(Santa Secca Tower)

The Saintess sat on a chair and played a game of picking up balls with Elanhi.

The saint looked at the spiritless Elanhi and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Is Ellanch abandoned?"

"Didn't you say that? Mr. Anka will be back when he is done, and Mr. Anka will not lie. ”

"Okay!"

At this time, the nun stood at the door and said, "Your Excellency, all the nobles are already waiting in the conference room. ”

"Okay, I'll go."

After saying that, the holy woman stroked Elanhi and said, "You go to sleep now!" I'm going to work. ”

After hearing this, Alan Xi had no choice but to lie on the bed with his tail hanging down, looking at the holy woman and whispering, "Good night." ”

The saint smiled slightly and walked up to the nun and said, "Please take care of this child before I return!" ”

The nun fell to one knee and said, "Thank you very much for trusting me. ”

Thirteen of the most important Santa Seca nobles gathered in the conference room, and the atmosphere in the room was tense to zero, and these nobles had just learned of the death of those who had tried to sneak up on the Holy Maiden.

The nobles had just entered the gate and saw the corpses hanging from the city gate, so they knew their situation very well, and some of them were nervous and cold sweating and kept hoping that the paladins would open the doors and windows, or allow them to go out to breathe.

But the paladins won't allow it, so it's up to the nuns to make them more spiritual.

The most nervous of them all was the representative of the Assassin family, who was already trembling nervously in the chair in the corner after hearing that the members of the clan were directly involved in the assassination of the Holy Maiden.

One of the representatives of the Chamber of Commerce put his hand on his shoulder and said, "Relax, we haven't done anything wrong. ”

"You are a transcontinental organization, and the saintess can't control you, what are you talking about here."

After a while, the saintess walked up to the high platform and looked at the silent crowd in the audience.

Everyone was stunned for a moment when they saw that the holy woman was not wearing a veil, but after seeing the paladins surrounding her, they confirmed that the other party was indeed a holy woman.

"Relax and I won't criticize anyone."

After everyone looked at each other, the representative of the transportation department, who finally had no sense of existence, stood up and bowed and asked, "May I ask if the Holy Maiden is looking for us for something?" ”

"I've heard that the Golden City of the Word has been overrun by demons."

Facing the silence of the people, the holy woman sighed and said, "Why didn't anyone come to tell me at that time? ”

The representative of the transportation department said: "At that time, the assassins and demons were in cahoots, and we were also afraid that we would be assassinated, so we ......."

The Assassin was sweating profusely and wanted to refute it, but because there were indeed members of the tribe who did things for the demons, he couldn't refute it at all.

Seeing that the Assassin representatives did not say a word, the other representatives attacked him one after another, preparing to put all the charges on the heads of the Assassins.

The paladin tapped his sword to the ground and shouted, "Silence! ”

The Lady then slowly stepped down from the stage to bring the Assassin representative to the stage.

The Holy Maiden asked, "Are you willing to continue to serve the Light now?" ”

The dazed representative looked at the smiling saint and nodded lightly.

The saint asked, "How many more do you need?" ”

"Now I have two complete tribes left in my hands, most of them are working for demons in the Golden City of Sacred Words, and some of them have left the organization."

"Then please form them into a tribe, and then bring them to me tomorrow."

The Assassin representative bowed and said, "Thank you very much. ”

This result apparently did not displease the other delegates with their angry demands to punish the Assassin family.

The Holy Maiden suddenly said: "Calm down, everyone, now that all the representatives in the Golden City of the Divine Word have been replaced by demons, then I hope that the City of the Great Tower can be turned into a second political center, so I hope that you can elect a new representative now, relying on the new capital, we will one day retake the Golden City of the Holy Word." ”

The representative of the Ministry of Communications said: "Then it is up to everyone here to elect five new representatives, and the position of the Pope must be held by the Holy Maiden!" ”

As soon as his proposal was launched, it aroused the support of others, and the holy woman shook her head and said: "I have not done that kind of work directly, I will only preach and heal, it is better to leave the position of the Pope to the Church, and I will announce the candidates when the time comes." ”

"Let's go back and rest for a while!"

The delegates obviously still had some questions, and they were still a little reluctant to cast puzzled glances at the saint.

The saint calmly placed her hand on the shoulder of the Assassin representative in front of her, who jerked back and threw an unnatural smile at the representatives.

The crowd saluted the saint and left, while the Assassin representative slowly stepped back and asked, "My lord, may I go?" ”

"I have something to explain."

"What is it?"

"Do you know how our naval forces are doing?"

"It's been destroyed by demons."

A hint of melancholy flashed on the saint's face, but it quickly dissipated and she said to him, "I don't have any problems, goodbye!" ”

Then the Holy Maiden stood in front of the paladin guard and said, "I hope you can now go and inform the Northern Academy and the Southern Dockyard to build a ship that can withstand shock and fire." ”

The guard's puzzled expression appeared on his face as he looked at the saint.

"Don't think it's useless," said the Holy Maiden, "Kahlan has explored the New World and we can't explore it because of the destruction of our ships, we must make stronger ships before Kahlan makes stronger ships and completely dominates the seas, only then can we go further." ”

As she spoke, the Holy Maiden's voice lowered and said, "Only then can we transfer more Sanseka people to the new continent that we will discover later when the end comes." ”

(Caldara)

Karn was sitting on his throne looking at the list in his hand, and the nobles below were all afraid to say a word.

Karn touched his left eye, wounded by a dark arrow, and looked up at the general hanging outside the door intent on rebellion.

Karn lowered his voice and said, "Please leave the army in your hands completely in my hands, and I will ensure that you can live very safely in your old age." ”

All the nobles breathed a sigh of relief and decisively surrendered their army and fortress, after all, they were all old and did not want to deal with the cruel Karn.

Moreover, Karn came back all the way back, and Karn dealt with all those who disobeyed him in various insidious ways, which caused the nobles to give up the idea of being enemies of him and decide to completely obey him in exchange for the safety of their families.

"You are still very knowledgeable about current affairs, now please allow my guards to send you back!"

After that, Karn's personal guard found Karn and asked, "May I ask your majesty, now that the country has just undergone a change, and you have dealt with so many nobles, what should you do in the future?" ”

"I'm still young, and we've got a lot of wealth from the Golden City and the nobility this time, and we can use it for the academy, medical care, and selection institutions."

"But wouldn't that anger the nobles who had already given in?"

"We can take our time, first let the children of the nobles go to the academy, and if the response is good, let the children of the officers go to the academy, and then we must send the merchant families who support us in, and we must stop those nobles who want to go abroad to study in other countries, I will not allow them to collude with our enemies."

"Your Majesty, what should we do if we have so many enemies!"

"I want to form an alliance with Kahlan to form a flank attack on Sansekka."

"But they have betrayed their allies and in recent years have been contemptuous of other countries because they have seized an overseas colony."

"But Carders and we still have a national enmity ......"

"Let's go to Kahlan for now! If not, you're looking for Carders. ”

(Forest)

Ankka flipped over and watched the sun slowly rise in front of him, leaning wearily against the tree.

"Looks like you haven't slept well all night," Kaduir said. ”

"I'm a little worried about Elanhi."

Ankh then looked at the list in his hand and said, "It's time to work!" ”

"It is impossible to end the apocalypse by killing all the powerful demons that appear in the human world. ”

"Why?"

"Because the end will definitely happen, and even if you kill all the demons, there will be fallen humans to cause the end."

"Then I'll have to do it."

"Do you know where they are?"

After hearing this, Ankha took out a compass and said, "This is what the man gave me before I left, saying that I could find the demon." ”

Ankka kept her eyes on the compass and noticed that it had been spinning since it was opened.

Ankh held it up in the air and said, "Is it broken? ”

At this time, Kajudil said, "Below. ”

Ankka looked under the tree and found that at some point, there were a large number of monsters gathered under the tree.

Ankka saw that there were not too many of them, raised his magic sword and jumped down, quickly destroying them.

Ankh looked at the monster in front of him and asked, "Are these the monsters left behind in the city?" ”

Ankh picked up the flesh of one of the humanoid monster corpses and said, "What is this?" ”

I saw that the skin of the flesh that Ankka picked up had a burning ring mark on it.

Kajudil said, "This guy must have come to find that flying meat ball, these are just the vanguards. ”

"Who is he?"

"It's a powerful demonic warlord in hell known as the Wind of Fire."

"Let's go find him!"

"Why?"

"We're going to kill all the demons anyway, isn't it just right to send them to the door this time?"

Kajudil whispered, "It's you, not us. ”

Ankka then followed the compass's guidance out of the forest.

Several paladins were found in Anka, a station near the forest.

"Stop!"

After being stopped by the paladin, Anka took out some of the items that the Holy Maiden had given him, and the paladin hesitated for a moment when he saw this, but quickly recognized that this was the holy object given by the Holy Maiden.

"What are you doing here?"

"Kill the demons."

"You seem to have succeeded, we only came here to investigate when we observed explosions and skyrocketing flames here."

"Can you please go to the city of the Great Tower to help me bring a letter to the Holy Maiden?"

"My pleasure, sir."

Ankh then handed them two letters, and after borrowing a horse, he prepared to follow the compass to guide him away.

"Aren't you going with us?"

"I have something important to do."

After that, everyone didn't say anything and quickly separated.
