Chapter 5 Meeting God(1/3)

【1.1-At the beginning of the era, the gray fog was misty.】

【1.2-Dead silence fills the world, and the ice and cold freeze the seas.】

【1.3-The Lords drive away the silence and open up a new era.】

【1.4- Then, there is fire.】

[1.5-The fire burns, and wind is born. When the wind cools, water is born. When the water stagnates, it condenses soil. When the soil accumulates, it breeds fire.]

【1.6-The endless cycle is the initial soul.】

【1.7-The Lords create all things from the fog through the initial soul.】

【1.8-Under your own image, use the soul of the land to create humans, which is for all races.】

[1.9-The Lord of Fire is given to the soul. The Lord of Wind is given to the bone. The Lord of Judgment is given to the blood.]

【1.10- Finally, and give this world to us.】

【Discipline, New Era】

Early in the morning.

Next to the quietly burning light golden elemental lamp stove, a gray-haired and tall man was sitting at the table reading a thick iron scripture.

He was wearing a priest robe with white background and gold patterns, with obvious wrinkles on the corners of his eyes and mouth, but even though his appearance is a bit old, it does not prevent him from seeing the man's heroic spirit when he was young.

"Click."

Suddenly, he closed the iron convention in his hand and made a loud metal collision sound.

The man raised his head, and his blue eyes, like the sky, were cast toward the coast of Xiguang City outside the window beside him, and the dark clouds that had begun to spread in the sky.

"There are clouds and winds, it's not suitable to go to sea today...but I still want to go."

The priest murmured to himself like this. He stood up, then picked up the heavy holy book on the table, hung it around his waist, locked it with iron chains, and made another "click" sound of gold and iron collision.

The priests are not allowed to carry swords, swords, guns, etc. with sharp blades, sharp bulges, etc. that can easily damage other people's structures. In fact, even if it is a cube knife, the priests will only use a safe cube knife with only half of the zigzags on the side.

Because the Lords love everyone, they made various "vows", one of which is that the priests who restrained them were not allowed to use weapons and props made to harm others, nor were they allowed to take the initiative to initiate any battles, and could only conduct self-defense.

Similarly, no matter what reason or anyone attacks the priest, it is a serious crime, unless the priest takes the initiative to break the "vow" and takes the lead in launching the attack.

However, it is too late to find the right weapon when the priest needs self-defense... and the Iron Contract specially created for this is a good self-defense weapon.

The general teachings contain five notes and seventeen books, a total of 1,900 pages, weighing nine kilograms.

It is thick and strong, and can be used as a shield defense, as well as a chain, and used as a meteor hammer.

While strengthening faith, the sacrificial treaties can also strengthen personal safety. They are essential props for most priests to travel at home and preach and defend themselves.

At this time, the gray-haired priest had made all his travel preparations. He extinguished the elemental lamp beside him, silently folded his hands in the darkness, and made a simple prayer.

Now, Aimun will go out to sea to go to the sea where the miracle appeared last night to worship the gods he truly believed in.

"Hello, Lord Aimmon, are you going out so early? Are you going to worship God?"

Leaving the room and going down the stairs, Aimon met the hotel owner who was cleaning at the door, an old man with some white scales on his arm and gray hair.

He raised his head and looked at the fully armed priest in surprise, as if he was going to fight against pirates. He lowered his head slightly and whispered: "Glory my Lord, and I will judge justice and wish you a smooth journey."

"Glory our Lord and judge justice. Thank you for your blessing."

Aimeng bowed politely to the elder, then took out a small bag of silver coins from his arms and handed them to the other party: "It will take some time to go out to sea. Please help me keep my room and don't let others enter, it's trouble."

"It should be that your room will be kept for you." The elderly boss put down his broom and accepted the silver coins. He narrowed his eyes and counted a small half of it, and then wanted to hand back to Aimun's hand: "We are fellow citizens, you are also the priest of my Lord, and we should not accept so much."

"If you are a compatriot, you should not be so polite."

With his hands behind him, Aimon smiled gently. Instead of taking over his purse, he turned around and left and walked out of the hotel gate.

"Why!"

The boss wanted to catch up, but his legs were really inconvenient. When he walked out of the hotel door, Aimon's tall figure had disappeared from the corner of the street leading to the port, not in the darkness in the early morning.

Now that things have come to this, the boss can only accept this bag of silver coins. He returned to the hotel with a little sadness, continued to clean, and murmured to himself: "If I weren't really old, I would also like to witness the miracles of my Lord..."

"I can only hope that Lord Emmon will go well."

At this time, walking on the street leading to the port, Ai Meng breathed the salty smell of the sea and felt the special atmosphere of the port city of Xiguang City.

Before dawn, many people in the city started working. Dock workers and fishermen were in a hurry and were preparing for today's sailing time to fall. If you don't take advantage of this time, you will have to spend several times the effort.

But today, many people who are not workers and fishermen are also walking on the way to the port.

The elemental lights by the road flashed dimly, illuminating the bustling crowds. They stepped on the streets paved with gray rocks, mostly fully armed and excited, and greeted each other when they met.

Aimon was no exception. Most people knew him, the priest, and saluted him. Aimon also responded one by one with a smile on his face.

If you have a keen look, you can notice that there are traces of white scales on these people's bodies.

The core residents of the Holy Fire Kingdom are the people of fire. That is, life with the soul of fire, the bone of wind, and the blood of judgment.

Most people of fire are human-shaped, but some of them have white scales on some parts of the body, or their eyes appear dragon eyes, which are symbols of the blood of judgment.

There are also some parts of the body that have exoskeletons, which is highly likely that their ancestors have been favored by the Lord of Wind or descendants of those who intermarried with the people of Wind.

Those with this abnormal characteristic have a closer relationship with each other than ordinary fire people. They will be called compatriots to each other, just like Aimmon and the hotel owner, and they are more inclined to believe in gods related to their own signs.

Yesterday evening, at the height of the tide, everyone in Xiguang City saw the holy marks of the Gods descending in the distance. This was simply a supreme good news for the believers of the Lord of Judgment. Going out to sea to approach the area where the Gods descending appeared is something that everyone wants to do.

Of course, this is just a feature. They are all fire people. Even if they have an exoskeleton, they are just fire people with the characteristics of wind people. These are two completely different races.

The difference between the people of fire and the people of wind is mainly lies in whether the bones are inside or outside, but no matter which race they are, they all respect the three gods together, but the Lord of Fire and the Lord of Wind are the Lord of their people.

However, there are very few people of the wind on the Holy Fire Continent.

It is recorded in the "Farewell" chapter of the "New Era" of the Divine Covenant that after the three gods worked together to create a new era, the Lord of Wind took most of the people of Wind and a small number of people of Fire to another continent.

Then the people of fire ignited the holy fire in the city of the Holy Fire and set the first year of the new era elemental calendar.

It was then two hundred years later that people crossed the sea of ​​ecstasy and discovered the country of the people of the New World and the Wind, proving the authenticity of the records of the "Doctave".

In the Kingdom of the Holy Fire, everyone is a believer of the Lord of Fire.

They worship the flame that was lit at the beginning of the new era, and believe that it is a symbol of all development.

Whether it is the holy fire that guides the ships in each port, or the central holy fire burning in the Grand Temple of the Central Holy Hall, it is burning in order to guide people to live on the right path.

However, because everyone is a believer, this has become a kind of culture. In addition to the Lord of Fire, people will also believe in the Lord of Wind and the Lord of Judgment respectively.

Most of the believers of Lord of Wind are scouts, adventurers, explorers, weird inventors, etc.

Most of the believers of the Lord of Judgment are judges, defense lawyers, wandering judges, and sheriffs.

Only those who are truly knowledgeable can believe in the three Gods at the same time, which represents the supreme glory and are favored by the three Lords at the same time.

Only those who are recognized by three gods at the same time can become the leader of a town and the priest above the priest. This is a rigid requirement.

And Aimun is the believer of the Lord of Judgment, a judge of the priest.

His blue pupils and a little white phosphorus behind his ears are the proof of the manifestation of the bloodline of the Lord of Judgment. When Aimeng is excited, his pupils will even be converted into dragon eyes, which is also an extremely rare feature among the believers of the Lord of Judgment.

In addition to his job as a priest, he also worked as a part-time professional defense lawyer and a wandering ruling officer. In short, he was to defend people and provide services to judge and judge criminals for the suburban residents who were unable to go to the court.

This time he came to Xiguang City, because a few days ago, an elite pirate fleet raided the temple here.

A total of three large pirate ships joined forces to raid the temple of Xiguang City. They broke through the temple defense and seized the fragments of the source water soul preserved therein. However, because they were afraid of the divine punishment of the Lord of Judgment, they did not kill anyone after completing the mission and returned to the sea.

The Central Temple believed that this raid was too suspicious, and the pirates who had the opportunity to raid the temple were really the priests of the priest Gro. At that time, they went to the suburbs to comfort the local farmers who were not harvested due to heavy snow. They took more than half of the priests and extraordinary people from the entire temple, so that in the face of the attack of the pirates, the empty Xiguang Temple had no power to fight back.

So the temple sent Aimon to investigate the situation and verify whether there were traitors and informants inside the temple.

"... Since the rebellion that has been over a hundred years ago, heresy has spread more and more widely, and even the inside of the temple is no longer 100% pious."

Recalling his mission, Aimon couldn't help but sigh. While checking whether he had all the preparation items on him, he looked at the dark sea in the distance, and was worried and confused in his heart: "But the Lords have been silent and never answered, allowing these lies to fill the world."

“Why?”

With such doubts, he had arrived at the port of Xiguang City.

Xiguangcheng Port is classically shaped and is made up of large pieces of rock. Most of them are the foundations set by explorers of the first wave of the city of the Holy Fire three hundred years ago. They used stone pillars that were difficult to corrode in the sea to support docks and docks, and artificially built dams to keep the harbor calm.

Next to the port, there is a towering temple standing on a protruding coastline. This temple has a huge dome design and bell tower, which looks majestic but can be seen. There is an extremely obvious semicircular gap on the side of the temple. Although it has been filled most of it, the traces of its destruction are still very obvious.

That was the traces left by the pirates who seized the fragments of the Source Water Soul a few months ago.

The fragments of the Soul of Source Water are a strange thing that will appear randomly in certain secret realms of the sea.

It has a crystal-like sea urchin shape and has soft spikes. If someone eats it, it will vary from person to person, with various special water-related superpowers.

However, let’s not talk about the rumors that the smell of the fragments of the Soul of Source Water will cause shock... After eating the fragments of Source Water, the devourer will lose all his power and even his life as long as he leaves the sea for a long time.

So even if the Holy Fire Temple collects it, it simply uses the power of this fragment to warn of the storm at sea and the direction of fish, and will not really use it.

In the mouths of the pirates, the fragments of the Source Water Soul are the only fragments derived from the "Water Soul" left by the Lords among the four initial souls, which are different from the Holy Fire Temple. They have been chasing the power of these fragments.

Speaking of this, the subsequent content of the "Doctave New Era" is involved.

Legend has it that the Lords used the "soul of the earth" to create the bodies of the tribes, and then used the "soul of fire" to give the earth body life and soul vitality. Finally, they used the "soul of wind" to make their thinking work, gain wisdom, and be able to move.

When the three souls are united, people will turn from soil to life. In this process, the gods do not use the "soul of water", so they stay in place and finally turn into the current seven seas.

Because there is no power of the soul of water in the body, everything in this world will feel thirsty and need water to continue to survive.
To be continued...
