LOL: Summoner of Goddess Janna

On the other side, the Baru Temple.

Before the "battle" footage that Tamm captures with a BBC-esque cut.

Although the atmosphere between the leaders and the Baru people was not too tense, it was not so friendly either.

Eluoyin insisted that Sarah and others accept the soul trial of the snake mother, otherwise nothing will be discussed. Sarah still wanted to mediate, so she simply put on an air of seeing off guests behind closed doors.

"Is there no other way?" In the end, Sarah could only ask helplessly: "Eluoyin, you clearly agree with the movement concept of Janna's theory. Although we are not believers in the same true God, we can seek common ground while reserving differences and become Intellectual companion."

"Why do you have to make it difficult for us and let us risk our lives to participate in the trial?"

"Sarah." Oluoyin's tone quietly slowed down: "It is not my intention to let the leader participate in the soul trial, but Nagakaporos' will."

"And my lord has no hostility towards the leader—"

"The soul trial is not her making things difficult for you, but a gift to you."

"Gift?" Sarah cursed in her heart.

Can it be considered a gift for people to participate in such a life-threatening trial?

"Of course." Eluoyin nodded seriously.

Nagakaporos's soul trial, did anyone come to participate if they wanted to?

Even among the Baru people, only those who have been paid attention by the snake mother and who can understand the true meaning of the movement are eligible to participate in the trial.

If you fail the test, you will die. But if the trial is successful, the snake mother will also give corresponding rewards according to the performance of the subjects.

Isn't that how Eluoyin's powerful divine power came about?

"Isn't this considered a gift?" She waved her casserole-sized fist and persuaded Sarah in this way.

"It's... okay." Although Sarah was reluctant, she also felt that what Eluoyin said made sense.

In the eyes of the Baru people, the leader, as a heretic, can still be invited to participate in the soul trial. This is the rare kindness of Nagakaporos.

They should be grateful, why are they still so repulsive?

Sarah realized that in the face of this violent conflict of cultures and customs, if she did not accept the trial as the Romans did, then the cooperation might not come to fruition.

If she doesn't take a risk, she won't be recognized by the Baru people.

The leader doesn't know when he will be able to enter Bilgewater, and Planck... that bastard, will continue to do evil.

"If it can make that guy die a few days earlier...then I'm willing to try!" Sarah gritted her teeth and made a decision.

"I accept the soul trial of the snake mother."

"But I have one condition - I am enough to participate in the trial, there is no need for all of us to take risks."

"I'm their chief. If I can pass the test, it's enough to show that the leader can understand the true meaning of the movement and be recognized by the snake mother, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Eluoyin thought about it seriously.

Indeed, even among the Baru people, only a few can see the true meaning.

It is indeed too harsh to require all leaders to pass the test.

"Okay..." So Eluoyin caressed the statue of the god and murmured, as if communicating with the god.

Then she said, "Sarah, the Lord grants your request."

"Follow me up to the altar—the trial will begin now."

"Hmm." Sarah mustered up her courage and nodded heavily.

Zach and the others looked at her with great concern, but in the end no one stopped her.

Because everyone knows the importance of this visit. Since the Baru people have put forward uncompromising demands, someone must take risks for the ideal cause and collective interests.

Sarah is the military chief of this group and the leader with the highest position in the meeting. It is only natural for her to go first when she has difficulties.

Just like that, Sarah followed Iluoyin to the altar.

As Tam and Lena saw, Iroin drew out Sarah's soul and summoned countless tentacles of the Snake Mother around the altar.

"Well... my soul..."

The feeling of being pulled out of the soul by Iluoyin can be said to be very wonderful.

Sarah's consciousness is still in the body, and she can still control her physical body like a normal person.

But she could clearly see that her soul had been pulled out of her body—the spirit body version of herself was less than ten meters away from her.

Between the spiritual body and the physical body, there is only an empty soul thread connecting them.

And Sarah can feel even more strangely that her soul has indeed been drawn out... Although the consciousness is still in the body, she always feels that "she" is actually outside the physical body, in the spirit body.

"It's about to start." Eluoyin reminded kindly.

Then in the next second, the thick and ferocious spirit tentacles mercilessly slapped Sarah's soul and body with overwhelming violence.

Sarah can't control her soul that has been drawn out of her body at all, she can only control her physical body.

When she managed to control the physical body dangerously, dodged the countless tentacles that fell like a meteorite rain, and was about to breathe a sigh of relief...

Her soul, which remained in place, was still hit by the tentacle.

"Ah!" Sarah screamed in pain, "Bastard, bastard..."

"It turns out that if the soul is hit, the damage will be reflected back to the body!"

Her soul was unable to move, so she could only stand and be beaten.

So is this still hiding?

"The soul can't be manipulated, and you can't hide from it, but there were many people who passed the test before..." Sarah couldn't help thinking:

"Then this trial should be able to be overcome by willpower and resistance?"

Soul Trial Soul Trial, as the name suggests... Shouldn't the test be willpower, spiritual power, and the strength of the soul?

In this way, hard resistance seems to be the correct solution.

Sarah thought so.

So she simply lay down obediently in front of those tentacles, and did not hide.

"Come on! Isn't it just a competition of willpower? Who is afraid of whom!"

Sarah yelled for courage.

She has been burdened with the blood feud of her parents since she was a child, fighting and fighting in the dangerous world of pirates with her own strength, and has come step by step to today as a girl.

Will her willpower be weak? of course not!

"I will definitely not fall here!" Sarah stood resolutely in front of the tentacles that were slapped head-on, allowing these thick and hideous tentacles to bombard, entangle, and even penetrate her seemingly weak body.

She's Miss Fortune, she's an avenger, and she's a leader. She will not lose!

And she did come through. but...

"Hey, Sarah!" Seeing Sarah standing upright like a wooden stake and being beaten, Eluoyin couldn't help reminding kindly:

"My lord's soul trial is not a test of willpower, but your understanding of the true meaning of sports."

"So you have to exercise, exercise, understand?"

Sarah: "Uh..."

The examiner revealed the idea of ​​solving the problem, and she finally understood:

Sports, the understanding of the true meaning of sports... This is the test question!

She shouldn't stand and be beaten so foolishly, but should insist on fighting Iluoyin with her body under the pain of whipping her soul——Move, move!

"Wait..." The train of thought figured out, but Sarah was inexplicably stunned there.

Seeing that the tentacle was about to hit her fragile body mercilessly again, Eluoyin couldn't stand it anymore: "Hey, what are you doing? Move! Move and attack me!"

She taught Sarah her own problem-solving experience.

Back then, she endured the painful whipping of the snake mother's tentacles and insisted on fighting back during the movement. Only then did she finally gain the approval of Nagakaporos and become a powerful sea beast priest.

Now this successful experience is here...

Sarah, you are moving!

"Am I not moving?" Sarah asked suddenly.

"Huh?" E Luoyin was slightly taken aback.

"I've been exercising." Sarah said again, standing still.

Tentacles hit her head-on like a storm.

But she stood there quietly like an enlightened monk: "Since this trial is about exercise, it is an understanding of the true meaning of exercise."

"Then how can you say I'm not exercising?"

Sarah closed her eyes, and silently recited the theory of "Janna Movement Viewpoint":

Movement is the fundamental property of matter, and there is no matter in the world that does not move.

Motion is absolute, while stillness is relative. Stillness is just a special state of motion.

Everything is in perpetual motion under any conditions.

"I am not moving relative to the ground now, but what about the sun in the sky? Just change the reference object, and 'stationary' will no longer exist. Everything changes, only motion is eternal."

"I am always in motion, and all matter is always in motion, endlessly."

As soon as this statement came out...

Iluoyin was silent, and the priests of Baru were also silent.

Even those tentacles that were bombarding Sarah stopped suddenly at this moment.

They don't move. But also moving.

"You..." Eluoyin murmured and sighed, "You... have realized the true meaning!"

Sarah doesn't seem to be moving, but she really knows how to move.

No one has ever tried before to pass the trial in this way.

Even Eluoyin himself only noticed the literal meaning of "movement" to answer the questions left by the snake mother.

On the contrary, there are quite a few people who are foolishly stiff, and seem to have given the same answer as Sarah.

But they don't understand the true meaning, they are just a stake.

But Sarah really understood the truth.

"You passed, Sarah." Iluoyin sighed deeply.

But Sarah didn't stop.

"I only showed my understanding of sports, but I haven't shown the 'sports' I'm after." Sarah looked up at the tentacles of spirit bodies that seemed to have consciousness, and said aloud with a serious expression:

"All we have to lose in this struggle are our chains. What we have gained is the whole world..."

The Priests of Baru couldn't understand: "What is she doing?"

"She..." the sailors replied: "She is reciting the manifesto of our leader."

why is that?

The Baru people were puzzled, but the sailors realized something: "In the movement theory of our leader, human movement can be divided into six categories according to the form:"

"From simple to complex, they are in order—mechanical movement, physical movement, chemical movement, life movement, arcane movement, and social movement."

"Among them, social movements are the most complex, including the contradictory movements between productive forces and production relations, and the contradictory movements between the economic base and the superstructure."

"And the movement that we leaders want to implement is the most complex social movement."

"What we want to promote is nothing but the development process of the entire human society!"

The declarations of the leaders are the starting gun for this mighty social movement.

When Sarah recites the manifesto, she is showing the movement she adheres to as a leader.

She was telling Nagakaporos that their leaders not only understood the true meaning of the movement, but had also put into practice it.

Their movement will be more violent and far-reaching than any social movement in human history!

"You do have insight into the true meaning." In the dark, Sarah seemed to hear a voice.

The voice was ethereal and lofty, as if it came from the bottomless abyss, or from the boundless universe:

"I recognize you—the real one."

"Take it, Janna's emissary. This is my gift to the Wind of Change." While speaking, a dark green light glowed on the altar.

The tentacle forest standing on top like a giant tree collapsed under the light.

The divine power that constitutes the tentacles of the spirit body scattered into infinite light spots, but it did not dissipate because of this.

They swirled rapidly around Sarah like a vortex, and finally poured into Sarah's body in the form of a sea of ​​rivers.

"The real one... this is the real one's ceremony!" The priests of Baru were all shocked.

This kind of thing has never happened to a foreigner. This unique gift represents Mother Snake's recognition of the leader.

"Mother Snake, bestow divine power on her!"
