Chapter 4051: Crown
"The Crown of Emmanuel..."
On a small boat in a river somewhere in Adria, Dorothy couldn't help but murmur after listening to the boatman's words, his eyes fixed on the dazzling reflection on the top of the magnificent church in the distance.
Dorothy had heard of the name Emanuel. When she was "studying" at Holy Crown University, Dorothy spent most of her time in the library reading books. The extremely rich collection of secular books at Holy Crown University greatly expanded Dorothy's understanding of the world. Dorothy read Ivig's Secular History in the library at night.
Emmanuel, an ancient king of Igwe and founder of the Bipo dynasty that now rules Igwe, is known as Emmanuel the “King of Inheritance”.
In secular history, several decades ago, the last king of the Ivig Vortex Dynasty, the "Arrogant King" Ao, openly invaded the northern Christian countries, triggering the Turbid Flow War. In the end, the coalition forces of the Christian countries turned around and attacked the country, and the Arrogant King was defeated and killed.
And this Emmanuel was originally a distant relative of the royal family of the Vortex Dynasty. During the Turbid Flow War, Emmanuel, who was then the Grand Duke of Adelia, once rebelled against the rule of the Arrogant King and overthrew the rule of the Arrogant King together with the Allied Forces of the Guardians of the Church. Due to his performance in the war, Emmanuel finally inherited the Ivig crown after the war under the will of the Holy See of Mount Saint-Immort and founded the Bibo Dynasty which lasted to 㫇. The title of Emmanuel as the King of Light actually means "Thanked by the glory of the king".
Of course, Dorothy, who had read the secret biography, knew clearly the secrets hidden under this mundane history. The Vortex Dynasty of the Arrogant King was actually highly corrupted by the Abyss Religion at that time. At that time, the power of the Abyss Religion in Ivig was expanding rapidly, and even the people openly believed in the Abyss Serpent. This war was a holy war led by the church. The church itself took the holy war army of the religious countries to travel all over Ivig and wiped out the pagans here.
"It turns out to be King Emmanuel's stuff. I almost forgot that this is Adelaia, which was once the territory of King Emmanuel." Dorothy thought to herself after quickly going through the information about Emmanuel and Ivig. Then she controlled the parent doll beside her and said to the boatman. When the boatman saw that the passenger understood a little, he started talking incessantly.
"Oh, the guests also know that this place was once the territory of King Emanuel. Not many people know a little bit of history these days... Although our royal family now lives in Pez, they all came here. The crown on the top of the church is the best proof."
While rowing the boat, the boatman pointed his hand into the distance, pointing to the reflected light on the top of the church, and then continued speaking.
“The Crown of Inherited Light… This was the certificate sent by Saint Mount to King Emmanuel when he officially declared his rebellion against the Arrogant King in Ade-Aya, acknowledging that he was the true hero of Ivig. After King Emmanuel completely defeated the Arrogant King, Emmanuel needed to formally go to Pezi to wear the Crown of Ivig.
"Before his death, the people of Adeluya were reluctant to see their wise leader leave, so Emmanuel left the Crown of Inheritance here to commemorate his past as the leader. Since then, the crown has been kept in the Pure Flow Church until today. This crown is also a treasure of the entire Adeluya."
With a hint of pride in his tone, the boatman explained to the corpse doll. After listening to the boatman's words, Dorothy nodded, and she roughly knew in her heart why the crown emitted the light of "lamp".
…
Afterwards, Dorothy and the head corpse continued to sail along the waterway in the boat. After a while, they arrived at a waterway beside the wide square in front of the Pure Flow Church. Dorothy asked the head corpse to pay the boatman and then got off the boat.
Then Dorothy did not go to visit the Jingliu Church immediately. Instead, she took her father's corpse doll to a nearby hotel. After checking in, Dorothy went to the room. In the room, she put her father away and put away the father's corpse doll. Then she went downstairs and walked out of the hotel alone.
With light steps, Dorothy walked quickly along the embankment beside the waterway. After crossing an arch bridge, she left the residential area with dense buildings and waterways and came to a wide square.
The entire square is paved with clean boulders. In the center of the square is a towering obelisk. Not far behind the obelisk is the tall Jingliu Church. On the square are countless ordinary citizens strolling and tourists sightseeing. In the distance, the gate of the Jingliu Church is open, and people can be seen constantly entering and exiting it.
After taking a few glances at the edge of the square, Dorothy continued to walk into the square. During this process, she opened her spiritual vision and continued to pay attention to the consumption of the "Shadow" spirituality in the Ring of Concealment.
As they got closer to the Church of Pure Flow, Dorothy discovered that the light of the "lamp" on the Crown of Emmanuel on the top of the church was becoming more and more obvious and dazzling, and the spiritual consumption of the Ring of Concealment in her hand also began to slowly increase without being noticeable. After getting close to the Church of Pure Flow for a long distance, Dorothy roughly estimated the reconnaissance effectiveness of the Crown of Emmanuel based on the rate of increase in the spiritual consumption of the "Shadow" in the Ring of Concealment.
In general, as a seeing lamp, the reconnaissance efficiency of the Crown of Emmanuel is very high. Dorothy estimates that as long as it reaches the outer twenty meters of the Pure Flow Church, the reconnaissance efficiency of the Crown of Emmanuel will be equivalent to that of an ordinary seeing lamp. If it continues to go deeper, the reconnaissance efficiency will continue to increase, and eventually it should be able to reach three or four times that of an ordinary seeing lamp.
'The extraordinary detection efficiency of this Crown of Emmanuel is a bit scary. How many 'lamps' are needed to maintain such a high detection efficiency around the clock? Or is the Crown of Emmanuel more efficient in utilizing the spiritual power of the 'lamps'?'
Looking at the reflection on the top of the church in the distance flickering in the sunlight, Dorothy thought to herself that with such a powerful detection efficiency, the Crown of Emmanuel could not only detect extraordinary traces, but when getting too close to it, it could probably directly detect the restrained spirituality in the body of an extraordinary person. Even if the extraordinary person himself did not use any abilities to reveal any extraordinary traces, it could still be detected.
After calculating the approximate detection efficiency of the Crown of Emmanuel, Dorothy continued to walk towards the Quiet Flow Church. She chose the most suitable angle to continue moving forward. At this angle, Emmanuel's light could be blocked by a church spire, allowing her to save some spiritual energy when approaching.
After a while, Dorothy came to the edge of Jingliu Church. The detection of the Crown of Emmanuel on the roof could not reach her because of the blind spot, so Dorothy could only leave a little "shadow". Then she came to the door of the church, where she entered the church like other tourists.
When Dorothy entered the Jingliu Church, she did not see a large chapel like other churches, but a large counter. She had to buy a ticket from the ticket seller before she could continue to visit.
That's right, the Pure Flow Church no longer functions as a church, but was converted into a museum several years ago. Dorothy was a little surprised when she heard Beverly talk about the Pure Flow Church Museum. Why is this place both a church and a museum? It was not until Dorothy talked to the boatman and tour guide for a while that she got the answer.
The original Jingliu Church was a cathedral for the people of Ademiya to worship, and since Emmanuel left his crown here in order to appease the people of Ademiya's feelings, it has been stored in the Jingliu Church.
Over the next long period of time, more and more people came to the Purification Church to visit the crown, which gradually affected the religious activities of the church itself. As a result, the Adelia City Government and the church decided to build a new church in other places to accommodate the normal religious activities of the citizens of Adelia, while the Purification Church was specifically used as a place to store the Crown of Emmanuel for citizens to visit. Finally, as time passed, more and more collectors of all kinds donated their collections to the Purification Church in order to have their collections exhibited together with the Crown of Emmanuel. As a result, the collection of the Purification Church increased, and it was finally turned into a special museum. It is one of the most famous tourist attractions in Adelia.
