Warhammer 40K in a box

Chapter 124 Summoning the Living Saint (th update)

Since he had decided to talk, Chen Xi did not waste any time and quickly set off for the city of the state religion, intending to have a good talk with the old bishop.

There is still a big difference between the city of state religion and Rostov.

The whole city has a strong religious atmosphere, which is a fact that does not need to be elaborated on.

The strong religious atmosphere also makes the entire city built around churches of all sizes.

In other words, the city was founded around the first church in Rostov.

The first pilgrims who arrived on the planet built a small church under the leadership of the Anglican priest, and the pilgrims built a simple town around the church.

This is the original origin of this church city.

In the decades that followed, more and more pilgrims arrived on the planet, and some continued on their journey to new pilgrimage sites.

But some people stayed, thinking that this was the end of their pilgrimage and decided to stay and live on this planet.

As the population grows, the size of the city continues to expand.

The small churches originally built by the first pilgrims were obviously unable to meet the growing religious needs of the believers, and the city itself was constantly expanding.

So the small church became a cathedral and the small town became a city.

However, the development potential of Rostov II was very limited. Even with the continuous arrival of pilgrims, the development here was very slow.

After all, it is just a frontier world. Although the state religion has deliberately guided and promoted pilgrims here, the number of people who can stay is always limited. The city has not developed rapidly in the past few decades.

But with Chen Xi becoming the planetary governor and creating miracles and consecrated wine, the development of the entire planet seemed to have entered the fast lane, with both the expansion of the city and the expansion of the church itself developing rapidly.

When Chen Xi arrived at the church where the old bishop was, it was undergoing expansion. Some secondary buildings were demolished, and the main building of the church was being raised and expanded.

"What's going on with the door of this church?" Chen Xi asked curiously as he looked at the magnificent cathedral in front of him with a small-looking door.

Williams, who has now begun to perform his duties as a clerical attendant and secretary, introduced: "This is the original gate of the Rostov Cathedral, which was built brick by brick by His Excellency the Bishop and the original believers.

Later, when the church was expanded, His Eminence the Bishop said that this door should be preserved so that all believers would remember that Rostov's state religion began here.

After hearing this, Chen Xi realized that the old bishop was the first generation of Anglican priests who brought believers to the Rostov II.

He worked hard for eighty years to build this church and this city bit by bit. It can almost be said that he was the one who watched the entire Rostov develop.

This also gave Chen Xi a deeper understanding of the old bishop, but also made him more worried about the upcoming negotiations.

After all, since this old bishop was able to build this city out of thin air brick by brick, his mind and faith must be very firm.

It is almost impossible to shake the ideas of such a person.

However, the issues that need to be discussed still need to be discussed, and Chen Xi also has cards to play.

He had previously returned to the 3k era and adjusted several of his chess pieces, allowing him to place an additional combat nun, the Living Saint, here.

(The Living Saint and Her Little Sister)
This was Chen Xi's plan. Since your state religion wants to engage in religious activities, I won't discuss politics with you. I'll just let the living saint come and talk to you. Anyway, I was personally recruited by the old man Huang. Since he doesn't object to me using his name to do things, I'll openly perform a "miracle."

Chen Xi wanted to perform a scene in front of the largest church on Rostov II, in full view of the public, where he acted as a living saint blessing the God-chosen governor, so that he could gain the emperor's endorsement.

Although he himself had this thing, the imperial edict from the palace and a living miracle were two different things after all.

Chen Xi didn't think that this matter would cause any reaction from the old emperor. The emperor was a pragmatist. If something was useful and could be used, he would use it to the hilt.

It's not a big deal if Chen Xi uses his name to cheat people, not to mention that this is not a fraud.

Walking to the old door of the cathedral, Chen Xi bowed his head and prayed as he looked at the door which was damaged but still looked full of sacred meaning.

This was actually just a pretense. Although he respected everything the old bishop had built, he needed to put on a show right now.

As Chen Xi bowed his head in prayer, he quickly withdrew his will and threw his living saint chess piece into the box.

He tried to attach his consciousness to the chess piece of the Living Saint, but failed.

This surprised Chen Xi a little. Theoretically, he could use different chess pieces as his avatars. The Judge's piece was just the one he used the most, and he had never changed his avatar.

But what does it mean that we cannot use a living saint as our incarnation now?
Chen Xi had no time to think. The living saint had already made the move. It was too late to regret. He had to continue acting out this drama.

After all, they are his chess pieces, and he has enough control over them. Even if he cannot possess the living saint, he can still control this chess piece.

Chen Xi quickly re-possessed the Governor without standing up or looking up, but he had quietly mobilized his spiritual power, intending to use it to command her after the Living Saint arrived.

However, just as Chen Xi was thinking about how to control the living saint, a golden light descended from the sky and enveloped him.

"Praise the emperor!" Chen Xi praised the old man in his heart.

Along with the golden light, flower petals also fell. Several pigeons that would never appear on the Rostov II flew through the sky, and a golden figure slowly descended from the sky.

At this time, all the believers around the cathedral were kneeling on the ground, praying loudly.

The arrival of a living saint is not something you see often.

Even Williams, who was beside Chen Xi, had already knelt on the ground, praying devoutly.

The clergy inside the church rushed out at almost a mad speed, and when they saw the living saint slowly landing in front of Chen Xi, they slid to their knees.

He literally slid to his knees, kneeling on the ground and sliding in front of Chen Xi and the Living Saint.

Even the old bishop came down from his anti-gravity platform tremblingly and knelt devoutly in front of the living saint.

For a devout believer, what could be more exciting than seeing the arrival of the Messenger of God?
