Schutz III

"This church was built by the order of the No.15 Patriarch of the family. He was the No.1 Patriarch after the family moved here and led the people to convert to Christianity." Welf looked very nostalgic, "That is the lowest church in the family. It's a period of time when it's trendy, but it's also the most glorious time in the family!"

Listening to Welf's low-pitched explanation, Schultz only felt a little tangled in his heart. Aren't the lowest ebb and the most brilliant, these are contradictory, is Welf wrong or something?At this moment, Nicole suddenly pulled Schultz's hand, and pointed to a mural on the wall, "Schultz, look at that picture."

Shutz followed Nicole's finger, and he saw a picture that was quite familiar to him, the seventh of the "7 pictures" in "The Book of Abraham", King Herod slaughtered the Holy Child.I saw a king standing on the screen with a big knife in his hand. He was ordering the soldiers in front of him to kill many innocent babies. Sad mothers knelt at the feet of the ruthless soldiers and cried and begged, while other soldiers were busy killing the innocent babies. The blood of the slain babies was collected in a large vessel in which the moon and sun bathed.

However, Schultz frowned. Why is there such a painting in the family church?And since there is a seventh picture here, are there other paintings in the "7 pictures" here?Schulz observed carefully, and found the fourth and sixth of the "7 pictures" on the left front and right rear walls respectively.

The fourth depicts a young man wearing a hat with a pair of wings.In his hand he holds a cane with two snakes twined around it.He brandished his cane, posing for a fight.He is Mercury, the god of messengers.In front of him, an old man with wide spread wings flew towards him. The old man had an hourglass on his head, and he was holding a death scimitar tightly in both hands. It seemed that he was about to use this knife to slash Mercury. feet.He is Pluto, the god of death.

The sixth picture shows a beautiful rose tree growing out of a hollow oak tree. The rose tree is full of flowers and stands flourishing in the middle of a wonderful garden.A fountain sprang up from under the tree, spouting a white liquid, and the liquid flowed down the path in the garden to the deepest place.A group of people were squatting in the garden and digging about, as if they were looking for something, but they were blind, so no one found anything, and no one realized that what they were looking for was slipping from their hands.

Welf only thought that Schulz and the others were admiring the exquisite murals, so he went to the side to find the pastor.Watching Welf walk away, Shutz patted Byrne's sleeve and asked, "Did you find anything else strange?"

"Other strange places?" Byrne asked back, "What do you mean?"

Schulz was speechless, "Don't play dumb for me." He looked at Byrne with a serious expression, "You know what I mean."

Byrne smiled helplessly, "Do you insist on asking about this matter?" He looked at Schulz's silver-gray pupils, his eyes were extremely soft, "Can't I leave it to Sidi?"

Shutz shook his head, "If it's just because of the blood in the bread, you can give it to your good friend; but now it has been shown that it is related to alchemy, I don't think I can't participate in it."

He insisted, "Don't forget that I am the patriarch of Leviathan. And Leviathan, made by alchemy."

"Okay," Byrne nodded, "Sidi will probably know Jacob Suwell's secret today."

——————Wa is the dividing line for Welf to meet the pastor—————

Welf walked into the side room of the church, and saw a woman in black priest clothes sitting on a chair with her back to him in the dim light.

"Samantha," Welf called.

The woman stood up from her chair at the sound and turned to look at Welf.

"Here you are, Welf," said the woman.

Looking at the woman's obviously pale face, Welf became a little worried, "Are you okay, Samantha, why do you look so bad?"

The woman smiled lightly and shook her head, "It's nothing, but I always feel that the smell of blood here is getting stronger and stronger recently."

Welf's face turned gray when he heard that, "Recently, the young master has indeed moved more frequently."

The woman didn't answer, but sat back on the chair again, still turning her back to Welf.

"Samantha, how about you leave Saint-Sauville first?" Welf was a little anxious when he saw this, "Go to Vienna for a vacation first, how about recuperating?"

Samantha laughed softly, "Why, can Vienna let me recover?"

Welf was silent.

"Don't be kidding, Welf." Samantha stopped laughing, "Don't you realize that the family is slowly going to ruin? Master, he has changed." She turned around, "Maybe at the beginning, Master was for To restore the glory of the family, but now, after he hooked up with those elders with ulterior motives in Leviathan, the young master is indulging in the temptation of eternal life."

"He wants to obtain eternal life that none of his ancestors could achieve!"

"Master, he..."

"Stop telling me about the young master's difficulties, Welf." Samantha's voice became severe, "I'm afraid you won't believe it yourself!"

"I..." Welf's lips moved, but he couldn't refute the other party's words firmly.

"You go back." Samantha said, stood up and walked towards the door, "Didn't some distinguished guests come, I'll go out and have a look."

"They don't believe in it."

"Does it matter if you believe or not?" Samantha smiled weakly, "There has been no difference for a long time."

Those who believe are still in the dark, so what if they don't believe!Oh, the key lies in the human heart!

Welf watched Samantha go out, but found himself speechless.Perhaps, as she said, even she doesn't believe those excuses anymore!

After Schulz and Byrne exchanged opinions, they continued to look at the decoration inside the church. It has to be said that the Suwell family perfectly integrated national characteristics with Christian tradition and Roman style, and all the relief decorations looked extremely pleasing to the eye.

At this time, a gentle and somewhat weak female voice suddenly sounded, "What do you guys think of this place?" A woman wrapped in a black robe came out, followed by Welf, a housekeeper with an unhappy expression.

"The church is beautifully decorated," Schulz replied.

"Really." The woman nodded, "I'm Samantha Suwell, the pastor here. Welcome to St. Suwell's Church."

"Hi, Pastor Samantha." Shutz bowed slightly.

"Oh, what a polite child." Samantha covered her lips and smiled, "I heard that you don't believe in Christianity."

Hearing the woman's questioning but affirmative tone, Schultz thought that Welf had told the woman some information about them, so he nodded, "Yes, we believe in materialism."

As soon as Schulz said this, Nicole burst out laughing; Blaise also suppressed the smile; Byrne remained calm, waiting for what Schulz would say next.Shutz turned his head slightly, looking at the expressions on the faces of the three people behind him, but he felt no pressure in his heart.Doesn't alchemy focus on the equivalent exchange of matter and matter? From this level, he didn't say anything wrong!

Samantha kindly didn't dwell on this issue, but asked, "May I take the liberty to ask your name?"

Schultz was stunned for a moment, apparently not expecting a woman to ask this question, but he realized in the next second, "Of course." He said, "I'm Schultz. Leviathan."

Samantha and Welf were shocked at the same time when they heard Shutz's name, their pupils shrank invisibly. "Leviathan...?" Samantha murmured. "This surname is really rare." She laughed. "Are you British?"

"That's right." Schultz nodded, "My friend and I are on vacation in France."

"yes."

———————Wa is the dividing line between Jacob and Sidi—————

In the study, Jacob was still standing next to Sidi.He was going to tell Sidi his wish to summon him.

"Do you belong to this world?" he asked Sidi.

"Why, does it matter?"

"That's all right."

Sidi laughed, "What if I'm from another world?"

"Then I will tell you about the history of the Suwell family in detail, so that you may be able to better understand my wish."

Sidi became a little interested, he wanted to know what kind of justification this excited and greedy human being could find for his desire.So he nodded for Jacob to start talking.

"The Suvir family originated from the Morava River and has been among the senior nobles of the Principality of Moravia for generations; the family army once conquered southwestern Slovakia, most of Lower Austria and northern Hungary for the Principality in the 8th and 9th centuries, respectively. It can be said to be a great military exploit! Of course, this is mainly due to the powerful magic power and superb alchemy of the family ancestors!"

As if remembering the demeanor of his ancestors back then, Jacob's face flushed with excitement, but immediately he frowned gloomily, "But in the late Middle Ages, the various outstanding abilities of the family were questioned by everyone and... Scared. They have rumors that the Suwell family is a cursed family who sold their souls to the devil in order to gain evil power." Jacob began to get excited, "They...those stupid ordinary people actually put the family as a The power of the principality to expand its territory and defend its dignity is called the power of evil!"

"What a bunch of ignorant things!" he swore.

Sidi continued to listen with the corners of her mouth bent.

"Then, these ignorant idiots took up swords and even farming tools one after another, and used the crowd to suppress us; later, in order to maintain the stability of the rule, the king of the Principality actually expelled our whole family from the country. As a last resort, Su Weir moved to Aix, and defeated the Rodsbergs and Schwarzenbergs to get the castle."

"However, Su Weier's nightmare is not over yet!"

The author has something to say:

Mr. Ergeng finally came out, although it is already the second day...
