Mysterious as the wind, always with me

Chapter 77 Fate is sometimes a circle (4 more)
The headquarters of the Church of Light and Night is located on a hill east of Wright City, the capital of the Wright Empire. Sitting on the mountain and looking at the sea, the scenery is already superb.

A nearly thousand-level staircase hangs down from the top of the mountain. According to legend, there are a total of 999 levels.

Its color is also very meaningful.

Because the stairs are made of dark black ink jade and white marble similar to white marble.

On both sides of the long ladder, there are also innumerable statues made of marble. The statues of the gods who have made great contributions to the Church of Light and Night stand here.

The long ladder connects the temples on the top of the mountain. From the bottom of the mountain, it becomes thinner and thinner as it goes up in the field of vision, and finally becomes a long straight, black and white line.

It's just that Mark looks, suddenly feels a bit like a cobra?

Before coming here, Mark had another daydream in a daze.

Same nightmare, same loss.If he hadn't prepared a large amount of psychic matter decomposed from the demon general on the ship, the lack of psychic matter alone would have caused him to die suddenly before he came here.

【Mechanical Ascension】Helena was placed in the exclusive pier of Mechanicus, and Conrad stayed on board.

Ma Keming took Helena to the foot of the mountain.

There are also two churches of light and night standing side by side at the foot of the mountain. No matter which church is, it has an exaggerated size of 40 meters long, 50 meters wide and [-] meters high. It is for ordinary people to worship.

When the two of Mark walked towards the mountain road, their unusual style of painting immediately attracted the attention of the guards.

[Mystic Scholar] has already become a sensitive word in the repeated orders of the high-level church.

It's not that it's bad, but that once the guards encounter it, they must receive it grandly.

When Mark appeared in the square in front of the stairs wearing a black robe exclusive to occultists and a six-pointed star emblem, a group of three knights trotted towards them immediately.

Their arrival did not stimulate the nerves of the other believers too much.After all, they were wearing white gowns embroidered with gold, no armor, but a rapier that was more used in ceremonial occasions.

The three knights bowed slightly and saluted. The etiquette alone was impeccable. The handsome young knight who took the lead said, "Hello! Dear occultist, I am Algerham. It is my pleasure to serve you. Excuse me. Your Excellency is coming to the Great Church, is there anything important?"

"Hello! I'm Carbine* Cthulhu, and I came to the Great Temple of the Night by appointment." When Mark spoke, his heart was actually twitching crazily.I always feel that this is another social death experience.

He vowed not to use such a nonsense pseudonym next time, even if he used a pseudonym like [All good names are taken by dogs].What's more, there is no guarantee that this world can really connect with the [Old Lord], and he always calls the old man Cthulhu by his god name. If the old man really travels through time and space to beat him, then he will go crazy.

Well, crazy in every sense of the word.

At this time, the faces of the three showed the subtle expressions of winning the jackpot. This time, it was the three knights who bowed and saluted together: "Your Excellency, we have been waiting for you for a long time."

Mark expected that the other party would attach great importance to him, but he never thought that it would be so important.

The knight named Alger made a gesture far away that outsiders could not understand, and the atmosphere of the entire square suddenly changed.

From several guardhouses around the square, figures turned into black streamers and shot out.

Many tourists who were sightseeing were blinded, and found that there were more night guards wearing uniforms with black background and gold trim around them.

The epaulettes on their left shoulders were rather broad, and a short black cloak hung down over them, covering them up to the elbow of the left hand.

As soon as these night guards appeared, they began to disperse the crowd.

"Ms. Heiye's VIP is here. Please evacuate those who are irrelevant. Thank you for your cooperation." With stern expressions, they drove away tourists and troublemakers.

Of course, this inevitably cast curious eyes from passers-by from afar.

In just one or two minutes, from the front of Mark to the stairs, not only the crowd dispersed, but also an exaggerated carpet over 2 meters in length and five meters in width.

Another house has a red carpet, while Everest's has a black carpet.

The rug appeared almost out of thin air.Mark didn't react, and it floated out of the ground of the square by itself.

Under Alger's guidance, Mark stepped on the carpet, giving him the illusion that he was stepping on black velvet.

Twelve night guards stood guard on both sides of the end of the carpet in full armor. They held a long-barreled revolver in their right hand and a short sword about 40 cm long in their left hand. They faced each other with the short sword facing the sky at 45 degrees. Lift to form the classic 'Jianmen'.

When Mark walked Helena with him, he raised his daggers upwards to show that he opened the door to welcome guests.

At the end of the carpet was a middle-aged judge of light standing with his hands behind his back.

The knight Alger just now completed the handover here.

The judge in front of him had a well-combed back hair, and a face with gentle lines and a very friendly face.He wears a black bodysuit with fantastic black leather armor.In addition to the same sword and revolver pinned to his waist, there was also an unlit lantern.

"Welcome, distinguished guest of the Church of Evernight—" He said the first half of the sentence loudly, and the second half of the sentence was whispered in a low voice: "Your Excellency Mark Destiny!"

Mark bared his teeth, and thought: I knew it...

Sometimes fate is a circle.

You go around in a big circle, trying to escape but still unable to escape.

Mark can decide his future, but he can't solve his past.

Since the original owner was born in the Church of Light and Night, this bloodline, this evil relationship, is not so easy to get rid of.

Reaching out without hitting the smiling face, Mark nodded slightly: "Thank you, it's also my honor."

"Hello! My name is Abner Miller. Next, I will guide you to the Great Cathedral." Abner made a gesture of invitation.

Looking at the long mountain road in front of him, Mark was still at a loss for the first second.

Immediately, he didn't have to think about it.

After he stepped onto the first step, a solid black mist suddenly rose under the feet of Abner, him, and Helena who followed.

The black mist not only supported their feet, but also thoughtfully raised the handrails that surrounded the four sides and were half the height of a person.

As soon as Mark and Helena held the handrail, the magic escalator automatically climbed up along the railing next to the ladder.

Abner is quite proud: "The Lady of the Night is omnipotent."

"indeed."

"Uh, it's a bit offensive to say. This time, you have won the favor of Ms. Heiye, but unfortunately, Ms. Guangming has a lot of opinions on you. So if you meet a high-ranking cleric of light and find that the other party is not polite, please be sure Be tolerant."

A drop of soybean sweat trickled down Mark's forehead.

If possible, he really didn't want to see the relatives of the original owner.Not to mention whether he would show his feet or not, just because his family belonged to the Illuminati faction, he jumped to the side of the night... He couldn't be sure if his old man wanted to beat him to death.

The lyrics are just like that, he couldn't change it to 'To the sobbing and roaring in the light' on the spot, right?

With this operation, the smell is gone.

All the way up to the top of the mountain, Mark glanced at the tall and splendid Guangming Cathedral, and he knew that he would have no chance to hang out there in his life.

He fled into the darkness without looking back.

The Cathedral of Darkness is simply a black replica of the Cathedral of Light.

In appearance, the two are exactly the same, the difference lies in the material.

The outer wall is made of black jade similar to obsidian, and you can feel a cold breath from a distance. From the grand main entrance, under the watchful eyes of 36 night guards, you follow Abner into the Great Temple of the Night , this feeling is really a bit subtle.

"In front is the main altar of the Lady of the Night. Your entourage, Your Excellency Destiny, why don't you take a rest in the side hall first?" Abner suggested gently.

"Okay." Mark nodded to Helena.

Helena obediently left with Abner.

Waiting in front of the main hall is...

"Hello, Your Excellency Destiny. I am the highest spokesperson of Lady Evernight in the mortal world [Whip of Night] Sigourney Knight. Lady Evernight has issued an oracle. As long as you join the Church of Evernight, you are Her most trusted family." Signey blinked: "And we will become colleagues."

The muscles in the corners of Mark's eyes twitched subtly.

According to common sense, taking refuge in the most powerful twin goddesses in the world is a guaranteed profit.

Too bad Mark has a mind of his own.

This is not only the suggestion of Mr. [Arrogance], but also his own judgment.

Before he came, he checked the gifts of the God of Knowledge and found the saying of 'thousands of millennia'.Some secret techniques were recorded in the book, but were crossed out.The reason is that this mystery is based on the power of a certain god, and that god has fallen.

Mark also found out that in the last millennium, the world's largest sect was not the Church of Light and Night.

Who is it? This information has become taboo and has been erased from the history books by someone.

If there is no accident, next year will happen to be the beginning of a new millennium.

The twin goddesses are so manifested, and they are so generous to win over a small rookie like him, really have no other ideas?
Mark repeated embarrassingly: "The world is so big, I want to go out and see."

Knight was not angry, but showed a smiling expression: "It's okay. Ms. Heiye also ordered that as long as you are in the domain of Heiye, you are our most honored guest."

Mark breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, it's time to sell crabs.
