Chapter 213 Baptism Mission

After complimenting him, seeing that Bourne looked unhappy, Joseph immediately explained to him.

It turned out that the night before, Joseph's father came home and inadvertently mentioned that several saints who cooperated with the Jewish merchant group were ready to start the first stage of baptism. He asked Joseph and his brothers and sisters to collect more information about supernatural events in the state to prepare for the saints to complete the tasks.

Joseph thought of Bourne, and found out through his connections that Bourne had stayed in Washington for more than a month and had not returned.

Coincidentally, early this morning, he heard that the FBI had cracked a major supernatural case in New York State, and the officers sent included John Zhao and Zack.

Joseph knew that these two people were both partners who had a good relationship with Bourne, and they were also ordinary people.

Therefore, Joseph deduced that Bourne must be the protagonist of this operation.

With the idea of ​​giving it a try, he called Bourne, and sure enough, Bourne knew nothing about baptism.

"So, you don't know the details about baptism?" Bourne frowned.

"Yes, so you have to go to the church in person, and I heard you have to bring a voucher!"

"certificate?"

"Yes, as a Holy Son, you must have an item rich in holy light bestowed by your mentor. This is a symbol of your identity as a Holy Son. It is usually a cross."

Bourne nodded.

The last time I met Father Marcos in Texas, he gave me a holy contract, which must be the so-called certificate. But why didn't Father Marcos inform me of such a big thing? Did something happen to him?

It seems that I have to go to the church to find out.

"Do you know which church to go to?" Bourne asked.

"Holy Trinity Church!"

Half an hour later, the helicopter landed on the rooftop helipad of a high-rise building on Wall Street.

As Bourne got off the plane, he turned to Joseph and said:

"Thank you very much. If you need anything, please wait until I come out of the church."

Joseph looked pleasantly surprised. He did want to ask Bourne for help with something, which had been delayed for a while. And it just so happened that Bourne came back and owed him a favor.

God, this is the second time you have favored me, apart from reincarnation!

……

"You are Bourne?! Why did you come only now?"

As soon as he entered the magnificent Holy Trinity Church and revealed his identity, a middle-aged deacon with a bald head hurried out. He treated Bourne very badly, almost questioning him.

Bourne had to explain: "Sorry, due to work reasons, I stayed out of town for a long time and only came back the day before yesterday..."

However, his words were interrupted by the other party:

"Is there any work more important than baptism? If you don't show up today, I will apply to the Vatican headquarters to cancel your qualification as a Son of God!"

The middle-aged deacon's nose is not a nose, and his eyes are not eyes.

However, despite this, he still took Bourne into the back hall obediently. Along the way, many churchgoers saluted the middle-aged priest.

The middle-aged priest kept a straight face and responded meticulously.

Bourne discovered that everyone who saluted and greeted the middle-aged monk was well-dressed, and he was familiar with several of them, as they frequently appeared in financial and political news and the media.

Those people were also looking at Bourne inconspicuously. Most of them were puzzled as to why a young man like Bourne could be invited into the back hall of the Holy Trinity Cathedral and be personally received by a deacon of a high position.

Of course, there were also people who were confused and puzzled after seeing Bourne's face, and then suddenly realized that they had obviously recognized Bourne.

But even so, no one took out their cell phone to take a picture of Bourne.

It has to be said that those who can worship in Trinity Cathedral are either rich or noble, and they still have these basic qualities. It is more likely that they are afraid that rash actions will anger Bourne and cause unnecessary trouble.

Bourne followed the middle-aged deacon to an office, and watched the middle-aged deacon turn on the computer and enter Bourne's name into a website.

Bourne was dumbfounded.

This is completely different from what I thought!

Perhaps he saw what Bourne was thinking, the middle-aged deacon sneered and said:

"Why, do you think we are old stubborn people who are using the old and cumbersome methods instead of the convenient and fast methods like the Internet?"

Bourne smiled awkwardly and did not answer.

The middle-aged deacon raised his neck proudly and said, "I have doctorates in both theology and computer science. You can call me Deacon Nicholas!"

"Yes, Deacon Nicholas."

Bourne followed suit and took out the holy deed that Father Marcos had given him from his bag.

Deacon Nicholas took the holy contract and placed it in his palm. He whispered a passage of scripture and opened his eyes. The holy contract emitted a faint white light, which was much weaker than the one emitted when Bourne himself first touched it.

Deacon Nicholas nodded with satisfaction, carefully compared the Holy Contract with the image on the computer screen for a long time, then turned to Bourne and said:

"Although you came later than the other saints, I still want to give you this opportunity. Where is your own holy weapon? Take it out so that I can check the holy light on it to see if you are truly pious to our Lord."

"My holy weapon?" Bourne was puzzled.

"Why, you don't have any holy implements of your own? Then how do you spread the glory of my Lord?"

Deacon Nicholas' tone suddenly became stern: "Each Holy Son has a sacred vessel that he cultivates with his own holy power. This way, when he encounters the power of darkness, he can fully exert the power of holy light. You don't even know this, and you only use your mentor's sacred vessel, right?"

"No, no," Bourne saw that the priest's tone in front of him was getting more and more hostile and his eyes were getting sharper, so he had to take out the cross that Father Chelsea had given him the day before from his bag.

I just don't know how to tell whether this holy weapon was made by infusing it with holy power?

Does the Vatican have any other way to test this?

What would happen if my holy weapon failed to meet the standards? Would I be disqualified?

Bourne felt uneasy, as if he was back in his previous life, when the teacher caught him reciting a text before the final exam.

At this moment, Deacon Nicholas suddenly urged:

"What are you still standing there for? Why don't you activate the holy light on the holy weapon? Is it too weak to activate? You guys..."

However, he froze in the middle of his words, because the cross in Bourne's hand emitted a dazzling light, just like the flashlight of a mobile phone camera shining into the eyeballs at close range.

Deacon Nicholas cried out "Ouch!" and closed his eyes. Tears could not help but flow out. Damn, his eyes were dizzy.

Bourne quickly withdrew the output of holy light. He had only used less than one tenth of his strength just now. He thought it was not enough and wanted to use more. Now, it seems that he had used too much strength.

"Deacon, are you okay?" Bourne asked with concern.

"I'm fine." Deacon Nicholas waved his hands. Although his eyes were still closed, his tone and attitude were much softer.

He said, "Don't blame your mentor for not informing you. The spiritual tide revived very suddenly this time. All bishops and archbishops in the dioceses, except for those who were unable to move, were summoned to the Vatican. It happened suddenly. The same thing happened with the start of baptism. It was arranged suddenly."

"But it's still early. I've already confirmed your identity. Today I'll upload your information to the Vatican's database and arrange for someone to prepare the items you need for the first stage of baptism. Come back tomorrow to get them. I'll tell you about the mission tomorrow."
