Chapter 229: Lady Maya
"In battles below level 3, there are great differences in individuality and abilities, so the Templars are required to be more comprehensive and perfect.
In addition to strength and speed, there are several other indicators, such as the ability to defend against psychic attacks, etc.
In short, low-level Templars cannot be easily defeated by their opponents, even if they cannot win every battle.
And when it comes to the fourth level and above, everyone has their own unique skills, otherwise how to distinguish the superior from the inferior when the basic attributes can't open the gap.
The vast majority of high-level awakened people only realize this power that belongs to them when they cross the threshold of level three to four.
But now it seems that as long as you improve this ability of yours step by step and master it, even I will be afraid of it at that time. ”
Philip nodded in understanding, and then asked, "What is the matter with Odd's abilities?" ”
Leonardo smiled, "That's the bloodline ability of their Simon family, which was once famous inside the Southern Temple.
No one knows the secret inside, but if he is promoted to a high level, he will create a low-temperature field during the battle, and if he stays in it for too long, he will even be frozen into an ice sculpture.
It's a pity that the Simon family has declined, and that Ode's talent is also average, and the level is too low, otherwise you will definitely not have the ability to win him. ”
"Are there many people with abilities like him?" this is what Philip is really interested in, Odd and Leonardo's abilities are very special, as if opening a new door for him, completely different from the Awakened he has been in contact with before.
It also made him realize that the system of the Awakened within the temple was far more complex than that cultivated in the army.
"Of course, the most mainstream is the knight with the ability to enhance basic attributes, but every paladin and even the holy knight has its own secrets.
Even in the eyes of ordinary people, they are like miracles, which cannot be explained by conventional science, but they do happen.
You know, we are the Temple. Leonardo explained.
"Then there are no high-end knights with pure attribute enhancements?" Philip was a little worried about his future.
Leonardo's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of heat and adoration, and he said in a respectful tone: "Of course." There are many paladins in the whole continent, and there are dozens of holy knights, but over the years, there have always been only eight holy knights directly under the holy domain.
Among these eight men, there may be a turnover of personnel, and there will always be a fluctuation in the rankings.
But Lord Jason Wilson is recognized as the strongest and deservedly strongest, and there is no one.
He doesn't have any special abilities, and he completely relies on his overwhelming strength and speed to crush all challengers, and he has not tasted defeat so far.
Rumor has it that he has crossed that boundary, awakened at the sixth level, and become the closest god-like being, the most powerful contender for the next pope.
On top of that, he's from the Ward Clan, just like you and me. ”
Philip's eyes lit up and he asked, "Can a Templar be a pope too?"
Leonardo looked at Philip with strange eyes, until he was confused, and then said faintly: "Who told you that knights can't be popes?"
Philip just wanted to speak, but he didn't make any sound after opening his mouth for a long time, and he didn't know how to explain.
Perhaps influenced by his previous life, as soon as he mentioned words like pope, he quickly conjured up images of a weak and withered body, wearing an empty robe, holding a scepter, or a kind face, or a hypocritical and cunning old man.
"Isn't the Pope civilian?" he muttered inwardly.
Leonardo glared at him angrily before he said, "It seems that you really don't know anything about the temple, and the questions you ask are idiotic enough to make any intermediate seminary student laugh out of his teeth."
In the long history of the Temple's evolution, at least seventy percent of popes have been promoted by Holy Knights.
Especially in the early stage of growth, when various denominations waged wars that lasted for thousands of years, do you think that the pagans can be converted just by the teachings of the archbishops?
Or will those unruly and murderous high-ranking knights willingly bow down to a weak priest?
Only by using the sword and blood to make those enemies feel awe, and lose all faith in resistance, will they have the patience to sit down and listen to the gospel of Gaia, the mother goddess of the earth.
Your theological background is surprisingly poor, and the next task I have given you is to memorize all the texts on this list.
Otherwise, when you come to Southern Theological Seminary, you will be disgraced if you say that I am a student. ”
It's over, he was scolded, this is the first time Philip has seen Leonardo so angry, so he had to bow his head obediently and look humble.
It's just that before he went out, he suddenly said for some reason: "Teacher, hasn't there been a saint in the history of the temple who has been a pope?"
In exchange for a powerful reply from the enraged Paladin, "Get out!" and a kick in the ass.
Philip really rolled over, scolding while rolling, at least Leonardo's reaction is much more vivid now, not at all like the hypocritical and blunt face he had at the beginning.
It wasn't until he walked out of the door and looked at the familiar decorations around him that he realized, isn't this my home, why should I roll?
But it's okay, this can be regarded as a legitimate reason, he can be a fair pickle, he will be a frequent visitor to the seminary in the future, at least now he is famous, and no one like Hank dares to stare at him without his own strength.
Fortunately, this person's vision is not good, he only knows that he is guarding the dry Lin Yun, and he ignores the resentful eyes of the girls around him.
On the western coast of the Wardkud Empire, one of the western neighbors of the Wardsman Empire, there is a city of entertainment surrounded by desert but famous for its gambling, musicals, and red-light districts.
At this moment, in the largest VIP room of the "Twin Stars", a palatial entertainment hotel in the center of Chik City, a woman who looks to be about 30 years old is sitting elegantly in front of the window, watching the bustling tourists outside.
There was a cup of bitter coffee in front of her, but the woman just stirred it with a spoon until it no longer emitted a trace of heat, and she didn't take a sip.
The most strange thing is that even in the room, the woman is wrapped in a gorgeous headscarf and refuses to give her hair a free respite.
"Miss, shall I give you another cup of hot one?" Behind the woman stood a majestic man, more than 2.30 meters tall, with gray and mottled hair, and furrows on his face, he looked quite old, but his skin was slightly blue.
Despite his burly figure and imposing imposingness, the man was very respectful in front of this woman, as if he was afraid of upsetting her.
The woman shook her head, sighed, and withdrew her gaze from the window.
This makes people see her appearance clearly, not very beautiful, but she has a unique charm, like a witch who does not eat fireworks in the world.
In particular, the facial features are very three-dimensional, the eye sockets are deep-set, the eyebrows are so thin that they are almost invisible, the bridge of the nose is thin and high, and the lips are very thin.
"I said it, don't call me Miss, call me the head of the regiment. What did the adult say?" the woman spoke, her voice a little hoarse, but it sounded good, as if she was gently brushing her scalp with her fingernails.
"Again, dormant for the time being, waiting for the right moment, I suspect that lowly fellow Harris did not report to the Lord at all.
It's been a few months, and not even a word has changed, just urging to ask for this quarter's income. The man grumbled with some anger.
The woman looked out the window again, and said for a long time, "There is no difference. ”
"But miss, no, Captain. Since the death of Captain Batyr, our losses have been too great, and the temples of the three empires have attacked us openly and secretly, and most of the assets on the surface have been absorbed.
It's hard for us to survive like this, and what else to give to that vampire. The man complained.
"Shut up! Don't say that word, my father is not dead and is not dead, he is just missing and will come back sooner or later. The woman was a little excited, and her silver eyes looked at the giant man coldly.
"I beg your pardon, Commander. ”
The giant Ham Bell hurriedly bowed down, not daring to look directly into those eyes, his huge size was extremely inconsistent with his humble movements, and it looked a little funny.
"Well, Uncle Bell, there are no outsiders here, you don't have to do that. The woman stood up and lifted the giant man up.
"Since we can't count on that lord, we will take revenge ourselves. It's very simple, isn't it, that's what we should do, and that's the only thing we're good at. The woman looked at the giant man and said, but her eyes were not focused, more like she was talking to herself.
"I'm going out for a while, and I'll leave it to you. ”
"But it's too dangerous there, please let me follow you. "The giant man is in a hurry.
"It's not a place you can go there, your racial profile is too obvious. And Gokan City is not a place where thieves can go wild, and if we don't get closer, we will all become nutrients from nature and be buried deep underground.
I can only trust you now, can you help me keep this place?"
The giant man wanted to persuade again, but was stopped by the woman, so he had to nod yes.
The woman put on her trench coat and came out onto the bustling street, glancing back at the tall figure in the high glass window.
Who would have thought that the biggest gold nest in this all-Chek city is the headquarters of the Red Skull Thieves who make all countries hate and gnash their teeth.
Who would have thought that this graceful and elegant woman was the leader of the feared but very interested "Pretender" organization, Lady Maya.
A woman in a gray hood came up and whispered, "Where are you going, ma'am?"
The woman replied, "Go to the city of Wardsman Empire and call Rama and the others." Also, call me the head of the regiment in the future. ”
"Yes, Captain. The woman in the hood replied, helping her to disappear into the weaving stream.
