The Hero Who Troubles the Heroes

Vol 4 Chapter 1483: girl on the altar

The Old Continent is the name given to the hometown by people in the newly discovered lands, such as the Wandao Islands, in the age of great voyages.

As countless resources are continuously transported back from the newly opened land, it is already a bustling scene.

In the lively harbour, a cargo ship from the Black Earth Continent had just docked at the dock, and several carriages that had been waiting for a long time quickly pulled to the side and stopped.

The girls, who were tightly wrapped and veiled on their faces, carefully disembarked from the boat, and got into the carriage under the leadership of the mama who served them.

The bell on the carriage swayed with the footsteps of the pack horse, making a crisp sound, reminding pedestrians on the road to avoid it.

The girl in the carriage opened the corner of the thick curtain curiously, her green eyes widened, wanting to see what the Old World was like.

A handkerchief slapped the girl's hand fiercely, and the old lady sitting opposite her said with a little anger, "You want to become a saint who serves God, and you can't let the world defile your eyes!"

The girl had no choice but to let go.

It was just this glance that made her see something familiar, and the door of the roadside house also had the portraits of the two people posted on the door just like her hometown.

The carriage came out of the port, across the farmland, and on the forest road where the birds chirped.

The convoy went from noon to almost evening, and when the sunset appeared, it came to a castle on the top of the mountain.

The castle was very lively, and people all wore the same style of simple red robes.

These people have different temperaments, some look like pampered aristocrats, some look like poor academics, some look like businessmen in the city, and some look like farmers on the farm.

The new girls were led by the other maids to the bathroom.

God said: If you want to take a bath when you go far away, it is best to soak your feet in hot water.

So, the bathroom is essential in this place.

The girls took off their scented robes in the dressing room and went into the bathroom according to Mammy's instructions.

The bathroom is not small, surrounded by showers for showers. There is a hole on the wall next to the shower, with a bar of soap in it, and a warm water pool in the middle.

There were a lot of people in the bathroom at this time. About a dozen girls soaked their feet in a circle around the pool, and they could tell from their accents that they were from different places.

There was no way to take a bath on the boat, and the warm water droplets sprayed onto the body from the shower, and the new girls let out a comfortable moan.

Soap is no longer a rarity. After wetting their bodies and long hair, they picked up the soap and rubbed vigorously. By the time the foam appeared, a half of the soap had been consumed.

After washing their bodies up and down three times with soap, the new girls came to sit by the pool and joined in the chat.

Dinner started quickly, with girls in long yellow dresses dining in a separate restaurant.

The green-eyed girl thought she was dreaming when she saw dinner on the table.

In the middle of the long table were several roast geese with an enticing aroma, and the plates were surrounded by chunks of roasted potatoes soaked in grease.

There are slices of bread in the bamboo baskets on the table. This is the white bread that only gentlemen can afford, not the brown bread that he used to eat.

The girl couldn't help but think, next to the bread basket, was the jar filled with jam or honey?

As for fruit and vegetable soup, who cares if you have meat and white bread!

God said: Eat a balanced diet.

God said: Do not overeat.

Green eyes kept staring at the roast goose, the girl gave up the idea of eating only roast goose all you can eat, and used a knife and fork rigidly to finish tonight's dinner, but she wanted more roast goose meat than others. .

After the evening prayer after dinner, the girls went back to their rooms to rest.

In the green-eyed girl's room, there was already a red-haired girl who came here two days ago, and they had met in the bathroom just now.

The red-haired girl said to the green-eyed girl, "You eat too much at dinner. If you don't behave well, you will not be elected as a saint to serve the gods."

The green-eyed girl just replied perfunctorily, "I'll pay attention next time."

After that, she climbed into bed and went to bed, such a soft and comfortable bed and quilt had never been enjoyed before.

For the next few days, the green-eyed girl was the last to get up among all the girls, the only one who moved around during prayers, the one who ate the most, and swept her eyes to other believers from time to time.

A few days later, the moon in the sky became more and more round, and the red-haired girl in the bedroom said angrily to the green-eyed girl, "How can you do this? You make mistakes every day. Tomorrow night will be the ceremony. You can't be elected as a saint!"

The green-eyed girl lay on the comfortable bed and said indifferently, "If you can't choose, you can't choose. Anyway, I don't expect to be a saint."

"Ah?!" the red-haired girl exclaimed, "Then why did you come here?"

The green-eyed girl sat up and replied, "My family gave the bishop two cows and five sheep, and he added me to the recommended list."

Then she stood up, revealing the most proud mountain on her chest among all the girls, and said calmly, "I have already found a few big brothers who look rich and young, and they stare at me with all eyes. I saw it, and after I lost the election, I went to their parish to preach."

Although they have to wear veils when they have outsiders these days, the skirt definitely can't hide their figure, especially her figure is the most prominent.

The red-haired girl pointed her finger at her in disbelief, "You...you...you..." She was speechless for a long time.

The words have made it clear that this girl is not here to pursue the noble profession of serving God, but to find a rich man to enjoy life.

"Stop 'you'," said the green-eyed girl. "If I don't do it right, God will kill me with divine punishment."

The atmosphere in the bedroom suddenly became weird. God's punishment didn't come, because Charles didn't set it up, and didn't want to set it up.

Since God's punishment didn't come, let's go to sleep.

This day is the fullest time of the year for the moon.

In a meadow near the castle, a huge stone altar was erected at some point.

After nightfall, believers scattered all over the place, wearing red robes and holding torches in their hands, gathered around the altar from all directions.

Twenty-four girls, selected from dioceses around the world, had already put on golden dresses and garlands of flowers, and circled the altar.

In the center of the altar stood a white-haired old man in a golden robe. In terms of temperament, he was a person with a high position and a powerful hand.

In his hand, he held a magic wand made of gold with a crescent-like white blade at the top.

The scepter used by the envoy Charles of the Wandao Islands is double-edged, and the Pope's scepter is one level lower and single-edged.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the Pope raised his scepter.

The fire plate around the altar burned, and the smell of precious spices drifted around with the smoke, making it impossible to see the top of the altar.

The believers under the altar were silent first, and then sang hymns.

"We offer praise"

"Enter into the Temple of God"

"We are grateful"

"To thank you"

"We rejoice"

"Come to Praise"

…

During the singing, the girls knelt down and drank the wine handed by the archbishop.

After drinking, their bodies could not move, and only the saintess chosen by God could stand up.

Next, the Pope and several archbishops sang hymns in a low voice.

"bend your knees"

"Sacrifice a Maiden"

"May prayer keep rising like incense"

"Throw down the grace of God to give eternal life to the most faithful servant"

…

The believers under the altar sang so loudly that it drowned out the voice on the altar, and only those "candidate saints" could hear it.

The girls were stunned one by one, which was different from what was promised.

The green-eyed girl wanted to struggle to escape, but she couldn't move because of the glass of wine just now, and she could only see the blade of the scepter in "The Pope" getting closer and closer to her neck.

She expected people under the altar to find something wrong, but she was quickly disappointed, because of the distance, the angle and the smoke, no one could see what was going on here.

At this time, because of the time difference, Charles was fishing in the mountains far away from the manor.

There is a kind of piranha that is more than half a meter long, with sharp teeth, unusual ferocity, and delicious meat.

A wounded bison has been seen falling into a river and eaten by piranhas in less than an hour.

Since Scady suddenly stopped eating lamb two years ago, Charles has often made other meats for her to eat.

Early this morning, Charles led a sheep to the mountains to fish for piranhas.

But he didn't notice the surprised look of Skadi behind the curtain when he left, because he was holding a ram.

To catch piranhas is very simple, first kill the sheep and let the blood go into the river to attract the piranhas, then use the mutton or offal as bait, and take the rest back to the farmers to share.

This was no trouble for Charles, and he was very familiar with it.

The silver-white blade was reflected in the green pupil, the girl had given up, and her bitter face was full of despair.

Suddenly, the sky lit up like the sun.

Then, a burst of music drifted between the heavens and the earth.

"Goddess of joy, holy and beautiful, planing potatoes with a shovel!"

…

Lyrics sung in languages they had never heard before, accompanied by solemn and majestic music, shook the spirits of the believers.

More than a hundred majestic and beautiful birds composed of various elements flew out of the light and hovered over the altar and the believers.

Immediately afterwards, a slime exuding colorful rays of light descended from the sky and landed on the altar with the coercion that this world had never had before.

He has no divine power himself, and can only pretend that he is a **** by using the coercion of his own magic power.

Charles was bleeding the sheep just now, and a bug alert popped up in the prayer system.

"What the **** is immortality?!"

Charles, who had experience as a sacrifice, knew right away that something wasn't right.

Fortunately, the system has a positioning function, and he can use teleportation.

Slaine caught up, and when the goddess of joy was digging potatoes, the "Pope"'s hand loosened, and the scepter that had been stuck to the girl's throat fell to the ground.

After the ten-meter-diameter Shi Lai fell to the ground, the "Pope" and "Archbishop" on the altar felt that they were trapped by something and could not move.

Slay slapped them to death with a tentacle.

But the next thing is the hardest.

The elemental phoenixes in the sky shouted at the same time:

"No Pope!"

"No bishop!"

"No priest!"

"No sacrifices!"

"Everyone is equal!"

"Everyone can talk to me!"

"Rite, UU reading www.uukanshu.com comes from the heart, not the form!"

"You don't need to call me to show up, I'll be with you!"

"Remember"
