Chapter 619 Prophet Abyss
A flash of surprise flashed in Eden's eyes.

During his time in the caravan, he had more or less learned about the organizational structure of the pagan religion.

The so-called Sixteen Holy Servants means the holy servants of our King. In pagan beliefs, there are sixteen archangels in front of the throne of our King, and in His kingdom on earth, there are sixteen holy servants. Corresponding to the sixteen archangels, each of them has been given grace and is in charge of the power of judging rewards and punishments within the church. In a sense, they are living prophets.

"What is the reason why the holy servant of my king is here? Is it just to... preach?"

Eden asked tentatively.

"Bachelor, I don't think so. It's just for lectures, so anyone can come. The last time a holy servant came to a place like this, it was for the New Conquest Movement. Well... the priest of Olanto came here in person... I think, It may be related to the newly discovered Prophet Abyss."

So explained the pagan bookseller.

Prophet of the abyss?

Eden caught this term and asked hurriedly:

"What do you mean?"

The pagan bookseller looked to the left and right, and after confirming that no one was around, he lowered his voice and said:

"Bachelor, I saw you taking care of my business, so I told you, please don't tell others.

As booksellers, we have always been well informed. It is said that... in "The Abyss", the abyss into which Prophet Al-Azhar plunged has been found.

The Holy Servant... came here, I guess, to call people to make a pilgrimage and devote themselves to the holy cause. "

Pagan pilgrimage…

To the pagan bookseller's surprise, he did not see Eden's excited expression, but instead saw Eden's brows furrowed.

Just when he thought Eden was not interested and was a little at a loss.

However, Eden took out two silver coins from his arms and handed them into the hands of the bookseller.

"May you be protected."

After saying that, Eden left.

The pagan bookseller held two silver coins in his hands and smiled from ear to ear.

After returning to the hotel, Eden fell into deep thoughts.

"Abyss" is one of the most important scriptures in paganism. Its importance ranks third among paganisms. It is also the shortest text among paganisms.

It records the story of the pagan prophet Azhar, one of the earliest prophets of the Giant King Cult and the only female prophet.

And the most special thing about this scripture compared to other pagan scriptures is.

Prophet Al-Azhar did not perform any miracles, and no miracles appear in her story.

This is very different from other scriptures that are full of signs or wonders.

Eden read the original text, which was very simple.

The general story of "Abyss",

It is the prophet Aizhar who worships the king of my king. She often tells God that there is no more faithful creature in the world than her own faith.

So, the King of Kings led her to a cliff. She looked down and saw that it was dark and gloomy, swallowing up all the light, and she could not see the end.

Aizhar asked God: "O King of my kings, what do you want from me?"

"You will be shattered to pieces," God said. "You jump, there is an abyss."

So, Aizhar did not hesitate and jumped into the abyss.

The story of "The Abyss" ends abruptly here.

Although this article is so short, the research on it in paganism is better than many other scriptures. The pagan priests believe that in this short scripture, there must be small words and great meanings, and even the king of kings is hidden. of supreme revelation.

As a true priest, Eden was not interested in these things, but he was very interested in the prophetic abyss mentioned by the bookseller.

"The prophet...jumped into the abyss without hesitation...

What is in that abyss? "

Eden muttered.

I have an indescribable curiosity.

It's like God is manifesting in his heart.

"God... It's really you who is manifesting your spirit. It's your arrangement."

Eden muttered to himself.

hope…

It is not a manifestation or arrangement of the King of my kings.

..........................................

On the day when the Holy Servant arrived, Eden saw a flood of religious enthusiasm among the pagans.

The streets and alleys were overcrowded, and the crowds were like schools of fish, squeezing out in piles. They shouted and cheered to welcome the servants of our king. There was almost no order at all, because the people who maintained order The guards also took part in the frenzy.

People are vying for a better position, making noises, noisy, redeeming, and even fighting, just to get closer to the Holy Servant. Some particularly pious people even kiss the Holy Servant’s shoe prints and kneel on the ground to pray. Others People also followed suit. Many people couldn't stop crying and trembling when they saw the Holy Servant. They also fought for the robe that the Holy Servant left casually, and tore a simple robe into pieces. People fell into into an atmosphere of collective frenzy.

Eden felt that this atmosphere was even worse than when the True Religion was at its peak.

That Olanto gave a speech in the city's Lecture Hall. Just as the bookseller said, in the name of the King of Kings, he called on everyone to go to the Abyss of the Prophets and complete a great pilgrimage. Tell everyone that devout faith will be promised there and receive grace for righteousness.

"Believers, do you still remember the 'great miracle' in the scriptures? Years of hard training are just for this moment. Just like the predecessors, let faith and righteousness fill your bodies, walk on the right path, and receive teachings, even if the big city is destroyed again. It doesn't hurt to destroy!" the holy servant preached, his words were far more powerful than the will of the monarchs, and an irresistible enthusiasm enveloped the city.

The city square was instantly flooded with the sound of chanting and praying. In this atmosphere, there were very few people who remained indifferent.

And Eden is one of them.

As a priest, Eden is much more rational than ordinary people. Coupled with the differences in beliefs, Eden will not fall into such pagan fanaticism.

Big miracle…

Eden seemed to have read it in some scripture.

Since he came into contact with pagan scriptures not long ago, he was not very impressed by it. He only remembered the great miracle, which seemed to be related to the destruction of a city. The scriptures said that the destruction of that city was not due to the number of righteous people in the city, but to the number of righteous people in the city. Many sinners, but it is the deeds of those believers who reveal the will of our King.

“Praise the King of my kings, praise the King of my kings!”

"A divine manifestation, a divine manifestation of my King of Kings!"

Before Eden had time to think carefully, another burst of fanatical shouting interrupted his thoughts.

The pagan holy servant called all pious people to embark on a pilgrimage, and after him, the pagan priests in the city were also inciting this fanatical sentiment.

The words of the Holy Servant were being preached in the streets, and the priests were also preaching the same content. After Holy Servant Olanto left, the entire city's population was reduced by one-sixth, and countless people followed. The steps of the holy servants are marching towards the Prophet's Abyss, while more people are still packing their bags and embarking on the pilgrimage in the next month.

Eden is making the same preparations.

However, he did not go there for a pilgrimage.

But to change the future.

Through relationships with booksellers, Eden found a team that went on pilgrimage to the Prophet's Abyss. This team was very different from other teams. The owner of this team was a local lord, and the guards were all well-equipped and trained. Well-equipped to deal with most dangers on the road.

"God, I hope I don't go back to the past when I go to the Prophet's Abyss."

Before leaving, Eden prayed in his heart.

However, although he prayed, he did not worry too much. He always had a hunch that he would not go back to the past before he discovered something.

And this time, the stay in the future will be longer than Eden thought beforehand.

In his original expectation, Eden thought that his stay would not exceed one month, but as of today, nearly half a month has passed, and it seems that it is only a matter of time before it exceeds one month.

Although the secret of the stone pendant has not yet been figured out, it is still good. In the future, we will get more information and explore more secrets, so that we can act as a messenger in the eyes of the Fahora followers and complete all of our plans.

.......................................

Although the pagans have great enthusiasm for their faith, this pilgrimage requires them to leave their hometown after all. Therefore, before each team has reached one-tenth of the way, one-third of the people have already returned home. .

Eden was not surprised by this. He had seen this kind of situation many times in the True Religion. Many True believers were often full of confidence at the beginning of their pilgrimage, but before they walked a little further, reality crushed them.

In this respect there is not much difference between pagans and true believers.

"Everyone has something in common, regardless of race or creed, because the same God has given us reason."

Eden thought to himself.

If this soliloquy fell on the ears of other pagans, it would definitely be suspected.

After all, although the pagans also respected the Lord, this respect only stopped at the scriptures. Their law required them to believe in the King of Kings wholeheartedly.

For this reason, those pagans, especially lay believers with low theological attainments, often kept secrets about the previous god.

The Prophetic Abyss preached by the Holy Servant is not far or close to the city where Iden set out. Iden roughly estimates that it is probably shorter than the distance from the dwarf country of Karrond to the ancient kingdom of Logos.

Since the pilgrim team was well-equipped and had sufficient supplies, and they mainly traveled by land, the journey went smoothly without any obstacles. In less than a month, the team was near the Prophet's Abyss. The town was garrisoned.

This pilgrim team is already one of the earliest to arrive among all pilgrim teams. Even so, the town is already overcrowded.

There were no vacancies in the inns, and the local lecterns were filled with pagan noble lords from all over. People like Eden had to live in temporary camps built near the town.

The fog in this area is heavy, there are many forests, and there are strong logs suitable for building camps everywhere. There are tall mountains crisscrossing the area, and there are many cliffs. Looking from top to bottom, it is all bottomless black, but which one, Is this the prophet of the abyss?

Pagans have different opinions about this. Some say that a place fifteen miles away in the east is the Prophet's Abyss. Some say that according to the scriptures, the Prophet's Abyss is over Mount Pros in the south. Some say that the Prophet's Abyss is actually more than 100 miles away. outside.

Through all the above, Iden discovered that the pagans had only confirmed the approximate location of the Prophet's Abyss. The holy servants traveled back and forth across the pagan world for this purpose, but no one could tell where the exact location was.

People came excitedly from all over the country just to kiss the soil of the Holy Land, kneel down to pray, and fulfill their devout wishes. But when people really arrived here, they discovered that no one knew which place was the real Holy Land. What if I kiss the wrong soil or pray the wrong prayers, will all my efforts be wasted and my efforts to draw water from a bamboo basket will be in vain?

However, this setback did not extinguish the enthusiasm of the pagans. They were able to travel thousands of miles to come here, and their piety for their faith was far beyond ordinary people. In a short period of time, they quickly regrouped, and all of a sudden, they came here. The pagans who came here formed various teams to explore the exact location and communicate with each other.

And Eden took action.

"We can't just wait, that would be too passive, and...I could go back to the past at any time."

Eden thought so.

This time, I have stayed in the future for far more than a month. I don't know when I will be sent back to the past. The only thing I can confirm is that the time to stay in the future is getting less and less, and I must take this opportunity. , act quickly, the initiative must be in your own hands.

Through his talent as a priest, after a short period of study, Eden's understanding of pagan scriptures was not only far superior to that of ordinary believers, but even ordinary pagan priests could not compare with him, coupled with his excellent eloquence , he successfully fooled several teams into joining the search for the abyss, and shared a lot of information.

A few days later, Eden gathered all the information he had learned and sorted it out. He also used scriptures from the "Abyss" to infer that the most likely place is more than 50 kilometers northwest of this town. In the Longma Mountains inside and outside.

Just do what you think of. After Eden determined the location, he relied on his eloquence and knowledge to convince a team to follow him to the Longma Mountains.

The leader of this team is a pagan priest named Molemos. It is said that he was appreciated and received by the Holy Servant of Olanto for his knowledge in his early years. He enjoys a very high reputation and is well-received in his hometown. Tens of thousands of pagans imitated and obeyed, and his words and deeds were semi-sacred in the eyes of those pagans.

The other people in the team are not simple either. They are either his disciples or famous warriors in a certain kingdom. They obey Molemos's orders almost unconditionally.

Iden came into contact with the pagan priest through the escort of Molemos, and the latter's guess happened to be similar to Iden. In this way, Iden successfully joined the team and prepared Then, head towards the Longma Mountains.
