"Are all of your people okay?" Chen Rui glanced at the church members below who were entering the boat in an orderly manner. What he was implying was that a crown in exchange for the lives of a cardinal, two saints and so many church members. They didn't owe each other anything.
"This is all thanks to you, sir." Glalin was also a sophisticated person. He suddenly smiled. "Can you use the holy power of the Crown of Thorns? This is my only request for the Crown of Thorns. "
"Only?" Chen Rui looked at Glalin with some surprise. He waved his hand and the Crown of Thorns above his head released a soft white light towards Glalin. Gralin neither dodged nor gave way. Suddenly, he felt a divine power envelop his entire body, resonating with his own light elemental energy. Some of the remaining negative energy from the previous battle was dispelled, and he felt refreshed.
"It really is the power of 'Divine Blessing'!" Glalin took a deep breath and stabilized his emotions. He was shocked when he saw Chen Rui's relaxed look. He asked tentatively, "Sir … do you feel uncomfortable?"
"Uncomfortable? Of course not. "Chen Rui shook his head and pointed at the Crown of Thorns." This crown has recognized me as its master. "
The meaning of this sentence was obvious. The crown is mine.
In fact, Chen Rui did the same. The Crown of Thorns flashed and disappeared. Just like the other artifacts that were analyzed, it was stored in the Super System.
This scene shocked Glalin. What Chen Rui didn't expect was that the cardinal didn't pursue it. Instead, he looked excited. "Good, good! That's great! It's really the blessing of the God of Light! "
Chen Rui: "…"
Are you kidding me? I stole your equipment and you still want to write a thank you letter?
Glalin bowed deeply to Chen Rui. "Sir, can you stay on my ship for a while? I will tell you more secrets related to this Crown of Thorns. "
More secrets? Chen Rui saw that Glalin didn't seem to be lying. He looked at the broken ship that had begun to sink and frowned. "Are you sure?"
"Of course." Glalin followed his gaze and looked embarrassed.
Chen Rui thought for a while and finally gave the answer. "Go to my ship."
Soon after, Glalin and the church members appeared on the Devil's Snare Ship.
Looking at the exquisite and magnificent gigantic sailing ship and the skillful sandmen sailors, even the knowledgeable people of the Church could not help but show a look of surprise. However, they did not ask much.
Under the effect of Chen Rui's Divine Healing Technique, even the seriously injured were under good control. They looked at Chen Rui with more respect.
Glalin left Clark and April on the deck to take care of and restrain the believers. He followed Chen Rui into the cabin room. Paglio and Dodo were drinking at the bow of the ship.
Rolla and others had been informed by Chen Rui in advance, so they stayed in their rooms and didn't show up.
"Sir Glalin, please sit down." Chen Rui said calmly, "Let me say something first. It was actually an accident that I saved you."
With his strength, there was no need to entangle with Glalin at all. At most, he could throw all these church members back into the boat or directly into the sea. However, he was still interested in the secret of the crown.
Glalin nodded. "The matter of the Crown of Thorns … was also an accident. However, you don't have to worry. You are already the master of the Crown of Thorns. There is no doubt about this."
"Did I become the master of the Crown of Thorns and fulfilled the church's prophecy? What savior did I become? Please forgive me … I read some interesting novels recently. "Chen Rui shrugged." But I don't like to beat around the bush. Just say it. "
"It is really an interesting novel." Glalin smiled knowingly. "Actually, I don't like to beat around the bush either. Let's fulfill our promise and tell you the secret of the Crown of Thorns first. The Crown of Thorns is one of the three holy relics of light. These three holy relics are also collectively known as' creation '. "
"'Creation'?" Chen Rui recalled the feeling when the Crown of Thorns triggered the trace of creation in his body, and his heart moved.
Chen Rui's understanding of the Super System was not the same as before. Since the "galaxy" of the Super System was a real country with faith and life instead of an imaginary imagination, then he must understand a more complete law of the universe if he wanted to go further.
There must be not only destruction but also creation.
As for Ben Hong's shortcut of fusing creation and destruction to become a god, Chen Rui was not interested. Everyone had their own direction, especially Chen Rui who owned the Super System. He was originally walking a different path.
However, in any case, the origin of creation was indispensable for him. Especially now that the opportunity was still in front of him, he must not miss it.
Glalin saw Chen Rui's interested look and explained, "It is said that these three holy relics were modified by the gods based on the container of the power of creation of the world. They have incredible power, so they were named as such."
The container of the power of creation of the world! Chen Rui came to a realization. Could it be that it is used to store the origin of creation …
"If you gather the three holy relics and get recognized, you can get incredible enlightenment and have a powerful power far beyond the Holy level." Glalin smiled slightly, "I don't know if you used any special power. My perception is limited. I can only sense that your strength seems to have not reached the level of Holy. Of course, the strength of your two friends has already surpassed the Saint-level. "
"Your perception is right. My strength is still at the guard-level, but because of some special reasons, I have two companions who are at the level of Holy." Chen Rui showed a "calm" expression, but his heart was clear – the creator of these three holy relics was definitely not a god. However, gathering the three holy relics and "obtaining incredible enlightenment" was a shortcut to understand the origin of creation.
The Crown of Thorns had provided the best proof. This was definitely a feasible path.
"That's right, the whereabouts of the other two holy relics … Sir Glalin, can you tell me?"
When Glalin heard the words "companions who are at the level of Holy", his eyes flashed and he said, "You should know that about 200,000 years ago, the human world had three great holy empires. They were the Long Huang Empire, the Rayo Empire, and the Cloud Empire. The three supreme angels carried out the will of the gods and gave the three holy relics to the three empires as national treasures. However, 20,000 years ago, the Cloud Empire was jointly attacked by the allied forces led by the Long Huang Empire and the Rayo Empire. The empire was finally destroyed, and its homeland was split into dozens of kingdoms of various sizes. The famous Starlight Kingdom was one of them. The truth of this war was a crusade against the cultists. At that time, the Cloud Empire was completely controlled by the terrifying cultists, the Black Death Apostles. The people of 30 cities were all sacrificed, shocking the entire human world. Not only that, the Black Death Apostles also extended their hands to the elves in the Jadeite Forest Sea, attempting to use the Tree of Life to summon the Evil God. This almost caused the elves to be wiped out. Under the call of the church, most of the countries led by the two empires joined forces and finally eliminated the Cloud Empire, resolving this terrible disaster. "
So that's how it is! Chen Rui nodded slowly. The crisis in the Jadeite Forest Sea was resolved by his father-in-law, the Elf King. For this, Pan paid a huge price. If it wasn't for his mother-in-law, the fairy dragon, who risked her life to save him, his father-in-law would have met the Elf Goddess long ago. Until now, the Tree of Life had not fully recovered, and the seal was showing signs of loosening.
"Sir Glalin means … the other two holy relics are currently in the Long Huang Empire and the Rayo Empire?"
"That's right. One is the Holy Grail, and the other is the Holy Light Robe." Glalin nodded. "As national treasures, they should be hidden in the most secret treasure vaults of the two empires. Only the emperors would know their true whereabouts."
"I feel that Sir Glalin seems to be reminding me of something? Is it a condition, or … a threat? "
"Hehe, don't misunderstand, Sir." Glalin shook his head. "I'm just stating the facts out of goodwill. Don't you like to beat around the bush? Forgive me for being blunt, but the background of the two Holy Empires is not to be underestimated. It's much stronger than what you see on the surface. Although the power in your hands is extraordinary, it will be extremely difficult to obtain the Holy Grail and the Holy Light Robe no matter what methods you use. Unless, you borrow the power of the Church of Light. "
"Is that so?" Chen Rui smiled noncommittally as he quickly calculated in his mind.
"Let me be frank, Sir. I am the Cardinal of the Church of Light. The enemy who attacked me earlier was the heretic 'Black Death Apostle' who worships darkness and destruction. In the moment of crisis, I used a secret technique to open the seal of the Crown of Thorns. However, because my body could not bear the holy power of the Crown of Thorns, it almost collapsed. Therefore, the Crown of Thorns automatically chose you. Your body … should be the purest Body of Light. Just this point alone makes you qualified to become the Holy Son of the Church, which is also the successor of His Holiness the Pope! "
"Holy Son?" Chen Rui was really stunned this time. The successor of His Holiness the Pope? Was there a mistake somewhere?
Seeing that Chen Rui was stunned for a long time without saying anything, Glalin could not help but say, "Sir …"
Chen Rui finally came back to his senses and rubbed his nose. "Actually, the word I want to say now is' hehe '."
Glalin looked excited. "Sir, have you agreed to become the Holy Son?"
Which eye of yours saw me agree? Chen Rui was speechless and spread his hands. "I forgot that this kind of vocabulary is too advanced for you. Let's change it to something more common — not interested."
"Sir, you seem to have some misunderstanding about the Church?" Glalin was not discouraged. He would not give up so easily. The theft of the Snow Tree was still a secret of the Church. However, as one of the three Grand Cardinals and also the person who experienced the incident at the Snowy Peak Platform, Glalin and the leaders of the Church were very clear about the consequences of the disappearance of the Snow Tree. Before the Snow Tree recovered, the Church of Light would not be able to transform the most important Body of Light, nor would they be able to select warriors, including saints. In the long run, it would cause immeasurable damage to the prestige and faith of the entire Church.
The appearance of the Crown of Thorns was an unexpected surprise. The Crown of Thorns had a very important function, and that was' Divine Blessing '. It could transform one's Light Attribute physique step by step. Although it couldn't be compared to the Snow Dallet Flower's effect, it could effectively replace the Snow Dallet Tree's growth.
The only drawback was that the Crown of Thorns could only be fully exerted by the Body of Light, and it would cause a certain amount of rebound damage to the user. Currently, Pope Fandis was the only suitable candidate. In the long run, his already limited lifespan would run out prematurely.
However, now there was another young man with the highest Body of Light, and he was so talented that he could completely control the Crown of Thorns and use "Divine Blessing" without being hurt. This was a gift from God!
Therefore, no matter what, Glalin would not miss this "Holy Son". He immediately explained patiently.
"The authority of the Holy Son is equal to that of the Patriarch? He can freely enter any place in the Holy Mountain, including the forbidden area of the shrine? " Chen Rui finally "relaxed" his attitude after hearing Glalin's words. "I need time to think about it."
"I can wait!" Glalin could not help but be overjoyed. "By the way, I still don't know your name, Sir?"
"Alright, I was rude, Sir Glalin." Chen Rui revealed a meaningful smile. "My name is … Arthur."
