Chapter 42: 41: Riot (Seeking follow-up reading)
This blessing from God lasted for a full ten minutes and benefited tens of thousands of people in Auckland.
In the eyes of God, there is no distinction between high and low, nobles and commoners, at least the Seven Gods do not care.
Under the blessing of God, countless people wept bitterly and became more devout.
It is conceivable that after the Festival of Divine Grace, countless people changed their beliefs and began to follow the footsteps of the Seven Gods.
Only Luo Yi, even though he was kneeling there, was still feeling the divine power in his body. He patrolled with his fighting spirit and tested with deep blue. Only after he was sure that there was no danger at all did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Don't blame him for being cautious. After all, it's something he doesn't understand, so it's always right to be more cautious.
Then, he asked Shenlan to fetch a few books about gods and spirits and quickly reviewed them in his mind.
When the power of the gods is real, there will naturally be many concerns. Even in books, the descriptions of these great beings are mostly metaphorical.
It's secretive, or half-hidden. In short, it can't be said too clearly, and dare not be said too clearly.
Moreover, mortals can only get a glimpse of the affairs of gods, which makes it very mysterious.
In fact, many places just don't make sense.
In the world of Helka, gods have a long history of existence, especially in the Old World. In ancient times, it was a time of war among the gods.
The history of the Sun God's existence is too long to be verified, but there is no doubt that he is the ultimate winner of the war of gods in the Old World.
He even managed to expel other gods, and the human race he protected also expelled other intelligent creatures.
Today's Old World is basically dominated by humans. Even if there are other intelligent races, they all exist in the form of hybrids.
Such a sun god is powerful enough, right? He defeated many powerful beings in the war between gods.
But the problem is, the Seven Gods are here!
The Seven Gods are very unique. They never claim to be eternal, nor do they claim to be the only one.
They each have their own doctrines, but they can verify each other and make sense.
They are each independent, have their own believers, and develop on their own, but they can also unify their words and face the outside world in unison.
After they appeared, they managed to carve out their own place of faith in the Old World, and through their support for the Hohenzollern family, they made the Habsburg Empire recognize their status as a state religion.
This is an almost unbelievable thing, but they did it.
Their coming even caused changes in the calendar. The original solar calendar was replaced by the new divine calendar.
The 311th year of the New Divine Calendar means that they have been in the world for years.
Please note that this calendar is recognized by the entire Old World, that is, outside the Habsburg Empire, all the dioceses belonging to the sun god recognize this calendar.
This shows the abilities of the Seven Gods!
To be honest, the conflict between the Sun God and the Seven Gods is visible to the naked eye, but they all behave very restrained towards each other.
Of course, these are all considered far away, let’s talk about something close!
After unifying the faith of the Old World, the Sun God became very aloof. He seemed to consciously begin to downplay the frequency of miracles, and instead became more like a high-ranking judge and arbitrator.
He doesn't care about the intrigues among the nobles or the wars between nations.
Everyone must pay the tithe that belongs to the church.
Even if a king ascends the throne, he must be recognized by the church and ask the gods' representative on earth, His Holiness the Pope, to put the crown on them.
This is orthodoxy and a necessity, otherwise, you will not be able to hold your position firmly!
It should be said that for a long time, the Church of the Sun God did a good job, but this situation was broken until the advent of the Seven Gods.
The Seven Gods don't care what you, the Sun God, do. They just like to send down oracles, spread divine grace, and even send incarnations to take believers to appreciate the scenery of the kingdom of God.
Just like the blessing of God on the city of Auckland, it was not an isolated case. Instead, the Seven Gods chose different cities randomly or purposefully on the day of the Feast of God’s Grace to perform miracles.
This kind of tangible benefit, which is closer to the gods of believers, is naturally more popular among believers.
The development of the Church of the Seven Gods and the spread of faith forced the Church of the Sun God to retreat step by step, forcing it to make changes.
For example, the number of miracles performed by the sun god has increased significantly, and the church is willing to make more announcements to attract believers.
It’s a pity that these noble gentlemen, who claim to be God’s shepherds, would never really care about the lives of mortals.
As I was thinking, God's blessing ended, but the leaden clouds in the sky had been dispersed, and the evening sun shone down, bringing warmth to the winter city of Auckland.
There was also a cheerful atmosphere in the air. The firewood was lit and turned into a huge bonfire. The flames that shot up into the sky illuminated everyone's smiling faces.
They sang and danced around the bonfire, jumping and laughing. Their healthy bodies allowed them to release themselves to their heart's content. If they were tired, there was food nearby. The long table was filled with carefully cooked food. The aroma of the food, coupled with the beer, attracted countless people to line up.
Luo Yi was originally preparing to leave, but at some point, someone pulled her to dance.
He didn't know how, but the girl who was pulling him didn't know how either. She just twisted her body with energy and showed off her beauty to the fullest.
Luo Yi twisted a few times unconsciously, but felt it was not right, so he stopped there and felt completely helpless.
He turned around to look for Oliveira, only to find that Oliveira had been taken away at some point.
The one who pulled him away was also a girl. At a sudden glance, Loyi could still see the freckles on her face, but Oliveira was dragged into the crowd by her and danced wildly.
Luo Yi was a little dumbfounded. He really wanted to say, I didn’t expect you to be such a Oliveira?
But the next second, he was dragged by the girl and started moving again. He no longer resisted, but danced wildly to the bonfire and the music.
Luo Yi himself had never thought that he would be so crazy when he was crazy. When he was happy, he had to perform 360-degree turns, single-leg jumps and mid-air spins, sideways turns and jumps, single-leg transformation jumps, and swallow-style jumps...
Anyway, they were all difficult moves, which showed the results of his training to the fullest and won applause from the whole audience.
Because of this, the priest of the Wandering God Shandacol specially sent him fine beer and white bread, and invited him to visit the temple of the Wandering God when he is free.
With his physical condition, it would be a huge waste if he didn't change his job to a ranger or a rogue.
Luo Yi was still sober, and he felt a little amused and helpless when he saw the obviously drunk young pastor in front of him.
However, he did note the young pastor's name, Keig Montgomery.
The bonfire party lasted for several hours, until the moon reached its zenith, when most people began to feel tired.
Then, groups of people finally began to disperse and headed home along the roads that extended in all directions.
Luo Yi had had enough fun and prepared to leave with the crowd.
The street lights on the roadside had already been lit, and with the light from the moon in the sky, the road was illuminated clearly.
Oliveira had long disappeared, but Loyi didn't care. She walked casually on the way home, feeling very happy.
You have to admit that his life was really depressing and he had pushed himself too hard in the past few months.
But the string in the head is too tight and can easily break.
This blessing from God, coupled with the release of the bonfire party, made him completely relaxed.
Although it was a thrilling and crazy time, he felt as if his body had been freed from some kind of shackles. Instead, he became more energetic and happy both physically and mentally.
Luo Yi felt that if he were given a sword at this time, he would be able to exert his strength to the fullest.
Just as this thought came to mind, there was a sudden loud noise.
boom!
A huge explosion, accompanied by flames and shock waves, swept along the street.
Luo Yi dodged to the side almost instinctively, and his body was as fast as lightning, and he had already flashed to the shadow of the wall.
Then, he leaned over to look, and saw in the distance, as far as the eye could see, there was a raging fire wrapped in high temperature, which distorted the air, and there was thick smoke rising into the sky.
Along with the noise, shouts and screams, countless people rushed there, and countless people tried to escape.
After looking carefully for a long time, Shenlan finally locked the location, and the reflection in Luoyi's eyes showed the address of the fire.
That's actually the church of the Church of the Sun God?
The church exploded?
Who did it? How did it happen? What is the conspiracy?
As these thoughts were still flashing through his mind, Roy already knew that Auckland was going to be in chaos again?!
It was at this time that he suddenly discovered that the fire started in not one place, but two places!
There was no explosion there, but the fire was so fierce that it was three times more serious than that of the Church of the Sun.
Shenlan automatically located itself and landed on that spot. The name that appeared made Luo Yi's eyes widen.
Alamo Prison, Oakland?
Luo Yi clearly remembered that a riot had just happened there not long ago, how could they come back?
At this moment, Luo Yi could only say "Haha", this group of people were really playing wildly.
Then, without hesitation, he dodged into the alley, ready to rush back to 19 Lombard Street as quickly as possible.
On a night like this, it’s safer to stay at home!
The editor said the results were poor, oh!!!
