Chapter Thirteen The Original Story
Because of the small number of believers, the clergy in the Reiki Temple is usually relatively leisurely. Sometimes believers who sign up for the awakening ceremony do not see one for ten days and half a month, so the auditorium of the temple is basically half closed. Except for someone coming to clean every three days, the temple staff will not step into here casually.
Three days ago, after many days, the Temple of Reggie finally welcomed the believers who signed up for the awakening ceremony again. This believer was a new face. Like Alex, the other party successfully transformed into a divine favor during the first ceremony. After the believer was so excited that he danced and danced, the old priest who was responsible for presiding the ceremony walked to a corner of the ritual magic circle with a serious expression. He squatted down and carefully examined the stone slabs on the ground immediately changed his face. After a moment, he summoned all the priests of the temple to the auditorium.
The old priest has been presiding for the awakening ceremony for twenty years, and any deviation in the ritual magic circle cannot be concealed by his perception. When he presided over the ritual magic circle just now, he keenly realized that a certain node in the operation of the ritual magic circle was slow. This situation was extremely rare. After the old priest checked, he found that the stone slab of the ritual magic circle was tampered with!
“Who is responsible for cleaning the auditorium these days?”
After the priests gathered in confusion, the old priest immediately asked a question with a harsh expression.
"It's me! Baier's priest, the entire Frost Moon (December) was responsible for cleaning the auditorium." A young priest raised his hand tremblingly and said.
"Brans!" The old priest recognized the young priest at a glance. "Have you ever turned the slabs on the floor of the ceremony while cleaning the auditorium?"
"Report to the Lord of the Priest, I am extremely careful every time I clean the auditorium, and I am afraid that it will disturb my master, so I dare not move the auditorium things at will." Brans said quickly.
The old priest stared at Brans for a long time, and then turned his gaze to others after confirming that he had no sign of lying.
"Who has stepped into the auditorium these days except Brans?!" the old priest said in a stern tone. "Everyone must give me honest explanations, otherwise don't blame me for punishing you for blasphemy!"
"Bayer Priest...I don't..."
"Bayer's Priest..."
For a moment, all the priests said in panic that they had never stepped into the auditorium these days.
"Quiet!"
As the priests defended themselves in a verbal manner, the old priest immediately stopped their noise with great anger.
"I regret to tell you that there was a serious blasphemy incident in the auditorium. Someone dared to invade God's realm in order to obtain the mystery of the awakening ceremony! Faced with such a crazy behavior, as the Lord's Lamb, we must not have any tolerance!" The old priest took a deep breath and explained the reason, but in the end he still couldn't help but roared out. "Check for me! Be sure to find out for me, who has sneaked into the auditorium these days!"
With the order of the old priest, the entire Reiki Temple fell into turmoil, and basically everyone in the temple was subjected to strict interrogation and interrogation. At the same time, this matter was accidentally spread, resulting in a small number of people knowing about the changes in Reiki Temple.
When Alex followed the seniors of the Gods and the Demon-Sealing Tower and returned from the Demon-Sealing Tower, they specially held a lively celebration dinner. As a newcomer, Alex was drunk and fell directly on the table in the tavern. He woke up from the urination in the second half of the night. At this time, there were already people lying in the tavern, leaving only a few seniors of the Gods and the owner of the tavern who were still not drunk chatting with the owner of the tavern at the bar.
After returning from the toilet, Alex, who was dry and sleepy, asked for a glass of juice to quench his thirst, and then participated in the chats of his seniors with a thick face, but most of the time he was an audience and rarely spoke.
As the topics changed, the owner of the tavern suddenly mentioned what happened in the Reggie Temple recently. Alex, who was in a drowsy state, woke up instantly after hearing this. He stared at him with a wide open eyes, his whole body was covered in cold sweat, and his mind was in a mess. When a senior joked that he, the believer of Reggie, knew the inside story, Alex stammered and couldn't speak. Fortunately, the senior didn't take it seriously, and turned around and changed the topic.
Alex, who was guilty, could no longer calm down. After he found an excuse to leave, he ran all the way to Chen An's residence as soon as he left the tavern.
...
"That's how things go."
After Alex was anxiously explaining the whole story, Chen An, who had changed his clothes, was packing up his property for escape while forcing himself to calmly think about the sudden emergency situation in front of him.
1. According to Alex, although the temple noticed the strangeness of the auditorium stone slabs and was even accused of being a serious blasphemy incident, the temple is still in the self-inspection stage and has not yet listed them as the object of suspicion. However, this is undoubtedly a matter of time. Therefore, before the disaster comes, Chen An, the initiator, must run away quickly.
2. Escape requires planning. How to avoid the pursuit of the temple is the top priority. The problem is that with the power of the temple in Osgard, even if he escapes to the deserted mountains and forests, he may be tracked down by professional hunters. There is no plastic surgery in this world. He has no ability to have the human skin mask in the novel, even if it exists. Judging from the appeal situation, his chance of being caught is as high as 80%! The remaining 20% is the chance of an accidental death on the way to escape.
3. Normal escape is not feasible. Based on his current IQ, he came to a conclusion that if he wants to successfully escape the pursuit of the temple, he must escape to a place that is difficult for the temple to control. This place is obvious, the Demon-Closing Tower that suppresses the gaps in the abyss! The problem is that the danger of the Demon-Closing Tower is no less than that of other places.
4. Alex is innocent. The temple may very well determine that he is a blasphemous accomplice. If it weren't for Chen An's impulsive and willful act, he and Alex would definitely not have any problems. But the temple with great magical powers noticed something strange, which led to Chen An implicating Alex, who had originally had an unlimited future. This really made Chen An feel extremely guilty, so he had to take Alex out of this matter!
"Alex! It's all my fault! I've hurt you!" Chen An hugged his head in discomfort and sat on the edge of the bed and said in pain.
"An! Nothing is useful now! Let's run away quickly!" Alex shouted irritably.
