Chapter 41:40: God’s Blessing (Please Read)
January 311, 1 of the New Divine Calendar, the day of Divine Grace.

The weather was not very good that day. The winter wind was howling and it was unusually cold. The sky was covered with heavy dark clouds and it seemed like it was going to rain.

Luo Yi didn't feel anything about this Grace Festival, so he didn't even change his daily routine.

I got up early in the morning, practiced the [Cheetah Breathing Method·Accumulation] for a while, and stretched my body in the training room on the first floor, waiting for Mrs. Cassidy's breakfast.

Only at this moment, he felt the difference in the atmosphere.

Not only was the breakfast prepared by the little old lady exceptionally sumptuous, but also cheerful voices could be heard coming from outside, and one could faintly hear the sound of musical instruments playing.

He took the food and walked to the window, and saw a crowd of people outside, all wearing new clothes, singing and dancing, and rejoicing.

There were countless children, running around in groups.

From time to time they would knock on the residents' doors, but the residents would not get angry and would instead give them some candy or snacks.

The whole city of Auckland seemed to have never been so relaxed as it was today. Even the cold weather could not extinguish everyone's enthusiasm.

After having breakfast, Luo Yi continued to train as planned, sweating profusely on the first floor.

Oliveira accompanied him and did all the necessary training, but he seemed a little absent-minded.

Roy didn't expect that a cold-blooded warrior like Oliveira would be attracted by a festival?

However, when this thought came to his mind, he realized that it was not just the other person who was distracted, he was also distracted.

The morning's training was still completed without any laziness.

After the high-intensity training, Luo Yi took another medicinal bath, which took an hour, and his physical strength was restored.

Then, Roy took Oliveira out of the house and began to enjoy the festive atmosphere and happiness.

They walked along the street and turned a few corners until they reached the main street.

The main streets of Auckland City start from the four city gates. They are straight and wide and intersect at the center.

It is the center of the city, where the government hall is located, and Auckland's largest square, El Fate Square.

The earliest record of Oakland City was that the Marquis family accepted the king's order and led 30,000 people here to drive out monsters, kill evil, and build a city.

The original Marquis Knight was named El Fate Marquis, and the square was named after him.

However, the Marquis family today is no longer the most loyal knights of the Hohenzollern, but the two sides hate each other and fight endlessly.

In the center of the square, there is a three-meter-high sculpture made of brass, showing a heroic knight riding a horse, holding a spear, and charging forward.

The base of the sculpture is engraved with names. They are the knights who sacrificed their lives on the road of development and the pioneers of mankind. They are worthy of being admired and remembered by future generations.

On the right side of the square, next to the Government Hall, there is a new high-rise building. It was built not many years ago and is a typical Gothic building.

There are tall spires, exquisite flying buttresses, and colorful glass windows.

This is where the Seven Gods Bank is located!
At the top of the bank, there is a huge mechanical clock that is powered by magic and can tell time to the second.

Big Ben, along with the iconic buildings of the Seven Banks spread across the Habsburg Empire, has become a part of everyone's daily life!

This is Roy and Oliveira's destination, or rather, this is the destination of most people.

It is worth mentioning that they walked along the main street, joined the flow of people, and inevitably passed by the church area.

Perhaps due to competition, these churches are all built in one place, and each building has its own characteristics and splendor.

However, today the gate of the Church of the Sun God was closed, and there was not a single person around, which made the place look quite desolate.

The Habsburg Empire has the Seven Gods as its state religion, but that doesn't mean other churches are not allowed to exist.

The Sun God Cult seems to be declining and unpopular due to the overt or covert suppression from the upper class, but it still has a large market among the lower classes.

After all, it is a sect that unified the Old World. It is powerful and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even the Hohenzollern family only dares to target it secretly.

In comparison, although the Temple of the Seven Gods is not as grand and majestic, they each have their own characteristics.

The temple of Mystra, the goddess of magic, seems to be shrouded in mystery and is unpredictable.

The temple of Azuth, the god of mages, seems to contain endless mysteries. At first glance, one can't help but be deeply immersed in it.

The temple of Denair, the god of literature and art, is full of romance and is surrounded by young boys and girls. The temple of Shanda Kol, the wandering god, is full of green plants and countless farmers are worshiping.

The temple of Woking, the goddess of trade and wealth, is the most popular among merchants and is built in a magnificent manner.

The temple of Miriel, the god of singing, is filled with beautiful music that can move people's hearts, reach the depths of their souls, and make them cry.

There is also the temple of Torm, the god of justice. It is majestic and solemn, and represents justice and fairness. It is the faith in the hearts of judges and knights, and a holy place on earth.

Today, the seven temples are emitting divine light that is visible to the naked eye. Although it is not strong, it can be considered a miracle.

In front of the temple, there were priests preaching doctrines, and countless people praying devoutly and praising the gods.

When Roy and Oliveira arrived, the prayer had just ended. The priests of the Seven Gods lined up in a long queue and began to march towards Elfat Square.

Behind them, there were huge crowds of believers following, so dense that they were hard to count.

Luo Yi felt a little regretful. There were really too many people, so many that it seemed as if everyone in the city had come here.

He was forced to move forward and follow until he reached his destination, El Fate Square.

When they arrived, the priests had already arrived. They were surrounding a huge pile of wood, kneeling on one knee, with their hands clasped, praying devoutly.

The seven priests each had their own prayers, which seemed very chaotic, but they responded to each other, so that their voices became louder and louder.

A faint wave spread outward, and Luo Yi noticed something unusual. He narrowed his eyes slightly and sensed it carefully.

It's a pity that his [Perception] attribute is not high, and he only sensed something but couldn't tell it clearly.

Then, he looked around again, and everyone, yes everyone, was kneeling on the ground.

They clasped their hands together, placed them on their hearts, bowed their heads, and prayed devoutly.

The vague fluctuations became more and more obvious, and under the guidance of the priest, they finally underwent a qualitative change.

Then, a colorful beam of light rose into the sky and shone into the thick leaden clouds.

Then, the leaden clouds dissipated, the light bloomed, and endless divine light spread over the earth and shone on people, dispelling the winter cold and warming the body and mind.

Just in that endless light, a huge figure seemed to flap its wings and fly out.

He has a pair of pure white feathers, wears armor that radiates light, and is so handsome that he does not seem like an ordinary person.

He raised his hands high, showing his strong body, and on his shoulders was a bottle that was so exquisite that it was almost dazzling.

Is this, an angel?
At this moment, Luo Yi was stunned. He stared at the sky blankly and thought that there was something wrong with his eyes.

But at this moment, the angel seemed to notice his gaze, lowered his head slightly, and looked over here with a pair of golden eyes.

It was at this moment that Oliveira discovered something wrong and slapped Loy on the knee.

Luo Yi's knees went weak and he fell to the ground, banging his head on the ground, appearing very pious.

The Holy Bottle Angel's gaze swept across the earth, and he thought it was an illusion, so he retracted his gaze and bent his body slightly again.

The holy bottle on his shoulder slowly tilted, and rich holy water spilled out like a waterfall falling from the sky.

When the holy water fell, it turned into a drizzle in the air and fell to the ground, clearing away all the filth;

It fell on the plants, and the dead grass began to sprout;
Falling into the wind, the coldness receded and a hint of warmth appeared.

The most important thing is that when it falls on people, it is like the sowing of sweet rain, which relieves their pain, brings peace of mind, and makes the body clear inside and out.

Even Luo Yi could feel the changes in his body.

The resistance accumulated from excessive use of potions and the hidden injuries that have not been fully repaired after high-intensity training are all being repaired under the nourishment of holy water.

At this moment, information flashed through Luo Yi's mind.

The one in heaven is the Holy Bottle Angel recorded in the Seven Gods Canon, who has a name and surname and is responsible for bestowing blessings.

We have arrived here because the piety of the people of Auckland has moved the gods, who have bestowed their blessings upon us!

At this moment, even Luo Yi, the non-believer who had awakened his wisdom, felt deep respect and fear for the power of the new god!

　In the world I want to depict, since magic is real, gods are naturally real too!
