What happened in front of him surprised Arrow.

He stretched out his hand to stop Brad, looked at the puppet over there who was still screaming, and said, "He...... How's it going? ”

The middle-aged priest's expression did not seem to indicate that the situation would improve, and after drinking away from the others, he began to concentrate on maintaining the physical condition of the puppet in front of him.

Although Arrow didn't know much magic, he felt a little warm about the gentle glow that appeared on the front of the priest's staff.

But even as the pastor struggled to make ends meet, hook-toothed rats swarmed around him. Many of them died, but a few survived and then ran into the depths of the Shining Forest like crazy and disappeared.

"Brad, Cream, Coco, let's get rid of those hook-toothed rats first."

Arrow gave an order, then looked at the middle-aged priest over there. The priest didn't speak, just turned his head to Arrow and smiled slightly, and nodded slightly. Seeing this, Arrow was finally sure that there was no problem with his decision, and then he watched the guild members step forward to fight with confidence.

The ability of hook-toothed rats is not outstanding, and many times it simply depends on the sheer number of them. And now the main targets of these hook-toothed rats are gathered on the puppets, and they seem to be completely unaware of human attacks, so it is not a hassle to kill.

Even so, the corpses piled up on the ground by these swarming hook-toothed rats were a little terrifying to Arrow. This continued for about an hour, and within the range of the orb of light, the carcasses of the hook-toothed rats had piled up into small mounds of dirt.

"It looks like the rat infestation in our town can be reduced a lot this winter."

Cream smiled and pulled the dagger out of a hook-toothed mouse's body. His hands already seemed to tremble a little from the continuous slashing.

Eventually, however, the number of hook-toothed rats in the vicinity gradually decreased.

Perhaps because of the growing light on the puppets, the hook-toothed rats began to rush at him as if they were fascinated. Even if they rush up, after seeing the mermaid song attack themselves, they will turn the rat's head as usual and flee in embarrassment.

"Whew...... All right. ”

As the priest exhaled slowly, the body of the puppet over there fell to the ground with a thud as if it had lost some kind of support, and it did not move.

Arrow glanced at the priest again, then at the puppet over there. I have to say that the current Muppet captain can no longer be called a ...... People, right?

His hands and feet were completely shrunken, and one of his faces was distorted, looking even more terrifying than some abstract paintings. The left half of the face is already left with bones, the ears on the right half of the face have melted off, the eyelids are pulled down directly to the mouth, and the eyeballs are about to fall out.

The priest stepped forward with his staff in his hand and looked at the current situation of the Muppet General, and a slight sadness appeared on his face.

"Although you saved him, I feel that letting him live like this is probably less painful than killing him directly."

Arrow muttered, and the priest was slightly stunned, but the wry smile on his face was still the same. He shook his head and said, "Do you want me, who serves God, to stab someone who is cursed when I encounter him?" ”

After saying that, the priest squatted down, reached out and gently pressed on the puppet's "piece of meat" that was still breathing, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, my abilities are really limited, and it is my limit to be able to dispel all the curses in your body before you die." Well...... I'm going to find a way to take you to church and see if there's anything the archbishop can do to help you. ”

The current puppet doesn't know if he can understand these words, and he doesn't even know if he still has the function of "hearing".

After speaking, the priest got up and faced Arrow on this side, smiled, and said, "The leader of the Mermaid Song Guild, Arrow Garcia, right?" Soldier under the command of Count Karp, Holy Bread, Blood Bondage. I've been hearing since I arrived at the camp that our army is working with a young president, and I've been thinking of meeting you. ”

Arrow crossed his hands on his hips: "See me?" What's the matter? ”

The priest named Holy Bread smiled, tapped the staff in his hand slightly, and said, "It's nothing, I just want to ask you about someone." The mayor of Pelican may only know about this town, but I think the president of the Adventurers' Guild should be a little more well-informed. ”

After a slight pause, the priest continued to laugh and say, "Excuse me, have you ever seen a girl with red hair, about eighteen or nineteen years old?" Not only this pelican town, but several nearby towns, and even other cities, have you ever seen one? ”

While asking questions, the priest took off his cloaked and placed it on the ground. At the same time, beckon Brad to come over and help carry the Muppet Captain onto the cloak.

"A young woman with red hair?"

Arrow thought about it for a moment, he did see a few when he was in the capital, but this kind of thing can't be told to a strange uncle casually.

"May I ask the priest, what are you looking for this red-haired young woman? Well...... Is she fat or skinny? Is it tall or short? ”

Being asked like this, the holy cake was a little bored, he thought about it, and finally shook his head, and said with a smile: "Forget it, if you haven't seen it, you haven't seen it." Let's go back to camp. ”

Arrow smiled and said, "I don't mean anything in particular, I really haven't seen it." But how did the Holy Bread Priest end up in the Shining Forest so late? How did you find Captain Muppet faster than we did? ”

Arrow deliberately spoke in this slightly provocative tone, just to see how the priest would react.

However, the holy bread was very calm, and he smiled: "It's just a coincidence." I'm a priest, but I don't have a strong affinity for light magic. So if you want to best treat the patient, you need to refine some medicines. And near Pelican Town, this shining forest has the most herbs. ”

As he spoke, he tried to lift the cloak with the puppet on it. But after a little exertion, the priest's face suddenly turned pale, and he let go of his hand and began to breathe heavily.

Then, he looked at the people in the Mermaid Song Guild with some embarrassment, and finally fell on Arrow: "That...... I'm really sorry. I was collecting medicine in the afternoon when I suddenly ran into him running into the forest. So before I met you, I had been casting spells for more than six hours straight...... I'm really tired. I wonder if you can help me bring the puppets back to camp? ”

Six hours straight? And then plus an hour after the encounter, this priest casts healing spells for seven hours in a row?

Slightly surprised, Arrow turned his head to look at Coco behind him.

A magician casts spells for seven hours in a row, and this can still be said to have a poor affinity for light magic? If that's not good, then what is this little necromancer of your own family?

Arrow reached out and touched the magic aerosol in the prop pocket, huh...... There's no need to waste money.

Then, he waved his hand: "Cream, Brad, help." ”

With the help of the Mermaid's Song, the Holy Cake's slightly pale face smiled again and nodded slightly.

Along the way, Holy Cake chatted with Arrow all the way. He seemed genuinely interested in the customs of Pelican Town, but he didn't seem to be very interested in the gold mines.

"You are the High Priest of the Holy See of Light?"

As he was about to reach the camp, Arrow was surprised by the identity of the Holy Bread!

In response to Arrow's surprise, the Holy Cake waved his hand and said with a smile: "Oops, don't look at me like that, it's not a big deal." ”

Seeing the surprised expression of his own president, Brad in the back asked, "What kind of high priest is this Holy See...... What is it? Why do you look so surprised? ”

Cream sighed, and he seemed to try his best to stabilize his emotions, and he said in a calm and calm mood: "High priest! Well, that is, the high priest of the Holy See of Light, what's so great? Haha, hahaha......"

Coco, on the other hand, craned her neck and looked at the high priest walking in front of her with a hostile gaze throughout, but the steel staff was hidden in the cloak, and she didn't even seem to dare to take it out.

Over there, as he walked, the Holy Bread continued, "Although I have been called by the God of Light to be given the status of High Priest, that does not mean that I am great. This identity has given me a greater sense of responsibility, and it makes me feel that I need to help more people and help more people. Only in this way can we be worthy of the faith of so many believers. ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at the puppet being carried next to him, and sighed sadly again: "It's a pity that my strength is still too weak...... If only there was a stronger magic of light...... Alas......"

Rather than the priest's self-pity, Arrow was more interested in his way of acting: "Your Excellency, High Priest, my God, God knows that I am actually talking to the High Priest of the Holy See of Light right now?" To be honest, I feel like you're talking nonsense. As far as I know, the high priests are either in the Holy See or are receiving a banquet from the nobles. I'm actually walking down a peasant's cart road in a border town and talking to a high priest of the Holy See of Light? Ha! It's incredible to think about! ”

Surprised to surprised, Arrow still suppressed his excitement, coughed and said-

"May I ask you, Your High Priest, why are you in such a place? And, why are you still a chaplain under Earl Karp? It stands to reason that although the High Priest does not have a so-called title, that Count Karp may not have any qualifications to call you, right? ”
