Chapter Twenty-Seven: Suspicion in the Camp
Dawn did not dare to take it lightly at all, ascetics were extremely special beings no matter which religious system they were in, and their infinite loyalty to the teachings of the gods and their harsh restrictions on themselves made this group have extremely powerful spiritual power. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info corresponds to their strong strength in their emotional absence. Powerful and not easy to get along with is a common label for this group.
"Humes, ascetic of Mandeola Monastery, may I ask if your Excellency is Wu Chenxi from the East?" the ascetic was the first to speak, and the medical staff in the car took the still unconscious ranger from Chenxi's hands.
Because his face was engraved with scriptures, he couldn't tell how old he was at first, but as soon as Humes spoke, Dawn felt that the other party's age didn't seem to be too old. It stands to reason that those who follow the precepts of ascetics will not walk in the world if they do not meet a certain number of years of practice. This made Dawn feel a little weird.
"Master Humes, just call me Dawn, are you the host of this camp?" Finally escaped, Dawn finally let out a long breath, and followed Lorraine in a tense atmosphere all day long, and he didn't feel anything when he ran away, but now he felt a little tired when he stopped.
"No, the Holy Grace Knight Hansel is patrolling the periphery, and he must be back in a moment. Humes owed slightly, and behaved in a manner that was very different from the ascetic in Dawn's impression. "I think you should have gone through a lot of risks to get here, I've already prepared a room, you can go with me to rest first!"
Dawn nodded yes, and without refusing, she followed Humes towards the tent. At this time, he really needs to rest and sort out his thoughts for the day by the way. Countless bloody experiences in history have taught him that dealing with the Holy See is like seeking the skin of a tiger, and he must be careful every step of the way, and the slightest carelessness will end up with no bones left.
The scale of the camp is not small, and it can be seen that the Holy See has been operating here for a long time. On the way, Humes returned the identity card to Chenxi and said politely: "The Pendragon family is our old ally, and I communicated with the Duke just now, and only then did I confirm your identity." I heard that you and Master Lorraine went out to practice, but I don't know why you are here alone?"
Although the tone was polite, Chenxi also heard the other party's suspicion and vigilance, plus the soldiers on both sides who never dispersed. Chenxi also understood that the other party was suspicious now, and it was him, a person who was still on the coast of western England in the morning inexplicably appeared in the heart of a deserted forest in the heart of Germany at night, no matter how he thought about it, it was an unbelievable thing.
"There were many sad stories that happened on this day. In order to protect us, Teacher Lorraine has stayed in this Black Forest forever!" Dawn felt very heavy at the thought of the old druid turning into a tree. The Black Forest line, although there are many twists and turns, there is nothing to be told about. At that moment, he picked up the important plot and recounted it to Humes, and the other party who listened to it was shocked.
Jehovah was above him, but in just over a decade, the situation in the Black Forest had deteriorated. A few years ago, I felt that something was wrong, but due to the strict orders of the Holy See and some personal matters, I did not dare to go deep into the jungle. Humes sighed. "I also worked with the Lords of Lorraine North back then, and I was extremely impressed by the master's personality ability, and I wanted to visit him when I visited England, but it became an eternal regret!"
Chenxi was stunned in her heart, and she was speechless when she listened. He knew of the Monastery of Mandeola, a monastery complex in the Greek state of Trikalas, which was considered a well-known ascetic stronghold in Christendom. Being able to come out of there, I don't think it's easy to think about it, coupled with the other party's description, I can't help asking: "I take the liberty of asking, have you known Teacher Lorraine for a long time?"
Humes was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what was going on: "You're curious about my age! If I'm not mistaken, I just celebrated my 254th birthday, and as for Master Lorraine, he is a little older than me." ”
"I don't know the identity of my predecessor, it's Chenxi who is reckless!" Chenxi hurriedly bowed and saluted, he didn't expect that the other party was an old monster similar to Lorraine. At such an age, the degree of body elementalization is not much different from that of the old druid. "What about Knight Hansel?" In order to prevent the same mistake from being made, Dawn simply asked here to understand.
Humes accepted the full salute of Dawn with a smile, and did not do much to be embarrassed. There are no years of cultivation, and the older many practitioners get, the more their personalities change back to their roots, so they will more or less have some weird hobbies that make people cry and laugh. It's like Lorraine likes to make the liquid medicine disgusting, and look at the awkward appearance of the drinker. Humes, on the other hand, likes to think of himself as a young man, and there is no malice in his nature.
"He's the disciple I took in here back then, a few years older than you. A few years ago, when I went back to the monastery to take care of some personal matters, I left the camp to him to take care of. There are a lot of special situations in the Black Forest these days, so I have to come back and deal with them. But I didn't expect to hear such sad news when I first came!" I don't know if it's because of what I'm worried about or if it's just my personality, Humes is very kind to Dawn.
Chenxi still didn't understand that this was the real decision-maker of the camp, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "Senior, the power of the Black Forest has grown, I don't know what you want to do next?"
"Rest easy, young man!" said Humes as he walked. "I can't convince the Holy See on your side alone. And now that the power of the Holy See is in a period of contraction, I am afraid that the Vatican will not show any rigidity on this issue!"
Dawn wanted to say something, but Humes waved to stop her. "You need to rest now, trust me, kid, impulsiveness and recklessness are never the right way to solve the problem. We need to take a long-term view on this issue!"
Seeing this, Chenxi knew that it would be useless to say more, so she nodded helplessly, bowed to the ascetic, and then followed a soldier to turn away.
Humes stood quietly on the side of the road watching the back of Dawn departing, with a strange smile on his lips. A monk in a white robe walked up to him and whispered, "Your Majesty, the Vatican asks about the situation in the Black Forest?"
"Just reply in the name of Knight Hansel!" Humes said coldly, "Just say, everything is fine, no special circumstances have been found!"
The white-robed monk bowed cautiously, turned away, and quickly disappeared into the camp building......
Dawn was tossing and turning on the hard bed, not because of the comfort of the bed, which was already a favor compared to the stone bed used by the ascetics. It's that he always feels that something is not quite right.
"Lao Bai, what do you think of that Humes, although he is enthusiastic, I always feel that he is a little awkward!"
"Hehe, that's not a human at all, of course you will feel uncomfortable!" Bai Ze was still fiddling with the memories of the witch Kach, and said disapprovingly.
"What?" Chenxi was taken aback and almost sat up from the bed, but she has experienced a lot of emergencies this time, and her personality is much more stable than before.
"A strange species, whose soul has been completely distorted and blended with its shell, at first glance looks as much of a species of extreme evil as if it had no soul. Bai Ze's tone was a little excited, the world outside Kyushu was really weird, and he had already seen a lot of spirits that surprised him within a few days of waking up, probably because of the rise of the ancient gods, the cognitive experiment on the soul was more thorough, but it was also more bloody and bottomless.
"Is it the product of ancient experiments again?" Dawn now generally understands that everything that has a distorted elemental structure or an irrational soul is basically the result of special experiments.
"It's the result of a medieval experiment, and the process of twisting the soul into such a form should be extremely cruel, and this kind of thing was only done by the medieval gods who were good at collecting souls. Moreover, this technique seems to be somewhat similar to that of the wolf, it should be the work of one person, but it is more primitive. ”
Having said that, the body materials of the wolf in the Black Forest were taken by Lorraine to study, and in the end, he didn't have time to clean up because of the battle and escape, which made Bai Ze feel a pity. This scholarly beast, although he was very despised by the medieval gods, showed great enthusiasm for their research results. Dawn can't help but think of those Allied researchers in the late World War II, and it is estimated that they were in the same state of mind when they collected data on the bloody experiments of Germany and RB.
"In this case, the source of that wolf, the ally that the witch Kach spoke of, seems to be inseparable from the Christian Church!" "Dawn thought for a moment, and felt more and more that something was not right. "You say, could all this be a conspiracy of the Vatican Holy See?"
"I'm sorry, but I don't have much say in the hearts of people. You humans are too complicated, I'm only interested in monsters!" "After experiencing the Age of the Holy Emperor of the rise of the human race, the countless bloody infighting and strife of the human race have already made Bai Ze lose his mind to exploring people's hearts.
Chenxi is not reluctant to do this, people's hearts are sinister and especially ghosts and gods, and a researcher like Bai Ze has the characteristics of a human being, even if he is a human being, he is estimated to be a person who does not understand human feelings. "What about Humes, according to you, if this is really an evil and deformed monster, it should be very repulsive to the Holy See's Holy Light elemental power, right?"
"Oh, it's a verse from him, it's not a decoration, it's like armor that protects. Those rune combinations that were originally just absorbing the light element became the umbrella of his dark body after being used by him, unless the elemental strength could directly exceed the absorption limit of the runes on his body, he would not be harmed by the light element!"
"It's still like this, if the dark creatures have a set of rune marks like this, wouldn't the Holy See's Holy Light power be completely a decoration!" Dawn didn't expect that the uncomfortable scripture mark would still have such a function.
"How can it be as simple as you say, the origin of his rune is not simple, and it contains a divine power that alternates light and darkness. In terms of fighting the light element, its value is comparable to that of an artifact!"
"What about the Messianic Spear?" Dawn couldn't help but think of the only weapon she had at her disposal right now.
"Don't show it off, that thing basically doesn't work for him, but it might be convenient for him. ”
