While the king and the ministers in the royal palace were discussing, the lively city of King Otos did not cause too much commotion because of the arrest of a paladin chief just now, everything was going on as usual, but the atmosphere in the church in the best part of the royal city was extremely solemn.

The doors of the church had been closed since the afternoon, and the eldest of the four white bishops was kneeling in front of the idol in prayer, while the others, including the three remaining bishops, missionaries, and paladins, stood solemnly in front of the statue and waited for the praying bishop.

After about ten minutes, the elderly bishop finished praying, and stood up with the help of a servant, and he looked at the crowd with a very heavy expression, and he sighed helplessly at the familiar and determined faces in front of him.

"Are the demon's props found in the knight's house the same as those found in the cities?"

"It's very similar, but it's not exactly the same, the demon's props actually appeared in large numbers in the territory of the Otos country at the same time, I'm afraid this matter is not simple. ”

The other bishop standing on one side replied, his face full of worry, could it be that there are still demons in the endless desert that have survived, and now they are going to start to erode the rule of the gods from the country of Otos?

The paladins below all looked at several bishops with complicated expressions, none of them could believe that the chief knight was a believer in the devil, the bishop must have been mistaken, the chief knight in the paladin was obviously the most faithful believer of God, and there was a young paladin who couldn't help but stand up for the knight.

"Lord Bishop, the chief knight must have been framed, I have never seen a paladin who believes in God so faithfully as he is, how can he believe in the devil in secret?

"Bold, are you questioning the Bishop's judgment?"

Another man wearing the armor of the deputy chief knight immediately reprimanded this boy who did not know the height of the sky, he had been pressed by the chief knight for so many years, and finally turned over from the chief knight to the deputy chief knight, how could he let the chief knight come out again? He immediately knelt on one knee and said his opinion in front of the bishop in righteous words.

"Your Excellency, this outbreak of a nationwide event must have been planned by someone for a long time to use demonic props to cause harm to the world, but thanks to the demonic detectors left behind by God who discovered their evil plans, and everyone's home has found demonic props, the evidence is conclusive, and these incompetent people must be severely punished to warn others. ”

The young knight's face flushed under the reprimand of the deputy chief knight, and he wanted to say something more, but the paladin who was narrating quickly grabbed him and shook his head.

The elder bishop looked at the two paladins kneeling on the ground, they had been together for so many years, and he didn't know what the knight's character was, the whole incident was too strange, but the church's purpose in dealing with 'demon'-related events has always been to rather catch mistakes than let them go.

The appearance of people is different from the heart, if the knight is really a believer in the devil, but he hides it deeply, then his sin will be great.

"You two get up first, the gods have their own judgment, they will not wronged a good person, and they will definitely not miss anyone who believes in the 'demon', now the demon's power is likely to have revived, I must report this matter to the archbishop as soon as possible, and you must not let your guard down for a moment. ”

The two paladins kneeling on the ground replied with their heads bowed and heavy expressions on their faces, but they were thoughtful.

"Your Excellency, the judgment of these demonic believers ......"

In fact, the bishops know very well in their hearts that the so-called judgment is just a formality to let the common people know that the church is not arbitrary, and to warn everyone not to try to resist the power of the church. It's just that this time so many people were arrested at one time, I am afraid that the church has left not only majesty in people's hearts, but also fear.

"Send someone down to find out where so many demonic props came from, as for those who were caught...... Deputy Chief Knight, I will first interrogate you to see what useful information you can get, and this trial will have to wait until everything is clear. ”

"Yes, Lord Bishop!"

When the paladins and missionaries had dispersed to do what they had to do, the four bishops, who were in charge of the church, came to a room that only the four of them could enter.

The roof of the room was glass, and the sunlight shone through the glass on a metal ring placed on the central round table, and the white ring was connected to a square plate of unknown material with strange patterns.

This is the 'demon detector' left by God to the church, which can clearly point out the direction and distance of the appearance of the 'demon's breath', and this is how the people of the church have captured batch after batch of 'devil believers'.

The four bishops sat in each of the four directions of the round table, and they would sit together so solemnly to discuss what to do if something big had happened in the church, but they could not remember the last time they had sat around this table many years ago.

"In your opinion, how should we report this incident to the archbishop?"

The older bishop initiated the question as the presiding officer of the meeting, and the other three bishops all frowned, looking at each other and having no more good ideas, in fact, the church has ruled the faith of the people on the continent for so long, they hardly think about what they should do if the demon really comes back one day, just practice magic every day and worship the gods.

"The Knight Chief has been trained as a regular paladin in Star Emblem City since he was a child, and believes in the gods devoutly, how could he have come into contact with those evil things? I would like to believe that he was framed. A bishop expressed his opinion.

"Not necessarily, the chief knight has been worshipping the gods in the church for so long, and there are probably other traitors in the church, perhaps we should warn the archbishop to be careful of enemies from within. Another bishop wondered if that was the case, then the situation would be serious.

"If it is true that there are people who believe in demons within the church, then his purpose should be to disintegrate the strength of the church from within, and there will definitely be moves and leaks in the future, but if the enemy comes from the outside, where should we start?"

The last bishop also expressed his thoughts, and only the older bishop was left to decide, how to remind the archbishop to be careful, and how to deal with the series of events in the country of Otos.

The older bishop looked at the demon detector in front of him, his mind kept recalling the speeches of these people just now and analyzing who said more reasonable one by one, and finally made a decision in his heart, he would rather catch the wrong thing than let it go, everything is based on God's will and the church, anyone who may threaten the status of God and the church must be punished as he deserves, and any event that may threaten the status of God and the church must not exist even the slightest sign!
