"A gift from the Goddess, from a magic array?" Garelin held the Red Bull and stroked it with his fingers: "What kind of metal is this? It doesn't look like steel, and it definitely isn't silver or copper … Also, why isn't there a lightning symbol on the goddess's gift, but two opposing bulls? "
"I think people use lightning to represent the Goddess, but that doesn't mean the Goddess can only draw lightning, right? I noticed that the pattern of these two bulls is very symmetrical, and the material is also very special. It's very difficult for people to draw it, right? " Reynolds shrugged his shoulders, trying to determine the nature of this matter as soon as possible: "What else could it be from a magic array, right?"
"That's right." Garelin nodded and put down the can: "Since it's a gift from the Goddess, we should drink it with gratitude. Everyone, share it and don't waste it. When you're done, take the can back and let me see what material it is. Oh, you can go now, Reynolds stays. "
The three friends solemnly took their share of the "sweet drink" and walked away with a smile, leaving Reynolds alone to face the old man. He reached out and touched his forehead, but found that there was no sweat there as he imagined. However, his palms were indeed wet.
"This is really a miraculous thing. I remember there was a similar record in the 'War Hymn of the King', saying that devout believers will be blessed, taste the taste of happiness, and dispel the aging of the body. "The old man was immersed in his memories for a moment, then continued:" But there's one thing I still don't understand. Although the Moore family is a traditional and devout Paladin lineage, I can't feel the Goddess's favor from you. You're an alchemist, not a priest, right? Have you ever shown the power of a magic array? "
Reynolds shook his head, he didn't want to lie about this issue. Suddenly, as if his brain was suddenly enlightened, a very good explanation popped out: "Sir, these god-bestowed drinks shouldn't be for me, but for the entire Ice Peak Fortress. Think about it, if it was for me, one can would be enough, there wouldn't be so many. Obviously, the Goddess is praising Icepeak Fortress for its persistence and loyalty for a long time. I might have just happened to come across such a thing. "
The old man nodded and his brows relaxed. "Yes, that should be the case. That's the only reasonable thing to do. However, to be able to meet her at this time, it means that you have some kind of connection with the great goddess. Perhaps you have the potential to become a priest. "
Some kind of connection with the Goddess? It could only be a connection purified by the Goddess. If his soul had not fused with the devil, Reynolds might have even tried to become a servant of the Goddess. To a large extent, this consideration had nothing to do with faith, but rationality. The Truth Thunder Goddess was the largest and only fully recognized god in the world. She had a complete organizational structure and a powerful military force. At the same time, she could also provide healing, blessings, protection, and even resurrection to her believers. Even after death, her soul would have a chance to enter God's kingdom and continue to exist as a petitioner. Why wouldn't he hug such a powerful thigh?
Devils have no future! Can be blown up by a sickly alchemist and attached half-dead to a blue-collar IT technician. Even if they had all kinds of magical abilities, they would still have to hide in the mortal world. They would not be able to move openly and could only hide in a place temporarily out of the sight of the Goddess.
"I'm willing to try …" At this time, Reynolds certainly could not refuse the old man directly, otherwise it would be too suspicious. "However, it's not like I haven't tried when I was learning alchemy. Please don't get your hopes up. "
"Let's try first. It won't hurt you anyway." The old man patted his thigh and then said, "Even if you can't use divine spells, you must be fated with the power of magic. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to activate the power of the divine spell array."
"I'm also very interested in spells that don't involve divine power." Reynolds brought this up again. "You said that you're willing to teach me some knowledge in this area. After all, no matter how much my physical fitness improves, I've missed the best age, so I can't reach Giles' level. With alchemy and magic, I might be able to walk another path. "
"Do you want to learn now? Do you still have extra energy? "the old man asked with a smile.
"I'm tired, very tired. This is not fake. Instructor Giles definitely didn't slack off. Every time after training, I feel like I'm about to die. But your easing potion is very useful, and I'm still alive. Moreover, physical fatigue doesn't affect the mind. Anyway, I still have to meditate. It shouldn't be a problem for me to read some books and do some basic learning. "
"You are very confident! But I still have a question … "The old man's eyes were bright and full of expression, as if he wanted to see through Reynolds' heart. "From your performance in Ice Peak Fortress, I can see that you are humble, friendly, tenacious, intelligent, and now eager to learn. I really can't imagine how someone like you won the title of 'Capital Wanderer Dog'. Don't you have a good reputation in the circle of nobles? "
Reynolds was silent. This was indeed a difficult question to answer, but he had to answer it. With Ice Peak Fortress as the starting point, he could start a new life. He could send Eddie and Giles, who were familiar with him, to go shopping together, but he couldn't prevent his past experiences from being transmitted to Ice Peak Fortress. Sooner or later, such as today, he would have to explain this change.
"I encountered an assassination on the road. I died, or I thought I died once." Reynolds was telling the truth. "I felt my soul leave my body, and I kept falling. I saw hell, I saw the devil, and I also saw people who were controlled and harmed by the devil. I thought back to what I had done, and it was obvious that I was wrong.
"I magically came back to life. Of course, I had to change. The qualities you just praised me for, it's not that I didn't learn them. I understand them, but I didn't practice them. I … I'm not in my nature to some extent, just like an actor playing a role. It's just that I hope the qualities of this good person character can become a part of me.
"Don't worry, child. The world is like this. Seeing an example and then imitating it is not called acting, but learning. From the moment Wah Wah fell to the ground, we have been going through this process. You are doing very well now. Persevere. I think this is why the goddess can show her miracles by your side. "
If the goddess really showed her miracles, it would probably be a strike of divine thunder, right? Reynolds didn't dare to make a move.
