Rubens was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered that this was Roddy's mount... After all, the last time the other party came to deliver the letter, he crushed the pigeon cage of the temple, and he lost a lot of money. Seeing www.biquge.info see him again, he quickly rushed out and used his magic to signal the duck, and successfully removed the two letters bound to it.

One letter is in Sally's handwriting, and the other is stamped with a wax seal by Bishop Benjamin.

Wondering why the two letters were together, he opened Sally's letter first, and the contents of it struck him like lightning.

His hands, which had just calmed down, trembled, and he picked up Benjamin's letter, but after reading three or four sentences, sweat came out of his forehead...

After staying in the "Temple" for a long time, Rubens was actually infected by the comfortable atmosphere here, and his heart had lost his former vigilance - it was not full of crises like when he went to Evta, and his life was stable all day, and there was hardly any threat that could make the "Temple" take seriously.

"Pit Viper Cross" has become a distant term for him, and he has not heard any action from the other party for more than a year, and although he is still reminded at the meeting today, Rubens himself is not quite convinced that the other party can really have any effect on the "temple".

After all, this is the base camp of the "Rosicrucifix"... With so many temple guards, believers, and cardinals, how bold must the other side be to attack this place?

The content of the credible document ruthlessly shattered this idea. When Rubens carefully counted the strength of the troops in the city, he felt that his entire back was soaked in cold sweat...

The two letters were not many words, but Rubens read them three or four times, not to remember the information, but to face the fact that he did not want to face it at all.

"How... Benjamin thinks so too..."

Faced with a sudden dilemma, he suddenly remembered the simple idea of "being loyal to the Rosicruc" when he was only a bishop.

Now I seem to have forgotten what a "rosicrucifer" is, because all I can see is a clash between cardinals.

I haven't spoken the words of preaching for the Lord and saving more believers for too long...

What is salvation?

Rubens suddenly remembered what Mograine, who was about to fall, said to himself when he was standing here-

"You're going to end up being the one you hate. ”

Unexpectedly... Finally, it came to this day.

The letter paper was scorched by the sudden light and turned into scattered ashes in an instant. Rubens took a deep breath, and all that echoed in his mind were the words of the cardinals' suppression and mockery...

"Is it death, or is it rebirth?"

He muttered under his breath, and the figure disappeared at the end of the hallway.

July 1.

The Count of Mirno's march was not fast, for the "baggage" had indeed become a more difficult problem than expected.

One of the main reasons for this was the newspapers that spread throughout the kingdom of Karen: the nobles who learned that they might be "requisitioned" were not willing to lend their food for the winter to the army, so many nobles simply took their families to hide elsewhere with their food, and when Mirno's convoy went to look over, they found that the territory was empty except for the farmers, and there was no food at all.

Even if the "Pit Viper Cross" had made enough preparations beforehand, the speed of travel would have been delayed again and again. There were 10,000 combat troops, and more than 6,000 auxiliaries to support such a large army, again because there were not many cavalry. A total of 16,000 people needed an astonishing amount of food for their journey, but because they had not been able to collect much food since entering the temple territory, everyone noticed that the quality of their daily meals was plummeting.

At this point, the party arrived at a fork in the road called "Gerchi" and camped near the walls of the temple, which was still about twenty kilometers from the walls of the temple. According to the plan, the team will march directly west tomorrow when they pull out the camp, preparing to enter the area where Evta is located. However, at this time, Roddy, who was sitting in the camp, looked at the city hidden in the night, and didn't know what to think.

"These goddamn gods!"

The chatter around the campfire never stopped, and a group of knights complained about the terrible dinner of the day—the hard, stone-like bread was so hard to swallow that Roddy gave up after taking a bite because he felt like he was chewing on a piece of wood.

"Damn, I suspect this kind of bread will curl up when you cut it! God knows how many years these things have been there, I guess they'll have to have them in three or four years!"

Zach held the largest piece of bread in his hand, and his big fan-like hand "banged" twice on the hard surface, but it couldn't shake off even the bread crumbs, but instead a few weevils collapsed.

"What the hell... What the hell is the Rosicrucian trying to do? They might as well claim that they belong to Evta!"

"Those nobles have gone into hiding with food in advance, it must be the ghost of the Rosicrucifix... These blood-sucking sticks!"

Roddy turned his head and noticed that the direction of the talk around him about the "Rosicrucian" seemed to have quietly changed, it was not that he had not heard their complaints about the "Rosicrucian" before, but these people were not really believers, and they had not said a few words along the way. But after a few days of starvation, the complaints against the "Rosicrucifer" around him became deeper and deeper - he was sure that this was the result of artificial guidance, because the knights were generally uneducated, and the cost of inciting illiteracy was too low, not to mention that the famine was also a fact, as long as the pot was pinned on the "Rosicrucian", it was not difficult to make the "Holy Army" hate.

The scolding and scolding around him did not stop, but Luo Di did not continue to remain silent, he is now considered to have integrated into the small circle in the camp, but because of his young age and weak strength, these pretentious knights around him all ignore him - except for the boring competition with a short sword every day, what Roddy hears the most is the "guidance" of those knights to him.

"Your kid is holding the sword in the wrong posture, do you really know what to do when you go to the battlefield?"

"Hey, I'll teach you a trick and a half, do you want to learn it? I learned it from the Grand Knight of Nilko to make sure you survive on the battlefield - but such a subtle swordsmanship will cost you ten silver coins!"

The Knight of Nilko is also considered a strong existence, Roddy has the impression that this guy hung up in the battle of 596, when he advanced to level 41, and now...

"Didn't you say Nilco? wasn't he killed by the orc army?"

"That's why his swordsmanship has become a master!How about it, young man, do you want to learn it?" )
