John said this to Priest Miller, and at the same time he took out another 300 pounds in cash and stuffed it into the donation box. After Priest Miller looked at the large bills being put into the donation box with a squinting look, he took out a holy emblem from his body.
"Ah... a 14-year-old child in the New World may indeed encounter some unknown dangers, but I think as long as you have this holy emblem, the protection of the Holy Son will always be with you. Under the protection of the Holy Son, you will definitely achieve great things in the future after growing up in the New World."
Having said this, Priest Miller handed the Holy Emblem of the Son of God in his hand to John, who gladly accepted it and said with emotion.
"Thank you very much for your gift, priest. With the blessing of the Holy Emblem of the Three Saints, our family will surely be able to live a peaceful life in the New World."
"Haha, that's nothing. The holy emblem is prepared for the most loyal and devout believers. Mr. Isaiah, the devout faith you just showed is enough for you and your family to receive the protection of the holy emblem. It is a blessing for us to have a devout believer like you."
Pastor Miller responded, and when John was about to say something, he saw the three Trinity altars under the stained glass in the hall in the distance, and a smaller and farther altar belonging to the Glorious Savior above the Trinity altar. After a slight pause, he suddenly seemed to remember something and said.
"By the way, respected Pastor Miller, since I have obtained the holy emblems of the Three Saints, I can set up a small complete holy place of glory in my home in the New World in the future. I heard from others that these three holy emblems can be used as a small altar of the Three Saints. Now I just need to get another holy emblem of the Savior, then I can meet the requirements for setting up a holy place and it will be complete."
John said this, and from his tone, it seemed that he had no intention of asking for the holy emblem of the Glorious Savior, but since he already had three holy emblems of the Three Saints, he might as well put together a whole.
After hearing what John said, Pastor Miller nodded and responded.
"Hmm... you have a point. Since you have already obtained the holy emblems of the Three Saints, if you also obtain the holy emblem of the Savior, you can imitate the church and hold a holy ceremony at home... Isaiah, please wait for a moment, I will be here soon."
Priest Miller said this, then he turned and left the scene, and came back soon after, this time with a new holy emblem in his hand.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting. This is the holy emblem of the Savior. It has not been sent to you for a long time. It took me a while to find it."
As he spoke, Miller handed the holy emblem in his hand to John. The emblem was a simple, abstract sun without anything inside. Miller handed it directly to John without waiting for him to put more money into the donation box, as if he was giving the Savior's holy emblem to someone else.
"Thank you so much, Pastor Miller. On behalf of me and my family, I would like to thank you." After receiving the badge, John expressed his gratitude to Miller, and Pastor Miller responded with a smile.
"It's nothing. For the faithful believers of the Lord, these are what you deserve from Mr. Islam. I wish you and your family all the best in the new world."
Pastor Miller said this for the last time, and then he exchanged a few words with John. John said goodbye to him and left the church. He went down the long stairs to the square and then left the church area.
At the gate of the church area, John waited for a while, stopped a carriage and got on it. After turning left and right in the northern city area, he finally stopped at a bridge. After getting off the car, he looked around, and when he saw a young man, he got on the car and gave him all the holy emblems on his body.
After that, the young man walked alone on the street for a while, and finally stopped beside a carriage on the side of the road. After the window of the carriage was opened, he reached his hand into the window, then retracted his hand and left quickly.
Dorothy, who was wearing a women's suit, sat inside the carriage. She looked at the four holy emblems in her hand, and after examining them one by one with her spiritual vision, she frowned and murmured.
"Damn... the spiritual power in these four holy emblems is not even a little bit, and they can sell them for 300 pounds each. These charlatans are really a rip-off. With this little money, I can buy one or two storage items from the profiteers."
Dorothy complained while checking the spirituality inside the holy emblem. She knew that there was spirituality in the holy emblem but she didn't expect there would be so little. She had been planning to use the extra holy emblems she bought as storage items, but now it seems that her plan has gone down the drain, as the "lamps" of these four things don't seem to be as many as one storage item.
"It seems that for the Glorious Church, the holy emblem that ordinary people can get is just a high-level placebo, a money-sucking thing... I spent 900 pounds on such a small thing... Hmm..."
As she spoke, Dorothy puffed up her lips in anger, but she finally spoke with relief.
"Huh... Never mind... Although I spent a lot of money, I still achieved my main goal... I got my first holy emblem..."
Muttering, Dorothy took the one belonging to the Glowing Savior among the four holy emblems and examined it carefully. Although its spirituality was slight, it was still made by the church itself and was the genuine holy emblem of the Glowing Savior. It was one of the must-haves for Dorothy's promotion ceremony.
Dorothy was still very proud of getting this holy emblem. The holy emblem of the Church of Light was not out of reach for ordinary people. As long as one made contributions to the church, one could obtain the holy emblem. This was the rule of the church. The holy emblem of the Church of Light was equivalent to a symbol, amulet, and a high-level symbol of faith for ordinary people.
For ordinary people, the most common way to contribute is naturally to raise funds. As the saying goes, "When the donation box jingles, the soul ascends to heaven." In terms of using faith to make money from the public, the Radiant Church has a long history, and in many cases it is even more ruthless than the profiteers and capitalists of the White Masons.
Because Vanya had just gone through the Smith incident and was under the attention of both the Security Bureau and the Church, for her safety, Dorothy did not ask Vanya for help in getting the holy emblem of the Glowing Savior. Instead, she used the method of controlling the corpse doll as a donor and forced money to donate the holy emblem.
Dorothy had done some research before and found that if she wanted to obtain the holy emblem through donations, she could probably get it with one or two hundred pounds, but the most stable amount was three hundred pounds. To ensure stability, Dorothy donated that much in one go, and she donated three times.
The reason why Dorothy did not accept the holy emblem of the Glorious Savior from the beginning was that the belief in the Savior was an absolute minority in the Glorious Church, and almost no one in the general public would bypass the Three Saints to accept the belief in the Savior. If Dorothy let the corpse John accept the holy emblem of the Savior, it would arouse suspicion.
This may involve the heresy of the Radiant Light Church, "The Savior's Advent Sect", which is a heresy that preaches the hypocrisy of the Three Saints and only believes in the Savior.
So after careful consideration, Dorothy asked John to take a big detour when donating the holy emblem, starting with the Holy Blood, and then asking for the Mother and Child, and finally, on the grounds that there was a shortage of four, the priest gave her the holy emblem of the Radiant Savior without any doubt. After all, she was one step away from completing the collection of the Radiant Savior series holy emblems, and could get the achievement, so it made sense to help.
If she continues to ask for the Savior's holy symbol, she will most likely be regarded as being influenced by heresy, and at that time she will probably be subject to a special inspection, and then Dorothy's corpse will be exposed.
Even at the entrance of the Hymn Church, which is a public open area, the church has arranged powerful illumination lamps to operate. In order to let John pass the illumination lamps, Dorothy consumed a total of 4 points of "Shadow" this time, which was more than the previous security game.
This was a public open area in the church area. If it was other confidential places in the church area, who knows how strong the detection ability would be. Therefore, Dorothy's corpse puppet would be exposed once it was checked. The 10 or so "shadows" on Dorothy's body were just a drop in the bucket when facing the church. It was impossible for her to resist. So when asking for the holy emblem, Dorothy must not let John be suspected. In the end, she did it, but the price was 900 pounds.
