Chapter 287 Huaiguang Cleric (23)

"There will be Moran steel in any maze and ruins... just how much."

Master Gesai glanced at Ian with subtle eyes. He obviously also thought of Ian's fairy blood, so after thinking for a while, he slowly said: "Why Morien Steel appeared is still a mystery so far. But a part can be found at the core of various high-level psionic fields, as well as in the center of various labyrinthine areas."

"It's not a real metal, but an extremely high-density source material polymer, similar to elemental crystals, but far stronger than elemental crystals. In the Royal Alchemy Association, artificially synthesized Moran steel has always been an important one. It is a big topic with continuous funding.

"Isn't it really metal..." Ian nodded thoughtfully. His spiritual premonition made him instinctively feel that this is a very important point, but he couldn't grasp the key.

But in the end, the boy still shook his head: "No matter how good things are, it won't matter if you don't kill the mother worm."

"really."

In fact, even Master Goser was obviously moved. Although this amount of Moraine Steel is not extremely rich, it is quite abundant and very attractive.

The old man sighed regretfully: "Living steel has a wide range of applications, from potions, alchemy, inscriptions, to industry, biology and astrology, it can all be used, so compared to fine gold and mithril The output is not low and quite stable, but it is still in short supply.

"By the way, Master Goser."

Hearing this, Ian suddenly thought of the old man's exclamation before, and he couldn't help asking curiously: "What you just said with emotion was the light of Huaiguang... Are you a believer in Huaiguang Church?"

Anyway, there is no opportunity for the time being. The flying flames in the distance are fighting with giant golden centipedes and parasitic beasts. It will probably take a while to decide the winner.

While waiting for the opportunity, he happened to ask this question that he was more interested in.

"How to say"

This question obviously caused Master Gesai to hesitate. He frowned, glanced at Isengard on one side, and then nodded slowly: "The late emperor cooperated with the Huaiguang Church to wipe out all the monsters between the Dark Mountain and the Holy Mountain. The lair, my hometown happens to be in that area... so it can't be said to be a belief, it's just a custom in my hometown."

"What is the teaching of Huaiguang Church?"

Ian is also a little curious. Although Huaiguang is the state religion in the Empire, and there is Huaiguang Church in Port Harrison, Mr. Hilliard has always been quite wary of Bishop Baiwu, so that Ian has gotten used to it over the years. Didn't make much contact with each other.

Of course, Ian himself is also very wary of Bishop Baiwu... The other party... is not like a normal human being at all. Both his thinking and emotions are stable like a machine, but he is a living flesh and blood body, and he is not like a normal human being. It is the transformation of one's own body and brain like the Spiritual Tool Church.

Even the precognitive horizon can't see the real emotion of the other party, or that deathly calm is his real emotion.

Ian felt that the reason why the teacher complained about the Huaiguang Church should be because the other party was clearly an ally of Inaiga II, but did not respond to the Dark Moon turmoil.

You must know that it was Inaiga II who single-handedly supported the Huaiguang Church to become the state religion of the empire, and it was he who introduced the Huaiguang Church to clean up thousands of small and pagan religions in the empire, making the Huaiguang Church the largest on the continent of Terra. Orthodoxy.

But the other party remained silent during the Dark Moon turmoil, and did not communicate with the imperial family again until the last keeper Axel succeeded to the throne.

For normal people, this is already considered a betrayalbut the strange thing is that when Ian asked Mr. Hilliard in this way, the other party never expressed his 'hate' towards Huaiguang Church.

"I don't like them freaks...but they're not really bad people," said the old knight, who didn't want to talk about it: "If you really need help, Huaiguang will help youthe problem is, they judge standards have never been comprehensible."

"They are such a group of freaks, a group of... unreasonable good people."

Oddly enough, Master Goser also made the same evaluation: "As long as you get along with them for a long time, you will know that although they are uncomfortable and don't pay attention to any friendship at all, they may be the only group in this world. A guy who can believe 100%."

"As for the teachings of Huaiguang Church, it is very simple."

"First, keep your feet on the ground and don't speak lies. Second, help the innocent and protect the weak. Third, be fearless and never give up. Fourth, earn your own living and never seek personal gain. And finally, fifth..."

"Protect all beings and preserve civilization."

After talking about the five teachings, Master Gosai sighed again: "It's very simple, right? Ordinary children can recite it. But the problem is that the simpler the teachings, the harder it is to follow, and they are not even widely spread among the public. Everyone says that the teaching of the Huaiguang Church is to be a good person and do good deeds, not to lie or to do evil, but no one will delve into the origin behind this.

"I'm ashamed to say that in my life, perhaps none of the five major doctrines have been fulfilled...but the priests of the Huaiguang Church can practice all of them."

Noticing the inconceivable look in Ian's eyes, the old man laughed: "It's incredible, right? But it's this kind of inconceivability that creates the miracle of Huaiguang."

"All their official clergymen are 'psychics'... and their psionic powers are very different from psionic powers in the general sense."

"Their psychic powers are formed by 'keeping an oath'. If it is said that ordinary people need the extreme heart of gifted people to awaken their psychic powers, then they have placed themselves in extreme vows from the very beginning. In turn, gain strength."

Ian nodded in shock, he was really surprised.

"So harsh? No, I can't do it just by lying. How does the Huaiguang Church train priests? Are they adopted from childhood?"

Ian thinks that he is not a saint in any sense. He is too smart, so he is used to using words to mislead and deceive others to seek his own personal gain. He will definitely not be a priest of glory.

But he was still very curious about such priests, so he asked.

"I know this!"

Isengard lowered his voice and replied with some joy: "No, the Huaiguang Church does not rely on adopting children to cultivate prieststhey go to the battlefield, or from the victims of various crimes, to rescue those' The dying wounded' and the 'dying victim', and from them grow the clergy!"

"They believe that such a person has already died once, has already realized the evils and virtues of the world, and is a newborn who is better than a newborn... But even so, not everyone can become a priest with light , Only those who can go to the holy mountain and receive baptism can call themselves priests and awaken spiritual power!"

Isengard knew this because he once had a familiar guard who was seriously injured after returning to his hometown in order to defend against the monsters that attacked the town. The monster that came down, and then rescued the guard, wanting to summon him.

The guard was also very willing, but unfortunately he did not meet the requirements, so he just returned to his hometown after recovering from his injury, and did not go to the holy mountain to be baptized.

Need to die once? this feeling...

After hearing this, Ian was a little taken aback.

Because, this seems to be somewhat similar to the process of awakening his psionic power after he retrieved the memory of his previous life.

But now is not the time to think about it.

Because, over time, opportunities start to arise.

On the other side of the rift valley, there was suddenly an unusually noisy sound of water and an extremely obvious dragging sound. The noisy insects resounded throughout the entire Worm Nest Canyon, causing everyone to look up and look to the other side.

buzz buzz...

Then, they saw a huge monster 'corpse' being slowly dragged from the other end of the river by dozens of various parasitic beasts.

"Tenglan Giant Eel?!"
