Chapter 14: Clues

"Ann, you ......" Alex looked at Chen An in a daze, as if he couldn't believe that he would say this.

"You have two options now, either to denounce me after I'm gone, or to denounce me now...... Whatever choice you make, I don't blame you. Chen An said calmly, because his words were all sincere, not a test.

He is an ordinary and vulgar person, he is also afraid of death, but he will hold on to any glimmer of life. If someone asks him whether it is worth it to pay his life for a native of another world who has known him for more than half a year? His answer is not the so-called worthwhile or not, but that he must bear the consequences of what he has done wrong, since he was a child, his parents have taught him to change his mistakes, dare to act, this concept has long been deeply rooted in his bones, he is not an ungrateful person, let alone a coward who can only escape, this is the foundation of his Chen An!

"Ann...... Do you still regard me as your friend? If you are a friend, why do you say such hurtful things? Am I a shameless guy who sells my friends for glory in your eyes? If I were really this kind of person, I wouldn't have come to you as soon as I heard the news that the temple was going to arrest you, but would have gone straight to the temple to report you!" Alex trembled uncontrollably, his eyes glistened with tears, he clenched his fists, and roared at Chen An with a sad and angry face.

In fact, Chen An didn't expect Alex to have such a big reaction, he sighed, his heart was very uncomfortable, it was precisely because he regarded Alex as a friend, he would say this, but Alex couldn't accept it! Most children are growing up, parents will use the perspective of past experience to plan their children's future, once the child resists, parents will think "we are all for your good" To educate children, the problem is that children who are still in the rebellious period usually find it difficult to correctly understand the good intentions of their parents, and will only regard their parents' words as a shackle that restricts their freedom.

Alex is only fifteen years old, and Chen An, who has experienced this age, knows that sometimes it is unreasonable to face children in the rebellious period of youth, they will only stubbornly follow their own mood and code of conduct, even if Alex is precocious and sophisticated, he still can't get rid of his cognitive limitations.

"Alex, you have to think clearly! I'm just an ordinary person of unknown origin, and you've been through hardships since childhood, so you don't need to give up your bright future for me, because we're friends, I'm not willing to push my friends into the fire pit. Chen An explained bitterly.

"Ann, you don't need to say it anymore! Since you regard me as a friend, friends should help each other no matter what misfortune they encounter, and never leave each other!" Alex said with a firm and fearless expression as he reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes. "If you want to escape, we will run away together, and if there is suffering, we will carry it together, only cowardly and despicable villains will betray their friends!"

“......”

Chen An lowered his head, his eyes were sour, he was a big man who was so moved by a child that he almost cried, such a heartfelt and sincere feeling was something he had never encountered in the earth era, which made Chen An's lonely and cold heart in another world give birth to a long-lost warmth.

"Ann, let's run away! the sooner we escape, the safer we will be, by the way, what place did you just say that you can escape from the temple?" Alex, who was the first to recover, couldn't wait to see the situation in front of him.

"You're not unfamiliar with that place, because you were there not so long ago. Chen An, who secretly wiped the corners of his eyes, calmed down and said.

"Seal the Demon Tower!" Alex took a cold breath. "Ann, do you understand what kind of place the Demon Sealing Tower is?"

"I don't know, but I know that only in the Demon Sealing Tower can we escape the omnipresent pursuit of the temple!" Chen An shook his head.

“...... Do we really have to escape into the Sealed Tower?" Alex said hesitantly. "The Demon Sealing Tower is a desperate place of nine deaths and one life, even if the experienced Divine Favor is the slightest mistake, he may die in it, although I have entered it once with the predecessors of the Divine Dependent, but we are basically wandering and sweeping in a relatively safe area, and we don't dare to go deeper into the Demon Sealing Tower. ”

"But no matter how dangerous the Sealed Demon Tower is, we all have a chance of surviving, but there is no chance of survival in Osgard!" Chen An said helplessly. "From your tone, I can know the danger of the Demon Sealing Tower, and I will ask you about the details later, but now we must leave first. ”

"Okay!" Alex immediately responded.

"We have one more thing to do before we can escape to the Sealed Demon Tower!"

"What's the matter?"

"Purchase a large amount of dry food and drinking water to survive in the Demon Sealing Tower!"

......

At the same time, all the clergy gathered in the auditorium of the Ricky Temple again, and the old priest Baier was listening to everyone's investigation report with cold eyes, and the result was undoubtedly disappointing, the blasphemous instigator did not find out, but instead found out a few cysts responsible for rewarding the gods in exchange for money and materials!

Facing the silent priests, Baier stared at them quietly for a long time before he said angrily: "Rubbish! You shit! Now that the people of the other temples are watching our jokes, you can't find even a single clue about the blasphemous criminals! What use am I keeping you! If I can't find any more clues today, I will show it to my lord through prayer rites! When the time comes, don't blame me for killing me and not letting go!"

The priest of Bair has no intention of intimidation, in fact, the god of deception and lies is in a sense an evil god, and the methods of the evil god have always been cruel and bloody!

"Lord Priest, I think we may have missed an important clue!" With their lives threatened, someone finally racked their brains to think of something, and this person was the young priest who received Chen An and Alex that day.

"Say!" said Beyer, immediately glaring at the other party and succinctly.

"Lord Priest, since there is no result after careful examination in all aspects of the temple, it means that the blasphemous criminals are probably not from the temple, and in this case, there is another kind of person besides us who can enter and leave the temple hall in the open and open! This kind of person is something we have been ignoring!" said the young priest.

"You mean......" Priest Bair frowned.

"That's right, Lord Priest, they're the believers who came to sign up for the Awakening Ritual!"
