Chapter 315 Multiple Choice Questions
In a crowded underground wine cellar.
Sam was startled when he heard the voice.
Because before that, he hadn't realized that there was already someone waiting in this basement.
The other party seemed to appear out of thin air.
"Reina Monia."
The beautiful girl stood up and saluted, smiling and introducing her name.
"You are the first new members of the Church of Knowledge to be publicly recruited. In order to follow the tradition, we will complete the first ceremony."
Under the leadership of the girl named Reina, Sam listened to the other party repeating the doctrine of the Church of Knowledge in a daze.
Sam memorized the doctrine of the Church of Knowledge.
He originally thought that there would be some procedures such as following the guide to recite.
Sam was also thinking that if he could recite, would he appear more pious.
But there was no result at all.
The other party was repeating the whole process, and they didn't have to do anything, just listen quietly.
The "steps" of the next ceremony shocked Sam even more.
…
The black-robed believer who led them to the underground wine cellar suddenly raised his arm, pointed directly at Reina, and shouted:
"Evil God! Heretic!"
Sam thought: "No, friend?"
At this moment, he was completely confused.
Not only was he confused.
The other newcomers who planned to join the church were also confused.
The style of this scene was a bit too explosive.
"He is obviously a believer in seeking knowledge, right?"
"He believes in the God of Seeking Knowledge, right?"
How can he say that his belief is an evil god and a heresy?
This must be considered blasphemy!
Aren't you afraid of being punished by God and abandoned by God?
In addition, the more Sam listened, the more he felt that this guy's voice sounded familiar to him.
The other party might be someone he knew before!
While Sam was confused, the ritual process continued.
Reina calmly introduced the great power of the God of Seeking Knowledge to the other party, and his selfless act of blessing every believer.
"Please repeat the prayer with me."
"Put your faith in the God of Knowledge, Nowen, and He will respond to your request and guide you."
Finally, Reina ended with these two sentences.
Sam breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, he entered the familiar part.
Repeat the prayer and offer your faith.
The style of this step finally returned to normal.
But the process of the ceremony still did not proceed as Sam expected.
Rena and the black-robed seeker of knowledge repeated the prayer very quickly. Before Sam and others had time to repeat, they finished.
Sam was confused again.
"No, what about me?"
Shouldn't this step lead them to proceed sentence by sentence?
How come those two people passed it directly?
The scene fell into silence for a few seconds.
Until the black-robed seeker of knowledge shouted:
"Hey! I did it!"
"I am a mage now!"
A bright ball of light condensed in his hand.
Standard [Illumination] magic effect.
As the ball of light rose into the air, the originally dim basement was illuminated.
Sam tilted his head and continued to be confused.
These two people are obviously believers of knowledge, and it is almost known that the believers of knowledge are all spellcasters.
"What do you mean you are a wizard now?"
"Weren't you one before?"
The girl Reina smiled and turned sideways, pointing to a simple door at the end of the basement.
"Step into this door and seek knowledge of the future of all things in the world."
...
Wait until the black-robed believer of knowledge opened the door and walked in.
Reina then gestured to the 50 newcomers including Sam:
"If you want to believe in the great god of knowledge, Nowen, please repeat the prayer as he does, and step into the door."
This time, Reina's prayer became normal speed.
She recited a sentence, and Sam hurriedly repeated it.
In the small underground wine cellar, neat voices echoed:
"In the endless universe..."
"..."
"...May your truth shine upon the earth!"
The entire prayer was not long, and it took only a few minutes to recite the entire prayer.
Sam blinked.
"It seems...nothing has changed?"
According to the process of the familiar black-robed believer who had learned the knowledge before, they should have mastered the magic of [Illumination] by now, right?
Didn't the other party cast magic directly after repeating the prayer?
Sam felt that his body and state...were still the same as before.
He had heard that if one could be blessed by the gods, one would have a feeling in the dark, as if a switch was turned on in the depths of the mind, and one would master the corresponding magic or divine art without a teacher.
But Sam didn't feel like he had mastered the magic without a teacher at all.
If he had to say it.
Because he had only eaten a few pieces of fruit at night, it was already midnight, and he felt a little hungry.
"Could it be that... the God of Knowledge doesn't like me and doesn't intend to bless me..."
Sam suddenly had a very frustrating thought.
He originally thought that this god was just like what the believers of knowledge preached, and that as long as he offered his faith, he could get his blessing.
But he still seemed to get nothing.
"Step into this door and seek the future of all things in the world."
In the quiet underground wine cellar, the voice of the girl Reina sounded particularly beautiful.
"This is the last step of the initiation ceremony."
Sam's heart rekindled the flame of hope!
It turned out that the ceremony was not yet completed!
There is still one step!
He still has hope!
Sam followed the others and walked quickly towards the plain wooden door.
The person walking in front stretched out his hand and opened the wooden door.
The man's footsteps suddenly stopped!
"Hiss--"
A sound of sucking in cold air was heard.
Not only him.
The few people behind him who saw the scene inside the door also hurriedly stopped!
Standing in doubt.
The person in front did not step into the door immediately, so the team behind also stopped.
Sam was still a little confused.
Until he stretched his neck hard and saw the scene behind the door:
Gray fog.
Just like the thick gray fog wrapped outside the misty valley.
At this time, it was quietly surging behind the door.
……
Sam felt his heart skip a beat.
He would never have thought of it.
The initiation ceremony of the Church of Knowledge actually required him to step into the gray fog himself!
That was the mysterious gray fog that could devour all life, which could not be analyzed or dispelled!
No wonder the people in front did not dare to step into it immediately.
Sam subconsciously looked back at the location of the girl Rena.
"Where is she?"
She disappeared without a trace.
In other words.
There were only 50 people left in the underground wine cellar.
A faint blue arrow lit up at the stairs leading to the basement.
There was a line of text in the same color below:
"If you want to give up, leave here."
This sentence seemed to be cast with the magic of [understanding text], and even illiterate people could understand its meaning.
Go forward, step into the gray fog, life and death are unknown.
Go back, give up faith and leave safely.
"Huh————"
Sam let out a long breath.
This multiple-choice question was not difficult for him at all.
...
There is one more update, which will be sent before 19:30.
