Chapter 12: Mixed Blessings

The Apostles took Duck to the Squad's lounge.

Led by Vanessa and FernΓ‘ndez, the surprise attack was a success. An heretical den for "evil research" was eliminated, and a batch of intact alchemy equipment was seized.

Fernandez went on a killing spree, stabbing six enemies, and the others, except for three living mouths, were slaughtered by the Apostles. A total of twenty-two people were killed.

Two members of the Apostle team died.

Vanessa didn't kill anyone, and gave up all the credit.

Her spirit was a little sluggish, and she stared at Duck tiredly: "Mr. Duck, we suspect that the heretics have a huge plan, and we would like to ask you to analyze the seized equipment and see if you can find any clues." ”

Duck said lightly, "Congratulations to the two of you for such a brilliant victory. However, looking for clues or something, I'm not a policeman, nor a detective in the court, I'm just a small workshop owner, I'm afraid it's difficult to take on a heavy responsibility. ”

Vanessa didn't say anything, and Fernandez, who was drinking black tea slowly, said: "Let me tell you the truth, we are acting independently this time, and we do not have the support of our superiors and allies. ”

"Why?"

"Because I suspect that there are high-ranking members of heresy among superiors and allies. Moreover, during this raid, I discovered that some heretics were actually related to the Holy Cult, and some of them were even able to heal their allies with healing spells. ”

Duck's eyebrows raised slightly, "What, Fallen Priest?"

Fernandez gently lowered the teacup: "I know what you want to say, young man. It's just a healing spell, nothing special. The wild people of the southern jungle will also use totem poles to restore themselves, but can you say that they are followers of the Holy Religion? Rats have their own rat holes, and evil gods and evil believers certainly have their own mana. But none of this is important, the important thing is that now that two people have died in the apostle team, there are two vacancies, and I solemnly invite you, me and you, to join together. How?"

"I refuse. I just want to live a stable life and make a little money by the way. If you can't have both, it's okay not to get rich. ”

"Young man, I don't want to intimidate you, but you really don't have a choice in this matter. Heresy is on the move, and if they succeed, will you be able to live a peaceful life if they know alchemy, and have killed important members of their ranks?"

"Then I'll be blunt, I can work with Captain Vanessa, but I don't want to work with you. ”

"Oh, why? Because I'm so cruel?"

"No, because you're too extreme, and extreme people are stupid and kill their teammates. ”

Fernandez looked up to the sky and laughed, and when he finished laughing, he pointed at Duck with one hand: "You are the first person who dares to talk to me like that." ”

"It's a great honor. So, my position must have been accurately conveyed to you?"

Fernandez glared at him viciously: "Boy, dare to say that I am a burden?"

"It's better for the old man to sit in the rear, charge into battle or something, we clumsy young people will drag you down. ”

"If you dare to say that, you will be left without hands and feet immediately!"

"Then try it, the hero of the brainless pig who dragged two team members to death!"

"Alright, two!" Vanessa said tiredly, separating the two of them, "Mr. Dark, we are not the arrest team of the Central Church, we don't get much support, and sometimes the investigation report is typed, and we can't wait for a month to get a reply. The things of the past few days, you have also seen, if you count on the above......"

"But I'm just a civilian who keeps to himself. ”

"Maybe your words can save our whole team, if, if you can also go this time, we have strong technical support, maybe, maybe those two brothers ......"

Her eyes were red.

Duck was silent.

Fernandez's voice was also low: "In this regard, it is indeed excessive. Times are different, and acting is still the same old routine of slow and numbness, no wonder there are more and more heresies. Smelly boy, right now, there are three more people lying in the back. ”

Duck frowned, "Did the priests of the Templar all go on vacation?"

"Follow the procedure. The higher-ups approved the dispatch - the mission - the aftermath, but our actions were not approved, and of course we were responsible for the casualties in the process. Pastors don't dare to take responsibility for healing. ”

Duck sat quietly for a minute, then slowly shook his head, "I'm sorry, I'm ......"

Vanessa's head hung low, and she squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth, "Get out!"

FernΓ‘ndez walked towards the door: "Young man, if you want to change your fate, you must have the consciousness of playing with your life. Either leave the field and continue to live your frightened days, or, play big and fight a shop!"

A stain of bright red blood three fingers wide slowly flowed from behind him.

Duck was surprised, "Hey, you're hurt. ”

"Nothing, the bandages are open. Just tie it up. ”

"Just dragging on?"

"The three serious injuries have not been treated, and my minor injuries have been treated first, how can there be such a reason?"

Ducklen froze, looking fixedly at the paranoid, stubborn, and vicious old pervert in front of him.

"There's really nothing I can do about it, but my wife may have a solution. ”

"Doctor?"

Duck shook his head.

Vanessa's eyes lit up suddenly: "A priest who can heal?"

"How can a priest get married?" Darker smiled wryly and continued to stare at Fernandez, "I just want to know if there is one thing that will cure others and cause trouble for myself?"

"If anyone dares to make a fuss about this kind of thing, I will never agree to it. ”

Darker smiled lightly: "There are too many things you don't agree to, and it doesn't workβ€”I can ask her to help, but I have one condition." ”

Say. ”

"Give me a seat in the apostles. I'm going to fight for a big one. ”

Vanessa looked up suddenly, "Really?"

"Really," Duck said to Vanessa, pointing to Fernandes' nose, "and besides, the official must be older than him!"

Fernandez snorted coldly and went indignantly.

Later that day, Isabella healed the wounded of the Apostles and found Dark.

"Ah, Dak, what do you think, let me heal them, and don't use the spells of the Cult of the Light, I have to use the totem pole of the Noziks. ”

"The treatment works quickly, but the mana consumption is also high after one-on-one treatment. Totem pole is a range of healing, labor-saving. ”

"No, no, I mean, the Noziks are heretics. Now I'm one step closer to heresy. ”

"Instead of waiting for Fernandez to do something to us, let's take the initiative and let him know what we want him to know. In fact, he suffered a lot from yesterday's actions, and now his mind is full of revenge. There's no time to compete with us, and when this heresy is cleaned up, he tastes the sweetness, so he can only acquiesce. ”

Isabella shook her head: "I don't think such a paranoid old man can accept this kind of change. ”

"Nothing is constant. Do you think I have only one way? You know, tempting an upright old priest to fall is the supreme glory of heresy!"
