Sean didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

In five days, he distributed seven copies of "Long Poems of the Night Wind"...

At this moment, in front of Ms. Hersheys, there are already eight burning candles of faith.

Five days, eight believers.

"In the initial stage, it is really rare to be able to harvest eight people who are truly willing to believe in Ms. Hershey in such a short period of time..."

After all, Newlander is a "god-constitutional country", and religious belief and the constitution of the country are in the same high position.

Therefore, this country is full of people who believe in "Salvationism" and "Holy Father Gene".

Although the people in the lower city who live in poverty have lost trust in the court that has been closely intertwined with the trust and the rich class, resulting in fewer people who believe in the "state religion" than the middle class and the rich class...

However, various legal or illegal minority beliefs have almost divided up these bottom-level people.

In the age of mysteries, people became more superstitious.

Therefore, in five days, Sean used Shawshank's personality charm to talk to more than 20 people, and selected suitable people for further missionary work. Until today, he has harvested eight people...

Only he himself knows how rare this is.

It was already late at night, Sean himself was already sleeping in bed, and Shawshank Rogers was still standing in front of the goddess statue, meditating—this state, for Sean himself, was no different from ordinary sleep. Equally refreshed.

Shawshank stared at the long and short candles that were gathered together at the feet of the goddess...

They are like helpless little creatures in the darkness of this underground temple. The faint candlelight gathers together to comfort each other and illuminate the skirt of the goddess...

The image made Shawshank feel inexplicably at peace and content.

Suddenly, the leader of the Esoteric Cult discovered that the warm and bright flame of the shortest candle suddenly flickered, as if it was the only one being eaten away by the wind, and the flame became dim and depressing...

"Huge negative emotional energy..." Shawshank narrowed his eyes, "a nightmare that may shake the stability of the soul."

The leader of the Esoteric Cult walked forward boldly, and gave a "self-embracing salute" to the goddess at the highest place of the temple, lightly pressing the opposite shoulder with both hands, and then hovered his hand over the attacked candle...

"Night is the time to sleep peacefully, but the devil also chooses to knock on the window at this moment to disturb...

"Thanks to the kind lady's listening and protection, we are fortunate to have a safe and sweet sleep..."

The palm of Shawshank Rogers released the same warm light as the goddess torch.

The power of faith flows into the spiritual world, and the divine power in the spiritual world feeds back to its believers...

A hundred kilometers away, a black woman who was sweating profusely because of a nightmare, her panting gradually subsided.

It can be seen that her distorted face due to muscle tension has gradually calmed down.

It's like a baby crying at night has been properly comforted and finally returned to a sweet sleep.

In the underground temple, the candle was restored to stability.

Shawshank let out a sigh of relief, and returned to the state of meditation: "Unexpectedly, the divine power activated by the seven people's beliefs will come in handy..."

When the number of people who believed in Ms. Hershey increased to seven, Sean's independent spirit gained new divine power.

There is no doubt that these divine powers are all derived from the will of the spirit lord.

Just now, the divine power that Shawshank used on the woman who was attacked by the nightmare was called "Her Comfort".

It can exert a soothing effect on a believer, and obtain a sleep that can even heal the soul - a nightmare may tear a person's soul, and a peaceful sleep may also heal a person's heart...

The prerequisite for activation is "naturalized" and "Night Wind Long Poem" is placed in the same room.

The second effect is actually similar to "Her Comfort", named "Blessing of the Night Wind".

After converting the power that can adjust the dream to the outside world, Ms. Hershey can protect a believer for a period of time and have a chance to escape a mysterious encounter with the Jack-level target...

Of course, the current power of faith is still limited, so unless it encounters a spiritual attack that can be restrained, the current deterrent effect of "Blessing of the Night Wind" against evil entities is still limited.

The activation conditions are similar to "Her Comfort", only at night, only believers, and believers must carry "Long Poem".

There are other small buffs, and Shawshank believes that they will definitely come in handy in the days to come...

Looking at the eight equally peaceful and bright candles, Shawshank returned to peace in his heart.

He is recharging his energy for tomorrow...

Because tomorrow is the first "gathering" he has agreed with eight believers.

—

After the northern New Zealand ushered in winter, the time for the sun to set was getting earlier and earlier.

The color of the sky became darker, and Mr. Rogers appeared on the streets of New Testament again.

Tonight, he did not walk into the lower city, but strolled along Bailisi Street.

The residents here are of a higher social class than those in the lower urban area, and some of them even live a decent life in the middle class.

In the previous missionary process, Sean was very lucky to use Ms. Hershey's story to attract a couple who lived on Bailisi Street.

"It's too easy to be exposed if you naturalize believers in the lower city alone," Sean thought, and walked lightly to a street door, tapping on the door with his fingertips in a unique rhythm. "It's best to ensure the composition of believers, from all walks of life in society."

When the street door opened silently, Sean quickly entered the room, turned around and closed the door.

At this moment, there was a couple standing in front of her. The man was tall and thin, wearing a pair of round-frame glasses; the hostess had long hair, and her complexion and lips were slightly pale.

Mr. and Mrs. Hopman, residents of Baileys Street who have been naturalized to the faith of Lady Hersheys.

In the night two days ago, the couple listened to Mr. Shawshank Rogers' narration together, and prayed to the goddess together at night...

Originally, the sleep that had become poor due to the lack of children and work pressure turned out to be stable and sweet after talking to the goddess, making them feel like they were reborn.

At this moment, when the two saw Mr. Rogers visiting the house again, they took two steps back in awe.

As if seeing their favorite character approaching, both of them couldn't take their eyes off Mr. Rogers' face.

Suddenly realizing something, the two of them put their hands on each other's shoulders in a strange way, made the "self-hug gift" designed by Xiao En, and said softly: "I am grateful for her listening."

"Thank you for listening to her." Seeing the reverent attitude of the two, Sean was inexplicably moved, and also gave a hug in return.

The host welcomed Shawshank into the living room, made a pot of black tea, and began to wait for other believers to arrive.

Compared with the slightly nervous Hopmans, Sean was much more relaxed. He kindly asked about the life of the Hopmans, and patiently explained the allusions in "The Long Poem" to them—

"...that cave actually symbolizes the night. In the section 'refusing to leave the cave', Ms. Hershey sealed herself in the cave, symbolizing a transformation process of the goddess at that time—she also used the silence of the night to ask herself, Should I obey the fate of being dominated by other gods, or walk out my own path..."

Xiao En explained the obscure metaphor while thinking: "This is too simple... These words are from my pen."

While explaining, he could even recall the passionate emotion with which he wrote those words that day.

Under the guidance of Mr. Shawshank Rogers, the Hopmans obviously suddenly realized.

The two looked at each other with surprised expressions, and then looked at Mr. Rogers with more admiration and respect in their eyes.

There was another slight knock on the door with a special rhythm.

This was the way Shawshank had agreed to knock on the door before - not only would it not disturb the neighbors, but it would also be able to instantly determine whether the visitor was one of his own.

Mrs. Hopman walked quickly to the door, opened it, and welcomed them in.

Shawshank stood in the living room to welcome him—and after him came Mr. Henry Hart, and his friend Raymond, a security guard at a shoe factory in the lower town.

Shawshank could see that after entering the house, there seemed to be black "feathers" falling from their shoulders, and they disappeared before they landed.

Ordinary people can't see this detail. This is the "night curtain" effect given to believers by the spirit world, which makes them move quickly at night and is harder to detect.

"Did you not attract anyone's attention on the way here?" After the door was closed, Mr. Hopman asked with concern.

"No, the journey went very smoothly!" Henry Hart saw Shawshank from a distance, walked over happily, and sincerely made a self-hug salute to Sean: "Thank you for listening!"

In this quiet night, everyone communicated in low voices, and the atmosphere was somewhat mysterious.

In fact, in the early days of the establishment of the religion, the education officials did not pay attention at all, so there is no need to be so careful.

However, for the sake of safety, Sean still asked the believers to act in secrecy.

He knows that ~lightnovelpub.net~ due to Kluvitan's return and his influence on Newlander, the divine court has recently been very strict about "evil" beliefs.

Foreseeing that the scale will increase in the future, Sean hopes that the sect he created will avoid excessive attention until it reaches a scale that can fight for "legalization"...

Only in this way can the vigorous growth of the spirit be ensured.

In addition, "Action Under the Night" would have been consistent with the characteristics of this belief. Let the believers shut up under the night package and rush to a safe shelter as soon as possible-this is an experience often mentioned in the teachings.

It is also good for them to understand the artistic conception in "The Long Poem of Night Wind".

The host arranged for the new guests to sit down, and the speech at the party could only start after everyone was present. Shawshank began to talk with Henry.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and people in the city began to fall asleep.

However, in this hidden corner lit by candlelight, Shawshank is still waiting...
