Chapter 1570 : “Double Spring”

In the 5th year of Cecil, in the early spring, as the constellation Frostbita left the highest point in the night sky, the constellation Ryder gradually rose from the horizon, and the cold and cold winter entrenched in the northern kingdom finally gradually passed away. The atmosphere of eagerly looking forward to the spring flowers is gradually brewing between the city and the countryside – the recovery festival is approaching, and for most countries on this continent, this will be the most important festival of the year.

For the citizens of Cecil City, this year’s Recovery Day is even more special.

This is a recovery festival for Chapter after the victory of the Great Battle of Tarash, and a large festival for the Alliance after the victory day celebration. It is also a large festival for the Chapter after the victory of the Alliance. The day of loyalty to the imperial capital – and in order to celebrate this special day, the imperial family and theocratic council even authorized a grand religious celebration to hold a “fertility prayer and sacrifice ceremony” in the largest pioneer square in Cecil City.

Since the Theocratic Council has vigorously rectified the sects across the country, and the authority of the church has been weakened, priests and believers of various sects have not held rituals of this scale for a long time.

For this day, half of the city has been decorated with lights, and the Pioneer Square has been prepared a few days ago, and now it has been completely arranged as a sacred ceremony venue in line with the teachings of the Three Gods of Abundance, symbolizing the cover of the mother earth. A variety of herbs and minerals of the three sisters, Eve, the goddess of harvest, and Flora, the goddess of spring, are dotted all over the square, and the street lamps are tied with dried wheat ears and straws specially reserved last year, extending all the way from the Pioneer Square. to the church district.

Crowds in costumes set out from their homes in the early morning, along the main road from the church area to the Grand Place, and arrived at the altar area on time before the sun filled the square. He offered prayers to the gods in the sun, and poured the dew collected the previous day into the jar in front of the altar—with the last drop of water falling into the jar, the ceremony of praying to the gods began.

Then the horn sounded, and the bells and drums, which symbolized the joy of the harvest, sounded in unison. The ascetic monks wearing garlands walked to the high platform. They stepped on the thorny road specially paved in front of the high platform with their bare feet. The blood of the goddess of spring is regarded as the will of the goddess of spring to melt the winter snow. The saint of fertility, wearing a simple long dress and holding wheat ears, also stepped onto the high platform. She will preside over the sacrificial ceremony in the next session as a devout believer. The representative of the gods listened directly to the will of the gods on the high platform.

And when it all started, Gawain stood on the tallest tower at the end of Pioneer Square, quietly overlooking the crowded pomp on the square, as well as the solemn and complicated sacred ceremonies on the altar.

Behind him, in the not spacious room, there is a large-scale machine, which occupies almost half of the room. You can see the neatly arranged crystal matrix and rune substrate, along with the crystal emitting a shimmer, a low humming sound also came from the depths of the machine, echoing slightly throughout the room.

In addition to this room, in the entire tower, there are various protective devices, and there are well-armed and determined judge monks guarding everywhere.

This layer of protection is not to ensure Gawain’s own safety – the safety of a legendary powerhouse does not require the protection of these things. The real purpose of these protections is to maintain an unprecedentedly powerful anti-divine barrier, to ensure that the Theocratic Council researchers in the tower can safely record various parameters of the ceremony site, maintain communication with the Rebellion Court, and in the process not be detected by the divine half-body of the Three Gods of Plenty.

Gawain’s eyes passed through the window and landed on the altar. He saw that the “Holy Maiden” had placed the ear of wheat in front of the three icons – all three icons were half Half-deer, what the three sisters Gaia, Eve, and Flora showed kindly looking at the world, and with the solemn and devout prayers from the saintess’ mouths, the surface of the three icons immediately appeared dazzling brilliance, Immediately afterwards, the already dry wheat ears regained their vitality.

Seeing the icon glowing and the wheat ears turning green, the Holy Maiden seemed relieved, she smiled and nodded – this “miracle image” indicates that the connection between the gods and the world has been completed. Established, the three goddesses have set their sights on this sacred sacrifice site, and the sacrifice ceremony to be performed here is a “right move” recognized by the gods.

A familiar aura emerged from the air, and Gawain heard Amber’s voice coming from beside him: “It looks really troublesome, I started preparations a few days ago, and now it’s finally officially started, There are also so many ‘symbolic ceremonies’ that twist and turn around, how about walking around the street before the sun shines, ascetic monks prick their feet with thorns, and put ears of wheat in front of statues, isn’t it all a toss?”

“The cumbersome religious ceremonies are to show the divinity of the gods and establish a clear distance between the gods and the mortals. At the same time, the process of artificially formulating complex rules and strictly implementing them and gradually evolving them into iron laws is also a process. The manifestation of the authority of the church,” Gao Wen smiled and said casually, “and in the early stage of society, the cultural level and logical ability of ordinary people are generally not strong, in this case, it is necessary to ensure that large-scale activities are carried out in an orderly manner, and Seemingly bizarre but mandatory ‘rules’ are essential, not only to inspire awe, but also to ensure that the sacred ceremony scene will not get out of control.”

He paused when he said this. Shaking his head: “Of course, with the development of society, the purpose and form of many religious ceremonies will be ‘deformed’ to a certain extent. On the one hand, the church must strictly implement its ‘core’ to show its orthodox status, A lot of ‘private goods’ are added under the human factor. Anyway, as long as it does not violate the basic dogma of the gods, as long as the sacrificial ceremony can be carried out, it will be a success.”

“That’s right, I suspect that Gaia and the other three directly participated in the last part of the icon lighting,” Amber leaned beside Gawain and muttered while looking at the square with his head, ” The tossing of the ascetic in front of him was to go to the square to raise money for soup and medicine when the ceremony was halfway through.”

Gao Wen:”

Although he really wanted to remind the shadow assault goose, what was going on in front of him It was a very serious and large-scale experiment that directly affected whether the Ragnarok plan could be carried out smoothly, but there was a voice in his heart telling him – this guy is right.

I’m sorry. The feeling of going out was extremely uncomfortable, so Gawain quickly turned his attention to other places. He looked away from the ceremony scene in the square, turned around and came to the large equipment in the center of the room. This humming device It is essentially a high-power anti-divine barrier generator, but for this special application scenario, it integrates a set of encrypted communication equipment inside it – Gao Wen reached out and activated the crystal located in front of the device, accompanied by a burst of symbols. With the clicking sound of the text board switching, the crystal surface gradually lit up, and then a clear holographic projection appeared in front of him and Amber.

The most striking center of the holographic projection is the one that is against the back of the courtyard. The golden oak tree, and next to the golden oak tree, Flora, the goddess of spring who was talking to Amorn, heard the movement from the communication device and immediately got up and walked over.

In the background behind Flora, in the dark depths that are still some distance away from the golden oak tree, other tall and majestic figures can be vaguely seen—that are gathered in the “meeting ground” on, the other gods who are ready to witness this sacrificial ceremony.

“The ceremony in Cecil City has already started,” Gawain nodded slightly to the goddess of spring who appeared in the communicator. “As planned, the ceremony site on Typhon and Baiyin should also start at the same time.”

“Yes, we have already felt the strong prayer of the believers just now,” Flora nodded immediately, and raised her finger to the darkness in the far distance of the rebellious courtyard, “My two sisters have returned to the kingdom of God. Go and monitor the situation of the sacrifice passage, I will stay here and the world will change.”

“Well,” Gawain replied briefly, then he seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked again, ’Sacrifices and rituals There is no problem with the calibration at the scene, right? You must not make a mistake – such a large-scale sacrifice passage is the first time since ancient times.”

“Don’t worry!” The goddess of spring has a bright face. With a smile, his front hoof tapped lightly on the ground, “Take the things in the house, don’t need the house, take away the things printed on the box with the words ‘Wu De Express, Mission must reach’, don’t use the unmarked, no one Things can be taken away under the condition of being watched, but once someone sees it, they cannot be taken—except, of course, the person in charge of the handover arranged on the spot by the Theocratic Council. Simple, we remember it clearly!”

Gawain nodded as he listened, and his heart relaxed a little. To be honest, he didn’t doubt that the three goddesses would not be able to remember such a simple thing, but he was mainly worried that the three sisters would be too excited. There is a mistake – after all, the human nature of God is more inclined to “human”, and the intelligence of human beings will be significantly reduced when they are about to get off work.

However, he nodded, and Amber next to him seemed to suddenly Thinking of something, he hurriedly leaned over: “Hey, wait! Don’t forget to take the things on the altar!”

The goddess of spring in the communication screen was stunned for a moment: “Altar? What altar?”

“The table where your saint is standing! Amber’s eyes widened immediately, “That’s the focus of this sacrifice ceremony!” Don’t forget to take away the sacrifices in the end, I’ll go, you really forgot, right?”

The goddess of spring fell silent for a while, and then turned her face away while digging with her hoof: “I didn’t forget.””

Gao Wen:”

At the same time, on the large altar in the center of Pioneer Square, the Holy Maiden of Harvest has completed her prayers before the sacrifice ceremony. and prayers, and this sacred ceremony is about to usher in a critical stage.

Under the eyes of thousands of believers and many priests, this saint with splendid golden curly hair came to the statue of the three goddesses with a very serious expression. Good incense, and sprinkle the dew collected in the morning on the edge of the incense plate, and then in the unanimous prayer of the priests, he took the holy thing handed over by the deacon and placed it in front of the icon.

It was a sprouting young sprout of Chapter in the temple garden before the festival of recovery, the snow water collected during the last snowfall in the cold winter, and the highest-quality lapis lazuli amulet representing the “holy nature” of the three goddesses.

The Holy Maiden placed these sacrifices at the feet of the icon – this was not the first time she performed sacrifices to the three goddesses, but it was definitely the most respectful, solemn and solemn one in her life. back.

Not only because the ceremony was supported by the royal family and the theocratic council, but also because on the eve of the royal family’s order, she was actually enlightened by the three goddesses in her sleep, and the goddesses directly foreshadowed this. The arrival of the festival.

Getting “omens” from the gods before the royal and theocratic orders are given, what else could these prophetic things not be real graces and miracles? It can’t be because the gods held a meeting with His Majesty the Emperor two months in advance, right?

With the gratitude of being inspired by the gods and the full confidence of being supported by the royal family, the Holy Maiden of Plenty took a deep breath. She felt that this might be the most successful sacrifice she could ever perform in her life. The ceremony, because she already felt the gaze of the gods falling on this earth.

There was joy and anticipation in those eyes.

On the edge of Pioneer Square, a large warehouse facility was standing quietly in the depths of the streets and alleys that the devotees attending the ceremony had not noticed.

This is an inconspicuous warehouse, which is no different from the common civilian storage facilities in this urban area, but at this time, there are more than a dozen guard posts around this inconspicuous warehouse. The trial knights and the Arbitration Tribunal nuns in plain clothes are vigilantly monitoring all the bells and whistles at all the gates of the warehouse and the intersections of every nearby street, and even on the roofs of every building around the warehouse, there is at least one monitor who is responsible for guarding.

In an inconspicuous corner of the front gate of the heavily guarded warehouse, there is a small emblem with wheat ears as the main body:.

That is the emblem of the three gods of abundance.

Where there is a sacred emblem, it is the shrine.

Veronica, holding a platinum scepter, came to the warehouse. After a brief handover with the sentry at the main entrance, she pushed open the warehouse door and stepped into it.

The rich artistic atmosphere in the warehouse is overwhelming – tons of charge units, neatly stacked cannonball boxes that are almost piled up, crystal bombs that can’t be seen, and all kinds of other dazzling “The Crystallization of Modern Art”.

What they have in common is that they are easy to use and store, easy to maintain, and they don’t need to consider the launch environment.

Of course, for security reasons, this warehouse is actually only a part of the bomb, and they have all been defused (activated rune board) – the fuses are all placed in another warehouse across the square, there is the same arrangement as here.

Veronica’s eyes swept across the entire warehouse. After confirming for the last time that everything in this “sacred ceremony ground” was as normal, she took out a piece of paper from her arms, shook it away, and her face was blank. The words above were read with expression: “The symbol of the earth, the master of the harvest, the messenger of spring and recovery”

On the square, the saint in the center of the altar raised her hands to the icon, with piety and sympathy. In awe, her voice echoed in the ears of thousands of believers: “The devout believers pray to the three gods, we are like lambs, crawling in the earth, we receive the grace of God, and sincerely sacrifice”

In the warehouse, Veronica has put away the paper that recorded the prayer in her hand. According to memory, her unwavering voice as she reads the manuscript ends at the same time as the prayer of the Holy Maiden in the square—

“With this humble attitude, I offer the treasures of this world, and may God be gracious and accept this sacrifice.”

The next second, a distorted light curtain filled Veronica’s line of sight!

All perceptions were useless at this moment, and the opening of the large-scale sacrifice passage was immediate and short-lived. Distorting the order of time and space in the warehouse, the tons of “art collections” were turned into something between material and virtual images, and were sucked into the depths of the twisted light curtain like a storm!

On the square, thousands of believers looked up at the same time, and the Holy Maiden of Harvest also stared at the three offerings at the feet of the icon. This is the most critical stage of the entire ceremony. Whether the gods are happy because of the piety of mortals, the year Whether the harvest and success can be guaranteed depends entirely on whether the sacrifice will be taken away by invisible forces – this girl with curly blond hair did not dare to blink, she stared at it for a long time, and felt uneasy in her heart. When it was about to emerge, the vision she had been waiting for finally appeared.

The invisible light curtain suddenly descended from the sky, and wherever the light curtain passed, the sacrifices disappeared out of thin air.

It even spread The tray on which the offerings were placed seems to be gone.

The saint blinked. She looked at the deacon next to her and found that the deacon was also a little flustered.

I have never seen this before.jpg.

But after all, she is a high-level priest, and the most basic requirement for standing in this position is to be calm enough. The Holy Maiden soon woke up from the astonishment of “Why did the three goddesses even take away the plate?” Thinking of a reason that would convince herself and all the believers within a second, she turned to look at the square, facing the spectacle of thousands of people, and loudly declared—

“Cheers. God is delighted by our piety—very delighted!!”

The next second, there was thunderous applause in the square.

At the same time, around the golden oak tree that disobeyed the courtyard, the gods who came to watch the fun also burst into applause.
