Chapter 422: The Sought-After Fitandila

The Witch Hunters, as they are scornfully referred to as the Knights Templar, are officially known as the Knights Templar and date back to before the Empire was founded.

At that time, in order to deal with the growing number of Chaos, undead and heretics corrupted by them, Sigmar specially appointed his loyal lieutenant, the "Grey Silver Knight" Walga Gulig, to secretly form a special force called the "Knights of the Silver Hammer" to secretly fight against all evil sorcery and magic.

Since then, the silver hammer has guarded the empire in the dark shadows, and they are the precursors of the witch hunters.

In the following decades, the empire was established and Sigma disappeared, and it was not long before the "Sigmar Church", a new sect that worshiped the great founding emperor as God, rose rapidly and swept through the entire empire, replacing the "White Wolf Cult" in Middenheim as the largest religious organization in the empire, known as the state religion.

The reason why this new church has grown so quickly is inseparable from Sigmar's incomparable prestige and the strong support of the imperial government, whether overt or implicit, as well as its status as its first great reciter.

He was the apprentice of Walga Gulig and the second Master of the Knights of the Silver Hammer.

In ancient documents, which are inaccessible to ordinary people, there is a vague record of some of the dirty work that the Knights did in the early days of the Church, and since then, every Grand Chanter of the "Sigma Church" has also served as the supreme leader of the witch hunters.

It's just that the existence of the latter has always been a secret, and those "weirdos" who walk around the empire and use all kinds of extreme means to rudely judge heretics and all related heresies are just personal acts like rangers in the eyes of the vast majority of people, and in the eyes of ordinary people, most of the time they bring fear no less than those evil creatures and witchcraft, so they have earned the disdainful name of "witch hunters".

It was not until around 1600 that due to a series of political struggles and games, the existence of the "Knights of the Silver Hammer" was officially made public, and under a new name, the "Knights Templar of Sigmar", became independent.

The location of their headquarters was revealed, and from the dark underground to the countertop, it was the "Silver Temple" where Brienne and Fitandila were located.

"Personally, though, I don't hate the term "Witch Hunter", as I find it more straightforward and easier to know than "Sigmar Templar". ”

In a spacious, bright, neat and clean room, a richly dressed aristocratic man stood in front of Brienne and Fitandila, and talked about the history of witch hunters.

The man whose aristocratic aura exuded every cell in his body was Chamberlain Christant, about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with his short silver hair neatly combed back and every strand of his hair meticulous.

The glow of the setting sun through the stained glass reflects the sparkling light of the water.

The young man's official position was that of the Council Executive of the Sigmar Templar Order, commonly known as the Grand Steward of the Order.

Brienne knew this position, not counting the titular Sigma Grand Chanter, who was second only to the Lord Protector and the twelve Marquis of the Inner Ring Council among all the witch hunters, and was responsible for the financial management and logistics of the Knights, and was higher than the leader of the witch hunter squad who commanded the day-to-day operations.

Unexpectedly, after showing the guard Viscount Mill's letter to the guard at the door, they were taken to this room to meet the big man among the witch hunters.

This also proved her previous judgment, the lord of the "Arsenal Fort" was definitely a witch hunter, and his position was not low, at least he was also a senior witch hunter captain.

"Lady Fitandila, I already know about you, including the thrilling battle in Bordertown, which deserves to be celebrated in every tavern, this is Miss Brienne, Sigma is on top! is worthy of being a beauty, and it really deserves its name! ”

Chamberlain's voice was very infectious, and although it was only the first time we met, there was no sense of strangeness, but I could feel full of honesty and enthusiasm.

He continued:

"I personally welcome Fetamburg into the arms of the Empire and Sigmar, Lady Fitandila, knowing that you are the only candidate recommended by the Marquis of Havelock for so many years, and I believe in his choice, and I ask you to believe that the choice of the Empire was the right one. ”

It seems that Mill Havelock has already contacted the witch hunter's headquarters through other channels, and the supple is just a tool to prove his identity, and the executive officer is clearly prepared.

Fitandila, who had never encountered this situation, was a little flattered, and she didn't expect that she would encounter such courtesy, so she talked to the other party a little crampedly.

Brienne, who was acting as a guard, frowned quietly.

The Marquis of Havelock?

Could it be that the actual identity of the lord of the "Fort Bundhar" was one of the twelve Marquis of the Inner Ring Council?

That's the big man in the witch hunters!

It is no wonder that Fitandila received such a high salary, not only did the council executive personally come forward to receive her, but also briefly introduced some secrets of the Order that outsiders could not understand at all.

The obvious purpose is to help her dispel the terrible stereotypes about witch hunters, and deliberately promote herself as the protector of the empire.

Is it really what Chamberlain said?

Not necessarily.

At least in the days of Brienne's games a few decades later, the witch hunter was definitely not as good as he said he was.

Whether it's an NPC or a player after a class change, it's more like an executioner than a protector.

They often do whatever it takes to achieve the end of the trial, preferring to kill a thousand by mistake rather than spare one.

According to Brienne's understanding, their style of acting has always been like this, and the words of the little white face opposite are definitely putting gold on their faces.

But Fitandilla, who basically didn't know anything before, didn't know philosophy, and the other party's conversation was so good, just look at her expression and know that she was moved.

So Chamberlain's intention in doing this was...... They want to recruit Fitandila and become one of the witch hunters!

This is not good news for Brienne.

On the one hand, the "Arsenal Fort" is at the heart of the Frontier Prince's Domain, and his "Steel Rock" is not far to the south, and if Mill Havelock's true identity is that of a witch hunter, the Marquis of the Inner Ring Council, it is definitely not good news.

The strength of the other party is definitely much stronger than it appears, and the witch hunters and even the empire attach no importance to it as easily as it seems now.

On the other hand, Brienne had just received the Holy Light, and she was full of joy thinking about how to fool Fitandila and Fetanburg into the arms of the new faith, only to be overtaken by others in the blink of an eye?

Can this be endured?

If Fitandila does convert to Sigma, then "Fort Fetan" will be on the same side as "Fort Gunku" in a minute, like a sharp dagger, dead against the throat of the tribe of stones and broken claws, so that they cannot advance or retreat.

Presumably this is why Mill Havelock thinks so highly of her.

Fortunately, she came with Fitandila today, and figured out the details behind it in advance, and this matter is not without a chance to turn things around.

We have to find a way to get them into the yellow color.
