According to Resok, the reason why they came to this town early in the morning was because they heard the news that Kaos would come here to take away the priestesses, so they ran around all night, hoping to intercept the way before the other party took them away, so that they could not only save the priestesses, but also catch Kaos, who was one of the high-ranking members of the church, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

"What did this guy do, to spend so much effort trying to catch him?"

Kidd glanced at Kaos, who didn't dare to speak next to him, and asked a little strangely, "You guys brought at least four or five hundred people this time, and the anti-church army has so many troops?" ”

"The army is quite abundant, after all, there are not a few people in China who support us, but it's a pity that the high-end combat power is much worse than the church."

Resok also looked at Kaos as he spoke, and snorted: "As for this guy, he is a shameless bastard at all, you don't know how many families and how many priestesses he has taken away by relying on the power of the church before coming to this town!" ”

As soon as these words came out, countless eyes suddenly fell on Kaos's face, and the guy shrank back in fright, almost hitting the pillar, and stammered:

"This, this can't all be blamed on me, it's all orders from above, can I not obey it......"

"So you can watch as many families are torn apart and innocent girls are sent to the Holy See?" Resok stood up suddenly, slapped the table, and roared at Kaos, "You didn't ask your conscience to betray your compatriots for your own future?" ”

"I, I'm ......" Kaos dodged his eyes, wanting to explain, but under Resock's aggressive momentum, he finally lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything more.

"Humph!"

Resok glared at him again before sitting down in a huff.

"And what are you going to do next?" Xia Nuo, who had been sitting quietly on the main seat and watching, asked at this time: "You can take this Kaos with you, what about those poor little girls, is it more appropriate to send them back to their families?" ”

"Kaos we really want to take them, as for those little girls......" Resock's face showed a hint of hesitation, and then sighed, "It's a bit difficult, if it were in the north, we would definitely send them home, but this is the southernmost town, so it's not very suitable......"

"Does it make a difference?" Xano asked.

"Yes, and the difference is huge."

At this point, Resok took out a map from his backpack and unfolded it on the table, then stood up and explained as he gestured with his hand:

"You see, this is our map of the Principality of Sambia, bounded by the mountains in the middle, divided into the southern region and the northern region, of which there are twelve cities in the south and fifteen in the north, but the population is not much different."

"Six years ago, the ocean storm started sweeping from the southern ports, and by the time it crossed the mountains and began to affect the northern regions, the destructive power had diminished a lot. As a result, the drought in the south has not only lasted longer than in the north, but has also been much more severe, almost to the point of devastation. ”

Xia Nuo suddenly heard something and raised his eyebrows slightly: "So, the southern region has a better level of respect for the church?" ”

"Yes, the Vulcan Cult started from the south and gradually developed in the first place."

Resok nodded, and said helplessly, "In fact, after the church sat firmly in power, overthrew the royal family, and began to show its true colors, the people in the north have begun to regret their previous choice, but in the south, especially in the rural areas near the sea, the church still has the supreme authority, I dare to guarantee that the priests here are all sent by their parents on their own initiative, even if they are sent home, as soon as we leave, it is estimated that they will still be sent to the church by their families." ”

Also.

Xia Nuo and the others all nodded, they knew this very well, whether it was the old man's respectful appearance to the church before, or the menacing expression of the townspeople when he rescued Thea, all of them could prove this.

"So, here's what I think."

Resock's gaze turned back to Xano, and he said with a serious face, "We will leave here with Kaos in a few moments, and I hope you can help us keep an eye on these poor girls for the time being, and don't let them fall into the hands of the church again, until we can rush back again tomorrow night." ”

"If it's a temporary care, of course there's no problem." "But what do you mean by saying that you will come back late?" Aren't you afraid that the reinforcements from the church will arrive when they hear the news and block you here? ”

"This ......"

Resok hesitated for a little for two seconds, but finally sighed and explained: "Don't hide it from you, our anti-church army has been dormant for more than a year, the time is ripe for a counteroffensive, and in the past two days, we will carry out operations across the country one after another, I will also lead my soldiers today to attack Puton City, sixty kilometers away, as long as it can be successfully taken, the southeast region and the central region we have controlled will be connected, and then we can mobilize our forces and officially start the general attack on the Vulcan Cult." ”

"Huh?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the Wind Pirates was shocked and couldn't help but look at each other.

Xia no was also a little surprised, although he had guessed that there might be anti-church forces in the Principality of Sambia, but he didn't expect that the situation had actually reached this point, so it seemed that they had strayed into a war that was about to start?

"How sure are you?" At this time, Ivy suddenly frowned slightly and interjected: "If you are defeated, if we continue to stay here, won't we also be affected?" ”

"Rest assured, before the general decisive battle with the Holy See, it is absolutely impossible for our side to lose."

Resok patted his chest and swore an oath: "My Resock's reputation is really good, and the cardinal in charge of Puton City is already here, not to mention that the rest of the people can beat me alone, even if we go together, I am not afraid, not to mention that our forces are also superior!" ”

"Well, we agreed, and we will help to watch these girls until you return victorious."

When Xia Nuo heard this, he also knew that it was unlikely to change the mind of this rugged man, so he nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "Don't leave it here, I wish you all the best." ”

"Thank you so much!"

Resok was overjoyed, hurriedly bowed deeply, and then took the people around him, walked out of the church gate in the farewell of Xia no and others, and led the army to leave the town in a mighty way, heading towards the northeast.

After seeing these anti-church soldiers leave, Xia Nuo led everyone back to the church, everyone hadn't rested well, he was about to arrange the next shift of personnel, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed a special figure in front of the long table, and couldn't help but be a little stunned:

"Why are you still here?"
