Chapter 58 Crowds of People

Before I knew it, it was already late at night.

Shaking his groggy head, Lei Luo murmured: "Perhaps we should think of ways to find some stimulating food in the future to help stay up late."

Thinking like this, Lei Luo sat back on the stool and started practicing the same energy magnetic field every day.

Now that he has acquired knowledge related to spiritual arts and strong pressure techniques, and during this trip, he also realized that he is weak and has insufficient self-protection ability, so the most important thing before Lei Luo is naturally to do his best to train the energy magnetic field and learn as soon as possible. More basic academics.

The reason why many senior scholars no longer exercise the energy magnetic field is because once they obtain a media partner and the nature of the energy magnetic field changes, the growth method of the scholars' energy magnetic field will completely depend on the talent characteristics of the media partner.

However, during the period of enlightenment students before this, the scholars' basic energy magnetic field still needs to be strengthened through their own hard work and little by little training.

the next morning.

After Lei Luo woke up, the first thing he did was come to the experimental table. After being heated by an alcohol lamp overnight, the suction liquid had completely evaporated, leaving a layer of fine black dry powder at the bottom of the vessel.

Holding his breath, Lei Luo carefully collected the black powder and placed it on the weight scale. No more, no less, exactly seventy-three grams!

"Very good!"

Lei Luo was in a good mood after harvesting seventy-three grams of black magic iron.

After tidying up the experimental equipment, Lei Luo walked out of the house to wash up, but was shocked to find that Gu Bo, Bai Ling, and Lianyi had left before him, leaving some breakfast on the table. This was unprecedented. You know Lei Luo is usually the first to get up every day!

Suddenly, Lei Luo thought of Gu Bo's instructions last night.

"In the end what happened?"

Frowning, Lei Luo sat at the dining table and ate breakfast.

…

When Lei Luo walked out of the house, he clearly noticed the changes in the college.

Far more church knights than usual, their armor seemed to have been carefully polished and shiny, were patrolling the academy with serious expressions.

In addition, countless civilians from the main city of St. Grant's Castle were neatly dressed and poured into the Grant School of Nature early in the morning. They had obviously set out at night, with a look of divine longing in their eyes. I prayed while walking, as if I felt extremely holy even if I took one more breath of the air of Grant School of Nature!

"What's going on here?"

Shocked, Lei Luo had never seen such a scene.

Gorgeous carriages came one after another, and the nobles near St. Grant's Castle also came to the Grant Academy of Natural Sciences.

These guys who usually only care about titles and gold coins, and of course occasionally clamor to learn about the first + night rights of the Principality of Sealand, are talking to each other in low voices at the moment. With the support of servants and guards, they are arrogant and go to the grid together. Walk to the square of Orchid College of Natural Science.

Realizing that something big seemed to have happened in the college during his absence, Lei Luo hurriedly followed his instructor's request and ran towards the college square.

on the square.

Crowds of people, this description couldn’t be more appropriate!

If there were about a thousand first-year students and senior students gathered in the square when the new semester started, which in Lei Luo's eyes was already overcrowded, then at this moment, it was indeed a sea of ​​people.

The wave was raging, numbering at least tens of thousands. However, from outside the campus, there was a steady stream of people pouring into the square, eager to force themselves into the crowd and try their best to get as close to the high platform as possible.

From time to time, strong church knights walked through the crowd to maintain order.

In the crowd, Lei Luo was like a small boat in the stormy waves. He tried hard to see what was happening further ahead, but he couldn't squeeze in at all. Like a tiny ant, he could only move around with the crowd involuntarily, and his breathing became difficult. Extremely difficult.

"I heard that Archbishop Clare from the Cathedral of Light in the Holy City of Aurora will demonstrate the miracle of light at Glen Nature at nine o'clock this morning. It is truly a great era and a great event."

"I have lived my life to witness a miracle of light with my own eyes!"

"Lord, forgive my sins. Only by bathing in your light can my sin-filled soul get a chance of redemption and gain a moment of peace..."

Lei Luo, who heard the prayers of people around him from time to time and was sweating profusely due to overcrowding, was shocked to find Xiao Kang not far away, who was also sweating profusely due to the crowd!

This little fat guy with naturally curly hair was walking around with the crowd at a loss, with an innocent and helpless look on his face, as small and helpless as himself.

"Xiao Kang!"

Lei Luo shouted desperately.

Xiao Kang was stunned for a moment when he heard someone calling him, and then he found Lei Luo and jumped up excitedly. The two squeezed together as much as they could.

"Hoo Chi, Hoo Chi, what on earth happened?"

Lei Luo panted, looked at the crowd around him, and asked in confusion.

Xiao Kang said in astonishment: "Don't you know yet? Seven days ago, a red-clothed Archbishop came to the academy, entered the Royal Research Institute, and checked out all the books that blasphemed the God of Light. Today, these books that blaspheme the God of Light will be burned publicly in the academy. of books.”

Seven days ago?

At that time, Lei Luo was still in the Furnace Mountains and naturally didn't know about this.

Hearing that books that blasphemed the God of Light were to be burned publicly in the academy, Lei Luo said in disbelief: "The academy was funded and established by the Royal Family of England, so how could there be books that blasphemed the God of Light? Didn't the Royal Commission argue with the church? Did you get the consent of the royal family to do this?”

Seeing Lei Luo roaring with red face, Xiao Kang quickly covered Lei Luo's mouth and looked around nervously.

Fortunately, there were too many people around and it was so chaotic that no one cared about Lei Luo at all.

"Are you crazy? The other party is the church!"

Xiao Kang groaned and said matter-of-factly: "If the church seriously investigates, are there any books in the academy that cannot be burned? All the starting points of the academy's research are based on atheism and the fact that the Creator of Light is not omnipotent. , this in itself is the greatest blasphemy against the Creator of Light..."

Lei Luo opened his mouth and was stunned. He really didn't expect that he would face such a bad situation as soon as he came back.

About two hourglasses passed!

Under the bright sun at noon, many people fainted in the crowd rushing to enter the academy square. After being carried away for treatment by the light knights who maintained order, more people crowded into the square.

There were several times more people than in the early morning. They were densely packed and crowded, with no end in sight. Even the space to breathe had become a luxury. It was really difficult for Xiao Kang to be able to stand properly here.

Surround yourself with people.

At this moment, Lei Luo fully felt his own insignificance and insignificance, and his clothes had already been wet with sweat.

"It's the Red-robed Hierarch!"

"My Lord!"

"Woooooooo..."

Outside the crowd, someone unknown gave out a high-pitched cheer of joy, and it was like a wave. Lei Luo and Xiao Kang in the crowd didn't even see what was happening outside. Others around them must have been as confused as themselves, but the excitement was The howling prayers and excited tears seemed to be contagious and spread to the distance.

Prayers, excitement, cries.

In an instant, countless believers in the huge square were set on fire!

As he was so excited that tears filled his eyes, Lei Luo seemed to see the people gathered in the square. Their faith and emotions gathered into a torrent, rushing straight into the sky.

Even Lei Luo and Xiao Kang, two confused children who did not know what they were doing, and two staunch atheist scholars, seemed to be infected by the emotions of the crowd at this moment, and could not help but express excitement and sadness.

It seems that he was born a sinner, and the reason why he is still alive is just to complete his own redemption.

"What's wrong with you?"

Lei Luo wiped the tears from his eyes and looked at Xiao Kang, who was also in tears, and at the thousands of excited and crying believers around him.

"Oh, oh, oh, I'm a sinner."

Xiao Kang confessed with tears in his eyes: "In the future, I will donate one-third, no, one-half, of all my gold coins to support the church and save myself!"

Lei Luo looked at Xiao Kang dumbfounded.

However, it seems that because of the mention of gold coins, Xiao Kang also became more awake. There were "pop" and "pop" sounds, and Xiao Kang rounded his arms and slapped himself on the head and face, showing no pity for his fierce appearance.

Xiao Kang cried and said: "What nonsense did I just say? God of Light, please forgive your poor loyal believers. What I just said didn't count. Just let me punish myself for breaking my promise." Punish yourself, please don’t pity me, I deserve it..."

The excited crowd was like a torrent, with wave after wave of shouts and prayers.
