My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu
Chapter 348 The transformation of the magic circle in the sanctuary
Osman reached out and pressed down twice, gesturing for Crown to sit down. Then he looked around, his eyes sharply scanning everyone, and said in a deep voice:
"Bishop Crown Moya, there is no doubt that you are powerful, but I think you should take on more responsibilities.
The church is now standing at a crossroads. It seems to be in bloom, but in fact it is plagued by internal and external troubles.
Within the Kingdom of Faruk, the royal family and the church seem to be at odds with each other; while externally, the evil god is resurrecting at an ever-increasing speed, and a situation like the one in the Hinterlands will soon occur in other countries.
As a fifth-level transcendent of the church, you should think about issues in the interests of the church.
Becoming a cardinal, and then becoming a pope, leading the church to become stronger is your responsibility. "
The Pope's words aroused discussion among other archbishops.
"If the first fifth-level transcendent on the mainland becomes the pope, the weight of the church in the eyes of other churches will definitely increase a lot."
"As members of the church, it is our duty to safeguard the interests of the church."
“Isn’t it the honor and the dream of every member of the Church to be the Pope?”
Of course, there are also different opinions, and some cardinals with sufficient qualifications have expressed opposition.
These people are already extraordinary beings of the Silver rank. They were originally the most powerful contenders for the position of Pope. When the current Pope steps down, the Pope will choose one of them.
Now a 'newcomer' suddenly appears, seemingly trained by the Pope, which makes these people who have been senior for many years very dissatisfied.
"Bishop Crown's record really impresses us, but if you want to sit on the position of Cardinal Archbishop, it's not just about having enough force."
A thin archbishop with a gray beard spoke slowly:
"Yes, the ability to handle academic affairs and negotiate with other churches is also an important part of a cardinal archbishop.
I have carefully studied Bishop Crown's resume. His position is either full-time combat or providing logistics for the troops.
He is a powerful Crusader and an excellent blacksmith, but he is not a good leader. "
Flanders glanced at Crown and agreed:
"I agree with Archbishop Ofir Lane that Crown's leadership skills are truly unfit to lead the diocese."
Compared with letting Crown become a red archbishop and being entangled in trivial matters, giving him more time to improve his strength is the most correct thing. If he could become a sixth-level transcendent as quickly as possible, he would be more helpful to the church, and many problems would not be a problem.
The gray-bearded Archbishop suddenly beamed with joy:
"Archbishop Flanders is the direct superior of His Excellency Crown, and his opinions have strong reference value."
The cardinals were divided into two camps and had a heated discussion.
Crown sat on the chair and felt that it was so noisy here.
Osman stood up, interrupted everyone's discussion, and said:
“Everyone, I believe that no matter which argument you support, the purpose is for the prosperity of the church.
Regarding the issue of Bishop Crown's leadership, it is not a problem at all. As long as he gets enough experience, he will definitely be able to become an outstanding leader.
Since everyone's differences are serious, we will postpone this issue and put it to a vote on the day after the meeting ends.
Now, let’s discuss the next question: the impact of the situation in the Kingdom of the Hinterlands on us.
Although Farooq and the Hinterlands are not bordering each other, our southernmost point is only one hundred and twenty kilometers away from the Hinterlands, and the rushing Taine River connects the two kingdoms together in another sense.
The coastline of the Hinterlands is not particularly far from R'lyeh, the evil city that sank on the seabed. The Familia of R'lyeh's master, Cthulhu, are all sea monsters, and they command countless murloc armies.
Whether they are the Evil God's Familia or the Murlocs, they can all leave the ocean and adapt to the fresh water of the river, which is the most troublesome thing. "
After a moment of silence, someone began to speak actively:
"Is it possible to build a dam on the upper reaches of the Taine River entering the Kingdom of Ribia? The river there is only four or five kilometers wide. This is completely feasible."
“Come on, it’s the flood season on the Taine River, the water flow is so fast, it’s simply not realistic to build a dam.
Besides, what do we think about establishing the Church of the God of Knowledge in the Dam? If it weren't for the danger of the evil god, the relationship between our two families would not be harmonious.
Another very important point is that based on our experience in the town of Lorent, a branch of the Rhine River that flows into the sea, fish people can swim upstream forty to fifty kilometers a day, and deep divers are faster.
There are dense rivers in the Hinterlands Kingdom, and it has been more than two months since the Sinsaro seaport was lost. Maybe the fishmen have sneaked into our country. "
Before the Red Moon Incident, the relationship between the various divine churches was not happy. In order to protect more churchgoers, there was a lot of friction between the borders of the kingdom.
Only after the threat of the evil god surfaced did the various churches show some restraint.
The Kingdom of Faruk has always been called a foreign land by other countries, and its relations with other countries are very ordinary.
As the Kingdom of Rybia took the lead in using steam engines to set off an industrial trend, a large number of people from the Farouk Kingdom smuggled to Rybia because life there was better.
Therefore, there is constant friction between the Church of the Lord of Fire and the Church of the God of Knowledge. It was not until Osman advocated the introduction of Rybia's technology and at the same time stepped up efforts to crack down on smuggling that the trend of people leaving slowed down.
Crown did not participate in the discussion. At this time, one more person is not more, and one less person is not more.
He couldn't visualize at this time. He was very bored sitting in the chair, so he simply started thinking about swordsmanship and practiced it in his mind.
The Cross Sword had been pushed to its limit, and he began to think about how to push this swordsmanship to its limit.
The improvement in skills from the extreme to the extreme is comparable to the improvement from the first level to the extreme.
Currently, he only has three skills that have reached the extreme level, basic swordsmanship, shooting \u0026 archery, and animal taming. These skills all provide very useful passive abilities.
Two days have passed. The Cardinals' Conference discussed many issues in the past few days, but no more useful solutions were proposed.
The only good news is that the armor and weapons built by the church for the Silver Rank are almost complete and will be delivered in a few days.
At the end of the day's meeting, the cardinals left the sanctuary.
Soon, a group of craftsmen poured into the underground passage of the sanctuary. They took the drawings and made fine adjustments to the magic circle.
Osman stood motionless in the middle of the passage, watching the craftsmen working.
The light from the torch flickered on and off, casting the pope's ever-twisting shadow on the wall.
Theo and Moon walked back and forth, urging the craftsmen to speed up.
In the past few days, whenever the cardinal meeting ends, they have to stay and supervise the work.
Moon walked up to the Pope and said cautiously:
"Your Majesty, we can just keep an eye on this place. We won't delay. You can go back and rest."
Osman gave him a cold look and said:
"You said it would be finished tonight, are you sure?"
"OK, the craftsmen estimate that it will be completed at ten o'clock in the evening. After completion, we will conduct preliminary tests and will compile the most detailed test report for you early tomorrow morning."
"I'm here to test it myself. This change of the magic circle is confidential. After the completion, you lead the craftsmen to leave the sanctuary."
"Uh ok."
Moon bowed slightly, "Your Majesty, I'm going to urge these craftsmen to work harder. I can't keep you waiting."
“Ensuring quality is the most important thing.”
"Understood," Munn backed away and returned to where the craftsmen were working. Theo immediately came over and said in a low voice:
"How is it? What do you say, Your Majesty?"
"Your Majesty requested to test the magic circle in person, and it will be tested tonight. Do you know what kind of magic circle this magic circle is? The craftsmen said that the pattern of the magic circle is completely different from the previous ones."
Theo shook his head: "His Majesty gave this to me. He didn't tell me, and I can't ask."
He paused, quickly looked around, and lowered his volume again:
"I think Your Majesty has been moody lately, so I don't dare to ask."
"I also have this feeling."
Time is like a torrential river, flowing with no return. Thanks to the efforts of the craftsmen, all the replacement work of the magic circle has been completed.
Theo led the craftsmen to clean up the traces, and Moon ran over to report:
"Your Majesty, all the work is completed, please inspect it."
Osman took out a golden pocket watch from his pocket, opened the cover and took a look. It was just past nine o'clock.
"Well," he nodded, "lead the craftsmen to wait at the entrance of the sanctuary. If there is nothing wrong with my test, you can leave."
"As ordered," Munn ran towards Theo and everyone left.
Soon, the Pope was the only one left in the sanctuary.
After Osman heard the sound of the passage being closed, he came to the sanctuary room where the meeting was held.
Under his moon-white holy robe, it seemed as if air had been poured into it, and it began to expand. Then, a puddle of gray-purple mud fell from under the holy robe.
The ooze squirmed and reshaped into a humanoid creature with only a mouth and no other facial parts.
The Faceless Man humbly knelt at Osman's feet and kissed his toes.
The Pope stretched out his hand and stroked the faceless man's smooth head, with a different kind of tenderness in his eyes.
Then he turned and left, leaving only the faceless man inside, and the stone door of the room slowly closed.
"boom."
The stone doors are closed together and fit tightly.
After coming outside, Osman found the center of the magic circle and triggered the mechanism to activate the magic circle.
The strange red light dyed the passage scarlet, and the torches on the wall looked like red lotuses blooming in the sea of blood.
In the conference room, the faceless men began to rush against the wall, and auras of light like water rippled on the magic circle.
The wall did not move at all, but the faceless man was knocked away by the huge counterattack force.
"Roar," the faceless man roared in a low voice, and a buzz echoed in the room.
Its body split into several smaller faceless men, and then the whole bodies of these faceless men began to swell, and black ominous aura condensed on their bodies.
Then it hit the wall again at a faster speed, and was knocked away by the counter-shock force in the same posture.
Half an hour later, Osman opened the door to the room. He saw the faceless man slumped on the ground, while the surrounding walls were undamaged.
The Faceless Man turned back into a squirming puddle of ooze and became one with him.
Large chunks of flesh fell off the Pope's face, revealing bright red blood holes.
The flesh seemed to have vitality and returned to his body, and the bloody hole on his face slowly healed.
The sanctuary can isolate the inside and outside, and he used this method to feel everything the faceless man had done in the past half hour.
He estimated the strength of the faceless man's attack, touched the smooth wall again, and nodded with satisfaction.
The faceless man's attack reached the fifth level, but it was unable to damage the wall at all. His plan could be implemented.
The magic circle in the guest room was opened, and Crown was meditating on the golden light spell.
In this case, the vision during visualization will be blocked by the magic circle and will not leak out at all.
The isolation effect of this magic circle is average, otherwise he would cross-train the Breath of the Flame Dragon with the visualization method. This is the most efficient way to exercise, and the proficiency of the visualization method and the breathing method will be considerable.
A glass of water is placed on the table, sometimes projecting a touch of gentle silver on the wall, sometimes projecting a brilliant golden color.
He spent all his time during the day in meetings, so he could only practice a little more at night
Above the gray mist, the waning moon has fallen into the western mountains, and its originally bright silver color has become dim.
Crown stopped contemplating and took a deep breath.
He summoned a golden wall, and in the depths of his eyes, golden-purple light illuminated everything.
[Golden Light Spell: 156483/300000; Level 4]
There is only more than 40,000 proficiency points left before five people can obtain the Golden Light Tao Seed again.
Beside him, Flanders stood up and stretched greatly:
“It’s comfortable, and it only requires a short amount of sleep every day to ensure full energy throughout the day. Such an ability is unheard of.
I feel that the changes that visualization can bring to people are more powerful than the mystical methods of the same class in the church. "
Crown smiled noncommittally and said:
"Hurry up and catch up on your sleep. It's less than two hours until dawn."
"With you, I don't feel sleepy at all."
Crown waved his hand and cursed with a smile:
"I don't want you to stay here overnight at all, so go back quickly.
After another hour and a half of sleep, it will be five o'clock in the morning. The visualization effect at that time will be much stronger than now. "
At the meeting of cardinals, all the cardinal archbishops expressed their opinions, while Osman sat in the chair and watched coldly.
Their topic today is: ‘Whether to provide assistance to the Storm Lord Church. ’
Suddenly, the stone door of the room slowly opened, the heated debate stopped abruptly, and everyone's eyes moved to the door.
Meetings are not allowed to be interrupted unless there are major emergencies.
The silence in the room was terrifying. Theo felt the eyes of many silver-ranked powerful men as if they were real, and felt his legs trembling slightly.
He endured the invisible pressure, walked to the Pope, and whispered:
"Your Majesty, a group of mutated creatures suddenly appeared in the neighborhood near St. Peter's Basilica. They began to kill crazily. The Holy Flame Guards of the Holy See went to suppress them, but they were no match at all, resulting in heavy casualties.
Now, this group of mutated creatures is very close to the door of the church. "
Theo's voice was very low, but the people present were all Silver level experts, and everyone had sharp ears and eyes, so they heard his words clearly.
Crown's eyebrows immediately frowned. The members of the Holy Flame Guard of the Holy See are selected second-level elite priests and holy warriors. The backbone are third-level extraordinary beings. It is said that the current ratio of third-level extraordinary beings to second-level extraordinary beings Reach 1:5.
It can be said that the Holy Flame Guard is one of the core troops of the Holy See.
The riot that occurred near St. Peter's Basilica and the defeat of the Flame Guards, these two things put together contain a huge amount of information.
Osman stood up suddenly and shouted sharply:
"It must have been done by the followers of the evil god hiding in the dark. Everyone, I'll go out and I'll be back soon."
Archbishop Drago Mio, the Pope’s loyal supporter, hurriedly stood up and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, you don't need to personally take action in such a matter. I am willing to go out and quell the commotion to share your worries."
Others also echoed:
"Your Majesty, let us go."
If trivial matters require the help of church leaders, they will feel disgraced.
"Everyone is interested," Osman smiled slightly and raised his eyebrows:
"But let me come this time. The Holy Flame Guards are my direct unit, so they can be mobilized more easily.
These evil forces have actually infiltrated into the city of Bly and must be dealt with with the force of thunder. "
Drago immediately said: "Since it is going to be solved with the power of thunder, I suggest that Mr. Crown should accompany you."
He had never seen how the first fifth-level transcendent in the continent fought, and he also wanted to see what the difference was between fifth-level and fourth-level.
"No, letting Crown show up will make me feel very old.
Besides, it would be better for me to come forward in person to appease the frightened citizens. "
Seeing Drago, the Pope was about to open his mouth again, and stretched out his hand to press:
"Stop talking, I have my own considerations. You stay here to continue discussing the issue of reinforcing the Hinterlands.
I hope that before I come back, you will come up with a plan that everyone agrees with. "
Osman left in a hurry with Theo, and the door to the room was slowly closed.
