Chapter Twenty-Eight: Real Estate in Hand

Compared to the time John had imagined, the morning prayer of the Eternal Sun was not long, and the morning prayer ended when the priest took out the doctrine and read it, and all the believers and the priest finished saluting together.

John looked at the believers with smiles on their faces, and walked away in twos and threes with people he knew. When he passed by John, John could hear their conversation, it was nothing more than how much your family's goods were sold, my family's crops were growing well, but the warm happiness in the words could be felt even by John.

John had planned to wait until the believers were gone before asking someone, but John was too conspicuous compared to the people around him, and the Templars approached him halfway through.

"Hello. The Templar walked up to John, gave a knightly salute - a ritual gesture of etiquette for the Templars, and said, "Are you here to join the Church?"

John didn't know how to return the salute, so he had to bow slightly: "No, it's not like this, I'm here to receive the reward." "Bounty?" The Templar was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment, "By the way, is it a mission issued by our Templars? The reward is usually obtained at the place where the quest is accepted, and we will store the reward there when we distribute the quest, so we don't have to go out of our way to bring the Templar." "It seems that the Templars have taken John for an ordinary adventurer.

John shook his head, and pointed behind the knight, who was walking towards the vice-captain, and said, "He asked me to come to the cathedral to receive the reward." He said it was because he didn't have enough things to bring with me, so he asked me to come by myself. ”

The knight turned his head and saw the vice-captain, and immediately stood up and saluted: "Captain Hughes." ”

Vice-captain Hughes said to the paladin, "Go in first, I invited him." ”

The Templar listened, turned and saluted John, and walked away with his companions.

Vice Captain Hughes was enthusiastic: "You're here, you're coming, let's go meet the Bishop first, he has admired the hero who can solve the evil god cult and the possessed heroic spirit alone, and he wants to meet you." “

John didn't know what the bishop's status was in this denomination, but it certainly wasn't low in the light of the Deep Church. Would just killing a cultist and those monsters get the attention of such a big man? John didn't know. However, thinking that his bounty was still on the person in front of him, he agreed, and then asked casually: "I don't know how much the bounty is this time?" I plan to open a blacksmith shop in the city, and I don't know if the money is enough. ”

It was originally rude to ask the other party directly for the bounty, but John didn't know about this kind of thing, and Vice Captain Hughes had also discovered that John was actually not good at communicating with people, and when Vice Captain Hughes and Laika returned to the church to report on this mission, they learned from the bishop that John might be a believer in the ancient gods of the sun, so they were naturally more polite.

Vice Captain Hughes replied, "I don't know the exact amount, but it should be worth a lot." ”

When John saw that the man knew nothing, he stopped asking and followed him into a prayer room in the cathedral.

Vice Captain Hughes opened the door to the prayer room and told John to let John rest inside now and wait, and he would go to the bishop at once.

John walked into the prayer room and found it simple, a two-man statue, two chairs, and a table. John did not sit down and wait in the prayer room, but stood in front of the idol and looked at it carefully. This idol is not a single god, but a group of several gods. The most conspicuous of these is the sun god Il, who stands on a carriage and holds a scepter.

John looked at the idol group and noticed that somehow, his eyes were always drawn to Il when he looked at the idol group, and the other three gods next to him had no presence in front of Il's statue.

Just as he was thinking, John heard the sound of the door opening behind him, and turned to look. I saw an old woman in a white priest's uniform with gold trim walking in.

The old woman came over with a smile on her face, "Aha, our Sun Warrior, I've been eager to see you since I heard that you killed the cultists of the evil gods. John also greeted the old woman: "Hello. ”

"My name is Eleanor Parato, and I am the bishop of the Eternal Radiant Order. I've heard Hughes say that you killed the cult god and the three possessed Heroic Spirits alone, it's unimaginable. John spared his head.

Cardinal Eleanor looked at the man in front of him, remembering that when he first saw the wine glass, he was thinking about what kind of believers in the ancient gods of the sun were, but he didn't expect to find any signs of transcendence after meeting, and he looked like an ordinary person.

However, Bishop Eleanor kept his thoughts to the bottom of his heart, and said, "The cultist of the evil god that you killed should be a very beloved believer of Jamero, and he can summon Jamero's Heroic Spirit to possess him at a very small cost. Relying on this ability, he has evaded many pursuits, and each time he has been able to escape from the encirclement, we have organized several roundups against him, all of which have ended in failure. Not only that, this

Cultists of evil gods also wander around committing crimes in many places, in addition to our Nimitz Kingdom, they have also made sacrifices in many countries, and even used entire villages as sacrifices on several occasions. With that, Bishop Eleanor handed John a stack of scrolls in his hand. John took it in his hand and looked at it one by one, and found that it was all about the bounty of the cult god believer, the amount of the bounty was more or less, and the people who posted the bounty were also different, there were several lords in the Nimitz Kingdom, and there were also lords in neighboring countries with bounties, plus the royal family of the Nimitz Kingdom and the church mission of the Eternal Shining Sun Sect, the bounty of this evil god believer was piled up to nearly three thousand gold coins. Under the bounty of the cultists of the evil gods, there is also a mission to exterminate the bandits. Originally, those bandits were killed by the cultists, and John killed the cultists, so the prize fell on John again.

In this way, the bounty is quite substantial. John looked at the bounties and began to speculate about what kind of house he could buy. Before he could think of it, Bishop Eleanor took out three title deeds and handed them to John: "I heard Hughes say that you want to open a blacksmith shop, and a merchant is about to leave here, and we will ask us to consign his real estate, there is a small house with a garden, a restaurant, and a blacksmith's shop. He originally planned to sell it for 3,500 gold coins, but I saw that you needed it, so I decided on it for you first. You can take a look at the address above, and if you are satisfied, you can use this property as a reward, and if you don't like it, you can also settle it with gold coins. ”

John thanked Bishop Eleanor, took the title deed, looked at the location, and compared it with the map he wrote down when he was hanging out with Selena yesterday, and found that the locations of these three places were better, so he no longer considered the time-consuming and laborious search for housing, so he thanked Bishop Eleanor.
