made to get it is too great. Even if this thing is just a pebble, Irene will definitely be reluctant to throw it away.
Regnar shrugged indifferently. Since Irene didn't want to say anything, he didn't bother to ask. Anyway, if it was really a big deal, this girl would naturally come to him to discuss it.
"What did God say?" Martin quickly came over and asked. Even for a high-level priest like him, there are only a handful of opportunities to directly communicate with Pelor's will. And this Irene was able to cause the effect when praying for the first time. Perot's attention. Envy, jealousy, and hatred would not be an exaggeration to describe his feelings towards Irene now.
"Well... God allowed me to become his priest, so now I also have the power of a mid-level priest, which should be level ten, right? I remember what he said at the time." Erin thought for a while and then answered, At the last moment, she felt a sharp pain in her head. Immediately afterwards, a large amount of knowledge poured into her brain, various teachings, various magical spells, effects, key techniques, daily prayer requirements, etc...
If Irene were really asked to read and study one by one, it would probably take her a year or two to fully absorb the knowledge. But now, Pero used his own power to pour them directly into Erin's mind, which saved her a lot of trouble.
"What?!" Regnar and Martin said in unison.
Level 10 priest? Intermediate priest? ! A few minutes ago she was just an ordinary girl with no power, right? How come you have such powerful power after just one prayer? Does this count as cultivation? Can this kind of speed be considered a cultivation speed? He, Regnar, fought tooth and nail for three years before barely reaching level 14, but even this speed made others want to curse.
But now Regnar suddenly feels that he is not even a scumbag when compared with Irene. You have achieved level 14 in three years, and she has achieved level 10 in two hours. How can you compare? What a fart! Is this cheating? This is definitely a plug-in! And this Pelor 8th achievement is specifically for distributing cheats, right? In this case, should I, Regnar, also say a few nice words to him? Maybe if this old boy is happy, he will give me a dozen more levels? The requirements are not high, as long as you can reach the sanctuary and crush Clayton!
Martin looked at Erin with a look that was not only shocked but also a little fanatical. But in the end, the high-ranking priest adjusted his emotions. He sighed lowly, spit out all his unnecessary emotions, and then said: "Congratulations, kid, you are a god." The favored ones.”
"Huh? What is that?" Irene was stunned. She had gained a lot of knowledge from Pero, but none of it was related to this word.
"This is just a name among us mortals." Martin guessed that she might have obtained some knowledge from Peiro, but obviously, these were still not comprehensive enough. He explained: "I think you should know that the great Peiro Luo has thousands of followers, but even God will favor some of them. Even if these people have just converted to his disciples, he will still give these believers generous gifts. And such people are considered by us Become the favored one of God. Oh, of course, this is not because our merciful God is unfair to his believers, but because these believers will indeed do better than others. God is always clear about rewards and punishments, and God The appearance of the Beloved One just confirms this point.”
"But..." Eileen understood what Martin meant, and she couldn't help but ask: "I don't remember that I have ever made any contribution to Pelor... I was not a believer of Pelor before."
"But you believe in goodness and light, and you have never wavered in these more than ten years. In a sense, Pelor is not only a god, but also a symbol. And what he symbolizes is goodness and light, so, Even if you are not a believer in Pelor, as long as you always insist on kindness, then our kind and great God will answer your prayers."
Martin smiled: "My child, although I don't know your past, but since you can become God's favored one, it means that you have always been a gentle and kind person in the past. But now, God has made a difference to your kindness and persistence. These are the rewards that God thinks you deserve. Moreover, it is precisely because you still advocate kindness without the restraint and guidance of Pelor, which further reflects the preciousness of these qualities of yours. Therefore, God will treat you Such believers are particularly favored, and you are naturally a favored one by God."
"Really?" Eileen was a little happy. Her mother taught her since she was a child to become a kind person. She had believed in this in the past, but her experiences in the past few years have also made her think differently about the world. disappointment.
A few years ago, Erin had doubted whether kindness was really useful. After all, there were many cruel and evil villains who had a better life than her. But fortunately, her mother's teachings have left a deep mark on her heart. Although she has experienced pain and ups and downs in the past few years, she has never let go of the kindness in her heart.
But now, her persistence was rewarded. A great god recognized her approach and gave her a generous reward. More importantly, she received God's affirmation, which once again convinced her of the truth her mother taught her: no matter how cold and cruel the world is, kindness and tolerance will always be rewarded.
"Of course it's true, my good boy." Martin looked at Eileen lovingly. Although he had been working hard to improve his character under the brilliance of Pero, he was still not a saint. When he first met Eileen, he, like everyone else, was instinctively disgusted with this ugly little girl. But as they got along with each other in the past two days, he gradually discovered what a transparent and pure heart this ugly little girl had.
These things are far more attractive than those exaggerated and hypocritical appearances. But the funny thing is that most people stayed away from her precisely because of these hypocritical things, and did not notice the inner brilliance of this half-elf girl at all.
"Son, I have a suggestion," Martin said.
"Speak, Mr. Martin."
"I think you need a mentor, and I am happy to guide you to continue on the road of light and kindness." Martin said directly. He really took a fancy to Irene's identity as a favored one. If he can get along with If Erin gets on the line, maybe she will gain something else in the future. Moreover, he is now nearly fifty years old. Although his life span has not yet reached the end, it is not unusual for him to have a few disciples at his age. And the God-favored person in front of him is indeed a very suitable choice.
However, he was not sure whether Irene would agree. After all, although high-level priests were rare, those favored by God were obviously even rarer. If she ran out in her identity, there should be many people willing to accept her as a disciple.
"Brother Regnar?" Irene turned to Regnar for help. She was not a very independent girl to begin with. She forced herself to make the decision when there was no Regnar in the past, but now Regnar has returned to her. , so her long-lost sense of dependence gradually recovered.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Martin." Regnar moved his sore arm again, and then said apologetically: "If you will lead Irene to practice after becoming a disciple and spread the light of Pelor, then we can only I refused. Because neither I nor Eileen want to be separated from each other."
Regnar knew that every priest would lead his disciples to travel around after accepting a disciple. On the one hand, he would train his disciples' character, and on the other hand, he would spread the glory of his god in order to obtain more favors from the god.
"No, Irene is a favored one by God and is already a mid-level priest, so I don't think she needs to travel with me." Martin shook his head and said, "I only mean that when Irene encounters confusion When the time comes, she can come and seek my help. Although I am not a favored person, I have served Pelor for nearly twenty years, so I think maybe some of my experience can help Irene avoid some detours. This is My so-called master and apprentice.”
"Hmph, has the old magic stick taken a fancy to Irene's status as the favored one?" Garona said with some disdain.
"Is this any loss to Irene?" Regnar asked. To be honest, he respected his teacher more and more. Although she was not able to teach him every move face to face, this short period of companionship also made him realize how much help Garona had brought to him. It can be said that her meaning is far more important than the two notes Villes gave himself. At least now, he could consult Garona at any time about priest matters.
"Don't worry, it's okay. Every God's Blessed is a hot commodity. He, Martin, just wants to set up a line with Irene, hoping that he might be able to appear in Peiro's field of vision a few more times." Garona Said: "So nothing will happen. On the contrary, if Irene has any difficulties in the future, she can come to him, which is convenient."
"I see."
Regnar smiled at Martin and said, "In that case, I will be very happy to see that Irene can get your guidance."
