Chapter 265 The Front Gate is the FastestWe will skip for now the story of how the seafood paved the way for Anti along the way. Anti arrived near the Coral Church complex. Around the church he discovered the cemetery. This surprised him a little. The sea people, who evolved from marine animals, naturally had no custom of burial. The appearance of such a tomb here might fit the atmosphere of the church, but it was not so reasonable. When he walked into the cemetery out of curiosity, he saw a figure wearing a tattered robe, the ends of which were basically torn into tattered strips of cloth. The blue hue and the symbol of the Light Church faith seemed to reveal the other party's identity. When Anti got closer, he slowly stood up and turned to look at Anti. His face was skinny and his knuckles were distinct. He looked very fragile and would fall apart with just a little force. "Human? It's actually a human?" Seeing Anti, the other party seemed very surprised and said in shock. The accent was from the southern part of the Mixed Dream Realm, just slightly different, probably due to the changing times, but Anti had a translator so it didn't matter. "I didn't expect to see people here. Didn't they say that all humans were driven out?" Anti walked towards the other party, dragging the giant anglerfish lantern.
The man took two steps back and gently grasped a simple sickle beside him. "It's the same for most people. Clergymen... have a little chance, but not much. I can only stay here and guard this cemetery." Anti stopped and did not continue to press: "Is this a human cemetery?" "Humans brought some customs with them. Human believers who joined the Light Religion made efforts to open up a burial site outside the church..." Seeing that Anti didn't seem to be planning to attack, the man was slightly relieved, but he still took the sickle in his hand. The big lantern in Anti's hand was scary to look at. "Isn't dying here the same as being buried at sea?" Anti asked casually. "Haha, good idea. This is indeed popular among the sea people. Their custom after death is to leave the body for relatives and friends to share and eat. It would be a terrible thing if there were no sea people to eat the body after death." The man said after a somewhat sinister laugh. This custom is obviously very shocking to normal modern humans, but it does make some sense to the sea people. It's like a banquet after death, and the person sitting at the table is yourself. It feels like a joke from hell. "We can't quite accept the custom of having our bodies swallowed by another group of intelligent beings. So we chose to bury them..." "But isn't Helvendes already broken now?" "Yes, I collapsed." The other party said in a hoarse voice, and then fell silent without saying anything more. Anti, who was used to people talking to themselves, was still a little uncomfortable. So Anti walked around the cemetery and came back. As expected, there was nothing in this cemetery, but it was noticed that some of the graves had been dug up earlier, and the graves on the periphery were basically a mess. When he returned to his original position, the gravekeeper was sitting on a tombstone. When he saw Antii coming back, he took the initiative to ask, "Are you the human from the ship that fell?" Anti did not deny it. "Ah, is the world outside still okay? Is it still the fucked-up era with a large number of wandering gods wreaking havoc and no one having a place to stand?" "It's quite peaceful. Except for some places where there are still wars, there's nothing much going on overall." Anti shrugged, even though he often encountered difficult things. But he must think that he is special and that the world is a beautiful place.
Although the mixed dream world is still very chaotic, it may be better than those who are left over from the chaotic world of wandering gods. "Peace... Then you don't seem to be here for refuge. In other words, the Great Whirlpool has some kind of mission and expectation for you. It's really amazing. Could it be that the people who save Havendeth in the end will be the despised humans?" The other party muttered to himself in a low voice, and suddenly laughed sinisterly again at the end. "I don't know. If you are a clergyman here, do you know where the current Pope is? I need to find him for something. How can I find him as quickly as possible?" Anti was not interested in these things, but asked. The gravekeeper thought for a moment: "Pope? If a human goes deep into the present-day Sea Light Cathedral alone, there is only one outcome: being captured and thrown into the lower library of Havendes. I suggest you think about it carefully." "So you know?" Anti only cared about this. The gravekeeper sighed softly: "Why won't you listen to my advice... Well, since we are fellow tribesmen whom I haven't seen for a long time, I will tell you." He pointed to the back of the cemetery. "Behind the hut where I usually live, I can enter the church safely without being discovered. Then I need to go around the coral reef cliff to enter the main building. I don't know where the Pope is on weekdays, but if you find that the Sea Light Corner above the church hall emits a light curtain that affects the entire parish, it is probably the Pope's routine prayer. You can find it in the hall, such as now." "Is the hall the tallest and brightest one? Then can't we get there directly through the main entrance?" Anti glanced at the church building in the distance. "The main gate is closed all year round. Even the followers of Guangjiao don't go there. This is also an arrangement made to prevent foreign invasion. At the same time, although the road from the main gate can lead directly to the hall, it is also heavily guarded. You can see it if you look secretly here. Going there directly is to seek death." The gravekeeper explained. "So the main gate can indeed be reached directly?" Anti used the same sentence structure to grasp the key point again. The gravekeeper was a little speechless after being taunted by Anti: "Yes, you can." "That's good." After saying this, Anti turned around and walked towards the church gate. The gravekeeper looked at Anti's back, shook his head and sighed. I've lived here for so many years, but the first time I met someone of my own race I was so puzzling. But there is no need to not understand. In today's world in the Deep Ocean Center, there is nothing that needs to be understood. Everyone has gone crazy. The humans outside may have survived the chaotic world of wandering gods that their ancestors have talked about, but the situation is probably not much better. For miracles are obviously not forbidden. People who come to the Deep Ocean Center are forbidden to use miracles, in order to prevent the power that can easily get out of control from spreading in the Deep Ocean Center. As long as the miracle begins to be used, even if all believers ensure that they do not lose control, the wandering thoughts will still spontaneously gather those monsters called wandering gods. Although, the so-called prohibition regulations are no longer important. Compared to the parade of gods, there is an abyss more terrifying here. The former paradise and those kind and simple sea creatures, after going mad, can become more barbaric than humans. The gravekeeper sighed and shook his head. In any case, it would be good to preserve this cemetery that his family had obtained permission to open in the early years. His family has been buried here for generations. Even during the most chaotic times in Havendes, when he is the only one left, he still insists on staying here. Almost no sea creatures still remember that there is a human here. He turned around and looked at the work he had been doing.
A grave, a grave dug for yourself. In this world, he now only hopes that he can rest in peace. As for all the other waves, they will not be able to touch his heart which is dry even though it is deep in the sea. Boom! A loud noise broke the silence. The gravekeeper turned his head sharply and looked towards the church entrance. The door that had been closed for a long time was forcibly smashed open. The hard door seemed to be crumpled into a ball and fell in front of the church avenue like a badminton. The entire Sea Light Cathedral was shocked and awakened by such brutal behavior. Anti stepped slowly into it. In front of him, countless enemies were personally showing him the way. (End of this chapter)
