Chapter 336: The Church's Invitation

With the arrival of the Simlo Territory Drop Book, the old goblin Braun was very happy.

Because wars often mean large sums of money on military expenses and pensions, although in the end if they win the war, they can rely on plunder, but now they can win a war without sending troops, and the population is about to usher in a wave of explosive growth, isn't it worth celebrating?

For this reason, the old goblin specially held a feast in the newly built lord's mansion and invited the management of the Free City.

Thor went to the banquet with five shiitake mushrooms and two bean sprouts, but he was disgusted by the old goblin and brought too many people.

Looking at his pick-and-search look, he directly made Thor laugh angrily.

Petty even hid behind Thor, feeling completely faceless, especially in front of the sisters.

The old goblin, the newly built Lord's Mansion, is obviously also the work of Scott's original team, and the spire row is also very atmospheric.

Compared to the Lord's Mansion of Sol, the layout is slightly similar, but there are also many differences in details. The area is slightly smaller than Sol's, maybe the old goblin didn't put all the money from Thor into the construction, who knows, he is happy.

There must not be so many people sitting at the dining table of the old goblin's house, so Thor and his own shiitake mushrooms did not squeeze it, and directly moved the round dining table of the old goblin to the courtyard. There must be any dishes on the main table here, anyway, when the time comes, it will be over if you don't have enough to eat and curse.

There were a lot of people at the banquet, bringing together the old and new people of the Free City, and the entire restaurant of the old goblin's house was packed.

Staunt and Diller are definitely going to be sitting at the main table, they have not yet stepped down from their positions, and they have just woken up from their slumber of promotion. The fourth order is considered to be the highest combat power in the entire Freedom City at present, and it must have been touted a lot.

Some time after the feast had begun, Staunt and Diller had brought their wives to Thor's table to drink.

Diller didn't see Rose beside him, and it is said that Diller had just woken up, and before he could say anything about his various moods, Rose handed over all the work to Diller, who couldn't wait to be promoted.

Diler expressed his sadness about this, but he could only fully support and continue to bear his name as a 'good man'.

During the banquet, many current managers brought their families to toast.

Although Thor is fading out of the core of power in Free City, they still show enough respect and politeness to Thor , perhaps because of Thor strength, or maybe because of Thor once contributed to Free City.

The main purpose of the banquet was to discuss the reception and subsequent resettlement of Simllo's large population.

In fact, there is nothing to discuss, since others have already surrendered on their own initiative, then let them pack up the materials and people in their own territory and move all to the Free City, and the Free City will at most send troops to pick them up halfway.

After listening to a few words, Saul felt uninterested, turned his head and asked if his mushrooms were full, and went home when he was full.

Before leaving, Saul sent Petty to say goodbye to his father, lest the old goblin catch him again and ask for advice.

Let the mushrooms walk slowly, and Thor himself stands here at the intersection waiting for Petty.

"Aren't you going home?" asked Petty, who had caught up.

"You're done saying goodbye, now are you going home?" Petty looked up confusedly.

"No, that's my house, the new lord's mansion is your home, didn't you cry and scream to go back?"

"You nasty...... Smack~" Petty suddenly stretched out the ball of her little foot in shame, and Thor dodged, but she didn't step on anything.

After being dragged into the darkness by Thor and nibbling a few bites, Petty happily put her arm around Thor and set out on the way home.

As soon as he got home, he was greeted by the head of the guards of the lord's palace.

"Your Excellency, there is your letter. The Commander handed over a letter with a gilded surface and a seal sealed with dark oil wax.

"Who sent it?" Seeing that there was not a word on the envelope, Thor asked.

"It was sent by one of Lord Diller's men, just as you left the Lord's Mansion. The Commander replied truthfully.

Picking up the letter in his hand, Thor waved his hand to let the Captain of the Guards leave.

Diller's side? That might have something to do with intelligence. Since Diller didn't mention it when he went to the banquet just now, it must have been sent to the Free City from somewhere else, and as soon as it arrived, it was directly transferred to himself.

Thor thought about it in silence, feeling very curious, who on this continent would write a letter to himself?

He took out the unsealing knife from the ring and opened the envelope, and the rows of graceful handwriting jumped into view, coupled with the faint fragrance of the delicate letterhead, Thor almost thought it was a love letter from someone who admired it.

This letter is obviously from the Holy See of Light, and it is unknown whether it was written by Eletha's Holy Light Shiitake herself, but at least the tone is. It was more accurate than a letter inviting Saul to visit Bruno's territory. fantasy

Bruno Thor took out a map of the North and found the location of Bruno's territory.

It was a territory behind Kenaldier, about half a month's journey from Kennadze. It's not too far, and if you travel from Liberty City through the former Kennadze Territory, you'll be there in almost a month's journey.

Although Bruno is slightly closer to the middle of the continent, he is still a small frontier territory. This territory also has a nail planted by Diller, so this letter should be someone from the Holy See of Light to find Diller, and then go directly to the Intelligence Headquarters of Free City through the letter crow.

The tone of the letter was more formal, with occasional teasing and sarcasm, which Thor attributed to the mischievous nature of the mushroom monster. The main content is that the lord of Bruno will hold a ball, and that the Holy Maiden Eletha invites Thor to be a guest in the name of the Holy See of Light.

On the round trip, Aretha specifically emphasized in the letter that she would respect Thor's habit all along, and open the door to the secret realm of the reincarnation dungeon in Bruno's territory on the same day, and Thor would only need one day to complete the round trip.

It seems to be a little sincere, but the Holy See of Light invites itself, what else can he do except build a church and deceive the common people. I'm not a lord anymore, and Eletha, the Holy Light Shiitake Mushroom, doesn't go to Braun, the old goblin, but comes to find him, which is easy to cause misunderstandings.

Thor was about to ignore it, but the end of the letter intrigued Thor as a result.

"Be sure to bring Miss Beth Battier with you. At the end of the letter came the words.

This sentence made Thor feel a little funny, the Holy See of Light must have investigated him a long time ago, so it was not strange for them to know about Beth's existence, but it was a little strange to suddenly invite Beth to accompany him as a guest.

Even inviting Petty to Thor is understandable, after all, her father is the current new lord of Free City, but it is Beth.

After thinking for a moment, Thor came up with a possibility.

The act of inviting Beth should be a new bargaining chip for the Holy See of Light. With the Holy Light Healing Technique, they may have a way to solve the scar on Beth's face, so they want to make this a condition of the deal.

Although the scars on Beth's face have never been shown in public, wearing a silver mask all day long is a kind of stealing bells.

It is undeniable that although the Holy See of Light is pervasive, the invitation sent this time is very tempting to Thor. On the one hand, it was because Saul had promised Beth that she would help her heal her injuries, and on the other hand, Thor was also distressed to see Beth hide it all day long.

So the next day at the dinner table, Saul made this invitation in front of everyone at the table, and after giving his general analysis, Saul turned his head and asked Beth's opinion.

"But...... Is it really good to have the Holy See of Light settle in the territory and establish a church? I remember that you don't approve of a certain faith being too big. Beth bowed her head slightly, her expression a little hesitant, but there was still hope in her eyes.

The scars were not only on her face, but also in her heart, and it was possible that they had already started in her childhood.

"Faith is such a thing, good or bad, depending on how it is used. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter to me what the people want to believe, but you have a lot to do with me, so let's go together. Thor took Beth's little hand in his hand.

Beth looked at Thor with red eyes and nodded slightly.

"I'm going too. A mischievous voice interrupted Saul and Beth's affection, it was Petty.

"You go fart, stay at home honestly, the environment is unfamiliar at that time, and there are too many people to protect me. Thor waved his hand.

Petty got up from her seat at the table and walked over to Saul.

"Take me there, okay? Please, you promised to take me out. Petty took the initiative to sit in Thor's arms, holding his neck and shaking back and forth, shaking him a little dazed.

"This ...... Who taught her?" Listening to Petty's soft and coquettish tone, Thor shivered a few times.

"It's usually hard to go out, so let's take Petty's sister with you. Beth smiled and said nice things to Petty.

Thor blinked, then nodded his mouth at Petty in his arms.

Petty hurriedly kissed him around the neck, and learned to attack Thor with her little tongue.

"It's only at times like this that you're a little obedient. Thor smiled and agreed to Petty's request, then raised his hand and ruffled her light chestnut hair.

Another sleepless night came, and for Saul, this sleeplessness was not a metaphor, but a real sleeplessness.

Whenever such a night comes, it can seem relatively long.

After staying in the room for a while, Thor got up and gently opened the door and went out into the hallway. Except for the occasional faint chirping of insects in the courtyard, the entire Lord's Mansion was silent.

The mushrooms in the house must have fallen asleep, and Thor wasn't prepared to disturb them again.

The trail was inevitably discovered by the night guards of the mansion, but Thor did not interrupt their work, nor did they take the initiative to come over to communicate, but appeared to be more energetic at their posts.

After touching the kitchen by himself, boiling water and making a cup of hot fragrant tea, Saul took the hot tea to the pond outside the bedroom. It seems that he will go to the dungeon again in the second half of the night, Sol, who is carrying a fishing rod, thought.
