Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 177 This is a secret
"Mr. Star, do you have any instructions now?"

Star turned his head and saw the senior deacon of the Church of Night, Krestai, quietly appearing behind him.

He curled his lips and said teasingly with a rare sense of pleasure:
"Sir Krestai, how dare I? After all, I am still a 'God's Blessed One' whose origins are unknown and yet to be verified."

"Saying you're giving me orders is a bit too much."

"You're too kind." Krestai felt a little embarrassed.

Although he didn't know why an informant under the church suddenly became one of the few "God's Favored Ones" in the entire Church of Night.

If anyone else had said this to him, Krestey would have suspected that person was crazy.

However, with the "Holy Emblem of Night" that was suspected to be bestowed by the goddess herself, and the news that the headquarters of the Church of the Goddess of Night, the "Church of Tranquility" in Winter County in the north of the kingdom, had sent the message - the goddess had already sent down an oracle.

Now it is completely certain that the person in front of me is indeed the goddess's favorite.

As for what the goddess is thinking, it’s better not to even think about it.

Since its founding, the entire Church of Night has ultimately been serving the Goddess.

This is also the power structure of this society with such extraordinary powers as gods.

Their power has reached the top of the world, and they need an anchor.

As a result, the influence of the church he founded has permeated every aspect of the entire continent.

Just like Klein thought, Star also knew that if he wanted to repeat the old methods in this alien world at this time, it might not work...

What's more, there is a more pressing crisis here - there is a group of outer gods outside the barrier who are coveting this place.

“So-called external contradictions are greater than internal contradictions?”

Star muttered to himself.

Fortunately, he had been doing this with the idea of ​​uniting forces from the beginning, and did not make enemies indiscriminately. Until now, he does not have to worry about any backlash from the church.

In other words, there was no excessive pressure from the church.

Because as a person favored by God, he still has a mission to accomplish.

……

When Sta first saw the exclusive badge belonging to the Church of Evernight, he was really confused.

Is this really delivered to your door?
But why not say hello before leaving?
If you ask whether Star would feel uneasy when facing a true God who could easily wipe him out from the world, he would definitely feel uneasy.

Even though he actually has "Between Reality and Illusion" as the ultimate deterrent, Star is still worried that he will be dealt with in other ways.

For example, like a certain "rap master" who was sealed in the God-forsaken Land and unable to leave.

For example, being banished to an unreachable place like "Mr. Door".

At that time, should he drag the entire world to be destroyed together, or should he drag the entire world to be destroyed together, or should he drag the entire world to be destroyed together?

Just kidding…

If it really comes to this, maybe Star will stop being picky and just let "Between Reality and Illusion" run wild.

Of course, in addition to the above options.

Maybe there are other variables?

Fortunately, we are facing a formidable enemy, the end of the world is approaching, and we are all from the same hometown.

Noticing that Star's goddess chose to win over.

He just didn't know the specific reason why he was chosen to become the "God's Favored One", so Sta was still prepared to consult the goddess through a ritual.

After all, the goddess even invested in Xiao Ke, but she didn't intend to let him rely too much on the channels of the church. Why did she give him a "Night Badge" personally when she came to her?
You can't be thinking that there is nothing suitable for investment here, right?
It would be fine to give him the extraordinary materials needed to upgrade to Sequence 5...

So when Star got the "Holy Emblem of the Night", he arranged a ceremony on the spot -

Now that they have become the ones favored by the gods, it is reasonable for them to have exclusive communication channels with the goddess, right?

Soon, in front of Klein's half-dead body, Star created a spiritual wall and chanted in ancient Hermetic language:
"The goddess of night, higher than the stars, and older than eternity."

"You are the Lord of Crimson, the Mother of Secrets."

"You are the queen of misfortune and terror, the lord of sleep and silence."

"I pray for your response and for your guidance on what I should do next."

After all, facing Him who had become a god, Star chanted according to the usual rituals.

After all, this is not the kind of person that looks like "Mr. Fool".

He is a genuine god with real influence. If you want to build a relationship with him, you have to be respectful...

After silently reciting the spell and lighting the corresponding three candles, Star then dripped a drop of "full moon essential oil" symbolizing the goddess onto each of the three candles.

Then, Star threw in moonflowers, deep-sleeping flowers and other herbs as offerings for the ceremony.

Although it is possible to consume it with one's own spiritual energy, it is obviously better not to simplify everything on your own at this time.

So at the end of the ceremony, in the howling wind, the ashes of the burning herbs rose up and fell onto the parchment paper on the blank space of the altar, outlining one word after another:
"Change is allowed, but it cannot involve faith. Be aware that the end is near."

After seeing the official response from the Goddess of Night, Sta’s heart finally settled down.

It’s good to have requirements. If you don’t, I don’t know what price you will have to pay for this gift of fate in the future.

You can't let yourself not think about the uniqueness of the God of Death and the "River of Eternal Darkness"...

Anyway, Star had no intention of considering these two things to fill the appetite of "between reality and fiction" in "the path of tampering"...

Star had no surprise at the goddess' instructions.

The meaning of this is also easy to understand -

After using abilities such as "empathy" and "channel" with the help of "Between Reality and Virtuality", Star vaguely felt that his actions might have caused something in the ocean of subconsciousness.

The anchor required to combine faith is itself a kind of pollution to balance and reconcile divinity. Perhaps such actions of mine have really allowed this pollution to be further mixed in?
Should I be happy about this, or should I be worried?
Forget it. Now that I have the identity of "God's Blessed One" in the Church of Evernight, I don't have to think so much.

Indeed, in this doomsday context, if you want to make a fuss, you have to use different ways.

There is not just one means to achieve an end.

Moreover, looking at the "Holy Emblem of the Night" in his hand, Sta felt that he seemed more confident in helping Xiao Ke deal with his family-related issues next?
……

So there was the scene where Benson and Melissa were "brainwashed" by Star, and there was the scene where Captain Dunn and Leonard were told by Krestel to change their words...

In short, what Klein would think afterwards was not within Star's consideration.

Star had done his best to help him get over it, and even admitted in front of Crestai that the information Klein had previously provided about the Aurora Society came from him.

But Krestai didn't understand something, so he asked:
“Mr. Star, I wonder why you let the church handle Klein’s affairs in this way?”

Sta wanted to say, "It's normal that there is actually two people favored by God, although one of them appears on the surface." However, due to Xiao Ke's identity, there is no need to reveal it for the time being.

Star raised his head, put on a gentle smile, and said in a gentle voice:

“It’s secret.”
