"I have never regretted my birth." Goblin's voice was firm and clear. "I thank my mother. She used her love and faith to change my destiny and the future of the entire tribe."
Merlin and the others listened quietly, their hearts filled with respect and emotion. They understood that Goblin was not just an awakened goblin, but also a messenger of hope and light. In this land once shrouded in darkness, the story of the Goblin is like a ray of light, illuminating the road to the future.
"I have to admit that I see an indescribable charisma in this goblin." As a prince, Fate felt ashamed of himself.
"Goblint, you are such a great king. Where is your mother?" Chris asked.
Goblint was silent for a moment and then said, "My mother passed away a few years ago. I buried her in the sea of flowers on the top of the mountain. I think that is the place closest to God. I always believe that people with great souls like my mother will return to the embrace of the Goddess of Light after death."
Damn, this is so touching! Chris had tears in her eyes. "I'm sorry, I..."
"It's nothing. Mother is just going to serve the Goddess of Light. This is a good thing."
Merlin listened to the goblin's story, thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Goblin, I just heard you tell me about your experience. You mentioned the sacred ceremony, which is what you call baptism. You mean that you successfully awakened the holy light after baptism, and other goblins also changed through baptism. I want to know what the so-called baptism is."
Goblin grinned after hearing Merlin's question. He suddenly thought of something and said, "So you want to know what baptism is. Baptism is the most sacred thing for our race. Only goblins who have been baptized can evolve and get rid of the bad habits of our race!"
"Chaos, greed, desire... Goblins seem to have endless energy to vent. Only after baptism can they abandon these!"
The Goblin made an inviting gesture and said, "You have come at the right time. Today is the sacred baptism day of our tribe. Many Goblins will be welcoming newborns today. Come and watch the baptism with me!"
Merlin and the other two were very curious when they heard Goblin say this, so they followed Goblin outside.
Goblin led Merlin and the other two through the dark cave and out of the cave. The sunlight shone on them, illuminating the road ahead.
Following the goblin's lead, they came to a small and crude temple of light. Although the structure of the temple is simple, each stone has been carefully selected and carved, showing the goblins' care and respect for the temple.
On the altar in front of the temple stood a group of goblins wearing simple white robes, their faces filled with anticipation and nervousness.
In the center of the altar was a gleaming dagger, the blade of the dagger glowing with a sacred light in the sunlight.
Many goblins gathered around, staring intently at the baptism ceremony that was about to begin. The air was filled with a sacred and solemn atmosphere.
"The baptism is about to begin." Goblin's voice rang in Merlin's ears, his eyes gleaming with pride.
The ceremony began, and the goblins on the altar stepped forward one by one, their faces filled with anticipation and anxiety. First, a young goblin walked up to the altar, trembling all over and seemingly terrified of what was about to happen. The goblin comforted him with a gentle voice, then raised the dagger and whispered a prayer to the goddess of light.
"Great Goddess of Light, grant us strength and wisdom, cleanse our souls, and let us get rid of greed and chaos and welcome a brand new life."
Everything was normal up to this point. Merlin and the other two thought that the goblin was using the power of holy light to suppress the goblins' desires, but the goblin's next move surprised them.
The goblin suddenly ripped open the goblin's loincloth, and as Chris blushed and screamed, and as Merlin and Fate looked on with pale faces, the goblin quickly slashed the dagger across the young goblin's lower body.
Puff——
Blood splatters! Instantly the goblin let out a scream of pain.
The white-robed goblin, who had prepared a clay pot long ago, immediately stepped forward and caught the thing that had been cut off in the pot.
The Goblin immediately chanted the power of holy light and began to heal the goblin's lower body, and ordered the white-robed goblin to use potion to heal the injured area.
Blanch! Merlin and Fate couldn't help but hold their breath, their scalps tingled, and their thighs couldn't help but tighten, so this was what the so-called holy baptism meant.
"Waaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!" There were also many goblins who were unwilling to accept this sacred baptism. They struggled angrily and tried to escape, but the goblin's power was like a mountain, preventing them from moving.
"Don't be afraid, this step is necessary, our bad roots must be eliminated!" Goblin tore open the loincloth of the goblin who was afraid of corners, and the dagger in his hand swept past beautifully.
As the dagger slashed, under the restoration of holy light and hemostatic powder, the expressions of anger and fear on the young goblin's face gradually disappeared, replaced by an indescribable tranquility and gentleness. His eyes became clear, as if his soul was cleansed and he regained the meaning of life.
This is definitely more desireless than a middle-aged man in his forties looking at his own wife.
Merlin's mouth twitched slightly as he watched Goblin caress the goblin who had been "neutered".
The goblin knelt on the ground, his face full of tears. He raised his head and said excitedly, "I have never been so peaceful! I... I feel the light!"
No, no, no, you are hallucinating because of the pain, right? How can you not be peaceful? Without that thing, and free from the lowest level of desires, it would be strange if you were not peaceful.
Merlin and the other two were stunned. This scene shocked them. The baptism process was not as mysterious and solemn as they had imagined, but so straightforward and cruel. However, after the pain, it brought about the awakening and rebirth of the soul.
The next goblins walked up to the altar one after another, experiencing the same pain and transformation. Every time a goblin completes the baptism, the pain on his face disappears instantly, replaced by a sacred glow, and their hearts seem to be cleansed, becoming soft and peaceful.
Merlin discovered that the ferocious pupils of the goblins whose balls and roots had been cut off had become blurred and rounded. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that both Goblin Te and other goblins that had completed the baptism looked much "softer" than ordinary goblins.
