Chapter Seventy-One: The Black Ship and the Witch King
"That's when I thought chaos was cute." The Shadow Assassin looked into Xu Yichen's eyes: "That old warlock stood up before the nuns made a move, I couldn't believe my eyes, I slept in his storeroom while I was lurking!" I'm sure he wasn't hiding in that village, he really lived there, 8 years. β
"In the past 8 years, I have never used my own strength, so I have become a farmer so peacefully, and I plan to end the rest of my life." The Shadow Assassin's voice was a little agitated: "If it weren't for the fact that he summoned a weird-looking little thing in front of everyone, even his neighbors wouldn't believe it." β
"When the little thing danced for everyone, and then bowed like someone present, and took the old warlock's broken hat like the people present to pay for it, I knew that this old warlock must have lived on this for a while. Because I've seen circus props in his storeroom. The Shadow Assassin restrained his emotions.
"The nuns, tying up the warlock with his pet, burned everyone in the village in front of him, in the name of contact with Chaos. He tried to resist and was touched by a nun in armor and lost all his strength. In the end, the nuns burned his pet before burning him. "The Shadow Assassin tells a cruel story.
"I was hiding in the shadows, I was so scared that I couldn't move, I was scared to death! The nuns burned everyone to death, and in the process they didn't say a word, and the men, women, children, and even the animals in the village didn't spare any of them, as natural as eating and drinking. The Shadow Assassin said, giving Xu Yichen one last look.
"Actually, lone demon hunters are on their hunting list."

"Where did you know that the Black Ship was going to dock here?" Pastor Richard wore a special white robe that concealed his Mr. Bodybuilder-like figure, and at this time he appeared as amiable as other pastors, except for the occasional flash of light in his eyes, which made people feel like he had been slashed by a knife.
"Demon hunters always have some unpopular news channels, don't they?" Xu Yichen paid a slight salute to the statue of Campas, and poured all the gold coins in his money bag into the offering box under the statue, of course, the money bag was just bought when he passed by on the street.
Priest Richard stared at Xu Yichen's eyes for a while, and suddenly smiled: "You really deserve to be the person Aragorn fancies, in terms of lying, you are simply carved out of the same mold as him." β
"Listen kid, your teacher asked me to take care of you here for a while, I really don't want you to get into any big trouble." Pastor Richard sat on his chair, and the screams from the chair made Xu Yichen guess that this strong man, who looked like a warrior more than a priest, must be wearing a full set of chain mail under his robe.
"I don't know where you got the news of the Black Ship's coming, and I don't care, but I warn you not to get involved in anything related to the Black Ship." Pastor Richard stretched out his hand and motioned for Xu Yichen to sit across from him.
"The sturdy nuns don't have a friendly attitude towards demon hunters." Xu Yichen once again got the news from the words of others that the Sister of the Heart of the Sincere would have malicious intentions towards the Demon Hunters.
"But we have the same goal, shouldn't we be counted as one side? Why are they a threat to me? Xu Yichen asked Pastor Richard tentatively.
"You see, the nuns of the Sisters never thought they were in the same league as anyone, whether it was demon hunters or other otherworldly organizations, including us vicarators of the gods." Priest Richard waved a few of the paladins on duty in the temple to step down.
"Your teacher told you about the Fire Transmission Protocol, right?" Pastor Richard asked.
Xu Yichen nodded: "I've said a few things about the Ottoman Empire and Chaos, as well as the agreement between the Transcendental Organization and the Demon Hunters." β
Reverend Richard pondered for a moment: "When I say this, you should understand that nearly half of the rulers of the New World, the Witch Kings, are survivors of the Ottoman Empire, and they are the ones who first started the study of chaos, causing the opening of the first chaos gate, and they are also the group of people who have studied chaos the most. β
"The power of the Witch King is very strong, although they are also fighting against Chaos, but the main achievement of those mages who can transcend the limits of mortals and become Witch Kings is through the study of Chaos." Pastor Richard whispered to Xu Yichen: "They don't even give the gods face, and the current situation is that we don't mess with them, and they don't mess with us, you understand?" β
Xu Yichen finally understood why an organization loyal to the rulers of the New World could hunt down awakened warlocks and witches all over the world, because the backers behind these nuns were big enough!
After Richard finished the last sentence, he prayed sincerely in front of the idol of Kampas for a while, and his words were so fast that Xu Yichen only vaguely heard a few words: "Boss... Forgive.... It's all ... Do a friend a favor. β
Looking at the resolute Richard Priest saying the same prayer in black words, Xu Yichen felt that if he wanted to choose a god as his faith, Campas was actually a pretty good backer.
"Normally, if there is a black ship arriving, we will receive the news and prepare in advance for the work to prevent that group of nuns from ruining the city." Before Xu Yichen left, Richard Priest warned: "I will send someone to search the nearby waters, if there is really a black ship entering the city without notification, something must have happened, I hope you don't get involved." β
"Thank you very much for the reminder, maybe it's just a rumor in the market, don't worry about Lord Richard." Xu Yichen greeted Pastor Richard and retired.
Before leaving, Richard Priest shouted at his back: "If you really run into any trouble, come to me, maybe I can save your life." β
Xu Yichen's figure paused, turned around and bowed to Pastor Richard, did not speak again, and left the temple.
Xu Yichen went out on the front foot, and Pastor Richard on the back foot instructed the guards of the temple to contact other temples immediately to see if anyone had gotten the news of the black ship entering the country.
"Wave after wave, Black Ship, Sisters, Chaos Worshippers, and Demon Hunters have all gathered together, and Antoine will probably be scared to death when he knows the news." Richard muttered to himself, and got up to go to the lord's lean.
At this time, Xu Yichen was sending a text message to the female warrior: "There is another big deal, are you interested?" β
Without waiting for the female warrior to reply to the message, Xu Yichen was shrouded in shadows by a tall black shadow.
A shrill voice sounded behind him, "You're that Seris Ranger?" β
