Chapter 81: The So-Called Mission Accomplished (2)
In the afternoon, at the invitation of Dean Sidney, Wang Peng and the four of them attended the funeral of Wendis Paladin, who died for honor in the Holy Light Auditorium. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The funeral was solemn and sacred, and was attended by Abbot Sidney, Gregory the Warrior, Count Bashir, and Lord Ronal. Although this middle-aged paladin did not have strong strength, he deeply adhered to the way of the paladin.
"Let us extend our sincerest wishes to this brave paladin, and may his soul live forever in the Light." The Archbishop in the Auditorium of the Holy Light personally sang a blessing to Wendis.
When the citizens of Searock heard about the deeds of the Vendis Knights, they all gathered around the Holy Light Auditorium in silence and solemnity, paying their respects to the man who saved the entire Searock Land.
In the auditorium, the most unexpected and regretful people should be those adventurers under the original Grova who had been bewitched by the evil spells of the lich, looking at Wendis's urn, their hearts kept coming to their minds what Wendis and Grova said to them when they confronted each other, and why! Why didn't they listen to it at the time? They felt very guilty for Wendis's death, and for the culprit Glovar and the Scourge Legion, they all made up their minds at this moment to completely eradicate the undead Scourge!
"Karina, don't cry, you should be glad that this warrior has thrown into the arms of the Light." Count Bashir touched Karina's hair with his left hand, and at this moment, Count Bashir's right hand was already empty.
"Yes." Karina wiped away her tears.
Karina also remembered Wendis's comfort in prison, encouragement on the way to escape, and finally desperate to save a few of them, but he died like this. Young Karina couldn't stop crying at the thought of this.
Wang Peng and the others all stood behind Dean Sidney with respect and sentimentality, unable to say a word in this solemn environment.
Eventually, Wendis's ashes were buried in the cemetery behind the Auditorium of Light, a tribute to the Paladin, who believed in the power of the Light. Wang Peng looked at Wendis's ashes buried in the soil, and suddenly sighed in his heart that death was so close to him. Look at Wendis's tombstone with the epitaph inscribed for him by Lord Ronal himself: The Hero Who Guarded the Land of Sea Rocks. Wang Peng suddenly felt a trace of sadness, is this really worth it? But Wang Peng thought of his protection of Yan Xi again, maybe everyone will have something to protect.
After the funeral, Karina found Wang Peng in the crowd.
"Are you okay?" Karina reluctantly laughed and looked at Wang Peng.
"yes." Wang Peng replied dryly.
After saying a word, both of them seemed to be embarrassed there. Karina came to Wang Peng just to ask how Wang Peng was doing, but she didn't think about anything after that.
"Members of your squad?" Wang Peng tried to ask.
Hearing this, Karina's face suddenly changed, and her originally red eyes began to leave crystal tears again, and Wang Peng's question poked the pain in Karina's heart again. If I hadn't gone to Linzuo Town, maybe none of them would have died, it was my fault, it was all my fault.
Seeing Karina crying, Wang Peng suddenly felt at a loss. Looking at the girl in front of him, Wang Peng, who was proud of this arrogant but kind girl, suddenly felt a little unbearable in his heart, and secretly blamed himself for why he said this sadness. And Yan Xi next to Wang Peng looked at the red-eyed young girl, but she was not as annoying as before, this girl was also strange and pitiful at the moment, and she was very kind at heart, she lost her partner and almost lost her father.
As if hearing Karina's cry, Count Bashir walked over and touched his daughter's head, who had indeed suffered a lot.
"Wang Peng, young knight, I heard that you showed courage later, I believe you will be a powerful paladin."
Count Bashir looked at Wang Peng and nodded approvingly, Count Bashir himself had long known that his daughter had fallen in love with this young knight who had no background, but in the eyes of the Earl, how could a person who was two years older than Karina, but whose rank was even lower than Karina, be worthy of his daughter! But looking at the rapid growth of Wang Peng's strength and the spiritual charm he has repeatedly displayed, Count Bashir feels that maybe in a few years, Wang Peng will definitely become one of the best people in Haiyan City! Maybe at that time, Karina and Wang Peng were also good together.
It's just that this guy seems to already have someone he likes, Count Bashir looked at Yan Xi on the side. But this is not a big problem, which powerful person will not have a chic history.
"Thank you, Lord Earl, for the compliment." Wang Peng said respectfully.
"Well, let's go, Karina, let's go home first." Earl Bashir looked at his daughter, then turned to Wang Peng and the others and said, "You are welcome to come to the Worthford family when you have time. ”
So saying, Count Bashir took Karina and rode away in the carriage. The people around the Holy Light Auditorium gradually dispersed, and Wang Peng and the others also planned to go back to the academy. But just as Wang Peng and the others walked out of the door of the Holy Light Auditorium, suddenly, a respected priest stopped Wang Peng and his party.
"You're Wang Peng, right?" The priest asked, still a little confused.
This is a powerful and elderly priest in the Holy Light Auditorium, a 64-level holy priest named Johnson, who was also a member of Master Rodri's group to rescue the Earl, so Wang Peng also knew something about this person.
I saw Father Johnson dressed in a silver-rimmed white robe and holding a wooden box in his hand.
"Yes, I am Wang Peng." Wang Peng said respectfully to the priest.
"Come with me, I have some relics to give you." The priest said with a sigh on his face.
"Relic?" Wang Peng said in surprise, what relics?
Then Wang Peng asked Yan Xi and the others to wait outside the auditorium for a while, and he followed the priest into the auditorium and walked in front of the sacred silver-white cross.
"You must be confused, let me tell you what happened." Father Johnson looked at the small box he was holding.
"When I went to visit Wendis's body, I regretted to find that the heroic paladin Wendis had died, but as a holy priest, I have the ability to communicate with the soul of the dead, although Wendis is dead, but at that moment his soul is still not dissipated, he saw your heroic performance through the soul, he knows that he is dead, and what he has left is useless, he hopes that I can give you these things, I hope that one day you can be called a true paladin."
The priest sighed, held the box in both hands, and stretched it out to Wang Peng.
Listening to the priest's words, Wang Peng felt very shocked, this is a gift from Wendis!
