Chapter 114:

"So that's it..."
Luya looked at Jerrold and couldn't help asking, "Then what will happen to those who are found unfaithful to God?"
"According to the severity of the crime, disloyal people are ashamed of the safe life and food provided by the gods. They will be expelled from the city and will no longer be blessed. If they try to betray the gods, our church will execute them publicly. Warning."
Isn't that similar to the imperial approach? I always feel that the empire seems to be more humane in treating prisoners, and will give them the choice between being exiled or working in a radiation factory. The main reason is that the empire is afraid of increasing the number of dead spirits in the city, and will not directly execute people. It will drive people out and let them fend for themselves. Only Lianna is a special case...
...?
Lu Ya was stunned. No, why would she know what happened in the imperial capital? Has she ever entered the imperial capital?
Yeah! My memory suddenly becomes so strange, what is going on? I always feel that I have forgotten a very important thing.
It may be that he noticed Luya's distraction, Gerrod frowned and gave her a dissatisfied look, "What are you thinking?"
"Ah no, it's nothing. I just feel that the gods have given us a comfortable life, but some people don't know how to cherish it. They are too greedy."
Luya shook her head and replied just as Gerrod said.
"Hmph, you are right, you newcomers are more grateful than those heretics."
Luya’s words finally made Gerrod’s face a little better. He opened the Bright Bible in his hand and said to Luya,
If it goes well, it will take about a day to reach Targres. Studying our Bible will help you pass the test of the guard."
"Well, thank you for your reminder."
Luya nodded, and then opened the Illumination Bible together, and decided to listen to Gerrod's explanation.
She only remembered that she had gone to a dead end and couldn't survive. In order to seek the blessing of the gods, she and her companions went through hardships and finally came here, but she couldn't make a mistake.
Jerrod explained to her the content of the Bright Bible, and mentioned some conditions in this continent. She came by coincidence. Next month, the daughter of Lord Lambda, the great priest of the Holy Capital, will be selected as the saint, and a nationwide celebration will be held at that time.
"In the earliest prophecy, the Saint of Light will be able to accompany the gods and become the closest person to the world, bringing the world's first son of God before the end."
what? Will the saint give birth to God?
Luya was shocked when she heard this, not knowing if there was a problem with Gerrod's statement, Luya always felt that this was not a serious matter. But she didn't dare to continue thinking about it, for fear of being judged as impious and being driven away.
Anyway, the saint sounded so far away to her, Luya forced herself to correct her thoughts, and said with some regret, "Is a mediocre person like me, can't contact the saint or the in my life?"
"Not everyone can see the gods, but if you learn to improve yourself, you can enter the temple and become a nun. When I am about my age, you may become a priest, and maybe one day you can witness the true face of the gods."
"Hmm... I will definitely work hard."
In fact, Lu Ya didn't have much expectation in her heart. She only hoped that her life could settle down, and she didn't dare to think too much about anything else.
Jerrold looked at her, still satisfied.
When arriving at the sacred city of Targres, the sky was completely dark. With magic lights hung on the rhino car, they went smoothly all the way, avoiding the attacks of the dead in the wild. Until late at night, they finally arrived at the gate of the city, and then accepted the guard's scrutiny.
"No problem, pass!"
The guards of Tarregs were not strict. After the loyal spar did not respond, they let Luya go.
Targres in the night is very quiet, in the city under the shield of the gods, even the dead are suppressed, and there is no need to keep the lights bright.
After Gerrod handed the giant rhinoceros to the breeding farm for care, he took Luya to the temple of Targres. When he planned to stay here for one night and report the situation, the local priests saw the girl he had brought. After taking a look at her appearance, she was suddenly very alert.
They checked and questioned her for a while, and talked with Gerald at the same time.
"Sorry, Lord Jerrold, I'm afraid you can't take this girl to the Holy Capital for the time being."
"What's the matter?" Gerrod couldn't help frowning slightly. "I have received an order to send all the recently gifted freshmen to Rustland. What reason do you have to stop me?"
"It was an order from Master Este. There is a traitor among the newborns. The prophecy is a girl who is similar to her age. The newborn you brought back seems to meet the conditions. We must focus on observing her, at least in Iraq. Before Siti is baptized as a saint, nothing can go wrong."
"It's ridiculous!"
Gerrod was immediately very angry, "I obeyed Lambda's orders, representing the will of the gods. I have tested that this girl is loyal, and she has passed the review and has a certain talent, Lord Este I don’t have the right to do it!"
"But this girl must stay here, at least she can't go to the Holy Capital."
The priests of Targres did not give in, and solemnly said to Gerald, "Even if you are loyal, you can't leave here until Master Este has confirmed whether she is threatening."
"So when will Master Esther confirm it? How long will I have to wait here?" Gerrod said with a stern face, "If you can't set off before the sun sets tomorrow, the misty forest will rain. It's been a long time. I don't understand, are you listening to the orders of Lord Lambda or Lord Este?"
"We didn't receive the order from the Grand Priest Lambda, only the prophecies directly conveyed by Master Este."
"Then I will go on my own road tomorrow, and I will personally go to the Holy Capital to ask Master Esther for verification." Gerrod said angrily.
"It's about to rain. It's dangerous to pass through the foggy forest, so please stay here too."
With weird smiles on their faces, the priests of Targres stopped Gerald who wanted to leave and put him under house arrest.
...
…………
Este Lambda was pacing in the bedroom uneasy, looking at the letter sent by the priests of Targres.
As she feared, the priest in Midalte found a girl who was similar to her age and had arrived in the sacred city of Targres.
...Will it be her sister? That has become the biggest threat in this land of gods, that sister.
Esther didn’t understand what the gods thought. She was always the favorite of the gods since she was a child. People in the whole country believed that she would be baptized and become a saint when she turned sixteen. Always be with the gods. And until she saw the complete prophecy book that her father had put in the study one day, she suddenly felt that her world had collapsed.
She thinks that she is the protagonist of the story, and she has a lot of love, and the gods treat her differently from others. When she was young, when she was taken by her father to see the gods, the great Darius, who seemed to be beautiful and did not belong to this world, took a look at her. In the vast sea of ​​people, the gods only noticed her.
She thought that when she came of age at the age of sixteen, she would become the saint in the prophecy book kept in the temple library after she was baptized, giving birth to the son of God for her most beloved great god, and realizing the greatest in her life. And the most important meaning...
Her father was the eyes of the gods, and he was born with the ability to predict. The talents of the favored ones are all gifted by God and will be passed on to future generations. She is the daughter of her father but failed to inherit that talent. But this does not prevent her from becoming the most beloved human being by the gods. However, what she did not expect is that the person who was sent to suffer in the prophecy and will eventually return to become a saint is her sister.
She has an older sister who even inherited the talent of her father. After the death of her father, her prophetic power will be fully awakened and become a brand-new eye of God, who will accompany the saint beside the gods, and her destiny However, he inherited his father's position and became the great priest of Grandi Continent, assisting the gods.
She didn't understand why her sister had completely subverted the plan of the gods and became the most sinful betrayer, but the great she trusted the most did not give her sister the punishment she deserved?
Even in the latest prophecy of my father, something like that appeared...
The person chosen by the gods is not her, but her sister who has never stepped into the sacred land, has not received any divine teaching, is crude, ignorant and unbearable, and even betrays their great land for evil creatures
Why did my father never tell her that there is still this sister? Even a secret order was issued... Does the father still want to bring that woman back to the gods?
Estie squeezed the scepter in her hand angrily. She would never allow such a thing to happen. Those who betrayed the gods were not worthy of all that, and Eve Lambda was not worthy of seeing the gods!
Even if she was killed by mistake, she would never allow the possibility of her betrayer sister to appear and step into St. Lustrand.
The author has something to say: In fact, it’s okay to put this part of the chapter in a flashback at the beginning of the story...
I’m too tired. Recently, things have been annoying and a lot. I may not be able to update on time tomorrow, but it will be even more.
