Alien Knights

Chapter 5: assembly

   Stepping on the cyan stone bricks and walking in the magnificent church, Todd was finally able to see the world with his own eyes once again.

The long central hall is arranged with a tubular arch made of stone. High side windows are distributed on both sides of the roof. The floor and walls are alternately paved with dark and light marble. Metal grilles, There are carved stone screens, choir chairs, wood carvings on the preaching stand, and sculptures of the Holy Spirit. Rotating and watching everything around him, Todd was amazed. In his previous life, he never imagined that one day he would be able to travel to such a medieval world.

   The monk in gray robes passed by the boy and cast a strange look.

   His gaze penetrated the wide robe, and Todd saw the blood and organs in their chests. When the monks looked at their leader Harkins, their heart beats faster, and their footsteps became rushed.

nervous? fear?

Returning his gaze to the man in front of him, Todd noticed that Huggins had a standard Slavic face, with a long skull, a high forehead, low cheekbones, thin lips, a slightly raised chin, and a tall stature. Thin, pale, and neatly combed goatee into pigtails, the whole really gives a sense of fierceness and inaccessibility.

   But after a few days of getting along, Todd felt more and more that this man really couldn't find anything terrible. His appearance is just appearance. Hudgens is calm and thoughtful, but he has a cheerful personality and loves to sing. There is only one place that makes people a little concerned.

   From the first meeting, Huggins wears a pair of leather gloves. He has never seen him take off the gloves during the journey.

   Maybe it's a wound on the hand, maybe it's just because of habit...

   spent more than an hour strolling around, and Todd gradually understood his place and time through the introduction of men along the way.

  From the perspective of the development of civilization, the world that I traveled through, the level of technology and culture is similar to that of medieval Europe at the end of the 12th century and the beginning of the 13th century.

  From the geographical environment, according to the achievements of navigators and cartographers, the whole world is divided into a continent and several islands. The extreme north end of the continent is covered with snow and ice all year round, and the rest of the land is cut into several terrain areas by three horizontal and two vertical mountains and two large and three small lakes. The archipelago area in the northwest, the plain areas in the midwest and southwest, the highlands and snowfields in the northeast, the desert areas in the east and middle, and the grasslands in the southeast.

   From the perspective of national distribution and religious regions, the central and western regions are composed of the Papal State and the Secular State, and believe in the Church of the Father. The place where Todd is located is the San Sidro Monastery next to the Kingdom of Silver Ring in the western seaside area.

   Speaking of San Sidro Monastery, this building with a history of nearly a hundred years is a landmark building on the Moon Creek Plain. In order to commemorate the ascetic monks of Sidlow, the Silver Ring Kingdom built the prototype of this monastery in 1031. At the beginning of its construction, it was just a small monk gathering area with only three buildings: the ritual classroom, the holy temple, and the rest house. After several renovations and expansions for nearly a hundred years, the San Sidro Monastery expanded to become quite popular among the southwestern countries. Famous religious place.

   Hundreds of monks gathered here, insisting on hermit-like monasticism, yearning for inner peace and piety.

   That's what Hudgens said to him.

   But as the visit to the basement of the monastery got deeper and deeper, Todd became more skeptical about this statement in his mind.

   The dark and long corridor, the swaying and weird torches, the wet and dark floor.

   If it hadn't just walked through the bright and sacred place, no one would have imagined it. It was like the aisle of the catacombs, which happened to be built under the monastery.

   The two walked to the end of the tunnel, and a gate shimmering with metallic luster appeared in front of them.

   These four sentences are engraved on the door.

   "As it is;"

   "As it is outside;"

   "As it is above;"

   "As it is below."

   Who came up with these four funny sentences? !

   With a head full of question marks, Todd followed the tall man into an underground chapel.

   The sculpture of the Holy Father stands tall on the upper part of the underground hall. Although its appearance is no different from that in the temple, the dim fire light always gives the boy a different illusion.

  Master Myris stood on the high preaching stage, and his clothes looked much more formal than before. He is wearing a distinctive robe with flared sleeves. The neckline is in the shape of an inverted triangle point. The clothing and the brim of the hat are decorated with several ridges, and they are stitched with gold and silver threads.

   Below him, there are several benches, and three men and one woman sit on them.

   When Todd walked into the lobby, everyone focused on him.

   The boy who was a little nervous and didn't know how to deal with himself, was pushed by the person behind him. Looking back, what I saw was the encouraging and approving smile on Hudgens' big face.

   Bite the scalp and under everyone's gaze, Todd walked up to Master Miles and looked at the old man's gentle smiling face. There was always a feeling of strayed into the MLM organization.

   "Today, we gather here to witness the joining of a new member."

   "This child, born in a farm, has not been educated by any church, but has solved the "Box of Proverbs"..."

   Someone under the stage made a surprised noise.

  Master Myris looked at the expressions of the audience with a little bit of evil interest. After people calmed down, he calmly threw a bigger message: "He came into contact with the "Sutherland Relics"..."

   "Oh my God!"

"what?!"

   Several people exclaimed loudly, and someone kicked down the bench under them.

   The old man raised his eyebrows, seemingly satisfied with everyone's reaction: "I announce that as a alien, he is now officially a member of our family."

   beckoned to the boy, Master Miles motioned Todd to follow him and walked to the crowd below.

With the palm of his hand facing up, the old man drew a half-circle toward the men and women in front of him, and finally pointed to himself and said to Todd: "Child, as you can see, we are all aliens. What are aliens? Unlike ordinary people, we have more or less abilities that ordinary people don’t have. This is the blessing and blessing that God has given me, but some people in the world are afraid because of ignorance. Because of fear, we call it hatred. "Devil's posthumous child", you want to get rid of it quickly. Therefore, aliens can only protect themselves by consolidating their family and hiding power... Come to me, I will introduce your family to you..."

The two first stopped in front of a middle-aged man and woman who bowed down and bowed. Master Miles said: “This is the Raglan couple. They run a bakery in the town and are also responsible for the monastery’s material transactions and food supply. ."

   Looking at the short, squat, and kind-looking middle-aged couple in front of him about 40 years old, Todd bowed down and bowed to each other. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Raglan took advantage of his carelessness and directly pinched the boy's cheek with her hands and looked at his teeth curiously.

   "They said that even the bones of people who come into contact with the relic will turn into gold..."

   Listening to his wife's dizzy words, Mr. Raglan quickly opened her hand and hurriedly said sorry to the boy.

  Master Myris rolled his eyes, UU reading www.uukanshu.com led the follower to a tall, thin man with a smile on his face and harmless humans and animals.

   Seeing the other person get up from the seat, Todd raised his head and opened his mouth wide in surprise.

   Hudgens was already tall in his impression, but compared with this thin, tall and tall man like a bamboo pole, he became a veritable short man.

  My God, one meter eight? No, this is probably close to two meters.

   "This is little Jerry, who just passed his eighteenth birthday the day before yesterday. He is a pious and kind child."

   Hearing the introduction of the old man, Todd was surprised again.

   can grow like this at the age of eighteen. If a few years pass, wouldn’t it grow to the sky? !

   And, listening to the name, little Jerry... always reminds people of the omnipotent little mouse in "Cat and Mouse". The contrast is too big.

   "That's Edgar..."

   Todd Yiyan looked at the lonely figure of a thin boy in the corner of the lobby, his cold eyes looked a little uncomfortable.

   "He is our messenger and the liaison between us." Master Myris looked around the lobby and asked, "Where is Marcos and the "Black Sheep"?"

  Mrs. Raglan approached Todd. The latter dodged her fat hand. The woman replied respectfully: "Marcos has gone to the watchtower in the east. There is no news from him yet."

Edgar left a cold sentence: "The'Black Sheep' followed the circus and went to the next city to perform. Before leaving, she said that compared to the boring days here in the monastery, it made her feel more at ease there. "After speaking, he turned and disappeared into the aisle.

   Hearing the melancholic sigh of the old man beside him, Todd suddenly felt that the MLM organization he joined was not doing a bad brainwashing job...
