Chapter 206 (1/2)

206 – Fanatic Ian

When he arrived in front of the Weave G.o.ddess Gargarstave’s temple, Yang Feng looked carefully at it before lowering his head and stepping inside.

A young Pastor walked up to Yang Feng and said with a smile: “h.e.l.lo, respected Sir, can I help you?”

“I am a Wizard! I became a Wizard by acquiring the magic notes of a secluded Wizard! In the woods, I’ve been always a believer of the Weave G.o.ddess Gargarstave. This is a token of my sincerity and a tribute to the G.o.ddess, please accept it.”

With the expression of a pious believer plastered on his face, Yang Feng handed the young Pastor a pouch of gold coins.

The G.o.ds had no need for gold. The secular churches, on the other hand, could never get enough of it.

After taking the pouch of gold coins, the young Pastor weighed it and felt very keenly that the number of gold coins inside the pouch exceeded 100. His smile became more enthusiastic: “The mighty G.o.ddess will definitely bless you.”

Yang Feng said: “I hope to pray to the great G.o.ddess inside the temple.”

“Please come with me!” The Pastor naturally wouldn’t decline a believer’s request to pray.

When Yang Feng arrived at the praying room, he quietly started the Crown of Blasphemy, which was completely invisible, he wore on his head.

“Mighty Lady Gargarstave, you are the ruler of the Weave, the G.o.ddess of magic…” In front of the statue of the G.o.ddess, Yang Feng bowed his head and recited a prayer.

Extremely pious spirit fluctuations diffused from Yang Feng’s body.

The statue of the Weave G.o.ddess Gargarstave flashed with divine light. A ray of divine light shot from a lily-white hand of the statue and landed on Yang Feng.

The Pastor was stunned, he couldn’t believe his eyes: “Divine grace! A fanatic, he’s actually a fanatic!!”

In the Feisuo Plane, everyone had to have faith and believe in some G.o.d.

Believers were divided into six grades: non believer, pseudo believer, shallow believer, true believer, fanatic, and saint. The vast majority of people were either pseudo believers or shallow believers. True believers and fanatics were very few in numbers. Only among people fostered by the churches would there be a very large percentage of true believers and fanatics. A true believer was enough to become a church’s Pastor.

Although Wizards believed in the Weave G.o.ddess Gargarstave, but many of them also pursued knowledge and truth. Most Wizards were pseudo believers or shallow believers. The number of true believers was very small and the number of true believers who were bestowed divine grace by the Weave G.o.ddess Gargarstave was even smaller.

“The divine power of the mighty Weave G.o.ddess Gargarstave is boundless. Even a Wizard from the woods was inspired by her mighty divine power. This is a miracle, a divine blessing. This man is destined to be extraordinary!”

A middle-aged man dressed in a Bishop’s gown appeared from the side.

His eyes brimmed with complicated emotions as he looked at Yang Feng shrouded in divine light, and he sighed.

After Yang Feng finished his prayer, the divine light shrouding him also dissipated.

The Bishop walked up to Yang Feng and said: “h.e.l.lo, young man, my name is Edo and I am the Bishop of this temple. Was it divine guidance that brought you to this temple?”

Yang Feng said with a pious and respectful expression: “Yes! Respected Bishop Edo, my name is Ian.

I was inspired by the mighty Weave G.o.ddess Gargarstave to come here, to purchase slaves, and then got to the Red Earth Wasteland to establish a city and spread the Weave G.o.ddess Gargarstave’s glory. I came here to pray to the great G.o.ddess, on one hand, and to apply for an examination of my magic power, on the other hand. Besides, the most important reason I came here is in hopes that the temple can send a Bishop to the Red Earth Wasteland to build a temple belonging to the mighty G.o.ddess and spread the mighty G.o.ddess’ divine light!”

In the Feisuo Plane, every city had to have a temple at least. Just like in the Great Cloud Dynasty, every city had to have a Warlock Tower at least.

A city without a temple not only couldn’t receive divine protection, but it would also be regarded as heresy and would suffer military suppression from the nearby forces.

If Yang Feng wanted to build a city in the Red Earth Wasteland, then he had to also erect a temple. After careful considerations, he chose the neutral Weave G.o.ddess Gargarstave. With his Wizard ident.i.ty on the Feisuo Plane, it was normal to be close to the Weave G.o.ddess Gargarstave.

Edo's expression turned awkward upon listening to Yang Feng's request.

The Red Earth Wasteland was a forsaken land without any resources. That place only had filthy and ugly goblins, bugbears, ogres, and the like. No Pastor or Bishop would go there to preach.

Although the Weave G.o.ddess didn’t restrict the race of her believers, however, beastmen, elves, as well as other races capable of grasping magic power had their own G.o.ds. Besides, goblins and bugbears, who didn’t comprehend magic, had no preaching value when it came to the Weave G.o.ddess.

Edo said: “Ian, from the light of the divine grace that the mighty G.o.ddess bestowed upon you, I confirmed that you have the strength of a Great Wizard. I’ll give you the magic crest later.”
