Chapter 133: The Inquisitor
In a small stone house, the house is surrounded by four walls. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
It seemed that the fireplace had not burned firewood for a long time, and there was not even a speck of ash in it, and in the cold room, only a bean oil lamp emitted a dim glow, bringing a touch of warmth to the people at the table.
For this cold night, the inquisitor at the table did not care.
She has fought against flying sparks and monsters in the depths of the Earth's mantle, and she has slain raging undead on cold winter nights. This little chill tonight is as insignificant as a snowflake in a glacier.
There was a rhythmic knock at the door, and the Inquisitor was about to forget how long it had been since he had heard such a knock with the power of the Light, ten years? Or twenty years?
The faint power of holy light, with a special rhythm of knocking on the door, is like a busy gong and drum in the spring, and like a war horn under the scorching sun. Either way, it's urging people who are sleeping deep to wake up quickly.
The Inquisitor placed a piece of fruit on the table that he had left for supper, watched it roll down to the side of the oil lamp, and then got up and opened the wooden door of the room, intending to go to the drawing-room to greet the guests.
The inquisitor discovered the abandoned house more than three months ago. It is said to be abandoned, but in fact, it is very well equipped, and as long as someone comes to clean it, you can easily get a shelter where you can live for a long time.
This small house with one living room and three rooms is really indispensable in the northern continent, which is full of wind and rain all year round.
The people of the town didn't seem to care much about the ruined house, so the Inquisitor simply moved in and became its owner.
Now, after the Inquisitor moved in, the house has finally welcomed its first guest.
Who could he be?
A personable priest? Or a reticent fellow Inquisition?
The Inquisitor opened the door to the living room while guessing the guests.
Standing outside the door was a young girl of twenty-eight years old.
She had long snow-white hair, which was different from the silver white with a bit of gray-white metallic texture, and the girl's silky snow-white hair was very bright, as if with a faint soft holy light.
A pair of bright golden eyes, delicate facial features, and a smile on his face that makes people feel like a spring breeze, the whole person is as beautiful as the darling of the gods.
In order to keep warm and physical strength in the cold northern continent, the girl wore a thick windbreaker, and the inquisitor could see the white priest's costume under the windbreaker and the jade hand holding the Bible, and that surprised expression!
"You seem surprised to see me?" The inquisitor said to the priest girl who had come to her.
Hearing this, the girl put away the surprise on her face, quickly regained her original calm expression, and then replied in a soft voice:
"I'm so sorry, I thought ......"
"What? Thought I would be an old man who ran to the Northern Continent to retire in the twilight, or a gloomy and cold-blooded killer? ”
The inquisitor smiled slightly, teased the girl a few times, and then turned sideways to let the girl in.
Another oil lamp was lit in the drawing-room, and the inquisitor invited the maiden to sit down at the table, and then said to the maiden with a smile:
"Is there something big going on over there in the Holy See? Would you actually let a saint-in-waiting come over? ”
"You recognized me at a glance?"
"Don't forget, I was the first judge in the Inquisition."
The inquisitor picked up the kettle and poured it out to the maiden, saying, "You have the blessings of the gods on you, you are a saint of the gods, and the power of the holy light is also favored by you, hovering around you and refusing to leave, which is why your hair is so bright. Besides, I've never seen you before, so you can't be an old church member...... With your qualifications, if it weren't for the alternate saintess, that guy from Thales would be blind! ”
"You're really quick talker." The priest girl didn't seem surprised at all that the Inquisitor was so unkind to the Pope.
The inquisitor placed the water cup in front of the girl, and the water that had just been solid, iced in the kettle, was already slightly steaming in the cup.
The girl thanked her, then took a sip of warm water from her glass.
The inquisitor poured himself a glass of water and asked, "Is the Inquisition still in charge of the Utsom guy?" ”
"Yes, it was Director Usom of the Inquisition who asked me to come to you......"
The Inquisitor nodded, only the director of the Inquisition knew how to find himself with the slightest connection he had left, and if it wasn't for Utsom sending her, he wouldn't have been able to find himself at all.
"So what is the task that makes you think of me this time?"
The Inquisitors knew what they were saying in the church, and if it wasn't particularly important, they wouldn't think about themselves at all.
The girl nodded respectfully to the Inquisitor and said, "My name is Emilia Leralos, and I am one of the three Templar Lady Candidates, a follower of the sun god Macaulay!" This time, it is the will of the Pope's crown, I hope you can go to the Southern Continent and investigate a mysterious academy! ”
"Oh? Occult Academy? ”
Emilia nodded and said to the Inquisitor, "This is a very important matter, so His Majesty the Pope hopes that you will go with me to investigate......"
Emilia said a lot, and the Inquisitor kept nodding.
To put it bluntly, this mission is to go to the Southern Continent with Emilia to investigate an academy that suddenly appeared.
This academy with a holy rank powerhouse seems to be particularly valued by the Pope, and a large number of forces were dispatched at one time, and he even asked himself to go out of the mountain. In order to find out the location of the academy.
But what about the investigation on your side? Do you want to refuse this mission?
The Inquisitor scratched his head in annoyance.
"That's right! Based on the information, we have learned that the emblem of St. Phalos College seems to look like this. ”
Emilia took a scroll from the spatial ring and placed it on the table to unfold. The Inquisitor raised his eyebrows as he looked at the emblem of St. Phalos College in the scroll......
……
After settling Emilia, the Inquisitor returned to his room.
Under the dim light, the intertwined World Tree on the scroll seemed to be dyed with a hint of yellow, which looked a little old and a little vicissitudes.
I reached out and grabbed the bright red apple on the table and took a bite, the sweet juice flowed in my mouth, and the crisp texture made a slight noise when I chewed it.
The first inquisitor of the Templar Inquisition named Catherine swallowed the chewed fruit in his mouth and smiled:
"Originally, I just wanted to find a mage with good strength, but it seems to be ...... Caught a big fish? (To be continued.) )
