No one dared to resist the huge pressure of faith from the Glowing Church. As a young priestess, although Darlene was not angry about the blasphemy of her faith, she did not dare to resist. So she secretly took the most precious treasure in the temple, the secret book of the faith in the Goddess of Fertility passed down from generation to generation, and escaped.
After escaping from the village, Darlene finally saw the outside world, the outside religions, the secret world and the mysticism. Born into a priest family, after her life stabilized, she naturally immersed herself in the study of secrets and the Book of Fertility. These notes of Darlene are mainly research notes on that secret book.
This note was written by Darlene after she came into contact with a lot of occult knowledge from the outside world and entered the secret world for many years. Therefore, she has her own opinion about the Goddess of Plenty, which is not entirely a priest's mentality. In her opinion, the Goddess of Plenty is most likely a goddess of the ancient "Cup" field who was active around the Dawn War and the Imperial Period. It is very likely that she has fallen now, and the belief she believes in is very likely one of the remnants of Her former beliefs.
This was because after a long period of anti-drug research on the secret code, she found that it actually recorded that the church of the fertility goddess was quite large, so large that it could even be divided into two large tribes. The priests of each tribe mastered an extraordinary way to get closer to the goddess through continuous advancement. Her family belonged to the dancer tribe, which mastered the extraordinary way to manipulate desires.
After confirming this, Darlene was extremely excited. She began to travel according to the clues provided in the secret book, looking for a way to allow her family to continue to rise on the path of advancement. The clues given in the secret book were that she needed to find several designated strongholds of the Star Number Book Repair Society to cooperate with them, and from them she could obtain methods to accumulate and "inspire" spirituality.
However, this secret book did not indicate the location of the Star Book Repair Society's ruins, which made Darlene complain in her notes, but she also made up her mind to find those ruins by herself.
"Huh... we still don't know where the ruins are..."
Sitting on the chair in the study, after finishing organizing Darlene's early notes, Dorothy let out a long sigh. Although there were some clues about the Astrological Book Society in these notes, there were not many. The most crucial thing was that she could not know the specific location of the Astrological Book Society's ruins.
"It seems that we can only have clues after Adele finds the remaining information. This note is Darlene's handwriting when she was studying her own secret book. It was written when she was just beginning to become extraordinary. The other information she left behind during other periods should contain information about the remains of the Star Numbers Book Society."
Dorothy thought so, and with regret, she glanced at the notes in front of her. Although she only got a little information about the Star Number Book Society, she got a lot of information about the "Cup" field, especially the so-called Church of the Goddess of Plenty.
'During the War of Dawn and the Empire period, this so-called Church of the Goddess of Plenty seemed very powerful, holding three branches. The church was divided into two factions, and it controlled all the branches in the "Cup" field, including pure "Cup" and auxiliary "Initiation". It was stronger than the current Radiant Church. The Radiant Church only controlled three branches in the "Lamp" field. This Church of Plenty directly unified the "Cup" at the beginning, which was...
'Another thing worth noting is that Darlene said that according to the records in the secret book she was holding, if there were extraordinary people in the church who wanted to embark on the path of lust and evil, they had to go to several specific bases to find the Star Number Repair Society to learn the accumulation of "activation" methods. In other words, at least for a considerable period of time, the Star Number Repair Society and the Church of Abundance coexisted, and there was even cooperation between the two.'
Dorothy thought that there were many points in the notebook that interested her, so she flipped through Darlene's notebook again and turned to a page with an inverted pattern drawn on it.
The main body of this pattern is an inverted triangle with a circle inscribed inside it. Outside the inverted triangle, there is a circle of wheat ears drawn around it, and there are tree branches, flowers and birds below, forming a badge icon as a whole. According to Darlene's annotation below, this icon is the logo of the Church of the Goddess of Plenty. According to this standard, it is also the logo of the Goddess of Plenty herself. According to this standard, Dorothy has seen similar ones before.
That is the symbol of the Wolf Blood Society of the Afterbirth Cult. The symbol of the Wolf Blood Society is an inverted triangle, but inside it is not an ordinary circle, but a wolf's head. Dorothy, who has read many secret stories about the Afterbirth Cult, knows the symbolism of these symbols. The inverted triangle represents not only the spiritual symbol of "cup", but also the womb of the Mother of Cups. The wolf head in the inverted triangle means that the gluttonous wolf is the blood heir of the Mother of Cups.
Seeing the standard of the Wolfblood Order, Dorothy also knew very well what the symbols of the other two Afterbirth Order branches were. It must be that the wolf inside the inverted triangle was replaced with a snake or a vulture.
In ancient times, the emblem of the Church of the Goddess of Plenty was similar to the emblems of the three families of the Afterbirth Cult today. Is this a coincidence? Or is it a must in the "Cup" series of churches... As powerful goddesses in the "Cup" field, is there any connection between the former Goddess of Plenty and the current Mother of Cups? ... However, according to the content of Darlene's research on the secret book, the Church of the Goddess of Plenty is not a cult at all, but more like a universal church like the current Radiant Cult.
"Hiss... I feel like the history of this world is a bit of a mess..."
Thinking about all these possibilities, Dorothy couldn't help scratching her head and muttering that because of the drug identification, too much of this world's past history was covered up, and the information Dorothy obtained was very fragmented. Thinking about these historical issues, it made her feel a little overwhelmed for a while.
"No matter what, after seeing so much, I'd better extract the spirituality first."
Dorothy didn't think about other things for a moment, and decided to get her spirituality out first. After her extraction, a total of 4 "Cups" and 3 "Enlightenment" were extracted from Darlene's notes. Adding up all Dorothy's previous spiritual state, Dorothy's current spiritual state is.
9 cups, 11 stones, 6 shadows, 1 lamp, 11 silence, 18 enlightenment.
'Hmm... Last time I invested 7 points, and now I have 4 points back. There will be other information later. In short, I didn't lose anything spiritually in the end.
'But I still hope Adele can find the information faster. I have to raise the spiritual power of the 'Cup' as soon as possible to recharge the Heart-Eating Cane Sword. This kind of life-saving equipment is too important.
'And now I have 18 points in 'Enlightenment', which is more than half of the 30 points required for the Chalk. Considering that after finding the Chalk advancement ritual, I can extract a lot of spirituality at one time, it is not far from the Chalk spirituality requirement. The key is to find the advancement ritual.'
Dorothy thought to herself as she checked the state of her spiritual accumulation. Then, she stretched herself lazily, put away her notes, and prepared to enjoy her free afternoon time.
…
At the same time, on the other side of the distant Prit Island, in the train station of Igwent, a town southwest of Prit, a young man wearing a windbreaker and a hat was buying a ticket from the ticket office at the train station.
Looking at the words "Egwent Station - Tivian West Station" on the ticket, Gregor smiled.
