Chapter 52: Encirclement and Suppression of Heretics

"How can we cross this hurdle?" asked Ao Xingfeng, looking back at Diamas. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

"It's up to you, I can't help you" Diamas shook his head, this is a matter of mood, others can only guide at most, and it is you who really make the choice.

Ao Xingfeng sighed, raised his head and continued to look up at the sky in confusion, not knowing what he would become in the future, and whether he would have the face to see the second elder when he returned to the earth. Diamas was a little helpless and left to let Ao Xingfeng be alone.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Ao Xingfeng was in a daze in the Holy See garden until night, and the priests passing by would bow and signal, and Orton took the Templars to guard the side, but Ao Xingfeng was too attentive to be in a daze and didn't notice.

"The child is innocent, should I understand his life that has not really begun in order to satisfy my selfish desires?alas~" Ao Xingfeng muttered, he had been in a daze for a long time, and his stomach had already growled, not to mention that the infidels had not been cleaned up yet.

"Have you finished meditating, you must be hungry, come with me to the cafeteria. Orton always thought that Ao Xingfeng was meditating, and no one was allowed to disturb him, so the priests who passed by around him all bowed quietly and left lightly, and now seeing that Ao Xingfeng seemed to be over, he stepped forward and asked.

"Hmm...... Let's go. Ao Xingfeng said a little embarrassed, and then followed Orton to the church cafeteria.

Marin and many heavily armed clergy searched Pompeii for the people on the list, and everything went well, and the officials were very self-righteous, as if they thought that they had done a perfect job, and that the Holy See could not find out that they were involved in the attack, or perhaps because they could not let go of their glory and wealth, and did not want to live a poor and wanted life, they all honestly stayed in their mansions, knowing that Marin led people to break into their homes, beat them up brutally, and then tied their hands fiercely, and connected them with a rope, and led them away like slaves。

The civilians began to fear what the Holy See was doing, and hid in their homes through the hidden windows to observe the line of officials in the streets, and the streets of Pompeii began to become deserted, with only a few daring civilians, mercenaries, and adventurers daring to continue to wander outside, and most of them hid in their homes and shivered.

The Holy See has always been a gentle and friendly behemoth in the hearts of the people, and many people have forgotten how terrible this behemoth will be after being provoked, and this incident has awakened the awe of the people of Pompeii for the Holy See.

"Holy Envoy, I have lived up to your request, and all the people on the list have been escorted to the gates of the Holy See. Ma Lin panted and ran to Ao Xingfeng's side and said, looking very proud.

"Drop! Mission 2 Completed (Path of Legends)" sounded at the right time, proving that Marin's words were true.

"Well done, let's go take a look" Ao Xingfeng wiped his mouth, and the food on the plate was wiped out.

Outside the church gate, many people with swollen faces and ragged clothes, their hands tied to a rough hemp rope, all their wrists were strangled with blood and their faces were dejected, and many clergy soldiers stood around the prisoners, preventing them from escaping.

"What a bunch of bad things. Ao Xingfeng looked coldly at the officials who were crying wolves, he had no grievances or even acquaintances with them, and they were secretly doing a black hand, which made Ao Xingfeng very angry.

"Holy Envoy, what are you going to do with them?" asked Marin as he stood beside Ao Xingfeng.

"Holy Envoy, forgive me, it was the city lord who instigated us to do such a stupid thing," a ragged official begged on his knees.

"Please spare me a dog's life, I have a child of a few years old, what will he do if I leave like this, woo woo. A man with a swollen skin and a bloody face hid his face and wept.

"It's all we don't know what's wrong, snap!" An official slapped his already swollen face again, hoping to win Ao Xingfeng's sympathy, and the other officials were also trying to think of various ways to curry favor with Ao Xingfeng.

It's just that they think too much, Ao Xingfeng was already irritable because of some things, and their begging for mercy sounded like a ghost crying wolf howling to Ao Xingfeng, and Ao Xingfeng was in the limelight.

"Burn them all!" Ao Xingfeng yelled, then turned to return to the hall of the church, ignoring the insults from the officials.

Marin stepped forward and grabbed those who dared to insult the Holy Envoy at this juncture, and beat them so hard that they were bleeding internally, and even if they were spared, they would not live long before they died.

"They were all pulled to the square and burned, if these villains died in the church area, they would pollute the air in the church area. Following Marin's order, the surrounding warriors pulled ropes and dragged the officials who were lying on the ground rolling and afraid of death, and walked towards the square.

Ao Xingfeng stood in the hall of the church, looked at the pipe organ embedded in the wall in front of him, and said to Orton beside him: "Orton, there are still many hidden heretics in Pompeii, when will the reinforcements arrive? ”

"Your Majesty, by tomorrow afternoon at the latest, the nearest Knight Chief of Plongton will arrive with his men. Orton said respectfully.

"It's too late, I'm worried that they will take advantage of this time to sneak out of the city, is there a way to get help from the city guards?" asked Ao Xingfeng.

Orton thought for a moment and replied, "Now that the city lord and city magistrate of Pompeii are dead, the people who can still be responsible for mobilizing the city guards are probably the city lord's son Clay, and those squad leaders, the Holy Envoy, we can use the name of Clay to get their help in a short time." "Clay, as the first in line to the throne of Pompeii, has the right to temporarily serve as acting lord in the event of the lord's death, after which the emperor will send a mentor to assist Clay until he reaches adulthood before he can fully inherit his father's position. As the Holy See, he has the right to temporarily serve as the mentor until the emperor's order arrives, so that the city defense army can be mobilized.

"Well, without further ado, you can go and deal with this matter. Ao Xingfeng had no other way, so he let Orton deal with the matter.

"Diamas, let's go to the city for a walk, and if the priest comes back later, tell them that my companions and I will go out for a walk and will come back soon, so that they don't worry. Ao Xingfeng first said to Diamas, and then spoke to a pastor next to him.

"Yes, Holy Envoy. The pastor bowed ninety degrees and said respectfully.

"Xingfeng, you're famous now, and you're going to go outside like this?" asked Diamas with a smile.

"Could it be that I still have to change my skin?" asked Ao Xingfeng.

"Come with me. Ao Xingfeng followed Diamas suspiciously.

“......”

Shortly after, two suspicious figures, dressed in brown cloaks, walked out of the church, hooded and headed towards a tavern known to Diamas. These two people are Ao Xingfeng and Diamas.

Compared with when Ao Xingfeng and they entered the city before, the streets were indeed a lot depressed, and there were only three or five pedestrians on the road.

Although there were few passers-by along the way, it also opened Ao Xingfeng's eyes, and he saw half-orcs, dwarves, elves, etc., and even saw a giant with a height of three meters.

"Diamas, how far is that tavern you are talking about?" asked Ao Xingfeng in a low voice.

"It's going to be almost there, and we're going through the intersection in front of you. Diamas said with some excitement.
