Chapter 272: Omen of Calamity
As soon as Lin Qiu came over, he found that the church knights who served as laborers were all depressed, and the battle was over, but they were tortured more physically and mentally. Although the tide was repulsed, the two important suspects were nowhere to be found, and the bishop gave them a stinky reprimand, and without even giving them time to sleep, he had them print the wanted warrants of Eric Moussa and Cyndora and post them throughout the imperial capital.
This was not the end of the story, and when they returned to the church exhausted, the workers who had rebuilt the church headquarters had arrived, and they were greeted with another lesson from the Holy Maiden. Before the knight could retort a few words, the knight was violently attacked by the Holy Maiden - jumping up and kicking you in the knee.
Seeing that Ramov had been overthrown, the Inquisitors had to yawn and devote themselves to the reconstruction of the church.
Lin Qiu and Phoenix came to the grand hall, the surrounding corridor was no longer the church corridor they were familiar with, the red patterned carpet was burned to the ground, the ceiling of the corridor had been torn off by the great battle, and the remains of decorative crystals were everywhere, and the nuns showed embarrassed wry smiles when they saw them.
The magnificent hall was set up by the Holy Maiden with a double defensive barrier, which allowed the Holy Maiden's room to survive the great battle.
"Oh——! you two are only here now!"
Lin Qiu and Phoenix hesitated at the door for a long time, and before they could knock on the door, the Holy Maiden opened the door of the magnificent hall. This time, Phoenix also lost confidence in her heart, not only did she demolish the saint's house unconsciously, but what was even more shameful was that she also fell for the other party's tricks when she went to trouble Eric, and she couldn't find an excuse to excuse herself from all angles.
"That...... I'm sorry!" the haughty phoenix finally lowered her head and weakly apologized to the saint.
The Holy Maiden cushioned her feet, her eyes widened, and her terrifying gaze turned between Lin Qiu and Phoenix for a long time.
The sun is coming out in the west!
"Bang-"
She closed the door of the magnificent hall, and it took more than ten seconds before she opened the door again and repeated the lines she had said before: "Oh——! you two are only here now!"
"I'm sorry!"
"You, you, you! you're going to apologize!" the saint pointed to Phoenix in disbelief. She had already thought of the script in the morning - she felt that with Phoenix's character, even if she committed a catastrophe, she would not obediently admit her mistakes, and the saint was always one step ahead, so she even thought of a trick to quarrel with Phoenix, she thought that after a fierce quarrel, she would vent the anger in her heart with a knee kick, but she never thought that Phoenix would take the initiative to apologize to her as soon as they met.
"What's your plot?"
The saint immediately became vigilant.
Who is Phoenix?
She was the villain leader who led the monsters to push humanity to a desperate edge during the First Demon War, and her crime at that time was much worse than tearing down a house, but she never took the initiative to apologize after the war!
"She has realized her mistake, we should take a longer-term view of this matter - after this battle, Phoenix has changed his mind and will never plan to destroy the church or anything like that behind his back!" Lin Qiu felt that he needed to say a few words for Phoenix at this time, he knew what a huge struggle Phoenix had made in his heart by taking the initiative to apologize to the Holy Maiden.
Gosya couldn't help but roll her eyes at Lin Qiu: "Even if you look at this matter from the perspective of development, you have also stabbed the basket - her attack on the church is clearly seen by people, coupled with the invasion of the demon tide, and the initiator is Eric Moussa, now people's wariness of monsters is unprecedentedly strong, and the church received several opinion letters asking the church to eradicate the monsters in the north early this morning." ”
"What's going on......?"
"I thought she didn't know anything......"
Gosia stared at the two of them who were whispering, and turned their heads to look at her from time to time, and the corners of her eyes twitched: "I don't want to know! Today, I came with the bishop and gave me a detailed report, and told me the current tense situation in the imperial capital!"
And the fat bishop is also the only unlucky ghost who has been kicked in the knee today.
The reason why Ramov was recruited was that he was negligent in his duties and dared to talk back to his boss.
The reason why the fat bishop was recruited was because he talked too much nonsense.
"But then again, aren't you supposed to be able to sooth such events?"
So Lin Qiu became the third player to be kicked in the knee.
The reason is, you have too many questions.
"Divination is very laborious, who has nothing to do and will use the holy pool for divination every day! But you, the church has made a huge concession in the matter of letting Phoenix live in the imperial capital, and now it is good...... What do you say you should do?"
"We can kill all the opponents quietly. Phoenix rubbed his chin gravely and offered his valuable opinion.
......
The atmosphere was silent for a while.
What Phoenix means is that we can talk to our opponents about our ideals, about our lives, and to change their views in a gentle way. Lin Qiu clutched his knees and decided to do something before the situation deteriorated further. He had expected that the saints would make a childish fuss when they saw them, and if that was the case, they would be able to cope with it. This time, however, Gosya raises a number of thorny real-world questions.
Putting aside Phoenix's personal involvement in the attack, even if she stayed out of the matter, people would fear and dislike her because of the appearance of the demon tide, because in the human vision, monsters are a whole race, and they will not treat them differently, and people usually have two ways to deal with the whole time.
One is to express one's hatred aggressively and directly, and the other is to bury the hatred in one's heart and secretly plan actions against monsters.
Seeing that the two of them couldn't come up with a reason, the saint puffed up her chest and said, "You must make up for it now, the church still has a lot of affairs to deal with, I have already told the fat bishop, you can go to his side to report later!"
"Understood. ”
Seeing that Gosya's mood gradually returned to stability, Lin Qiu and Phoenix left first. And after they left, the expression on Gosya's face changed slightly. What she said was all the advice of the fat bishop, but Lin Qiu's casual words were to the point.
She lied.
Unlike a shaman, she never needed any energy for divination, and it was her innate ability to foresee the future. Only this time her abilities failed, and before the incident broke out, she had seen the calm Imperial Capital through the Sacred Pool—not even the slightest sign of upheaval.
The failure of her ability made her heart faintly uneasy.
In fact, since Lin Qiu came to the imperial capital, many things she had foreseen had deviated, and the established line of fate had become a mess, and this time, it seemed that something was about to happen.
