MTL - Xiling Empire-Chapter 1562 Twin gods
A word of Celine suddenly praying in a whisper made me suddenly raise my ears: "May the **** of technology bless Ailu."
"The **** of science and technology?" I asked subconsciously, and then I felt that it was inappropriate to ask: If this is a globally popular religion, it would be a little strange for me to be so surprised. However, it seems that Celine didn't think too much, or that most people wouldn't think that there would be such a thing as a foreign guest. She just nodded: "I believe in the **** of science and technology, and once was a theocratic priest ... although there was no way in religion later Jingjin left the Great Diocese, but his membership is still a priest in the town. By the way, if you want to perform a blessing ceremony when you leave for the ruins, you can come to me, although the **** of technology is not as good as the blessing ceremony. The magic **** works, but there are no other priests in the town. The nearest magic priest is still in another town dozens of miles away. "
I suddenly choked again: there is still a magic god? And seeing Celine's attitude, the two beliefs have not yet conflicted?
Seeing my expression was obviously a bit misunderstood, she waved her hands indifferently: "Of course, it ’s okay if you do n’t want to. Most people who go out for adventure do n’t believe in this ritual, and even the foreigners from the east will think it would be unlucky to accept the ritual before going out. Just as I didn't mention it. "
I hurriedly said: "Oh ... I don't really have any idea, just look at the situation. If I feel uneasy when I set off, I will look for you. By the way, I just read that you were reading over there. I was going to reopen the hotel so I was sorting out. Account? "
Hearing the words "the **** of technology" made a lot of associations, I finally couldn't help but open the topic to the strange and out-of-date fine print, and at the same time I quickly thought about Celine Institute What's going on with the denominations here?
"It's not an account, it's just turning over the classics issued by the church," said Celine with a smile. "Anyway, the membership is still there. The books I send out every month are things that I pass the time every day. Why, scholar Mr. you Also interested in teaching the **** of technology? "
"Um. I just wanted to say just now, don't be so polite with 'you' or something, I'm not used to it," I waved my hand, and then placed my eyes on the table in the distance, intentionally or unintentionally. "It was originally issued by the church. , To be honest I'm interested ... can I see it? "
I think this is just a very ordinary request, but I didn't expect Celine to frown: "Mr. Scholar, please don't make me embarrassed, church books can only be viewed by clergy. Printed books are also prohibited from circulation, if you are only right I can help if the teaching of the **** of technology is interested, but if you are interested in books ... I still hope you can find mimeographs available in the market, the content is actually the same. "
I suppressed the deep surprises and surprises in my heart, making my face appear to be just joking, and pointed my finger at the distant table: "Then you just put the printed book on the table so you do n’t worry about Ailu secretly taking it Go out. "
"The printed book is a sacred light, of course, it can be placed anywhere, and it is not a contraband. It is just too sacred and solemn to circulate," Celine looked serious. "As for Elw ... the child is naughty, but also It has common sense. And most people will not sell printed books. After all, apart from the printed traces left by divine power, the contents of the books can be seen elsewhere. "
I found that Celine's expression was already a little too serious, so she smiled and exposed the current topic: "Aha. Don't mind, don't mind, research, sometimes you can't control your curiosity. Since the content is the same. Then Could you lend me a few mimeographs? Or it would be boring at night-I haven't found where the booksellers in town are, and I was dragged by Ailu for a long time and went looking for taverns and grocery stores. "
Speaking of the glorious record of the bear child Ailu, Celine suddenly softened, and she got up and walked to the desk and said, "Of course, you can watch as long as you like. Some people are so enthusiastic about pursuing knowledge and it is very comforting. "
In the end, I got three rough books that also smelt the ink fragrance. Of course, the density of the mimeographs was thinner than the refined publications printed by lasers, so adding these three books together was the content of a church book of the same thickness. , But I'm just curious about its contents, so it doesn't matter if it is refined or not. After you go back, scan the book and upload it to the Empire, and let the host translate it.
At this time, the sky was completely dark. As a low-tech area in the feudal farming era, the locals here did not have much nightlife, so the streets in the town were so deserted that even strangers who came for adventure could no longer see them. , A roadside lamppost lit with a certain kind of vegetable oil exudes a wobbly yellow light, which outlines a quiet night scene of a classical town.
Celine got up and closed the gate. When she saw the quiet street outside, she said to me, "There are actually other hotels in the town. Adventurers who come here seem to have places to stay, but the local hotels should be full in a few days. Every time there is a new relic open, the adventure craze is several years long, and the short one is several months. Maybe our hotel really has a chance to reopen ... At that time, if you are still in town, you must come to join us. "
"If I was still at that time." I said as I looked at the single mother again, and I could see an inexhaustible tiredness and the lingering coldness from the other side, starting just now I can feel her temperament is so special: she is tired, lonely, and seems to have lost motivation for many things. What is revealed in the conversation is a sense of lifelessness, but it is obvious that she is also fighting against herself This tendency of depression, she also seems to want to make her performance more energetic, and strive to find something to do-but this effort seems to have little effect.
The feeling of loneliness and lifelessness still permeated from her, and finally filled the whole big house, such a huge house, but there was only a single mother who lost her motivation and goals, and a young child who was immature. I am afraid I can Imagine how Elro's weird personality developed. In fact, the little girl was not developed with depression, but instead went to extreme hyperactivity, but it was a good thing ...
The night was dark, and I had to hurry up to study the three books at hand. So I said goodnight to Celine and asked me where the room was. Then I went upstairs by myself. Footsteps walking in one direction.
The second floor of this hotel (or once it was a hotel) is a classic rental house structure. After going upstairs, there is a narrow corridor, with the outer wall on one side and the rows of doors on the other side. Of course all the rooms are empty now. I saw that the door at the end of the corridor was even blocked by various sundries. It can be seen that the hotel has been closed for a long time-but the little girl Ai Lu really hopes that her hotel can be reopened. Perhaps the child also felt that Life is too boring now.
My room was closest to the stairs. I pushed in and found the furnishings were simple: a bed, a chair, a small desk, and a small wooden cabinet that didn't seem to fit much. All the furnishings. That's it. But the room was very clean. The cleaning of Celine and Elw before seemed to be in place, and the smell of plants and herbs permeated the air. Maybe it is used to leave the moldy smell of the room left unused for a long time. The only bed in the room was near the window, and there were new sheets and bedding on it. I threw three books on it, and then ... Then Sandola jumped to the bed with joy and started to roll around. Already.
It seems that this matter has not been mentioned for a long time: Sandora likes to roll in soft places, and most people really don't know her biggest hobby besides eating.
"It's quite complete, I feel embarrassed," I looked at the brand new bedding, and found a new set of pajamas and a small note in the small wooden cabinet (I can't understand what is written above), Can't help scratching her hair. "Twenty copper plates deceived a meal and a room, and that copper plate was made by us two in a second ..."
"Ah, don't worry about the details, it's the copper plate, whether it's made temporarily or not, and it won't affect the circulation on this planet." Sandora bounced on the soft bed and lifted while jumping. Invisible, "The **** of technology and the **** of magic on this planet sounds very interesting ... the **** of technology understands it well, maybe it is something left by the lost science and technology civilization. It is quite common in the periodical civilization, But why is there a magic **** at the same time ... Except for the empire, I really haven't found that there are several civilizations that can develop science and technology simultaneously and not fight each other. "
"Who knows what's going on. Maybe I can find clues in these books." I also ran all day long. At this time, I was still a bit tired mentally, so I threw myself into the bed while talking, At this moment, the Sandora ball just landed from the air to the edge of the bed, so the moment when it bounced on the side of the bed ... The Sandora ball went out of the window!
There was a suspicious collision sound from the window, and then a golden ball rushed back from the window and hit me in a desperate slam, followed by a 360-degree ping-pong collision.嚷嚷: "Ajun, what's wrong with you! What are you doing so loudly? Why are many of your actions so strange after I become a ball! If I have a mouth now I will bite you!"
It took me a lot of effort to catch the Sandola ball (which is even more difficult than catching Dingdong), and I muttered in my heart: this place looks quite backward, but there are still spring pads ... The tree of science and technology is really easy to crook.
Then the two of us finally started to do business: study the three "religious books" that exude the fragrance of ink.
The text in the book is not known, but this does not affect our reading. You only need to scan a part of the text and send it to the Empire, and the latter can translate according to the regularity of the text. There will still be some misinterpretations of the vocabulary, but this does not affect the understanding of the text. In fact, Sandora could translate this foreign text herself, but she was lazy.
It seems that the damage of mental power and the inability to eat into a light ball have caused Her Majesty to be in a certain state of burnout.
"It looks like a normal ... storybook?" I leaned on the bed, opened the book stall on my lap, and Sandora dangled on my shoulder softly, after reading some passages in the book Sandora muttered, "I'm talking about local customs and country stories around the world, and they're all recent, without mentioning ancient civilization or anything."
"Celin said that the church must print these things every month. Maybe this is equivalent to the religious internal journal, which is about current affairs in the past month." I opened a new page and found this page and beyond. It's about the recent combat experience of a knight in a southern country. This is an obvious medieval story. It's a bit exaggerated, but it has nothing to do with the lost civilization, even to "religion". You have to say this thing. It looks like a transcript of a battlefield reporter. Only at the end of the story is there a comment given by the bishop in a certain area. The basic content of the comment is that the knights are brave and good at fighting, and they can win more. The knight leader is a noble person, a pure person, a A ethical person, a person out of low-level tastes, a person beneficial to the people, a person with seven swords in his chest can attack more than two hundred kilometers to capture the thieves, a person who is too fierce to eat. According to this comment and the previous Knights' story, the only thing I can conclude is that the bishop of the local parish has a deep-girl to be married at home, and she is about to marry the Knights head ...
Sandola suspected that my reading was slow, so she jumped onto the bed and controlled the remaining two books floating with her mental strength, flipping through the book by herself, I couldn't help but tilt her a look: "It's not that the spherical body is inconvenient to move. , Is physical manipulation consuming energy, willing to move again at this time? "
"It's annoying. It's annoying--who makes you read slowly!" The sound of Sandora sounded in the golden light ball, and at the same time the two books had been half-turned by her (laughing) . Then she finally found out, "Ajun, look, you finally mentioned the gods!"
I hurried over and saw that it was a few newsletter-like things:
"The **** of technology descended a new deity and was paraphrased by the pope of science and technology: open two ancient ruins around the Vassarian city-state. Allow adventurers on the continent to explore and hope that the adventurers will keep in mind the grace and magnanimity of the gods, And in the process of exploring the ruins, we strictly abide by the teachings of God and cherish our lives. We should be cautious about the intellectual heritage with taboo power and may the gods shine. The following are the specific locations of the relics opened by the grace of God and the scope of surveys allowed ... ... "
"Two new standards for the recovery of ancient heritage have been added to the technology **** side, and the recycling of fragments of ancient devices (see attached table for specifications) and the recovery of ancient symbols and broken chapters have been re-regulated. I hope that adventurers across the continent will keep in mind the teachings of gods and ancient betrayers. The lesson left. It is clear that mortals cannot directly draw power from ancient installations, nor can they learn any knowledge from the mere words left by the gods, because this knowledge is deprived and temporarily sealed by the gods from ancient betrayers, and it is decided by the gods Before returning knowledge to the hands of mortals, do n’t try to read it arbitrarily. This will lead to the end of the world. I hope that adventurers from all over the mainland can strictly abide by the dogma and send qualified relics to the church for storage in accordance with the rules. When mortals are allowed to learn this overly powerful knowledge, the adventurers will enter the ranks of saints who laid the foundation for the new era. At the same time, the church will once again increase the remuneration for the relics that meet the standard (see the specific increase) Table). At the same time re-emphasizes the revelation under the pope's crown: money cannot be measured The grace, the money just to reward merit for the founding fathers record before the arrival of a new era. "
"The **** of magic lowered the oracle and was paraphrased by the pope of magic: the power of magic is being revived in the northern twelve island chain, and the efforts of the believers delight the gods, but it is also necessary to keep in mind the lessons of the old disasters, the discovery of magic power and Sorting out must also follow the doctrines of Lost Theology. Be cautious and not intrude. All ancient equipment and ancient runes should be immediately handed over to the local parish for safekeeping. The excavator must not keep it privately, nor should it be privately studied. Over-developed knowledge There will be disaster. The gods have set a course for the mortal. We should follow this path and wait for the grace of the gods to continue to study more difficult knowledge. Only in this way can we avoid the recurrence of the old disaster. "
"The Pope of Magic and Technology issued a joint statement that the rally of adventurers in St. Ankerha was essentially a taboo of knowledge exchange. Church monks found unregistered ancient equipment (classes and This kind of offensive activity must be stopped immediately. Saint Ank III has closed the assembly hall in response to this sacred call. The two popes have called on all adventurers who have participated in this illegal exchange to take the initiative to confess to the nearest clergy. And hand in the private ancient belongings, which are well known ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ Those who actively confess will be forgiven by God. This call will last for two months ... "
"Further investigations are being conducted into the illegal academic research organization of St. Ankerha. It has been determined that magical associations from the south are involved. They have travelled north and have concealed the monks in four parishes in succession. To quit ... "
One third of one of the mimeographs is a newsletter of this kind, which seems to have a strong sense of current news, and each message is accompanied by a date and an expiration date, which fully confirms our guess: match What Lin reads is a monthly religious magazine.
And from this "monthly", we finally have a preliminary understanding of the sects in this world, we must admit, this is a bit ... unexpected.
"Now it seems that this lost deity is the strongest sect even if it is not the only religion in the world," Sandora flew over and leaned against my face. "Their power extends to the entire planet, many of the things mentioned above. They are from all over the world, and sectarian power has almost dominance in these areas. "
"And they also believe in the two gods at the same time," I tossed the mimeograph in my hand, feeling my head more chaotic than before. "The **** of technology and the **** of magic ... oh, I don't understand." ...)
