Chapter 402 Returning in vain
Crown nodded slightly. Hamers City has its own commander, and it has the best combat power in the entire continent.
At the same time, this area also has Eliza, Fanny, Nick, and Audrey from the McLean family, a total of four fourth-level extraordinary people. The configuration of mid-level combat personnel is comparable to that of the top-level diocese.
He didn't know the situation of other churches. Take the Church of the Lord of Fire as an example. The small town of Hamers was the most powerful city besides the Vatican's city of Bray.
As the number of Moon Soul Spirit Light Arrays increases, the defensive shortcomings of this area will be made up for, and at the same time, it will provide a better environment for local residents and solve the problem of infiltration of evil gods' pollution laws.
He stared into Tony's eyes and said, "What will the Vatican think if you go to Hamers City?"
The other party is a pastor of the church, of medium rank, and his transfer must be approved by the church.
The fat man took out a handkerchief to wipe the grease off his face and said:
“The spiritual concentration in the world is constantly increasing, which is a good thing, but it has also caused a sharp increase in the number of low-level and slightly higher-level extraordinary people.
Your Excellency should know that four or five years ago, or even earlier, a third-level transcendent could be qualified for the position of archbishop, or at least a bishop.
Now? A Level 3 Transcendent can only serve as a patrol captain.
If one does not have the talent to advance to silver level, becoming a level three transcendent is the end point for most ordinary people.
The number of third-level extraordinary people in the church will increase. If I apply for transfer from my current position, I can find a successor the next day.
There are many people like me in the church who are not outstanding. "
Tony showed a bitter smile on his face. After the last bloody night in the city of Bly, a large number of indigenous people died. Arthur took over as Pope and transferred a large number of elite troops to the Vatican.
The city, which was originally in a state of disrepair, quickly prospered thanks to the rapid growth of the world's spiritual concentration.
The current city of Bray is many times more powerful than when Osman was Pope.
"If you can go to Hamers City through normal procedures, they will be happy to accept you."
Crown smiled and said that due to inherent limitations, the population base of Hamers City is not large. If it wants to become a large city, it will take many years of accumulation.
If immigrants join in, it will greatly speed up the process.
The other party is a third-level extraordinary person who can become a middle-level backbone and have a good publicity effect on the outside world.
Tony couldn't hide the joy on his face, his eyes sunk into the fat flesh:
"Haha, it's my honor to be accepted by you, Your Excellency."
"Your Excellency was accepted by the city of Hamers," Crown corrected. Saying that he was accepted by him gave the impression of cultivating personal power, which would easily give people a chance to criticize him.
He is not afraid of this kind of trouble, but he always stays away from trouble that does no good.
"Yes, I feel honored to be accepted by Hammers City."
The two chatted for a while and then the carriage drove to St. Peter's Basilica.
The carriage drove in from the side door. Tony got off first and helped open the door. "Sir, I am not qualified to see the Pope. You will have to go alone from now on."
Klauen nodded slightly: "Thank you for your company along the way.
If you travel to Hammerstown, look for Del Smith at Moya's Blacksmith Shop, which can be found on Solent Street, and he can help you.
When I get back, I will greet him and ask him to receive you.
If you have friends who want to go to Hamers, you can go together.”
"Yes, sir."
Tony straightened up and answered in a booming voice.
The two separated and Crown headed for the Pope's Palace.
In the Pope's Palace, Arthur said enthusiastically, "What a rare guest. Monsignor Crown has come to St. Peter's Basilica on his own initiative. I remember only one time. Come and take a seat."
He muttered to himself that the other party was not a person who liked to move around, and he must have come here for something.
The last time the other party came was to borrow knowledge.
If he had not been in the Pope's secret room, where he could see the sixth-level knowledge being triggered, he would still be encouraged by the other party's advancement to the sixth level.
Klauen bowed slightly and said gently, "First of all, congratulations on your advancement to a fifth-level transcendent."
He took out a box of Mingxin Pendants from his space ring and gave it to them:
"This is a little gadget I made. It can be used to enhance the wearer's resistance to the laws of the evil god."
The box is made of the heart of black walnut, with the wood's own mountain-shaped pattern on the surface, and twelve pendants are stored inside.
"I actually received a gift this time. It seems that the other party wants something from me. But what kind of situation would a sixth-level extraordinary person encounter that would make him ask for help?"
Arthur's thoughts raced through his mind in an instant, and he thought quickly while opening the box.
He took out a pendant that exuded a warm and spiritual light, and exclaimed in amazement:
"it's beautiful."
The light shuttles through the jade pendant, reflecting gentle light and shadow like a dream.
Putting the pendant back into the box, the Pope nodded with satisfaction: "I am very satisfied with this gift, thank you."
“As long as Your Majesty likes it, I have activated the magic circle inside the pendant. As long as the wearer wears it for more than one day, the pendant will remember the spiritual power fluctuations of the maker.
As the time of wearing increases, the Mingxin Pendant gradually becomes the exclusive property of the owner and cannot be used by others. "
This is a new type of pendant that Crown had specially modified. He gave one to each of his core members, and paired it with a diamond pendant.
"Haha, I can't wait to feel its power."
Arthur was more satisfied, and said:
"Giving gifts when meeting someone is not your style. How can I help you?"
He accepted the gift and would consider helping as appropriate.
"Haha," Crown laughed. Giving gifts when asking for something is normal, but this behavior is inconsistent with his previous personality and is bound to be seen through.
Since the other party has already exposed his purpose, he might as well just reveal his cards directly. There is no point in making things confusing and confusing.
"It is true that I have an important matter that I would like to ask for your help. In fact, I have been promoted to the sixth-level extraordinary for some time."
He stopped talking, thinking about giving the other party time to calm down.
But when he saw Arthur's unmoved expression, he asked, "You don't seem surprised?!"
“There are some secret arrays in the church that can directly detect sixth-order transcendents.
I knew this the last time Your Excellency came to St. Peter's Basilica."
Arthur felt a sense of pleasure in prying into other people's secrets.
"Do you think I don't know your current level without you telling me? No, I know everything!"
"It turns out that Your Majesty already knew about it. That makes it easy."
Clown paused and continued, "I now feel that practicing breathing techniques can no longer help me improve my physical fitness. I looked inside my body and found that almost all of my blood had been refined into silver blood.
What I want to ask you is how to enter the golden level of the Holy Mark."
Arthur's calm face flushed, he subconsciously came over and said:
"What did you say you wanted to ask?"
Arthur felt like he was hallucinating. How long had it taken for the other party to advance to the sixth level? ! He had actually reached the end of the sixth level.
Even the gods themselves would not have been better than the other back then.
"You heard me right. I want to ask you about the issue of advancing to Holy Soul Gold."
The Pope stood up, he felt something on his chair that prevented him from sitting comfortably.
After a while, Arthur sat down again and said, "You have brought great news, but we are unable to help you.
The secret method of advancing to the rank of a god involves the foundation of the church, and such secret method is not preserved in St. Peter's Basilica.
Not to mention our church, all other churches have specific secret methods that will not be preserved.
Because this kind of secret method has always been taught by the gods themselves."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
He had already digested the news that the other party had reached the peak of level six. The stronger the other party was, the safer the many parishes in the north of the kingdom would be.
In this era of the revival of the evil god, he hopes there will be more people like this, as long as they are willing to obey his commands.
If the other party had found him a few days earlier, he might have been worried about whether he could maintain the stability of the church.
Now Arthur is not worried about this problem, because he has successfully established contact with the ancestors. The ancestors told him that the spiritual concentration in the spiritual world is increasing faster, and the kingdom of God will descend to the material world at a faster speed.
"Is there no other solution?"
Clown did not give up. Now had come to a critical moment. As long as he could get some reference information and correct the direction of his efforts, he would be able to step into the golden level of the Holy Mark.
The Pope shook his head and said helplessly:
"No, after the end of the last era, the spiritual wave began to decline sharply.
Even if the gods left behind secret methods, others would never be able to use them.”
Five days later.
The setting sun was slanting through the forest. Crown was flying with a serious expression, and the wings behind him were flapping mechanically.
It was obvious that his mind was not on flying.
The trip to Bray was of no help to him.
While flying back to Hamers, he pondered and finally came up with an idea.
After becoming a sixth-order transcendent, his physical fitness no longer improved. The only thing he could feel was that his mental strength was still slowly increasing.
The power of the body stagnates, but the power of the mind can be further explored.
If he wanted to break through to the silver level, the only possibility was to continuously refine his mental strength. What he lacked now was a secret method of refinement.
Clown's originally depressed mood instantly improved a lot. If there was no ready-made secret method, he could create one.
Skills like Blade Storm were all independently developed by him.
Eliza came out to greet her husband. Seeing the smile on his face, she said:
"From your expression, I can tell that you are in a good mood. Is everything going well?"
"On the contrary," Crown shook his head, "things didn't go well, and I gained almost nothing of value."
"But I can clearly see that you are in a good mood?"
Eliza was puzzled. Since she hadn't accomplished anything worthwhile, shouldn't she be frustrated?
"I feel good because I understand one thing. Who is the first god in the world?"
Eliza was stunned. For a long time, every church claimed that they served the first god born in the world, but when one really looked into the matter in detail, one would find that it was all nonsense.
Without waiting for the other party to answer, Clown said loudly: "I don't know who the first god in the world is, but I know that he must have tried countless methods when he broke through."
The golden wall is a good thing, as it allows people to always understand their progress, but it also caused him to develop a bad habit of not wanting to think deeply, and he would try to avoid anything that was slightly complicated.
"There are no roads in the world, but the predecessors were able to forge a path, and I think I can do the same."
His voice was not loud, but Eliza could hear the firm belief hidden in it.
"Well, I believe you can accomplish it."
She paused, then continued, “My ancestor tried hard to achieve the status of a god but failed, but his important notes were preserved.
I would like to go to the Kingdom of Budamia and see if I can borrow the notes of my ancestors.
I think as long as you are given an idea, you can solve these problems quickly. "
Crown raised his hand and ruffled his wife's platinum hair: "Haha, maybe you are the only one who has confidence in me."
"It's not that I have confidence in you, but you have proven your strength countless times."
Eliza raised her head proudly, looking very proud of herself.
Clown held her in his arms, hugged her tightly, and said gently, "I am worthy of your trust forever."
When he returned from Bray City, he started making plans for the next few days.
The visualization of the Golden Light Mantra should still be maintained for one hour every day, and the practice time of the two breathing methods should be shortened, leaving half an hour for each method every day.
Of the remaining time, he took out an hour to improve the time hourglass, an hour to refine his flying skills, and the rest of the time, he would devote himself to studying the secret method of refining his mental strength.
In the past, Clown used his strong physical fitness to nourish his spirit, but now that his body has completed the transformation of the silver blood, there is no room for improvement.
It is only through tempering the mental power and then promoting its sublimation that a leap forward in physical functions can be achieved.
After a moment of tenderness, Eliza said:
"I plan to leave for the Kingdom of Budamia as soon as possible. The family's airship for transporting supplies will take off the day after tomorrow and can directly reach Dehar Manor."
She understood that if she could find inspiration for her husband as soon as possible, she might get a big surprise.
“Okay, you should be careful and let Melissa or Lorraine accompany you.
Before boarding the airship, have all crew members take a golden potion.
An airship crashed in the city of Bligh. After investigation, it was discovered that the pilot was an ordinary person who had been bewitched and became a minion of the evil god.
The mindsets of those who have been contaminated have changed, and they are no longer our companions.”
"Is it so dangerous? I understand," Eliza tilted her head and asked, "Can ordinary people who have lived in the pollution law for a long time use the golden light potion to treat themselves?"
Clown shook his head. "People like that are already terminally ill. There is no cure. It can only be effectively treated in the early stages of contamination."
