After not seeing him for a while, the originally energetic Bishop of Rhodes looked much haggard, with short disheveled hair and wrinkled forehead.

If you just look at his mental outlook, I'm afraid no one would have imagined that this person had just "won a battle".

"Victor will remain in Nyam as vicar.

The middle-aged bishop, who was under the statue of an angel, said: "The reason is that there may be hellish forces secretly playing tricks in this holy water case, and the authorities have decided to investigate it. ”

"What does this have to do with the punishment for the failure of the bishop himself?"

"It didn't matter, someone dragged it hard, and it mattered."

Rhodes said in a complicated tone, and then looked at Bernie with a look of helplessness.

"All I can say is that a lot of things have opened my eyes since becoming bishop."

Bernie shrugged his shoulders and said nothing about it.

The middle-aged bishop did not continue the topic, but changed the conversation.

"Your position has also been adjusted, you will be an official priest, but not a priest of Morse Church, you have been assigned to Hammer Island, where you will be the resident priest."

"Mace Island?" Bernie was stunned.

The name was familiar to him, or rather, the citizens of Neuham were familiar with it.

Because the island is so close to Neuham, it can be reached by sailing in about two hours.

The distance is close, and the flow of people between each other is naturally more.

But this flow is not in the normal sense, but full of filth and filth—

The island is a gold cave.

brothels, casinos, black markets......

Hammer Island has a lot of entertainment, which attracts people from all walks of life.

Ordinary people, gangsters, thieves, robbers, pirates, heretics and even cultists who have fun......

If Neuham, who was involved in the smuggling of holy water, is a basin of clear water mixed with a few stones, then Hammer Island must be a cup of stinky water.

I don't know how many germs and toxins are mixed in this glass of stinky water, not to mention drinking, just smelling it, or even looking at it, can make a decent person wrinkle his nose.

Bernie wasn't a decent man, and to say that he would even be at home in that kind of place, that doesn't mean he likes it.

Because it was beyond his plans.

"By observing your performance during this time, the above believes that you are capable and have business experience, so I am looking forward to you being able to solve some problems on Mace Island."

Rhodes explained, "It's not a good job, but I can't argue with that reason. ”

"Was it arranged by the archbishop?" Bernie asked with a groan.

"The Archbishop himself decides on the personnel arrangements within the kingdom."

Rhodes replied, and then comforted him: "Actually, this is not a bad thing, the resident priest of Hammer Island has a lot more treatment than Morse, even if there are some situations in that environment, everyone can understand, and if you can make some achievements, it will be obvious as well." ”

Bernie didn't say anything, he was thinking about the transfer.

It's hard to get the church to change their minds, and if you do change something like this, it's bound to attract more attention.

Because it doesn't seem to touch anyone's interests at all, including Bernie himself.

Unwarranted influence is suspicious.

So this cannot be changed.

But if this thing doesn't change, something else has to change......

"When am I going to work?" Bernie then asked.

"You can rest for a few days and get to Hammer Island by the middle of this month."

Bishop Rhodes replied, handing Bernie a stamped scroll and several neatly bound parchments.

"The Processing and Production of Holy Water", "Illustrated Guide to Wild Extraordinary Plants", "Archives of the Hidden Events of the Diocese of Roland", "Distribution of Xenomorphs and Monsters in the Northern Kingdom of Pharos", ......

The names of these books are clearly beyond the boundaries of ordinary people, and they are the knowledge that a priest must possess in addition to his theological attainments and extraordinary abilities, and now that Bernie has become a full priest, he naturally needs to know about it.

And the scroll is written about the appointment of the resident priest of Bernie Hammer Island, and the corresponding benefits-

Ten bottles of Holy Water Zero and three bottles of Holy Water No. 1 every month.

A dwelling on the island, a personal butler, and a corresponding servant.

A priest-level supporting relic, with the right to supervise and use the transcendent items sealed in the island's church.

Command the Witcher Department on the island, responsible for coordinating the maintenance of law and order in the transcendent aspects of the island......

There are some scattered records, and there are obviously more pay and power than the current situation, but it is conceivable that the corresponding work is certainly not easy to do.

"A lot of Hammer Island is complicated, so if you don't feel like you can do it, then stay with it."

Rhodes clearly understands some of this.

"Everybody knows what's going on there, so even if you can't do it, you won't have any problems. And even if you make a result, you can't continue to be promoted in a short period of time. ”

Bernie's gaze detached from the scroll when he heard this, his eyes puzzled.

"Think about how long you've been a member of the Church, and there are already people who are exaggerated and dissatisfied with your priesthood."

Bishop Rhodes said: "Your promotion is almost at the top, and according to church tradition, you need to be a priest for a few years before you can be eligible for promotion again. ”

"Is there a specific time?"

"The shortest known record for serving as a priest is five years."

Rhodes replied, "It was also created by a god, who did a lot during his tenure and was finally promoted unusually. ”

Bernie nodded.

Five years sounds like a long time, but it's actually a very short time within the church.

"During this time, in addition to taking on the duties of a priest, you must also not forget to improve your transcendence."

Rhodes admonished: "Although there are no hard and fast rules in the church about the extraordinary strength of the clergy, there are generally traditions. There are very few clergy like you who become a priest in the first person, and normally the second person is required to be in charge, and there are also requirements for this. ”

"I'll keep an eye on it."

"Because you agree to hand in your self-created supernatural ability, when the cultivation of this ability is complete, the church will send someone to you to reproduce and record it."

Bishop Rhodes pondered the next path for Bernie.

"The contributions you can earn in this way will give you three skills and holy water for the second person. But taking it a step further to sublimate the holy water requires you to do something else. ”

"It seems a bit far."

Bernie blinked and said, "I haven't even used the first bottle of Ascension Holy Water." ”

"Indeed...... This kind of thing can't be rushed. ”

Rhodes said, patting Bernie on the shoulder, "Anyway, that's the end of the holy water matter. When you arrive at Hammer Island, if you have any problems, you can write to me. Don't be rash, some things are complicated, and we have more enemies than you think. ”

"Understood." Bernie nodded.

Rhodes tapped him on the shoulder again, then turned away, looking a little tired on his back.

It seems that the interrogation of the clergy who committed the crime during this period of time caused him to encounter a lot of unpleasant things.

Seeing the other man's back disappear from view, Bernie left the empty hall with a few books.

As when we came, the sky was still bright outside, but the circumstances facing the future were very different.

Walking back to Morse, Bernie muttered about what had just happened.

The move was sudden, but overall it wasn't a big deal.

Because Bernie thinks that no matter where he goes, he can make achievements quickly.

The difference is simply how this grade is defined.

Being in the church naturally acts according to the rules of the church.

So Hammer Island, which is full of filth, has a lot more "opportunities" than here in Neham.

As for the seniority issues that come with turning those opportunities into grades, Bernie doesn't care much about them.

The so-called traditions and rules are just protective railings that exist in order in peacetime.

When chaos strikes, what is this thin block?

With thoughts racing through his mind, Bernie looked in the direction of the sea.

Rhodes claimed that the shortest time to be a priest was five years.

He doesn't need five years.
