Path of Light.

Chapter 63 64. Teaching
On Monday morning, before Roy had time to rejoice, "Finally passed the classroom assessment of Instructor Nora, and the elementary martial arts training has finally caught up with the current progress..." He heard a bad news in the modern history of elves class.

Princess Ophelia divided two hundred students into twenty discussion groups.

Forty historical events were assigned to the students, which means that each group should focus on studying two historical events, and then introduce the overview of the entire historical event on stage as a teacher.

This kind of in-depth study does not mean that the discussion group only needs to clarify the entire historical event, but also needs to further dig into the subsequent impact of historical events and so on.

What troubled Roy the most was that the other members of their group turned out to be a group of silver moon elf nobles.

It's not that his team members are so bad, on the contrary, the members of his team are all very good, they have received a good education before entering the Elven Academy, and their knowledge is far more profound than Roy's.

Roy didn't have any common language with these young silver moon elf nobles. After becoming a member of the same group, there was nothing to talk about except for an awkward greeting at first.

Roy's discussion group was No.16 group, and the next four groups were almost all members of the half-blood elves.

Roy hoped that he could be assigned to any of the next four groups, but this time the grouping was arranged by Princess Ophelia. It was impossible for him to go to Teacher Ophelia to change the group without a reasonable reason. .

The first topic discussed by group No.16 is: the Renaissance era of the Silver Moon Dynasty from 671 to 787.

The second topic is: In 1218, the Xia Yinyue Kingdom and the Naga Sea Clan's endless sea battle of Queen Evani Islands.

Roy had never even heard of these two discussion topics.

Next, I am afraid that we must go to the library to check some relevant materials and books. I am afraid that not only the two-page overview in the textbook will not satisfy Teacher Ophelia, but even the other members of the group will feel that he is Roy. It's just a bastard.

Thinking of taking time to go to the library to look up information, Roy also had a headache. He had almost a full week of schedule, and it was really troublesome to find time to go to the library.

Later, Roy thought of the librarian Windsor, the poor woman who didn't turn into a wraith until she was buried in the cemetery.

On the way back to the temple, is Roy hesitating to go to the library?

……

After rushing from the Elf Academy to the Temple of Liberty in a daze, Roy jumped off the long carriage.

Recently, Roy may have gotten used to riding in a carriage, which made Roy more and more lazy. Every time he came out of the house or the academy, he couldn't help but glance at the long carriage on the side of the road.

Today is the day when believers in the Temple of Liberty gather. Roy got out of the carriage and ran all the way to the temple.

Abbott was standing at the gate to receive believers who came from all over the place. When he saw Roy, he quickly beckoned him to squeeze in against the wall, and then entered the vestibule of the temple from behind Abbott.

Many believers gathered under the Statue of Liberty in the courtyard, and everyone stood by the pool to pray to the statue.

Although there is no choir in Monday's assembly, there will be many believers who come to pray.

Roy quickly walked around from behind them to the backyard, changed into the apprentice priest's robes, and hurried to the main hall.

During these two rallies, Roy has been helping in the side hall...

Walking into the main hall, I saw Priest Reed wearing a robe standing under the Statue of Liberty, explaining prayers to believers sitting on benches in the main hall, and Jasper standing beside Priest Reed beside.

Many believers have already sat in the main hall, and everyone is quietly listening to Priest Reed's narration...

Seeing Jasper pointing to the side hall calmly, Roy arranged to help him in the side hall.

Roy immediately walked to the side hall.

Priest Theodore was standing behind the high platform, his hands were clasped in front of him, his eyes were half closed, and the expression on his face was very solemn.

There is a silver plate on the high platform, and the half pot of holy water inside has a strong smell.

Roy came to the holy water pool, and sure enough, the water in the pool also contained a faint sacred breath.

If you can calm down and look carefully at the water surface of the holy water pool, you will find that even the water surface is pale gold.

Under normal circumstances, holy light is insoluble in water, and it can make holy light and water merge into one. I don't know how the three priests in the temple did it.

Roy's task is to scoop up a spoonful of holy water for each believer,
At this time, the voice of believers reading prayers aloud came from the main hall, and Priest Roy and Ocedo also prayed with everyone.

Priest Theodore has been very busy recently, and the last time I saw him was the day after Jasper was injured.

To Roy's surprise, Priest Andison didn't even attend today's rally...

After the prayer was over, Roy didn't even have time to bend down to rub his stiff legs when he saw the believers lining up to enter the side hall.

Priest Theodore would dip his fingers in the holy water in the silver plate to wash the souls of the believers who came in line, and then Roy would give the holy water in the holy water pool to these believers.

After the ceremony, Priest Reed's face was also a little pale.

After all, after every prayer, twelve beams of holy light will fall from the dome of the main hall, and each beam of holy light will consume a lot of power of holy light.

As the believers left one after another, Roy and Jasper were also responsible for cleaning the main hall and side halls, while Abt needed to clean the front courtyard.

After some cleaning, Roy and Jasper also sprinkled some water in the main hall.

The two sent the bucket back to the warehouse, and as soon as they opened the warehouse door, they found Priest Andison sitting in front of a mirror in a dark corner of the warehouse, as if talking to himself.

A broken candlestick was on the ground, and a candle emitting a faint holy light was burning in the candlestick.

Priest Andison heard the opening of the warehouse door, looked back and stopped talking.

Roy glanced at the bronze mirror casually, and only felt that something was a little strange, but what was so weird... He didn't think about it for a while.

I just saw four door-like items that were originally tied with ropes, but now there are three of them leaning side by side on the wall of the warehouse, with the linen still covering them.

The other one stood in front of Priest Andison...

Jasper stood at the door of the warehouse and greeted Priest Andison: "Teacher, is there anything we can do?"

"I'll just sit here for a while, you go to work!"

After speaking, Priest Andison casually covered the bronze mirror with a linen cloth.

There were still some chairs in the main hall that needed to be moved into the warehouse. Roy and Jasper walked out together when they saw the haggard Priest Andison without any instructions.

……

Roy and Jasper walked out of the warehouse and went to the main hall to move the benches...

When they returned to the warehouse, Priest Andison was no longer there.

The two moved all the unused benches into the warehouse and returned to the courtyard.

Roy saw Priest Theodore walking out of the temple in a hurry, then boarded a carriage that could only be owned by elves and nobles, and rushed towards the city.

This carriage looks very luxurious, even the horses that pull the carriage are all white, with a pinch of white flying feathers on the horseshoes.

Roy returned to the side hall, wanting to tidy up the holy water pool.

Priest Reed was standing in front of the holy water pool that was about to bottom out, as if he sighed.

He heard footsteps coming from the door, turned his head and saw Roy, and wanted to hide his depressed mood.

"Always like this is not the way..."

Roy walked to the front of the holy water pool, hung the silver spoon on the shelf, and said.

Priest Reed supported the high platform with the silver plate with one hand, and responded:

"Wait, maybe it won't be long before the holy brilliance of the Statue of Liberty will illuminate the entire elf continent again... Before that, Roy, you have to be prepared to recite the sacred prayers proficiently, and you can also memorize those magic spells God's pattern."

He turned and stared at Roy, and asked him:
"I heard that you have mastered Twilight Illumination and Blessing of Strength?"

"Ah."

Priest Reed said with undisguised joy in his eyes, "This is very good, your talent is outstanding, and you will definitely become a great priest in the future."

Roy hesitated and said, "Teacher, I have a question."

"Let's talk, I hope your question won't stump me." Priest Reed joked to Roy.

Roy organized the language a little bit before asking:
"Why is Jasper's purification technique different from yours? Not only are the spellcasting and divine patterns different, but the effect of the purification technique is also different. I saw him perform it, and it takes a certain amount of preparation time, and then the purification beam falls , Immediately purify that dead soul."

"As for your purification technique, I have hardly seen the drawing of divine lines, and the prayer is also very short, and if released, it will trap the resentful spirits like a prison. I think... if it is a sane Wraith, you must still have a few words with it..."

Priest Reed nodded and explained to Roy:

"That's about it, Roy, you observed very carefully."

He paused before saying:

"The so-called difference is not that the purification techniques are different, but the difference in level between me and Jasper. As an eighth-level apprentice priest, he is already very good at performing purification techniques."

Speaking of these, the exhaustion on that face seemed to be swept away...

"Before I became a great priest, I had already practiced the purification technique very skillfully."

He hesitated for a moment, and finally withdrew his hand that was about to demonstrate a divine technique.

"This improvement in proficiency not only reflects the speed of casting spells, but also deepens the understanding of divine spells. This understanding is the exquisite control of the details after the release of divine spells. That is to say, I can use the Holy Light to decide Purification...does it trap an undead in the light beam, or purify it completely."

Finally he added:

"Of course, this also requires that the strength of the Wraith is far weaker than mine. If it is a strong Wraith, I would not dare to take such a risk..."
