Chapter 66 Is the ceremony like this?

Since Carson Borg has made the plan thoroughly, Linger naturally will not raise any questions. What he needs to do is to provide a real and effective piece of information when the plan is implemented so that the plan can end successfully. But to be honest, the young man is not optimistic now, not because he is doubtful about the plan of the Gray Hill Eagle, but because the amount of information hidden behind this matter made him a little scared.

In the past century of colonial wars, the benefits gained by the Western Continent from overseas cannot be simply measured by numbers. It has shaped the dominance of today's three traditional powers, and has also allowed many unknown small countries to rise up and participate in the cause of dividing this big cake. Nowadays, overseas colonization is a more ordinary thing for politicians, soldiers, merchants and even ordinary people who have equated war with interests. As long as people are still alive, can they stop breathing one day? Of course, it is impossible, so no countries around the dining table can willingly give up this cake and let others enjoy it.

In this case, the Axis countries withdraw front-line troops from the central battlefield to their homelands imply that there are too many things worth pondering. If they did not want to set off an unprecedented war on the Western Continent, young people really couldn't think of anything worth doing if they risked the damage to overseas interests. In comparison, the attitude of the ecclesiastical union is even more ambiguous. As we all know, this organization is nominally a religion, but in fact it is a political and religious consortium that uses religious influence to infiltrate its own power into various fields of politics, military and economy. They manipulate the political situation in the Western Continent through various means, from external expansion wars to internal regime changes, they are guided and mobilized by their tentacles behind it.

Even the development and colonial wars of overseas routes were dominated by the joint forces of the sect. Therefore, the Holy Cult Army can dominate the Axis camp. Fafrona, the commander-in-chief of the Holy Cult Army and the witch of disputes, also legitimately became the commander of this joint force with complex components. Although there are factors of mutual compromise between countries, the power held by the joint forces of the sect is the most critical point. In most cases, the will of the joint forces of the sect is the combat policy of the Axis camp. Now, there is a clear conflict between the two sides. When all countries are withdrawing their troops, only the Holy Cult Army still sticks to the central battlefield, and even in order to maintain the front, they have also drawn the rear troops, resulting in a short-term empty defense line.

Does this highlighting of this contradiction mean that the cooperative relationship between the corps and the Axis countries has begun to break down and the two sides have irreconcilable differences? Linger felt that this was the only possibility, but he could not determine where the differences between the two sides were. First of all, it was impossible to be a disagreement of interests in overseas colonial colonies. This involved a very counterintuitive fact - although the Western Land countries had gained a lot of benefits in the colonial war on the East Continent, the corps and the Holy Cult Army under their jurisdiction were not included. Although they promoted and even dominated the war, they did not establish any colonies overseas, did not sign an agreement with any defeated country, and even did not build any church in a colony that was actually belonged to the Axis countries.

It was as if they had just started this war from the beginning. As long as the war began, other things were no longer important. Therefore, the people who made the cake did not divide the cake, but left it all to the ants and flies behind them who smelled the sweet smell. The only demand of the ecclesiastical union in the colonial war was to firmly hold the command of the joint forces in their hands, but they did not use this power to do anything. They were just thinking about pushing the front forward, and even they had more troops to invest in overseas battlefields than other countries.

Therefore, if it is a political struggle within the coalition, it seems unrealistic, and this kind of political struggle is too fierce and too much fanfare, as if everyone wants to know... Wait?

Suddenly, a flash of lightning broke through the darkness. Linger suddenly remembered something: Queen Victoria II, the current ruler of the Great Breta Kingdom, was a philosopher of the Witch Society. And, according to Queen Victoria, this kind of thing is not uncommon among the Western Land countries. Barbarossa, the red-bearded king of Minderias, and Joan of Arc of the White City Republic, were also philosophers of the Witch Society. Who said that it is not now?

In this case, can we make a guess: this is not a conflict between the sect association and the Western Land countries, but a conflict between the two factions within the witch association?

One of the factions, represented by the rulers of secular regimes such as Queen Victoria, will be called the secular faction; the other faction is not clear, but after the secular faction decides to withdraw its troops, the one who reinforces the forces to the central battlefield is the Saint Clan Army, the commander-in-chief of the Saint Clan Army, and the Saint Clan Army, the Saint Favrona of the Crimson Church. Her other identity is the witch Favrona. Therefore, it is very likely that it is the witch Favrona represented by Tytis. There is an irreconcilable conflict between these two factions, and it is even so serious that it requires wars. Therefore, the rulers of various countries will withdraw their overseas troops one after another to deal with the possible civil strife and war that swept the entire Western continent!

This sounds a bit...unbelievable.

For the first time, Linger had a disconfidence in his reasoning result. Although all facts and arguments conform to the logic behind it, it was the most ridiculous result. It was as ridiculous as if he had seen a cat stop eating and speculating that the world was about to end.

Will the Witch Association and the Western Land Kingdoms really have a complete fall? What is the reason? When did the signs start to be brewing? What are their respective confidences? Of course, these questions cannot be answered through reasoning. After all, Linger is not the detective Sherlock Sherlock Holmes at No. 22B Baker Street. He has his own unique channel to collect intelligence. He thought about it and thought that it would be better not to disclose this to the Gray Hill Eagle. Go back and discuss it with your companions first and listen to their opinions.

After making up his mind, Linger offered goodbye to Carson Borg, who did not try to keep him. He needed to arrange follow-up matters and formulate a next plan. Fate had given them too much preferential treatment, but time was still not friendly to the newly established alliance. He had to race against time to seize every fleeting opportunity.

Before leaving, he mentioned something to Linger.

"Mitch and the others performed well in this action," he said. "If nothing unexpected happens, they will participate in the action. But I will try to leave time for them to rest. If they still want to go to Tianxin Church to listen to the preaching, you will be more responsible, Mr. Linger."

Linger nodded slightly and agreed to his request. The man turned around and walked towards the center of the camp, where a huge bonfire was burning. Some of the backbone members of the Ashes Guerrilla, including Regina, were waiting for their leaders to show everyone the next path. This was the responsibility, and compared with that, Linger felt that as an ally, he only needed some supplies and intelligence, it was quite easy.

However, responsibility always changes with time and destiny. If Carson Borg's expectations become a reality, the Kingdom really dispatches troops to support the resistance of Gray Hill and launches a war to recover the Anthers area, the young people's promise to the Gray Hill Eagle will be fulfilled. There is a knight on Yunjingkong Island who wipes his spear day and night and sharpens his sharpness in his heart, just to end all the battle and sadness with his own hands in an upcoming decisive battle.

Even at the expense of it.

He looked in that direction for a long time before he looked back and walked along the way he had always been.

...

Metien waved goodbye to his friend, then turned around and ran to his brother with a small medical box. She was lying on top of her head, and Leticia was following her. The girl huffed to Linge, stood there, and after gasping for a while, she raised her red face, and her eyebrows and eyes were bent into crescents: "Okay, let's go back, Linge."

Although the girl is cheerful and optimistic most of the time, she always has a smile on her face, but it is the first time she is so happy like today. Linger couldn't help but look at her for a few more times and asked, "What's a good thing happened, Metien?"

"kindness!"

Metien pointed his head vigorously: "Cadora said that she would come to Tianxin Church tomorrow to attend the baptism ceremony, and officially become a believer of the goddess, and Miche and the others would come to watch the ceremony!"

I see.

Her own efforts finally achieved results, her father's last wish was finally inherited, and the faith of the gods finally ushered in a day of revival. All the signs of hope are growing, and the wishes that she has been longing for are fulfilling. No wonder she is so happy.

Ringer nodded slightly and said, "Then you have to work hard, Mettyn."

"Hey, Linger, don't you-"The girl was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Linger was no longer the pastor of Tianxin Church. In this way, wouldn't the person who presided over the baptism ceremony tomorrow become himself?

She was just celebrating happiness, but she never thought about such a thing.

Metien couldn't help frowning. It was not that she was unwilling to preside over the ceremony, but that it involved a very serious question. She asked her brother cautiously and carefully: "Why do you want to do the baptism ceremony in Linger, Tianxin Church?"

Yes, she didn't know at all.

Although she has been following her adoptive father and brother to help in the church since she was a child, she is strictly speaking, the most familiar ritual process is just a seven-day ceremony held once a week. As for the baptism ceremony, I think she hasn't even been there once.

For this question, Linger's answer was simple and calm: "I don't know."

Suddenly, the three of them looked at him with a strange look, wondering whether this guy was overwhelmed by a green-haired shepherd girl, otherwise how could he blurt out such words. Letticia was even more out of her mind and opened her mouth and squirted: "Are you a fool? As the priest of Tianxin Church, you don't even know such things? No wonder she was replaced by Metien. I think it's worthy of sin!"

As for Metien, she didn't know about this, so she subconsciously ignored it. Also, the four words "Sin deserve it" are not used in this way.

The young man looked at the little bat who was proud of the big fool Linger because he was standing on the moral high ground. After thinking about it, he still didn't refute it. He was mainly afraid that she would be serious. If he was refuted by himself, he would suddenly jump over and bite him. He explained to his sister directly: "Because Mr. Yang Ke and I have never held a similar ceremony when they presided over the church."

The so-called baptism ceremony is nothing more than a process of faith conversion, which deepens the sense of belonging of believers through sacred and solemn rituals. Generally speaking, it is a means that only large religious groups will take; or the identity of the baptist is too noble and does not apply to the general process. Unfortunately, the above two conditions are not met by the Tianxin Church. Although the Holy Goddess Church has a long history, it has no foundation, and no noble people are willing to entrust their faith to such a church with a vast but nameless doctrine. Even the residents of the same block occasionally come to Tianxin Church to pray and listen to preach, they are not considered pious believers.

Metien probably heard from the truth, thinking that every church has a formal baptism process. But in most cases, the church recognizes the identity of believers or the belonging of faith is just a verbal statement, and no one will be serious. Even if the baptism ceremony is held, will the baptism be devout?

Linger did not say his thoughts, for fear of damaging his sister's enthusiasm. He thought for a while and said, "Although there is no precedent, you don't have to take it seriously. It is also a good idea to set this precedent. So, it's up to you to decide how to hold this baptism ceremony, Metien. Of course, if you really can't come up with an idea, you can refer to other people's opinions, such as Sister Livia and-"

"With me!" The traveler fairy lying on the girl's head shouted arrogantly: "I am best at this kind of thing! Since it is a ceremony, it must be very lively! We have to invite the hotel potted orchestra and let them play music at the ceremony, which must be very lively! Yes, fireworks are set off to celebrate, delicious food and snacks, and...

Listening to Xie Mi's description, Leticia wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth and pointed out seriously: "You can have both food and snacks, but you can't have too many vegetables. Well, I prefer blueberry butter cakes recently."

Do you think this is a banquet?

Linger was speechless, but Metien pinched his chin and thoughtfully: "It sounds...it seems good too?"

this……

Young people can no longer imagine what kind of expression would be like when Cardora came to receive baptism tomorrow - but since he placed the game console as a goddess's holy weapon in the church and asked Metien to take everyone to play together, then, using a banquet to replace the ceremony may be quite in line with the style of this church?
