The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse
Chapter 17 Believers and Divination
The stage has obviously been set up, and the actors from all parties are already in place, and the curtain is about to begin for the performance.
At this time, Chen Mo, who was the only audience member and the final character in this drama, was meeting a group of special guests.
"Salute to you, respected saint, may the glory of the gods bless you forever." A religious man in white robes was respectfully saluting Chen Mo, with a very pious attitude, as if Chen Mo was what he believed in Like gods.
In a sense, this religious man’s attitude is not surprising. After he came to this world, he took his little niece to experience the most authentic archaeological adventure and dug out the Dead Sea Scrolls. , Chen Mo has an additional title of saint recognized by the Holy See.
The title of saint...how do you say it? You say it’s awesome, but it is indeed awesome. In the entire history of Christian sects, there are very few people who can be posthumously canonized as saints. Although there are still quite a few accumulated over two thousand years of history, the vast majority Some of them were only possible if they had devout beliefs and sufficient influence during their lifetime.
And usually, not all saints are universally recognized by the Church of Kido. Only a very small number of people whose names are recorded in the Bible, such as Jesus and his disciples, can be called saints and enjoy to the worship of Christians around the world.
As for other saints, they will receive different treatment according to the different doctrines and regulations of different sects or religious orders.
For example, some saints are only recognized by a certain small sect and will not be recognized by Christians around the world. Different sects also have different attitudes towards saints. Some sects will worship saints devoutly, but some will worship saints devoutly. The sect only respects and pays homage to the saints.
For example, the Orthodox Church once canonized Comrade Steel as a living saint, but it only treated him with courtesy.
In short, you can think of the title of saint as a very noble status, and if it is a saint recognized by a major sect, such as Christianity, the Orthodox Church, and the Anglican Church, it will be recognized by Christians on many occasions. our respect.
Previously, Chen Mo dug up the Dead Sea Scrolls, which can almost be regarded as the original Bible, and donated it to the Holy See. Such an act is recognized and recognized as a saint canonized by the pious Sunnah. .
Especially after the authenticity and content of the Dead Sea Scrolls were recognized by other sects such as the Orthodox Church, the title of Saint Chen Mo is almost equivalent to being recognized by all sects.
After all, that is a manuscript of the Old Testament dating back two thousand years. It is four hundred years older than the Sinaiticus manuscript, the oldest recognized Bible. It directly establishes the authenticity of the biblical content and the historical authority of religious interpretation from the historical source. sex.
Not to mention that Chen Mo mixed some private goods into the Dead Sea Scrolls, hid his worship in the Dead Sea Scrolls, and transformed religious figures from the Holy See into his own priests.
In fact, when Xiao Yixi explained the role of divine light to Newt and others, she missed one of the most important pieces of information, that is, divine light can refine believers.
As long as a person who is bathed in the divine light has even a little faith in his heart, this faith will evolve into fanatical worship under the influence of the divine light, and he will be refined from a general believer to a devout believer. As for the devout believers who already have devout faith It is not impossible to even be refined into the god's favorite fanatical believer and to be promoted to several saints.
The content that Chen Mo mixed in the Dead Sea Scrolls was to plant a seed of faith in him among Christians, and then use this little bit of faith to refine the entire Holy See, and also gave them magical powers. Let them spread their faith more.
Therefore, when Chen Mo planned to direct a big play in New York and planned to end it himself because of Xiao Yixi, these priests who believed in him were naturally summoned and became a third party force on the stage. .
These priests are all religious people who were originally devout believers. After being refined by Chen Mo's divine light, they have basically reached the level of devout believers, and some are even close to the level of fanatic believers. In addition to being able to steadily provide the power of faith, , also obtained a lot of magical skills, and has good combat effectiveness.
In addition to themselves, they also brought with them a group of knights from the Knights Hospitaller.
Originally, the Knights Hospitallers had lost their armed forces and were basically reduced to the same level as the Swiss mercenaries of the Holy See. However, they still retained their relatively pious beliefs, as well as a certain organizational structure and personnel.
So after the Holy See obtained divine magic, these original knights were quickly reorganized, and they also gained extraordinary power. As long as their faith is firm, they can exert powerful combat effectiveness.
The group of priests and knights who came to New York this time can almost be said to be the elite of the Holy See.
The excuse for them to come to New York is also easy to find, that is, the miracle that Chen Mo performed before.
A miracle happened in New York. Isn't it natural for the Holy See to send a delegation to investigate? As for why they came so quickly, it was naturally because the gods notified the devout believers after they appeared!
Therefore, in addition to Muggles and wizards, New York now also has people from the Holy See.
As Grindelwald unfolds his plan, these three forces will stage a wonderful drama in New York.
——————————————
"Now we must find a way to find the Obscurial One who caused the attack in New York City. If this continues, I'm worried that things will turn into the worst situation." In the luxury hotel room, Newt sat on the sofa, with a look on his face. His expression was very tense.
As the person who knows the Obscurus best among the people, he knows very well that once the transformation of the Obscurus begins, the parasitized little wizard will soon degenerate and die.
If I couldn't save him in time, there would be another innocent child in the world who died in vain.
This is undoubtedly what Newt doesn't want to see.
But if you want to go out and find someone, how easy is it?
"It's impossible. The streets of New York City are now full of wizards who are searching for us. If we go out rashly, I'm afraid we will be arrested by those Aurors before we can find the Obscurial. I don't want to escape from prison again." Na said this, but the expression on her face also showed concern.
As a former Auror, the sense of justice and responsibility has always filled her heart, and she clearly understands the terrible consequences that an Obscurial will have if it breaks out in New York.
But she also clearly understood that if they went out to look for the Obscurials, they would immediately attract the Aurors who were chasing them, and this would only make things worse.
"Don't worry too much. I have asked the Emperor's Children to collect information. With their ability, they should have news soon." Xiao Yixi was not too nervous about this. Although she didn't know much about the Emperor's Children. Strength and ability, but she had full confidence in them.
Newt and Tina heard what Xiao Yixi said and looked at each other. Although they felt that such passive waiting was really stupid, they could only suppress their anxious hearts and wait in silence.
Queenie looked at them from the side, frowning slightly, then stood up, took out her wand and pointed at the teapot on the table: "Come and drink some tea, just sitting here won't solve the problem."
As she spoke, Queenie waved her wand, causing the teapot to jump up and pour everyone a cup of tea.
Seeing this, Newt and Tina could only pick up their teacups and drink tea that had no taste at all.
Fortunately, at this moment, the palace swordsman who had been standing behind Xiao Yixi suddenly lowered his head and said to her: "Your Royal Highness, there is news that there is another attack in New York City. The place where the attack occurred is a building. The orphanage is controlled by a group called Second Salem.
But they arrived too late. After the attack, all the main members of Second Salem died, and the rest were children who couldn't ask anything.
However, they said that two of the children were missing, one of whom was a boy who was almost an adult, and the other was an eight-year-old girl. It was said that the children in the orphanage had been abused. "
"Eight-year-old girl? Abused?" When Newt heard these words, a painful expression suddenly appeared on his face: "Oh! Damn it, that girl must be a little wizard. She was abused by the people in Second Salem. , so she suppressed her ability to cast spells, and the pain caused by the abuse also turned her into an Obscurial."
"That boy must be Credence. I know him. Do you know where they went?" Tina remembered the boy she had been in contact with and asked with concern.
Xiao Yixi looked up at the palace swordsman who had taken off his helmet, but the other party shook his head: "They arrived late and did not find these two children. Moreover, it is said that they disappeared after the attack and were not there on the third day. The orphanage where Two Salem is located, and others are currently looking for them.”
"It seems that the situation is a bit bad, but it is not the worst yet." After listening to this, Xiao Yixi felt that things were indeed very bad, but she did not lose her optimistic attitude and took out a pair of gold coins from her pocket. The finished tarot cards were placed on the coffee table in front of him: "At this time, we may be able to seek help from fate."
Tina and Newt noticed Xiao Yixi's movements and both showed surprised expressions.
They were not surprised why Xiao Yixi took out a deck of tarot cards. After all, there is a divination course in the magic school, and prophets also exist in the magic world, so they can't make up their minds about anything. Divination is not a strange thing.
In fact, when they were still students, Tina and Queenie were very addicted to this stuff for a while, but they had no talent in this area, so they were basically no different from ordinary Muggle girls who were obsessed with mysticism.
But obviously, Xiao Yixi, who has a pair of divine parents, can never be the kind of Muggle girl obsessed with mysticism, and the powerful power lingering in her deck of tarot cards can be clearly felt by Newt and the other three. To be able to fully realize the extraordinary nature of this deck of tarot cards.
What surprised them was that Xiao Yixi actually planned to use this method to find the whereabouts of the two children. After all, divination is not a bad skill. Real diviners and prophets are very rare. .
"This is a gift given to me by Uncle Skeleton and Sister Saint. It is a pair of tarot cards that can be used for divination. It can predict three things every day and get the answers. It is a very useful and interesting thing." Xiao Yixi told The three people in front of them introduced the deck of tarot cards, and then began to shuffle the cards.
Seeing Xiao Yixi's skillful and focused movements, Tina and the others had a little more confidence in her, but Queenie couldn't help but asked curiously: "Uncle Skeleton and Sister Saint? Their names are so weird." , are they your friends?"
"Yeah, he's a friend who lives in Cat Village! Uncle Skeleton is a lich, but he's very nice and good at alchemy. He often makes me all kinds of fun toys. I loved hanging out with him when I was a kid. Let’s play.” Although divination requires concentration, Xiao Yixi was still able to answer Queenie’s question: “As for Sister Saint, you must know her name, her name is Joan of Arc.”
"Joan of Arc? That French Saint?!" Although the three wizards here do not understand the knowledge and history of the Muggle world, they still know the name of Joan of Arc. After all, Marshal Gilles Dray is that A very famous wizard in his time.
"Hmm, dad and mom met Uncle Gil, Sister Saint's follower, when he and Mom were traveling in Europe, so Dad agreed to Uncle Gil and helped him resurrect Sister Joan of Arc." Xiao Yixi didn't know what she was saying. How amazing it was, but the three people listening were shocked and speechless.
Whether it is Joan of Arc or Gilles Dray, these are all figures in history. However, the girl in front of them now tells them that the figures in history are still alive or have been resurrected from the dead. How can this not surprise people?
But before they could ask any more questions, the tarot cards on the table had already revealed something.
"Uh..." Xiao Yixi looked at the tarot cards that had shown the results, but suddenly stopped strangely, frowned and looked at the three people in front of her, and then asked amidst their strange eyes. : "Are any of you three good at interpreting tarot cards? I don't know how to interpret them. This is also the first time I use this deck of tarot cards to divine the answer to a certain question..."
This answer made Newt and the other three dumbfounded, but they could only express that they did not understand.
After all, although the three of them had learned divination in magic school, they couldn't use tarot cards.
Tarot cards are a divination tool that originated from the Gypsies, and British wizards like Newt, as well as American wizards who split from the British wizarding school, are better at astrology and interpreting omens rather than turning over Tarot cards. .
"Ah? What should we do now? We don't know how to interpret tarot cards. Wouldn't it be useless if the divination results come out?" Xiao Yixi suddenly showed a distressed expression.
