The Great Temple of Light, this is a magnificent building.
Looking around, not to mention the tall snow-white huge stone buildings inside and outside the temple, there is also a huge and lifelike statue of Lucilis, the goddess of light that is dozens or hundreds of meters high!
At a rough look, its luxury and grandeur directly compares the palace castle in the Kingdom of Kalsas.
However, if you think about it carefully, this is actually inevitable.
After all, the "God of Light" or the "Luxilis Cult" is one of the few, or even the only large churches on the Elusalia continent. The goddess of light, Luxilis, is an almost well-known existence on this continent. It can even show the power of divineness, respond to believers, show divine arts, and display miracles, etc. Therefore, it is natural that many believers can build such a large temple here.
And today, while Anne was strolling, she naturally came here. This is Esdrew, a place called the holy land, which is the location of the Great Temple of Light.
Anne had heard of this place. It is said that the fools Alvin, Hayn and Leana, who were rescued by her outside that small village, came here as soon as possible and tried to seek shelter.
As for the result...
Of course, the Imperial Army had no mercy at all and drove Alvin and the other two out of here.
Then, it happened that the three of them ran to Kalsas and Kalsas were almost destroyed, and they were almost burned to death when they visited the great magician who used the art of reincarnation.
Of course, those things have happened in the past and have long become no longer important. Now, what is important is that Anne has come here.
“…”
╭(⊙o⊙)╮
Anne saw at a glance that there were many fresh attack marks on the huge decorative pillars and corridors outside the temple gate, some of which were caused by magic, while others were left behind after the sword was slashed, and they have not been repaired to this day.
Obviously, the battle that happened here was definitely not as relaxed as Alvin and Hayn said, otherwise, there would definitely not be so many traces left, and there seemed to be a faint smell of blood on the ground.
At the same time, Anne also saw that there were still many Templars inside and outside the gate, and the priests and monks were patrolling and on duty nervously, and there were many elite Holy Horse Cavalrymen flying by occasionally in the sky.
It is obvious that after this temple was raided and threatened by the soldiers of the Imperial Army, the senior officials of the Lucilis Cult in the temple must have mobilized the strength of the church as soon as possible and urgently increased the level of alert and defense here, and sent a large number of high-end armed forces of the church.
That is the real reason why Anne can see so many monks, cavalry and Pegasus troops entrenched around this temple.
However, Anne just just took a look at and guessed casually, and she would definitely not take it seriously.
Besides, she just wandered around and got here, and curiously followed the devout believers to see the lively. Whether the defense here is upgraded or not, or how many powerful Templars guarded it, it doesn't matter to her.
"ha!"
?(?)?
Because the monk soldiers and the Templars who were standing guard on both sides of the gate did not mean to stop or interrogate the believers, Anne passed through and jumped to the courtyard inside the gate without any obstacles, and was able to see the huge statue of the "Goddess of Light" close up.
“Wow…”
(°〼°〃)
Anne looked up at the statue and let out a subconscious voice.
It was a beautiful big sister carved from white stone. A huge long legs were exposed on the edge of the exposed skirt and reached the base of her legs. However, the other party was wearing safety pants, so he was not worried that the fat people would be seen by those devout believers who would worship and pray after coming in.
(…)
(●￣?￣●)
“It’s really big!”
(⊙o⊙)
"but……"
(??ˇ?ˇ?ˇ??)
"Isn't it just a broken stone statue? It seems that nothing is amazing."
(ˉ▽￣￞］)Tsk~~
Annie ignored the slandering believers next to her and the priests who were preaching the sects around her. She just looked up for a while, then curled her lips and commented, and then planned to turn into the temple and go for the places she had never been to.
Anyway, she seems to have many similar statues in countless worlds, but she never pays attention to the boring prayers of those boring believers. Compared to those boring demands, she might as well listen to her little bear's muttering.
(…)
(￢?￢.)
"Let's go Tibers..."
～o(▽｀ o)=3 =3 =3
“!!”
!?(?''??)?
However, without waiting for Anne to leave, perhaps seeing that she is the only one who does not pray to the statue of God, perhaps hearing the disrespectful words she just said to the goddess?
Anyway!
At this time, an old man wearing a white priest's robe suddenly appeared from somewhere and stood in front of Anne at the right place.
“Huh?”
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"Bald grandpa, you are blocking someone's way. Can you give in?"
ヾ(^▽^*)))
"You almost stepped on someone just now!"
(??ˇεˇ??)
Annie first looked up at the smiling old man who was blocking her eyes, then blinked, and then, of course, she made a sound without hesitation to let the other party give way and complained.
It's so big here, so it's not good to stand in front of this old man in front of him, but he just stood in front of her and didn't give way. Obviously, he must be here to find fault.
So, Annie's tone was not polite at all when she spoke, and she directly inserted her waist and stared at the other person angrily.
"oh?"
"Sorry, I didn't mean it..."
Although he said that, the old man did not intend to get out of the way and kept smiling foolishly. Obviously, the other party was obviously intentional.
“??”
(ー`′ー)
"That bald grandpa, can you get out of here now?"
(??????)
"I want to go in and see if there is anything fun inside!"
??(′??)???
As he said that, Annie, who was not going to talk to the other party, planned to walk forward and go around the other party.
"sure."
"but……"
"There is a temple inside, an extremely sacred place, but nothing fun."
Shaking his head, Old Man Wu just took a step back, but he stood in front of Annie and still had no intention of taking the initiative to move out of the way.
"How do you know?"
(??へ??╬)
Annie said that it was fun or not, and she would only know if she went in. She could not come here to meddle in other people's business for her.
"hehe."
"I'm the bishop here, of course I know."
The old man said with a smile, not caring about Anne's impatient and angry expression at all.
"By the way!"
"Little girl, I heard it just now. You seemed to have said something you shouldn't say to the statue, right?"
"Can you tell me?"
"you……"
"Why did you have that kind of thought?"
At this time, the old man bent down, showed a dry smiley face in Zou Cheng and asked tentatively.
"ah?"
=????('ヮ'=????)
"That's it?!"
(⊙o⊙*)
Annie was stunned for a moment, and then she soon came back to her senses.
She didn't expect that the other party came to find her because of that kind of thing, and she thought it was because of something else!
"Bald Grandpa, are you too scrupulous?"
=????(???*)
"They just talk casually."
(??ω????‖)?
"And, it was just a statue, and there was nothing great about it. Can't you tell me about it?"
(???.???)??????
Then, Anne, who was outspoken and without any scruples, said of course her own opinions and thoughts directly.
As for whether there is any offense to the gods, what does it have to do with her? Anyway, she is not familiar with the goddess of light, so what can she do if she says a few words to each other?
“Um…”
"That's right."
Although he said that, judging from the expression that the old man in front of him held back, he certainly didn't think so in his heart, and he definitely didn't agree with Anne's point of view.
"But……"
"Here, it is not just a statue of god, but also represents the great and omnipotent goddess Lucilis herself."
"What you said just now..."
"If the goddess heard him, he would be angry."
"Do you think that's OK?"
But there is no way. No matter how disagree, the old man can only try to guide the tone that children can understand, understand and acceptably.
"If you are angry, just be angry!"
(ˉ▽￣￞］)Tsk~~
"What can it do to others?"
?(￣??)???
Anne curled her lips indifferently and made a funny move.
"you!!"
Now, the old bishop couldn't help but feel a little angry and couldn't say a word for a long time.
He didn't expect that the little girl in front of him would be so naughty, and that she would make such a ruthless and rude word in front of him, the archbishop, in this extremely sacred place.
However, he had no good idea.
After all, the other party was just an ignorant little girl. He could not directly ask the Templars to subdue him and throw him out like he was dealing with the pagans who came to make trouble.
"Okay!"
ε=(′ο｀*))) Alas
Seeing that the other party looked pitiful, and the other party was the bishop here, his head was bald and looked very pitiful, so Annie didn't intend to say more, so as not to make the other party really angry.
"It's OK if people don't say it?"
(?~?)
So she had to change her mind and reluctantly say something soft.
“…”
The old man's face looked a little better.
Of course, it was just a little bit, because, he could see that Anne's expression was still dissatisfied, so he was not very satisfied with this attitude.
"Really!"
(′～`●)
"It's just a stone statue, and it can't speak. So what's wrong with it talking about it? Can it jump out and bite people?"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
However, before the bald bishop had thought about how to scold or guide him, Anne started talking casually and glared at the huge statue again without being angry.
"you!!"
At this moment, the old man was so angry that he was blown away and glared at him. At the same time, his hands began to tremble slightly, as if he was almost rolling his eyes and venting his breath.
At this time!
“Huh?!”
!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ
Anne suddenly exclaimed, then turned her head at an extremely fast speed and looked at the statue.
"No way?"
(lll￢▽￢)
"I'm really heard?"
???(＿＿*)??
In fact, in the eyes of ordinary people, the statue of the god still did not change at this time.
However, Anne was not an ordinary person. Although the other party's behavior was very secretive, she still discovered: at this time, a faint white light was surrounding the huge statue. At the same time, she also discovered that the slightly shiny eyes of the statue seemed to be secretly staring at her intentionally or unintentionally?
"What to see?"
|???ω??)??
"You're not really stingy enough to jump out and bite people, right?"
=????(????????)!
"Tell you, they are not afraid of you!"
Q(`⌒′Q)
Anne responded to the statue of the god who was peeping her.
Of course, Anne did not say the above words directly in front of the old man. She just responded back to the statue of the god who was peeping and staring at her through the form of thoughts.
In the eyes of others, she just looked back at the statue with curiosity, without any outrageous actions or words.
‘…’
Soon, I don’t know if Anne’s words came into effect, and the white light shrouded on the statue quickly faded away again and until it disappeared completely.
"you!"
"Where is your family?"
It was not until this time that the old man in front of him seemed to have recovered.
From beginning to end, he did not notice any abnormalities in the statue, but just looked around angrily.
“Where are they?”
"I want to talk to them!"
Since the little girl is unable to reason with her, the bishop of course intends to find the other party’s parents.
Then……
He might add fuel to the fire and accuse the little girl in front of him of her disrespect for the goddess just now. Then, it is best to signal the other party’s parents to guide or teach them a lesson after they go back, such as hitting the other party’s butt so that they can remember it deeply?
Perhaps, only in this way can we guide the lost lamb in front of us to the right path?
"family?"
(???.???)??????
"But they won't tell you where they are!"
(????-)?
Annie knew what the other person meant and made a big grimace for him.
Moreover, she would not say that her family, her mysterious warlock, Gregory Hastad's father and the shadow witch Amore's mother were living happily in the Voodoo Land, so she would not care about her affairs!
Furthermore, the Voodoo Land is far away from here, and the boring idea of ​​the other party's attempt to complain will definitely never be realized.
"goodbye!"
(*?′?`?)
"Ahhh!"
-=????=?????(?)?
After saying that, and once again grimaced the other party, Annie skillfully accelerated over the other party and followed the crowd into the temple.
"You, you..."
Behind him, the bald old man wearing a white bishop's robe, whose fingers were so angry that he stretched out his outstretched, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
