Wizard: Surviving in the Steam Age with Points for Demon Hunter

Chapter 91 Try it and die!

Outside the gate of the Department of Secrets, a gorgeous ceremony platform was specially built. The platform was covered with silk embroidered with the symbols of the Church of Dawn, which looked gorgeous and sacred.

The ceremonial stage was surrounded by people who were watching the ceremony. They were officials of the Custer city-state council, nobles and commoners. Most of their expressions were full of enthusiasm and anticipation.

"...Thank you again for coming, and I invite the candidate for the Saintess of the Church of Dawn—Miss Carly Morris!"

fuck,
When Wei En heard the concluding remarks of Harrington, Deputy Speaker of the Custer City Council, his mood suddenly changed.

Shouldn't the identity of the saintess candidate be extremely secretive, something that needs to be kept secret?
Why would it be announced to everyone?

In this way, the fact that he passed the wrong information to the liaison officer will be exposed?
Really...

But at this time, maybe he was the only one in a bad mood. Most of the believers who were saluting outside had already become extremely fanatical, and they kept shouting: "Praise the dawn, saint Kali..."

As the melodious hymn of Dawn Church sounded, these people suddenly became quiet again, becoming solemn and solemn, as if the previous enthusiasm was just a kind of praise.

At this time, a gorgeous carriage slowly drove into the Natoli block and stopped in front of the ceremony stage.

The flag representing the Church of Dawn was hung on the carriage, the door opened, and Carly Morris stepped down slowly.

She was wearing a gorgeous white dress with golden patterns dotted on it, which brought out her nobility and holiness.

On her head was a magnificent crown, inlaid with the emblem of the Church of the Dawn made of precious stones, shining brightly.

[Because your spiritual level is greater than 40, you have successfully resisted the erosion of the power of dawn faith.Evaluation: Be careful... Special Reward: Survival Point +5, Spirit Level +1. 】

Wei En's heart shuddered. The panel gave him the evaluation of being careful?

Beware of what and who?
Is there a problem with the power of dawn faith?
But at this time, he didn't dare to move at all, because of his position - not far from the edge of the ceremony stage.

According to the notice issued by the senior officials of the Secret Investigation Department, he will follow Lacey and others to the ceremony stage, waiting to welcome Carly.

Not only that, but Bishop Andrews will also send his blessings to them at that time.

"What's the matter, Wayne?" Lacey next to him noticed his change, and said in a low voice, "Persist a little longer, the ceremony will be over when we get off the stage."

"Ah."

Wei En didn't dare to say more, the ceremony platform was surrounded by people from the Church of Dawn and the Department of Secrets, as well as high-level executives from the city-state of Custer, as well as... guards.

Among these people, there are many powerful extraordinary people.

Even before he came to the ceremony stage, the screen on the panel was already frantically refreshed. There were hundreds of mental perception scans alone.

Although this brought him a lot of survival points, it also showed that in such an occasion, there must be no abnormal behavior, otherwise the end will be miserable...

"Welcome to the Church of the Dawn, the City-State of Castor, Bishop Andrews Herzog, and Ales Coulibaly, Director of the Department of Mystery Investigations of the City-State of Castor..."

As Carly stepped onto the stage, Deputy Speaker Harrington loudly invited the two protagonists, Ales and Andrews, to come to the stage to bless her together.

It also represents the grandest part of the welcoming ceremony.

"The night will pass, but the dawn will last forever."

"May the light of the Lord of the Dawn shine on the world forever, and may everything be beautiful in the world..."

The clergy guarding around the ceremony stand bowed their heads and chanted hymns, and the dawn light on their bodies began to rise, like light bulbs one by one.

And farther away, those dawn believers who held the covenant also sang along.

It seems that this is not a welcome ceremony, but a grand ceremony to celebrate the dawn held by the Church of Dawn...

[Because your spiritual level is greater than 60, you successfully resisted the erosion of the power of dawn faith.Evaluation: Faith is gathering and rituals are going on.Special reward: survival point +10, spirit level +1. 】

[Because your spiritual level is greater than 80, you have successfully resisted the erosion of the power of dawn faith, evaluation: be careful, his eyes are coming.Special rewards: Survival Point +10, Spirit Level +1, Resilience Level +1. 】

Him? ?

The ominous premonition in Wei En's heart was even stronger. Could it be Orpheus, the lord of dawn, who was mentioned on the panel?
If Orpheus really came over, I'm afraid there will be a major change in this welcome ceremony.

At this moment, after accepting the blessing, Carly turned to look at the audience, her eyes were clear, and she said gently: "Praise the dawn, thank you..."

Following her words, a holy light bloomed on her body.

[You are in the place where Dawn Faith is housed. Because your spiritual level is greater than 100, you have successfully resisted the erosion of Dawn Faith.Special rewards: Survival Point +15, Spirit Level +2, Resilience Level +2. 】

【…】

Has it formed a place for faith storage?
At this time, the people closest to Kali, whether it was the secret investigation department, the city guards, or the nobles, all had more or less devout expressions on their faces.

Even Carly and the others next to Wayne began to show changes on their faces...

"enough!"

A loud shout sounded from the ceremony stage, interrupting Carly's chanting, and at the same time, the dawn light on her stagnated.

Everyone in the audience couldn't help being stunned, especially those Dawn believers whose eyes gradually became fanatical, and looked at the spoiler with eyes full of hatred.

Ok?
Bishop Andrews on the stage, Harrington, deputy speaker of the parliament, and many prominent nobles and high-level city-states all looked at the person who interrupted the speech of the alternate saint—Ales Coulibaly.

"Ales, you..."

"Andrews, the welcome ceremony is not a grand ceremony of your Dawn Church,"

Ales' eyes were cold, and he pressed down on Carly with a mountain-like momentum, "It's not an occasion for you to promote your faith, understand?"

Andrews' face darkened, "Ales, are you sure you want to stop..."

"You're wrong," Ales raised his hand to interrupt him, "I'm already blocking it!"

Carly looked flustered and looked at them blankly, wondering what she did wrong?

The other people on the stage were even more at a loss. They all knew Ales' temper, and they thought today was just a cutscene, but they didn't expect this one to even be unwilling to cooperate with the cutscene?

"Ales, um, can you finish the ceremony first?"

Among the people present, only Harrington, the deputy speaker representing the city-state council, had the highest status. He organized his vocabulary carefully: "Today, almost half of the people from the city-state have come. You are like this..."

"Finished? Hmph!"

Ales stepped forward, passed Carly, and faced everyone in the audience, "I announce that the celebration is over, and the secret department welcomes Miss Carly very much."

"At the same time, we will do our best to eradicate the heretics and people with bad intentions hidden in the city-state."

"With that, thank you all for coming!"

After finishing speaking, he didn't care what other people's attitudes were, and went straight to the audience.

And when passing by the secret tuners, his cold voice continued: "The celebration is over, what are you still doing here?"

"If you feel free, there are many guys in the detention area who can provide you with fun..."

"What the Director-General said is, ministers, take your people back."

Deputy Director Balazs took his words with a headache on his face, and waved his hand to signal them to leave quickly, otherwise something even more terrifying will happen.

On the other hand, the other high-level officials of the Secret Investigation Department and the ministers of the various departments seemed to be familiar with it. This is what a director should look like.

Before I honestly agreed to participate in this celebration, it was obvious that the director's brain was short-circuited...

Seeing this, Wei En couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief. The more serious evaluation content on the panel just now scared me to death.

If Ales hadn't interrupted, I'm afraid that person would really cast his gaze over.

[The power of dawn faith dissipates.Evaluation: Fortunately, you are still you.Special reward: survival point +1, source +1. 】

I should really be glad...

But when it's so dangerous, why don't you just give 1 survival point, isn't it too inappropriate?

"Let's go."

Lacey took one last look at Carly on the stage, shook her head and said, "It seems that our new colleague's induction ceremony is a bit bumpy."

Marco said sympathetically: "Indeed, but she is so beautiful, she shouldn't..."

boom,
"Focus on the business!" Wei En took Tina's hand and left with her.

Lacey and the others didn't know the reason for Ales' interruption, but he knew it very well.

That is to prevent the arrival of Dawn's holy family, and it is to save countless non-Dawn believers.

Therefore, he has no sympathy for Carly.

Just like what was said on the panel, if things are allowed to go on, maybe he is not him now...

As for Carly, who is the bishop of the ceremony, what role she will play in it is also not what he cares about now.

What he cared more about was—there must be something more important hidden behind this celebration!
After all the members of the Secret Research Department left, the welcome ceremony specially held for Carly could only be hastily ended.

Deputy Speaker Harrington announced with a little apology: "Thank you very much for coming. Under the light of dawn, I hope that Your Excellency Carly will have a pleasant time in the Secret Research Department."

"At the same time, we also wish her success in becoming one of the saints of the Church of Dawn. I will invite Bishop Andrews..."

Andrews' complexion has returned to his former peace, as if the departure of Ales and others just now was just a small episode.

After speaking the formula-like words of blessing in an unusually calm manner, he directed the priests belonging to the church to lead the surrounding believers to leave.

"What is this? How could the great dawn be bullied by such a vulgar ominous person?"

"That's right, we're going to punish him!"

"Yes, you can't let him go like this..."

These fanatical believers felt humiliated.

The feeling that they had already felt the call of dawn and were expecting the arrival of the Holy Family, but were suddenly interrupted made each of them very angry.

But no matter what they said, those around who were not Dawn believers left the scene in a happy mood.

"I knew that Alis Coulibaly hated the church so much, why would he watch them jumping around in front of him, as expected..."

"That's right, I'm really happy to see such a scene, haha..."

There are also many people with heavy expressions on their faces, thinking about the subsequent impact of this incident, "I'm afraid the impact of today's incident will not be small."

"Well, that bishop is not a big-hearted man..."

"Go back first, this is not a place to talk, those people haven't left yet."

……

It has been two hours since the end of the celebration, but the chapel of the Krims Cathedral is still quiet and peaceful.

"Teacher, I'm sorry, I..."

Carly's expression was extremely depressed, and even the gorgeous dress she was wearing looked decadent.

"this is not your fault,"

Bishop Andrews comforted him gently: "You don't need to blame yourself, and don't be dissatisfied with what Ales did today. His temper has always been like this."

"But, I don't understand why he interrupted the ceremony?"

"It's probably a beautiful misunderstanding, trust me, it's not your fault."

Carly was still puzzled, but her personality has not been strong for a long time, so she just nodded, "Then, do I still need to go to the Secret Research Department?"

"certainly,"

Bishop Andrews turned to look at the statue of Dawn, "Follow the guidance of the Great Dawn, there are many lost people in the Secret Department who need your salvation."

"After you complete this task, it's time to go to Klander to take over the crown of the saint."

Carly nodded slightly, "Yeah."

"For us who are bathed in the brilliance, all difficulties and setbacks are nothing but tests for us. Only when you solve them can you get closer to the dawn."

"I know what to do, sir."

"Go, boy."

Carly bowed her head and turned to leave.

After a long time, Bishop Andrews looked at the statue with a calm expression, and said slowly, "The plan failed, what else do you have in mind?"

Melbell's figure quietly appeared, "It's gone."

"Just give up like that?"

Bishop Andrews looked at him, "Originally, I hoped that with the help of the Holy Family again, she would ascend to the position of saint, accept the crown of dawn, and guide more people to accept the baptism of dawn, but now..."

"It's just a matter of time," Melbell said calmly, "The fate has already turned a page, and no one can stop it."

"That's good……"

"This time, thank you for your help, leave the rest to me."

Andrews pursed his lips, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I hope you can take good care of her. She is really a devout believer."

"Well, I know this better than anyone else."

After finishing speaking, Melbell quietly disappeared, leaving only Andrews standing quietly in this place where Dawn paid attention.

……

But in the Secret Investigation Department, it seemed as if nothing had happened. Everyone performed their duties and did what they had to do.

It's just that from their whispered conversations from time to time, it's not difficult to find that they are all concerned about the scene that happened at the ceremony.

But these have nothing to do with Wei En, who was looking at Lacey with a headache at this moment.

Well, literally, the head hurts... His eyes and eye sockets were bruised, and his vision was blocked by swelling, and there were several bumps on his head.

"I'm very glad that you can take the initiative to invite me to fight."

Lacey stood opposite him with an excited face, without any weapon in his hands, just wearing a pair of gloves, "This will be a gladiatorial fight that you will never forget."

Wayne: "..."

What the hell, this is simply a monster in human skin.

Without being able to use a musket to attack, he has no way to cause damage to Lacey.

"Okay, the warm-up is over, I allow you to use the weapon, try again."

"you sure?"

"Of course, you wouldn't think that..."

bang, bang...

Before she could finish speaking, Wei En had already pulled out his musket and fired a series of bullets...

Try it and die!

You must not die, Miss Lacey!
　There are only two chapters today, eight thousand words.

　　Well, I have a fever... Gagen has to wait...

　　In addition, if the monthly pass reaches 300, add one more.
