I'm a spy in the film

Bourne hurried after him.

Father Marcos paced back and forth, frowning as if he was thinking about something. Bourne did not dare to disturb him and just followed him silently.

After a long time, Father Marcos suddenly stopped and seemed to have made a decision. He took out a thick hardcover book from his priest robe, held it in his hand, turned around and looked at Bourne solemnly.

"Child, I know you don't have much interest in religion, which is not good. You need to read a lot of biblical books to enrich your knowledge. Your father has paid a lot for your promotion, enough to shut up those people, so you can't live up to his expectations. This is what I used before, you have to read it carefully... OH GOD!"

Father Marcos stared at the faint white light emitted from the holy covenant and opened his mouth in disbelief.

"What's going on? Father, your book is actually a touch screen light?"

Bourne was also a little confused. He just took the thick book handed to him by Father Marcos. As a result, as soon as his hands touched the hard cover of the book, the whole book lit up like a light bulb, emitting a faint milky white light. If he was not close to it, he might not be able to see it clearly in the midday sun.

As soon as Bourne let go, the milky white light disappeared and the thick book returned to its original ordinary appearance.

Father Marcos and Bourne looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

After a long while, Bourne spoke first:

"Father, what's going on now?"

"Kid, have you ever killed anyone?"

"I have only killed those who deserved death."

"Have you ever saved anyone?"

"I save people just to calm my mind, not to repay the kindness."

“Do you believe in God?”

"God is our spiritual sustenance, but everything depends on ourselves!"

"Very good! Child, put your hands on this book!"

Father Marcos held the book flat on the palm of his left hand and said seriously.

Bourne followed his instructions and lightly pressed his right hand on the cover of the book. His eyes widened and the white light appeared again.

And you said your book is not a touch screen light?

Bourne yelled wildly in his mind.

However, Father Marcos' expression was very serious. He was muttering something in a low voice and at a fast speed. Although he was very close to him, Bourne could not hear a single word. Only the last word "Amen" was clear.

Then, Bourne saw Father Marcos raise his right hand and press his thumb against his face. The next moment, a burning pain came from the skin of his forehead, as if someone was carving something on his forehead with fingernails.

It can't be a crescent moon, right? Then wouldn't I be Bao Qingtian? It should be a cross. But this is too painful. This old man is so strong, won't he break my skin?

Bourne was still secretly complaining, but Father Marcos had already stopped his movements. Bourne felt that something seemed to have established a connection with him. Looking down, the thick, diary-sized Xinhua Dictionary in his hand no longer emitted white light and returned to its ordinary appearance.

“This is the book my teacher gave me when I first joined the church!”

Father Marcos regained his usual smiling expression. Somehow, Bourne felt that the old man's smile was actually kind, but he didn't know that old man Marcos was so happy that he was about to jump up.

This is a rare wild Holy Light Affinity that can be seen once in a century. The fact that I was able to discover this must be the Lord’s blessing!

Father Marcos made the sign of the Holy Cross in his heart and looked at Bourne even more passionately.

Big changes are coming, and all factions of the church are working hard to carry out their own plans, but these plans require people to be successfully implemented, so networking with outstanding talents is the foundation of everything.

Who would have thought that the son born to that old ruffian with thick eyebrows and big eyes, Nord, is actually gifted. He can naturally awaken such a strong affinity for holy light at this time when the magic tide is at its lowest. If he cultivates himself well after baptism, hahahaha, I really want to see the surprised faces of those old guys in the Vatican!

"Father, Father Marcos? Are you okay!?

Bourne called softly, finally waking Father Marcos from his blissful imagination, but the priest's grinning mouth could not be closed. Bourne even wondered if he would drool if he let him be in a daze for a while longer.

Fortunately, Father Marcos was a well-travelled man, and he quickly calmed down, confessed a few words in his heart, and then focused his attention on the matter at hand.

Clearing his throat, Father Marcos said:

"Child, I can't tell you the details yet, but you must know that the world is about to change. The strength of individuals will become the mainstream of the world's pursuit. In this regard, our church has a unique advantage. Take this book back. From today on, you must recite it every day. It can bless you and give you strength!"

"Okay, Father, but the white light just now..."

Before coming here, Bourne's father Nord had told Bourne, "Whatever old man Marcos gives you, just take it. He won't hurt you!" So, when Bourne saw it was a book, he was not surprised. After all, you can't expect a conservative old priest to give you an IPaD, right? What's more, this book can glow. Should it be a new Bible with a built-in lighting function?

It's just that the Riddler is a bit annoying. What world is going to be destroyed? What world is going to change? Isn't it just the revival of magic? It's so serious and mysterious. In addition, what is that damn baptism? Not revealing anything, really tight-lipped!

"Child, capable people should shoulder greater responsibilities. The first time I saw you, I felt that you were an upright and brave child!"

Seeing that although Bourne agreed to accept the Holy Covenant, he kept his hands on it for a long time without saying anything, and his expression was somewhat tangled, Father Marcos thought that it was difficult for a young man like Bourne to suddenly believe in a faith, so he further explained:

"Bourne, there are some things I cannot tell you right now, but what I say will definitely be beneficial to you. When you are baptized next year, how many gifts you can receive will largely depend on your reading and understanding of this book during this period. This book was passed down to me by my teacher, and I hope it will shine even more brightly in your hands!"

Father Marcos didn't know that Bourne had been overwhelmed by the content of the information transmitted in his mind. This book, which the system called "Holy Covenant", came from a knight order and was one of the knight order's inheritances. It recorded the advancement method of a profession called knight and the related skill training methods. It can be said that if possible, this "Holy Covenant" could create a knight family.

However, due to the long time and the thin magic power in the current era, most of the records in this holy covenant cannot be displayed. Only the words and deeds of the knights, as well as the quotations recorded in the book, can be reflected. By reading these, there is a chance to discover and comprehend some knight-related skills, but it requires a lot of time and energy to carefully study, and at the same time, a lot of reading of biblical classics can be used to assist.

However, what caught Bourne's attention the most was the last line of small words in the introduction of "Sacred Covenant": "Reading for more than one hour every day will slowly increase your personal talent for the element of 'light'."

So Bourne readily agreed: "Okay, Father, I will definitely read it carefully!"

"Can you really promise to read this book every day?"

"Really, Father Marcos, I graduated from the University of Dallas School of Law with honors. Even if you don't believe in my character, you should believe in my professional ability!"

There is one more thing Bourne didn't say, which is: just for the fact that it can improve my talent in the element of "light", I will persist in reading it to the end. If it dares to have no time limit, believe it or not, I will read "The Covenant" while driving, and read until the book goes bankrupt!

"I think I have fallen in love with this book. I will read it every day from now on, even if I don't sleep!"

Bourne was almost patting his chest.

Father Marcos looked at Bourne's enthusiastic face, which did not seem fake, and he also wondered in his heart, is this "Holy Covenant" so infectious? Although my old teacher said that this Holy Covenant has the effect of infecting people's hearts when he gave it to me, is the effect so obvious? Why didn't I feel anything when I got it? Or is this kid Bourne special? It's really strange.

But he soon put aside his doubts and accepted with a smile the great reality that he had found a good seedling, and that this good seedling was very motivated!
