Chapter 56 Salahan (Part 2)

San Marino Cathedral is a church located in the west of Sarakan City. It is also the only three churches in Sarakan except for the Holy Church headquarters that can be named before the church name.

The person in charge of this church is Archbishop Edric, who is also one of the eighteen highest-ranking archbishops in the Holy Church except the Pope.

In terms of momentum, the temple of San Marino Cathedral is magnificent and imposing. Every day, thousands of believers come here to pray to the Holy Spirit, listen to the priests preaching and explain the doctrine.

Walking through the long white jade staircase street, Xiuyi visited the surrounding scenery under the guidance of the little boy Bill.

Today is the Holy Baptist Day held every seven days.

The believers who came here to kneel and beg for baptism far more than before, and the square in front of the church was filled with believers of no less than 5,000 people.

The solemn sermon of the priest rang over the cathedral, with solemn sacredness.

According to the rules of the Holy Spirit Church, at the moment when believers perform sacred baptism, non-believers can also enjoy this sacred and solemn ceremony, but do not make loud noises.

Xiuyi was also able to stop around the square with other tourists to enjoy it.

What surprised Thuyi was that at least hundreds of holy warriors guarded the place by the Cathedral of San Marino.

He couldn't help asking Bill: "Does there be so many holy warriors guarding every church?"

Little Bill shrugged: "That's not the case. There were only about ten holy warriors in the church. But a few days ago, all the churches suddenly increased the number of guardians."

"Why?"

"It's not because of that Shuyeglare, I heard that he defeated the holy magician of the Lance Empire and broke the holy realm. It's really hard to imagine how the power of the realm could be cracked. That guy said he was coming to the church headquarters."

"So this is the church's approach to Shio Iglare? It's like facing a great enemy?"

"That's right." The little boy replied.

Xiu Yi sneered softly.

Fortunately, before coming, he made some changes to his appearance, dyeing his blonde hair black and making his skin slightly darker. Otherwise, he would be afraid that he would be recognized as soon as he stepped into Sarahham's door.

Judging from this arrangement, the Holy Spirit Church is not friendly to his upcoming attitude.

"I really don't understand why the church is so hostile to that Sue Glair." Little Bill couldn't understand this problem. In his opinion, Sue Glair is so powerful that it is obviously unwise to provoke such a powerful enemy.

"Because he is a soul wizard, and the teachings of the Holy Spirit Church do not allow soul wizards to exist in this world."

"Oh, yes, the soul mage is the most evil existence in the world, even more evil than the necromancer Dark mage!" Little Bill answered seriously.

"So can you tell me why the Soul Mage is evil?"

"Because the soul mage plays with human souls. The human soul is the embodiment of will and the fundamental reason why humans are nobler than other creatures. We cannot tolerate any life blasphemy of human souls." Little Bill said a long passage very fluently, and it is obvious that this is the daily indoctrination teaching of the Holy Spirit Church.

Xiu Yi shook his head in a funny way: "Playing with the soul? It sounds so nice. Soul spells are just an ability to influence human consciousness. Where can we say that they play? Magic is a sacred existence and is the result of the evolution of this natural power. No spell can be described by playing with the word "playing with the word "."

"Then why do you think the church prohibits the existence of soul wizards?"

"Because they are the ones who really play with human will." Xiu Yi said coldly.

This answer made little Bill tremble and looked at Xiu Yi in surprise.

Suyi has been thinking about what caused the Holy Spirit Church to massacre the soul wizards. In a discussion with Rasher later, Suyi discovered the key to the problem.

On the earth in the past, religion was entirely because people were oppressed by life. The birth of religion was to help people get rid of pain in their hearts. This is the positive significance of its existence in society.

To do this, one must first weave a world for believers to believe.

To put it bluntly, all doctrines, including the Bible, are actually fantasy novels of some degree, but the story framework of this kind of fantasy novel is larger, more organized, more clear in purpose, and more widely disseminated. As for rationality and logic, it may not be necessary.

Different from ordinary fantasy novels, the latter only needs to bring entertainment to readers, and openly declared it to be fiction from the beginning, while the former firmly believes that it is real, and even takes various measures, including forced means, to make people believe that it is real.

The purpose of the latter is just to make some money to support the family, while the purpose of the former is to enslave people. Although it is undeniable that religion has its positive effect, which can comfort the believers' physical and mental body and mind, and at the same time encourage people to be good, by the same token, anything will undergo essential changes in the later stages of development, and gradually becomes a tool for the powerful to enslave their people.

There is a very real legend that the Bible was ordered by a monarch of a certain Roman Empire to be compiled collectively by some famous scholars. The purpose is to lay the sacredness of the monarch's power and serve to enslave people's thoughts.

But this is the religious situation in the Earth's era.

In the magic era of Fengming Continent, what Xiyi felt most difficult to understand was that no matter whether it is the Church of the Natural Scourge or the Holy Spirit, there is actually no holy book like the Bible or the Quran.

They have doctrines, but are general and irregular, have clear purpose and utilitarianism, but lack effective management skills.

This seemed incredible to Xiuyi.

How to guide the masses without clear doctrines, holy objects, and clear ideas?

The answer Xiu Yi finally found is: magic.

Any society will develop its own unique civilization based on its own characteristics. A society with magic will inevitably use magic rather than civilization to make various means.

Promoting and promoting religion is no longer based on strict and orderly doctrines and inciting speeches, but on the arrival of miracles and the influence of magic.

When he was in Xiangye City, Xiuyi saw a sacred knight using the spell of "clearing filth" on himself. At that time, he felt a strange breath: Why is this spell like soul spells, able to affect people's body and mind. These effects are harmless and beneficial to people, but they can affect people's consciousness and make people admire their designated goals.

Although this influence is positive and pleasant, the consequences are to make people believe and worship it.

Therefore, during the research and discussion during that period, Xiu Yi quickly came to a conclusion, which was also a very terrible conclusion: the divine magic actually hidden some characteristics of soul spells, which can affect human will. It is precisely through this spell that the Holy Spirit Church can unscrupulously promote their religion, make people accept it, and willingly worship it.

In contrast, the Scourge Church actually has similar methods, but it is not so hidden.

The sacred spell itself cannot have the means of soul spells, so Xiu Yi speculated that there must be some powerful figure who secretly modified the sacred spell, which is undoubtedly a huge innovation and invention. However, no matter how the sacred spell affects people's hearts, it is certain that it cannot be confronted with the real soul spell.

In other words, those who are influenced by divine magic and have since faithful in the church may also be able to be eliminated by the soul mage.

This is why the Holy Spirit Church firmly does not allow any soul mage to exist. They are afraid that the soul mage will discover their secrets and that the believers will be cleansed from the past.

This is a choice of interests and an inevitable product. After Xiu Yi came to this conclusion, he almost 100% affirmed that the fact must be like this.

Of course, a Shuyi Glair would not have any major impact on the popularization of doctrines in the entire Holy Spirit Church and absorbing believers. However, the problem is that Shuyi's identity as a soul wizard is open, and it will be difficult to convince the public without killing him.

This also makes it difficult for the Holy Spirit Church to make a decision.

That's why Xiu Yi said that the existence of playing with human will is actually the Holy Spirit Church.

Little Bill was shocked by this statement. Xiu Yi didn't care what others thought.

At this moment, when the Holy Spirit Church slaughtered soul mages because of this, and a burst of fire broke out in Xiu Yi's heart.

At this moment, in the church's grand square, the priest who preached had retreated, and the next was the moment of divine baptism.

The so-called sacred baptism is to cleanse the unclean thoughts in people's hearts, so that people can do good with all their hearts and avoid doing evil.

A bright pastor stood above, loudly chanting his eulogy to God.

He raised his hands high, and a sacred white light rose from the heart of his hand, rushed into the sky, and flashed into countless colorful rays of light.

These rays of light shine above the heads of believers, like a gentle breeze, blowing through the hearts of every believer, making people feel extremely comfortable.

Next, the brilliance in the sky became even brighter, forming countless stars and dots in the sky.

These star dots shine with star-like light, falling on the heads like raindrops, and disappearing in an instant. At the same time, every believer showed an intoxicated expression on his face.

However, these star dots did not all fall against believers, and some star dots fell on the tourists next to the square as if they were consciously.

Some tourists immediately exclaimed: "Oh, my God, I felt the breath of the gods. That sacred feeling..."

For a moment, countless tourists were shocked by this sacred baptism and knelt down to the high place of Pastor Light.

A few star dots also fell on Xiuyi.

Xiu Yi immediately felt a trace of soul energy breath entering his body, giving him an extremely comfortable feeling, as if it was intoxicating like a mouthful of heroin, but at the same time he could feel this huge sacred aura.

It's true!

Xiu Yi sneered.

Are these despicable guys using this method to perform the so-called sacred baptism and deceive believers?

No wonder they are so generous that they let tourists visit the Holy Baptist Day. Their real purpose is actually to let these tourists feel the greatness of the so-called "God"?

A baptism like this can not only strengthen the original believers' faith, but also attract more believers and promote the Holy Spirit Church.

The virtue of generosity can stand firm in this world for thousands of years and grow rapidly.

It is clearly a dark and corrupt rule, but it can still make countless people fall in love with it.

They are the real masters who play with the soul, experts who deceive matters, and a group of real and thorough charlatans!

Xiu Yi's heart was infuriated, and the aura that had penetrated into his body suddenly disappeared at the same time, and was integrated into the magic furnace inside his body.

At the same time, four terrifying words popped up in Xiu Yi's mouth: "Swallow...domain!"

A powerful devouring force field instantly enveloped the entire San Marino Cathedral.

The sky is covered with dark clouds, as if the end of the world is coming.

The article I just wrote mysteriously disappeared again, just like last time. After writing it, it didn't crash or shut down. Just put it in good condition, and it suddenly disappeared...

Completely dizzy.

Only rewrite once.

No checking either.

Oh shit.

anger!
