In the ensuing search process, not to mention Eliton as a follower, even the Sky Chase Team could no longer follow him.

Eventually, after Ryan reported to the church, their application was quickly approved by the church.

A priest from the Inquisition Office was the leader, Lei An and another high-ranking priest disguised as retinues, and Zhao Xu served as the clerk.

A group of four of them, through the list given by the church's top management, they found the pastors recorded on the list in turn for an interview.

Basically, these "routine interviews" take place on a regular basis every year. The high-level clergy of each church come to the Basilica of the Sacred Heart for debriefing every year in a fixed month.

Among the gods, it is the priest of Mystra who can rely on the portals of the Mage Guild to come back regularly every year to report on his work.

The church will also focus on these high-level clergy of the local church who have returned from their assignments to report on their work, and will conduct intensive interviews in these limited days.

These clergy who returned from other places were also the first to be suspected this time, and they were all targeted as priority investigations.

The Lei An team only arranged for them to check for people with low probability because the leader priest and Zhao Xu were not high enough.

After a circuitous journey, the team arrived at a quiet room according to the notes of today's itinerary of the people on the list.

On the stage was a female pastor of the third ring, with a pure appearance, who was sitting cross-legged at the front desk at this time, while chanting words and teaching.

Below, all the probationary priests, following the example of the pastor's teacher, kept the same movements, breathing intermittently to the rhythm of the other party.

When Zhao Xu saw it, he was suddenly a little embarrassed.

The female pastor in charge of the teaching is teaching the most basic way of "prayer". These actions are strictly prescribed in the church's two ceremonies, "morning prayer" and "evening prayer".

Priests also generally pray to the gods for divine magic at these two fixed stages.

Because Zhao Xu rarely uses the priest's one-ring magic recently, the one-ring magic on his body has been retained, and naturally he didn't perform a prayer ceremony to obtain the magic the next day.

Unlike other devout priests, the main purpose of the prayer ritual is to praise the gods and repent of their sins, and as for the acquisition of divine magic, it is just an additional bonus.

Therefore, Zhao Xu didn't have the need for divine arts, so he naturally left the ritual behind.

The ritual of "prayer" was originally achieved by each person as he pleased, and even knelt down and shouted the name of the gods.

It was only later that when the church was organized, the church of the gods began to clarify the needs of its own prayer rituals.

Even in the church, it was given a specific place to do it, with the corresponding incense and celestial choir.

Zhao Xu naturally didn't go through this education at the beginning, and began to silently hug the goddess's thigh with his eyes closed, so he listened to it with relish at the moment.

And the pastor of the ruling office who led the team, "Matthew", had an old-fashioned expression, and from the beginning of his first contact with them, he was unsmiling, like an ice sculpture.

In fact, Matthew, the pastor of the Four Rings, is the mainstream of the church's law enforcement agency, the "adjudication court".

He had just been urgently recalled from the outside by the church to participate in this operation, and the four members of the team were doing this for the real thing. And at this moment, only a priest like Matthew, who is completely outside of Mystra, can rule out suspicion.

The four of them had established a common spiritual connection, and Matthew did as Ryan had instructed, waiting until the female pastor had asked the trainee pastor in the audience to practice on her own before he beckoned the other to come out.

And when the innocent-looking female priest saw the other priests in black robes, she immediately understood what was going on.

Even though she knew that she had no problem with her moral integrity, she still couldn't help jumping in her heart, and then she said goodbye to the trainee pastor in the audience and walked outside.

The group of five people also directly found another vacant quiet room in the corridor to sit down and talk in detail.

"Hazel, level 5 priest?" Matthew, as the team leader, asked the other party throughout the whole process, and Ryan guided him through a psychic link at critical times.

Hazel took a deep breath, nodded slowly, and then answered the questions one by one according to Matthew's questions.

Zhao Xu used a pen to shorthand the content of the conversation between the two parties, and then this verbatim script will be signed and confirmed by both parties.

The whole process, although everyone was thinking about where the succubus priest was, still proceeded according to the normal process, just a brief interview with a low-risk person.

until more than ten minutes have passed.

Lei An asked in his heart: "Midsummer, what do you say?" ”

Zhao Xu replied silently: "There is no abnormality." ”

According to the inference of the high-level leaders of the church and the association, after more than 10 minutes of getting along, if Zhao Xu, who has been in contact with the divine power of the abyss, does not react, then ninety percent of the possibilities can be investigated.

"I'm fine." Matthew replied mentally at the same time.

As a pastor who has been practicing for more than a decade, Matthew's own skills in reading words and emotions have been fully honed. He judged purely from the point of view of the interviewee.

"No problem." Blanche, another female priest who sat in the last corner, who was the same entourage as Lai'an, said the same thing, her hair was a little old and pale, but her face could barely make out the delicacy of the past.

"Then eliminate suspicion and replace the next one." Ryan said.

Generally speaking, failure is the norm in this kind of investigation, and the list of people in Ryan's hands alone is no less than fifty.

It's also basically unlikely that a hit will hit the ground running.

After Matthew and the other party were polite, thanking the other party for accepting the interview, and then asking "Hazel" to sign the verbatim copy, the Ryan team went straight to find the next target.

In the next process, Team Ryan first screened the clergy who served as probationary priests based on the principle of proximity.

Because most of the training for pastor trainees is also concentrated in the same building, it basically prevents them from running around and wasting time on the road.

It's just that the trainee pastors who are basically able to serve as teachers have been vetted a lot, which is not realistic from the point of view of being disguised for many years.

And if it is rashly replaced today, they themselves have not been in contact, and it is difficult to judge for a while.

Therefore, most of the cases have to rely on Zhao Xu's "Abyss Divine Power" induction.

The answer is also a no.

Until he walked to a certain classroom, he was sitting in front of the stage an elderly pastor, but his old body was still very vigorous, and he was now reciting the greatness of the Goddess's teachings.

Especially in the key places, he explained it over and over again, and listened to more than ten Earth players in the audience drowsy.

"Well, do you know anyone?"

The Ryan team has adhered to the basic etiquette at this moment, waiting for the other party's explanation at the door to end.

However, he noticed that Zhao Xu's gaze was surrounding a certain student at the bottom of the classroom, and he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Well, some acquaintance." Zhao Xu said simply.

The temple itself was filled with the will of the goddess's divine power, and Zhao Xu lost the trace of the other party the moment Zheng Xinyun entered the temple.

At this moment, he was close enough to recapture the other party's positioning.

He's like a radio, and once the direction is aligned, the other party's signal can resound in the channel.

At this time, Zheng Xinyun was sitting under the stage, but unlike other sleepy students, he turned his head sideways, curiously thinking about the explanation of the old pastor on the stage.

"Your friend has quite a personality." Ryan quipped.

Zhao Xu didn't answer after hearing this.

It is also true that in Arthur's world, the vast majority of priests choose to believe in gods.

The number of faction priests is extremely scarce in their own right, as it is far more difficult to get a faction's response than it is to get a response from the gods.

Arthur's training of faction priests is generally in charge of the church of gods in a similar faction, and after these priests complete the basic level 1 training, they will find a faction organization or fend for themselves.

At the same time, many players who can't determine their faith at the beginning, but choose a priest, will also be set as a faction priest and trained according to the treatment of a faction priest.

The vast majority of these pastors will be transformed into priests of the deity in this process of cultivation, and the elderly pastors on the stage will act as such guides.

The class in front of Zhao Xu was all this kind of trainee camp priest, which was also the reason why Lei An joked.

"What are the people outside the door?" At this time, the extreme player sitting below couldn't help but mutter.

As the third month of the priest players who have received the initial training here, half of them are "pure newcomers" like Zheng Xinyun who have just entered the game, and the other half are "old fritters" who have been deleted and restarted.

Especially in the current team of players, the priest profession itself can get a huge premium.

Even the most powerful level 3 squad at the moment is not stingy to team up with level 1 and 2 priests.

Even some local tyrants directly throw money outside the game to let priest players use healing spells on them in the game.

This has also caused most studios that are hungry for money to invest in the priesthood profession, but there are only a few who succeed, and some players even quit the studio after becoming a priest.

In the face of the rising tide of the priesthood and mage professions, the gossip related to them has also become the daily routine of the forum. Therefore, many people are talking about some of the situations encountered in the church.

"I'm definitely a group of senior pastors. Didn't you see that the old priest who preached the mystery of the goddess suddenly spoke in a sonorous and powerful tone? ”

"Hey, that's a bunch of walking renminbi." One of the studio players looked enviously at the four people at the door, "How cool it would be if I could level up to them." ”

"Don't think about it, you won't be qualified to stand at the door for two years. Those who wore black robes were from the Inquisition, presumably for the coming year's regular conversations. The priests who can enter that department are all level 7 or above, and they can perform the four-ring magic skill. Another unlucky player priest who had used up five resurrection stones said, basically all of them he encountered today were clear to him.

"Hey, don't say it, I think this account can be passed on to my grandson to play." The short priest who has just been complained about is also depressed, and it is basically the consensus of Arthur players that it is difficult for casters to level up.

In fact, a game that can't necessarily be upgraded by fighting monsters has become a very metaphysical thing to upgrade itself.

In the end, the elderly pastor had to say that he had to say something backward before he took a sip of water, and then walked out the door to accept the interview of Zhao Xu and others.

"You three talk to him, I'll stand here." Zhao Xu said.

At this time, he planned to perceive the relationship between the distance between him and Zheng Xinyun and the fluctuation of divine power.

However, Lei An thought that Zhao Xu had made a new discovery, and he was suddenly shocked, and he was busy communicating with his heart: "I'm waiting for your good news." ”

"This ......"
