Vol 2 Chapter 161: The bell of the church rings (Part 1)

When the Midsummer Festival came to an end, the Holy Cross Church in Ebden welcomed a new bishop from the Principality of Lotel, known as the godly cleric Fanesses.
This is a very novel thing throughout Ebden, but what shocked the Ebden people is still behind-just at the inauguration ceremony of Bishop Farnesses, the only Bellini family in the entire Liberty Council He suddenly announced that he would donate all his property in the civilian area south of Eboden to allow the Holy Cross Church to build a church and build a relief center for the poor.
If this "little money" is not worth mentioning to the Bellini family who sits on the ocean-going caravan, then the next thing is astonishing:
Alto Bellini, a talented alchemist who just took over the family from his uncle who died unexpectedly and became the head of the Bellini family, donated all his research efforts-the research formula and all the results of the Holy Blood Elixir, and donated it for free To the Holy Cross Church in Ebden.
In recognition of the devotional behavior of the Bellini family, Bishop Fanesis announced on the spot that the Holy Cross Church will maintain its sacred and pure status from now on, and will no longer directly take over any form of money. The "Church Tax" paid by the Ebden Free Council is entirely managed and operated by the Bellini family, and also bears all the expenses of the Ebden Church.
The entire Ebden was stunned!
From the official appointment of this devout Fanesis, the Holy Cross Church in Ebden changed overnight-no longer the dispensable in the hearts of people in the past, it was completely a decoration, only on Sunday. Go back to the pretending church once;
Alto Bellini, who suddenly "converted the camp", also brought a lot of wealth and opportunities to the Church of the Holy Cross-as a representative of a businessman, the Bellini family controls the ocean caravan, a large number of workshops ... More importantly, it is the right of the Free Parliament to speak.
Within a week, with the help of the Bellini family and their followers, the Freedom Council almost passed the Nine-Man Star Sorcerer's Tower and passed two bills-first to open absolute missionary power to the church and second to the parish leader .
The first one is to ensure that any movement of the church in Ebden will not be restricted; the second one is to allow the Holy Cross Church in Ebden, like other principalities, to allow a certain number of armed forces.
For the wizard city of Ebden, the result is full of devastation-the base camp of the wizarding world will finally fall under the glory of the Holy Cross.
All of this has lessons to learn, but the aristocrats of the Nine-Mounted Star Wizard Tower and the Freedom Council are not very worried. Laws can be changed overnight. The establishment of prestige and prestige is to accumulate for a long time. Eboden's status cannot be changed by one or two bills.
But Farnesses still has a card, Holy Blood Elixir.
After obtaining the pharmacy formula, with the resources and sufficient manpower provided by the Bellini family, and the church is spread over half of the Holy Cross Church in Ebdon, it only took a week to mass-produce the "shrinked version" of the Holy Blood The potions, and at the entrance of each church, are distributed free of charge to all devout believers.
The plan of Fanesis is very clear. The civilian area in the south of the city is half of the entire Ebden, and the number of civilians accounts for three quarters of the entire Ebden. As long as they can get their love, the Holy Cross Church can Get a foothold in this blasphemous city again!
The love and support of civilians is the real trump card of the Holy Cross Church, and is something that the wizards can always expect and cannot be expected-the things they touch are destined to be respected and awed by these people at most, but not like Like the priests of the church, they are loved by believers.
In the south and west of the city, there are long queues outside the gates of each broken or magnificent church, packed with holy cross believers who have never been pious in this city, with a look forward to 'S face looked desperately inside.
And once the past was decadent and became kind and eye-catching, the gentle priests and nuns also distributed the medicine bottles containing the "Holy Blood Elixir" to everyone who was willing to worship in the church.
The only price is the insignificant "May the Holy Cross bless the humble us."
With only one sentence, they can get medicines that can cure all diseases, heal old wounds, and regenerate the residual limbs-countless dying patients, disabled beggars, poor homeless people, dying old people, just discretion After drinking that drop of potion, I was instantly reborn!
The poor people who were grateful fell to their knees in front of the gate of the church, telling their tragic stories to everyone who was close, and thanking the Holy Cross for the miracle they gave them, so that they could once again live like healthy people.
Of course, maybe they will never know how "incredible" the potions they call "miracles" are.
That is definitely not just a cure for their "disease" ...
Wandering in the garden of the Corona mansion, Loren looked at the small bottle in his hand and gently pulled out the stopper, allowing the bright red liquid to sprinkle on the lawn under his feet, dyeing the emerald green grass to dark red .
Although it was only a small movement, the dark-haired wizard did very serious work, as if it were a special ritual, and did not even notice the white-haired girl who was behind him.
"Do you care about this?"
Ariel, who walked behind Laurent, whispered softly, her arms flimsy around her waist from behind—even though she was wearing clothes, the dark-haired wizard could feel the limbs cold to the point of no temperature.
"Do you care? Just two weeks ago, I almost lost my life because of this thing." Loren didn't look back and chuckled indifferently: "Now, almost all over the street, just find a church. How could you not care?
"So dear Loren is satisfied?" Soft voice, the girl behind him gently rubbed his back with his small head: "Now you are safe, and you have what you want, don't use it Tension, you can put your guard down in front of Ariel. "
"Yeah, it's time to pay the debt." Loren looked back slightly with a little self-deprecation, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth:
"With such a big circle, I think it's time for you to tell me what you want to get, although I think I might have guessed a little bit."
"Oh?" There was a slight smile on the girl's pale face, as if expecting it, and she hugged Loren harder: "Guess what? Ariel really wants ..."
"First of all, it ’s your identity. I thought about it for a long time ... you know Asriel, you know his identity-but as far as I know it is almost impossible, even in Lotel, familiar with this legend There are not many people. "
Loren turned back indifferently, and calmly pressed Ariel ’s uncontrollable waist with his right hand, with a smooth, delicate and cold touch ~ EbookFREE.me ~
"So, I will assume that you may have encountered another goblin who knew Asrell, or another devil and evil spirit. After all, I have met one of his" old acquaintances ". There is some understanding.
But you are different, Miss Ariel, you are ashamed of Asriel, this is the biggest difference I have seen and understood-fear may be normal, after all, how can mortals feel no fear in front of the evil Well, but fear and threats ... that is completely different emotions. "
"Why should you care about this?" The girl's eyelashes twitched slightly, and the charming eyes were soft. "Can't you feel it? Ariel is completely to you ..."
The girl suddenly lost her speech, because a right hand restrained her soft neck, and the joint against the throat could break the delicate neck at any time.
"Sorry, because I hate being tricked, and I even hate situations I don't understand at all." Loren's expression cooled down a little bit:
"Let me make another guess-what will happen to the next Eboden, especially the civilian area in the south of the city that is covered by the Holy Blood Potion, you are also clear!"
