Chapter 862: The Church of Light Has Split
Negris lay bored on the windowsill, watching the energetic students downstairs playing and fighting with each other, feeling both envious and jealous in his heart, and couldn't help but mutter: "Damn Xiao Gu, throwing me away and running off. If I had known, I wouldn't have brought him out."
Ever since Xiao Gu ran away, as a Book of Yellow Mud, Negris had no way to move on his own. If he didn't want to be caught and stuffed into a library, he could only follow Ninova's group, first return to the Magic Academy, and then find a way to find Xiao Gu or Anthony. Without anyone carrying him, he couldn't do anything.
Once Xiao Gu ran, there was no trace. Negris simply didn't know how to find him. Should he go to the Mercenary Guild to post a task, looking for a skeleton named Xiao Gu?
Unable to find Xiao Gu, he could only find Anthony first. At least Anthony still had clues to find. Finding the Church of Light, there was a possibility of getting in touch with Anthony.
However, after proposing this request, Ninova's group said somewhat distressed: "Okay, I'll look for you, but I don't know if I can find it."
At first, Negris didn't understand what it meant. He didn't expect that once Ninova left, there was no trace. Half a month had passed, and she hadn't appeared. Could it be that she also ran away?
Just as he was lost in wild thoughts, the room door was suddenly pushed open cautiously. A female mage slipped in, carefully closed the door, and then lowered her voice and shouted: "Lord Negris, Lord God of Knowledge, are you there?"
"I'm here. What are you looking for me for?" Negris recognized that this was the female mage in Ninova's adventure team, called something like Boris.
"Oh, Lord God of Knowledge, you are here. That's great." Boris walked quickly to Negris, took out several thick, large books from her bag, and said in a low voice: "Didn't you say you wanted to find information about the Church of Light last time? I found it for you."
Negris said inexplicably: "You found it, so you found it. Why are you acting like a thief?"
Boris's little face flushed, and she said coyly: "How did you know I was acting like a thief? I stole it. Look quickly, I have to return it after reading."
"Pfft, this thing still needs to be stolen? You weren't discovered, were you?" Negris spat blood, condensed his phantom, and flipped through the books before him quickly.
Boris muttered dissatisfiedly: "Read it seriously. I had a hard time stealing it out. What can you see by flipping like this?"
"This is the Wave Reading Method. You wouldn't understand even if I told you. Pfft—the Church of Light has split!?" Negris couldn't help but want to spit blood before he finished speaking.
The Church of Light had actually split, splitting into the Fundamentalist Church of Light, the Holy Church, and the Holy Light Society.
The Church of Light was the Fundamentalist faction, following the most primitive doctrines, requiring believers to endure hardship and work hard, be diligent and thrifty, support themselves, be willing to help others, and plant vegetables.
Negris spat blood. This was some fundamentalism; this was clearly asceticism. As for planting vegetables, it must have been added by Ang.
The Holy Church was more in line with the standards of the former Church of Light, full of light and holiness, but in reality, it was rotten to the core. There were not many ascetic standards in the doctrine, making it more suitable for ordinary people to follow.
As for the Holy Light Society, it was a worldly faction, believing that light was a guide built on ordinary people. Clerics needed to integrate into ordinary people to find true light.
If you don't look from the perspective of ordinary people, the light you see might not be light, but a scorching sun that burns everything.
Seeing this, Negris frowned, feeling a bit strange.
Thus, the Holy Light Society integrated into the entire human world, becoming officials, organizers, merchant association elites, or practitioners in various industries, trying to find what kind of light was in line with humans.
The Church of Light split into three factions like this. Among them, the Fundamentalist Church of Light almost disappeared because their doctrine was too harsh, simply the standard of ascetics. Ordinary people couldn't endure it at all. Either they turned to the Holy Church, or they became apostates or heretics.
"Ang is really something. Can doctrine be messed around with like this? And planting vegetables? Plant his big head." Negris muttered.
Boris was stunned: "You really finished reading it? Is the Wave Reading Method so powerful? Is the Ang you mentioned the one..."
Speaking of this, Boris took a deep breath: "The Co-Lord of the Dark Origin and the Abyss Origin, the King of all Ancient Gods of the Void, the Master of Knowledge, Planting, Harvest and Beauty, Equality and Justice, War and Peace... the Master of Divine Power, the Reverser of Void Laws... Time Origin, Ang?"
Negris was dumbfounded: "This stinky shameless guy, he gave himself such a long title!"
Boris's eyes sparkled, and she asked excitedly: "Is it really him? Lord God of Knowledge, can you help me introduce Ang Origin?"
If Negris hadn't been brought out of the Forbidden Land of Gods by them personally, Boris wouldn't have had such an absurd thought.
"That's not easy. You go out and bask in the sun for a while, and he can see you through." Negris complained impatiently.
Boris didn't understand what it meant, thinking her request was too abrupt, and Negris was unwilling, so she didn't dare to ask anymore, turning to say: "Then Lord Negris, can you teach me the Wave Reading Method?"
"Want to learn? No problem, I'll teach you. But I'm tired of staying here. You take me to your place." Negris said.
"Ah, that's not good, right? It's inconvenient. Changing clothes or something will be seen through by you." Boris said.
Negris looked her up and down, his will penetrated her clothes, scanned her whole body, and said: "I have already seen you through now, so it won't be inconvenient in the future."
Boris was stunned for a long time before nodding and saying: "That makes so much sense. Okay, but you have to teach me the Wave Reading Method. Also, I can ask you anything I don't understand."
"Fine, fine, fine, no problem. But you tell me first, which faction do you believe in here? The Holy Church or the Holy Light Society?" Negris asked.
Boris looked at him inexplicably: "We believe in you here. Knowledge is power. We are all believers of the God of Knowledge."
Negris looked at her suspiciously. They all believe in the God of Knowledge, so why can't he feel the faith energy? Could it be because he didn't condense a godhead? The mark before was just a mark, not a godhead.
The Starburst Formation doesn't believe in light, so where should he go to find Anthony? Negris couldn't help but have a headache.
Aemil wolfed down a breadfruit, eating while saying incredibly: "It's really the taste of bread. How magical. Why are there such magical fruits?"
Xiao Gu said: "Planted."
In the Forbidden Land of Gods, what was planted the most were breadfruit trees, jujube trees, divine trees, divine flowers, etc. As long as it was edible, Xiao Gu planted it, and then habitually picked some to carry on his body, leaving them as seeds.
Unfortunately, the desert climate wasn't very suitable for planting breadfruit trees. Jujube trees were suitable, but there was a new variety like sea buckthorn. Xiao Gu wanted to play with the new variety first, and after playing with it, he would choose the most suitable one to plant.
Adams asked: "Why are you here? It looks like you haven't eaten or drunk for many days. What happened?"
Aemil looked at the bone club beside Xiao Gu. He heard the voice coming from there, but Xiao Gu didn't introduce it, and he didn't dare to ask, so he could only say:
"I was originally going to the Black Soil Village to conduct an arbitration, but halfway there, the front leg bone of my bone horse broke. I could only walk there, but as I walked, the water was drunk up, the food was eaten up, and I lost my way. Finally, it became like this. Thank you, Lord Scale Knight, for saving my life." ===== CHAPTER 863 =====
