Chapter 358: Exam Feeding
Early the next morning, Frey, who had received a message from the Syvi Owl, rushed to the academy.
Looking at the other party's obviously tired expression, and the dark circles under his eyes that were difficult to hide, Sivi couldn't help but think, 'This guy shouldn't have slept all night, right?' Such thoughts.
This is indeed the case.
If she just stayed up late, it would naturally not have such a big impact on the physical strength of Frei, but a series of events that began to occur last night made her nerves tense all the time.
In the early hours of this morning, a Templar who had gone for a shift change discovered that all of the camp's Night's Watch had been attacked at some point, with their necks broken, and that during the ensuing search, they found a skeleton in the tent of Sister Jomia, who was missing......
Subsequently, after the cardinal's divine examination, the skeleton turned out to be Jomiah himself!
This can be regarded as an explosion, the whole camp fell into a state of nervous tension, the whereabouts of the saint are unknown, and the holy nun died again, making everyone in danger, for fear that they will be killed by the hand stretched out from the shadows in the next moment.
This state of affairs lasted until the arrival of Sivi's letter, and after learning that he had rescued the Holy Maiden, the remaining believers hurriedly left the camp, and Frey rushed directly to the Adric Academy in the magical creature Perseus, and was really relieved to see the young girl curled up in the corner of the four-poster bed like a koala with a velvet pillow in her arms.
Sivi, on the other hand, was confused when he learned that Yomiah was dead......
He and Elilia are behind bars. It was because of the Holy Lady Jomia, who suddenly learned that the initiator was dead...... And he died quite miserably, which is equivalent to cutting off the most important clue at hand.
"We'll be able to ask Lady Elilia later, but if you can, can you tell me how you found her?"
I don't know if Lu Dao saw Xiwei's confusion, the girl's eyes stared at him, and her face was full of serious expressions.
Just like the girl said, even if Sivi wanted to hide it, Eliria, who had walked with him all the way, would definitely tell the Holy See what she saw without reservation.
So Xiwei also told what he had seen and heard, but he carefully concealed the things about the system.
Although a lot of things sound like a fantasy. But Frey listened carefully to everything that Syvi had to say. Only then did he nod his head: "I understand, from the position of a friend, I believe in you." β
"And what about the position of the Guardian of the Holy Maiden and the head of the Knights Templar?" Xiwei, who said that his mouth was dry, took a sip of the black tea prepared by Alice and asked casually.
"Allow me to take it with a grain of salt."
"Okay." Sivi shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
He gestured to the couch, still in his pajamas, hugging the pillow. A certain saint with a sleepy face: "No matter what. This holy woman will be handed over to you in earnest. β
"Thank you very much for your help."
The Holy Silver Sword Ji stood up. Bending down, he thanked him sincerely: "Also, although I personally want to stay in your academy for a few more days, I am frightened because of the Holy Maiden's crown. So I had to return to the Sanctuary early. β
"Yes, I understand." Xiwei also put down the teacup and showed a kind smile: "May the goddess of Qiyao be with you." β
The Holy Silver Sword is worthy of being a rare activist in the Holy See.
After she greeted Xiwei, she didn't even wait for the other Holy See personnel to arrive, she directly picked up the Holy Woman who was very sleepy because she had become a young girl (of course, it may also be due to excessive blood loss), and returned on the Holy See's magic ship.
The resoluteness even made the representatives of the other colleges in Madale think that there was a dispute between Sivi and the Sanctuary......
"Is that really okay?"
Because Sivi returned in time, at least there is no need to pretend to be his Fett floating lazily in the air today: "Judging from what you have encountered, it is clear that there are other existences behind that Holy Lady Nun, right?" β
"That should be a headache for the Holy Domain, this conspiracy was clearly aimed at the Holy Domain from the beginning, otherwise it wouldn't have been after I mixed it in, and the people behind the scenes directly killed the Holy Lady in order to cover up the facts."
Sivi yawned, it had been a hard night for him.
"So what do we do next?"
Fett tilted her head to think about it, but her ghost head didn't seem to be very bright for thinking about such things, so she asked dryly.
"I think you've been getting shorter and shorter to think lately...... Think about it for yourself once in a while. β
Sivi sighed firstβsure enough, he had to find a ghost species full of knowledge about politics or this aspect: "Now of course, we can do what we need to do, and continue to do it, so that those guys who are hiding behind the scenes don't come to trouble us." β
"Oooh! Do you want to pretend that 'we don't know anything'? β
Fett first nodded as if he suddenly realized, and then showed a suspicious expression: "Wait, don't you already know who the guy behind the curtain is?" β
"How is it possible, I am not an all-knowing and all-powerful god."
Drinking the slightly cold black tea in one gulp, the slightly stronger black tea than usual just relieves a little bit of Xiwei's sleepiness, and Alice is always able to provide empathetic service.
Xiwei kneaded his eyes a few times and stood up: "It's just that there aren't many guys who like to do this kind of thing, so it's just a little guessing." β
Facing the girl's increasingly skeptical look, he continued unconcernedly: "In short, the actual combat assessment continues, and we have to start preparing for the next third round of exams. β
At this point, he paused and rubbed his temples as if he had thought of something: "Wait......"
"What's wrong?" The ghost girl, who was still disgruntled just now, immediately asked with concern.
"Do you remember what I said earlier, about the dolls in that dungeon?"
"Of course, I'm not a salamander head (a salamander, an aquatic creature with a crusade level of less than 2, and it is said that my memory can only last seven seconds), and the predecessor of True Red is also one of those seven dolls, right?"
The ghost girl crossed her hands on her hips and said dissatisfiedly.
"That's right, and I always feel that the ultimate goal behind this incident is also related to those dolls." Xiwei touched his chin, and the corners of his mouth showed a playful slightness: "So, let's release a new task for the students in the third exam - to collect information on the original eight clan puppets." β
"It's too messy, hey!"
"Haha, messing around is the tradition of Edric......"
"Where did the tradition come from, aren't you the founder!"
"Sivi. A tradition passed down from Edric. β
"Don't pass on this bad quality!"
A man and a ghost walked out of the dean's room in a playful manner...... (To be continued......)
