Chapter 148: The Mission Continues
The city of Wallatze, the temple of God.
The white stairs went up one by one, and past the two guardian paladins in glittering light and silver and white armor, Wei Lun and Wu Qi walked into the magnificent and golden hall of the Holy Church.
The hall's high fan-shaped flame vault is glittering with light, and the stained glass reflects the brilliant and beautiful morning glow, which is clearly holy and magnificent.
The hall was tall and wide, and even though a large number of commoners and nobles came and went, they still did not feel any crowded. The sound of everyone's footsteps is very low, and the communication is also very low-whispered, in the empty hall, but it sets off a kind of quiet in the high and far sky.
A white-robed priest next to the hall was leading the richly dressed nobles in worship, and Wu Qi looked sideways and realized that it was not the one he had met last time. However, the gray-robed clerk who came to meet him and was in charge of the reception was still the same as before.
After Willen reported his identity, the gray-robed apprentice priest looked respectful, the Templar Sect is not a place of immortals who do not eat the fireworks of the world, more precisely, most of the conflicts of interests on the mainland stem from the disputes of different faiths, and they are more persistent in some interests, so naturally they will not inevitably follow the class stratification on the mainland. Otherwise, there would not have been a situation where the nobles knelt on their knees in the seats in the side chambers and worshipped, while the commoners had to wait outside the stairs outside the door of the temple last time.
After expressing his desire to meet with the Red Bishop Archpriest Rennes, the Red Robe Clerk hurriedly turned around and went to pay his respects.
Wu Qi was silent, the initiator of the task was the red-robed Bishop Archpriest Rennes, and he went around and around, but the key to the task returned to him, which made him feel a little confused and abrupt······
The gray-robed priest soon returned, and he bowed to Willen in a low voice, "Archpriest Wren is waiting for you. ”
Under the guidance of the gray-robed priest, Wu Qi and the two walked up the spiraling wooden staircase, and then through a dark passageway, and finally stopped in front of a room.
The door of the room hall opened, and before the gray-robed priest could report it, Grand Priest Wren had already sensed it earlier, and he turned around and his gaze fell on Willen.
"What do I see above?" Archpriest Wren's face was full of joy, and he hurried towards Willen, the red priest's robe fluttering slightly under the drumming breath.
He walked up to Willen, patted the azure armor on Willen's body, and nodded, "The eagle of the Hobart Kingdom is willing to spread its wings again, this is the best news I've heard recently." ”
As he spoke, Archpriest Wren looked sideways at Wu Qi, who was standing silently aside, and greeted with a smile, "Long time no see, young Master Yan." ”
"Long time no see, Your Excellency Archpriest Rennes." Wu Qi leaned over slightly and performed a mage salute.
Wei Lun was half helpless, half wry, "I made up my mind not to pay attention to the affairs of the kingdom, but the changes in the situation forced me to give up those thoughts." ”
"Oh?" Archpriest Wren restrained the smile on his face, and his expression became serious and serious, "Holy light, Willen, you know, the Templar sect does not participate in any noble battles in the Hobart Kingdom, this is an oracle from His Majesty Pope Gregory II. ”
"Of course I do, Wren? Verdel, I haven't seen you for years, and you're still so stubborn. Willen shook his head.
"His Holiness the Pope's will cannot be changed." Archpriest Wren's face remained unchanged.
"But what if it involves the Dark Temple?" Willen smiled slightly, looking like he had the chance to win.
"The Dark Temple? Those wicked backsliders, worms hiding in the dark? Archpriest Wren's face changed, his pupils constricted, staring at Willen, the momentum erupted, and the space was filled with the elemental aura of light and holiness, "Willen, what do you know?" ”
Wu Qi was agitated by the sudden and unrivaled aura, and his body involuntarily took two steps back.
Grand Priest Ren noticed Wu Qi's movements, he suddenly realized his gaffe, and quickly reined in, and said a little apologetically: "I'm sorry, young Master Yan. ”
He drew a cross on his chest and silently said to himself, "May the Holy Light shine on you." ”
After doing this, Wren looked at Willen again, "Willen, my old friend, what did the Dark Temple do that alarmed you?" ”
Wei Lun smiled slightly, he looked sideways at Wu Qi, "Young Yan Mage Jin Song, since you found out, it's up to you to tell Wren." ”
"Hmm." Wu Qi nodded, starting from accepting Crane's mission until he got Crowed's note on transforming the Void Demon.
"No wonder." Archpriest Wren sighed, "Originally, I found out that there was an evil aura in Crowed's village, but it was not appropriate to check it for identity reasons. ”
As he spoke, Wren frowned, "Young Yan Mage Jin Song, although you are the inheritor of Yan Mage, if there is no conclusive evidence, even our Templar Sect cannot easily investigate this matter. After all, Viscount Willen knew that the nobles of the Kingdom were most taboo about people from the Templar Sect interfering in the affairs of the nobles, which was not conducive to the effective spread of our faith in the Kingdom. ”
Wu Qi suddenly understood at this time that the importance of the Void Demon Transformation Notes, which he originally thought was very important, was actually dispensable.
At worst, this is against the existence of thousands of races across the continent, but the reality is that this notebook is likely to be exploited by greedy and ambitious aristocrats. Wu Qi tried to use it as a sharp weapon to trip Viscount Crowed, but he still took it for granted, and underestimated the greed and short-sightedness of these nobles. Even Archpriest Wren didn't mention the matter of the Void Demon Transformation Notes, he knew these nobles of the Hobart Kingdom too well!
But fortunately, the result of the Void Demon's transformation note as a stepping stone is not bad, at least in the case that Wu Qi did not come up with any substantive evidence, whether it is Will or Wren, they are already inclined to believe Wu Qi's statement in their hearts.
"But? If Viscount Crowled really colluded with the Dark Temple, then it probably means that the nobles of the Prime Minister's party are not unaware of this matter, and if ······"
Wren nodded, "You really can't sit and wait. ”
"We Templars have no intention of fighting the nobility, but if we are involved in those evil worms hiding in the darkness, the Light of the Lord will not tolerate it." Wren said righteously, he looked at Wu Qi, "I will start some arrangements to investigate Viscount Crowed." However, now that the laws of Ethevan have changed, it is easy for us to be limited to certain restrictions. ”
"Young Flame Mage, you are the best existence in the Otherworld Continent, and you need to be responsible for investigating the most critical steps of Viscount Crowed."
