After the mercenary union went through the formalities, Uncle Knight led them to the Landing Gate to the Hanzhu Parish in Hanzhu City.

In the diocese of Hanzhu, the Holy See divides its sphere of influence into hundreds of dioceses, each of which has a cathedral - which is equivalent to the Holy See's branches in the world.

Although the believers of the Holy See are mainly concentrated in the Cloud Empire, there are also many people in the Xingzhu Empire and the Federation to the west who are believers of the Holy See, which also promotes the establishment of dioceses in the Holy See.

The Diocese of Hanzhu is one of the few dioceses in the Xingzhu Empire.

In the splendid church, there are not only tall and majestic knights, gentle and amiable priests, but also many ordinary people who come to worship, they believe in the gods, and they offer their most pious blessings to the gods for peace and smoothness in life...

Along with Lu Guan, there were two other Black Iron Mercenary Regiments and a Bronze Mercenary Regiment, about thirty people in total.

The Holy See still sent the knight uncle who summoned them to lead their mercenaries.

"About seventy miles outside of Hanzhu City, you will enter the scope of the Eternal Forest, where the density and level of demonic beasts will not pose a fatal threat to you, and you will collect white orchid grass there, and the people of our Holy See will go a little deeper. "Uncle Knight seems to be very experienced in entertaining mercenaries, and it is estimated that he was responsible for recruiting mercenaries in the past.

"Do you want to leave now?" asked Lu Guan.

"If you have nothing else to do, go now. Uncle Knight said.

The mercenaries present looked at each other, but no one really had anything to do, Uncle Knight nodded with satisfaction, and then led the way directly.

"That's?" Su Xiao whispered to Lu Guan as she pointed to a group of people who were about to enter the church, who were covered in black robes and lowered their heads one by one, as if they didn't want others to see their faces.

Lu Guan's eyes froze slightly, "... White Holy Spirit Flower... They are the [Shadow Blade] mechanism of the Xingzhu Imperial Family, this agency specializes in the elite route, and all of them are extremely powerful professionals, their identities are not public, but they are the most trusted troops by the Imperial Family. Lu Guan explained in a low voice, but one of those black-robed people still seemed to hear it, and that person raised his head slightly, and his pupils with a golden halo were a little terrifying.

However, the man only glanced at Su Xiaoxiao and Lu Guan, then lowered his head and followed his companion into the church.

“... This time arises... It seems that the Empire is extremely unhappy with the deviant behavior of the Dark Palace attacking the public academy... It is estimated that a large-scale purge of the entire Hanzhu City and the surrounding area will be launched in the near future..."Lu Guan's eyes flashed with a halo. In a short period of time, he has thought about a lot of things.

"Oh..."Su Xiaoxiao nodded as if she didn't understand, she didn't understand the current situation or anything like that, so she naturally didn't know what Lu Guan meant.

"Forget it, how to cater to these people from above is my brother's trouble. Lu Guan thought for a while and showed a slightly dark smile, he could imagine how Lu Hai would face this matter with a headache.

Because the big forces of Hanzhu City will more or less extend their influence to the [Underground Assembly], which is also a common phenomenon in the Star Bamboo Empire.

Those big forces also have some shady things to deal with, and some shady things to do, so their needs are also one of the fundamental reasons why underground gatherings can exist in various cities.

Everyone is unclean, so the higher authorities sent people to investigate, and these big forces have to try their best to get themselves out of this troubled water. Otherwise, if you are accused of something, the raid is quite light.

However, this matter is not as dangerous as imagined, and the people sent by the empire to investigate are also human beings, and they also have their own desires and needs, as long as they pay a little price in this regard, it will not be a big deal.

Therefore, this is the root of the bad nature of the human heart, and sin breeds in the shadow of the human heart.

Out of Hanzhu City, after walking ten miles, you entered the range of the forest, but this is not an eternal forest, this is just a small forest, the people of Hanzhu City call it [Chengnan Forest]... Well, the person who came up with the name in the first place must have had no talent for naming names.

Because of the proximity of the South Forest to Cold Bamboo City, Cold Bamboo City organizes people to come here every year to clear the Warcraft, so as to avoid the South Forest of the City from becoming a gathering place for Warcraft, because once the South Forest of the City becomes a gathering place for Warcraft, Hanzhu City, which is close to here, will be safely exposed to the attack range of the beast tide.

So there are only a few wild beasts in this forest south of the city.

However, the fresh air in the forest, the vigorous vitality of the forest, the brook and the shade of the trees, and some lively birds were quite popular with the girls in the group.

Su Xiaoxiao was holding a white bird, and there was a little squirrel standing on his little head.

"Hee-hee...", the girl's carefree voice brought a different kind of vitality to the team.

Angela bit a yellow wild fruit and smiled a little silly, "It's so cute..."

"That little squirrel is so cute. Tian Mo on the side was unexpectedly not resistant to small animals, but unfortunately those small animals seemed to be afraid of his tall physique, and when he approached, he would only scare those small animals.

“... Isn't it cute to be small?" Angela's eyes gleamed with excitement.

Tian Mo was silent for a while, he always felt that Angela seemed to have different thoughts about Su Xiaoxiao, he and Gianna knew each other earlier, he knew that Gianna was from the Cloud Empire... He'd also heard that gay was prevalent in the Cloud Empire...

"I always feel like you're thinking about something rude..."Angela looked at Tian Mo with an unkind face, Tian Mo scratched her head without changing her face, "Is there one?"

"Hmph, forget it if you don't. Angela snorted indifferently, and then looked at Su Xiaoxiao, who was like a fairy in the forest, and smirked...

Le Lin's eyes also stayed on Su Xiaoxiao's body, he was very curious about the origin of this little girl who overstepped the level and defeated him, he didn't remember that there was a family surnamed Su in Hanzhu City.

"No, civilian, you have thoughts about her?" Chu Yue came with a mocking voice.

"So what?" Le Lin looked at his underbeaten face, and his heart was inexplicably angry, and he couldn't help choking back.

"Yo yo, civilians should put away your unrealistic thoughts, that is the woman that our Young Master Lu has a crush on, and you will never be able to touch it in your life. Chu Yue laughed.

"Don't... Don't talk nonsense!" Lu Guan, who is usually calm, rarely showed an embarrassed expression.

"Isn't it?" Chu Yue raised his eyebrows slightly.

"It's you a ghost!" Lu Guan said angrily, and immediately stopped paying attention to Chu Yue, his gaze looked south, and a trace of silhouette could be seen in the shadow at the end of the sky.

It is the Tree of Origin, the outline of the legendary Giant Tree of Heaven!
