Chapter 14 The Awakening of the Holy Spirit
The sun gently shone on the earth, swarms of white pigeons flew over the silver-white square, and the water column rushed high into the sky from the fountain and scattered. In this resting day, even the falling splashes were happy.
This is a spring. Not long ago, the empire just passed its fortieth millennium. The imperial capital has just entered a grand parade and carnival. The atmosphere of carnival has gradually faded, but the taste of joy seems to remain in the air.
Nobles from all over the universe participated in this grand ceremony, and after the celebration, it was the free time for the nobles. Some of them seized the opportunity to act for the future and their own interests in various departments of the imperial capital; some were devout believers in the Great Hall. Pray sincerely, sing the hymn, and cry with excitement; while more nobles just enjoy it. After all, there are not many opportunities for these nobles distributed in all corners of the galaxy to come to the earth. At this time, they swim freely in the great birthplace of mankind and the heart of the whole empire.
The earth is not only the center of imperial politics, but also the center of religion. On the earth, there is the Council of Cardinals of the Holy See, which is recognized as the core of religion in the hearts of believers. Although there is an auxiliary council of the Holy See on the 7 star of Ophelia, a religious institution that is equivalent to the Council of Cardinals of the Holy See, It is the inertia of thousands of years that still makes people think that the earth is the core of religion in the true sense.
What's more, my emperor is also on the earth.
So whether they are firm believers or those who are not so firm, most of them will visit those magnificent religious buildings after coming to the earth.
Those cathedrals that are large enough to allow the Starship to shuttle through are so huge that they are simply like a residence built for the legendary giant. Just looking at it from a distance makes people feel small. Above the cathedral are a variety of small tower-style buildings, various vertical hero sculptures decorate the top of the church, those embossed murals full of streets and alleys, and those ancient buildings with the vicissitudes of time, all of which are not to be missed on the earth.
Of course, there is also the Holy Spirit Church of the Empire.
Even the rotten nobles in the empire are willing to take their children or descendants to visit the Holy Spirit Church. This is a good place to shape the correct personal outlook. Some colleges of the empire even regularly organize students to visit here and let the children listen to the servants of the church tell about those heroes. Traces tell the magical stories left by those legendary times. The outer hall of the Holy Spirit Church is a black and charming Gothic building. The walls outside the church are engraved with scenes of heroes fighting for the empire. Tourists enter the Holy Spirit Church in an orderly manner under the guidance of the guide. Whenever they arrive at an attraction, there will be servants for them. Explain the stories of the most wonderful heroes and the most fierce battles.
From Robert. Li was cursed and fell down on the battlefield. Up to now, the Milky Way has spent nine thousand years. During these nine thousand years, the empire has experienced one storm after another under the protection of the emperor. There was a dark day when the empire's building was crumbling, but after all, the empire still did not fall in the wind and rain. The empire has survived all kinds of crises, and now it has entered a relatively easing period. The political situation within the empire is relatively stable, and the national strength has gradually recovered. And there is no large-scale foreign war for the time being. The imperial people living at this time are undoubtedly happy. They enjoy hard-won peace and happiness.
Today's Imperial Holy Spirit Hall has long been not only a place to store the body of the spirits. The ancient church where the hero's body is stored is the inner hall. Generally speaking, visitors are not allowed to enter. Outside the inner hall, the majestic and beautiful outer hall has been rebuilt. The function is to provide people to visit.
Suddenly, a wonderful bell sounded in this holy church full of tourists. The bell was so powerful and ancient that the bell was not amplified by any electronic device, but it easily reached everyone's ears.
Most of the tourists were stunned. They began to look for the source of the bell, while the servants in charge of the explanation looked blank. They also didn't know where the bell was ringing.
In shock and confusion, the servants suddenly saw the high priest running out of the room. At this moment, the high priest in charge of foreign affairs completely ignored his own image. He was still wearing a nightgown, and the gorgeously decorated crown was clamped under his armpit. He didn't even wear shoes, so he was barefoot. He ran out of the priest's rest area, passed through the scenic spot area with many tourists, and ran towards the inner hall under the stunned eyes of everyone.
At this time, the inner hall of the Holy Spirit Church was also in chaos. Some of the priests were panicked, and some blushed with excitement. Even the bishop in charge of the Holy Spirit Church couldn't help showing an excited look.
The reason why these clergy are like this is because they all know the meaning of the bell.
What is the "bell of awakening" is ringed in the Holy Spirit Hall. Every time this bell is rang, it means the return of a Holy Spirit. For various reasons, after those heroes who once dominated the world entered the coffin of the Holy Spirit Church, it is extremely difficult to go out again. It is not too much to die together. No. In the nearly 9,000-year history, the bell of the Holy Spirit Hall has only been runn three times, and every time the bell rings, it represents a legendary resurrection or a legendary complete death.
At this time, the archbishop in charge of the Holy Spirit Church is kneeling in a special auditorium. The bishop's mouth is constantly chanting prayers. He sincerely praises the emperor and praises the miracle that has happened again. It is also a rare blessing for the bishop to hear the "Awakening Bell" during his tenure.
The ancient machinery made a creaking sound. In a short time, a silver coffin was transported to this special auditorium by the robotic arm. The protagonist, who completed the prayer, took off an old golden key on his neck and handed the gold key to a mechanical servant beside him. The mechanical servant bowed down respectfully, took the golden key with both hands, walked to the silver coffin, and opened the coffin with his most gentle movements.
There was a handsome teenager lying in the coffin. He looked so young, as if he were 18 years old, but when he opened his eyes, the bishop saw the deep vicissitudes and fatigue in his eyes.
"I am the bishop of the Church of the Holy Spirit, East. I am your servant during your sleep. I welcome your return." The bishop bowed and said, "Can I have the honor to know your name?"
"Well," the teenager sat up from the silver coffin, shook his head in pain, then opened his mouth and said a name in a slightly hoarse voice and unskilled ancient Gothic: "Robert. Li."
A priest behind the protagonist immediately put a tick on a single eye, which was normal during the awakening process.
Waking up from a deep sleep is naturally not the original Robert. Li, but Li after crossing, but from the moment his mentor disappeared, Li no longer exists. Now there is only Li in the world who inherits Robert's name. He vowed to live up to this honor.
And now, it's just the beginning, the first step, Robert. Li came out of the silver coffin clumsily and took the first step with one foot on the cold and smooth floor making a "pop" sound. A servant hurried to Li and tried to help him, but he was pushed away without mercy.
"I'm Robert, the melee mentor of the dark crow. I don't need help from others." Robert. Li said, "Get out of the way. No matter what, I don't need someone to help me walk."
