Papa Paladin

Most of the houses here are made of stone. The stone is also collected from Mount Saint-Louis, but the colors are brown, dark brown and light gray. The craftsmen of Saint Delin skillfully piece together various religious patterns, which can be called this A major feature of a country within a country.

   There are many shops along the street. It is said that all the properties here belong to the Cross Church, and most of the proceeds from the sale of items are invested in the construction fund of the Holy Flame Cathedral.

  So believers who come here for pilgrimage will often donate generously and buy a large number of holy symbols, holy ornaments, holy food and so on.

  And every street in San Delin leads to the Holy Flame Cathedral located in the center of the city.

  Since the area of ​​San Delin is only 1.25 square kilometers, it only takes about ten minutes to walk to this world-famous temple church.

  The Holy Flame Cathedral currently covers an area of ​​more than 50,000 square meters and can accommodate more than 100,000 people. The Pope who presides over the Church of the Cross holds various ceremonies here regularly every year, and tens of thousands of people participate.

   It is worth mentioning that tourists do not need to buy tickets to visit the Holy Flame Cathedral, but there is an offering box at the entrance, which is the same as the merit box in the Daxia Temple to receive offerings from believers.

  Many tourists are not believers, but they will also put a few banknotes in the offering box to express their respect for the church.

   When Zuo Yi followed the crowd into the cathedral, he dropped a stack of dollar bills into the offering box.

  Of course he is not a believer, but he has gained a lot recently, and this dollar is not even a drop in the bucket.

   It\'s a small respect.

  Beside the offering box stood a black-robed priest, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

  His eyes were sharp, and he saw that the dollar bills that Zuo Yi had just put into the offering box were in denominations of one hundred yuan, and this stack was worth ten thousand dollars.

  Although the Cross Church receives hundreds of millions of offerings from believers every year, it is really rare for tourists like Zuo Yi who don\'t look like believers to throw out 10,000 dollars.

"gentlemen."

  The black-robed priest took two steps forward and said politely to Zuo Yi: "Thank you for your generosity, this gift from the Lord is for you."

   As he spoke, he handed Zuo Yi a silver cross.

  Zuo Yi originally wanted to decline, because he is not a believer in Christianity, but his eyes swept over the cross in the hands of the black-robed priest, and he couldn\'t help but feel moved.

"thanks."

   Zuo Yi took it.

  The black-robed priest showed a warm smile: "May the Lord protect you."

  Zuo Yi smiled.

  Even if Blue Star World really has a "lord", it is not qualified to protect him.

  But the cross given to him by the black-robed priest is very interesting, and there is actually a very weak power of faith condensed on it.

  The level of this power of faith is very low, so it has no practical use. It is similar to "consecration", and may have the effect of "exorcism". Zuo Yi took it purely out of curiosity.

   As a visitor, a true knight, he will not speak arrogantly or behave in other people\'s turf.

   Zuo Yi who came here today is just a tourist who wants to fulfill his old wishes.

  The interior of the Holy Flame Cathedral is resplendent and luxurious. Its main hall is a dome with a diameter of more than 60 meters and a ceiling height of 180 meters. It is a miracle in ancient architecture.

The walls around the main hall are painted with extremely exquisite murals, many of which are inlaid with gemstones of various colors. When the sunlight shines on the 125.75-meter-high statue of the Father through the crystal glass of the dome, the diffuse light and countless gemstones complement each other. .

   It seems like a miracle.

   It is said that for thousands of years, nearly a hundred tons of gold have been used to decorate the Holy Flame Cathedral, and the amount of silver and brass is even greater. There are millions of gemstones, large and small, which is really extremely deep.

   In addition, there are countless art treasures displayed in the Holy Flame Cathedral.

The effect of throwing money at all costs and costs is undoubtedly amazing. Basically, all the tourists who came to this temple were shocked, and those believers who came to the pilgrimage knelt down before the heavenly father. Like before, pray devoutly.

   Zuo Yi was also a little surprised.

   What surprised him was not the luxury of the Holy Flame Cathedral and the grandeur of the Father\'s statue, but the massive power of faith condensed on this 100-meter-high statue.

Although this kind of vow, which comes from the devout faith of the believers, is not the same as Zuo Yi\'s virtue belief, the qualitative change brought about by the quantitative change makes this statue have the attributes similar to the creation of the law, and creates a special atmosphere field.

  The Godfather statue continuously exudes a breath of faith that covers the entire hall, silently affecting those who enter it.

  Compassion, peace, compassion, joy, piety...

Although Zuo Yi is completely unaffected, in his perception, this statue is perfectly integrated with the Holy Flame Cathedral. It is the center point of the entire Sandelin, and its role is not just to serve as a worship representative for believers .

  If you regard Sandelin as a magic circle, then the statue of the Father is the center and eye of the magic circle.

  The person who designed it back then must be an extraordinary person!

  Zuo Yi stood in front of the statue of the Father for a few minutes, then turned around to leave.

   Originally, Zuo Yi wanted to use the spiritual network to perceive the existence of the World Stone, but he didn\'t get anything. Although the statue of the Father is magical, it is not enough to make him linger.

"what!"

"Oh, God!"

   "My Lord\'s favor!"

  At this time, the tourists and believers who visited around suddenly made noises, and there was a commotion in the crowd.

Zuo Yi felt a sudden sensation in his heart, he couldn\'t help turning around to look, and saw an old man wearing a white gold-rimmed robe, a gold crown on his head, and a golden scepter in his hand walking through the golden archway tens of meters away. out.

Dozens of red robes, purple robes and black robes surrounded this imposing white-robed old man like stars and the moon. The tourists and believers who stood in front of him gave way one after another. Many believers knelt on the spot with great excitement. down!

  Because this old man in white robe is the contemporary Pope Moses!

  For believers, being able to see Moses with their own eyes is like winning a million-dollar jackpot.

  Because the Pope only appears in the Holy Flame Cathedral on Christmas Day or Coronation Day every year, the Pope or the red-robed archbishop usually presides over church ceremonies.

   But this does not detract from the prestige of this legendary figure. In fact, he should be the most familiar extraordinary person in the world. Countless believers put his portrait alongside the Heavenly Father\'s portrait together to enshrine.

  Who would have thought that the Pope would appear in the hall on such an ordinary day!

   Leading a group of bishops and archbishops, Moses walked straight towards Zuo Yi with a faint smile on his face.
