The mastermind behind this started by creating a strange story

Even the bronze color of the cross seemed to be changing into platinum. In an instant, the white light emitted by the cross disappeared, but it still had that sacred aura.

Melina, who owns the feather bracelet, can clearly sense that there is a holy power inside the cross, which is sacred, pure and clean.

"Is this my ability?!"

Melina looked at the small cross with surprise. The inscriptions carved on it seemed to be clearer.

I didn’t expect that the problem would be solved just by praying once. The Lord is indeed watching me!

When this thought came to Melina's mind, even with her calm nature, she couldn't help but show her joy.

Thinking of this, Melina first thanked the Lord in front of her again, and then couldn't help but run to find the Patriarch.

She wanted to share the good news.

A moment later, Melina found Patriarch Danny and excitedly shared with him the process of discovering her new ability.

After listening to Melina's explanation, Danny first thought about it and then raised his own questions.

"Can you still use this ability now?"

Hearing the question, Melina first calmly sensed the feather bracelet, then shook her head. She could not sense any special power.

But it will be used sooner or later. After the first time, there will definitely be a second time. After all, the first time is always the most difficult.

"Is it possible that you can only use it in prayer?" Patriarch Danny said thoughtfully. Prayer is a necessary condition. Only when this condition is met can the ability be used.

"Pray?" Melina pondered. "But the definition of prayer is so vague."

Prayer is talking to God, acknowledging His greatness and power, asking for help, and thanking Him for His many blessings.

Because of this, prayer can be performed at any time, but her new ability is uncertain. If it really requires prayer to use it, then what are the requirements for this prayer?

Does it have to be in front of the Holy Spirit statue, or can it be anywhere? If it must be in front of the Holy Spirit statue, can a small statue be used? These are all questions that need to be tested.

Hearing Melina's words, Patriarch Danny naturally understood what she meant. It was nothing more than that she was not sure about the form of prayer.

but……

"We have plenty of time. If you are not sure, why not try them one by one?" said Patriarch Danny.

In the following time, Melina and Patriarch Danny tested this new ability together. After testing, they found that this new ability to give objects holy power does require prayer to proceed.

Moreover, Melina must devote herself wholeheartedly to the prayer without any distracting thoughts in order to succeed.

As for the conditions for prayer, after various experiments, it is feasible as long as it is in front of the statue of the Holy Spirit, no matter how big or small.

Even a statue of the Holy Spirit carved on a small cross would do, so Melina got a new cross, a cross with a statue of the Holy Spirit.

As for the cross she had at the beginning, because of its holy power, it became a sacred object of the church. Although the use of this power has not yet been tested, it will be revealed sooner or later as time goes by.

Chapter 238: Perceiving the Holy Light

More than 30 years after the dramatic changes in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, the Eastern European countries, which had struggled under the shadow of the Soviet Union for more than 40 years, have finally recovered.

Although Russia's GDP has been declining for ten consecutive years, Romania has become an export base for prostitutes to Europe, there is war in the former Yugoslavia, and there is a mess of disorderly democracy everywhere.

But in fact, these statements are partly wrong. During the dramatic changes in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, there were still many countries that successfully transformed.

Therefore, the Orthodox Church, which is widely spread in Eastern European countries, has naturally developed and spread on its own. After all, since its inception, religion has begun to perform its social functions at different social levels and in different historical periods.

It influences people through religious doctrines and organizational activities, determines their world outlook and values, and thus has a direct or indirect impact on the society and country established by people.

Even now, the Orthodox Church has become the main religion of the Russian nation, and it has a huge impact on all aspects of the country and the entire nation. Religious culture has become one of the important components of Russian culture.

Although there are quite a lot of Catholics in Great Britain, the actual state religion of Great Britain is the Anglican Church, not the Catholic Church.

Russia is different from Great Britain. Since the baptism of Rus in 988 AD, Russia has officially become an Orthodox country, and the Orthodox Church has become the state religion of Russia.

As a result, the Lucia Orthodox Church became the largest independent church among the 15 autocephalous churches.

The Romanian Orthodox Church, which is second only to the Lucia Orthodox Church, would naturally be dissatisfied. After all, there is not so much harmony between each independent church.

Even a few years ago, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church held a closed-door meeting in the capital Kiev and voted to establish an independent church separated from the Lutheran Orthodox Church and elected a 39-year-old new leader.

Although they all believe in the Lord, every religious leader still has his own selfish desires. Who doesn't want the church he leads to be number one?

Patriarch Danny of the Romanian Orthodox Church had this idea at the moment. God had appeared in their church, and he even saw the messenger of the Lord with his own eyes.

Although he did not know whether other churches had heard the Lord's oracle, Patriarch Danny was certain that the Lucia Orthodox Church, which was alone above him, had certainly not received the Lord's oracle, and that was enough.

The Lucia Orthodox Church is already the largest independent church, and there is no point in hiding.

Today, their church not only listens to the Lord's oracles, but also has the mission given to them by the Lord. As long as they can perfectly solve the problem of those dark creatures and then inform the outside world, it is entirely possible for them to surpass the Lucia Orthodox Church and become the largest independent church.

With this idea in mind, Patriarch Danny did not reveal the news of God's coming in his church to churches in other regions, but kept it hidden instead.

He also turned down all arrangements that required him to appear in public, and instead lived in seclusion behind the scenes, allowing Archbishop John to help convey his orders.

Not only that, he even concealed the news from the country and did not reveal the news of God's descent to the president. It was not that he did not trust the president, but that he did not want to rely on the power of the country.

The news will be revealed to the world only after their church has wiped out all the dark creatures in one fell swoop. If any news that can be revealed can achieve the greatest benefit and no other problems will arise during the period of concealment, then there is no reason not to hide it.

Therefore, in the many days after God's descent, the Orthodox Church headquarters did not leak out any information at all, let alone the two warriors of the Lord.

There are already a lot of people in the church, so it's normal to see some unfamiliar people. Although their bodies have undergone some changes due to the influence of the feathers, they are still human beings overall and have not grown angel wings or anything like that.

So even if Arthur and Melina moved freely inside the church, no one noticed anything unusual. At most, they would sigh and say why they didn't discover such good-looking people in the church earlier.

Those investigators from other countries who came to this country a few months ago because of the appearance of the Angel of Energy found nothing in this country after several months of investigation, and had to withdraw a few weeks ago.

Because a few weeks ago, they had a new target, and there were bigger problems in Japan, and they were needed more there, so those countries relaxed their investigations here.

Therefore, until now, the headquarters of the Romanian Orthodox Church has remained undisturbed and from the outside it seems to be no different from before.

But now, although the appearance has not changed, the internal busyness has increased again. Ever since Melina showed abilities that have nothing to do with Arthur, she has more tasks to do.

For example, training the limits of one's own abilities, or whether there are other requirements for the power to grant sacredness to objects, etc.

Does the object given have to be a cross, or can anything else be given?

After that, Melina kept going out early and coming back late, and was exhausted every day. However, thanks to the sleeping-aiding effect of the bracelet, she could still be full of energy the next day.

The first thing that was tested was the limit of the power given to her. When she prayed to the tenth cross, she finally fainted from exhaustion. This frightened Patriarch Danny, who quickly sent a doctor from the church to check.

The conclusion was that the person fainted because he was too tired and his nerves could not hold on. So, this extreme test was cancelled, although there was another reason as well.

Since waking up from her faint, Melina has gained a new ability. She can sense the holy light energy inside the feathers, as well as the energy given to the inside of objects.

The holy light energy inside the feather is closely related to her spirit. If it is completely consumed, her nerves will be broken and she will faint.

Moreover, during the prayer process, she could also control the amount of holy light energy given to objects. Through these tests, Melina understood one thing: prayer was a necessary ritual to give other objects holy light energy.

Although she could sense the holy light energy, without the ritual, she still could not bestow the holy light energy on other objects.

When Melina was endowing other objects with holy light energy, Patriarch Danny also called Arthur over, but Arthur was confused. He seemed unable to do what Melina did. He could only bless himself with the holy light and could not give it to others.

However, Arthur does have an explanation for this. According to the game, he is the Paladin who mainly fights, and Melina is the Saint who mainly assists.

Patriarch Danny didn't understand this explanation, but he understood the general meaning, so he didn't pursue Arthur's statement.

During this period, Melina secretly sensed the holy light energy in Arthur's body, and her eyes were almost blinded by the golden light. Arthur was like the sun, emitting scorching golden light.

Then, Melina continued her practice, not only the cross, but also those legendary holy objects, including the Holy Grail, the Holy Lance, the Holy Ark, the Holy Crown of Thorns...

Although these holy objects are all imitations, the real holy objects are definitely not with them.

As the experiment progressed, she finally came to a conclusion that there were no requirements for items that could be endowed with holy light, and any object could carry the energy of holy light.

But the best is still the cross, after all, it is the symbol of Christ.

At this point, during this period of time, their church had suddenly acquired many more holy artifacts, so many that they could all be used for holy light experiments.

Chapter 239 Discovery

Bucharest, on the street outside the Orthodox Church headquarters.

Wayne once again stepped into the familiar coffee shop. This time even the clerk recognized him and asked if everything was the same as usual.

Wayne nodded and decided to just do as usual. After all, his mouth had memorized that taste and any other taste would be a bit strange.

After sending the clerk away, Wayne carried his backpack to a familiar seat, sat down, and took out the computer from the backpack.

Then... start doing your homework.

As for why he came to this cafe to do his homework instead of doing it in his rented apartment, it was to follow someone.

Thinking of this, Wayne looked at a person outside the glass window with a somewhat grim expression. The person was squatting on the side of the road unconsciously, wrapped tightly all over his body, looking as if he couldn't stand the light.

Ever since he spent the whole day in the cafe with the suspected mutant, Wayne has been feeling uncomfortable, as he spent the whole day and gained nothing.

Then, the unconvinced Wayne remembered the man's smell and planned to come back the next day to see if the man was still there.

It would be better if he was there, so that he could continue to stare at the other person.

The result was naturally that the man came to this place again, so Wayne was in a stalemate with that man for another day, but still gained nothing.

After wasting two days and still gaining nothing, Wayne was even more angry and he still didn't believe it.

Just like that, Wayne completely fought with the man who was suspected to be a mutant, and it became a matter of time to see who could outlast the other.

Of course, the person involved, Iler, still didn't notice Wayne's little tail. He just came to the church door every day to keep an eye on it according to his own ideas, hoping to get some different news.

Time passed slowly, and the more Wayne monitored that person, the more uncomfortable he felt. He had persisted for so long. If he gave up now, what would he do if that person took action tomorrow!

What else can I do? Just wait and see.

It’s just like drawing cards in a game. You’ve invested so much, and you have to get a result even if you have to sell everything you have. Otherwise, if you give up halfway through, all your previous investment will be wasted. Who knows, the result may come out in the next draw!

This phenomenon is commonly known as being high.

Today was also a day of doing homework and keeping an eye on him. Wayne clicked the mouse with gritted teeth, and used his peripheral vision to keep an eye on the oblivious Iler!

………………

Inside the church, Melina held the Holy Spirit Cross in her hand with a glass of ordinary water in front of her. She was experimenting to see if she could make holy water.

The concept of holy water has existed since the early days of the church. In the old days, holy water was pure water that had been blessed by a priest or bishop and did not possess any divine power.

And now, the holy light energy does exist. If the holy light energy can be given to the water, then this will be the real holy water, holy water with divine power.

As the prayer continued, platinum light emerged from the bracelet. Patriarch Danny even lowered his breathing beside him. He was not sure whether this would succeed.

After all, water has no physical form, unlike objects that can be held, and it is unknown whether it can store holy light energy.

The silky platinum light turned into tiny stars above the water cup and sprinkled down.

The starlight dissolved as soon as it came into contact with water. Patriarch Danny next to him didn't know whether this could be considered a success, after all, he could not sense the energy of the holy light.

After a while, the prayer ended, and Melina slowly opened her eyes with a look of joy on her face. She sensed that there was holy light energy in this glass of water.

The holy light energy did not merge into the cup, but merged into the clear water in the cup.

Looking at Melina's happy face, Patriarch Danny also smiled. Judging from the situation, it should be a success.

"Patriarch, I succeeded. This cup of water is truly holy water."

Melina picked up the glass of water in front of her and looked at the clear water that was no different from before. But only she could sense that this glass of water was glowing!

It's like adding fluorescent agent!

"Good, very good, child, do you know what this cup of holy water does?" Patriarch Danny picked up the cup of holy water and shook it in front of his eyes.

"Sorry, I don't know." Melina lowered her head in shame. She only knew how to give holy light energy to items, but she didn't know what it did.

She only knows the fact, but not the reason.

"It's okay, just give it a try." Patriarch Danny said, and drank the holy water in the cup in one gulp without any hesitation.

"It seems that nothing has changed."

After drinking, Patriarch Danny calmly sensed the changes in himself, but apart from the fact that he seemed to be more alert and his fatigue was gone, there seemed to be no other changes.

"how so……"

After hearing the Patriarch's comments, Melina felt a little bit unbelievable. This was holy water with holy light energy added to it, how could there be no changes at all!

Could it be that there are other changes that we haven't noticed, but we haven't discovered them yet?

"Don't be discouraged. We cannot understand this energy, so it is normal that we cannot sense its power." Seeing Melina like this, Patriarch Danny comforted her.

"I'm fine, Patriarch. I just can't believe it. Maybe there are other changes that we haven't noticed yet."

Having said that, Melina thought about it and brought up another matter.
