Chapter 37 Thunder God Cult

The style of the Thunder God Cult is the same as the entire Thunder Empire. It is heroic and domineering. The stone gate of the church has a towering dome, carved with countless thunder shapes, and there are two lion statues that look like people at the door. You can feel it without getting close. To majesty.

With the help of the Phoenix Empire mission, Crete brought Philip, and the two of them entered the church of Thor's Cult, admiring the quaint murals on the walls of the church as they walked.

Although the content of the mural is very simple, it is nothing more than the story of the God of Thunder riding a Thunder Lion to fight in all directions, but Philip still read it with great interest.

Crete saw that Fili seemed to be very interested in the Thunder Lion, and asked, "Do you want to see the Thunder Lion?"

The soft-boned electric cat that Philip bought from Eric before was in the name of "Thunder Lion". Now that he saw the Thunder Lion on the mural, he was really curious, and his eyes lit up when he heard the words: " Does Your Highness have a solution?"

The description of Thunder Lion's appearance in the original book is very brief, but the description of Thunder Lion's human form is very detailed. It is a beauty with wild beauty. When Philip read the original book, he thought that this lion beauty would also enter the harem of Crete. In the end, I didn't mention what happened to Thunder Lion, and I don't know if the author forgot to write it.

Crete smiled and swaggered towards the priest in the church: "I am Crete, the Crown Prince of the Phoenix Empire Mission. Please inform me that I would like to pay my respects to the saint of your church."

Fili watched the priest leave with a strange expression on his face, and looked at Crete speechlessly: "Your Highness, do you think the Church of Thunder God allows the sub-sage of our empire to approach their national beast?"

"How do you know if you don't try?" Crete looked confident, "Maybe that holy lady has a kind heart."

After a while, the priest came back with an even more strange look on his face: "Your Highness Crete, Your Majesty is welcome."

Critter raised his eyebrows at Fili, meaning "You see, I'm right."

Could it be that Shuang is someone Kriter knows?Fili curled his lips, and muttered in his heart: "This Crete, why does it feel like he knew a lot of people before the plot happened? Did he really only read the outline of the plot?"

The two were invited to the interior of Thor's Cult, and came to a reception room, where a white-haired woman in a gorgeous purple robe with her eyes closed was already waiting.

The priest who led the way saluted the woman respectfully: "My lord, His Highness Critter and Your Excellency Mage Philip have already arrived, so I will take my leave first."

The white-haired woman's eyes were still closed, she nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

After the priest withdrew, the saint turned her head, faced Crete and Philip, and smiled slightly: "His Highness Crete of the Phoenix Empire, Your Excellency Philip, we meet for the first time, welcome to the Thunder God Cult."

Not someone Crete knew?Philip took a step back cautiously—the saint of Thor's Cult was not described much in the original book, because when Crete later dealt with her, it was already after the Black Phoenix rebellion.

In the early years, the Thunder Lion of the Thunder God Sect was acquired by the Phoenix family because of the loss of its cub. They have been using the cub's body to curse the Thunder Lion, which is connected by blood, which made the Thunder Lion weaker and weaker. I have been taking care of Thunder Lion personally, and never leave him for a moment, so there are almost no scenes in the original work.

However, what is certain is that within the territory of the Thunder Empire, this saintess is able to display her strength above the holy rank.

——Speaking of which, the Thunder Empire has become more and more hostile to the Phoenix Empire these years. Could it be because they know that the Phoenix family is cursing the Thunder Lion?

The more Fili thought about it, the more it seemed possible, and he couldn't help but took another step back.

If this saint wants to take Kriter as a hostage, then she can only run away quickly, don't hold Kriter back...

The saint seemed to have "seen" Philip's dodging action, she just smiled and said to Crete, "I don't know what your Highness Crete's coming to the Thor Cult is for?"

"Oh, I have long admired the name of Thunder Lion of your teaching, and this time it is rare to be an envoy to your country, so I specially want to see it."

The saint nodded and said apologetically: "It stands to reason that His Highness Crete has come all the way, so it is not impossible to meet Lord Divine Beast... It's just that Lord Divine Beast is in a bad mood recently and is quite irritable. If he sees a stranger, he may I will be a little excited. Your Highness Crete has not yet broken through the holy steps, so it is still not safe."

The implication is that the big lion in our family has a bad temper recently, and he goes to deliver food when he doesn't reach the holy steps?Fei Li thought to himself, according to the original book, the Thunder Lion should have been cursed more than ten years ago, and the curse lasted for more than ten years. Logically speaking, the Thunder Lion should have gradually weakened. The saint refused. Is their request because the Thunder Lion has a bad temper, or is it because the Thunder Lion is already weak?

Fili thought that Kriter's adventurous character would probably insist on taking a look at the Thunder Lion. After all, Kriter, who was already a sub-sage, would definitely not be in any danger with the help of the system.

Unexpectedly, Crete nodded in a kind manner: "Okay, it seems that I was rude. Thank you, Your Highness, for reminding me."

The saint nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile, "It's okay, Lord Beast's mood will improve after a while, and His Highness can visit the Thunder God Sect again."

"Haha, thank you, Your Royal Highness."

Fei Li figured out something wrong from the saint's words: what the saint said seemed certain that Thunder Lion would be able to recover after a while?Could it be that the Thunder God Sect has found a way to heal the Thunder Lion?

Does the Thunder Empire's repeated provocations against the Phoenix Empire have anything to do with this incident?

Fili was still thinking about this question when he returned to the embassy, ​​but when he looked up, he bumped into Earl Heyman's angry face.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince! The Thundering Empire is really deceiving!" Earl Heyman ignored Fili directly, and angrily said to Crete, "They didn't even prepare a welcome banquet! Protest against this behavior of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Thunder Empire!"

"Oh." Crete lazily responded with one word.

"Your Highness?!" Earl Heyman looked at Crete incredulously, "Don't you have any ideas?"

"Yes, that means it's time for us to have dinner." Crittera turned to the dining room with Philip, and waved at Earl Hayman perfunctorily, "The task of protesting to Queen Teresa is entrusted to you."

"Your Highness! Now we are discussing important national affairs!" Earl Heyman stopped Crete in grief, his eyes swishing like knives to Philip's face, "It is about the border security of the empire for ten years or even longer How can His Highness be so obsessed with beauty...beauty, and ignore business?!"

Fili felt that in Earl Hayman's eyes, he was just a dodder wrapped around the body of the upright Crown Prince of the Empire. Earl Hayman wanted to burn him like this.

Crete sighed: "My lord, even if we want to talk about business, we should let us finish our meal first, right? How about we tomorrow..."

Earl Heyman held his breath and stared.

Crete took a step back: "Okay, let's discuss it after dinner—but it can't affect Philip's rest."

Earl Heyman gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay, it's okay, Your Excellency Philip can go to rest first!"

Talk about something serious about your little lover!

Crete said as a matter of course: "That's not acceptable. We are scheduled to 'practice' tonight. As the external spokesperson of the Phoenix family, you should understand what I'm talking about, right?"

It was only then that Fili remembered that he hadn't been infused with the blood of the phoenix for a long time... Maybe it was because Crete had been infused too frequently before?He hasn't felt the consumption bottleneck of the phoenix's blood in his recent practice.

After getting rid of Earl Hayman, Critter and Fili enjoyed a thundering empire-style dinner together, and then said goodbye to Fili and went to the meeting hall of the embassy.

As soon as Fei Li returned to his room, he was taken aback by the person sitting on the table in the room foolishly:

"Eric? Why are you here?"

Philip's new friend in the Thunder Empire, the thief Eric, raised his legs with a smile: "As long as I think about it, there is no place I can't go."

"Just brag, if you have the ability, go to the Thunder Lion's den for a walk."

"Hey, let's forget about the holy rank... When I break through the holy rank, I will steal a handful of Thunder Lion's belly hair for you to see!"

"Then I might as well count on myself to break through the holy rank." Feili rolled his eyes, "What are you doing here? Didn't we leave in the morning?"

Eric said carelessly: "I heard that Her Majesty the Empress Dowager rejected the proposal to hold a welcome banquet for the Phoenix Empire mission, so I came here to comfort you."

"Oh? Do you mean Crown Princess Sophia?" Fili was taken aback. The Sophia in the original book didn't seem to express such obvious rejection of the Phoenix Empire.

——However, in the original book, Crete and Sophia are already sweating passionately together in the duel field, and it seems that there is no reference under the aura of love.

"According to my gossip... Well, in fact, we ordinary people don't feel any hostility towards your empire. I don't know what His Highness the Empress Dowager thinks about it."

It sounds like the lower levels of the Thunder Empire don't want to go to war with the Phoenix Empire... But let Crete handle such troublesome issues!

Fili sat down on the sofa, saw Eric take out another thing from his pocket, and said without surprise, "Where did you steal it this time?"

Eric chuckled, and a wretched smile flashed across his ordinary face: "I quietly...brought this from an alchemy workshop, but it's a good thing."

Alchemists are a branch of magicians in name, but in fact, unlike magicians who explore the laws of nature, alchemists pay more attention to the exploration of the laws of matter.Because the path of magicians is deeply rooted in the Phoenix Empire, some alchemists chose to come to the Thunder Empire to develop.

The Thunder God Sect maintains a neutral attitude no matter which side it is, so that alchemists can settle in the Thunder Empire with peace of mind. Of course, because the Thunder Empire as a whole advocates bloody and direct battles, alchemists are also an unpopular industry in the Thunder Empire up.

Philip has a good impression of alchemy - because it is the budding of modern science on earth!

He took the thing that looked like a trumpet, fiddled with it a few times, and asked uncertainly, "This is... a gramophone? Oh, something that can record sound?"

"Wow, how do you know?" Eric asked with wide eyes in surprise, "This 'sound receiver' is still in secret research and development, are your spies so strong?"

Philip sweated for a while, and said reservedly: "Haha, in fact, it's mainly because I've seen a lot."

"Forget it, I'm not interested in national affairs anyway. Let me tell you how to use this. Press here and here to record the surrounding sounds, and press here to play the previously recorded sounds again. Come out, how about it? Put it in the boudoir or bathroom of the noble ladies..."

Fili has long been used to Eric's outbursts of wretchedness from time to time, so he directly ignored the second half of his speech, fiddled with the microphone, and said in admiration, "Indeed, it's quite powerful. How did this thing do it?"

I haven't seen anything like a wire, and this world probably hasn't explored electromagnetic induction. What is the principle of this thing like a phonograph?

Eric said triumphantly: "Hey, the crystal nucleus of the magic sound vulture is inlaid in this sound collecting tube. The alchemists convert the sound into magic power and store it in the crystal nucleus, and then release it when needed."

"Well, can this crystal nucleus be used repeatedly?"

"Of course you can, but because the magic power reserve of the crystal nucleus is limited, the sound you recorded is too long, and the previously recorded sound will be washed out later."

"That's not bad." Philip fiddled with it enthusiastically, imagining the use of this thing-it felt that he could start from this thing, develop the audio-visual industry, record all kinds of royal operas and border folk songs, and then sell them to those who have no conditions Nobles to hear...

"To tell you the truth, I actually thought about putting one in the bedroom of Crown Princess Sofia." Eric suddenly lowered his voice, and said mysteriously, "According to gossip, Her Highness the Crown Princess has a secret lover... ..."

Fili was stunned, who was the first reaction to be so bold, dare to pry the corner of Crete?

"What happened later? Do you know who that lover is?"

"No." Eric became frustrated, "I must report this to the head of the group, but when I greeted the head of the group, I was beaten up by the head of the group and almost broke my leg!"

Fili laughed.That's right, Leonard is now a serious member of the Thunder Empire military, how could he allow his subordinates to inquire about the privacy of the Crown Princess?

The two were chatting happily when they suddenly heard a knock on the door, and then came the voice of Crete: "Fili, are you asleep?"

Eric's complexion changed, and he rushed to the window quickly, and told Philip while turning the window: "Don't let your highness know that I'm coming! He must tell the leader if he knows!"

Who, who is my highness...

Philip came up with this idea out of time, coughed to cover up quickly, put the microphone in his hand on the window sill, closed the window, and then opened the door of the room: "Are you going to sleep, what's up, Your Highness?"

Crete glanced at the room without any trace, finally stared at the window for a while, and then snorted in his heart: Don't let me catch me next time, how dare a mere thief covet his little magician?

Then he smiled and said kindly: "Have you forgotten? I will infuse you with the blood of the phoenix tonight."

Fili was taken aback for a moment before he realized that what Crete had told Earl Heyman before was not an excuse?

Crete walked into Fili's bedroom generously, and smiled at Fili: "Have you taken a shower yet? Go to bed and lie down."

Since Fili suspected that Crete was bent, they hadn't reinfused with the blood of the phoenix. Fili didn't know why he felt a little heartbeat in the scene he was used to.

Fili counted the prime numbers within one hundred in his mind before calming himself down. Lying on the bed, he rarely asked the system nervously: "Tong, please help me to see, the majestic Crown Prince of the Cretan Empire, shouldn't he Will you take advantage of me?"

system:"……"

Ha ha.

When I woke up, it was already the next morning.

Philip rubbed his waist habitually, walked to the window and opened it, took a deep breath of the fresh morning air, and said to the system with full energy: "Tong, morning!"

System: "Morning, host!"

Just as Fei Li was about to turn around and go out, he suddenly found the microphone on the window sill last night, took a look at it, and said in surprise:

"Speaking of which, I seem to have turned on the recording last night and forgot to turn it off?"

system:"………………"

Oh, it's over.
