Chapter 132 Chapter 132(1/4)
"Lord Ryan, your friend did not find the seed of light in Isidore's body. How is this possible?"
Katyusha raised her right hand slightly, her fingertips lifted the ends of her hair that fell on her ears, and looked at the place where the light was the strongest. "The seed of light can only be condensed by successive popes, and it can enhance the affinity of the light element of the priests in the temple.
It can also speed up the increase in their strength.
All the chosen saints, saints, and high-ranking bishops will have seeds of light planted in their bodies by the pope. This is also the method used by the pope to control... and prevent them from betraying."
Speaking of this, Katyusha's eyes dimmed, and her voice was mixed with doubts, "If there is no seed of light in Isidore's body, how could he be chosen to become the Holy Son? And the light in Isidore's body is real.
It’s so strong, I felt it the moment he came to Oran.”
Cecil did not participate in the conversation between them. He shrunk his body into a suitable size, swayed the tip of his tail, and moved to the vicinity of the Demonic Coral while holding the Celestial Bird.
"It's true, Katyusha, there is indeed no seed of light in Isidore's body."
Ryan thought for a few seconds, then looked at Katyusha and said: "Maybe Isidore... he is a very special existence for the temple, or maybe he was born with the light element and has a high affinity with it.
.And Isidore also said that the Pope is currently in a posture of praying to the gods, and the end time of the prayer is unknown, but in any case, he is just Isidore of Oran now."
Not only did he check it himself, but the system also confirmed that there is no seed of light in Isidore's body. Then the answer must be in the secret that can affect the Temple of Light.
Ryan was very curious about Isidore, what was the secret that the system called exciting, but the price was too expensive and he couldn't afford it. Maybe he could start looking for it from Isidore, who used to be a prince.
"Then it seems that he must be a genius among geniuses. However, the temple always does some things that people can't understand, but maybe it would be a good choice for Isidore to give up his identity as the Holy Son and become a light mage.
"
Katyusha hummed slightly, no longer worrying about the Seed of Light, "And you seem to be very optimistic about Isidore?"
"How should I put it, this kind of thing..."
Ryan gently clasped his hands and did not mention the ban on books. "I am going to build a bookshop and let Isidore be in charge. After all, books can enrich people's spiritual world, and good books can also make money easily.
Also, I want to see if Isidore can train some light mages for Orlando."
The goal is to gather mages and other professionals from all factions to create the optimal territory. He can already think of ways to get a few hundred million people back from other nobles.
Katyusha, "I see, books are indeed good things. In addition, as the former Holy Son of Light, Isidore should have read a lot or collected some precious magic books."
"I think so too." Ryan agreed, and then asked: "What about you, Ms. Katyusha."
Ryan: "You seem to know something about the Temple of Light?"
After all, the Seed of Light is the secret of the temple.
"I don't know much about the temple. As for the Seed of Light, this is because I have seen the real thing before."
Listening to Ryan's question, Katyusha pursed her lips slightly, lowered her eyes and whispered softly: "During a witch hunt held in the Temple of Light, I once met a large number of lower-level priests and priests together with many witches.
The middle clergyman, who led the group of temple people in the witch hunt at that time, was a cardinal...
In order to survive, a group of witches and I fought a battle that lasted for many days with the people in the temple. However, they misjudged the power of the witches. The lower priests and the middle priests were no match for us.
, but that cardinal can resurrect from the dead infinitely, which is even weirder than the necromancer."
Ryan's eyebrows slightly lowered, "Infinite, resurrected from the dead?"
Infinite resurrection?
This is very abnormal.
"Yes, infinite resurrection from the dead, just like someone is remotely releasing the resurrection spell."
Katyusha nodded and repeated it again, continuing to explain the situation that time, "The weaker priests and witches died in the war, and the stronger witch than me killed the cardinal. But when we won,
When he was about to leave, he discovered that the cardinal who led the witch hunt was not really dead.
When the cardinal saw that we discovered that he was alive, he wanted to turn into light and escape, but the witch who was good at space magic blocked the space and he couldn't escape."
"But do you know what happened in the end..."
Without waiting for Ryan to answer, Katyusha's tone suddenly became a little heavier, "Every time we use different magics in rotation to kill the cardinal, but if we can't destroy all his bodies in an instant,
Even if there is only one finger left, the bishop can return to the appearance before death in one breath.
It's just that every time he is resurrected, not only his strength, but his whole body becomes weaker. And rather than the resurrection technique, it's more like someone doesn't want him to die, and at the same time, he is extracting the cardinal's life force from the air."
Just hearing this description made Ryan feel a little creepy. He touched his fingers and continued to ask: "It's not like the orthodox resurrection technique, so what happened next?"
"That cardinal was captured and killed many times by us. Since he could be resurrected indefinitely, and we didn't know if destroying the corpse would cause any other abnormalities, we left some corpses behind each time.
wreckage."
Katyusha took a deep breath and lowered her voice, "Lord Ryan, let me tell you... after the tenth rebirth, the cardinal's body shrunk from a body similar to Andrew's to the height of a goblin.
"
Katyusha: "If we hadn't been sure that he was a real cardinal from the Temple of Light, we would have almost mistakenly thought that the cardinal was an evil being disguised as a priest. In addition, he was resurrected from the dead.
The cardinal didn't seem to feel any pain, and after his tenth rebirth, his chest began to glow."
Having said this, Katyusha closed her eyes and said, "Let a crow break open his chest. What was inside was not a heart, but a withered black seed."
Ryan let out a breath, "Is that black flower seed the seed of light?"
"It is the withered seed of light." Katyusha, "When the crow pecked open the cardinal's chest and took out the withered seed of light in his chest, the cardinal truly died.
"
Ryan: "How did you deal with that withered seed of light in the end?"
"No more."
Katyusha shook her head, "The moment it was taken out, the withered seed disappeared out of thin air."
"The hunted witches all decided to take revenge, so we teamed up to attack a remote temple of light and captured a holy son of light who could not escape in time." Katyusha raised her palm slightly and condensed the magic power into a ball of light.
He said, "This time we did not kill the Holy Son, but directly opened his chest..."
Similarly, there is a glowing seed in his heart. The seed emits countless light filaments and wraps the heart, as if it is absorbing his blood and transmitting magic power, but the color of the end has changed.
red.
The moment a witch took out the seed of light from his chest, the seed of light also disappeared out of thin air."
Katyusha looked up at Ryan and asked: "Lord Ryan, do you know what happened to the body of the Holy Son after the seed of light disappeared?"
Ryan thought for a few seconds and guessed: "Has the affinity between his magic power and the light element weakened?"
"more than."
Katyusha shook her head, "When the Seed of Light was taken out and disappeared, the light element affinity and magic power of the Holy Son of Light disappeared in an instant."
Katyusha's eyes became very cold, "The Holy Son of Light turned directly into an ordinary person. His talent and affinity with the light element were stolen by the seed of light."
Ryan let out a heavy breath, "So it seems that the Pope of the Temple of Light is very problematic. Does anyone else know about these things now?"
Katyusha lowered her eyes, "Besides you, there are a few witches and black magicians. After all, we are all loners. Even if the witches live in the Forest of Witches, they rarely come and go, and the priests of the Temple of Light will not care.
These things.”
Ryan was silent for a while, took out two glasses of watermelon juice from the space ring, used magic to hand one glass to Katyusha, and at the same time looked at her and said: "So this is when you heard me say that Isidore does not have the seed of light in his body.
, will you show surprise?”
"It is true that I am a little surprised, but the Temple of Light has always been like this, and no one can guess the thoughts of the high-ranking priests."
Katyusha answered calmly, took the bright red juice floating in front of her and asked: "Lord Ryan, what is this? The color looks brighter than blood, and it seems to have a faint fragrance."
"I asked my friend to find some special seeds for me. This cup is a juice squeezed from a fruit called watermelon. I think it tastes pretty good."
Ryan explained a few words briefly, and then took out the hollow grass straw and sent it over with mental power, "There are relatively few watermelons planted, but they taste pretty good. I also planted some other rare fruits, and I will give you some when they mature in a few days.
, I don’t know if you will like it.”
Because Katyusha is a woman, Lane did not directly add ice.
Katyusha put the straw into the cup, turned sideways and sucked it gently, slightly raised her pretty eyebrows and replied: "The juice squeezed out of this fruit called watermelon really tastes good."
Cecil came over with Tian Mianniao, looked at the juice Katyusha drank, and then looked up at Ryan, the hint was very obvious.
Ryan reached out and touched the space ring. Instead of taking out the watermelon juice, he took out two watermelons that had been cut in advance.
"This is watermelon. It tastes good if you eat it directly."
Ryan placed a piece of watermelon in front of Cecil. The black snake waited for the celestial bird to fly away from his head, and then lowered its head to bite the watermelon with its fangs.
The celestial bird spread its wings and flew in the air, chirping sweetly at Ryan.
Ryan took a look at its size, cut off one third of the remaining watermelon, fixed it in the air with his mental power, and placed the rest in front of Cecil.
The celestial bird pecked the melon flesh with its beak, and then happily raised the tips of its wings.
Katyusha held the juice cup and thought it would be more interesting to eat the melon meat directly. But it was indeed a fruit, and Katyusha, who usually could only eat sour and dry fruits, felt that the name Ryan was very appropriate.
As for the mulberries from last time, Katyusha also thought they tasted good.
"It's good that you like it. Although Isidore uses light magic, he has left the Temple of Light. I hope you can get along happily in the future."
Ryan explained again and then smiled and said to Katyusha: "Thank you very much for the information you just provided. If I have any information in the future, I will tell you as soon as possible."
"You are joking. I actually don't know much about the Temple of Light, and you don't have to be so polite."
Katyusha held the glass in both hands, hesitated for a few seconds and then said: "If you have accurate information channels, you might as well check whether the successive popes are the same person."
