Chapter 119: Crimson (22)
(Cat pounces Chinese http://www.mpzw.com.)
www.mpzw.com) "Miss, it seems that the front is impassable. The little girl dressed as a maid leaned her head out of the carriage window and asked with some excitement, "Some men in armor are blocking the way...... Have we finally met the robbers?"
The black-haired girl, whose whole person was embedded in a pile of soft cushions, glanced at the maid and said, "How can there be robbers on the avenue leading to Stratholme...... There are garrisons of two dukes in this land. β
"Your tone isn't so sure. The little maid chattered: "After all, after so many years away from my hometown, no one can figure out the recent new form...... Doesn't it seem that some strange secret religion has sprung up in the north? β
The northern frontier of the kingdom is home to pagans, and the Church of the Light has long been aware of this. At the time of the report from the local bishop, the higher echelons of the Church regarded it as a primordial worship from the Amani trolls - almost every once in a while, similar events occurred on a small scale, and when the freshness passed, people who did not benefit from the primordial gods would always return to the embrace of the Light.
The Church let its guard down until a bishop of a border diocese was murdered in a local church and the subsequent investigation team lost contact.
The Church of Light, which had never wielded much force, had to turn to the Kingdom of Lordaeron for help while sending more priests to stabilize the situation on the Dìng border - the Maiden was one of them.
"I've heard they have a little wooden chapel and you're going to love it...... Don't be embarrassed, this is something I managed to get for you...... When the trouble is resolved, your merits will be enough to rise to the rank of regional bishop. β
The Mentor put her in a small village whose name is not found on the latest map, and served as the successor to a priest who had lost contact.
"Miss, the road is blocked. The carriage stopped, and the coachman shouted.
The girl complained as she pulled out of the soft mat, and after spending a long time sorting out her modest clothes, she reluctantly got out of the car to check it.
"Stay in the car, I don't want to spend hours looking for you who are playful and lost. She stopped the little maid from following, picked up the improvised staff that had been set aside, and walked out of the car.
Many carriages and pedestrians were stopped by barriers at the front of the road, and strangely the crowd was not the usual noise and arguments, and several kind-looking knights were explaining something to the crowd.
Perhaps seeing the sign of the Church of Light on the carriage, a knight walked towards the girl.
"Hello, Guides of the Light. The knight bent slightly, and the conspicuous badge on his chest explained why there was good order here.
Silver Hands.
An organization that is well-known for its alliance and is highly respected and trusted.
"Hello, Guardian of the Light. The girl returned the salute and said, "What happened up front?"
"There is some trouble in the direction of Stratholme...... If possible, I would advise you to turn back or take a detour. The knight muttered for a moment, then replied with a knock.
"I am appointed Auxiliary Bishop of the border region by order of the Church. The girl, apparently not taking the trouble to heart, handed over a letter and said, "This is the commission of the church. β
The knight took the letter and looked at it, and from time to time looked at the girlβlong black hair, a handsome look, a warm and peaceful smile, and an unsuspecting posture...... He wore a plain white priest's robe without any ornamentation, and the staff in his hand looked very cheap.
It does look like the standard image of a priest: incorruptible, kind, righteous and approachable, except for the inconspicuous and expensive layer of cloth that is wrapped around the staff to protect the skin of the hands.
The knight estimated in his heart that this was probably a priest who was well versed in church organization and missionary affairs, but could not even use the technique of restoration.
"I will send two knights to escort you to your destination, the road ahead is not safe. The knight handed the letter back to the maiden and said, "Be sure to get out of Stratholme. β
"Why?" the girl asked, puzzled, "where my father and brother were." β
After a long silence, the knight said compassionately.
"May the Light bless you. β
β¦β¦
Clement stood by the sleeping Loria, watching the girl wrapped in heavy fur with only her long tousled hair and side face.
It looks soft and hot, and I want to touch it.
She reached for Loria's cheek, but stopped in mid-air.
The fingers rubbed against the palms, but there were only thick and hard calluses.
"You won't wake up if you touch it. Suddenly, a voice came from behind him, it was Sharia.
Startled, Clement hurriedly withdrew his arm, but saw Sharia walking up quickly, reaching out and rubbing Loria's head, and gently pinching Lori's face by the way.
"Great!" Sharia said with a thumbs up at Clement, squeezing her eyes, "I'm going to be in a good mood all day today." β
Looking at Sharia's ostentatious expression, Clement sighed faintly, "You were still cuter when you were a child...... You were also a Lori, but unfortunately I didn't find the true meaning of the Holy Light at that time. β
Beautiful memories are like yesterday's twilight, and the new dawn is far from coming.
"Someday, the eldest lady will grow up too. Clement said rather melancholy: "Originally, it was a big Lori who only stepped on the dividing line between Lori and a girl, but it will become bigger in a blink of an eye." β
Sharia also complained: "My life has long been ruined, and the merciless time will continue to rob me of the last pleasures." β
"Do you know Nozdorm?" said Loria, who was woken up, "I am immortal. β
Leaving the two who were so shocked that they didn't know whether to be ecstatic or not, the pink-haired Lori rolled over and fell asleep again.
β¦β¦
Loria herself doesn't know if she has accomplished the great achievement of the dream world.
Her eyes were as hot as they were on fire, her head was dizzy, and when she woke up again, she felt that she had a fever.
When she struggled to sit up straight, she found that her companions were inexplicably excited, and the joy and apprehension were already overflowing.
"What's ......?"
Is there anything good happening, Loria, who wanted to ask this, was frightened by her hoarse voice.
Sensing that something was wrong, Kana approached Loria, and after asking for the latter's permission, she touched the forehead of the pink Lori with her hand.
"I'm afraid it's a fever. With that, Kana cast a reinvigorate on Loria and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
Loria shook her head.
Kana, who specializes in the spiritual saint system, uses a technique that few people have mastered to dispel illness, and asks Loria how she feels again.
Loria shook her head again.
"It's not magic or curse effects, it's not a malignant disease spread by warlocks. Kana pondered the diagnosis and said, "It should be an ordinary fever." β
The Light is not a cure for all diseases, even if it is powerful enough to resurrect the physically alive and dead, and the Holy Priest, who walks on the battlefield all year round, has his own small means.
After taking the yellow powder given by Kana with water, Loria, who had been lying down and resting for a while, felt much better.
"Now you can tell me what you're happy about, right?"
