Chapter 43: The Uninvited Guest

Leo and his party had just walked out of the gate of the church when they saw an uninvited guest coming to them. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Your Excellency, Bishop!" Viscount Juan, who was standing under the steps of the church's main door, greeted him loudly as he walked, lest Leo did not hear. Dozens of steps were not a problem at all for this city lord who could be called a giant, and Deng Dengden came to Leo in a few steps, and held Leo's hand cordially, with a smile on his face, and his tone was extremely intimate. If he hadn't known his origins, Leo would have wondered if he and he would have been separated for many years.

"Ahem," Leo coughed lightly, and withdrew his hand from the bowl-sized palm of the viscount in front of him without a trace, I don't know if it was Viscount Juan's excessive excitement or deliberate force, Leo only felt that the palm of his right hand that he had just held was a little faintly painful. This made Leo can't help but put on a smiling expression: "On behalf of the Varna Cathedral, I would like to warmly welcome the Viscount to my unit, what are the instructions of the Viscount?" ”

"Instructions?" Viscount Juan was a full head taller than Leo, which gave him the impression that his boss was admonishing his subordinates when he spoke to Leo. The Viscount patted Leona's shoulder, which was not very broad, and said with a smile:

"The Bishop laughed, thinking that I, Juan, was just a mere viscount, how dare I make irresponsible remarks about the work of the Bishop? It's just that I heard that the bishop seems to be feeling a little unwell recently, so I came to visit, but I didn't expect to meet here by such a coincidence, it seems that I have a lot of fate with the bishop, haha! ”

Leo couldn't help but get goosebumps when he heard this, and it took a lot of effort to resist the urge to roll his eyes. Three days ago, only half an hour after Leo entered the church, the Viscount Juan had already sent someone to deliver an invitation.

If that time was a coincidence, Leo woke up today and went straight from his room to the dining room, where he ate for half an hour, during which no one except the church could hear the news of Leo's awakening. But the strange thing is that the viscount will suddenly appear in front of Leo just as he is about to leave after eating, which makes Leo clearly and annoyed to confirm the fact that someone must be quietly tipping off the viscount in Varna Cathedral.

What's even more strange is that the viscount doesn't seem to want to hide this at all, judging from his current series of actions, he almost told Leo clearly: "You have my people by your side, you give me care in every move." Such a sentence.

As soon as he thought of this, Leo's heart suddenly became even more unhappy, since I have nothing to do with you, then I can stay away from you, right? So Leo immediately spoke: "Lord Viscount, that's right, I just received an urgent message, and now I am about to set off to hunt down a few heretics, if you don't have anything important, then I will take my leave." ”

"Oh?" Viscount Juan's two sword-like eyebrows suddenly raised, and he said with a smile: "Can I ask the destination of your Excellency's trip?" ”

Leo hesitated, but still told the truth: "Ressler Village." "The reason why I tell the truth is because Leo knows that the viscount in front of him from a wealthy family of the empire will never be able to report to the two heretics of the dark church, and the reason is also very simple - all the nobles in the empire are attached to the side of the royal family of the current Sbani Empire, and the dark church is the poison of the former Gitaka Empire, and the relationship between the two is endless, and there is no room for relaxation at all.

Besides, it is indeed the work of the Church to exterminate heresies in the diocese, although the Empire clearly stipulates that any lord must help in the eradication of heretics when requested by the head of the local church, but since Leo did not speak, this Viscount Juan has no reason to follow him, right? For some reason, every time he got along with Viscount Juan, Leo felt a very uncomfortable feeling in his heart, and he subconsciously wanted to get as far away as possible from this muscular male lord with a figure comparable to a giant.

"Ressler Village?" Viscount Juan was stunned for a moment, and then a bright smile suddenly bloomed on his face, which made Leo feel bad in his heart. And our viscount did not disappoint Leo, and immediately said to Leo with a smile:

"The Bishop may not know what happened a week ago in the village of Ressler, where almost all the men, women and children in the village were slaughtered by murderers from nowhere. I'm going to investigate the matter today after visiting the Bishop, and since the Bishop is also going to this village, let's go together! By the way, I'll go gather my subordinates now, and we'll see you at Simon later!" ”

After Viscount Juan spoke, he didn't wait for Leo to answer, and ran down the stairs again, and quickly disappeared from Leo's sight.

"Thisβ€”" Leo looked at Viscount Juan in the distance, and for a moment did not know what to say.

"Don't you want to go with this viscount? Actually, you just need to report to another village, so that he has no reason to go with us. Morata on the side observed what Leo was thinking, and immediately spoke.

"How did I know that such a big tragedy had just happened in this Rensler village!" Leo glared at Morata angrily, obviously looking for a target to vent his anger: "It seems that you also know about this, why didn't you tell me earlier!" ”

"Uh," Morata said with a wry smile, "I wanted to tell you about it when I was in the restaurant just now, but you obviously weren't in the mood to listen at the time, so I don't think I could get there for a moment anyway, and it's the same on the road." ”

"It's too late to say anything." Leo's expression was very unhappy, and he didn't let the young deacon go because of Morata's defense: "What are you still doing, go and prepare our mount!" Since Leo's carriage had been destroyed in the previous battle in the alley, he was only able to ride his horse on the road today. Morata answered and hurried to the stables, the wise deacon apparently knew the truth that "don't be in front of the leader when he's in a bad mood."

So on the steps in front of the church door, only Leo and Darwin, the temple warrior who had been silent, were left. Leo was about to step down the stairs when suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly remembered something, so he said to Darwin, "Ada, do you remember what that Lord Thunderpeak said to us in the pit that day?" ”

"Which one?" Darwin's answer was always so short.

"It's about the Holy Ascetic Ambrossi," Leo said thoughtfully, "I remember that Lord Thunderpeak said at the time that the Holy Ascetic Ambrosi raped and killed a young girl in a village near the Lito Mountains, and then slaughtered a village, so Lord Thunderpeak was angry and chased him to the Lito Mountains and finally killed Ambrosi, could it be that this village of Resler isβ€”"

Leo stopped talking at this point and turned his head to look at Darwin. Leo could clearly read the message from the eyes of the Templar Warrior: "I don't know if that's the case, but I think you're right. ”

Leo let out a long sigh and suddenly realized that fate really was a wonderful thing. It was precisely because of the death of the holy ascetic Ambrossi in the Lito Mountains that changed the fate of the meeting, and the reason for Ambrosi's death was because of the tragedy that happened in the village of Ressler, and now he happened to go to the village of Ressler where the tragedy happened to hunt down two heretics hiding there, is there really a hand of fate in the underworld, which is wonderfully entangled with these things?

Leo suddenly had a premonition that he was likely to experience something that would affect his future in the village of Resler, but what kind of thing would it be?

Just check it out.

As soon as he thought of this, Leo suddenly had a strong expectation in his heart, turned his head and smiled at Darwin behind him, "Let's go." ”
