St. Granburg.

Da Da Da Da Da Da Da...

The tidy and mighty hooves of the Knights of Light walked on the stone streets of St. Granburg.

The sunlight shone on the pale golden armor of these knights, revealing fortitude, loyalty and determination.

The arrival of the Red Archbishop Claire once again made countless believers boil. The believers cheered on both sides of the street, admiring the glory of the Knights of Light and the glory of the Red Archbishop.

"It's the cardinal master!"

"The Great Cardinal Master!"

This red archbishop from the distant Aurora Bright Empire, the Aurora Bright Cathedral, where the most frequent miracles since the Creator of the Light came to the world, has finally come to St. Granburg again after seventeen years!

Bathed in the sacred light of the creator of light for a long time, Claire seems to the believers that as long as he can admire his glory, he seems to be one step closer to heaven, and the sin of opening the box of desire will be redeemed.

"The sacred power of the church seems to be much weaker than it was a decade ago."

At the forefront of the Knights of Light, Claire stared at the Cathedral of Light in St. Granburg, her already pale eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

The holy light of the church has the most direct relationship with the number of believers and the degree of piety, and this is also an important criterion for the promotion of all clergy. More than ten years have passed, the power of faith in the highest church in this country has been weakened so much?

Well, there are only two possibilities.

The rise of a **** has gained people's faith.

The war-torn population declined sharply, resulting in insufficient power of faith.

As for people who have given up their belief in the creator of light, Claire never thought that this would happen. After all, the creator of light is the only true **** in the world!

"Ahem."

Claire couldn't help but coughed slightly.

This is the result of the two heretical wars he has participated in over the years to destroy the night, summoning the divine power of light again and again, releasing the great power that does not belong to the mortal, and seriously consuming the vitality of the body, and it has reached the end of the year.

"Archbishop, as usual, we must first go to St. Granburg’s Cathedral to bless the believers, listen to the bishop’s report here, and the king will come to visit him at a later time.

The judge on the side reminded under the golden mask.

"Ok."

Claire responded in a low voice.

Although his body is very weak and the wrinkles on his face look like old bark that is about to wither, he must maintain sufficient majesty in front of the believers and maintain a calm face in the admiration of countless believers.

"Great Lord, please accept my confession!"

"The light is with you."

A devout believer stood with his hands on his chest in excitement, bowed his head in prayer, and even shed tears of excitement.

quickly.

This knight of light came to the church of St. Granburg.

The bishop and many clergy have been waiting in front of the church for a long time. After a short ceremony, Claire looked at the many believers gathered in front of the church. Those who could gather here were not ordinary civilians, but almost all the nobles of the principality.

According to tradition, he needs to give a bright blessing to the people here on the first day.

Seeing Claire's physical condition, the bishop seemed to be facing many believers with a calm smile, but communicated with Claire through mental fluctuations.

"If it's inconvenient, why don't you let me do it?"

Claire glanced at the bishop and shook his head slowly.

He opened his arms, as if embracing the sky, calling the great creator of light.

Om...

The warm brilliance sown from the sky, so that people nearby are bathed in it. People are excited to witness miracles and contribute their pious beliefs.

After a long time, the ceremony ended.

Bathed in the light, the trees and vegetation became more lush, people's skin became younger, the pain disappeared, and even the scars of the wounds were restored.

Only Claire gasped slightly.

The blessing ceremony that used to be almost like breathing to him has become an unparalleled heavy burden for his body, which is now nearly exhausted.

In order to maintain sufficient solemnity, he brought the Knights of Light to the church almost immediately after the blessing ceremony.

A group of people passed through the prayer room and came to the back room.

Claire leaned weakly on the animal skin chair and looked at the Bishop of St. Granburg and several high priests.

He slowly said, "I came here once more than ten years ago. I remember that at that time, the faith here was very sufficient, at least twice as much as it is now. Why is the Holy Light here now declining so fast? "

Kekekekekekeke.

He coughed violently and gasped slightly, looking extremely tired and sleepy.

"Forgive all these years, because of the heretical invasion of the night, my neglect of this place is that the believers here have converted to the goddess of wisdom?"

Originally according to the plan, after the new pope became king, he would start a new round of crusade expedition to the night, but he did not expect that the changes in the dark world and the invasion of the night would lead to the extermination of the heresy for more than ten years. war.

Because of the continuous wars over the years, the financial resources of the Holy See have been empty, so it is necessary to encourage believers to dedicate themselves again and again, and even sell the number of priests.

This has also exacerbated some contradictions that were once hidden.

Fortunately, the heretical invasion of the night was finally beaten back, and the land of the star curtain was quiet again.

"To be precise, the last time you visited Fort Saint-Gran, you hosted the ceremony of burning books on heretical thoughts at the Gran Academy of Natural Sciences. Seventeen years, nine months, and 21 days have passed. As for the decline of the power of the Holy Light here, Not because of the goddess of wisdom."

The bishop said slowly.

Under Claire’s gaze, he continued: “The Goddess of Wisdom has withdrawn from the scope of the Grand Duchy because of her failure to participate in the struggle for the throne of the new king. She has turned to the territory of several small duchies, and is in contact with the former divine forces in those small principalities. , There has been a war, and although it is stable now, but because of the massive loss of faith, her godhead has fallen to a low level."

Ok?

Claire was surprised: "Then why is the light here weakened so much?"

"It's because of the three-year compulsory education introduced by the new king! This was originally a good thing, but the king seemed to be very dissatisfied with the Holy See's support for Prince Hei. Therefore, in the compulsory education, the "Guangming Festival" was not introduced, but added to the " Some scholarly works, such as the Law of Nature, The Profound Meaning of Evolution, and Alchemy, have also caused many children to be less religious to the Creator of Light than their parents."

The bishop's face was a little stiff.

He slowly said: "I'm afraid that if this continues, Gran will become another Sealand in a few years, and the Holy Light here will probably fall to the bottom of the valley."

"Being another Sealand? No way."

Claire shook his head and denied.

The secret of the Principality of Sealand that the bishop didn't know, but he knew clearly that there was no second one in the land of the star screen.

"Tell me what the new king has done over the years."

In the eyes of the Great Empire of Aurora, the land of the principality is a barren and remote place far away from the Central Plains, a place of faith for the gods.

Scholars were born in the era when the Black Death plague was prevalent. It was the weakest era of the Holy See. Together with the Holy See, they defeated the dark world. Therefore, the attitude of the Holy See towards scholars has always been in line with those in the swamp of death, the deep forest of thorns, and the Hengduan Mountains. Those heretics are like gods, although they are not close, they can be used as tools.

As for the atheism that scholars preach.

From the point of view of the Holy See~lightnovelpub.net~ this is not even a heresy, but... ignorance!

In less than half an hourglass, the bishop, from the high-level perspective of the Principality, explained to Claire the achievements of King Granchen over the years.

Claire frowned slightly and thought.

There was a brief silence in the room. After the bishop hesitated several times and then stopped, he finally couldn't help it, and slowly said: "In addition... there is one more thing. Over the years, because there is no clear evidence, I haven't been able to tell Aurora in time. Report it and ask the archbishop to check it out."

"what?"

Claire asked.

The Bishop of St. Granburg slowly said: "When the King Chen was in the prince dispute, he fled St. Granburg and faced the pursuit of Prince Ping. It seemed that there was an elite Holy See power that had secretly helped him through. Difficulty!"

He took a deep breath.

"But before that, the will of the Holy See was very clear, and it was to support Prince Ping."
