Chapter 7 Sir, times have changed now(1/2)

When Wang Changle entered the church and walked along the aisle to the outside of the large prayer hall, he suddenly found that this place was different from the churches he had seen before.

This difference has nothing to do with the architectural style, but comes from the layout planning of the space.

There are no high-hanging rose windows or hanging crystal lamps. Deep darkness has become the main color of this space. Behind the arched altar, the solemn door is embedded in the opposite wall.

Dozens of holes penetrate the inside and outside, drawing together soft and gentle light, and the impression from the inside out falls to the ground.

This spatial layout of light and darkness always makes people feel that when they are stuck in endless darkness, as long as they are willing to raise their heads and move forward, they will be able to get the illusion of salvation under the night moon, which makes people naturally yearn for it.

Stepping into the prayer room, I saw some old white bishops preaching in a low and gentle voice, echoing the silent prayers of many believers with their hands folded.

Wang Changle met the bishop's gaze and quickly tapped his chest four times to outline the symbol of the crimson moon, then found an inconspicuous corner and sat down.

Under the slight frown of the white bishop, he quietly listened to the new round of mass.

"They were naked, without food or clothing, and without shelter from the cold."

"They were soaked by the heavy rain and had no shelter, so they clung to the rock."

"But the night did not give up on them, giving them care and protecting their growth."

....

The sound echoed in the prayer room, and the panic in the room was immediately contained.

With his hands clasped together, Wang Changle, with a slight movement of his mind, blocked out the 'comfort' and 'hint' contained in his voice, and waited quietly.

Wang Changle did not let go of his devout prayer posture until the bishop ended the mass ceremony and greeted people who had calmed down their panic one by one, and entered the confession room next to him.

Half an hour passed in a hurry, and after the last woman left the prayer room with peace of mind, the bishop also arrived in front of Wang Changle.

"Goddess above, sir, tonight's mass has ended."

"You said that the goddess will take care of her believers and give them the protection they deserve. Does this favor depend on the rich or the poor or the region?"

After hearing this, Wang Changle immediately put down his prayer gesture and looked at the statue of the goddess sincerely, as if he didn't see the gradually extinguishing candles in all directions and the darkness that was slowly pouring in outside the arch.

"The benevolent goddess will protect all apostles who believe in her, but she will never be soft on those who pretend to be."

The bishop's deep voice echoed in the prayer room, but his voice was no longer gentle, but full of solemnity, and even the spiritual power mixed in his words became more 'intimidating' and 'oppressive'.

"Praising the mercy of the goddess, believers who have been wandering for a long time want to return to the embrace of the goddess."

Ignoring the angry bishop and the secretly hostile Wang Changle, he took out the 'Seal of the Moon'. The dim light of the moon was particularly dazzling in the dim hall.

In just a moment, although there were still doubts in the eyes of the old white bishop, his face softened, and the darkness surging in the hall disappeared instantly, leaving only a cold-faced man in a black windbreaker, hanging from his waist.

The dagger in the room slowly closed,

After the two exchanged glances with each other, they also understood the abnormality and gathered together again.

This 'Seal of the Moon' can only be held by a small number of people who were favored by the goddess of the night when the missionary point was opened, and no one has used it for many years now.

At this time, the silent white bishop looked at the smile on the face and realized that his burst of mental power failed to have any impact on Wang Changle, and he couldn't help but frown.

"Have you become an extraordinary person?"

"Yes, I was lucky enough to become an Beyonder in Silveras County before, and I was recently promoted to a Sequence 7 Psychological Master."

Wang Changle nodded when he heard this. Long before he came to the Church of the Night Goddess, he had made up a good excuse for his abilities and origins.

Of course, with the abilities he currently possesses, he can be said to be a Sequence 4 ancient alchemist, or a Sequence 6 Bishop Rose.

However, the capabilities of these two channels have the shadow of other churches. In this sensitive period, it is extremely easy to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

The audience path is different. The medium and low-sequence potion formulas of this path are widely circulated. They will not arouse suspicion from others and can well demonstrate their abilities.

Even if Wang Changle 'accidentally' revealed his strength beyond what a Sequence 7 psychologist should have, it could still be said to be an explosion of psychic energy, and there wouldn't be much misunderstanding.

Even the current body evolved from the template of a traveling businessman he specifically sought out when he was resting in the Windy City, and all the information was 'compliant'.

"Sir, why did you come to Tingen City? Although Silveras County is in the far west of Loon, it is not far from Dixi County or Backlund."

At this moment, the man in the black trench coat who had already walked outside the arch came back with a frown on his face, lazily leaning against the wall, but his body was in a tense and explosive state at any time.

Those eagle-like eyes were staring at Wang Changle for a moment, with a hint of teasing and ridicule in his tone.

"If you really just want to join the Church of the Night Goddess, I think those two places are closer, right?"

"If it had been two years earlier, I would have definitely chosen Dixi County. You know, it has the most beautiful seaside. But the opening of sea lanes in recent years has destroyed that beauty. I don't want to deal with the uncivilized indigenous people of the Southern Continent every day.

.”

With a smile on his face, Wang Changle spread his hands as he spoke, looking like he had a headache but was helpless.

With his humorous charm slowly revealed, he leaned lazily on the bench, looked up at the curved dome, paused and said.

"As for Backlund... I think you two have heard about what happened last night. I'm still young, and I don't want to die in an unprovoked explosion. Boom, that would be terrible. The location of Tingen City

Although it's a little far away, this is a 'city of universities' and knowledge is priceless."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Okay, okay, your eloquence and logic have convinced me, so for the priceless knowledge, you are welcome to join, you can call me Vion Smith,

Or Mr. Smith."

Vian clapped his hands as he spoke. He didn't see any flaws and nodded, with a faint, but not gentle smile on his stern face.

"Well, my Goddess, Mr. Smith, you can call me Odd. I don't need an 'entry trial'."

Wang Changle made gestures on his chest. Compared to this so-called show of goodwill, he was more willing to believe Paradise's prompts.

As long as there is no reminder to join the Church of the Night Goddess, everything is just a blank check.

"May the Feiyue be with you. You have to ask our Bishop Edward about this."

"Well, Odd, your situation is rather special. The test of the candidate church is not suitable for you, but there are still the rules that should be followed."

At Vion's suggestion, old Edward just coughed slightly and put the Seal of the Moon under his sleeve.

After pondering for a while, he glanced at Weiang vaguely, and then continued.

"In this way, Vian's night patrol task today will be completed by you. This is not a difficult task for you, right?"

"Please feel free to leave it to me, respected Bishop Edward."

[Tip: You have triggered the camp mission ‘Night Watch’, yes/no accept it.]

Faction mission: night watch

Difficulty level: LV 18

Mission introduction: Affected by the Backlund incident, Tingen City has instituted a ‘curfew’ and is managed by the Church of the Goddess of the Night.

Mission information: In the urban area of ​​Tingen City, patrol from 10 o'clock at night to 8 o'clock in the morning.

Mission time limit: 10 hours.

Mission reward: Join the Church of the Goddess of Night and start the church’s merits.

Mission penalty: The reputation of the Church of the Goddess of the Night is reduced by 2000 points (solidified).

....

After Wang Changle checked the camp mission, his hanging heart suddenly fell to the ground. After agreeing, he and Wei Ang headed out the door.

It wasn't until a while later that Vion came back from the door. Looking at Edward's probing eyes, he shook his head, took out his dagger and started whittling wood by himself.

"I didn't find anything unusual here, but maybe you are a little too sensitive."

"Since you didn't find it, let the person behind Chanis' door take a look and see if there is anything wrong with the Moon Seal."

After Edward finished speaking, he swung his sleeves and walked towards Vion who entered the confessional room. He glanced again and stood up in shock.

"Aren't you asking me why I am so sensitive? Someone also found the 'Seal of the Moon' in the room of the missing alternate bishop, Inszanger Will."

.....

Under the moonlight at night, the Gothic church and the top bell tower.

Wang Changle was sitting with his eyes closed, near the edge of the clock tower, overlooking the street scene of Tingen under the night sky, holding a piece of paper in his hand.

In other words, it is a sketch of the neighborhoods in Tingen City, as well as instructions for inspection periods.

However, Wang Changle's attention is not focused on this at all now. After entering the 'super-sensory' state, his perception has fully covered the entire steeple church.

He had long known about the little speculation between Edward and Vian, and naturally he had heard the conversation just now.

But just when he used his spiritual power to enter the confession room, followed the secret passage to extend it, and was about to touch the stone door, a strong sense of danger suddenly surged up.

Wang Changle almost subconsciously exited the 'super-sensory' mode. He had only experienced that inexplicable but trembling feeling from those 'unspeakables'.

Thinking of something, he looked at the mysterious church below him in the dark night. After touching his chest with lingering fear, he clenched the note in his hand and gave up the idea of ​​in-depth exploration in an instant.

Even if this camp's mission failed, the loss to Wang Changle would not be great. The worst he could do was change his identity and join another church.

Thinking of this, Wang Changle looked at the streets with only a few lights still on, and his feet fell to the ground.

After lighting the dark kerosene lamp, he began to inspect Tingen City under the cold moonlight.

It is said that he is inspecting Tingen City, but in fact, the only areas that Wang Changle really needs to inspect are the West District, North District and Jinwutong District, which belong to the "Night Goddess Church".

Other areas are taken care of by the 'Punishers' of the 'Lord of Storms' Church, and the 'Mechanical Heart' of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery in the outskirts.

Wang Changle walked on the stone slabs from the "Crazy Heart Bar" on Iron Cross Street to Daffodil Street, and then from Champagne Avenue to the birthday party of Sarah, the "singer" in Zotte Street.
