Chapter 121: Hidden in the World

Pressing Lin Xian's doubts first, he didn't mention it, and saw Andrew's murderous hand weapon walking towards the rest of the attackers. The pupils glowed with a bloodthirsty red light because of the bloodshot, and the expression on his face was even more hideous, as if he wanted to kill them all!

"What do you want to do?" Paris Liss's shout woke up Lin Xian in deep thought. He looked up and saw Paris standing in front of Andrew.

Andrew was so angry that he exclaimed, "These bastards killed five of my brothers, and six were seriously wounded. Two of them don't know if they'll survive yet! I'm going to kill all these bastards......"

"These people are just doing what they are told! And now that resistance has been abandoned, do you want to slaughter the captives? It was clear that Paris disagreed with Andrew's approach and loudly stopped her.

"It's easy for you to say, it's not your people who die, of course you don't care! I don't want to get into a conflict with you, you'd better get out of the way! ”

Lin Xian hurriedly walked over and opened his mouth to persuade: "Killing them can't bring people back to life. It's better to interrogate them well and let them exchange intelligence for their lives, there are too many suspicious points in this attack! ”

"Andrew, what Mr. Lin said makes a lot of sense, don't be too impulsive!"

Everyone turned their heads to see that it was Mrs. Sandra standing on the side of the passenger ship looking this way. She heard the shouts of murder outside in the cabin, and her heart was always uneasy. When it was finally quiet again, I couldn't wait to open the hatch and come out to see what was going on.

Lady Sandra looked at the deck of the cargo ship opposite, littered with corpses and bloody stumps. There were also several familiar faces among them, and Tel, who had been killed too violently because of the pain of losing his wife, was also lying there quietly. These are all elderly people who have served in their own homes for several years, and a trace of sadness flashes in their eyes!

But she was determined to stop Andrew's attempt to kill all the captives. Lin Xian, who contributed the most to this battle, and his lord's wife did not agree to kill the prisoner, so Andrew let out an angry roar and stood aside indignantly!

Lin Xian walked up to the panicked captive and said with a sinking face: "I won't kill you, but only if you answer my questions truthfully!" My first question is, why did your Captain Papan become like this? ”

When the captives heard that they would not be killed, the horror on their faces subsided slightly, but still no one took the initiative to answer Lin Xian's question.

Five minutes later, when the impatience in Lin Xian's eyes became heavier and heavier, and the expression on his face gradually showed a trace of anger. An older man, who seemed to be the captain of the archers, spoke, "We don't know why Captain Papin is like this. He had gone with Count Mayo to the temple of Farah the other day, and that had become the case when he returned. Because his voice has become completely different, if you hadn't taken off his helmet today, we wouldn't even know he was Captain Papan! ”

"Temple? How could this have anything to do with the temple? Tell me, what does Count Mayo have to do with the Temple? Paris's face was full of shock, and she asked eagerly and loudly.

Seeing Paris's eager expression, Lin Xian was secretly a little surprised, and muttered in his heart: "She seems to know the inside story of some temples, this organization is too mysterious......"

The captain of the archer muttered, "We don't know anything about Count Mayo's relationship with the temple, except that he often secretly meets with Dagoris to sacrifice ......"

It was found that these captives had no access to any valuable information at all, and they were almost unaware of it. Lin Xian shook his head helplessly and said, "Then you don't know how Pa Pan became a temple warrior?" ”

"Templar? I see...... No wonder Papan has changed so much! But why would the temple care so much about a tiny city of Widton? Even the Templars have been dispatched......" Paris muttered to herself with a bewildered look on her face.

"Do you know ...... temple" Lin Xian's question was interrupted by a glance from Paris, obviously she didn't want to discuss the temple in front of everyone.

"Lady Sandra, what do you think these captives should do?" Paris's question was clearly diverting the subject.

Lady Sandra thought for a moment, then spoke: "Put them in the bilge of the passenger ship and take them to Nasri together, maybe you can testify against Count Mayo!" ”

That being said, she also knows very well that this is just wishful thinking! Relying only on these captives to testify against a high-ranking nobleman, it is impossible to succeed without conclusive evidence! And Count Mayo is even more cunning, I am afraid to say: "These people are deserters, and they have planned to kill and rob money by themselves!" "It's all gone!

The men cleaned up the traces of the fighting on the ship, and the captives were locked in the bilge. So after the captain took the helm and lifted the anchor, the passenger ship went down the river again, and the cargo ship had to be abandoned......

After returning to the guest room on the ship, Lin Xian couldn't wait to ask Paris, "What kind of organization is the temple?" Why is it so mysterious? ”

"The temple can be said to be the spokesperson of the Aesir gods in the world, and after Ragnarok it is very low-key. I'm afraid people have forgotten how powerful this organization used to be......" Paris said faintly.

It turns out that in the era when the Aesir gods ruled everything, their most devout followers established the temple as an organization! From time to time, the Aesirs also sent oracles to the temple for the worshippers in the temple to complete the trials and tasks they had handed over.

After countless years, the power of the temple became incomparably greater, and it became the spokesperson of the gods in the world, and even exercised power in place of the gods on the earth!

At that time, the high priest of the temple was the most powerful man on earth besides the gods, and he could even appoint and dismiss kings of various countries at will! The king of every nation must be respectful to the temple, or risk being deposed! A small sacrifice in any temple can be above the secular aristocracy! The common people must also believe in the Aesir gods, or they will be beaten into heresy!

But that all changed after Ragnarok! Although the Aesir protoss won the victory of Ragnarok, the main god Odin was killed in battle, and the remaining gods also entered eternal sleep! The temple has never received an oracle again, and powerful magic has never appeared in the world again!

And the battle of Ragnarok has caused great damage to the world, and the continent has also entered the thousand-year-long Warring States Period, and the countries have begun to fight endlessly! The Temple Organization has also suffered great losses, losing control of the secular kingdoms, and even facing destruction for a time!

But the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, on the surface it is already a temple of a purely religious organization, but secretly it still hides a huge strength!

After the gods enter eternal sleep, the temple priests need to communicate with the gods to borrow divine power, so that the powerful divine magic that can be cast can no longer be used!

So in the Warring States Period, some countries coveted the huge wealth accumulated by the temple for countless years, and once united to attack the temple!

In the final moments of the temple's destruction, an army of small numbers but extremely strong individuals suddenly appeared in the world, and this army was called the [Knights of the Templar]!

This army, led by twelve temple warriors, crushed the armies of these countries in one fell swoop, and these countries were quickly disintegrated and annexed, which also indirectly led to the end of the Warring States period!

After the crisis was resolved, the Knights Templar once again hid in the dark, and the Templar never took the initiative to intervene in the affairs of the secular state.

In addition to receiving prayers and offerings from people, the shrine also does charity such as almsgiving, healing and adopting orphans, just like an ordinary religious organization exists in the world! But no one dares to underestimate this organization anymore......
