There was a dead silence. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

There was not a single sound in the church of Notda. You Lian reversed the pitch-black long sword in his hand, and then the corpse at his feet suddenly trembled, and then, the whole person was like a deflated ball, and everyone saw a pure white brilliance seeping out of the corpse's body, and then it was absorbed by the pitch-black long sword, and then disappeared into the dark sword body. It was only then that Yulian kicked the corpse at his feet, and the corpse spun around a few times after being affected by an external force, and then rolled to the side. And at this moment, everyone could see clearly the withered, frighteningly pale face under the mask. It was as if everything in the poor knight's body had been emptied, leaving only a layer of skin around the bones.

What kind of evil law is this!

"The Church of Grace is still the same as before, savage, rude, and unreasonable. ”

Yu Lian leisurely picked up the long sword in his hand and shook off the blood it carried, leaving a dazzling red on the white floor.

"You don't know how to listen without a pump, stubborn elephant-headed mule. You've been the same since hundreds of years ago, and it seems that stupidity is inherited. ”

No one answered, and it was true that every word Yulian said was outright blasphemous, but now, at this moment, in this place, he had proved his strength with his actions that no one could match. Even the Knights of Grace, who are regarded as the guardians of the Church of Grace, are not his generals, so who will be his opponent here?

Naturally, the royal guards could not count on the fact that, according to the agreement, the seat of the Mage's Guild and the Church of Grace was their private territory - somewhat akin to a foreign embassy, enjoying immunity. But again, they must rely on themselves to protect their own safety, and the royal family will not send troops to help them unless they ask for it. However, whether it is the Mage Association or the Church of Holy Grace, they are all people whose hearts are higher than the sky, how can they pull their faces down and ask for help from the royal family?

The believers were now huddled in the corner, hugging each other and shivering. And the faces of the bishops who were standing were not much better. Their gaze flew between the Knight-in-Grace lying in the distance, and the dry skeleton beside Yuren, and their faces were blue and red. In just an instant, the military support they were so proud of completely collapsed, which was completely beyond the imagination of the bishops, and they couldn't help but wonder about Yulian's origin, but they couldn't see anything from the man in front of them. Thinking of this, they couldn't help but look a little ugly. It is true that they have a devout faith and have the consciousness to dedicate their lives to it. However, even so, in the face of meaningless sacrifices, they still have to think twice.

Finally, the old bishop sighed, then took a half-step forward and bent down deeply.

"I apologize to you for their stupidity, Lord Yuren. ”

Seeing the old bishop's behavior, everyone's eyes widened in surprise, neither those believers nor the bishop could understand why this old man, who had always been highly respected, would bow his head and apologize in front of such an evil murderer, they couldn't imagine it at all, and they couldn't imagine it.

For Yuren, though, it's clear that this isn't enough.

"If an apology helps, then why do you need the police?"

He waved his hand, his face was still leisurely and indifferent, relaxed as if he was drinking afternoon tea.

"As I said, I am asking for moral damages, and this request should not be excessive. ”

“............... How much do you want?"

Hearing this, the old bishop frowned, but he responded quickly, and Yulian reached out and slowly re-sheathed the sword, and then held the hilt of the sword in one hand, and thought for a moment with a light tap, and then answered.

"You see, I'm not an unreasonable person, and since you've bowed your head to me and admitted your mistake, then I'll naturally give you a clear price list............ First of all, I was unreasonably suspected and charged with crimes, which affected my reputation and innocence. The fact that the Church dared to arrest me without any evidence was a serious damage to my reputation and personality, so ......... I first ask for a million in compensation. ”

"What did you say? .........!!"

Hearing this, the old bishop had not yet spoken, but the cardinal behind him spoke, and he raised his hand to point at Yulian with a blushing face.

"You're just ........."

"I'm not done yet. ”

Yuren immediately interrupted the cardinal's words, and then held out a hand.

"Secondly, the four idiots of the Inquisition Chamber did it to me in public, and they tried to hurt me and imprison me. In view of this, I will add two million in compensation, 500,000 per person, which is a very fair price. Again, it's a discount for the sake of them who are dead. ”

With that, Yuren's raised hand pointed to the side, and then continued.

"Next......... These are these two wastes, charged with the same crimes, and because of their relatively high status in the Church of Holy Grace, the amount of compensation I demand will also be increased -- in this way, for the sake of them are already dead, a 5% discount will be given to you, and 2.5 million yuan per person will be enough. In other words, in total, you have to pay me eight million gold coins in moral damages, then this matter can be settled. ”

Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened in surprise, and they couldn't believe their ears at all. Eight million!!This person is so angry!!Moreover, he was the one he killed, but he still asked himself for money?! Indeed, the Holy Grace Church in the royal city has also had a lot of savings over the years, but eight million is too exaggerated!!

"You're simply reversing right and wrong!!"

The cardinal finally relented, gasped, and opened his mouth to exclaim.

"Why did you ............ when you killed someone?"

"But you're the one who makes the first move. ”

Yulian interrupted him again.

"I'm just in self-defense, it seems that the Church of Grace is indeed a bunch of idiots, no matter how young it is, it will not change, it is no different from before. Manfitt's old fool was an idiot, and his descendants didn't seem much better. If you don't get stimulated by blood and death, you don't seem to remember that they are still human, not something that can be above all things. ”

"Shut up, you bold fanatic, you dare to insult the Divine Ancestor!!"

Hearing Yu Lian's words, it seemed that everyone had forgotten the fear of death for a while, not only those cardinals roared angrily, but even those believers who were trembling at this moment straightened their backs and shouted angrily at Yu Lian. It was as if what he had just said had touched the most sacred and inviolable corner of their hearts.

In the Church of Grace, the only person who has the right is the Holy Bishop, followed by the Archbishop who is in charge of the religious affairs of each country, and the cardinal under him, and finally the regional bishops and priests who are assigned to the regions. In other words, the Holy Bishop is the most noble being within the Church of Holy Grace, and each Holy Bishop is regarded as the embodiment and spokesperson of Mana. In particular, the Holy Bishop of Manfit is an unprecedented presence within the Church of Holy Grace. The reforms and programs he presided over have benefited countless suffering people on the mainland, and even stopped several bloody wars. He was always present in the most dangerous places, bringing warmth and happiness to those who suffered. After him, the holy bishops of the Church of Grace changed their previous practice of sitting on the high hall and began to walk the continent. Because of this, many believers regard Manfitt as the greatest bishop, and some fanatical believers even believe that he is the son of Mana -- a status only under God.

However, for Yuren, this man is a completely different story. At that time, he had just freed the spirits, and the imprisoned spirits did not have much hatred for the Church of Grace at first. At the time, Charlotte and her sisters were just hoping that Julien would lead them to meet the Holy Bishop and let him know the truth. After all, the person who killed and imprisoned their souls in the first place was none other than the previous Holy Bishop. So in the beginning, the girls were very simple-minded, they just wanted the murderer to step down from the altar and be expelled from the temple, instead of being remembered and remembered like other sacred ancestors. After all, some of the wandering spirits were believers in the temple, and they may have lost their hope and faith for a while, but in general, they still had some hope for the temple. Moreover, Manfit was described as a saint at the time, so the geists also wanted him to understand the pain of themselves and others.

However, in the end, the Holy Bishop completely disappointed the spirits, perhaps out of consideration for the prestige of the Church, Manfitt ostensibly agreed to their request, but in secret, he arranged for the Holy Grace Knights to carry out an ambush and encirclement of them, although, in front of the gifted knights, this boring ambush naturally ended in failure, but it also completely broke the spirits' hearts, and since then, they have begun to hate the Church, and see anyone who has anything to do with the Church of Divine Grace, either expelled or killed directly。 The spirits' minds had been twisted and distorted by a long period of darkness and painful death, but after being refused, they finally gave up their last request and turned into vengeful death.

Yuren doesn't hate it as much as the spirits, but he has always had an attitude towards the Church of Divine Grace that the more you die, the better, so she is happy to see it happen. Charlotte and Judy killed the people of the Church of Grace purely to vent their personal anger, and for Julien, the more people who died in the Church of Grace, the better it would be for him, so it was a win-win situation. Otherwise, there would be no way for him to be so compatible with this group of geists.

"Apologize immediately!!Apologize in front of Holy Mana!!"

It was the cardinal again, at this moment he took half a step forward, and he was already standing side by side with the old bishop, and the cardinal was already blushing at this time, and his hand was trembling when he raised his hand.

"That holy lord is something you can insult! you wicked madman!!"

"That's right! Evil one, you're not qualified to say such things!!"

"Shut up and get out of this holy church!!"

Perhaps it was because the anger had made them forget their fears, and the believers stood up bravely at the moment, waving their fists at Yuren and shouting angrily. For a while, the scene boiled over, and it seemed to be a little out of control.

And to this, Yu Lian's reaction was very simple.

He reached out and grabbed the hilt of his sword, pulled it out slightly, and then slammed it inward.

The roar stopped abruptly.

The cardinal, who was standing beside the old bishop, opened his mouth wide in surprise, raised his hands, and looked at his body. And at his neck, a subtle red line spread to the sides, and at this time, the cardinal seemed to notice something, and he subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to do something. But as soon as his hands touched his head, his head fell off his neck and rolled to the ground like a ball.

Bright red blood gushed out like a fountain and flew through the air.

Behind Yuren, the indignant believers were not able to escape the catastrophe, and their bodies slid diagonally to the ground as if they had been cut by some invisible blade, and the originally hard wall behind them was accompanied by a slight cracking sound, and a slanted scar appeared.

For a time, blood and screams formed the main theme of the church.

"One, two, three, four, five, six......... Fifteen believers, one cardinal, will give you a twenty-percent discount, one hundred thousand each, and now a total of nine and a half million gold coins. ”

Yuren's right hand still slid gently over the hilt of his sword, as if he had done nothing, and looked at the old bishop with a smile.

"Now, you have two choices, are you going to give it to me, or do I take it myself after I kill you all?" Although Judy and Charlotte may complain that I don't take their feelings into account, but there is no way, it is only right to repay the debt, isn't it? If it is not enough, then there is no way, I have to go to the Bishop to see if the Holy Bishop can afford to pay for this moral loss, including you. ”

"Kate. ”

Hearing this, the old bishop finally spoke, he stretched out his hand to beckon a cardinal, and then spoke bitterly.

"Go to the warehouse, get the compensation, a total of ...... Nine and a half million gold coins. ”

"Yes...... His Holiness the Archbishop. ”

Hearing the old bishop's order, the cardinal's face turned pale, he clenched his teeth, glanced at Yulian angrily, and then quickly turned around and walked to the inner court. After a while, the cardinal came out again, carefully holding a heavy box of precious stones in his hand, and the old bishop reached out to take it, opened it and examined it, and then let out a long sigh, and then walked to Yulian's side.

"Lord Yuren, these are a hundred diamonds, each worth a hundred thousand ......... I guess that's enough. ”

"Not bad, not bad. ”

Yulian opened the box, took one of the diamonds, and carefully observed the light in front of him, then nodded with a satisfied smile. Then, he took the box, smiled and shrugged at the crowd.

"Then, now we are both human and financial, I will not take this matter to heart, from now on, this matter will be written off. Don't worry, I've always been talkative. However, I really didn't expect that with 10 million gold coins, you really have so much money, I just said it so casually......... It seems that the church is indeed the most profitable business. So, okay guys, the deal is done, and I wish you all a nice night. ”

As he spoke, You Lian held the box in one hand, bowed elegantly to everyone, and then turned to leave.

It wasn't until his figure disappeared completely that everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and some even touched their necks with palpitations, as if to confirm that their heads were still obediently staying where they should be. It was only then that the old bishop withdrew his gaze, then sighed, and then immediately became serious.

"What are you doing in a daze! Treat the injured immediately!!"

Not to mention how chaotic the Church of Grace was after that, Yuren was in a much better mood after receiving the compensation, so he quickly returned to the Mage's Tower, and then met Larry Bod, who happened to be away.

"Lord Yuren, you're finally back. ”

Seeing Yuren return, Old Master Larry Bode smiled, and then looked curiously at the exquisite box in Yuren's hand.

"Is this ............?"

"I ask the Church of Holy Grace for a little compensation for moral damages. ”

Julien replied with a smile, then he looked at Larry Bod, shrugging his shoulders.

"After all, it's my own business, and it's not good to trouble you, so in the end, I plan to solve it myself. ”

"This ............"

Hearing this, Larry Bod's smile was a little reluctant, and he couldn't help but subconsciously glance out the window -- fortunately, the representative building of the Church of Holy Grace was still standing there, not a pile of ruins, and there was no missing corner......... It seems that what this adult said is indeed true, and he is really in a good mood.

"By the way, what are you looking for me?"

"That's right, Lady Yuren. ”

Hearing Yuren's inquiry, Larry Bode immediately restrained the smile on his face and said with a serious expression.

"Just now, I have received news from the palace, Your Majesty he ..............."

Hearing Larry Bod's words, Yuren raised his eyebrows, and then, after a moment's thought, nodded.

"I see, next is my problem. ”

"Then I'll leave it to you, Lord Yuren. ”

When Julien returned to his room, Offariel had already packed his clothes and sat calmly on the balcony, quietly overlooking the night view of the royal city. Hearing the sound of the door, she turned her head, and then smiled embarrassedly at Youlian. If it weren't for her two slightly red and swollen eyes, I'm afraid no one would have noticed anything unusual about her.

"You're back, Lord Yuren. ”

Ofaril said, but his gaze naturally fell on the box that Yuren was holding.

"What is this?"

Her questions are the same as Larry Bod's.

"I ask the Church of Holy Grace for a little compensation for moral damages. ”

Yu Lian's answer was also unchanged, and after speaking, he patted the box with a smile.

"This time, you don't have to worry about the finances of the Twilight Forest anymore. ”

"How many?"

Hearing this, Offariel's curiosity was also aroused.

"About 10 million, the Church of Grace is richer than I thought. ”

"Ten Million ............"

Hearing this, even if Ofaril was not in a good mood at the moment, her eyes widened in surprise, and she stared at the jewel box in disbelief—in fact, she had been calculating how much the box would fill the twilight forest if it were taken out and sold.

"My lord, may you allow me to ask, how did you get this money?"

"It's a small thing, but it's not enough to worry about. ”

“............ You know I didn't want to hear that. ”

"Modesty is a traditional virtue of the aristocracy, Miss O'Faryl. ”

Yulian tapped lightly on the table.

"Do you think I'm the kind of good deed person who spreads my own business everywhere?"

yes, of course you're not, and until now, I don't know what happened to you.

Ofariel glared at Yuren angrily, and frankly, Yuren really didn't mention anything about herself, and speaking of which, she didn't know anything about Yuren.

"Now, though, that's not the problem. In fact, I just got the news from Larry Bod. ”

At this, Yuren paused, and then he looked at Ofaril.

"His Majesty the King has ordered me to attend tomorrow's meeting......... So, Miss O'Faryl, what are your plans, do you want to come with me?"

Hearing this, Ofaril's originally calm face changed slightly, and she looked at Yulian quietly, and did not answer for a long time.

Minutes and seconds passed.

Eventually, Ofariel nodded slowly but firmly.

"I'll go with you, Lord Yuren. ”

"So, you've made your decision?"

"Yes, sir. ”

Ofaryl said, placing her hands on her chest, her face resolute.

"It was my decision. ”
