Since the end of the Southern Civil War, all the church forces in the entire Southern Territory have entered a kind of window period. The most influential Holy Light Church has been blocked in Luan City, and the missionary activities have also stopped. Outside the church, those churches of alien gods that were originally relatively weak and scattered quickly sensed the danger and took the initiative to stop or reduce the frequency of activities in the southern border. It can be said that with the end of the war in the southern border, the people on this land have Faith spreading activities have essentially become a vacuum - the only thing still spreading is the "Holy Light Protestant Faith" that slowly penetrates from Cecil City, or the "Pure Holy Light Doctrine".
With the start of the "public opinion propaganda offensive", the slowly penetrating Protestant faith will quickly fill this vacuum zone. Correspondingly, the influence of the old Holy Light Church will be affected in this process. An extremely heavy blow.
Cecil's printing machine started running.
An overwhelming amount of newspapers and promotional materials are covering the entire southern border. Articles revealing and discussing the Holy Light Church appear in front of people every hour and every second.
In the writing of Godwin Orlando and Wright, these articles analyze the behemoth of the Holy Light Church in an extremely cold, clear and straightforward way. For the first time, the Holy Light Church is not a A superior and extraordinary force is placed in front of everyone, not as a holy group with a divine aura, but as an ordinary force that relies on strength to maintain and relies on money to operate. After removing all the luxurious After the rhetoric and cover-up, people saw for the first time how the church worked - how it controlled the spread of theological knowledge, how it maintained the purity of its top members, how it recruited new people, how it amassed wealth, how it maintained force to ensure its status, How to make up lies to defeat competitors...
After all the details were dissected, every aspect of the operation of the Holy Light Church became unholy.
On this basis, news from Lu'an City began to quietly appear on all prominent pages of newspapers as current affairs news interspersed in the "popular science column".
As the main writer of the news page, Godwin Orlando's writing has shown great power. His articles do not require any curse words or any intense emotional expressions. He just By quietly stating everything about the Holy Light Church, thousands of people have been awakened.
However, newspapers alone are not enough.
In Cecil City, located in a special building on the edge of the mage district, Jipri was trying to calm down her mood.
This building was originally part of the Magic Technology Research Institute, but with the establishment of the Magic Network Communication-Broadcasting Complex System, this building was separated and became an independent Magic Network Communication-Broadcasting Complex. The control center, and on its upper level, technicians worked overtime to carry out renovation and construction. Based on the experience of the first Magic Network broadcast, it was transformed into Cecil's first practical"Studio".
Although she thought she had a good psychological quality, and although she had strong self-confidence before, at this moment, Jipuli still felt an uncontrollable tension filling her heart.
She sat in the corridor outside the studio, looking through the window at the magic technicians inside who were making final adjustments to the equipment - inside was a light blue room, half of which was What he left for himself was decorated like an ordinary and warm living room, with simple and comfortable sofas, round tables, and soft and bright lights. The other half of the room seemed to be a huge and complex magic laboratory: three specially-made Large magic network terminals are placed in three different directions. Metal beams covered with magic patterns extend from the base of those magic network terminals to the control seat at the end of the room. A row of seats and rune devices are set up there. Control the lighting of the entire room and the status of each Magic Network terminal, and when the "program" starts, those seats will be filled with technicians with serious faces and ready to prepare.
Jipli knew that her job later would be to sit on the sofa at one end of the room, facing those huge and complex magic machines and a group of expressionless staff, to read her manuscript. .
Except for the machines, technicians and a certain guest, she will not have any other communication objects or audiences in front of her. However, in fact... countless people in the entire southern territory will see herself at the same moment—— Through the "public magic network terminals" set up in four new industrial cities and a large number of satellite towns, his face will appear in front of all of them.
She had never seen that many people in her life.
Jipli, who has always been proud of her eloquence, is a little afraid of speaking for the first time in her life.
Just when Jipuli was feeling nervous and anxious, a brisk voice suddenly came from the side, interrupting the witch lady's random thoughts: "Are you nervous? If you are nervous, just eat some candy~ "
Jipley was startled and looked back hurriedly, only to see Miss Rebecca Cecil standing next to her. This aristocratic lady with an honorable surname was wearing a Wearing a loose white robe of a technician, she did not look elegant and reserved like a noble lady. She looked at herself with sparkling eyes, holding a handful of candy bars in her hand, and was handing it to her: "Here, one You won’t be allowed to eat when you enter the studio.”
Jipley wanted to salute and refuse politely, but by the time she reacted, Rebecca had already stuffed the candy into her mouth. Inside.
“It’s delicious—there’s honey in it!” Rebecca said with a smile, “Eat a candy bar when you’re nervous. This is what Aunt Hetty taught me. It’s particularly useful.”
p>
"Thank you... thank you..." Jipuli held the candy in her mouth at a loss. After a moment, she realized what she was doing and thanked her hurriedly, "You are such a kind person."
Rebecca The witch girl's reaction shocked her: "Wow - this is the first time someone has said such a thing to me so seriously!"
Jipley was a little dazed for a moment, but just when she was just thinking about what to say, Rebecca had already jumped to the next topic: "By the way, are you ready? You seemed to have been stuck twice during the rehearsal before. "
"I...I think it's okay," Jipri said hurriedly, and then nodded vigorously, "I must be fine."
"It's almost okay. -My ancestors have said that the most important thing is to act on the spot. Even if you can’t remember the words, you can make up the words on the spot.” Rebecca shook her head and said, “And don’t look at you being nervous, maybe I will follow you. The person who is going on stage together is more nervous than you."
Jipli couldn't help but look back at the temporary partner who was going to appear with her.
On a chair not far away, a two-meter-tall, extremely strong man with a scar on his eye was closing his eyes to rest, looking calm and indifferent.
A translucent luminous little girl was floating nearby, trying hard to make faces to scare people passing by - unfortunately, she was too intimidating and failed even once.
Kipley was a little frustrated: "...I don't think Mr. Wright is nervous at all, and neither is Miss Emily."
Rebecca also noticed this, She wanted to comfort Jipri again, but before she could say anything, the device-ready bell suddenly rang.
Jipli raised her head, looked at the debugger who was walking out of the studio, and the controller who was walking into the room, and then took a deep breath.
She stood up and nodded to Rebecca: "I'm in."
Rebecca showed a bright smile, clenched her fists on her chest and shook her head: " Come on!"
After sitting at the focus of the three magic network terminals, Jipuli felt that her whole body was a little light, and an unreal feeling gripped her heart, making it uncomfortable. He jumped up and down quickly.
She was still nervous as hell.
Wright also walked into the studio. This man, who was so strong that he did not look like a priest at all, sat down opposite Jiprey. He showed a smile, and Emily, who was floating behind him, also smiled. A hint of a smile.
At this moment, Jipri felt that her tension seemed to be relieved.
She looked at Emily, watching this spirit girl with big eyes and a pure smile obediently disappear into the resonance of the holy light beside Wright, and suddenly realized what she was here to do.
She felt ready.
"The equipment is in place - five seconds to start."
A sound came from a certain direction. Jipri did not pursue the direction of the sound, but He sat down on the sofa and turned his head towards the three complex, huge and cold magic machines.
She recalled the first time she used a crappy "divination spell" to fool a businessman in exchange for a full ration for the next day.Nervous as hell, just like today.
"...four...three..."
When she was wandering in the back streets of the southern border, among adventurers and mercenaries, she always used She lied to protect herself and used sweet words to deceive others, but in the beginning, she didn't want to lie to anyone at all. She just wanted to have a full meal at that time.
"...two...one..."
Now, she has enough to eat.
She's going to tell the truth today.
“Start!”
A smile appeared on Jipri’s face, which was sweet and friendly:
“Hello, everyone, I am Jipri, You can call me Miss Witch.
"I think you must be very curious about the scene before your eyes and what a strange person wants to do when he suddenly appears in the magic projection. I believe everyone will know this issue soon.
"Welcome to the first episode of "Witch Time". Today, we are going to talk about what happened in Luan City..."
A room next to the studio , a magic network terminal used for testing was activated. As the holographic projection crystal was filled with the radiance of magic, a stable and clear image appeared above the crystal. Along with it, Jiprey appeared. Sweet voice.
Gawain looked at the pictures and sounds in front of him, turned his head slightly, and said to Hetty beside him: "She performed well - the person recommended by Amber is still okay."
< p>"It's indeed better than expected," Hetty nodded, "As long as we can maintain the current state."At this moment, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open by someone with a happy face. Rebecca walked in with brisk steps, and said happily as soon as she entered the room: "Master Ancestor! The latest feedback is back - the Magic Network terminals everywhere have been successfully started!"
Then she He also noticed the test audio and video in the room, and immediately looked happy: "Miss Jipri did a great job!"
"Well..." Gawain touched his chin, but suddenly he was a little confused, "But speaking of this, I remember that this program was called "Cecil's Miscellaneous Talk"... This is the name I gave it..."
Rebecca was stunned for a moment: "Hey, is that so? ?"
"...It seems that she has forgotten the lyrics, but she has made up one now." Gawain turned back to look at the test sound and video in the center of the room with a strange expression, "The mention on the table Even the word cards didn't save it...but the name she made up is pretty good."
Witch Time is just Witch Time...it has the characteristics of this world.
