Chapter 23: The Church

The Church of the Holy Church is one of the most ancient powers in the world, and its roots cannot be traced back. It is said that in the last civilization era, when the gods walked in the world, the saints founded the church under the guidance of God. Leading the world to pursue the glory and brilliance of God.

In the era of great navigation, after the discovery of the New World, not only the iron hooves of the imperial powers set foot on this land, but also the sacred glory was successfully spread under the escort of strong ships and sharp guns, and quickly took root and sprouted, and grew stronger. Today, it has become A colossus beyond the imagination of the world.

Even in this era, the extraordinary is silent, the brilliance of God no longer appears in the world, and the strength and influence of the church have not weakened much. Not only are there branches of the church in every country and every region, their beliefs are even more popular, directly became the mainstream of the world's beliefs.

Compared to the Hunter Guild, a hidden capital giant like this behind the scenes, the Church of the Holy Church can not only exist in the world openly, promote the belief and glory of God, but also directly exert and expand its influence in various fields, and establish itself in the world civilization system. An unassailable position.

Powerful power, lofty status, astonishing wealth, unparalleled prestige, enough to shake the influence of the world, this is the true portrayal of the Holy Church.

It is said that before 1958, the entire state of Florida belonged to the St. Augustine Diocese of the Church of the Holy Church. The monks of the church established churches, schools, and cemeteries one after another on this land, holding all the rights With faith, no one can shake its position.

Later, although due to the development of the times and the great changes in the world structure, the Church of the Holy Church had to give up some rights, but the ownership of these lands was still firmly in their hands.

This is the origin of the Holy Church Diocese in Miami. As the headquarters of the Holy Church Church in Florida, the strength of this parish is quite strong. There are nearly 2,000 people in the supernatural power on the surface.

Although most of the two thousand people are priests, deacons, monks, and nuns, who are ordinary civil servants who are mainly responsible for church work, there are also singing classes, seminaries, knight orders, and courts that specialize in combating evil and heresy. The powerful combat department exists.

But these have nothing to do with Luo Ning, he just came here to buy some holy water and go back to replenish the stock.

Holy water has a wide range of functions. It can not only restore physical strength, replenish magic power, but also heal injuries and eliminate abnormal states. For hunters, it is the most cost-effective recovery product. Naturally, more reserves should be made to deal with various emergencies.

However, the holy water is also in great demand within the church. The choirs of the singing class, the magicians of the seminary, the apologist knights of the church knights and the heretic judges of the tribunal are all big consumers of holy water. , plus various ceremonies and masses, the consumption of this holy water can be imagined.

Therefore, although the Church of the Holy Church sells holy water, all of them are limited to purchase, and Luo Ning can't guarantee that he will be able to buy it this time.

...

The Cathedral of Our Lady of Scale is the main church of the Sanctuary of Miami, and it is also the selling point of holy water. Although other churches also have holy water reserves, they are not qualified to sell them. If you want to buy holy water, you can only come here.

With the financial resources of the Holy Church Church, it is natural that they will not be stingy with the main church of this continental diocese. Not only is it resplendently built, but it is full of magnificence and dignity, and it also reveals a sacred and solemn atmosphere, just like a real picture scroll. The artistic image of the church is fully displayed.

It's a pity that Luo Ning was not interested in these at all, and went directly to the holy water sales place.

He was received by a priest of the church, a rather round figure, although wearing priest's clothes, he looked more like a businessman.

His face was full of smiles, and when he saw Luo Ning, he shouted: "Oh, Luo Ning, my friend, may God's light bless you, what do you need this time?"

"..."

Looking at the priest with the face of a profiteer in front of him,

Luo Ning silently put a small box on the counter and said, "How much holy water is there?"

"Holy water No. 10, let me see..."

The priest took out the notebook and checked it for a while, then made an apologetic expression, and said, "What a coincidence, the tenth series of holy water this month is all sold out."

"sold out?"

Luo Ning frowned and asked, "Isn't it just the beginning of the month?"

The priest shook his head and smiled, and said: "It was a good month, but I don't know what happened recently. Various incidents happened frequently. Many people came to buy holy water. The Hunter's Guild, the Mage's Association, and the Federation are all asking us to deepen Collaborate, offer in bulk, so...you get the idea!"

"..."

Looking at this profiteer, Luo Ning resisted the urge to draw his gun, and continued to ask, "What else?"

Seeing this, the smile on the priest's face became even brighter, and he said, "The ordinary No. 10 series holy water is gone, but there are still ten bottles of the exquisite No. 10 series holy water. How about it? Are you interested?"

"How many?"

"Three thousand dollars each!"

With a blank expression on his face, Luo Ning pushed the box in front of him and said coldly, "2500 pieces, that's all I have!"

"Um……"

The priest picked up the box and shook it by his ear. Hearing the sound coming from inside, he smiled brightly and said, "Well, who made you my Lance's friend!"

After finishing speaking, he put away the box, took out another square box from the counter, pushed it in front of Luo Ning, and said, "Ten exquisite number ten holy water, please count them, and no refund will be given if you leave the counter! "

Luo Ning opened the box and looked at the ten "exquisite" No. 10 holy water that was no different from ordinary No. 10 holy water. There was only one thought in his mind, which was to pull out the gun and let the profiteer in front of him see his own brains.

Luo Ning's killing intent was raging, but Lance didn't care. He still said, "Don't look so ugly. You are already very lucky. If you come a little later, you might not even have these ten holy water."

Luo Ning glanced at him, then said nothing, put away the box of holy water, turned around and was about to leave.

"and many more!"

At this time, Lance stopped Luo Ning and said, "I have a mission here, I don't know if you are interested."

"I have no interest in entrusting profiteers!"

"Ten pieces of holy water with number nine sequence!"

"..."

Luo Ning stopped in his tracks, turned around, and asked blankly, "What mission?"

Lance smiled and said, "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that I received news this morning that two colleagues from the church had accidents and went to bathe in the glory of God early, so I want you to bring their bodies back. By the way Find out how they died."

Luo Ning frowned and asked, "What accident caused the monks of the two churches to die for no reason?"

Lance shrugged and said, "It's said that a girl was possessed by a demon. The two of them went to exorcise the demon, but something happened. One had a heart attack, and the other jumped from upstairs. They all died."

Hearing these words, Luo Ning frowned even more: "Devil?"

"probably!"

Lance nodded and said: "But you don't need to worry too much. One of the two is too old and has a bad heart, and the other is drinking all day long, mentally confused, and exorcism accidents are also normal things. You Just help me bring the corpse back, and then go to the house where they died to see if there are any clues, and you may not meet that demon."

Luo Ning sneered and asked, "Why don't you go if it's so simple?"

"I don't have other jobs."

Lance smiled embarrassingly, and continued: "This task shouldn't be too difficult for you, right? The holy water of the ninth sequence is something that money can't buy, so you're not tempted?"

Luo Ning saw through his thoughts at a glance, but he didn't expose it. He just asked, "Where are the other people in the church? They don't want you to deal with that demon alone, do they?"

"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from your eyes!"

Lance smiled awkwardly, and said: "Recently, various incidents have occurred frequently, and the church has a severe shortage of manpower, and there is really no way to transfer them to other places, so... In this way, I will add 20 bottles of No. 10 holy water, you see no?"

Luo Ning was expressionless: "A demon, this little reward is not enough!"

"To be precise, it's just a possessed demon!"

Seeing Luo Ning's unmoved look, Lance had no choice but to take out a long silver box from under the counter with a helpless face, pushed it in front of Luo Ning, and said, "This one can deal with it!"

"Um……"

Luo Ning opened the box and saw a dagger lying quietly in the box, shining with a faint sacred light.

Templar Blade

Equipment quality: dark blue

Equipment Type: Dagger

Equipment Materials: Steel, Silver, Holy Power

Equipment effect: holy blade (this dagger contains a lot of holy power, which can cause great damage to demons)

Introduction: The special weapon made by the temple is specially used for hunting demons, but because of the material problem, it cannot withstand the conflict between the holy power and the evil power, so it can only be used as a one-time item.

Looking at the dagger in the box, Luo Ning was silent for a while, and finally asked: "Only one?"

These words made Langston's eyes widen, and he said repeatedly: "What do you think this is, it would be nice to have one!"

Luo Ning ignored him and said directly: "I want the holy water now. If you kill that demon, whether you use it or not, this weapon will belong to me, and the other trophies will also belong to me."

"you……"

Facing Luo Ning's machete, Lance finally felt the feeling of being slaughtered, but he had no way to refuse, so he gritted his teeth and agreed, "Yes, but you must bring back the corpses of my two colleagues .”

"no problem!"

Luo Ning smiled and said, "Then, would you like to entrust this commission to our firm?"

"Um……"

Lance frowned. He didn't understand why Luo Ning asked such a question, but he nodded and agreed: "Of course, otherwise, why are we wasting so much time?"
