Evening Bell Church

After the two chatted with each other for a while, Emilia took Su Ge out of the palace and walked in the quiet garden. She said, "How much do you know about the structure and system of the entire church now?"

Su Ge thought for a while: "I don't know much about the bishop, the archbishop, the central archbishop, the Holy Sword Team, as well as the God's Punisher, the Night Watcher, the Demon Hunter, etc., which are relatively scattered."

Emilia's pleasant voice was laced with a smile: "You are already a bishop, but you are not familiar with the structure of the church. If you tell me this, you will be laughed at."

Su Ge was a little embarrassed and said respectfully: "Please ask the archbishop to educate you."

"Then let me give you a general overview. You are no longer an outsider, and you should know some details about the church."

"I'll talk from top to bottom. The top of the entire church is naturally the leader of the entire church, His Majesty the Pope. Next to the Pope are the three saints, known as the Three Saints. The three Saints command the Holy Sword Team respectively. , the choir, and the tribunal, are the pillars of the entire church structure.”

"Three Saints..." This was the first time Su Ge heard this name.

"Under the Three Saints are our twelve central archbishops. The central archbishop is the core staff who assists His Majesty the Pope in governing the church. Each central archbishop has a fixed diocese. For example, my diocese is the entire Northeast Province. Among the central archbishops The other ones are ordinary archbishops without dioceses. These people are usually elders in the church. As the person in charge of emergencies, they are usually relatively idle, just like the Archbishop Jellos you are familiar with."

"Under the archbishop, there are usually bishops in your region. Each person is responsible for the Holy Blood Church in a city. The overall hierarchy is not very complicated."

Su Ge nodded clearly, indicating that he understood.

Emilia continued: "Let's talk about the different agencies under these frameworks."

"The Choir is a group under the command of the Cang Yue Saints. The people in it are clergy who have devout beliefs and can be blessed by the March Goddess. These people generally never marry or remarry throughout their lives and dedicate everything to themselves. To the goddess, it is the lifelong mission to sing the praises of the goddess. The saints are selected from the choir every time.”

"There are three agencies below the choir: the Exorcist Sister, who is responsible for dealing with the lowest level monsters and helping civilians to exorcise demons; the Holy Word Priest, who is mainly responsible for exorcising curses for civilians, appeasing souls, praying for purification, and can also deal with some intermediate monsters. ; Finally, there is Cang Yue's agent, who handles high-level monsters, is also responsible for medical treatment, blood therapy, delivery, and mainly protects weak women. "

"The Holy Sword Team is an army under the Purple Moon Saint. The people in it not only have devout beliefs, but also have an understanding of technology and a mysterious affinity. By using mysterious and huge mechanical giant swords, they can easily Tear the enemy into pieces and conduct an expedition to destroy the cult and those huge monsters, known as the church’s expeditionary force.”

"The Holy Sword Team includes three agencies: Divine Punishers, responsible for handling the lowest level monsters, protecting the safety of the people, and having the right to pursue and search monsters; Demon Hunters: relatively free, responsible for handling various monsters, and conducting long-distance searches. The last is Purple Moon Agent, your previous profession, responsible for the investigation and pursuit of mysterious situations in the entire city."

"The Judgment Office is a judicial department run by the Blood Moon Saints. Most of the people in it are from private law backgrounds. They are generally much colder than others and are less merciless in their speech. They not only deal with those who slander and slander the church. , will also monitor the situation within the church at all times, and often use dark and bloody methods to achieve his goals, showing little mercy even to his own people, and is known as the God of Death in the church."

"There are four types of agencies under the adjudication office: the most common one is the night watchman, who is responsible for the safety of the entire city at night and monitors the situation in the entire city through special means."

Hearing this, Sugar immediately thought of Logan's crow.

"After the night watchmen are the judges. You can understand these people as a group of executioners. They are an institution that specializes in dealing with some prisoners and traitors. You will want to know more about them. The third one is the blood knights. They are an elite. A small number of troops are specially used to deal with some emergencies, or hide some things in the dark, and capture people and hand them over to the adjudicator. "

"The last Blood Moon Agent, that kind of guy is a butcher. Usually when they are sent out, they are faced with some extreme events that kill all the witnesses."

"The heads of the ten agencies responsible for these ten agencies are called the Three Saints. Their positions are the same as our archbishops, but they rarely involve decision-making and politics. They mainly deal with mysterious aspects."

"The Church of the Holy Blood in each region will allocate some configurations of these institutions. Based on the size of the city, the types and number of institutions will be allocated to the regional bishop."

"Are these people uniformly deployed by the Holy See?" Su Ge asked.

Emilia nodded slightly and said meaningfully: "Of course, but the Holy See will listen more to the advice of our central archbishop."

Hearing this, Su Ge suddenly understood and felt relieved.

Next, Emilia's tone had a special fluctuation, and her cute voice with a slight nasal sound became more formal.

"In addition to these conventional systems, we also have two special organizations that are independent of the system."

Upon hearing this, Su Ge immediately pricked up his ears, looked serious, and listened attentively.

Emilia was very satisfied with Sugar's attitude and continued to explain: "The first of them is the Holy Blood Labyrinth."

"I finally came into contact with the Holy Blood Maze." Su Ge's heartbeat accelerated slightly.

"The Labyrinth of the Holy Blood is one of the core secrets of our Church."

Su Ge asked tentatively: "Are all the legends from the outside world true?"

"Some are true and some are false. After all, there are many people who have coveted the knowledge in our labyrinth for many years."

"What kind of place is the Holy Blood Maze?"

"The labyrinth is the birthplace of blood therapy and the church's research and development center for mystery and technology. We discovered a lot of unprecedented new knowledge there." When mentioning the Holy Blood Labyrinth, Emilia had a look of yearning on her face.

Su Ge pondered for a moment after hearing this, and asked tentatively: "Archbishop, according to the introduction in "Three Eternal Nights Before the Creation of the World", is this labyrinth..."

"Your reaction is very quick, yes. This maze is the dungeon maze where the corpse of the ancient demon is imprisoned." Emilia looked approvingly.

"But the goddess doesn't want humans to come into contact with those demons."

Emilia explained with lofty pride and glory on her face: "Yes, the goddess does not hope. But we are not ordinary humans, we are the people and believers of the goddess. Sooner or later, the labyrinth hidden underground will be destroyed. Ordinary people find out. As servants of the goddess, we naturally have to guard this labyrinth in advance and prevent ordinary people from contacting it, because only we, the believers of the goddess, can resist the temptation of the ancient demon body."

Su Ge said clearly: "That's it."

"The Holy Blood Labyrinth is an extremely dangerous and strange existence. The ancient demons, even the corpses left behind, have powerful abilities that cannot be understood and explained. We have been seeking to decipher the secrets on the corpses of ancient demons for many years and find the truth. However, as generation after generation, countless ancestors died and sacrificed, but there was no progress. "

"What happened next?"

"Later we discovered a kind of human that would undergo some mutations and become a special being. The cause of the mutation of that kind of human was caused by the parasites emitted by the ancient demon from the corpse. When the two come into close contact After that, something special resonates.”

"Witch!?" Su Ge was shocked and his eyes gradually widened.

Emilia nodded sternly: "Yes, witch. Those ancient demons are very evil. The parasites will only choose girls with pure hearts and kind hearts and beautiful postures to parasitize. Their purpose is to make us kill each other first through this method. Kill all the truly good people. Fortunately, we saw through his tricks. Over the years, we have been hunting witches not to kill them, but to bring them back to the Holy Blood Labyrinth and save them, because the tumors are very weird. If they are too far away from their mother body, they will turn into cancer at the slightest movement. Monster, but in the maze, we can easily remove the sarcoma without causing any mutations."

Hearing this, Sugar instantly understood. From the very beginning when he saw Hills and Bernice for the first time, the questions left by discovering the sarcoma through the perspective of gods were completely solved at this time.

It wasn't because he had a keen eye that he knew about the sarcoma.

In fact, the Church of the Holy Blood has known about it for a long time, and has even figured out a solution, but it has not been made public because it involves too many things.

"If that's the case, why do you want to make the witch's identity so evil?" Su Ge asked curiously.

Emilia said calmly: "Not everyone can recognize the nature of the witch. Many people in the church still believe that the witch is a huge threat and advocate that they be eliminated first and then extract the sarcoma. They believe that the witch has become an ancient There is no possibility of purification for the offspring of the devil.”

"In addition, this is tradition. When witches first appeared, no one could figure out what they were. Since they were threats, the church could only characterize them through this method. Over time, this concept has been deeply ingrained into people's minds. In perception, it can no longer be changed.”

Su Ge was deeply aware of the terrifying inertia brought about by this cognitive tradition. He looked up at Amelia and said seriously: "I admire you very much for your ability to jump out of that traditional concept."

A smile appeared on Amelia's lips: "You seem to have jumped out too."

Su Ge smiled bitterly: "I witnessed Her Majesty the Queen's transformation, but combined with Her Majesty the Queen's words and deeds, my understanding of the witch at that time was already broken."

"This experience is precious, you should cherish it." Emilia's eyes flashed with a unique light, and she appreciated Su Ge even more.
