Vol 5 Chapter 14: Wake up

This is a magnificent castle-like building, divided into three areas.
The outermost area is the believer's area, which is the Scourge Cathedral.
Every day, a large number of believers come here. They worship the gods, worship incense, pray for blessings, pray sincerely, receive baptism, and the priests do charity, pray, and enlighten the world.
Unlike the Church of the Holy Spirit, the Church of the Holy Spirit believes that after the death of a person, the soul may rise to heaven, accompanied by the God of Light, enjoying eternal blessing, or going to to withstand the fire of hell. Believers have eternal life, and unbelievers suffer forever.
The Scourge Church believes that human life is given by God, and death is only the return of the life given by God. So Agath the Underworld is the greatest being, bringing everything to nothing. However, this does not mean that they support death, because the Scourge Church believes that no one can take anyone's life indiscriminately, except for the gods. Only death after baptism is a clean death, life returns to the embrace of the gods and reappears on earth one day.
On the other hand, the Temple of Odin in Eastern China believes that death is not a terrible thing, only the body is dissipated, and the soul will never die. The soul can even sublime, the believer can become a god's residence, and the unbeliever can become a demon.
It can be seen here that no matter what kind of church, it is good at defining life and death. Because they know that life and death are always the top priority of any life.
Of all the definitions of life and death, the Temple of Odin has the most tolerant attitude towards death, and believes that death is not terrible, and even has expectations. Therefore, the main battle power possessed by their church is a ferocious, brave and fearless fighter. The Scourge Church, through their teachings, sanctified death and controlled his life and death. The Church of the Holy Spirit is somewhere in between.
Fortunately, although Lasseter is a mad warrior in the East Continent, he is not a clergyman in the Temple of Odin, so he is not a pagan, otherwise he may be punished by the pagans first.
Religious disputes have always been cruel, and there is no human sentiment to talk about. After all, that involves the question of the principles of faith.
Passing the cathedral is the residential area of ​​the clergy of the Scourge Church. A large number of dark priests, clergy, and some special identities such as the guardian of the Holy Ghost exist. This area is relatively complex, including living areas, training areas, confessional areas dedicated to clergy, and the inner hall of the Presbyterian Church to handle internal affairs.
Further down is a tall temple. There is the third and most important area of ​​the Scourge Church: the Temple of Sacrifice.
There is a huge altar in the shrine, which is said to have existed long ago. No one knows its origin, only that it has a peculiar power. When enough sacrifices are given, it can communicate and communicate with the of the underworld.
"You mean, just there, you can communicate with the of the underworld?" Xiuyi asked with a little surprise.
Isador laughed and laughed: "Early when I talked to you for the first time, I told you that God exists, it's around us, listening to our voice, and observing our actions. Every time Over time, God will come down from the temple to give us pointers, and we will do His will. "
"Divinity?" Xiu Yi was surprised.
"Yes, God's parable!" Isador answered with certainty: "The Scourge Church was established under the guidance of the great God of Hades and thrived because of its existence. Hugh Iglell, you can't believe me Saying, but there is something about you coming, the of the dark has long known. "
"You mean the of the underworld knows I will come?" This statement surprised Xiuyi.
"Yes." Isador nodded.
"It's incredible. God can see the future?"
"God is omnipotent."
"If that's the case, why do you trade with me? Not all transactions become meaningless? What do you need? Just ask God for it."
Isador's face became very serious: "God is the creation of everything, we are all just his people. For God, we can only dedicate, not ask for it. If you are religious enough, then you may be able to get the gift of God . For God's gift, we must be grateful and content. God's will, we must hear, God's will, we must be satisfied, God's command, we must execute. Everything we do is under the guidance of God. It works. We succeed because God wants us to succeed, and we fail because God wants to test our loyalty. To God ... you can never ask for it! "
This is the answer from a typical religious fanatic.
Xiu Yi calmed down a little.
He knew that he had made a few mistakes just now, but fortunately Isador did not care about what he said.
After thinking about it, Xiuyi replied, "I still don't understand. If God knew me, then why did you go through such a fierce argument before reaching a deal with me?"
Isador answered, "Because God knows, we don't know."
Xiu Yi was shocked.
According to Isador ’s words, God knows everything, knows Xiuyi, and even knows that Xiuyi is coming. But his elders may not be interested in it and may not tell his people, so Isador does not know, and the Scourge Church does not know, this is normal.
To be more straightforward, now whoever stands in front of Isador, he can say to the other side very well: "God already knows everything about you and knows that you will be here. As for we do n’t know why God didn't tell us. "
Very common magic stick technique.
This makes Xi amused.
He could hear that Isador was from the bottom of the heart, but Xiuyi didn't like the so-called omniscient God.
It looks too ethereal and too ethereal.
"So, God is watching me now?" Xiuyi asked.
"God created all beings and looked down upon them. Everything is in his eyes."
"If all beings were created by God, then who created God?"
"God was born in accordance with the laws of this world. Symbiosis with the world, no one can create!" Isador's face became serious. Obviously he is not satisfied with Xi's rudeness.
Xiu finally stopped asking.
Looking away, the tall temple in the distance, the lingering incense, smelled a strong mystery.
For some reason, Xiu's heart suddenly jumped violently.
He felt as if a force was approaching him and peering at himself.
There was a strange feeling deep in his heart, as if a voice whispered in his heart.
It was as if something was calling him.
This Xiu Yi was startled, but when he felt it with his heart, the feeling had disappeared, and only the mysterious hall in front of him still stood.
"What's wrong with you?" Isador saw Xiu stop suddenly.
"Just now ... as if something had penetrated into my body, as if someone was calling me softly." Xiu looked at Isador in confusion.
A happy smile appeared on Isador's face: "You finally feel the power of God, child. That is the calling of God to you. As I said, God is great. He is omnipresent. Already know your coming. "
Xiu Yi looked at the temple, and finally said, "Under Isador, can I go and worship the of the underworld?"
"Of course, after completing our transaction."
"Ah!" A scream that shattered the night's tranquility.
Simone sat up, beside him, the man was yelling madly holding his head. His eyes were red, his veins were tingling with blue veins, and he looked like an angry lion with a terrible growl.
"Brother Stone!" Simone called out.
She quickly jumped out of bed and brought the clear water she had prepared. Then he took out a towel and wiped it on the man with water.
Large drops of sweat fell from the man, and he growled in a low voice, his image terrifying.
Simone trembled and wiped the man in shock. She didn't know when the man would lose her mind and tear herself into pieces, but she insisted that she didn't run away and took all the courage to care for the man .
Men's headaches came on suddenly half a month ago.
On the first day of his attack, he lost his mind, became mad, and nearly killed Simone. Fortunately, he finally recovered his consciousness at the last moment and controlled himself. At that time, Simone's neck bone was almost broken by him.
Soon after that, every day or two, men would have a headache. Every headache made him extremely scary.
Surprisingly, Simone showed extraordinary courage at this time.
Whenever a man's illness hits, she will take care of him gently next to him. Over time, the condition of the stone actually improved significantly.
He no longer loses his mind when he attacks.
Today the man's pain seems to have improved significantly.
In just ten minutes, he stopped roaring.
He was lying in bed, asleep like a child.
When he woke up the next day, the man found nothing around him.
Out of the cabin, Simone was sitting alone at the bow, wondering what she was thinking.
The man came to sit next to her, and said with some difficulty, "Thank you."
Simone looked at the man in amazement.
These days, she speaks a lot with Stone every day, just like teaching a child teeth. Because of this, Stone's speech became more and more fluent, but he never actively said, and always responded passively.
But today, he broke this habit.
This made Simony happy.
It's not easy to change this stubborn guy.
However, Simone believes that no matter how difficult the problem will always be solved.
It's a pity that one thing the stone is still stubborn is that he always holds the black long sword, and no one is allowed to touch it.
This annoyed Simone. Once she asked him, "Brother Stone, why do you always hold it?"
Stone thought for a while before answering: "I ... don't want you ... to be hurt."
"Hurt?" Simone was confused.
In Simone's view, the sword is the sword, how could it hurt others?
But no matter how she asked, Stone just didn't answer.
Perhaps he didn't know why, but there was a feeling deep in his heart: no one except him could touch the sword.
No, maybe there is another person to touch.
But who is that person?
He couldn't remember.
A faint shadow appeared in his mind, but he couldn't remember who it was.
And he found that whenever he tried to get back that lost memory, his headaches started.
However, with the increase in the number of headaches, the degree of pain is gradually decreasing, and then there are countless strange fragments in the mind.
He saw some special scenes.
The dark room, the grinning smile, the hazy sky and the ground.
He heard some special voices.
Fierce whipping, powerless wailing, angry scolding, and angry lion-like roaring, poor begging, prayers to gods, and huge explosions shining with countless brilliance.
He smelled something special.
The rotten, moldy, foul, dirty, as if in the world of hell.
Occasionally there is a sunny side, as if childhood memories, full of laughter.
"I had a nightmare yesterday ..." he said.
"What is it?" Simone asked curiously.
"There is ... a girl," he said, touching his head.
Simone's face became a little ugly.
He continued: "She died ... terribly ... but ... I can't remember who she is ... and a girl ... she looks very scary ... there is a big scar on her face ... ... I can't remember her ... who it is. "
"Is that so ... maybe your memory is recovering. I think your headache may be related to this." Simone whispered.
"But I don't want to remember," he answered.
Simone looked up suddenly.
She found him looking at herself and said in a straight voice, "If I remember ... maybe I will go."
He lowered his head, like a child who made a mistake: "I don't want to leave you, I don't want to lose you."
Simone fluttered and laughed.
She struck him gently: "Good brother, you won't lose me."
"Cough, cough."
There were several coughs from the elderly behind him.
Simone and the stone quickly separated, cheeks flushed.
Secretly looking back, the old man was walking into the cabin with his hands on his back, while walking and talking to himself: "Oh, this sun is so poisonous that my old man can't even open his eyes."
"Flop!" Simone laughed, covering her mouth.
The man on the opposite side apparently didn't understand what had happened, and looked at Simone anxiously.
He just looked at it, he just loved to see her true and sunny smile that day.
Simone's eyes rolled round, she suddenly took the stone's hand and shouted into the cabin loudly: "Grandpa, I'll take Stone Brother to the shore for a while."
The old man's helpless voice came from the cabin: "Be careful, this area is the territory of Count Beavis. Don't go too far."
"I know grandpa."
"Remember, don't pick the fruit from the tree."! ~!
