More than 20 kilometers away from Jeff and the others-

"I can be regarded as coming out of the desert, I have never walked such a long way before, but I didn't expect this desert to be really big. Hall shook the sand from his hair and finally stepped on the grass.

"We're already in the southwest, and we're close to our destination. Qiao Min pursed her dry lips and said.

"Let's find a place to rest first, I want to eat meat and drink clean water, I'm fed up with the bitter taste of the water balloon released by Autumn Whisper. ”

Autumn glanced at Hall softly, but didn't say anything, after all, she couldn't stand the taste herself, it was really unpleasant.

"Okay, Iron Wolf, you are fast, go ahead and explore the way, and when you see a town, send a message to us. ”

The iron wolf nodded, the muscles in his body gradually tensed, and the heat wave spread around him, and the people who had just come out of the desert suddenly turned away from him in disgust.

But it was only for a moment, leaving only the dead grass that was swept up in the air, and the iron wolf had already jumped out, and a rapidly shrinking figure could be seen jumping to the ground, and finally turned into a small black dot and completely disappeared in the eyes of everyone.

"The speed has increased again..."Qiao Min chuckled.

Twelve white jade pillars stand in front of the magnificent church hall, which is made of unknown stone, and the whole body exudes a bright white holy light, which does not look very soft, but more solemn, and staying in such a place for a long time will make people feel uneasy and restless.

At this time, outside the main hall, a large civilian pushed and shoved to break through the soldiers' defenses, but they were unsuccessful. The scene was very chaotic, there were gardeners and servants in patch suits, beggars gnawing on steamed buns, women and men with children, and local nobles and small landowners, but they all put aside their status discrimination at the moment, a dirty beggar rubbed against a young baron, and the baron did not react, still shouting feverishly, crowding into the crowd.

On the stand on the second floor of the main hall, an old man in a white robe held a heavy book in his arms, with a cross hanging on his chest, his right hand in front of his heart, praying sincerely with his eyes closed.

No one noticed that on the roof of the main hall, above the sacrosanct church, there was a black figure. He crouched on the top, motionless, silently staring at the fanatical believers and imperial soldiers below, his face covered with a mask, and his pale blue eyes revealed blandness and coldness.

In the crowd below, a man in a red robe lowered his hood a few points, lowered his head and slowly pushed forward, and elsewhere, people in the same costume as him quietly blended into the crowd one after another, and scattered in various positions. The soldiers in front of the human defense line only saw dense crowds of people and colorful clothing, and they didn't notice the abnormality at all.

"Bishop Kuijie is here! Bishop Kuijie!" Suddenly, the crowd standing at the front broke out in exclamation, followed by the echo of all sides, and the momentum was huge.

"That's the biggest obstacle to the goal... Is the white-robed bishop of the Holy Emperor's State Religion?" On the top of the beam, the black-robed man wiped the dagger in his hand, and then wrapped the blade of the dagger with a thin black cloth, so as to prevent the sun from reflecting on the dagger.

He didn't know much about this holy state religion, but he knew that it was the only state religion in the entire empire, and all previous kings had to be crowned by the pope before they could be recognized. The state religion of the Holy Yao believes in a god called the god of the Nine Yao, and externally, they are also known as the god of light, and it is said that the sun is his incarnation. And the hierarchy of this religion from the highest to the lowest is: the pope, the cardinal archbishop, the white bishop, the priest (godfather), the monk (nun), and the faithful.

"The prey has appeared!" Under the mound in the distance, more than a dozen hidden figures appeared in their true bodies, but they did not mean to wait for the opportunity to move.

"The Tiger Team and the Angry Bear must have been mixed in the crowd, and the first to do it for a while must be the group of reckless men, no matter whether they succeed or fail, the people of the other teams will make a move, why do you want to be fishermen, let the sandpiper and clam fight for a while. "At the head of the pack was a slightly thin man with two mustaches—none other than the captain of the Zanglu team.

"Captain Wise!"

......

"Captain, are you going to make a move? A strong man in a red robe asked in a low voice.

Beside him, the leader of the Tiger Team was silent for a while, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised: "I'm afraid there is a group of people hiding in the shadows, just waiting for them to make a move, for so many years, outsiders think that our Tiger Team is a group of reckless men like the Angry Bears, so let them get to know them again." ”

"That's... We're going to do this?"

He leaned into his ear and whispered a few words, and the Tiger team member's eyes lit up, and he looked at him with admiration and said, "The captain is wise!"

"Greetings to Bishop Kuijie, the presence of the Bishop on a mission is a blessing to the land! The godfather had already run down from the stands and waited respectfully at the church gate.

Don't look at him as a godfather, there is only one orthodox sect in the entire Forbidden Empire, the Holy Yao State Religion, and it is the state religion, although it has begun to decline in recent years, but it still has far-reaching influence, he Fern is just a small godfather of the sect, and this Kuijie is a white-robed bishop from the national capital!

"Pastor Fern, I also know that you have been guarding this southern wilderness for eight years, and this time I am here not only to promote religious culture, but also to preside over the high priesthood ceremony for you. Kui Jie said with a kind smile.

Fern was stunned for a few seconds, and couldn't hide the excitement in his heart: "Thank you to the bishop, thank the Pope, thank you to the god of Jiuyao!"

"All your efforts, the gods of Jiuyao can see it, and you will definitely get the blessings of the gods!"

After Fern had shown his loyalty, the two entered the church together, and Bishop Kuijie then appeared in the stands:

"Oh, children of the God of Light, today we can stand on the same land, you and I can meet, it is all destiny of God......" Kui Jie began a long speech, and the thousands of people in the audience also fell silent, just listened quietly, some even took out a small notebook and began to take notes...
