Chapter 295: Church of Despair

Selena didn't end up returning with so many Chosen ones, but only picked a few lucky ones and accepted them as new members of the Oak Hand.

None of them.

If this really takes so many people back, the target is so big, and before he enters the city, it is estimated that he will be arrested by humans!

Selena, who is familiar with the laws of human activities, knows that after the players make a big fuss about Maple Leaf City once, humans will definitely be vigilant.

Although Maple Leaf City is the center of the border counties, even in winter, there is a lot of traffic coming and going.

But at this juncture, if a team of hundreds of people enters the city, it will definitely be strictly checked.

However, the players did not force it.

[Oak Hand] task, successfully join the organization, reward 1000 contribution points.

For players with a high level of black iron, although this reward also has a certain appeal, it is not so big.

Moreover, joining the organization is only the beginning, and the subsequent awakening of faith, as well as rewards such as saving other captured elven slaves, are all counted alone.

That said, it's going to be a long-term task.

So, the players are not in a hurry.

As for the ways to join the organization......

There's always be!

And...... Isn't there another mission?

【Secret of the God of Despair】......

As soon as you hear it, you feel like there's definitely big news!

……

Maple Leaf City.

In a tavern in the city's downtown area.

A guard sat at the bar, with his companions, drinking ale mixed with water and chatting about the gossip of the city.

"Did you hear that? A few days ago, those black markets in the business district seemed to have been severely pitted! Reputedly...... And the silver powerhouse is dead! ”

"Shhh...... Are you sure? ”

"You can't be wrong! Heard...... Some chambers of commerce have declared bankruptcy and don't know what has happened. ”

"I'll go! Who did this to you? So powerful? ”

"I heard...... It seems to be a nobleman from the south. ”

"The nobles of the south? Well done! I've long seen that these black markets are not pleasing to the eye, and even our city guards don't pay attention to them, and there are no rules at all...... Hmph, it's long overdue to be cleaned up! When Lao Tzu is developed in the future, I must give them some color to see, and ask for a half-elf slave from them every day to warm the bed! ”

"Shh......h Be quiet, don't you know that there are lords' shares behind these black markets, or else...... Why are they so arrogant? ”

Hearing his companion's words, the guards hurriedly signaled him to be careful.

"Your Lord!"

His companion's face changed, and he quickly covered his mouth, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he looked left and right and found that he hadn't noticed him.

After the guard finished speaking, he sipped the tasteless drink, but a pair of blue eyes scanned the entire tavern.

"Hey ......"

He touched the old man.

"What's wrong?"

The guard's companion burped and asked suspiciously.

"Don't you think...... How many people have come to the tavern lately? ”

The guard's gaze scanned some unfamiliar faces in the tavern and asked in a low voice.

"...... people from other places? Hiccup......"

The companion was stunned, and said indifferently:

"Didn't you say that the lord was going to hold an auction? There are still a lot of elven slaves to be auctioned...... Tsk, I've taken a look, hiccup...... What does that look like...... Belch...... So, it's normal for outsiders to come! ”

"Yes......"

The guard frowned and touched his head, and continued to drink the ale mixed with water.

And at this time, suddenly, his afterglow swept to the few people gathered in the corner of the tavern.

The hooded men, gathered in the corner, were talking to some of the fanatical residents......

And seeing these people, the guard shook his head:

"These guys...... Not again. ”

"The Lord of Eternity is above, and I don't know what the Lord thinks, why would the Church of Despair be allowed to preach in the territory, not afraid of attracting the wrath of the Eternal Church."

"If I'm not mistaken, there is no name of God of Despair on the church's list of gods, let alone missionary rights......"

He muttered as he drank.

And at his words, his companion took a wild sip of wine and said carelessly:

"Hiccup, bro, what do you care so much about, anyway...... The lord didn't say anything, what did we guards care. ”

"And ......"

His companion paused, and said:

"The Church of Despair is not all false, they say that the great tribulation is coming...... In my opinion, these few months have been a wave of demonic beasts, and there are visions everywhere, maybe...... Belch...... Troubled times are really coming! ”

"What Church of Despair? What vision? What catastrophe? ”

While the two of them were chatting and farting, suddenly, a curious voice suddenly sounded behind them.

The two were startled, turned around, and saw a young man dressed as a mercenary.

The young man had red hair, a very unfamiliar face, and his equipment was in tatters, looking like he had picked it up from a garbage heap, and he looked like a wandering mercenary.

I saw that this young man stared at the two of them with wide eyes, and the hot and curious gaze made the two of them tremble subconsciously.

Where did this wandering mercenary come from? It can't be a sick one, right?

"Two brothers, two brothers, what's that...... I'm just curious! I'm just curious! You guys...... Tell me about it. ”

I saw this young man laughing, took out a water bag from his arms, twisted the lid and stuffed it in front of the two of them.

A rich aroma of wine came to the face.

It smells so good!

The eyes of the two guards straightened at once.

They subconsciously sniffled, looked straight at the water bag in the young man's hand, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

This...... What wine?

For a moment, the two of them felt that the ale in their glasses was no longer attractive.

"Hey, hey, hey...... A little specialty of the hometown, two to taste, two to taste! That one...... I'm just curious, tell me about this god of despair, and what kind of catastrophe there is. ”

The young man laughed.

The two guards swallowed and took the wine bag.

He drank all the ale wine, and then poured out a little of the wine that the other person handed him.

Take a sip ......

Mellow and hot!

"What kind of wine is this?!"

Looking at the transparent liquid in the cup, the two of them perked up.

"Huh...... The specialty of the hometown, the name is ...... Well...... It's called Ann...... No, let's call it Erguotou! ”

"Two pot heads? Strange name......"

The two guards frowned.

However, their spirits were lifted:

"Good wine! Although the taste is different, it may even be a little strange, but ...... It's exciting! I like it! ”

"So...... What, tell the little brother about the God of Despair......"

The young man smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

The two guards looked softened, and gradually said what they knew:

"It was a church organization that suddenly appeared in the territory a few years ago, and it is said that it has dealings with some of the big nobles of the Maple Leaf Territory, and they are very mysterious, but ...... But he has a superb healing technique, so he has developed very quickly in the Maple Leaf Collar......"

"However, there are also rumors that they are the forces of the evil gods, but they are ...... But the lord has not come forward, and the Eternal Church has not forbidden......"

The two guards told each other what they knew.
