Chapter 98 The Arrival
Just as everyone was excited and fantasized that the messenger of God came from the sky with the glorious petals and holy music, a light suddenly flashed in the sky.
It seemed that the stars hidden into the sky suddenly lit up in the daytime, just a flash, but now most of them are paying attention to the sky, so this flash quickly attracted the attention of many people. With the eyes of these people, more people raised their heads and looked at the sky.
A meteor suddenly appeared from the depths of the sky with flames. What is this? A comet? Didn't you say that there was a divine messenger? How can there be such a bad omen as a comet? For a moment, everyone looked at the sky.
The comet fell from the sky without stopping. At first, it was just an inconspicuous flash in the depths of the sky, and then it became a small flash, but soon the small dot became a nail-sized fireball. The small fireball became bigger and bigger in the eyes of everyone, and soon became the size of a table tennis ball, and then It's the size of the basketball, getting bigger and bigger, with a roar, which is getting bigger and bigger in the eyes of everyone.
Suddenly, an exclamation sounded among the knights. A timid knight turned his head and ran away, which was quite fast, because now everyone can see that this comet fell from the sky above his head, and I'm afraid it would fall on everyone's head.
But it's not too late to run at this time? And more people were stunned by the comet that suddenly appeared from the air and fell from the top of their heads. The knights had never seen such a scene. Many people even their legs were weak. They wanted to run, but they also had to move.
Just as the comet fell rapidly and was about to hit everyone in front of everyone, the head of the comet suddenly spewed out flames in the opposite direction. The speed of the whole comet's fall suddenly stopped, suspended and stagnated in the air for a second, slightly changed the angle, and then fell diagonally again under the action of gravity, fiercely Hit the earth, and with a loud bang, the whole earth began to tremble.
A comet fell in the sky, and the comet fell in front of everyone, smashing a deep pit not far in front of them. At this time, even the stupidest person knew that the divine messenger came from the sky.
It's just that this way is a little special. The divine messenger does not seem to fly down from the sky lightly, but seems to fall from the sky.
Of course, in this situation, there are only a small number of people who can have this idea in their minds. This idea just flashes in their minds, and then they continue to fall into the incomparable shock. A comet fell from overhead with flames, and then hit them in front of them. This shocking way of appearance was a little too avant-garde for the indigenous people living in the Middle Ages. They were stunned by this terrible scene.
People here, whether they are knights, popes, or cardinals, high-level secretaries, all of them dare not move, half-turned their heads up and looked at the hill bag. When the earth stopped shaking and the smoke gradually dissipated, they saw the sound of steam. The metal comet's shell unfolded in the steam and smoke like blooming flowers. With the footsteps with the impact of steel, the huge figure slowly emerged from the smoke.
From the white steam and smoke, a giant who can only look up came out. He is more than two meters tall. No, maybe more than three meters. Is his grandmother still a human? Is it the legendary Titan? Anyway, this humanoid creature is wearing thick black armor that no one has ever seen before. On the black armor, there are all kinds of gorgeous decorations that make the knights feel dazzling. What makes people's heart tremble is that there are ferocious golden skull decorations on the knees, elbows, chest and abdomen of the armor. Of course, the smoke dissipates. When we saw the giant's face clearly, there was only a neat inhalation sound in the air.
What's the face there? This feared giant has a skeleton face, which looks like a skeleton in a gorgeous heavy armor.
"To... what kind of monster is it?"
"Teaching, Your Excellency, is this the angel you are talking about? No, it's not very similar."
"Yes, is there a mistake there?"
The knights of the Holy Shield Knights had already put their hands on the hilt of the sword, but for a while they did not have the courage to draw their sword at this terrible creature. With such a huge figure, who can be more powerful than this terrible skeleton creature? With such a strong armor, how can his sword hurt him? What's more, who in this world dares to disrespect Van Seguin? Even the king's crown must be granted by the Pope. The holy shield knights who guarded Van Segang have not fought with real guns for a long time, and they have long lost the courage of soldiers.
"What's the matter?" The skeleton-faced giant said, "Why is it all this expression? I thought they would welcome us."
What are you welcome? We don't welcome you. Are you still a saint? You are the messenger of hell! The Pope shouted in his heart that we welcome the messengers and angels. There must be a mistake there. There must be a mistake in the first person who can't figure out the southeast and northwest and take the wrong way. Well, it must be. In a word, this product is not a holy envoy, and this goods is not a holy envoy.
Just as the Pope was thinking, the skeleton face opened his mouth, but her voice seemed to be a little unhappy: "I'm from the starry sky and the messenger of the Holy Emperor. Why do you have such an expression?"
Shit, this product is really a holy envoy! How is that possible?
The Pope is about to collapse.
From behind the skeleton giant, a short man came out. Of course, the short figure is also relative to the giant. In fact, the short man who came out is normal in height.
The dwarf said easily, "I told you that you would scare them like this."
"This is what I wear most formally," the skeleton face must be in a bad mood: "I'm scared, no, I'm scared by what, my height or size? It can't be a mask."
The dwarf shrugged his shoulders and said carelessly, "You negotiate with them. I'll walk around first." Then the man shook his cloak, wrapped his body in his inconspicuous cloak, and disappeared in full view of the public. Like the invisible wind, it disappeared into the air under the eyes of so many people.
What kind of envoy is it? This is obviously a ghost! Yes, ghost! It's the soul! That short man is the soul!
Before everyone recovered from the shock of the sudden disappearance of the dwarf, the skull face continued to speak in a cold voice: "Wait, but I'm afraid because of my face?"
Some knights swallowed their saliva, some knights quietly retreated, some knights leaned closer to the Pope, and more knights and civilian personnel nodded like chickens pecking rice.
Even in broad daylight, this skull face is so scary.
"What a fool!" As the skull face said, he took off his skull face, revealing a young human face, "I'm Martin. Luther, you can call me Pastor Martin, this skull face is just a mask. Skulls represent the pure sanctity of human beings. Don't you know?
The answer to Pastor Martin was a silence.
Pastor Martin sighed. Although he had seen a similar situation from books before, he did not expect that he would encounter it.
The universe is so vast that different worlds have different ecological environments, and human lifestyles are also different. Due to different living habits, their needs for the divine emperor are also very different. Many preachers will not preach in full accordance with the code and sacred teachings of the Holy See when spreading the teachings of the Emperor. They will take some temporary methods to preach and make their own understanding and changes to the teachings. Although people also believe in the divine emperor on some remote planets, it is very different from the teachings of the imperial state religion.
For others, this is just a small thing, just like early prayer should be before or after meals. It doesn't matter. In the same way, whether the skull pattern symbolizes sacred human beings or death and killing, there is no point in dispute for those who do not believe in the emperor. Just say whatever you say. But for believers, this is an extremely important thing.
Some primitive religions are extremely tolerant and even casual. However, a mature religion has very complicated and strict regulations and dogma. In the Middle Ages, Christianity has a set of strict requirements for props for rituals, the size of cups for rituals, the style, the priest's clothing, prayers of prayer, the answers of believers, etc. After a set of rituals is completed, it is necessary to There are no fewer rules to pay attention to than to operate dangerous goods in the laboratory. In this world, the teachings of the Royal State Church are even more complicated and harsh.
Li didn't care about these things, so he put on an optical cloak and disappeared in front of everyone, but Pastor Martin couldn't help but care. He decided to do his best to put the religion here on the right track.
"Your understanding of the teachings of the emperor does not seem to be very correct," Pastor Martin shook his head and said, "But it doesn't matter. Let's talk about religion later. Now let's introduce each other first. Who is the bishop here? Well, that's the Pope of this world.
The Pope in a golden robe stood up tremblingly, "It's down."
"Pope George III," Pastor Martin nodded. "We have had a good communication between meetings. This is the first formal meeting. It's nice to meet you."
"It's also an honor to see the superior." Pope George III recovered a little. He said, "Then please follow me first. After all, this is a wild place, not a place to talk. We have already prepared a place for the superior to wash and rest. Please go this way."
