Volume 1 [Border Clouds] Chapter 88 The Bloody Monastery (2)

"Ryan, if I remember correctly, your ideal... Is it possible to fight on the battlefield for your family one day? You may feel a little disdainful to hear a story from the mouth of a bard, but I think you also have a little yearning in your heart, right? ”

Sally, who had been the center of attention in the past, would never take the initiative to speak, but because of the triple reason of being a "candidate priest", her beautiful face, and the rapid progress of her spiritual practice, no one would ignore her serious words. So when Sally came out to play the round, the atmosphere at the table eased almost immediately.

Obviously, in the eyes of these young people, although Sally is silent most of the time, her words carry more weight than anyone else, but even so, Sally has never put any pressure on Chrissy and the others - Chrissy, Ellie Jie and the others all showed a little relaxed look when they heard her speak, because they knew that with Sally's words, Ryan and Booker would definitely not be able to quarrel.

"I- forget it... If you don't want to hear it, I won't say it. ”

They are not unreasonable bastards, and being able to come to the monastery shows that they are good young men who are "sensible", and at this time, there are beautiful women who have broken the siege, they have face, and there are steps, Booker was the first to express his compromise, sighed, and lowered his head and nibbled on bread.

And Ryan was also hit by Sally as the "key point", because he was indeed full of yearning for "war" and "blood" as Sally said.

On weekdays, he always likes to talk to others about "knights" and "war", and to put it bluntly, he quarreled with Booker, but also because the other party has attracted too many eyeballs in recent days and is a little unhappy, as for the desire to really do it, there is actually no desire. What's more... At this point, if he denied Sally's words, he would have slapped himself in the face. Thinking of this, Ryan couldn't help but feel a little depressed, but he still whispered in his mouth: "Those stories are too fake, the real war is not like this at all..."

His spearhead turned to the "bard" instead of Booker, apparently in disguise.

Booker on the side chewed a few mouthfuls of bread and saw Ryan close his mouth, so he turned his face and nodded to Sally in thanks, and then said, "Just after the prayer is over, we are going to the market... Uh- look, Sally, will you come with us? After all, you haven't been out in a long time. ”

Knowing that Ryan didn't want to hear the word "bard", Booker squeezed his eyes and motioned, "Let's go listen to the story of the bard, together?" ”

"Xie Lu Xie, still can't." Sally shook her head, but looking at the sky outside the window, she remembered that her subordinates would come to the church to meet her today, and felt that it was not appropriate for her to make such a direct decision, so she changed her words again: "... But when the time comes, I'll take you to the door of the church. ”

"That couldn't be better." Chrissy took over with a smile, and the unpleasant atmosphere caused by the quarrel immediately dissipated, and the conversation began to talk about which shop in the market area had better goods.

Not far away, Bishop Benjamin, who had come to the table with a letter in his hand, sat down in front of the four priests, and after whispering a pre-dinner prayer, he picked up the bread for breakfast and asked, "What?" What was the funny thing that just happened? ”

After listening to the explanations of several priests, the bishop, who is always very tolerant of young monks and nuns, smiled and commented: "Lane's family has always admired force, and when he came to the convent, many people in the family complained about it, and he estimated that the pressure was not small. ”

"After all, it's a hurtful divine art, and boys will always be interested in this, but speaking of which, Sally's talent in the 'buff' divine technique is really rare in recent years."

The priests talked about the progress of these young people's practice, and the bishop was very pleased with the talent and determination of these children, but he shook his head and sighed, "Although I see that they are making rapid progress, to be honest, I really don't want them to get involved in the war..."

He shook the letter in his hand, and the priest named Ethan next to him asked, "Bishop, this letter?" ”

"Sent by Bishop Rubens, he has already set out from the 'Rosary Temple', and should arrive here in half a month." On weekdays, Benjamin always smiles, giving people a warm and warm feeling, but when he mentioned the name of the Exgesor to the priest, he looked solemn and said in a low voice: "But this journey is not expected to be peaceful, the 'Viper Cross' has released the news that it is going to kill the Exgelimit, this group of heretics always do what they say, this trip of Lord Rubens...... It could be dangerous. ”

"Do you want the temple guards to prepare for the time to meet and protect the Overlord?"

"That's how it should be, I was about to tell you this, the church guards on duty today may need to go to the arsenal south of the city to pack new weapons, so only the two in front of the door are left." Benjamin put the letter aside, arranging the affairs of the monastery for the day as usual, "Ethan, you go and visit Count Tata and thank him for the gold and food he donated, Mulder, you go and ......"

This is the scene that happens every day in the abbey clocks, Benjamin arranged for the priests to be busy, and then came to Sally and the others to say hello, casually test the teachings, if these young people could not answer, he was not angry, talked and laughed, and then patiently explained.

Easy-going bishops, studious monks and nuns, tranquil monasteries... That's what Sally goes through every day.

…………

As the clock passed, the sun rose, and the streets became more populous, as did the devout believers who came to the church to pray.

The structure of the monastery was simple - next to the street was a cathedral that could accommodate hundreds of people, about twenty meters high, and at the back of the church were the houses where the monastic clergy were housed, another for the Templar soldiers, and a small kitchen with firewood next to it.

It wasn't a regular Sunday, and not many people came to pray. Early in the morning, the temple guards inside the church went en masse to the arsenal on the orders of Bishop Benjamin, leaving only two saber guards on duty. If you divide the strength, these two guards are the lowest level of the "Rosicrucius" army level of the Temple Guards - just by the player's standards, their level is not low, the base level is 15, although they are not advanced, it can be said that they are also relatively strong warriors in Houllier City.

The view from the front of the church was not very open, and two guards occasionally patrolled around the temple, but since no one had ever tried to storm the place, they had long since lost their vigilance due to the repetition of daily work. The gaze under the helmet was always lazy and tired, yawning from time to time, and not paying much attention to anything unusual in the street.

After all, in the entire territory of Ivotah, there are very few people who dare to fight against the "Rosace Cross". Because of this, they couldn't pay attention to the suspicious figures who had been walking around the corner lately...

A man dressed in plain robes, who looked like a believer, sat in the shadow of a three-story house in front of the monastery, his slightly wide robe fluttering in the breeze, and he was no different from the other believers, except for a small package on his back.

Not far away, a fancy guy was playing with a vielle in his hand, and whenever a passer-by threw a coin into the hat in front of him, he complimented him with a smile on his face, and then put it in the black package in the corner of the wall behind him with a happy face.

On the other side of the street, a fat man dressed as a traveling merchant was selling trinkets to pedestrians, and some children surrounded him, and the fat man smiled and took out some snacks and distributed them to these children.

These three people have been here for more than a week, and it is not really an anomaly to say that they are "anomalous", because it is normal for bards, merchants, and believers to appear in front of the monastery, but if you deliberately pay attention to these three people, you will find that the three of them are always not far apart, but form a triangle... The entrance to the church was invisibly enclosed.

Time passed, and after the bell rang in the distance, it was about ten o'clock in the morning.

When Roddy appeared on the street in front of the church, his image had been completely restored to his most combative state - the unique shape of the "Ranger Suit" attracted a lot of attention, but the common people often did not have much interest in "adventurers", and in this era, the xenophobia of "strangers" was common, so Roddy was also happy to be idle and had a lot less unnecessary trouble.

Roddy didn't dare to rush in directly to find Sally by name, because Francis's eyes would doubt his identity, so he chose to directly make the original "Priest Nilda's Fall" the second step, and went to Benjamin to hand in the task with the image and identity of a former adventurer, and found a chance to meet Sally by the way.

This kind of plan is a lot of success, so Luo Di was in a good mood all the way, and at this time he came to the monastery humming the tune of the devil entering the village.

The guards standing in front of him had already seen him, and Roddy reached out and took out the letter needed for the second step of the "The Fall of Priest Nilda" mission, and was thinking about how to speak, but when his eyes swept over the worshippers in front of the church, his steps suddenly slowed down.

The tune of "The Devil Enters the Village" became "Zhu Bajie Carries His Daughter-in-law", Luo Di continued to hum a messy tune, and then his footsteps stopped completely, and when his eyes turned to the left and right, his brows were furrowed deeper and deeper.

Because he entered a "high-level area" like Hollier City, Luo Di also opened the "Surrounding Character Status Bar" on weekdays, so that although the specific level, name or attribute of the strangers around him will not be displayed, but the level gap between the other party and himself can be vaguely displayed - if the level is low, the other party's "title" will be displayed in green; the one with a similar level is yellow; If the level is within three levels higher than oneself, orange will be displayed... The higher the level, the redder the color will be, and when the strength gap reaches a certain point, black will be displayed.

Most of the civilians in Hollier are of a lower rank than themselves, only a few are yellow, and the guards not far in front of them are bright red - this is normal, but it is not normal... He saw that the bard not far away and the fat merchant on the other side were both reddish, and the "believer" sitting in the corner of the wall was actually red and purple!

In addition to that, there are two inconspicuous guys who are yellow of similar rank to themselves.

Roddy narrowed his eyes, instinctively sensing that something was wrong.
