The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 258 Shapeshifters and Blasphemy Priests

When Su uttered the word shapeshifter in the ancient Gamore language, Leo also found the relevant content in the data in his mind, and couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Haven't they already exterminated their race?"

Su thought of the shapeshifters who had encountered similarities with the witches, and couldn't help but feel emotional, and said, "Mister is the last one to slip through the net, and also the deepest hidden shapeshifter, otherwise how could he become the last of the God of Darkness?" Where's the divine family!"

In a book written by members of the Heterogenetic Society, the ancient and modern races of Velen, the shapeshifters, an ancient race of Velen, are recorded. According to the book, shapeshifters are a natural variation of humans in the Velen world, which is different from the mutated family members affected by divine power. Although shapeshifters have mutated into another ethnic group, most of their appearance and body Organs are still no different from humans, and even some shapeshifters don't know their true identities.

Before the appearance of witches, shapeshifters were heresies of all the churches in Velen World. All the churches mentioned here include those churches of righteous gods recognized by all countries, and those churches of evil gods hiding in the dark. In this regard, they The situation of the witch is much worse than that of the witch.

The reason why shapeshifters have become heresies recognized by all churches is because all shapeshifters are born blasphemy priests. They can pretend to be priests of any church, communicate with the gods without any flaws, and steal divine power.

When the development of shapeshifters was at its peak, more than half of the senior clergy in the Orthodox Church were shapeshifters, and there were even more shapeshifters in the Evil God Church.

One day, two opposing religious forces, the Orthodox Church and the Evil God Church, launched an attack at the same time, clearing out all the shapeshifters in their respective churches who were not aware of the danger at all, and executed them one by one.

From the cleaning process recorded in the book, it can be felt that the gods may be behind this matter, because the real clergy of the righteous and evil churches seem to have the ability to identify who is a shapeshifter, and they can easily find them from among the clergy of the church. There were no hidden shapeshifters, not a single fish slipped through the net.

Afterwards, for nearly a hundred years, the righteous and evil churches still spared no effort to hunt down the shapeshifters. It was not until more than a dozen churches, including the Lord of the Sky and the King of the Hill, jointly announced that the shapeshifters had been completely eradicated. It finally ended until the appearance of the witch, who replaced the shapeshifter and became the new heresy hunter.

As Su said, if Mister is really a shape-shifter, then the invisible power emanating from the abyss will not affect him in any way, because even in front of real gods, shape-shifters can still be unaffected He used all kinds of disguises, not to mention the remnant of an eagle god.

However, compared to Mister's identity as a shapeshifter, Leo is more interested in the divine family of the God of Darkness that Su said.

Among those family members, the status of the divine family members is absolutely supreme. Some of them even surpass the highest priests such as the high priest, the pope, and even high-ranking priests of the church, because they are all the incarnations of gods. When the gods come to Velen , will choose to possess the divine family.

Although the God of Darkness is a true deity recorded by the Orthodox Church, whether this deity really exists has always been a mystery, because this deity has never appeared in front of people, and there is no church, let alone priests, priests, etc. Personnel, the only thing they have is the family members, and the number of family members is still very large, and there are more than 50 types, far exceeding the family members of any kind of god.

However, when the gods are gradually disappearing, the God of Darkness is also the first to disappear. The most obvious feature is that almost all of his family members have mutated in just a few years, and it is a malignant mutation, and eventually mutated They became groups of irrational monsters, hunted down by churches and night watchmen.

According to a history of the decline and demise of the gods that has been banned by the Heterogenetic Society, although the bodies of the families of the dark gods have mutated, they do not have any supernatural power that the families should have, and their physical strength is only higher than that of ordinary people. People are stronger, and the power given by the gods such as magic spells does not exist.

But such a dark god who has never given any divine power to his believers and family members has a divine family member, which is strange no matter how you look at it. You must know that creating a divine family requires dividing the divinity of the gods. This is much more difficult than giving believers divine power and magic, and the damage to the gods is also very large, so the gods will not easily create divine family members.

"Your goal should be the god of darkness in that family member?" Leo asked while thinking in his mind.

"Not bad!" Su admitted Leo's conjecture unexpectedly, and added: "Not only the divinity, but also the heart of the shapeshifter, I am also very interested."

"Heart?" Su's words made Leo stop involuntarily, turned his head to look at Su, and said in a deep voice, "You want to become a priest of blasphemy?"

According to the book of the Encyclopedia of Races, the only use of the shapeshifter's heart is to turn an ordinary priest into a blasphemous priest, but it didn't describe how to do it in that book.

"Yes!" Su nodded and admitted again, and said in a very profound way: "Now it's different from the ancient times, maybe the clergy of those churches are more willing to see a blasphemy priest appear to bring them the gospel of God. "

Leo thought about Su's words for a while, and quickly understood what she meant. He nodded slightly, turned around, and continued to walk forward without further entanglement on this issue.

Just like what Su said, the present is different from the ancient times. If it was in the era when the gods appeared, anything related to a profane priest would be extremely dangerous, let alone become a profane priest.

But now that the gods have disappeared from the world of Velen, even the clergy in the Orthodox Church, how many people really believe in the gods, and how many people completely follow the dogmas of heresy punishment.

If there are church leaders who completely follow heretical dogmas, it is impossible for Sylvia, who is also a witch of the witch group, to become a leader of the Orthodox Church, to freely enter and leave the temples and temples of various churches, and even call the church's Some manpower and material resources.

Now, for the vast majority of churches within the Orthodox Church, the biggest problem is not the heresy that has been hated by the church since ancient times, but the disappearance of the gods. It created a vicious circle that led the church step by step into the bottomless abyss.

At this time, if someone can prove that the churches whose gods are no longer able to respond to the prayers of believers are still bathed in the glory of the gods, it will undoubtedly be a life-saving booster for those churches that are about to die out.

The act of blasphemy priests stealing divine power may be blasphemy against the gods, but the ability of blasphemy priests to perceive and capture the divine power of gods is unmatched by regular priests, priests, and priests. He is the only person who can perceive whether the gods have really disappeared, and those extinct churches are also happy to see heresies like blasphemy priests appear, this is where Su's confidence lies.

Su, who started planning this matter a long time ago, was also a little surprised that Leo was able to figure out her reliance so quickly. She didn't think that Leo was pretending to understand, but the thinking ability shown by Leo It also made her interested in Leo's identity again.

Su, who has been wandering around the various forces in the dark world all year round, is very clear that such an outstanding and powerful person does not exist among those forces, so she quickly excluded the well-known strong men from those forces. Thinking about those lone travelers who are slightly famous in the dark world, and soon these people were also ruled out, because absolutely none of those solo travelers can compare with this person in front of him.

"Did it appear only recently?" Su looked at Leo's back, and quickly noticed the obvious military behavior characteristics on Leo, such as marching steps, military temperament, etc. These military characteristics made her unable to help. I thought of a character who was slightly famous in the dark world of Miria City a few years ago, but disappeared soon. The reason why she noticed this inconspicuous figure when she was still in the Mossan Continent was mainly because one of them was old Maupassant from the Odd Story Society, and the other was Sylvia, one of her enemies in the Witch Squad. .

Thinking of this, Su quickly walked to Leo's side, watched Leo's expression, and said, "Are you Leo Dodd from the Kingdom of England?"

Su guessed his identity suddenly, and didn't make Leo pay too much attention to it. Although he didn't want to cause trouble because of Sylvia, the situation is a little different now. Su can now clearly distinguish the priorities of the matter. No matter how bad the relationship with Sylvia was, he probably wouldn't vent his anger on him as a temporary collaborator at this time, so it wouldn't be a big deal if his identity was debunked.

Leo who wanted to understand this looked at Su calmly, and said, "Yes, I am Leo Dodd."

Seeing Leo admit his identity frankly, Su was slightly surprised, then smiled, and said in a slightly teasing tone: "You are really amazing! I have never seen Sylvia before. You will be so concerned about a person’s safety, that you will even take out some good things and ask the sisters in the witch troupe to divination about your life and death, you must know that she never believes in divination.”

Hearing Su's words, the image of Sylvia involuntarily appeared in Leo's mind, and at the same time, there was an inexplicable warmth in his heart that he had never felt before. The emotions that had appeared before, even involuntarily showed a gentle smile that had never been seen before on his face, but he couldn't see it himself.

However, the gentle smile on Leo's resolute and cold face was seen by Su, who was paying attention to the other party's expression. Seeing the meaning behind this smile, Su couldn't help feeling an inexplicable jealousy towards Sylvia.

With this slight jealousy, Su Leng snorted, stepped back behind Leo, and silently stepped on Leo's footsteps.

Su's displeasure was very obvious. Leo just regarded it as a normal reaction caused by Su and Sylvia's years of enmity, so he didn't care. He was only concerned about Su's next behavior.

After walking a certain distance, Leo broke the silence around him, and suddenly asked Su who was behind him: "Aren't you interested in the secret of No. 9 Golden Oak Street?"

Facing this question, Su quickly asked back: "Why should I be interested in the secrets of No. 9 Golden Oak Street?"

Hearing the answer, Leo froze for a moment, then smiled self-deprecatingly. He realized that he was indeed thinking too much, the secret of No. 9 Golden Oak Street was indeed a bit astonishing, and its value was also great, but just like what Su showed, not everyone was interested in this secret.

In this slightly awkward atmosphere, the two walked for a while, when the fleeing team in front stopped, as if they were resting on the spot and recovering their strength, the two of them also stopped.

Perhaps Su couldn't bear this silent atmosphere, she took the initiative to say: "I have a way to find out the divine family of the God of Darkness from among those refugees, but I need your cooperation."

"How to cooperate?" Leo asked.

Su asked directly: "First of all, I need to know what is this force that affects us?"

Leo was silent for a while, and said: "Under the abyss should be the remnant of the Eagle God."

"The God of the Eagle? What God of the Eagle?" Su obviously didn't know much about the gods. He didn't even know who the God of the Eagle was that Leo was talking about.

"It's the Lord of the Sky." Leo explained, "To be more accurate, it is the predecessor of the Lord of the Sky."

As he spoke, he told Su about the God of the Eagle and some of the mysteries of the gods that the Web Weaver had told him, and Su was astonished when he heard it.

Until Leo finished speaking, Su still didn't recover from what he heard. After all, it involved the Lord of the Sky, a god who could still show glory in the world of Velen. After a while, she said to Leo with an inexplicable emotion: "I suddenly feel that Mister's heart is still suitable for you."

There is no doubt that the subtext of this sentence is to indicate that Leo is more suitable to be a blasphemy priest than she is.

Leo ignored Su's ridicule, but looked at Su in a gesture, waiting for her next conversation.

Su also quickly adjusted his emotions, pondered for a moment, and said: "Since the remnant body of the Eagle God is under the abyss, the power affecting us now should be the remaining divine power of the Eagle God. It has a great influence, our strength is probably not even average, but Mist, who is a shapeshifter, can not be affected by anything, and can even use the divine power here."

Following Su's words, Leo analyzed: "According to what you said, if Mister really wants to use the fleeing team to do something, he will definitely do it here..."

Su interrupted Leo's words, shook his head, and said with certainty: "No, he will definitely not do anything here, so neither we nor the fleeing team are safe."
