25 Bazel
On the other side, in a building across the sea from Nyam, a sacred ritual was taking place.
The ceremony took place in an empty and silent chapel.
Overlooking a towering statue of an angel, a brown-haired middle-aged man knelt there, while another old man dressed in a bishop's white robe, wearing a long crown and a holy belt on his head, raised his hand and stroked the middle-aged head, still muttering some religious terms.
And along with his words, patches of pale golden light swayed from his hands from time to time.
The glow seemed to be very warm, and the tired expression on the brown-haired middle-aged face on the kneeling ground was slowed down.
In the end, when the brown-haired middle-aged person's mental outlook was completely no different from that of a normal person, this "exorcism" ritual basically ended.
"Go to bed tonight, and you'll probably never dream about strange things again."
The old bishop said, and motioned for the brown-haired middle-aged man to stand up.
"But you should also reflect on it, Bazel, what have you been doing lately? This kind of dream involving the gods is not something that can be inflicted by any random being, and it is more like a warning. ”
When he said this, his tone was very serious, even a little dignified.
"What did you do......"
The brown-haired middle-aged man named Bazel was a little hesitant when he heard this.
He did a lot of things during this time, intercepted and killed an abbot, and then was inexplicably caught by a baron and made a big joke in bed.
But neither seems likely to involve some kind of powerful being.
The abbot had some sneaky little secrets, but when the killer went to intercept him, he met no decent resistance, and it was clear that his secrets belonged to the treasure in the peasant's arms, and he thought them precious.
And the latter can't have anything to do with a powerful existence, the baronial family has been barons for several generations, but there has never been any great characters......
Thinking about it, Bazel suddenly remembered a male prostitute he had raised in the station.
If I remember correctly, the other party seems to be from an ancient family that was once glorious, but now it is broken?
When he thought about it, his suspicion could not help but rise, because when he had a dream of God, he had slept in the same bed with the male prostitute......
Bazel's face was a little serious, and he began to wonder what he was going to do with that guy when he got back.
But before he could think about it, the old bishop on the side spoke again.
"I'm still saying that, it's not wise for you to come here now."
"I'm so scared, father."
Bazel whispered, "You can't imagine what that dream would look like, how great the splendor of the gods is, so great that I can't even describe it......"
"God is great, but only if you meet the true God."
As he spoke, the old bishop glanced at the statue of an angel in the depths of the church, "Where is the true God?" In the kingdom of heaven as we know it? Or have you long since left this world? I guess that's a question that only the Holy Spirit can answer. ”
Bazel smiled weakly when he heard this, and didn't dare to take it.
Because of the dream of the gods during this time, he is now more taboo about this topic.
So he turned to ask, "How is it in Ibiza, father?" ”
"The above is looking through the materials in the White Pagoda to identify the age and origin of the birth of the sealed holy coffin."
"It is a sealed place that has not been recorded in the slightest, but the style of the arrangement is clearly related to the Church, but it is ...... The people above prayed for revelation, but Heaven did not respond to it. ”
"What about the devil who broke the seal?" Bazel couldn't help but ask curiously, "Did you find a clue?" What exactly is it? ”
"Sometimes it's not good to know more, Bazel."
The old bishop gave him a wary look.
He obviously knew something, but he didn't want to talk about it.
So the conversation shifted to something else.
"After the recent turmoil has passed, you need to ask the people below to expedite a batch of goods."
"Expedited?"
"Someone's hungry again."
"This ...... He's just too greedy, isn't he!? ”
"Believe me, son, the more greedy he is, the better it will be for us."
"But he promised to let Rhodes get out, but he hasn't fulfilled his promise so far!"
"It seems to involve some changes at a higher level."
The old bishop frowned when he heard this, "According to the man, we are actually close to success, but I don't know why, it seems that there are other people on it who support Rhodes......"
He obviously had doubts about this, but then he laughed, "But it doesn't matter, as long as the current situation continues, Rhodes will leave sooner or later, and it won't be too long." ”
Bazel didn't seem to understand this, but he didn't ask much, but changed the conversation, "How is my brother doing in Newcastle?" ”
"It's not the same as it used to be."
The old bishop's face immediately became gloomy when he heard this, "If it weren't for the fact that there were no other trustworthy people, I wouldn't let him preside over the situation in Newcastle anymore, where would that kid be like my species?" ”
"He's going to grow up, father, maybe it won't be long."
"It doesn't matter."
The old bishop snorted coldly and waved his hand, "When I become a bishop, we won't need to be so careful, and if he doesn't fight anymore, I'll send him to the Broken Isles." ”
With that, he changed the subject: "On the way back, you can stop by the mines, I need to speed up the digging there, and tell them that I am impatient to wait." ”
Bazel nodded, and after discussing some more things with his father, he stepped back and left.
The old bishop turned and walked out of the chapel, his face groaning, as if he were thinking about something.
But when he walked into an open-air corridor, he suddenly noticed that something was watching him.
However, when he looked sideways, he saw only a black shadow speeding through the sky.
"A shadow raven coming this way?"
The old bishop narrowed his eyes because of this, "It's really a lot of courage......
……
On the other side, Bazel, who had left the church, quietly rode a carriage towards the island's harbor location, and then prepared to reach Neuham through the harbor, and then drive deeper inland.
After meeting his father, dispelling and learning about his recent divine dreams, Bazel's purpose for this trip has been accomplished, and he naturally needs to hurry back to the station.
After all, he's still a priest anyway.
But when he came to Neuham that night by ship along the harbor, he heard the news that made him very stunned.
"The Count of Cambore almost died?"
"Yes."
The butler who came to report said in a low voice: "And our spies have come to report, and he is becoming very abnormal now." ”
"How abnormal is it?"
"After waking up, he did not lie in bed to recuperate, but ran around the manor, and answered everything when others asked him, including some secret things......"
"Including some secret things?" Bazel was stunned, "Did you mention us?" ”
"Not yet, but it is said that he even told others about the scandal of peeking at the widow's bath when he was a child......"
"Is he crazy? Or stupid? ”
Bazel felt incredible, "This kind of thing can hurt your brain?" ”
The butler was obviously unable to answer the question, so he could only respond with a few dry laughs.
Bazel then pondered for a moment, and finally said decisively: "Didn't the heir of the House of Cambore have a premonition that his father would stumble and fall to his death?" Inform him that his hunch needs to be advanced! ”
"Wouldn't that be too obvious?"
The butler who reported the news was stunned when he heard this, "After all, Count Camboray was just poisoned and almost died. ”
"It's more appropriate, and it explains that the old bastard didn't fully recover, and the injury recurred, causing him to stumble...... There are loopholes, but it's better than letting that old thing go crazy. ”
Bazel rubbed his eyebrows and said with some headaches: "The biggest risk comes from Rhodes, but Rhodes is busy with things on Ibiza's side right now and has no time to pay attention to anything else." ”
……
"Besides, he doesn't know what's going on, so he won't suspect us no matter how he thinks about it."
