I have a shelter

Chapter 102 The Book of Dawn (two chapters in one)

Only Jack's wisdom reached 0.5, while most of the others were 0.2, and Alexander was only 0.1

After that, George extinguished his enthusiasm and stopped baptizing people with his own hands. But after that, the territory had several more extraordinary people.

Those aunts

These three people were inspired by themselves, and when they prayed in the church, they were influenced by the mysterious power and became priests. Their wisdom is at the level of real priests, which is four times more than George's original wisdom - that is, 0.8!

And the people who usually do chores around them also became apprentice priests under their teaching. The one with the highest wisdom is even only 0.1 lower than Jack.

The energy in the body is not some kind of magic power, but "holy power"!

Jack is also a holy power.

Recently, these guys are learning a few mantra hymns on the holy book in George's hand under the guidance of several priest aunts.

Before becoming a Templar Knight, the Holy Knights were indeed a group of priests who focused on combat skills.

"I wonder if Gale can bring some walnuts next time he comes."

This incident made George somewhat depressed. He attributed the low wisdom to Alexander's corruption. As for the divine power, it was because these people's ideological and moral awareness was still too low.

He was in a daze for a while, then turned and walked into the back door of the church.

The layout of this church is very simple. In general, it is composed of the chapel in the main hall and the back hall. There are also several small halls on both sides, which are not large in area and are mainly used for monks to rest and meditate. If it is expanded in the future, it can be transformed into a corridor, with the current church as the main body and connected to other new buildings.

The walls of the main hall and the back hall are connected to the dome, but the back hall is only one-third of the main hall. But even with such an area, it is more than enough to accommodate dozens of knights for temporary rest and meetings.

As soon as George entered the back door, he saw the skull of Goron embedded in the wall in front of him, its brown color was set off by the white stone wall. If there are more spoils of war, they can be hung around the Goron's head. Or even directly hung on the main seat, letting the Goron's head stand aside.

On both sides of it, there are several red, blue, and gold flags. Some of the flags have emblems of the Kingdom of Rodunk, and some are of dukes and earls. However, they are mainly symbolic, and the most important ones are Johannes's flag and the giant's head flag of the Knights.

As for the flags of the Holy See, they are basically hung in inconspicuous corners, or even not hung at all. Only the flag of the "Saint. Wileck Cathedral" is slightly more conspicuous.

Under the main wall of the back hall is a long table against the wall, on which are placed these silverware taken from the castle, in addition to candlesticks, silver plates for bread, grapes and other snacks, there are also some silver wine jugs filled with wine and some messy cups.

In the Holy See, it is actually forbidden for monks to drink, but the knights are turned a blind eye. Here in George

George walked to the table and poured himself a cup. After taking a sip, he wiped the red on his mouth and leaned on the table to look around.

The tall glazed windows provide good lighting here. This is entirely thanks to Anthony and the servants of the Kingdom of Heaven. After the appearance of these glazed windows, the servants of the Kingdom of Heaven cleverly pieced together various colors into many patterns, many of which are mythological stories and allusions, and one is about the battle of giants.

The decoration here is extremely luxurious, with very few dyes used, mostly using the natural colors of wood and stone. However, ivory and white stone are still the main colors, so it is mainly off-white. The window frames and doors are mostly purple and sandalwood, and there are also various colors of wood such as jade nan as embellishments.

Under several walls, there are some bookcases, which are also newly made with good wood. The books inside are all moved from the castle. Mishan often teaches everyone to read here, and George occasionally comes here.

The seats on the ground seem a bit messy, probably because the knights rested here for a while in the morning. There was also some mud on the red linen carpet.

George remembered that he had forgotten to knock his feet when he came in.

The people in the territory are busy now, and the servants of the Kingdom of Heaven have a lot of things to do. So the cleaning here is mainly done by the knights, including regular carpet washing.

After drinking two glasses of wine, George's thirsty throat was satisfied, and at some point, the sound of hymns and prayers came from the main hall, as if some baptism was going on.

George raised his eyebrows, walked around the wall, opened the door and watched quietly.

'Oh, it seems that several newborns were born a few days ago. Today is also the first funeral and the first baptism of newborns.'

The Vatican originally did not have the custom of baptizing newborns. This was George's consideration-the fog contains a lot of corruption and germs.

The parents of these children often work outside, and some people even bring their children for farm work. Including those mothers, they often start working a few days after giving birth.

It’s not that the work pressure at the shelter is too great, and George doesn’t quite approve of this approach. After all, no matter how rushed you are, it won’t save the few days of labor.

But in peacetime, most farmers do this and have long been accustomed to such labor. There are even cases of pregnant women giving birth in the fields, and many lords will not give their subjects maternity leave.

However, although the adults are strong and have long been accustomed to this, children cannot get used to the fog.

George has always felt that this is the main reason for the high mortality rate of newborns, so since the shelter has several pastors, George told them to pay attention to those pregnant women.

The "Water of Hope" of the Dawn Cathedral is part of the "God's Grace Transformation" at the beginning, and its effect is no less than George's Holy Hymn. However, while its healing effect focuses more on dispersing the germs and corruption in the fog.

At the same time, it is also full of the hopes and blessings of the subjects.

It can increase resistance to various attributes for a long period of time, with a value of about +10. The resistance increased by the shelter itself is only +10. So if a pregnant woman secretly takes her child to work, it is equivalent to not leaving the shelter.

In the shelter, this blessing adds an extra layer of protection to the newborns.

In fact, the increase in the number of newborns will bring greater pressure to the shelter. The shelter has never stopped promoting moderation and abstinence.

But since the children are born here, they should be protected. Since George made the decision to bring these pregnant women back, he will definitely not regret it.

Often, George would wonder if many things are not beneficial to the shelter. And carrying a heavy burden will make it more difficult for everyone to walk through the thorns ahead.

However, if humans are gradually becoming extinct, then if even the shelter will not allow the existence of newborns. Then where in this world will these people live?

He sometimes admits that at the beginning, he just wanted to have a meal for himself, including fooling the first batch of people over, and he also had a very selfish purpose. But before he knew it, he could no longer think about many things the same way he did at the beginning.

He fooled the people in the territory into a direction of yearning for hope, and was eventually pushed in that direction.

Sometimes, when he thought of these things, George often felt helpless. Occasionally, he felt like a child who cried wolf. But whenever he saw the people in the territory looking at him with admiration and respect, he would no longer hesitate to walk in the direction he had imagined.

Facts also proved that he was right. After the three children were baptized, three more light balls appeared near the Water of Hope.

George had just touched one of these light balls through the scroll, so he was very familiar with it.

Although after that, George thought of these newborns and the possibility of triggering hope. But now, after seeing this little bit of hope, he still couldn't hide his surprise.

After the pastor and the people in the territory left, George walked from the back hall to the front of the Water of Hope and carefully observed the three small light balls.

This thing was like a firefly. When the hand touched it, there was no reaction, but when they touched the scroll, they were absorbed into the shelter. The light of dawn on the main seat of the church seemed to be a little brighter.

‘9 points of hope, so it seems that every newborn means a divine rune! ’

George looked at the scroll [Hope: 370/1161 (+28 hope/week)] and calmed down his excitement. He took out his holy book and opened it, his eyes fell on the ‘light of dawn’.

The light of dawn seemed to know the purpose of George’s coming here. After feeling his gaze, the holy book in George’s hand seemed to be alive, flew in front of it, and kept turning it by itself.

As the pages kept turning, the words on the paper seemed to jump out of the book, forming three symbols in the air.

In George’s eyes, each of these three symbols had a line of notes, namely: [Dawn Seal] [Dawn Seal] [Song of Hope]

When he frowned a little strangely and looked at the [Dawn Seal], the stream of light on the symbol was like a waterfall, forming lines of symbols and explanations below.

[Dawn Seal:]

[Dawn Seal (Part 1) ‘Holy Fire’: Holy Fire burns some evil spirits and drives away darkness and evil. When the Holy Fire exists in the heart of the Templar Knight, each of his attacks will have a certain probability of striking Holy Fire on the enemy. If the target is an evil creature, it may completely ignite them!]

[Effect: +10%/20%/30% basic damage (holy attribute). Holy Fire has a purifying effect and can directly hit evil souls (ignoring defense), and can also be used to dispel curses and corruption on oneself.]

[Description: Hope is the source of power for the Templar Knights of the Dawn Cathedral. Therefore, the Holy Fire will burn with the determination of the user's heart, courage is undefeated, and the Holy Fire is inextinguishable.]

[Requirement: Gather 120 units of hope to complete your book]

[Dawn Seal (Part 2) ‘Justice’: The Templar Knight firmly believes in the power of justice, which can fill their bodies with strength. When the Templar Knight has the ‘Power of Justice’ seal in his heart, his power will be enhanced. There is a certain probability of knocking back, knocking over, or knocking away the enemy (a certain probability will ignore the opponent's physical condition. With the level of the power of justice, this probability and effect will become higher and higher)]

[Effect: +10%/20%/30% hitting and blocking strength (when dealing with weak and innocent people, this seal will be invalid due to the hesitation in the heart of the Templar)]

[Explanation: This power comes from the justice in the hearts of the Templars. When you hesitate, the weapons in your hands will become weak. 】

[Requirement: Gather 180 units of the power of hope to complete your book]

[Seal of Dawn (Part 3) ‘Thorns’]

[Seal of Dawn (Part 4]

George swore that he had never seen or heard anything about this kind of content when he was studying at St. Willem Lake Cathedral. So this knowledge is either top secret or unique to Dawn of Light!

George checked out the Seals of Dawn. Whether they were Holy Fire, Justice, Thorns, Courage, Honor, or Fearlessness, these Seals were extremely powerful, and most of them did not consume mana. They were pure combat skills! For a knight, this is a qualitative change!

But Sanctuary's 'power of hope' is extremely limited, so at most he can only choose one from the Seal of Dawn.

Shaking his head, George turned his attention to the [Seal of Dawn].

He found that there were many things he needed very much. There are some Dawn Seals that can increase the Dawn Knight's resistance to various attribute damage such as darkness, fire, etc.!

And compared to the Seal of Dawn, the power of hope required to condense a Seal of Dawn is also very small.

‘Although each holy seal can only increase one type of resistance, the base number of 10 is really high. ’

Other holy seals, such as 'Sacrifice', 'Suffering', etc., have amazing effects. Not only can they reduce the damage they suffer, but they can also be used on their comrades at critical moments.

But the price is consistent with the name

So George took one look and stopped looking at it - he didn't really like these things like 'sacrifice' and 'crucifixion', because he was the only Templar Knight in the current asylum.

George couldn't help but have a trace of bitterness on his face. He could imagine his powerful Templar Order in the future, but the shelter now required a lot of time.

But the dark clouds in the sky were about to hit his face

With a deep sigh, George slowly came back to his senses. I couldn't help but hear the noise in the back hall.

He followed the sounds and saw Aji and a group of veterans. Apparently they had completed their training and had been lying there peeping for who knows how long.

"The boss seems to be praying" "Every time he seems not very religious" "Last time I saw the boss snapping his fingers in front of the statue" "I know the boss's status is extraordinary, but it really won't attract Bad luck? "Shut up! You must be wrong."

George gave the group of people a hard look, and the door suddenly closed softly. Then the back hall became completely quiet.

‘His grandma, I really need to give them new ideological education when I have time. Hey, how do you want me to explain to my boss who let me go? Tell them that you are actually just the hope that survivors place in their hearts? ’

George sighed, feeling very depressed. Now tell them that they have no one to rely on and can only rely on themselves. It was really a bit too much for them to accept.

Ignoring those guys, he looked at [Song of Hope].

He remembered that there were many useful things in the holy scriptures held by the great priests. And the most complete set of 'Mantra Hymns' in front of him did not live up to his expectations.

[Song of Hope (Part 11) ‘Dawn Blessing’: Bless your companions and let them bathe in the light of dawn. Over a period of time, their resistance will be greatly improved. 】

[Effect: +3%/4%/5%*mana/holy power resistance. The increased resistance cannot exceed your ability (up to the energy injected is equal to the chant energy level). 】

[Requirement: Gather 100 units of the power of hope to complete your book]

After reading it again for the last time, George reluctantly looked away from the chapters like "Heavenly Guard" and "Heavenly Arms".

After calculating the 'hope' of the shelter and the number that could be achieved in a week, George raised his head, snapped his fingers at the dawn light (there was a sound of inhaling from the back hall), and pointed. Dawn Blessing' (100 Hopes), 'Holy Fire' (120 Hopes) and 'Dark Resistance' (60 Hopes).

At the moment when George made his choice, the light of dawn suddenly began to flow.

The entire lobby was shrouded in a gentle light, and the golden color falling from the glazed windows on both sides of the church and the dome was like the dawn that dispersed the dark night.

The mist walking slowly around the shelter seemed to be infected by this light, as if the monster's stung abdomen suddenly began to shrink and dissipate.

The shadows of angels appeared in the church one by one, and the low hymns suddenly echoed around.

In this light and sound, the holy scripture slowly merged into the light of dawn, and was gradually completely covered by the light. The dazzling ‘morning light’ also blinded George’s eyes.

George raised his hand and squinted his eyes, vaguely seeing that the holy book seemed to gradually separate into many extinction groups, and gradually disappeared in front of his eyes.

And all the surrounding light seemed to be converging on the location of the holy book. It was like being pulled over by countless hands.

When the light was no longer dazzling and became gentle again. A heavy, simple, metal-inlaid and nailed book reappeared in front of George.

And on this book, which was no less essential than the square hammer in his hand, there was a note like this:

[Incomplete Holy Relic - Book of Dawn]

[1. Brightness +5]

[2. Temporarily dispel the fog in your field of vision and let the sunlight out (time = wisdom/minute) - this beam of sunlight will follow you forward. ]

[3. When the Book of Dawn comes into contact with the sunlight, its location will be regarded as the range covered by the shelter (the range is determined by the brightness of the holder), and if you chant a hymn at this time, you will release a 'Dawn Hymn' (group +N seconds of health recovery, lasting 6 seconds, and purify the body of the person covered by the light. N = holder's wisdom)]

[Explanation: Although it is still incomplete, it is still part of the light of dawn. So as long as the warriors can get its recognition, then no matter when and where, those warriors can swear to become the "Knights Watching the Dawn" under its glory (don't you think it's a mouthful?). 】

"..."

The door of the back hall was smashed, and the crowded crowd fell to the ground, and the armor rustled.

Looking at this group of guys with open mouths, trembling chins, and lifeless eyes, George opened his mouth lightly and said a sentence:

"Let the people you protect have hope in their hearts, which is the greatest piety of your faith!"

The light on the holy book gradually disappeared, floating from the light of dawn to George's hand.

At this moment, in the eyes of everyone, the statue of the god of protection seemed to hand over a holy object to the lord in person.

These witnesses stood still, looking at all this with dull faces.

And this scene is like the ancient legend in the myth.

In the illustrations in the history books, the Dawn Knights surrounded George, knelt on one knee and prayed silently, which was extremely sacred. But all the myths and legends can no longer be studied after thousands of years.

Some people say that the holy object is about the future and the fate of the old world. Others say that it represents a new era.

But no matter what, from then on. Whenever these future "Dawn Knights" prayed, this scene would flash before their eyes.

And the words of the lord, whether they understood them or not, would always echo in their ears.

Thanks to "Ceramic Cup Guard" for the reward! ~
