Golantis calmly walked through the battle that had gradually subsided, and the paladins and exorcists had completed the siege of the church. Two gray-robed men from the Inquisition stood in front of the church, seemingly undetermined to enter. But in reality, they weren't, they were just waiting for Evie.

"Go, Evie. Golantis whispered to Evie.

Evie nodded, "I understand, I'll see you later, Lord Golantis." With that, she stepped forward and came to the middle of the two gray-robed men.

It is well known that many clergy, even within the Order, do not like the attitude of the members of the Inquisition. The clergy believe that they usually do not have a heart of compassion, but that everything has a cause and effect. What Evie knows is that the members of the Inquisition were persecuted far more severely by heretics than she were when they were young, which is why they are not soft on any heresy.

"Are you ready, Evie of Greenwick?" asked Evie a gray-robed man.

"I'm ready. Evie nodded.

"Let's go. Another gray-robed man whispered.

The doors of the church are intact, and from a positive point of view it even has an aesthetic that is no less than that of Huttonmar Cathedral. But the Grey Men didn't care about that, they violently opened the door and went completely out into the darkness of the unknown. Evie walked behind the two gray-robed men, constantly gesturing with pious gestures to bless them with the power of the gods. Even the Inquisitors, who have always preferred to act alone, do not refuse blessings from paladins.

The main hall was empty, and now the livelier place seemed to be on the upper floor of the church. The sound of explosions interrupted the footsteps of the three men, and the black-robed woman from before was nowhere to be seen. Everything in the main hall was of no value in the eyes of the Grey Robes, and they had only one goal - all the members of the Dark Order.

"What's that?" asked the gray-robed man.

Evie looked up at the vault on the ceiling, and puffs of dust shook off with the sound of an explosion. "I think it's the guy in the mask who always likes to fiddle with weapons that have never been seen on this continent. ”

"As long as they don't affect us, we have our own goals. The other gray-robed man finally removed his hood, revealing a jet-black ponytail. She was young, even younger than Evie, but her fortitude was written on her face, and the sharpness in her eyes seemed to be able to penetrate all darkness. The purpose of their existence is to purge heresies, Evie thought, perhaps more qualified than any other priest to say that her soul would not be stained with darkness.

The Inquisitor tapped the end of his tomahawk lightly, as if to signal something. "I think we might need someone who is familiar with the church, and blind action will disrupt our rhythm. There was no doubt that she was speaking to Evie.

"I'm not sure Dominic knows the layout inside the church. Evie responded.

"Even the slightest bit of information is important to us, please call him here. ”

"I see. Evie turned and walked out of the church.

Explosive grenades exploded in the dark hallways, brief bursts of fire accompanied by screams from the faithful, and the lone ones were all ghosts of Maffeo's sword. The clean-up was tiring to Maffeo, but Warhammer was excited. He's a man of action and a natural troublemaker, so anything he finds unpleasant to look at ends up being blown to pieces by him.

"See, the explosion is a man's romance. "Warhammer carried a grenade launcher and made antics at the two of them.

"Yes, Warhammer King. Maffeo nodded helplessly. "But where are those kids? I think that's more important to us than to make an explosion. ”

"Let's just say it's impossible to see the kidnapped children in the upper floors of the church. Warhammer sat down on a broken table. "From the outside, there is nothing standing out about this church. It is impossible for the upper floors, which are usually used as resting places for believers, to keep children who are used as test subjects, and combined with the experience of our great ghost swordsmen, I think there is a 99% chance that the dark order's laboratory will be in the underground of the church. ”

Maffeo spread his hands, "What about the other hundred?"

"The other hundredth," Warhammer said, jumping down from the table and leaning closer. "There are no labs at all, and all mutations are done by drinking potions. While this is highly unlikely, it is unlikely that the people of Faroe Bay will be able to make large quantities of mutant potions all the time. ”

"Anything else you'd like to add?"

Warhammer raised his hand and extended his index finger. "Another thing is that they may have killed the children who didn't complete the mutation. ”

"Why are they doing this?"

"Is there any value to those children to them compared to being rescued by the clergy if they can't complete the experiment? Of course, you might say that they could take children hostage. But you know, this strategy doesn't work in front of those two grey-robed men. Warhammer gave his analysis.

"That's right, so instead of making an explosion here, let's go to the main hall on the first floor of the church. Maffeo gestured to his feet.

Warhammer let out a long breath, "No problem, I'm satisfied anyway." ”

"So, let's go. ”

Dominic followed Evie into the church with an expression like a gray northern snowy sky, and to be honest, he didn't want to deal with the guys at the Inquisition. Although he hated the fellows for different reasons than the other clerics, he thought the grey-robed fellows were too domineering. He doesn't like arrogant guys, and always has been.

"Dominic, if you know the layout of the church, tell them. Evie gestured to Dominic.

Dominic spread his hands indifferently, "I didn't go deep into the church, maybe you should ask the ghost." ”

"Are you sure?" questioned the Inquisitor. "Don't try to dodge the question. ”

"I'm sure. Dominic took two steps forward, an expression not to be outdone. "Now, put away your irritating attitude before I screw your head off. ”

"We're not here for infighting, Paladin, are you too stupid to understand this?" said the Inquisitor dismissively.

"Yes, no one thinks about infighting, but you may have time to check yourself. Dominic said, pointing to the two gray-robed men.

Evie tried to stop Dominic, but neither he nor the Inquisitor would give her a chance. "You'd better watch what you say and do, paladin!" another heresy snapped. "Otherwise, I promise the Order will expel you!"

Just as things were about to get worse and Dominic was about to open his mouth to fight back, he was interrupted by a voice coming from the door of the spiral staircase leading to the upper level of the church. "Anyone talking about expulsion?" said Maffeo as he walked out of there with his hands spread out and came to the front of the four clerics.

"Maffeo......" Dominic whispered.

"You're talking about ghosts, isn't he?" the Inquisitor looked at with wary eyes.

Dominic nodded silently, and now, he could only restrain himself. He didn't want his impulsiveness to make Maffeo his enemy, and that was a possibility now that the Inquisitor was here. After all, Maffeo didn't have too many concerns, he was completely unbound by any rules. If the Inquisition wanted to purify him as well, he would never have chosen to remain on the side of the Order.

Maffeo faced the two gray-robed men and said in a sincere tone. "I know that the presence will wary you, but I would say that if you could try to believe in your own non-hostile opposite, it might be much easier. ”

"Believing easily in our own opposites will bury us. The Inquisitor said coldly.

"So what are you going to do? Kill me, or tie me up and send me back to the Order?"

"I was able to vouch for him. Evie stood up and said to the two gray-robed men.

"Are you sure? Evie of Greenwick?"

"I'm sure. ”

Puffeo was grateful to Evie, and he chose to trust everyone present, as everyone understood that infighting was the worst-case scenario, and everyone understood that the current enemy was the followers of the Dark Order. Although the Inquisitors of the Heresy were disgusted with Maffeo, Maffeo knew that they knew how to judge the situation. Unnecessary conflicts and battles could have been avoided entirely, and while the start was not smooth or even bad, Maffeo felt that the rest of the story might not be so tiresome. [.]
