Chapter 119: Entrapment and Temptation

readx;? A day later, at noon, four carriages were parked far beyond the confines of Black Rock City. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Meen instructed Loren to bring the gold back, and he would go to Black Rock City alone, perhaps with some gains.

Leaving the carriage, Meen walked towards Black Rock on foot, the countryside on the outskirts of the city looking no different than usual.

Even Meen saw a missionary explaining the teachings to the villagers.

It doesn't seem to be as serious as Frankie's letter suggests.

Odd.

At this time, Meen wore a hood and acted very low-key.

Maybe you should go to the church and ask Frankie, if he solves the problem, it will be a good thing for the current situation.

Black Rock is no different from the last time Meen was here.

The church in Black Rock is slightly larger than Lotta, but when it was built, it didn't have the blessing that Mean had hoped.

But as far as the development of the church is concerned, it is also a good thing to build a church.

Walking into the church, Minn saw an acquaintance at first sight, Lucia.

I haven't seen her for more than half a year, and this girl looks less immature and shy, and more calm and sophisticated.

Because it was the day of worship for the faithful, and there was a large crowd in the church, Mien sat quietly on the bench in the last row, and his presence did not attract the slightest notice.

And Lucia on the stage became more and more like a priest in Mine's eyes, her voice was neither humble nor arrogant, and her speech was coherent, but she did not lose her reverence for the Holy Light.

It seems that in addition to Reggie, this little girl can also focus on training in the future.

Perhaps more important than Reggie's snobbery, Minn values this little girl's down-to-earth way of doing things.

Luckily for Meen, it was the end of the service, and after a while, all the believers left.

Seeing that Lucia was the only one left to clean up the manuscript on the table, Mien got up and walked over.

And Lucia saw that there was still one believer who did not leave, and looked at the person who hid his face in the hood with a smile, "Sir, is there any more problem?"

Lifting the hood, Mien looked at the girl and smiled, "Lucia, long time no see." ”

Lucia was slightly stunned, but instantly recognized Mien, and covered her mouth in great surprise, "Your Excellency, why are you here?"

Mien made a silent gesture and whispered, "Don't be surprised, where is Frankie, take me to him." ”

However, at this time, Lucia's face showed a hint of embarrassment, "Lord Walker was invited to Lord Anderson's castle this morning, do you need me to inform him?"

Invited to the castle by Anderson?

Meen was silent for a moment, "No need, I'll wait for him here, if he comes back, let him come to see me as soon as possible, remember, don't mention my whereabouts to anyone." ”

Although Lucia didn't know why the Pope was so mysterious, she nodded, and didn't dare to ask.

Meen sat in his chair, and Frankie was invited by Anderson?

Even though Anderson was a pawn of the mage, Meen was not afraid that he would turn against Frankie.

After being enlightened by the system, Frankie is even smarter than Moran scholars.

He knew very well in his heart that if he left the church, he would be nothing, and since Mien had the power to give him so much, he also had the ability to take it back.

Here's the good thing about being smart, he knows what he can and can't do, and even if he has the idea of betrayal, he will at least act on it if he's fully capable of bringing down Meen.

Maybe with the help of Frankie, he can get something out of this Anderson's body.

After taking a cup of brewed black tea from Lucia's hand, Mine, who had been on the road all day, began to close his eyes and recuperate.

It wasn't until it was completely dark that Frankie returned to the church in a carriage.

In half a year, the militia youth who originally came from the countryside had a faint momentum that only a big man could have.

The hair was meticulously groomed, and the pure white embroidered gold-trimmed teaching uniform was neat and clean.

At Anderson's words, Frankie leaned back in the carriage and fell into deep thought.

Although the man took action to arrest all the people who spread the rumors and called them disorderly, he also had people declare that they had been tempted by demons, and declared the legitimacy of the church as the lord of the city.

For a newly established church, Anderson showed great sincerity!

Even at today's banquet, the lord of the city had to donate five hundred gold coins.

And before leaving, he invited himself to the castle often, and even intentionally or unintentionally promoted his little daughter to himself, although the doctrine did not prohibit marriage, he still politely refused.

All of this made Frankie always feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out.

And blindly accepting the benefits, which made Frankie, who had nothing to reciprocate, feel a little uneasy.

Know that there's a good chance there's a huge trap behind a free delicious cake!

As soon as Frankie stepped out of the carriage, he saw Lucia, a young priest who had taught him, waiting outside the door.

"What are you doing standing here at such a late hour?"

Lucia looked around and whispered, "Your Excellency, the Pope has been waiting for you inside for a long time. ”

Pope, Mine, how did he come?

Frankie's face turned pale, "Why didn't you inform me earlier?"

Lucia was a little aggrieved, "It's the Pope who won't let me disturb you." ”

After pondering for a moment, Frankie whispered, "You go and rest first, where is the Pope now?"

"He's been waiting for you in the church. ”

Walking into the church, he walked quickly behind Mien and bowed his head slightly, "Your Excellency, I've kept you waiting. ”

Minn naturally knew that it was Frankie who came in, patted the seat next to him, and did not look back, "Sit down first." ”

Unsure of the Pope's intentions for coming here, Frankie was a little uncertain.

Sitting next to Meen, Frankie looked at Meen, except for the face that was still familiar to him, and the Pope seemed to have arrived here on a journey.

Although he was a little nervous, Frankie was still calm on the surface.

"Is there anything the Pope is looking for me?"

Mien looked at Frankie and smiled, "I haven't seen you for a while, but your complexion is getting better and better." ”

Frankie laughed awkwardly, "Don't joke with me, my lord, is there something big happening?"

"There are some important things, but before that, I want to hear that Lord Anderson has invited you to the castle, is there anything important to discuss?"

Why did His Excellency the Pope remember to ask this again? Does it have anything to do with Black Rock City?

After a moment of silence, Frankie briefly recounted to Meen some of the events that had taken place in the castle.

Now Mien came to be interested, "Selling your daughter to you, hehe, it seems that Frankie is very attractive now, but I don't know if Selena still loves you." ”

Frankie laughed dryly, since he was in a high position, his vision was naturally different from before, and that Serena had long been forgotten by Frankie.

In addition to joking, Mien didn't forget to get down to business, "Although I don't know his purpose for the time being, at least for now, it seems that His Excellency the City Lord wants to entrap you." ”

Although Meen just said it casually, Frankie's face instantly sank, could it be that the Pope is suspicious of me?

Hurriedly got up from his chair and said to Meen, "Your Excellency, I have sworn that I will dedicate my whole life to the Church, to this great faith, I have never been..."

Meen interrupted Frankie and smiled, "Don't be so nervous, Saint Walker, I've allowed you to be caught up by Lord Anderson during this time, but you'll have to tell me anything suspicious about him, understand?"

After listening to Frankie's narration just now, Meen felt that the incident in Black Rock City this time was a bit like Anderson directing and acting, but it was still uncertain.

Frankie looked at Mine, could it be that Anderson had done something detrimental to the interests of the church? Thinking of this, Frankie, who had just attended Anderson's banquet, looked at Minn at this time and couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

"But my lord, this suspicious move..."

Mien pulled Frankie to sit down, "You'll find out later." ”
