Chapter 187 Blessing Ceremony
At the same time, it is located in a secret space in the central area of the eastern continent.
On top of the endless mountains, tall and majestic palaces stand, all golden in color, supported by several huge stone pillars.
In each palace, there were several people wearing golden robes who stopped. They all had the golden mark representing the Church of Dawn on their chests. They knelt on the ground with pious expressions and clasped their hands together, praying silently.
Dang, Dang Dang...
At this time, a series of bells broke the tranquility here, causing all the people who were praying quietly to open their eyes.
"Is this the dawn warning bell?"
"Another Holy Beloved appears... No!"
"She is not a saint, but a candidate saint who has inherited authority!"
After realizing this, everyone stood up one after another and looked towards the depths of the mountains, the palace that represented the supreme dawn. Their faces were expressionless, but their eyes showed a little joy.
Another authority appears...
This means that the power of their Dawn Church has been further enhanced!
As they thought, in the supreme palace of the Dawn Church, several old men wearing red robes with old but peaceful expressions were sitting on tall chairs.
Opposite them, on a golden high-backed chair higher up, sat an old man wearing a golden crown. He was none other than the Pope of the Church of the Dawn—Saint Jobin XV.
"Your Majesty the Pope, is this already the fifth one?"
"Um."
St. Jobin XV calmly stared outside the palace, as if through layers of space, he saw what was happening far away on the Cordo Sea.
"This is the second time since the Fourth Era that more than four authority-blessed ones have descended at dawn... What is the authority this time?"
"Good authority."
Hearing this, all the cardinals showed smiles on their faces, "Good authority is good, and it is more suitable for the doctrine of the Dawn than blasphemous authority."
"In this way, the four guardians of bravery, kindness, judgment and punishment will come in this era, plus the blasphemous authority..."
"Every time multiple saints appear, it means that the Dawn Church will face a crisis..."
"Maybe it's the blessing of dawn? After all, in the past records, there have only been five saints who controlled power once..."
Saint Jobin XV raised his hand slightly to stop the argument among these people, "No matter what we face in the future, it will be the guidance of Dawn. What we have to do is to protect them and prevent those evil beings from taking action against them."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Saint Jobin XV nodded slightly and did not continue to speak. There was a moment of emptiness in his eyes, as if he was communicating something. A few seconds later, his brows furrowed slightly, and he sighed in a slightly aged voice: "Huberto, return to the embrace of the dawn."
"What?"
The cardinals below were all stunned, "How did he die? He went to chase the aberrant wizard in accordance with the ruling, right?"
"That's what the deformed wizard did, and it's precisely because of this that Huberto sacrificed all his faith and prayed for the blessing of the dawn, so that...Pafula became the favored one of the dawn, the inheritor of good authority. .”
"Fall, sacrifice..."
The cardinals looked at each other and said in unison: "Anyone who desecrates the dawn will be judged by the dawn!"
The Pope nodded slightly, then stood up, waved the scepter on his hand, and coldly commanded: "Let the Saint of Judgment and her legion go out."
The cardinals were stunned again, "Your Majesty, at this time..."
According to what they thought, the Heroic Saint was on the Kordo Sea, closer to the aberrant wizard. There should be no need to send out a judge to judge the Saint...
"In addition to Huberto, Ambrose has also returned to the arms of the dawn!"
"Huh?" The cardinal's eyes gradually turned cold. "Is he going to chase the great knight of Ales Coulibaly? Did something happen to him too?"
"Let the Saint of Judgment chase down the aberrant wizard Wayne Loft of the Ghost School, and bring back the good guardian of authority. At the same time, notify the Saint of Valor and ask her to postpone her trip to the Southern Continent to bring Alais with her. Go back to the sanctuary!”
"You want to bring Alais back too?"
St. Jobin XV looked indifferent, "Yes, bring him to the Holy Land. This is the will just delivered by the Great Dawn!"
"Please obey!"
The cardinals did not dare to have any doubts or hesitations. They believed that the Pope, who could communicate directly with Dawn, did not dare to falsely preach the Holy Oracle of the Great Lord.
After these people left, St. Jobin XV sat back on the golden high-backed chair.
"Why……"
For a long time, deep sighs echoed in this huge palace.
"The guns are ringing, the knell has come...dawn..."
…
…
In the clown theater, Claire's face changed slightly when she saw the light beam in the sky.
"Damn it, it's the dawn blessing ceremony. Menor, you have to bring Wei En back here quickly, otherwise he won't be able to escape when the blessing ceremony starts."
Menoer also saw the picture in the mirror. When he heard her words, he said helplessly: "You are too impatient. You obviously didn't tell him about the substitute necklace before."
"I've got the answer I want, but the situation is different now." Claire glared at him, "Just tell me, can you go out and save him now?"
"Don't worry, didn't you notice that someone else is coming?"
"Um?"
Menor waved his hand and tilted the picture in the mirror to an angle - there was a five-masted sailboat speeding toward Ween and the others.
Claire took a look and frowned, "This bow looks like the logo of the Black Pearl, right?"
"That's right!" Menor asked with a half-smile, "Is there something you didn't tell me?"
"What's there to say?" Claire's face became even more ugly, thinking of the time when Wei En shot and killed a captain of the Black Pearl. "A few days ago, Wei En killed a crew member of the Black Pearl. It should be They came."
"Is that so?" Menor pointed at the people on the ship, "Black Jack, the first mate of the Black Pearl, whose strength is suspected to be legendary, shouldn't he come here just for such a trivial matter, right?"
"It's him?"
"have you seen?"
Claire frowned, "He appeared in Custer City State before, and he also tried to kidnap Tina, um, that disaster species."
"Oh? Disaster species?" Menor seemed to have thought of something and raised his eyebrows: "That should be Isabello's order. As far as I know, ever since Isabello fought with the guy on the west coast, He hasn’t appeared again, I guess his current situation is not very good.”
"None of this matters. Even the Black Pearl has appeared now. Wei En's situation is even more dangerous. Go and save him!"
"Hmm...huh? Wait! Who is this person?"
Just as Menor was about to nod in agreement, out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a figure on the Bekli, who turned out to be Dr. Euan Morris.
"What's wrong?"
"I seem to see an old friend..."
Epidemic doctor Maurice...is that you?
Claire asked in confusion: "Who?"
"Let's wait and see. Maybe nothing will happen to Wayne. I remember that he was also in Custer City State before..."
Menor's eyes flickered slightly, but he did not explain more.
…
…
On the other hand, Wei En really didn't expect that he would see familiar people on the sea thousands of miles away from the city of Custer.
"Marco..."
Looking carefully, there was not only Marco on the five-masted sailboat, but also Black Jack, who wanted to kidnap Tina that night, the Vazquez princess who stared at him with hatred and hatred, and—— Euan?
How did the two of them end up on that ship?
Wei En could guess the purpose of Black Jack's visit. It was probably because of the previous killing of Captain Henrik of the Storm Hunter, and he came to invite or deal with him in accordance with the rules of the Black Pearl.
But Marco and Euan were on a boat with them, which was what puzzled him the most and made him even more surprised!
Especially Marco, shouldn't he continue to stay in the Department of Secrets after that night?
Or is he originally a pirate on the Black Pearl?
Well, it's not impossible, although the probability is not high.
However, Wei En also knew that now was not the time to think about these things. There was still a Holy Beloved of the Dawn Church floating on his head at the moment.
"It seems that after finishing dealing with the people of Dawn Church, there is still something to do. It's really..."
Thinking of this, Wei En waved his hand over there, indicating that he had discovered them, which was considered as saying hello to them.
Then, he took out the golden key and turned it gently, preparing to return to the Clown Theater, bring Claire out, and use the power of the resurrected coffin to resurrect her.
However, this time, no matter how he turned the key, the space transformation leading to the clown theater did not appear, as if a mysterious force strengthened the surrounding space.
[You are within the range of the blessing ceremony of Orpheus, Lord of the Dawn, and the space you are in is locked. Evaluation: I advise you to be mediocre...but it's too late! Special rewards: Survival Points +50, Origin +1, Spirit Level +2, Resilience Level +2. 】
Space locked?
Wayne frowned slightly and looked up at Pavla in mid-air.
After two beams of light, one golden and one blue, descended in mid-air, the ball of light around the priest named Pafula continued to expand outwards, which represented that the power of blessing was gradually increasing. And her originally clear body became blurred, as if she was deliberately blocking the outside world's sight.
wrong,
Wei En noticed the situation around the light ball, and his expression gradually became serious, "Space is distorted!"
Observing carefully, he found that when the light ball expanded, the surrounding space would be compressed, forming a ring-shaped halo. Even though they were far apart, the terrifying power still made him feel a strong sense of oppression.
Not only that, a layer of golden clouds appeared in the sky at some point, and a shadow was vaguely revealed above the clouds - a golden robe, a blurry face, only the outline of the face, and a pair of eyes glowing with golden light. , exuding a warm atmosphere.
Immediately afterwards, I saw the phantom slowly stretching out a palm, falling gently from above, and landing on the golden-blue ball of light. It was just like the blessing given to adults by the bishop in the church. Blessed by Pavla.
Wei En just glanced at it, then subconsciously closed his eyes and turned his head.
Yes, it's Him?
That's right, it must be Him - Orpheus, Lord of the Dawn!
Even just a glance at that figure can make his eyes burn.
As if to remind him that this was punishment for his blasphemy.

Tsk!
Noticing the prompts on the panel, Wei En instantly disappeared on the Ronan and moved closer to Euan and the others.
Now, things are in trouble!
"Come here, Wayne, come and have a chat."
At this time, Euan on the Bekli said a faint greeting.
"Euan, uncle," Wayne turned around and glanced at him, then glanced at the other people on the boat one by one, and finally his eyes stopped on Marco, "And Marco, long time no see."
"I haven't seen you for a while..."
Marco forced a smile on his face. If the time and place were different, he would be very happy to meet Wayne.
But at this time, with the blessing of dawn and the pirates of the Black Pearl all around...
No matter how you look at it, it's not the right place.
"I'm going to kill him!"
Nicole Vazquez in the crowd stared at Wayne with murderous intent in her eyes.
Even though more than ten days have passed, she still can't forget what happened that night in Custer City, on that damn Dumitru Street.
Her companions, her tribe, the brave warriors of Vasquez... were all killed by this man!
"Nicole, calm down!" After hearing her words, Walid reminded in a low voice: "You should have seen the way he was fighting just now. Once we become enemies with him at this time, maybe the first officer and the others will not get into trouble, but you , including me, I’m afraid everyone will die in his hands!”
"I……"
"Walid is right," Black Jack, who was not far away, heard the two people's words and said coldly: "Although his current strength cannot pose a threat to me and Euan, it is impossible to kill him instantly. .Nicole, you don’t want that terrifying corpse explosion technique to appear again on the Bekli, right?”
Nicole bit her lip to prevent the tears from flowing out. This was her last stubbornness as a princess of the Vazquez clan.
The next second, she turned around, pushed away the crowd behind her, and ran towards the cabin.
Walid opened his mouth, "Nicole..."
"Let her calm down alone." Black Jack shook his head. If these Vazquez people really wanted to join the Black Pearl, he would not be so heartless. However...
"Aren't you coming?" Youan ignored the conversation between several people, but looked at Wei En and invited again: "You can't leave here until the ceremony is over, can you?"
Wayne glanced at him, then flashed and appeared on the side of the Bekli ship. Fortunately, the amplification power of the forbidden object is still there, so he is not too worried about those on the Black Pearl taking action against him.
At worst, I'll use the silver mouth organ again!
"Uncle Euan, how did you go to sea?"
