Chapter 34: The Courier Boy Saves the World
The appalling scene in the King's Treasury still stimulates the nerves of the Sage after a long time.\\
On the other side, the caretaker of the King's Treasury was also deeply helpless.
"This time I made a mistake, but you have also seen it, Sage, they prostitute all day long, at least not ...... I won't run out of the Sect to threaten the Holy Light Cult. β
The Sage was still a little angry: "Are you sure they can't get out? Don't forget, there's a ghost wandering in the vault."
"Don't worry, even if he was once invincible in the world, now he is just a wisp of remnant soul. I'm the manager of the treasury."
ββ¦β¦ Since the factors here can be ruled out, let's hurry up and clean up the remnants of Dragon City. β
"Now?" The administrator was slightly surprised, "But the strength of the diocese of Dragon City is not enough." β
"So let the Faceless Go." The Sage made a decision coldly.
"The Faceless? Do you want to ......"
"As servants of the Light, we have an obligation to overcome all obstacles and threats at all costs, and Bedwell has survived so long enough to be enough. It was already a great gift to leave him and his dragon city behind in that battle of purification. β
"Yes...... By the way, it has recently been rumored that the eastern city-states have officially formed an alliance with heretics from the east. β
"Alliance? The wishful thinking of a few, with a few nails, kill a few people, and the alliance will break itself. Alliance with strangers, it will not end well. β
The conversation continues, and darkness remains under the Light.
With the unremitting efforts of Archbishop Rowan of the Diocese of Dragon City, the matter of Bedwell's raid on the Inquisition has finally faded, and the relationship between the church and Dragon City has tended to ease, as if it has returned to the silent tacit understanding of the past few years.
No one should be involved in anyone, no one should disturb anyone, according to the previous agreement, each performing its own duties and doing its own thing.
During this period, Archbishop Rowan made great contributions, it was he who controlled the scene for the first time, so that the leaderless inquisition would not intensify the conflict, and it was he who appeased Marina and stabilized the faith of the saint. It was even more that he secretly met with Bedwell overnight to stabilize Dragon City's movements.
A series of means show the old man's spicy methods. At the same time, it also makes someone who single-handedly provokes a series of contradictions have to change the plan and make new plans.
However, no one expected that a new storm, faster than anyone expected, would come to Dragon City in an instant.
"The new chief referee?"
Inside the Dragon City Cathedral, Marina was a little surprised by this rumor.
Archbishop Rowan nodded: "I just received instructions from the Holy City yesterday, because Count Donald was seriously injured and cannot serve as a councilor, and the new chief magistrate will probably be in office in two or three days." β
As he spoke, the archbishop was deeply worried.
Marina asked, "Who is the new chief referee?" β
"According to rumors...... The Faceless. β
"The Faceless?" Marina Huo Ran got up, "What is that crazy person from the Holy City thinking?" The situation here has just stabilized, and the executioner, the murderer, has been sent over? β
The archbishop gave Marina a deep look.
Obviously, the naΓ―ve saint had not yet realized that the Holy City had sent the Faceless Ones precisely to exacerbate the conflict. His previous series of measures stabilized the situation, and I am afraid that he also offended the Holy City.
"My lord, I really don't understand, my lord, that the Faceless One had just committed a heinous murder in the west a few years ago, and that the Church had not punished him. That kind of person should be expelled from Lu, right? β
"Try to get used to it." The archbishop was also helpless, "The Faceless One is radical, but when it comes to faith in the Light, he is in no way inferior to you or even above you. He is the second most powerful man in the church after the great legend, and he is very capable of doing things, and he is the sharpest knife of the church. For him, even if you don't understand, you have to bear with it. β
"But ......"
Before the words fell, a happy voice suddenly came from behind the two: "Oh, that's a good point, I didn't expect to meet a confidant in this heretic-infested place, it seems that we can still cooperate." β
"Who?"
Marina and Rowan turned around at the same time, only to see a tall and thin man, dressed in a white robe, standing upright in the middle of the room. At first glance, he is described as a solemn and templated holy clergyman, but his face seems to have been forcibly erased by some force, with no facial features, only a piece of pure white
"The Faceless?" Luo Wan was shocked, and subconsciously took two steps back, "You...... When were you? β
The Faceless Man flickered, appeared behind Luo Wan, stretched out a white-gloved hand and put it on Luo Wan's shoulder, and put on a seemingly intimate posture: "When I was in the Holy City, I heard people talk about you, saying that you are the biggest wreck among the more than 30 diocesan bishops of the Holy Light Sect, and you have lived to be a dog. Now it seems that although people are nestled, they are also interesting. β
Luo Wan's face turned red when he heard this, and his withered hands were clenched tightly, but he forcibly did not speak.
But Marina, who has always regarded Rowan as her father, couldn't help it.
"Lord Faceless, you're being rude"
"Rites?" The Faceless One said, "The will of the Light is the greatest gift, and I have come from the will of the Light. β
As he spoke, the Faceless Man turned his head, and a pale, flat face seemed to shoot a terrifying gaze.
"Oh, you are the Holy Maiden of this diocese? I've heard about you in Holy City, and people say you're a filthy bitch, and now that I'm meeting you, I'm right. β
"Filthy......" Marina couldn't believe her ears.
"Not convinced? When you gave birth to a mongrel to the heretic of Bedwell, your flesh was rotten from the inside out. What's even more ridiculous is that instead of killing that little bastard with your own hands, you raised her to this day? β
The Faceless One said, suddenly clapping his hands: "By the way, since you talked about it...... Where are the little mongrels located? I'll clean it up this time. β
"You are looking for death" Marina's anger can no longer be contained, if the other party is aimed at herself or even Luo Wan, she can force herself to shut up, but her daughter Elaine is undoubtedly an absolute rebel.
Although the Holy Maiden is not good at fighting, she is a high-level professional after all, and the furious holy light turns into raging flames, and explodes desperately, and in an instant, it is like a scorching sun, and it is about to plunge herself and the entire Dragon City into a sea of fire.
"Hmph." In response, the Faceless One only stretched out a hand, and the flames were suddenly restrained by the invisible force, and then pressed back into Marina's body, and the slightest bit of it could not leak out.
Marina's delicate body trembled, and she was shocked by the powerful force of the shock, and vomited blood on the spot.
"Ah, how dare you strike at the messenger of the Light. Sure enough, it's an out-and-out heretical bitch. The Sleepless easily suppressed Marina's outburst, "It seems that it is necessary to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, well, let me find out where that little bastard is......"
Marina trembled and shouted, "Whatever means come at me, don't hurt the child"
Luo Wan also persuaded: "Lord Faceless, Marina is just impulsive, please raise your noble hand." She is a believer in strong faith, at the beginning, she was just because she was young and careless, she was confused and seduced by the city lord of Dragon City, and accidentally made mistakes, but now she yearns for the Holy Light with all her heart, and she has nothing to do with heresy for a long time."
"But when people make mistakes, they have to pay the price." The Faceless One raised his hand with interest, and his pale face turned to Rowan as if waiting for him to continue.
Luo Wan looked at Marina, who was seriously injured, gritted his teeth and said: "Moreover, after all, Marina is a parish saint, and she has a high reputation here, if she kills at will, it will be very detrimental to the local mission."
The Faceless: "Are you threatening me?" β
"Definitely don't dare to just ...... State the facts. β
"Hmm." The Faceless One nodded after listening, "What you said makes a lot of sense. It is indeed not good to kill a well-known saint at will. Moreover, the real enemy of the Holy Light Sect is the Bredon Dragon Clan, so I don't need to waste my strength on the miscellaneous fish. β
As he spoke, the Faceless One withdrew his right hand that had suppressed Marina, and Marina only felt that her whole body was loose, and the pressure had been removed, but she couldn't use any strength, which was very uncomfortable.
In Luo Wan's heart, the boulder fell to the ground, and it seemed that this faceless man was just going to give them a dismount, and as the new chief referee, he quickly established the absolute prestige in this place, and he really deserved to be the sharpest knife in the church, and his style of action was ...... It's just too radical. Fortunately, this most difficult first level should be regarded as over.
However, just as Luo Wan was relaxing, he suddenly heard the faceless man speak.
"Death crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be escaped."
As he spoke, the five fingers of his right hand were retracted and released, only to hear a crisp sound of tearing, and Marina's robe was split in two by an invisible force, revealing the soft and plump ** body under the robe.
"You?" Marina was embarrassed and angry, but she couldn't struggle, barely reaching out to cover her intimate parts, and her posture was extremely embarrassing.
"You say you have nothing to do with Bedwell, but if I get to you here, will Bedwell not be able to react? Personally, I am skeptical. β
Luo Wan was shocked and said, "Lord Faceless, what are you asking for? β
"Can't see it? I'm going to rape this woman and lure Bedwell out of the trap for him. I heard that he dared to raid the Inquisition because of the arrest of two recruits under his command, so his own woman was humiliated, and there was no reason not to come to the rescue. Then, I waited for him to come. β
As he spoke, he shook his body in front of Marina, and his tall and thin body pressed down against Marina, enveloping Marina like a dark cloud.
"Stay away from me, you devil"
"The devil? No, I am the presiding judge of the diocese here, the embodiment of the will of the Light. The Faceless One remained in the same cold tone, and as he spoke, he reached out irresistibly and broke Marina's closed legs, and a dark shadow slowly peeked out of his white robes.
Archbishop Rowan finally couldn't hold back: "Such an atrocity is definitely not the will of the Holy Light"
The white-gold scepter pointed forward, and an irresistible force of division bloomed between the Faceless and Marina, which was the supreme divine technique used by the prophet to divide the sea in the myths and legends of the Holy Light Sect, and now Rowan used a simplified version of it, and its power was still not to be underestimated, if it was right in the human body, it could even directly tear a high-level intermediate professional.
However, the Faceless One only stretched out his left hand to hold it in the air, and Luo Wan's scepter shattered, and the whole person's chest was like being hit by a giant hammer, dented, and blood spurted wildly.
"Well, the Light didn't let me do that." The Faceless nodded, "It didn't say it was against it, though. β
As he spoke, he leaned forward, and a dark shadow was about to pierce Marina.
The woman turned away in humiliation, powerless to resist what was happening in front of her.
And yet at this very moment.
Knock knock.
There was a sudden knock on the door, disrupting everyone's rhythm.
"Hello, I was sent by the water station to deliver water, may I ask anyone?"
