Chapter 35: Coercion
"The Orb is the key to a lost treasure. ”
"Lost treasure?
"I heard that before the Age of Light, at the end of the Age of Beasts, the orcs attacked the continent, and at that time it was a shocking treasure hidden by humans. ”
"Legend has it that the Holy Pearl contains the secret of sanctification, and everyone who gets the Holy Pearl, even if it is a waste, can become holy!"
"Liar. How is that possible?"
"If you don't believe it, otherwise you think that the reason why the Holy See is so powerful is because the Holy Bead has given birth to a large number of Sages. ”
"That year, the Throne of Light descended from the sky, and on top of the Throne of Light was placed the Holy Pearl, which was the most powerful artifact given by the God of Light to the Holy See of Light. ”
"How do you know?"
"Hehe, you don't know, last night the Bright Sect stormed the Bin Fu Silk Auction House in order to recapture the Holy Pearl. ”
"I've heard that the Dark Curia is about to send a big man to fight for the Holy Pearl, which contains a secret to becoming a god. ”
"Become a god, is it one of the nine gods of this era?"
"Of course not, which one!"
"You mean"
"Bang!" the precious porcelain fell to the ground, shattering and splintering with each other, slicing across the faces of those kneeling in front of the table, leaving a shallow mark of blood.
"Such important news, our Holy Emperor Kingdom actually didn't know until now, this is the powerful intelligence system you told me. ”
Saint Loki roared with extreme anger, his voice was hoarse, and the bruises on his mighty face were exposed, and there was no trace of aristocratic temperament at all.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, this news is groundless, I haven't heard the slightest rumor before, I promise, this is all nonsense from people with intentions, I can't believe it. ”
"You vouch!" St. Loki kicked the speaker in the face, a mouthful of blood spurted out, two teeth flew out, and rolled out the door, "What are you?
"Check, find out the truth of the matter for me. St. Loki roared, "If that's true, you're all going to die for me." ”
"Your Highness, now is not the time to be angry, let's think about how to use it. “
The old man standing behind St. Loki spoke.
St. Loki glanced at the old man, snorted, and pulled out a gray scroll.
"Space Transmission Scroll, Your Majesty actually handed over this thing to you!" The old man let out a sigh of relief when he saw the scroll, and smiled lightly: "With him, at least we won't be left behind." ”
Space communication scroll, a special scroll made by a legendary-level space mage to transmit information, using a person to write a message on one scroll, another scroll will be revealed in its original form, which is a rare artifact in war.
"You shit, you wasted one of my most precious scrolls. ”
Saint Loki picked up a pen with a painful face, this was the last scroll in his hand, and after using it, there was not much possibility of getting it.
"The holy pearl contains a great secret, and it is a matter of becoming a god, please ask Your Majesty to decide. ”
The silver-gray font appeared on the scroll, gorgeous and noble, gradually disappearing, and when the last word disappeared, brilliant magic fluctuations appeared on the scroll, and the whole scroll made an overwhelming sound, and the sound of "click" continued to sound, turning into a tattered waste paper in St. Loki's pitiful eyes
Father Luo Feng chanted the healing technique over and over again, and the holy light in his hand began to flicker from early in the morning, and it didn't finally stop until noon.
He wiped the sweat from his head, and was weakly helped aside by a paladin. It's just that his eyes have been staring at Gao Sheng and he hasn't left for a moment.
Last night's trip to the Kebin Floating Silk Auction House was very dangerous, as soon as he arrived in Bolol City, he lost several paladins and a high-ranking priest without a trace of gains, and even the high-ranking knight was seriously injured in the quasi-forbidden spell and remained unconscious.
Although his healing technique could heal the physical wounds, it did not help the spirit, and he vaguely felt that Gao Sheng seemed to have made a new breakthrough in that storm, and now he just didn't want to wake up.
"My lord, Bishop Joshchenck of the United Nations has asked for a meeting. A knight hurriedly walked in, got down on one knee, and reported to Luo Fengyu.
Luo Feng frowned, Joshchenk, what are you doing at this time? After a moment of silence, he waved his hand and said, "Please let him in." ”
"Yes!"
After a while, an old man in a white robe walked in, saw Luo Feng, turned his hands in front of his chest, and said softly, "Bright God protection." ”
Luo Feng struggled to get up, the continuous physical consumption made him very weak, he put his hands in front of his chest, and said softly: "Bright God protection." ”
Joshenk glanced at Luo Feng with deep meaning, and as soon as he raised his hand, a holy light technique sprinkled on Luo Feng's body, Luo Feng suddenly felt a burst of relief, and the soreness in his body was greatly relieved.
He gratefully continued, "Thank you. ”
Joshchenk waved his hand with a smile, looked at Luo Feng and said, "God of Light protection, this is all God's will." “
Luo Feng obediently agreed, in the Holy See of Light, God's will can never be refuted, not to mention that the old man in front of him is still a noble bishop, Luo Feng will not refute.
"Your Excellency, I don't know what else God wills?"
Joshchenk sat down on the chair next to him, picked up the tea on the table, moistened his throat, and when he heard Luo Feng's words, he raised his head and said with a smile: "Luo Feng, I came this time to confirm the matter of the Holy Pearl." ”
"Holy Pearl?" Luo Feng thought for a while, and couldn't help but say strangely: "What is the matter with the Holy Pearl? Could it be that you also know that the Holy Pearl was stolen, could it be that you are here specifically to arrest heretics?"
"Heresy? No, no, no, the priest misunderstood, I didn't come for heresy. ”
"That's?" Luo Feng frowned, dissatisfied with Joshneck's answer, as a clergyman, bathed in the light of the Holy Light, hearing about heresy but not reacting, this is not what a bishop should do.
"I want to ask, does the holy bead contain the secret of becoming a god?"
Joshneck's old fingertips flickered at the table, his eyes just looking at Luo Feng's expression.
Luo Feng was taken aback, and replied categorically: "Become a god? impossible! How can there be such a thing!"
"Impossible, but the outside world has already spread the rumors, and the great kingdoms have already reacted. ”
"Outside?" Luo Feng summoned a paladin and pointed outside: "You go and inquire." ”
Joshchenk watched Luo Feng's movements and didn't stop it, and after a while, the paladin came back and whispered in Luo Feng's ear, Luo Feng's face became worse and worse, and he became iron-blue.
Joshchenk smiled and said, "Father Luofeng, you can admit it, is the Holy Pearl related to becoming a god?"
"Impossible, impossible! I've never heard of the Holy Bead having anything to do with becoming a god, it's just a powerful defensive artifact in Cosmo's giant city, and it has no other use!"
"Then can you tell me why you participated in the siege of the Kebin Floating Silk Auction House yesterday, wasn't it to retrieve the Holy Pearl?"
"To catch a heretic. ”
Joshchenk's eyes sank suddenly, and they became a little ugly: "Father Luofeng, the matter has come to this, don't you want to tell the truth?"
"Everything I said is true. Luo Feng's temper came up, as a clergyman, honesty was a promise he made to the God of Light, and it was suspected that honesty was a blasphemy against his faith.
"Hmph, Luo Feng, are you going too far, I'm also a member of the Bright Sect, can't even I reveal it?" Joshchenk was furious, like an old lion, provoked by Luo Feng's blunt words.
"Bishop Joshchenk, this is not the case, this must be a heretic spreading rumors, as far as I know, it is nothing at all, how can I reveal it. ”
"So, you're not willing to tell me the truth?" Joshman said coldly, retracting his hands, crossed them together.
Luo Feng stared at Joshchenk's eyes violently, his face flushed and rolling, which was a sign of the rising false fire, and he said, "Lord Bishop, do you want to insult my character!"
"Hmph, since the Holy Pearl is related to becoming a god, then what guarantee is there for your character!"
"You!" Luo Feng stood up, pointing at Joshman with some trembling, his face was angry, his hands clenched unconsciously, and the magic fluctuations jumped in his hands, ready to attack.
"What's the matter?" Joshchenk looked at Luo Feng with disdain, very playful.
"Lord Bishop, since you don't believe me, then don't send it!" Luo Feng said coldly, without looking at Joshchenk's increasingly red face, and turned to leave.
"Your Excellency, Lord Catherin of the Kingdom of Curtis begs to see. ”
At this time, a knight walked in and reported to Luo Fengyu.
Luo Feng was stunned, turned around and asked, "Why is he here?" Halfway through speaking, his eyes suddenly became fierce, and he glared at Joshink and said, "It's you!"
Joshchenk calmed down at this time and sneered: "Hmph, Luo Feng, I'm going to see if you can still be as strong as ever." ”
"You!" The strength of the eighth-day level light mage raged from Luo Feng's body, his face was pale, but the majesty of that kind of powerhouse filled the entire hall. "You are a disciple of the Bright Sect, why should you come with outsiders to deal with your companions!"
"Companion!" Joshchenk snorted coldly, the white robe "banged" and unfolded, the powerful momentum overshadowed Luo Feng's momentum in an instant, and Luo Feng retreated, he said coldly: "Then companion, can you tell the truth!
Luo Feng took a deep breath, suppressed the blood surging up in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "I said, no! ”
"Hahahaha" An arrogant laugh rang out from outside the house, and Katrin's delicate but annoying face appeared in the doorway, "Your Excellency Joshchenk, I'm not wrong, Luo Feng doesn't have a word of truth about you at all! ”
"What are you, who let you in, get out!" Luo Feng roared, directing the group of paladins behind him to kick Catelyn out.
Katrin flipped her hands indifferently, looked at Bishop Joshink and said, "Lord Bishop, what do you think we should do now?"
Joshink glanced at Katrin, turned his head and asked again, "Tell me the truth!"
Luo Feng was about to hold on, he was weak and was not Joshchenk's opponent who was already stronger than him, the overwhelming power crushed over, wisps of magic fluctuations kept jumping on his body, fine beads of sweat covered his forehead, his lips began to turn white, he opened his mouth with difficulty, and said, "No!"
Joshchenk's face became more and more gloomy, and under Catherin's mocking face, he broke out without reservation, and the momentum of the eight-day peak was raging like the sea, and the waves slapped towards Luo Feng.
Luo Feng was extremely angry in his heart, he really wanted to roar and scold, the high priest swayed like a lonely boat floating on the sea, his body was about to fall apart, and every joint was extremely sore.
"Say!" Joshchenk roared, he was secretly frightened, he opened his bow and did not turn back, if he didn't ask it, how would his bishop's face remain, not to mention, the holy bead contained the secret of becoming a god, and he felt his heart tremble when he thought of this.
"Yes, let's say it. If you say that, you won't feel pain," Catelyn said with a smile as she leaned against the door frame and gloated at the two people in the room, behind him, a group of paladins were entangled and suppressed by soldiers.
"If you do this, the Holy See will not let you go. Luo Feng said word by word, he felt that his body was getting heavier and heavier, and a drop of sweat wet his hair, gradually fascinating his eyes, and even his breathing began to be short.
"When I become a god, the Holy See will not punish me for being a little priest like you. ”
Joshchenk said arrogantly, and the majestic momentum exploded, gradually condensing into eight faint suns, and a powerful light magic wave appeared in front of him.
Just when Luo Feng couldn't support it, a silver-armored figure appeared behind him, his burly body was like a giant, he stood there, didn't say anything, held Luo Feng with one hand, and the two pitch-black holes turned around slowly, staring at Joshneck.
A sense of crisis came over Joschenk's mind, and the two pitch-black holes were like the gaze of a beast, making him unconsciously take a step back.
"Who are you?"
The smile on Katrin's face was gone, and as soon as the lazy momentum was retracted, the sword-like momentum shrouded in, and the strength of the eight-day level swordsman was released. A silver greatsword appeared in his hand, tightly defending against the silver-armored knight who exuded a dangerous aura in front of him.
"You're awake!" A smile appeared on Luo Feng's pale face, looking at the ascension of the silver armor, the anger in his eyes was no longer hidden: "They are all blasphemers, kill!"
