Chapter 83: The Priest Visits

There was a knock on the door. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Please come in," Payne said.

The person who came was the commissioner of the liaison office, "Someone is looking for you, Mr. DiCaprio." ”

"Looking for me?"

"Yes, it seems, the people of the Holy See. ”

Payne was stunned when he heard this, frowned and thought for a moment, "Okay, where are the people?"

"Right at the reception, if it's convenient, I can take you there right now. The commissioner said.

In the room at the reception, Payne saw a balding man in clerical robes, about fifty years old, but his eyes looked like he was only twenty years old.

"Hello," Payne said first, "you're looking for me?"

"Yes, you may be seated. The man pointed to the chair across the table and said, "By the way, can you get people to stop disturbing us?" and he looked at the commissioner standing in the doorway.

"Of course," the commissioner said with a smile, and closed the door with his hand.

"I'm the priest of Prion Cathedral, you can call me Neyan," Neyan looked at Payne across the street, "I'm here to invite you to join the Holy See of Light by the Bishop's dictation. ”

"Joining the Holy See?" Payne was slightly shocked, thinking to himself, his fame would not affect the Holy See, right?

"Yes," said Neyan, "and at the behest of the Bishop, that is, you don't have to go through layers of rigorous screening,......。 ”

Payne watched the priest foaming at the mouth, he admired the other party's eloquence, as if he didn't join the Holy See, and this life was about to be ruined.

Of course, he knew how difficult it was to join the Holy See, and to be directly favored by the bishop was no less likely than winning the jackpot.

It was not for nothing that those strong men would flock to the Holy See, and Payne first thought of the pair of wings that pulled the wind.

Although he doesn't know what this does to the wings other than pulling the wind, one thing is for sure, it's definitely not an ornament.

And the best way to get it seems that only the Holy See can give it. That is, the Holy See holds some mysterious and powerful magic that can help those who need it to get it. Right...... , Payne thought, that was mysterious magic, and it couldn't be a gods-given.

And I have to admit that the power of the Holy See is indeed very huge, so big that it seems to have no boundary, and even the lowest combat power of the Holy Light Army, the Holy Light Knight, is much stronger than ordinary knights.

Knights like Hervey are rare in the kingdom, but they are the lowest level of existence in the Holy Light Army, they are like mass production, a regiment of more than 500 Holy Light Knights, but the Holy Light Army has hundreds of such knights.

Penn thought that if he was just blindly pursuing power, the Holy See would undoubtedly be the best choice, but he knew exactly what he needed. -- It's freedom, to live unfettered in this world, and that's what I really need.

The mercenary group will not be able to give itself freedom, as will the knights of the Marquis's Court, as well as the Holy See, and the latter will be more restrained.

It's like a tamed beast that is kept in a cage when not in use, and only released when it's in use, and it's not necessarily more comfortable when it comes out than in a cage.

So no matter how fanciful the other party says, he will not join the Holy See, at least not now.

After Nai An finished speaking confidently, he was rejected by the other party's words, as a priest for more than 20 years, it was the first time he had experienced this kind of thing, and he had never even heard of it before.

But that's what happened.

Payne looked at the back of the departing priest, and there was no trace of loss in his heart, but he was a lot more relaxed. He knew that a bishop would not give an invitation for no reason, and recalling the feeling of being watched, Payne immediately thought of a possibility, that the other party was looking at him.

And the bishop took a fancy to his extraordinary abilities.

If that's the case, then you can't go.

Once the secrets on the body are discovered by these magic sticks, it is very likely that they will be sliced and studied by the other party. -- It was definitely a tragic end.

Looking at the vanishing back of the priest, Payne thought, it's the turn of the Bounty Guild next, right?

It's really hard to refuse if it's a door-to-door invitation from the Bounty Guild, but if the other party can accept his own conditions, let Roy join the guild with him, and waive all the additional conditions, it's not that he can't consider joining now.

......

In a building in Kurstedburg, three high-ranking members of the Bounty Guild gathered, and their conversation was about Payne.

"It was a surprise to hear that DiCaprio refused to play for the Golden Sail family. Zoe said. This person was one of the people who questioned Payne.

"Your information is out of date, Zoe," Cohen paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, bowing his head, "and he refused not only to serve the nobles, but also to the Holy See. ”

"What!" Zoe looked shocked.

"Cohen is right, this information has been confirmed. "Butuo has confirmed the authenticity and reliability of this information.

"And do we have a chance?" said Zoe.

"What do you say?" said Butuo, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Thinking about our previous attitude towards him, he has already thanked the gods for not bothering us." ”

"Not necessarily," Cohen paused and looked at Butuo, "Don't forget, he was Hervey's servant before, and judging from the current situation, we still have hope of competing with the mercenary group." ”

"How so?" asked Butuo.

"Detailed information about him is estimated to be on the way," Cohen said, "and I've sent a Black Hawk message to Miller and will receive a response in three days at the latest, and I think Miller will give an accurate message." ”

"And what's next?" Zoe said, "Which of the three of us is going to find him?" ”

"Neither," Cohen smiled, "Mayo is the best candidate." ”

......

After lunch, three wagons stopped at the door of the mercenary battalion liaison office. After Payne handed over to the mercenary group, he drove out of the city with Roy and Hawke.

As soon as the thirteen men arrived at the gate of the city in three carriages, they were stopped by the guards.

All carriages and people entering and leaving Kurstedburg had to be inspected by guards, especially in winter.

"What's on the cart?" asked a guard in steel armor armed with a spear.

"It's a corpse. Hawke said with a smile.

"Corpses?" the guard, who only showed his eyes, paused for a moment, "Open, we're going to check." ”

Hawke didn't dare to cause trouble, and opened the cover very cooperatively, and in the mist emitted by saltpeter, three corpses appeared.

The guard's pupils shrank sharply. Curse in your heart, damn it!

Have you ever seen a corpse with its skull already open, but still with its eyes open?

"Get out of the car!" the guard angrily grabbed Hawke by the collar and dragged him out of the car, then yelled, "Get out of here!"
