Son of Light 8
Singela looked at him with a smile, glanced at him when he lowered his head, and silently added in his heart.
Oracles are often issued, but you are the first one to be personally received by the Pope. However, it is best not to know.
---------
The Temple of Light is built in the very center of the Central Church. The entire temple consists of three parts: St. Noah's Square in the front, the Dawn Hall in the center, and the meeting hall at the back.
Saint Noah was the first Pope in the history of the Church of Light and the first believer in the God of Light. After his death, people named the Temple Square after him to commemorate him, and his statue was also built in the center of the square, standing in a pious posture and watching over the statue in the temple. It is another pilgrimage point for believers who come here to make the pilgrimage.
The Dawn Hall is the largest in area. The entire hall was built at a huge cost. It is made of white marble from the inside out. Even the hollow windows are trimmed with gold foil. The ancient murals on the corridor walls praise the deeds of the God of Light, and a heavy sense of history is overwhelming.
Walking along the long corridor into the central hall, the layout of the hall is not as gorgeous as the outside, but it is more solemn and dignified.
The hall is circular and has eight doors. When you walk through the hollow platinum door, the surrounding noise suddenly disappears.
The ground is made of water magic stone, which is deep and dark. When people step on it, ripples appear, as if they are traveling in the deep sea.
The statue placed in the center is eight meters long. It looks majestic, handsome and imposing. It is made of extremely rare light magic stone. There are layers of seals on the outside, and it is shrouded by divine power, emitting a misty white light. When you get close to it, you will feel comfortable all over.
The sunlight shines onto the statue through the hollow glass above, giving the entire hall a sacred atmosphere.
Luli walked out of the hall quietly with the devout believers. The corridors also led to many small prayer halls and confessionals, but Luli did not go over. He just glanced at the tall and sacred statue from a distance and walked out of the temple through the side door.
The meeting hall at the back was a place that only clergy could enter, but one could not enter without an important matter. Looking at the Knights Templar patrolling around, Luli stopped for a while before leaving. He fed the white pigeons alone in St. Noah Square for a while, and then Luli waited for Singela who came hurriedly.
He has been practicing divine power for three years. During this period, the Pope visited him several times, but Singela drove him out every time. Although no one knew what the relationship between the two was, he was probably the only one who could joke and joke with the Pope freely.
He had come to the temple to worship countless times and was very familiar with the place.
Since becoming a devout believer, his strength has begun to improve by leaps and bounds. Not only that, Singela also said that he himself has an extremely rare light magic vein, but it has been sealed by someone.
After Singela effortlessly removed the seal for him, Luli's strength began to soar, and now he is a silver priest and a silver-ringed light magician.
Except for the initial introductory teaching, Singela completely let him go, just throwing him a pile of ancient books and letting him study on his own. He often disappeared, and occasionally only saw him once every ten days or half a month. Every time they met, he would inevitably be picked up and rubbed, treating him like a child.
It is precisely because Singla has no airs as a mentor that Luli has been getting along quite well with him so far. Singla always responds to his requests. Although he is unreliable, he never gives less than what is due, but instead gives a lot.
A man of equal height and long legs walked in front of him. Luli then clapped his hands and stood up. A large flock of white doves flew up with his movements.
Luli looked at Singela, frowned at his thoughtful expression, and said, "Teacher, what happened?"
Singla's thoughts were interrupted. He shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it when we get back."
-----------
"The speed of the abyss invasion has accelerated?" Luli frowned and muttered.
This time, Singela went to the conference hall to discuss with the senior management, thinking that it was just a routine business report, but he did not expect to bring back such a piece of news.
The abyss, the starting point of all malice and the birthplace of original sin. Countless planes have been dragged into the abyss, and countless planes have been lifted up from the abyss by the gods.
Now, in the universe, there is only one plane, the St. Lucia plane, which has the largest area, the most inhabitants, and can support the arrival of the true God. There are many planes shining like stars clinging to it around it, and at the bottom of these planes is the abyss.
"Well, the energy levels of the Emerald Plane and Leonster Plane, which can support the arrival of gold-level outsiders, have dropped. Now, only silver-level outsiders are allowed to descend."
Singla's expression looked serious and sad, but there was no anxiety or urgency in his expression.
“Hasn’t the Abyss Expedition Team been fighting in the lower plane all the time? Why is it still…” Lu Li was speechless.
Singela's expression said it all, and Luli chose to keep his mouth shut.
He was fifteen years old this year. Three years of training and Singla's constant nourishment had made his originally thin and malnourished body recover rapidly. His height had gradually increased, and his appearance had become more and more cool and attractive. Of course, he was still slender and thin compared to Singla.
Nowadays, there is basically no one in his peers who can surpass him in cultivation. In addition, he is cold and taciturn, which gives people an extremely strong sense of alienation. Even if there are people in his peers who want to make friends with him, they will be scared away by his aura of keeping strangers away. The only people left are those who are jealous of him.
But cultivation is one thing, and strength is another.
Converting one's cultivation into actual combat ability requires continuous training, and the best way is high-intensity combat.
Luli's eyes flickered slightly. He had reached a bottleneck in his training. He had just passed the assessment of the College of Cardinals, one of the three departments of the Central Vatican this year. It was the time when he needed to study hard and gain experience. This was also what Singela expected, but it was not what Luli wanted.
"Teacher, I want to join the expedition team." Looking at Singela who looked a little bored, Luli said silently.
Singla looked up, his handsome face full of disapproval. He frowned and said, "No."
The tone was firm and left no room for argument.
Luli had been with him for three years and had figured out his temper, so he knew that he would definitely not agree to him going.
But... he had to go.
"Teacher, I wanted to join the expedition last year, but you disagreed. At that time, you said my strength wasn't enough. Even after I was promoted to Silver this year, you still disagreed. So, may I ask, when can I go? Are you going to keep me trapped in your protective circle forever?"
