My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu

Chapter 270 Arriving at the Holy See

The time hourglass's ability to measure time is more precise, and Crown can now grasp the passage of time more accurately.

If he is willing, he can be accurate to one-tenth of a millisecond, but it is not of much help at the moment. Accurate sensing of milliseconds is enough for use, and there is more.

This time the spirit control was advanced and could accommodate more Sands of Time. Crown took out two golden spirit coins to absorb the spirit essence.

Thanks to his own strength, the time it takes to absorb spiritual essence is now greatly reduced.

In just forty minutes, the spiritual essence in the golden spirit coin had been completely devoured, and then the spirit coin could no longer maintain its original form and turned into gray-white powder and scattered.

Finally, it took six gold spirit coins to fill up the time hourglass.

The corner of Krahn's mouth raised slightly. Not long after he released the bullet, the Time Hourglass advanced to the third level. The Sand of Time did not consume much before the advancement.

He now roughly estimates that the reserves of the Sand of Time are 1.5 times the original, which is a significant increase.

Attaching his consciousness to the second star at the base of the hourglass, Crown felt that the number of times he could use Time Stop increased by one.

His consciousness continued to move, attached to the third silver star, and noticed that the bullet time lasted for 54 minutes, but the acceleration effect did not change, still only increasing by 15%.

Relatively speaking, he would rather the duration not be increased in exchange for a stronger acceleration effect.

It turned out that more than half an hour of fighting time was enough to meet his basic needs, and it would take less time to end the fighting faster.

Then there is the effect of time retrieval, which can retrace what happened thirty-six hours ago.

If this skill is given to a detective or criminal investigation officer, it is undoubtedly the best. If he is also an investigator, this skill is also the best.

It's a bit useless to him now, at least it's not of much use now.

Crown sat on a chair, picked up a wine glass, stretched out his arm, and then let go of his hand. His other hand followed it earlier.

Under the influence of gravity, the wine glass fell to the ground and was caught firmly in mid-air. He recorded the falling time in his mind.

Finally, there was the test of time clockwork skills. Crown activated his ability, and he noticed a gray light in the air around him.

Pick up the glass again, straighten your arm and let go, and record the time it takes to fall the same distance.

Crown concluded that under the force field of the time clock, the falling speed of the wine glass was reduced by approximately 10%.

I don’t know if this change will have the same effect on objects with different speeds. If it can be treated equally, this skill has great potential.

Thinking of this, he immediately stopped the time clock, summoned the Fire Cube, and created a metal clone.

Seeing that most of the color on the surface of the clone's body was already golden, the smile on his lips grew wider.

Gold is not the color of bronze alloy, but the color of the magic-breaking metal after the original silver iron essence is smudged by the golden light seal.

After this period of hard work, most of the iron essence has been transformed, and the next step will be to transform copper, tin, lead and other metal essences.

If he has free time, he plans to use the Golden Light Seal to transform some of the refined metal, maybe it will be used some time.

He conveyed the instructions and recorded the time it took for the metal clone to slash using different powers.

The clone can control its own power as precisely as a machine, making it very suitable for this testing job.

Then he released the time clock again, the force field appeared again, and the metal clone began to slash.

After the tests were completed, Crown concluded:

First, Clockwork of Time is a passive continuous skill that will automatically take effect after release and continue to consume the Sands of Time until it is actively canceled or the reserved ‘raw materials’ are consumed;

Second, under the force field of the time clockwork, no matter what the speed of the object itself is, the speed will be reduced by 10%;

Third, the range of the force field is not large, only two meters around the body.

Fourth, the duration of the time clockwork does not affect the release of time.

He observed the consumption of the Sands of Time and calculated that if the Sands of Time were sufficient, the time clock could be maintained for three minutes.

The effect of this skill is more suitable for combat than Time Stop. After all, Time Stop consumes the Sands of Time much more, not to mention that Time Stop is affected by the speed of objects.

Moreover, when the kinetic energy of the object is sufficient, the consumption of the Sands of Time by activating Time Standstill will increase, which is an unstable factor.

After experimenting with the new features of the Time Hourglass, Croun spent all his time meditating on the Golden Light Spell and using the Golden Light Seal.

Seeing the proficiency of the Golden Light Spell and Fire Breath skills slowly but surely increasing, his heart felt full and satisfied.

. . . .

The speed of the airship slowly decreased, and golden sunlight shone through the viewing window into the interior of the airship.

Crown looked down at the land and saw the outline of the small city in the distance below gradually getting larger, with streets like criss-crossing lines dividing the city.

On these 'lines', carriages and pedestrians are like densely packed insects and ants.

The height of the airship continued to decrease, and a tall red building rose from the ground in the city center. It has a tall spire and pointed arches, full of the beauty of Gothic architectural style.

Viewed from a height, the building looks like a blooming flame flower.

Around the city, one can see airship parking lots, and the sky is also a busy scene.

Flanders pointed at the tall building and said, "That's St. Peter's Basilica, the seat of the Holy See."

There was joy in his tone, and a hint of sadness.

Lannister looked away from the building and asked in a deep voice:

"Are we still together when we get to St. Peter's Basilica?"

He passed by here a few days ago, and then left in a hurry. Unexpectedly, he went back to Bly City again.

The archbishop said: "Of course not, I will send you to the cathedral first, and the bishop responsible for receiving you will be entertained by the church.

As for when you can see the Pope, I don't know. "

It was somewhat inconvenient to have a silver warlock by his side, and he wished he could have thrown him to the Pope as soon as possible.

As for whether the other party can get permission to go to Rhine City again, it depends on the other party's methods.

Normally, the Pope would not expel a strong silver man without reason, even if he himself had a bad opinion of the Brotherhood.

"I understand. Thank you for your hospitality these days."

Lannister nodded slightly, the other party's arrangement did not exceed his expectations.

He had already been thinking about finding a good reason to stay in the Rhine City of Faruk Kingdom, and now he had thought of a good excuse.

Turning his head, he smiled and said: "Sir Crown, I look forward to the day when we meet next time. We will definitely be able to become very good trading partners."

The original plan failed, and he had to do something, at least get a trade agreement back, otherwise he would appear to be incompetent.

"Then I will wait for your arrival in Hamers City."

Crown responded politely. The potion has a huge impact on the spirit master. If the Brotherhood has no other means, it will definitely actively contact him.

What he needs to do is control the output of the medicine, and then earn as much profit as possible.

Everyone felt a slight shock, and the airship landed on the land of Bly City, the holy city of the Lord of Fire Church, arrived.

After getting off the airship, a few people hired a six-carriage and drove towards the city. The other entourage would look for them after handing over to the parking lot.

There was a carriage in the parking lot that the church was responsible for receiving, but Flanders had no choice.

Crown saw the wide road through the glass of the carriage and asked: "Approximately what is the population of Bly City?"

From the air, the city's outline is much larger than that of Rhine City. Compared with this place, Hamers City is like a baby compared with an elephant.

Cavendi said: "Not counting the surrounding villages and towns, there are about 400,000 people. This is the data from five years ago.

I saw that the city has been expanded to the west and south. Judging from the construction area, the current population is at least 450,000. "

Lannister couldn't help but sigh: "The total population of the entire Xideni Island is only about 500,000 people. The population of the largest city there is less than 100,000 people."

The foundation of any church can crush the Warlock Brotherhood in terms of population. However, the proportion of warlocks on Xideni Island is much higher than the proportion of combatants in the church.

The good thing is that as the spiritual concentration of the world continues to increase, more and more children will have the talent of warlocks.

The carriage sped through the wide streets of the city and arrived at St. Peter's Basilica two hours later.

Flanders took Lannister out of the carriage and walked into the church.

About half an hour later the Archbishop returned and the carriage moved on.

The archbishop sat in his seat and said with a smile: "We will meet with other silver archbishops at the Laurel Hotel on Codivat Street to discuss some things. This has been agreed upon.

If all goes well, we will head to St. Peter's Basilica the day after tomorrow. "

Cavendi said: "The Laurel Inn is adjacent to the street where the church is located, only 20 minutes away."

Crown understood that this was for him and responded with a smile: "It's very close."

After the Silver Warlock left, the three chatted more casually, and Flanders told many interesting stories about his stay here when he was young.

. . . .

Laurel Inn.

As its name suggests, this hotel is elegantly furnished and has the fragrance of laurel inside.

When Crown and others arrived, they found that other bishops were already waiting here.

Seeing the arrival of three powerful men of silver rank from the Rhine City Diocese, the surprise and envy on the faces of the other red archbishops could not be concealed.

In a small conference room, Flanders happily introduced:

"Let me introduce you two first. This is Archbishop Martin Hodges of Cologne Cathedral in the Diocese of Branden."

Crown and Cavendi bowed and saluted: "Good day, Archbishop Martin."

Martin sighed: "We are old friends with Cavendi. His ability to advance to silver is not unexpected, but this young man..."

Flender interrupted: "Young people will be introduced last, haha.

This is Archbishop Ivan Hall of the Antonine Cathedral in Kronborg.

This is Archbishop Leo Duma of the Flame Cathedral of Saxony.

Everyone knows Mr. Cavendi, so I won’t introduce him again.

This young man is the youngest bishop of Rhine City, and should also be the youngest Silver-level warrior in the history of the church, His Excellency Croun Moya, who is twenty-six years old this year. "

His tone was calm, but he couldn't hide the showoff inside. The corners of his mouth were raised high, and he was obviously in a very good mood.

At this moment, Crown felt that the archbishop was like a parent whose child was admitted to a prestigious university.

Martin took the lead in applauding, laughing and scolding: "I didn't hear anything from Flanders beforehand. He was really well hidden."

A twenty-six-year-old silver transcendent, he never dared to be so big in his dreams. When he was twenty-six years old, he was only a second-level exorcist priest.

"Congratulations to the Holy Fire Cathedral for acquiring this genius."

"Twenty-six years old?! I feel old."

Flanders enjoyed the envious gazes for a while, then asked everyone to sit down.

Martin said: "Your Excellency, we originally agreed to come to St. Peter's Cathedral after winter. Otherwise, our diocese is very likely to have another silver-ranked priest. Why should we bring it forward?"

Flender's face returned to calm, and he frowned slightly:

"Dear old friends, something big happened in Rhine City, and I had to decide to come here in advance."

He told the story of the airship's reconnaissance findings in the Andes Mountains, and sighed:

"The Kingdom of Faruk will not be peaceful for long. You must help me get more reinforcements.

I suspect that there is also a city of evil gods in the Andes Mountains, otherwise this strange phenomenon cannot be explained. "

After leaving Hamers City and returning to Rhine City, he went to the reconnaissance location in person and found that the number of cultists and weird monsters gathered there was even larger. He estimated that the number of enemies exceeded 60,000.

The number of extraordinary people among these people was close to one-fifth. He really couldn't understand why there were so many extraordinary-level enemies.

At that time, only three days had passed since the last close reconnaissance. I don’t know how many enemies will accumulate when the long winter passes, and what kind of threats the Rhine City Parish will face.

When the other archbishops heard this information, their faces showed solemn expressions.

According to church records, it was not until the end of the last holy war that the evil god landed on the land of the Kingdom of Faruk. At that time, it was not called Faruk.

If Flanders's analysis is correct, the pressure faced by the church is much stronger than that of the last holy war.

Leo asked in a low voice: "What preparations have you made now?"

Flanders showed a smile of relief:

“Compared with the last holy war when we could only use the flesh and blood of soldiers to block the torrent of enemy attacks, this time we have a large number of firearms and weapons that ordinary people can use.

In this way, ordinary people can also play a role in the war. If these steel weapons can eliminate low-level extraordinary beings, our chances of winning will be much greater. "

Ivan touched the beard on his chin with his hand and said cautiously:

"The mortal world has changed really fast in these years. The power of the Church of the God of Knowledge has increased rapidly. It doesn't seem to be a bad thing now."

According to the church's records, humans can only rely on their own strength to fight various mutant monsters, resulting in heavy casualties.

After the battle, there were only a handful of humans left. Now that we have weapons that ordinary people can use, things may change for the better.

Martin was a little worried: "There are many monsters in the evil god's team that can confuse people's hearts. I don't know whether using a large number of these firearms is good or bad."
