047 Lianshui City, Church, Adopted Daughter
From the military driver of the steam locomotive, Li Xiang learned that the Feng family was backed by several big families, and the military department would not pay special attention to a small numbered city like City 0266, and the military personnel assigned to this kind of place were generally more old-aged, so the authority was basically in the hands of the family and the upper family.
However, the commander-in-chief of the round-faced fat man who had recently landed this time was not willing to become a vassal of the family, and had been seeking a way to get rid of it, and the Feng family was a breakthrough he identified.
There is only one upper-class family in Lianshui City, such as the Feng family, and it can be said that this town, which is the size of an ordinary county town in the previous life, is their family's back garden.
The military headquarters of Lianshui City are all members of the Feng family, and it is very difficult for outside forces to infiltrate.
"This is basically the case in small places, are the two adults going to get off the bus at the Holy Clothing Church?" This driver is not stupid, he can make the commander-in-chief nod his head, I'm afraid those big families can't afford to provoke him, of course he knows what to say.
"Trouble. Li Xiang nodded.
The steam locomotive was parked in front of a somewhat dilapidated church. Lianshui City is somewhat similar to the original ghost town, the gap between the prosperous and poor areas is huge, this side is an area inhabited by ordinary civilians, the buildings are very dilapidated, and the infrastructure is also very average.
On the other side, the place where several super buildings stand is extremely prosperous, and you can see many aristocratic young masters and young ladies in luxurious clothes walking through it, which is completely different from this area.
"Ah, the erosive breath of capitalism. Li Xiang and Heatheria got out of the car, and the driver parked the car in the distance and sent a message to the round-faced fat man.
The Holy Dress Church often gives porridge, heals the sick, and prays on Saturdays and Sundays, and has a lot of fame in this area, and many civilians are devout members of the church.
In their eyes, instead of worshipping the high White King, it is better to believe in the Holy Dress Church and be a believer.
At least there is a basic guarantee here, and there is a human touch.
Towards evening, the men and women who had finished praying came out of the church to say goodbye to a kind-faced old priest who whispered a few words about it as they passed by with the word "demolished" in bright red on the right side of the church.
"Alas, Father Claude is so good, why does he owe so much money to the Feng family? Even the church will be demolished and sold, and we will have no place to pray in the future. ”
"Shhhh ”
There were not many voices, but after the five senses were strengthened, Li Xiang could hear it very clearly.
"Hello, Father Claude. Li Xiang stepped forward, he had a moon kite badge on his clothes, and those civilians only thought that their sister and brother were dressed extraordinarily, like nobles from the opposite side, and they didn't dare to provoke easily, but Claude obviously narrowed his pupils after seeing his badge, and quietly accelerated the evacuation of the church personnel.
"Hello, honorable apprentice magician, is there anything I can do for you?" said Father Claude saluted respectfully, but a fine line of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Moon Kite Badge!
That's a badge that can only be worn by Level 1 Magic Apprentices certified by the Magic Association!
The head of the Holy Costume Church walked out of here, and is a real level 1 player, she has established a lot of branches of the Holy Costume Church in various places, and because of her existence, the Holy Costume Church can continue, but eighteen years ago, there was a huge turmoil, the head of the Guild seemed to die in the battle, and the Holy Costume Church has been defeated, and now, he has tried his best to only cultivate one Xue Ni, hoping that she can graduate from a good player college and support this church by herself.
For Xue Ni, he hoped that she would become a Level 1 magic apprentice before she graduated, which was already an almost extravagant hope.
In this kind of place, a level 1 magic apprentice suddenly appeared, and the blonde maid beside him looked even more unfathomable, and the first thing he thought of was the people of the Feng family.
Before Li Xiang could speak, a child's voice suddenly sounded in the church.
"Ah, you hateful fellows, don't bully Grandpa Claude!" a boy wearing a wooden helmet and wielding a small wooden sword rushed out of the church with a group of children like a child king, and surrounded Li Xiang at once.
"Tom!" Claude was startled, these children were all orphans he had adopted, and most of them had escaped by themselves because they couldn't stand the harsh orphanages.
The Five Thrones attach great importance to education, but there is not much left of the resources allocated from above, and orphanages and welfare homes are just places to nominally exist and make money for the people above.
It was through this that the head of the congregation established the Church of the Holy Dress, and she was deeply touched by the persecution of the unscrupulous welfare institution in her childhood.
"Big, adult, please don't get angry, they're just children, they don't know ......"
"It doesn't matter. Li Xiang interrupted Father Claude's words with a wave of his hand, looked at the little boy named Tom, and suddenly remembered the days when he and Hitomi Nogo were in the orphanage.
He watched with great interest as Tom waved the wooden sword in his hand, and suddenly asked, "Your name is Tom, right?"
"So what?!" Tom was actually a little timid, but he was too embarrassed to run away with a large number of younger brothers behind him.
"Why are you sure I'm the bad guy?" Li Xiang laughed.
"This, this ......"
"As a warrior, eyesight is very important, if you can't distinguish between friend and foe, how can you rely on the weapons in your hand to protect the people you value?"
"So, then you're a good person?"
Li Xiang chuckled, the child is really still a child.
Seeing that he showed no signs of making a move, Father Claude let out a long breath, the young man in front of him was obviously not the same as the group of fierce and vicious guys from the Feng family.
"Kid, just stab him, and each of you will get a packet of candy. Heatheria waved the staff she had taken out from under the maid's skirt, and a mountain of candy appeared like a juggling.
Her actions startled Father Claude, who did not practice himself, but also knew that magic users would pronounce magic terms when using magic, and I heard that there was only one type of instantaneous type.
That's the magic used by magicians.
Is this magic?
He was a little dazed, his brain couldn't turn, and when he came back to his senses, Tom's group of children had already rushed towards Li Xiang screaming.
A smile tugged at the corner of Heatheria's mouth, and she walked up to Father Claude while Lee wanted to play with the children.
"We're looking for a girl named Xue Ni, where is she?" the faint aura she inadvertently emitted made Father Claude feel a strong sense of suffocation, and he couldn't help but kneel.
"Hui, Hui, Lord Xueni...... She's still in Cicada Dew Temple, cough cough. Father Claude coughed violently, could no longer hold on, shook a few times, and sat down on the ground.
This kind of courage and momentum, he had experienced it once, and that was the only time he felt the sense of oppression when he had a close conversation with the head of the meeting.
But the maid in front of her breath was even more intense and terrifying.
"Cicada-dew Temple, find a child to take us there. Heatheria didn't say much, walked straight to Li Xiang, who was sharing candy, suddenly paused again, and turned back to him and added, "Oh, we're her friends." ”
Li Xiang walked out of the pile of children helplessly, looking at Heather with some headaches, she would sometimes spoof herself like this, knowing that he was most afraid of the children's entanglement.
After hearing Tom say that they also escaped from the orphanage, Li Xiang sighed.
He grabbed Tom by the hand and asked the imp to take them to the Cicada Dew Temple.
The so-called Cicada Dew Temple is now a martial arts hall, opened in the civilian area, recruiting many civilian young people to practice martial arts, strengthening their physical fitness at the same time, they can also lay a good foundation in junior high and high school, even if they can't become a magic user, they can also seek a good career after graduating from college in the future.
From the child's mouth, it turned out that Xue Ni was quite famous, she was the adopted daughter of Father Claude, and she was one of the few geniuses in recent years who was born in the civilian class and had the qualifications of a player.
Thinking of the genius girl who was admired by Tom and them, she had been hiding in the crypt for the entire ultimate trial, cooking soup and cooking for them, Li Xiang couldn't help laughing.
