Chapter 37: prayer

　　 Leaving the Violet House, Ren went to the tailor's shop to buy some new clothes for himself, his figure grew a bit bigger, and he couldn't wear his previous clothes.
　　 As soon as the carriage in the carriage entered Corsham Street, he watched around very carefully, so as not to encounter the fighter Hogan who might come to search for him.
　　 went downstairs to the apartment very smoothly, there was no trace of Hogan at all.
　　 "Maybe that Hogan doesn't know that I live on this street, but I overestimated his abilities, fighting against the air by myself."
　　 Renn laughed at himself.
　　 met several neighbors when he went upstairs, but they were not very familiar, so no one could see his changes.
　　 Back in the room, Renn took a long time in front of the mirror stinkingly. He was very satisfied with his current appearance, and then he considered his future plans.
　　 The top priority is to deal with the trouble caused by the marks of disputes.
Just outside, Renn observed many people with the eyes of souls, paying particular attention to people’s fire of faith, and found that most people, whether ordinary people or extraordinary people, believe in the three imperial gods, or one of them. Either believe in multiple people at the same time.
　　 Among them, the goddess of magic has the most followers, followed by the goddess of earth. The two add up to more than 80%, and about 10% of people believe in the of justice.
　　 The belief of the remaining one adult is very confused and does not belong to the three gods.
　　 Rehn didn’t know much about the gods, and he couldn’t distinguish the gods these people believed in. He could only judge whether he was a righteous or an evil by feeling the fire of faith.
　　 Then, he was very scared.
　　Because there are more people who believe in evil gods than you think!
　　 From the house of Violet to the apartment, Ren found more than a dozen believers who were suspected of evil gods, both ordinary people and extraordinary people.
　　 Regarding the distinction between righteous gods and evil gods, Renn was not very sure.
　　 Ellenius has many gods, each of the major races has its own system. The difference between righteous gods and evil gods is a subjective judgment made by human beings based on their own concepts of good and evil, and is affected by the influence of the church in the area.
　　 Anyone who has a hostile relationship with the gods the church believes in is called an evil god.
　　 These gods are all native gods of Ellenus, but they have different codes of conduct because of their different clerics.
　　 Some objective believers call the gods they do not believe in as alien gods, and those who believe in alien gods are alien believers.
　　 Only four terrifying gods from the abyss are truly regarded as evil gods by all the races of Ellenus!
　　 The dozen or so people found by Rennes were heretics, and none of them believed in Roche the fraudster, so they couldn't sense the marks of strife.
　　 "The Mark of Dispute..."
　　 It suddenly occurred to him that now that he can see the fire of faith, can he also find marks of strife?
　　 opened the eyes of the soul, searched for a long time on the body, but found nothing abnormal.
　　 "Still not working?" Renn was a little disappointed.
　　 For a long time, Soul Eye can only see the soul state of others, but cannot see his own soul. He can only judge his own soul situation through the information on the mobile phone interface.
　　 "If only I could see my own soul."
　　 Ryan scratched his head, glanced across the mirror, and suddenly had an idea, stood in front of the mirror again, and focused his head with the eyes of the soul.
　　 Suddenly, his head in the mirror became illusory, and a beam of light appeared.
　　 "Damn, I should have discovered it a long time ago. Looking in the mirror every day, I never thought of looking at myself with the eyes of the soul." Renn clapped his palms with chagrin, and then carefully observed his soul.
　　 Like other people, his soul is also a ray of light, but the strength of the soul is far beyond that of ordinary people. Even among the extraordinary, few can match it, and it is roughly equivalent to the third-level extraordinary.
　　 Deep in his soul, Ren saw a familiar red flower.
　　 "This should be my phone."
　　 Rehn looked at the red flower curiously. It was like a peculiar and powerful element, located at the core of the soul and integrated with the whole soul.
　　 "If the small red flower is also an element, what grade is it?"
　　Ryan suddenly thought, nodded with certainty, and said silently: "At least the legendary element, even higher!"
　　 The eight petals of the red flower are in full bloom, and a small tree full of life grows from the middle. This tree has only one branch and three leaves, and each leaf has an element rune.
　　 The world tree composed of soul power occupies most of the soul. Not far from under the tree, Ren discovered the existence of the blood soul curse.
　　 He could not help but sigh, even if he is a traverser, he cannot escape the curse of the Lord of Darkness.
　　 Then, Ren finally found the mark of strife!
　　 Above the soul, there is a black and red pattern. The twisted black skeleton is surrounded by blood and exudes an evil aura.
　　 It is this kind of outward aura that makes Roxi's followers feel its existence.
　　 Ryan has studied for a long time, but he doesn't know what to do. This imprint is bound to his soul, he can only see that he can't move, and is helpless.
　　 He looked at the mark, and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten something.
　　 There is fire of faith in the souls of others, but not in myself!
　　 "Is it because I don't have a of faith?"
　　 Wren remembers that his predecessor believed in the goddess of magic, but he was not very religious, and he did not pray many times. After taking possession of this body, he had never prayed.
　　 I haven’t prayed for too long, so the fire of faith has gone out?
　　The mark of conflict is also composed of divine power. Its position in the soul is the same as that of the fire of faith. If you have not had the fire of faith, will it be occupied forever and won't dissipate?
　　 Rein was a little worried, always feeling that the lack of fire of faith seemed not so good.
　　 But he is not willing to believe in a certain god.
　　 After passing through for so long, he gradually understood some things.
　　 In Ellenus, the end of the faithless is terrible. The reason why people must believe in a certain god, no matter the righteous or the evil god, is to gain protection. After death, the soul will not fall into the abyss and become the slave of the evil forever.
　　 Lane used to be a firm atheist, but after experiencing all this, he has been shaken.
　　 He hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to pray.
　　 If you have to believe in any god, the goddess of magic is the best choice.
This goddess is a very tolerant deity. He does not have strict requirements on believers and hardly interferes with believers’ daily lives. Because the priesthood contains authority such as "wisdom", "knowledge" and "magic", he prefers knowledge. For the profound believers, it would be even better if they could have powerful magical powers at the same time.
　　 Therefore, most of the spellcasters in humans are believers of the goddess of magic, especially wizards.
　　The goddess's pickers are almost the most powerful wizards.
In the Oriense Empire, the belief in the goddess of magic is even more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but his church does not have the same sense of existence as the other two righteous gods. Most churches are established in the form of libraries, and the organization of believers Not as strict as other churches.
　　 In addition, all schools in the empire are actually churches of the goddess, spreading his wisdom and glory.
　　 Ryan’s mother, Malinda, is a faithful believer of the goddess and a teacher in a church school. Under her leadership, the whole family is a believer of the goddess.
　　 He seriously recalled the prayers of the goddess, crossed his hands, index and middle fingers facing each other, forming an upward gesture, his eyes were slightly closed, and he muttered silently in his heart.
　　 After three consecutive prayers, Ren felt a strange power in his heart.
　　 This power is very weak, but it calms the heart, and has an indescribable sense of mystery and security.
　　 He looked at himself in the mirror, and found an invisible flame like a rainbow ignited in his soul, forming an illusory line on the top, submerged into the void, extending to the undetectable place.
　　 "Sure enough!"
　　 Reyn was overjoyed. After the fire of his own belief was generated, he immediately began to reject the marks of strife, and his breath was obviously weakened.
　　 He patiently observed for a moment, the strife was marked by the confrontation of the fire of faith, and it became less stable.
　　 Although it will be long before it dissipates completely, this is a good sign.
　　 Rehn decided to pray often in the future, not too often, just maintain the fire of faith. At least for now, he doesn't intend to be too pious, it's good to be a shallow believer.
　　 After staying in the apartment for a while, Renn went out again and went to the Basil Hotel.
　　 The shotgun is still hidden in the hotel room, and I have to go back to see Roger. I have not become a demon hunter, at least I have to tell him.
　　 I took the bus to the Lien area. Rehn found that there were too many heretics in this slum area, and it was simply a breeding ground for followers of the evil god.
　　 As always, the Basil Hotel is still so lively, and the lobby is full of card players.
　　 But there is also a change, that is, there are many more women than before.
They dress very boldly, or rather revealing, some are flirting with men, and some have joined the poker game, playing cards while frowning with their opponents, making men absent-minded~EbookFREE.me~ from time to time. A wave of laughter.
　　 "I am going, what's the situation?"
　　 Ren was stunned. He hadn't been here for a few days, why the Basil Hotel became a brothel!
He didn't find Roger, and walked to the counter, and saw Zoltan the dwarf flirting with a plump woman who looked a little fat from a human aesthetic. His hands were obviously dishonest under the counter, making the woman tremble all over. , Flushed face.
　　 "Zoltan." Renn called out.
　　 The dwarf saw that it was him, so he reluctantly retracted his hand and let the plump woman go to the side first. Without the slightest embarrassment on his face, he smiled heartily: "It's you, young man, if you didn't pay for the room, I thought you would not be back."
　　 "My things are still here." Renn glanced around Yingying Yanyan in the hall and asked curiously, "Is the Basil Hotel going to change?"
　　 "Oh, this is just a means to attract customers, you have seen it, everyone likes it, hehe..."
　　 Zoltan showed a "you understand" expression, fluttered the comb hairstyle on his head, and said cheerfully: "Do you want to try it? I'll call you two, it's cool!"
　　 Ren shook his head again and again, and quickly refused.
　　 Zoltan's taste is not very good, even a bit heavy.
　　 The women in the tavern are mostly plump, medium-to-lower, and all look like wolves and tigers. Just for a while, at least four or five women stared at him straightforwardly, wishing to take it for granted, he was really uninterested, and he didn't dare to provoke him.
　　 And, after seeing Viola, these vulgar fans were not in sight.
　　 "Where is Master Roger?" Rennes turned off the subject.
　　 Zoltan pointed to the courtyard at the back of the hotel and replied wretchedly: "He is happily behind."
