Chapter 0164: Molière's Findings
Just as Nock began to carry out the next tempering plan against Mark, Molière also held an investigation report and was silent alone.
This is an investigative report on Nock Lane and Leo Gareth.
According to the report, in the village of Netan, the domain of Viscount Anos Brad, under the jurisdiction of the city of Seine in the northern Norman principality, there was indeed a wandering priest named Ryan and his knight Gareth who stayed.
The duo turned the little-known village of Tarn into a well-known tourist and commercial village near the Seine.
The renovated village pattern is refreshing, and the church in the village is even more popular with the ladies in the city.
However, just after the two went missing, the economy of the village of Tarn plummeted.
First, there was an inexplicable fire in the tavern in the village, and the tavern proprietress and her daughter mysteriously disappeared.
Losing the Tavern Management Adventurer quest, the adventurers are lost one after another.
Even though the lord Viscount Bled and the village chief tried their best to re-establish a building for adventurers and wanted to re-operate the business that the adventurers' guild had taken over the mission, the adventurers' union in Seine City refused to grant them the cooperation qualifications.
The Seine City Adventurers' Guild also openly said that the cooperation qualification was given to the "Marcina's Tavern", not the village of Tarn.
Since the tavern and its owner are gone, the qualification must be withdrawn.
The village of Tarn, which has lost the qualification to take on the adventurer's mission, naturally can't keep the adventurers.
Except for the occasional adventurer who needs to stay overnight and repair, adventurers no longer gather and stay in Tarn Village, causing the prosperity of Tarn Village to drop by half.
The church in Tarn lost Father Lane, and the nobles of the city no longer came to Tarn, even though Viscount Brad and the village chief invited a priest from Seine to settle in the church in Tarn.
Even the nearby villagers are reluctant to go to the village of Tarn to pray.
And from this is just a report on the village of Tarn.
The report also includes a report from the city of Seine.
It says that after the disappearance of Father Lane. In addition to retaining his viscount's title and fief, all of Viscount Bled's positions in the city lord's mansion were dismissed by the city lord and became an idle nobleman.
Coupled with the fact that Viscount Brad's most lucrative village of Tarn had plummeted, the Viscount had to disband his personal guard to reduce expenses.
Interestingly, after that, Viscount Brad and the second son of the city lord, Box, were in frequent contact, and there was a faint tendency to be co-opted by Box.
It was also during that time that the "Magina's Tavern" in the village of Tarn caught fire inexplicably, and the proprietress and her daughter mysteriously disappeared.
The preliminary judgment of the informant newspaper is that it may be that in order to avenge the losses he had suffered in the "Magina's Tavern" before, Viscount Brad sent someone to burn down the tavern.
As for the truth, there is no evidence in the tip.
The informant also mentioned that there are two things that are strange.
One of the things was: Viscount Brad's wife died in childbirth, but the child was forcibly taken by his wife's maiden family, the Lyman family.
In addition, the Lyman family also took a woman and her child from the village of Tarn, and it is said that they will go to the Lyman family to be the nurse of the viscountess's child.
For this reason, Viscount Brad lost his temper for a long time, but because he lost power, he was helpless.
Another thing is even more strange, according to the source, the Holy See's envoy once came to the city of Seine, and after a trip with Father Wacaun, he returned with a black face.
Then he scolded the bishop of Seine City severely, and injured a Bruce priest of the Seine City Church, and then flew away on a flying dragon in a rage.
Father Bruce, who was wounded, was Father Wakarn's teacher.
According to the report, Father Bruce had recovered from his injuries and left the Seine with Father Vacaan and went south along the Seine.
Rumor has it that Father Bruce is taking Father Wakarn back to the Holy Court for an examination.
The reason why the report mentions these two things is that it is said that in the first incident, there is the shadow of Father Lane. The second thing is that Father Lane and Father Wakarn have a good relationship.
At the end of the report, it was reported that they had started from the village of Tarn and headed towards the snowfield mentioned by Nok, and searched all the way, but did not find the missing luggage mentioned by Nock Lane.
But in the so-called snow field, a group of snow wolf pack corpses with no scars and relatively intact corpses were indeed found.
He was preparing to head south to investigate the corpses and survivors of the caravan that Nock had claimed.
This is the result of the investigation that Molière obtained from the northern part of the kingdom.
As for the black market, Molière also collected a little bit of news in the Lionheart Kingdom by way of a bounty.
Three years ago, the Kingdom of Lionheart did have a church built in a monastery.
But because the young priest was suppressed by the kingdom and became a wanted criminal of the Natural Church.
Moreover, there are various rumors that this Father Nock Lane has obtained the ancient treasure, and the various forces of the Lionheart Kingdom are hunting him down.
But three years ago, the Nock Lane and a nobleman were barricaded in the High Court of the Lionheart Kingdom, crippled, and then taken away by the Queen, who later announced their disappearance.
Some people suspect that this Nock Lane was secretly imprisoned by the Queen, and the royal family of the Lionheart Kingdom wanted to keep the treasure alone.
There is also speculation that this Nock Lane has lost his usefulness and was secretly executed. The proof is that the Abbey of Our Lady, which originally belonged to Nock Lane, was taken over and demolished by the royal family with the intention of building a new church of nature!
However, the strange thing is that there are rumors in the black market, someone has seen Nock Lane in the black market, saying that Nock Lane escaped the Lionheart Kingdom with the help of the black market's teleportation array, but the source of the rumor can no longer be confirmed, so the truth of this news cannot be confirmed.
This is the intelligence that Molière gathered from the black market.
With the two investigation reports in hand, the credibility of Nock Lane's words has been increased by eight points.
The remaining two points will be confirmed by Molière himself.
However, what puzzled Molière was that the report mentioned in passing that Father Lane of the village of Tarn, nicknamed "Father Light and Dark", was a priest who was sunny on the surface, but in fact had some darkness on the inside.
This is a bit inconsistent with the Nock Lane he saw.
Although the little fox is a bit cunning, it is indeed too much to say that he has a dark heart.
After all, those who can use the "Holy Light Redemption" must be compassionate to understand the mysteries.
How can a person with a dark heart learn this exquisite magic technique of helping the world and saving people.
Unfortunately, Molière did not know that his disciple Mark had been calculated by Nock Lane.
Otherwise, he would certainly not think like that.
said that after Mark was expelled by the "Violet" team, other teams frequently threw olive branches to him.
Regardless of Mark's relationship with Violet, his pastoral profession is the most popular profession.
Therefore, even if there is something wrong with itself, the other adventure teams think it is acceptable.
It's a pity that they underestimate the vanity of a person.
Mark was originally the only pastor in Maple Town, and the teacher was the only priest.
Coupled with the fact that the teacher Molière is often out and about, basically the services that Maple Town needs are all done by Mark.
He has always been the one who is respected, and at the same time, he is the one who is valued by his teachers.
But after Nock and the two came, the people in Maple Town talked about Nock and the two.
This made him feel very uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
But Nock and Leo had put on a posture that you don't say anything, just obey orders.
It was a hard blow to Mark's confidence.
The first adventure mission was the silver level, and it can be said that it almost destroyed Mark's self-confidence.
But he was lucky enough to complete the task and catch the cub.
Therefore, even if Nock is against it, he has to hand over the cub to complete the task.
It's not for the three hundred gold coins that the mission reward is, but to let others know how good he is.
His first mission was the Silver level, and he successfully completed it! He's a genius!
Even his friends around him thought he was a peerless genius.
It's just that on weekdays, Father Molière asked him to deal with some trivial things, so that his talents were buried.
Therefore, at the instigation of his friends, he had the ambition to seize the leadership of the "Violet".
Who lets, Jessica is his woman!
But he didn't expect that Jessica, a woman who was short-sighted, would actually turn her face against him for a small bronze adventure team.
He vowed to bring out a team of silver or even gold-level adventurers and slap the woman in the face.
Therefore, in the face of those adventurers who extended an olive branch, Mark put forward very harsh conditions.
Not to mention the high salary, but also the command of the team.
This directly discouraged many teams from inviting Mark.
Let someone who doesn't know the abilities of the team members command the team, they are crazy to do that!
Of course, there are also teams that want to gamble.
Who gave Mark the score of completing two Silver missions!
Therefore, there was a bronze team that had just been promoted from Black Iron and accepted Mark's terms.
Anyway, they were just a group of black iron level who just wanted to make money, but luckily, they picked up a bronze task with low difficulty and advanced.
So, as long as they can make money, they don't care who is in charge.
What's more, it's just command, not leadership, and the captain of the team is still their man.
However, when Mark joins with a group of younger brothers, they don't think so.
As soon as this group of sycophants joined the team, they immediately took over.
Instruct the original members to do this and that, and then pick up the difficult tasks for them to take on on their own initiatives.
The original captain was reluctant to take it, and was surrounded and scolded by them.
said that their eldest brother Mark condescended to join their broken team, not to promote them, so that the original team members would not be ignorant and so on.
The captain who was speechless without scolding could only take the task head-on.
I didn't expect to get rid of the moths again when I went out on a mission.
The entire team, the original members plus the personnel who joined after Mark brought it, a total of almost thirty people, not only failed in the mission, but also suffered heavy losses.
If Mark hadn't been a pastor and could heal, maybe they would have been attritional!
Even Mark is tired of saving people and becomes a dead dog.
The embarrassed appearance of a group of people fleeing back to Maple Town in a panic was seen by many people.
Unexpectedly, Mark's younger brother continued to be a demon, and blamed the original members for the failure of the mission.
As a result, the team, named "Red Maple Leaf", was announced to be disbanded on the spot by the captain.
The captain even turned around and went to the adventurer's guild to cancel the team's information, and then re-formed a new black iron team.
At this point, Mark and his younger brothers are completely famous.
No team was willing to accept Mark's joining, let alone offer an olive branch.
In a fit of rage, under the bewitchment of his younger brothers, Mark set up a black iron team by himself.
However, this team, called "Holy Pastor", was suddenly cancelled less than three days after its establishment.
Someone inquired curiously, and then learned that the team established by Mark actually failed when doing the first Black Iron mission!
You know, that's a Black Iron mission! Although it is a group mission, even if a Black Iron level adventurer does it on his own, there is a high chance that he can complete the Black Iron Mission alone! They actually failed!
This directly shocked the entire adventurer circle in Maple Town!
