My name is Ren

Chapter 563 Faith is a very magical thing, enough to support a person to go to extremes without fear

No one can pat their chests and say that they have not done a single thing they regret from birth to the present, and no one dares to say that what they did was done according to their own will, without the interference of other external things.

Therefore, as long as you are a human being, as long as you are not a saint, you will always have regrets, big or small, in your life.Some regrets may make people sigh, and some regrets may follow people for a lifetime like a shadow.

When the Grand Duke Joan of Arc was completely enveloped by the Holy Light, all kinds of negative emotions deep in his heart erupted instantly, just like chewing a rotten chili, smelly, sour, bitter, spicy, all the tastes that can make people uncomfortable All come to mind.These regrets turned into little devils, waving steel forks in their hands and stabbing her heart continuously, leaving her heart full of holes and blood flowing into rivers.

A cloudy tear was slowly squeezed out from the lacrimal gland. This was the first tear that Grand Duke Joan of Arc shed after the age of 20.Immediately afterwards, the two lacrimal glands poured out tears as if the embankment had collapsed, converging into several rivers, flowing wantonly on her face.

At this moment, she suddenly realized that she had so much remorse and regret in her seemingly honorable life!

Inspired by the Holy Light, Grand Duke Joan burst into tears!
Everyone has all kinds of pressure. Living in the quagmire, the untouchables have pressure, and the high-ranking Queen Pars also has pressure. The pressure is fair, and you will not have a soft spot for you just because you are a untouchable or an emperor. , or ignore it.

When there is stress, you need to relieve stress. Everyone has different ways to relieve stress, but crying loudly is the cheapest and most enjoyable way.

In the bitter cry, Grand Duke Joan of Arc felt that he was much better, emotionally, psychologically, and spiritually, and he relaxed a lot.

But she couldn't feel any gratitude to the cardinal in front of her. She gritted her teeth and cursed viciously, "Cult!", but couldn't help but smile again after she finished speaking.

"Great and holy as a father, you sprinkle light, dispel shadows and evil, and redeem our souls. Great and holy as a father, you bestow justice so that we can know awe and distinguish right from wrong. Great and holy as a father,...", along with the prayer The sound made Grand Duke Joan's body shake violently, her eyes were filled with horror, and then the horror was dispelled peacefully.She slowly closed her eyes, with a peaceful and serene smile on her face, clasped her hands and fingers on her chest, and began to read along with the cardinal.

"Great and Holy as Father!"

The core idea of ​​the art of gratitude is to let people understand that it is not easy to live in this world, but they should not be full of hostility to the world because of their regrets and remorse, but to thank the world because they still exist in this world, Thank you for all your past experiences, and thank you for all the factors that make you sublimate.

In the Chapter of Divine Art, there is another divine art that has a somewhat similar effect to the Great Gratitude Art, and that is the Great Inspiration Art.

Of course, it is not needed at this time, and there is no need to use it.

When the holy light dissipated, the cardinal's originally rosy face turned pale, and the consumption of the holy power made him feel more tired than ever.Grand Duke Joan of Arc was determined, so she could only use long-term magic to influence her, but it also overloaded his output of holy power.Fortunately, it all paid off, and he succeeded in the end.

If the former Grand Duke Joan of Arc was sitting on the bed, hiding in the dark palace, with a gloomy and distorted complexion, and the stiff muscles on her body were as hard as stones, she was almost the same as a demon in a certain fairy tale.At this time, the peaceful and peaceful smile on her face and the relaxed muscles all over her body made her look like an ordinary old man.

She opened her eyes, glanced at the cardinal, shook her head slightly, "You won!"

The cardinal laughed, winning Joan of Arc as a believer would be beneficial to the entire church.As long as the church works hard and finds a way to help Grand Duke Joan of Arc solve the current situation in this matter, the church will get more things than imagined.What's more, even if Queen Pars wanted to punish Grand Duke Joan for taking her title and feudal kingdom afterwards, that would be after Grand Duke Joan's death.

As long as she lives, as long as she doesn't give Queen Pars a chance, as long as she can live long enough, this costless transaction will make the church a fortune.

This is why the cardinal came here in person, they want to win Grand Duke Joan of Arc!
The missionary group of the church fought fiercely with the believers of the Goddess of Nature in the territory of the Byron Empire. Speaking of which, before the church wanted to launch a war of faith, it also specifically checked the theogony and confirmed that the Goddess of Nature was an unpopular god. Immediately afterwards, a war of faith was launched.At this time, the believers of the Goddess of Nature Sect were losing ground, which had already aroused official unease.Of course, the church is not afraid of Byron's official actions. As the results of missionary missions gradually appear, the missionary group has room for detours in Byron's country.

The reason that really prompted the church to recruit Grand Duke Joan of Arc despite the possibility of confronting Queen Pars was the Northern Expedition, or this turmoil.

The group of Shamans in the full moon has realized that this is a possible opportunity, changed the previous truce with the Orlando Empire, and once again concentrated the troops of the five royal tents on the frontier, waiting for the situation in the interior of the Orlando Empire to deteriorate , Grace had the chance to go back and pick up the pieces to attack.The Byron Empire has built a total of 27 large ships, which are already hovering near the coast of Orlando, ready to land anytime and anywhere.

Once the Three Kingdoms War kicks off, this is the church's opportunity!
Golden opportunity!

Don't look at the fact that the Pope is almost unable to lift his head under the pressure of the Orlando family, as if he has resigned to his fate, and is even willing to draw the attention of the Byron Empire Army for the Orlando family in the territory of the Byron Empire, but as long as the opportunity really arises, the Church will never Will sit back and watch the opportunity slip away from my hand!

Countless glorious histories and pasts make every pope want to reproduce the grand occasion of being the emperor and king of the world!

The cardinal opened the Bible in his hand and sat next to Grand Duke Joan of Arc. The smile on his face was as warm and bright as the sunshine in spring, "It is very good that you are willing to convert to the church, everyone has Pursue the power of the true self. Let's understand the Bible first..."

Grand Duke Joan of Arc, who had not been seen for more than a month, once again appeared in people's sight, which made many people breathe a sigh of relief.As long as Grand Duke Joan's body does not have any problems due to grief, then there is no need to worry about the collapse of the entire feudal state in a short time.Of course, many people also have some doubts about the clothes of Grand Duke Joan of Arc at this time. In the past, Grand Duke Joan of Arc would wear leather armor wherever he went.

All the time, anytime, anywhere, she is conveying a message to her surroundings. She is the number one female knight in the empire, and she is an invincible Valkyrie.

But today, she is wearing a long white dress, her gray hair is tightly tied together, her face is no longer rigid, and there are more amiable smiles on her face.She was holding a thick book in her hand, and she would always smile at anyone she met.

Many people don't know what happened to the queen.

At this time, behind the window on the third floor of a bar on the King's Avenue, two middle-aged men with expressionless faces and slightly gray faces looked at Grand Duke Joan not far away on the King's Avenue, with a little surprised look on their faces.They are black priests. The purpose of coming to Toddillas this time is to complete the mission and assassinate Grand Duke Joan of Arc.But they never thought that Grand Duke Joan was actually a member of the church?
They know their deadly enemies too well, and they are even more familiar with the disgusting smell like the sun on Grand Duke Joan of Arc. She is actually a believer in the church?

Or an apostle?
No matter who she is, this assassination will not stop, and it is precisely because of her special identity that more black priests will come to assassinate her.

This has nothing to do with missions. This is a war, a religious war, a war of faith, and it is also a real millennium war—a faith confrontation and fighting that has lasted for thousands of years.

The two quickly stuffed the food on the table into their mouths, not even letting go of the food residue on the table and on the plate, and drank every drop of the fruit wine in the glass.This is the tradition of the black priests and their code.Because of the long-term blows from the empire and the Church of Light, the life of the black priests is actually not rich, and it can even be said that they are poor.So for the saving of food, they even wrote it in the canon.

He took out two hundred copper coins and put them on the table. Apart from the money for food and fruit wine, there were about twenty copper coins for tips.The two checked the weapons in their arms, looked at each other with determination, and walked out of the tavern without the slightest anger, following the crowd towards Grand Duke Joan of Arc.

The residents of Toddillas comforted Grand Duke Joan of Arc, and some people asked about the future of the city. Everyone was very concerned about whether there would be war with the empire in the future.During this bustling process, the two approached Grand Duke Joan, one from the left and the other from the right.

Although there are guards protecting Grand Duke Joan of Arc, today's Grand Duke Joan of Arc is obviously different from the past. She has no pretensions and is willing to get close to everyone in this city. This also gives the black priests the ultimate great opportunity.

Seeing that Grand Duke Joan of Arc was not far in front of him, the ring finger of one of them was wrapped around a rope.There is a mechanism in his sleeve. Once the mechanism is pulled, a one-foot-long short sword will be ejected from the slide rail tied to the arm. This is almost the regular equipment of black priests.

Grand Duke Joan of Arc was getting closer and closer to the two of them, and the two of them looked at each other among the crowded heads, and instantly became fanatical!

"Long live xx!" (The keyword has been blocked, and I have been warned, and can only be replaced by xx), the instant shouting made the entire King's Road go silent.The black priests are so arrogant and domineering, and it is their arrogant assassination actions that make the black priests well-known.Two gray shadows visible to the naked eye instantly stuck to the body of Grand Duke Joan of Arc, her heart tightened, and the fighting spirit in her body burst out immediately.

However, what she didn't expect was that the fighting spirit, which should have been full of explosive and destructive power like a volcanic eruption, was now like the water in a river.

There may be some disturbances, but it has nothing to do with berserk!
It's a curse!

The two sword lights had already approached her body, her face was calm, without the slightest panic, years of fighting had given her a strong psychological quality, she slightly changed her standing posture and direction, to ensure that the two swords would not be taken At the same time, she also pulled out a long sword from the waist of the guard around her, and stabbed one of the two assassins.

She is still careless.

In her perception, even a dead soldier would not sacrifice himself meaninglessly.Her stabbing with the sword can definitely kill the opponent, and at the same time, she will also be injured, not a serious injury that will not endanger life.Then the opponent should miss this attack, and then she can draw out her hand to deal with another assassin.

But what she didn't expect was that this group of black priests couldn't be treated with common sense at all. Not only did the black priest not retreat, but he took the initiative to take another step forward, allowing the long sword to be inserted into his chest, and the sword in his hand It also stabbed into the shoulder of Grand Duke Joan of Arc.With a ferocious smile on his face, he tightly grasped the long sword on his chest and looked at the other person.

The man didn't give up any chance, ignored the long swords stabbed at him by the guards, and forcibly inserted the dagger into the vest of Grand Duke Joan of Arc.

The assassination broke out very suddenly and ended very quickly. The whole process took only four or five seconds, but in just four or five seconds, the world once again witnessed the madness of the black priests!

The two black priests collapsed on the ground, with bloody holes all over their bodies. Grand Duke Joan of Arc swayed and quickly left with the help of the guards.

The cardinal who had just rested was woken up again, and returned to Grand Duke Joan's bedroom with a murderous look on his face. He glanced at the dying Grand Duke Joan on the bed and recovered with a miracle.

"Who did it?" He turned to stare at the guards on the side.

The leader of the guards smiled wryly and said, "It's the black priest."

The cardinal nodded noncommittally, and he turned back to the bedside, seeing the face of Grand Duke Joan of Arc turning rosy as his aura became stronger and stronger, and he was relieved.As long as there is still a breath, even if it is cut into a few sections, as long as it is put together and restored by miracles, it is enough for people to heal in a very short time and become alive and kicking.

In the entire church, there are only more than 20 people who can perform such a powerful divine art. Each time it takes a year to perform it, and it takes one year of life force as the price for performing such a god-defying divine art.

The cardinal was already old enough, but he didn't expect to lose another year of life. He was also angry at this time, and immediately took out a personal seal from his arms and threw it to the bishop beside him, "Go to the Inquisition , Call at least fifty Judgment Knights over here, this group of damned, dirty, ugly maggots, find them, burn them to death!"
