As the woman lifted her cloak, a burned and disfigured face appeared in front of everyone.

"Hiss~" Everyone snorted and took a deep breath of cold air.

Disfigurement is extremely cruel to a person, let alone a young woman.

Although the woman was disfigured, even the hair on the top of her forehead was burned bald.

But judging from other fairly intact skin, the woman's age should be around 20 years old, which is the age of youth and grace.

One can imagine how many rolls of eyes and bullying this woman has endured to survive until now.

If it weren't for the fact that everyone was a person with status, maybe they would have to exclaim "ugly eight monsters"!

"You...... Who is it? ”

Nock struggled to identify the other party, but eventually gave up and chose to ask the other party directly.

Hearing Nock's question, the woman's eyes widened with excitement, and she pointed to her burned face with her finger, and asked loudly, "Who am you asking?" Who am I, you ask? Who am I you don't recognize?

Also, you only have Lillian and the twins in your heart, and we're all redundant in the middle! And rightfully for you don't remember! ”

Hearing the woman's resentful complaints, Nock's body shook violently and remembered a name.

He looked at the woman in disbelief and tentatively pronounced the name.

"Ashley?"

The woman's complaint paused for a moment, and a look of nostalgia flashed across her face, but it was quickly overwhelmed by hatred.

"Ouch, I haven't heard this name in many years, and our Bishop still remembers it.

It's a pity that once Eslim is dead, and I am now a nature priest Nova, a believer in the goddess of nature! ”

Ash almost shouted out the words in a roaring manner.

Nock apologized ashamedly, "I'm sorry, I tried my best to find you when you disappeared, but I was in a coma when the church caught fire.

When I woke up, the dormitory was burned down, and I was wanted for something, and I was forced to leave the Kingdom of Lionheart.

Later, I met your murderer, Hawkes, and learned from him that he killed you and set fire to the church. He became a pirate, and he had adventures, and I was no match for him at sea, and he escaped.

Sorry for making you suffer all these years. I swear, I'll help you catch Hawks and hand it over to you! ”

Nock's sincere apology, in Asley Delake's opinion, is Nok's charity and ridicule of herself.

She roared hoarsely, "Enough! Put away your fakes! You're just as disgusting as Lilian's face! I am a priest of nature, and I don't need your worthless mercy! Didn't this slut Lillian tell you why she arrested me! ”

Without waiting for doubts, Nock asked Lillian, who was originally sitting in a chair, and Lillian had already come to Nock's side at some point, and raised her hand and slapped Ashley in the face.

Syllable!

After being slapped in the face, Ashley didn't scream, just glared at Vivien with a hateful gaze. The magic condensed in his hand was about to smash on Lilian's body.

Lillian pressed her hand on the saber with a cold face, and coldly warned her: "You'd better settle down, if you want to do it, I guarantee that the one who dies first is not me." ”

Thinking of the hardships she had endured at Lilian's hands, Ashley didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore.

Lillian is not Nock Lane, this woman's heart is made of stone, and her cruelty and ruthlessness have long spread throughout the Lionheart Kingdom.

Ai Sili has personally experienced this woman's hard-hearted heart and ruthlessness.

Nock looked at the two sisters who were arguing, and looked at each other's undisguised killing intent, and his head suddenly became bigger.

He didn't understand why brothers and sisters, who had grown up together as a monastery, had grown up facing each other.

But he didn't blame Vivien, he wouldn't blame a sister who ran to support him despite the danger for a sister who hated him.

He's just that selfish.

He has affection for the children of the monastery, but that does not mean that he will condone them against him.

After all, having seen Hawks's attitude towards him, Nock didn't care about having one more Ashley who was against him.

"Tell me, what's going on with her?"

Nock returned to his seat on the stage and sat down, but when he spoke again, his whole person's momentum changed.

Become aloof, cold and ruthless.

Lilian watched Nock's change, and her face was not afraid, but pleasantly surprised.

She motioned for the guards around her to regain control of Ashley before returning to her position and explaining to the crowd and Nock.

It turned out that in recent years, the Natural Church has successfully secured its position as the state religion by helping Queen Elizabeth suppress domestic opposition to her opening a maritime hegemony.

It is not known what terms of cooperation they reached with the queen, and they even agreed to allow the people of the Natural Church to participate in the internal affairs of the country.

There was even a healing corps of monks from the Church of Nature formed in the army.

For a time, the Natural Church interfered in military and political power, causing panic in the aristocratic circle of the Lionheart Kingdom.

But the Natural Church has attracted a group of nobles, and no matter how much the remaining nobles oppose it, they can't shake the fact that the Natural Church has settled in the military and political system.

But the aristocratic circle did not give up because of this, but secretly investigated what secret things were between the queen and the Church of Nature.

Lilian, as a countess who was supported by the queen after returning home, was naturally labeled as the queen's person.

At the suggestion of the Queen, she also allowed people from the Natural Church to enter her territory to preach and develop.

Privately, Lillian prefers to move closer to the nobility.

She understands her interests as a nobleman and aligns with the nobility circle.

She secretly sent people to keep an eye on the natural church personnel in her territory, but she didn't expect to find out the amazing secret.

The queen is almost 70 years old this year, she is just an ordinary person, not a professional, so this age is already considered an advanced age.

In the face of her declining health, the queen made an agreement with the Church of Nature.

The queen allowed the natural church to develop her mission, and the natural church helped the queen maintain her youth and health.

However, in the process of preaching, the natural church relies entirely on promoting the growth of crops to attract the people to join.

The land that has been spawned by the Church of Nature has been investigated by Lilian's subordinates will inexplicably lose its fertility, and even the weeds in the vicinity will inexplicably die after the people of the Church of Nature leave.

You must know that it is a weed that cannot be burned by wildfires, and even if it is covered with heavy snow, the weeds that can still be rejuvenated in the spring of the next year will die inexplicably.

Lillian sensed that something was wrong, and sent a large number of men to investigate the places where the cultists of Deity exhibited "miracles", and found that the same situation was happening.

Lilian made a quick decision to secretly arrest a missionary of the Natural Church, tortured her, and finally interrogated her to find out the truth.

The so-called miracles of the Church of Nature are nothing more than the fact that the Church of Nature extracts the vitality of the nearby land and pours it into the growing crops, so that they can grow and grow.

The price to pay is to make that land lose its vitality for a few years.

Of course, it doesn't take that much life to grow crops.

The life force that was intercepted was stored by the Naturalists using the means within the church and handed over to the superiors.

Lillian examines the life force she gets from the missionary, and that energy not only makes her stronger, but also makes her body more energetic.

If it is used on those who are old, it is simply a dead wood in spring, and it will be renewed.

Lillian also understood how the Church of Nature handled the Queen.

She originally wanted to inform the noble circle of the kingdom about this, but she didn't expect to receive the news that Nock had disappeared and returned.

She was in a hurry to see Nock, so she sent someone to bring the news to the royal city.

But he didn't want the Church of Nature to notice that a missionary was missing, so he robbed the messenger halfway, and after learning that Lillian knew their secret, he sent Ashley to hunt down Lillian.

On the way from the Kingdom of Lionheart to the Kingdom of Fran, Ashley secretly commanded the people of the Church of Nature to assassinate Lillian, but Lillian cracked it.

Seeing that Lillian was about to board the ship and leave the Lionheart Kingdom, Ashley decided to take the risk herself, approaching Lillian as an old man, and secretly poisoning everyone on board.

But I don't want Lilian to be no longer the ignorant little girl she was at the beginning.

As a qualified nobleman, she didn't believe in so-called coincidences too much.

A younger sister who has been missing for ten years suddenly appeared to recognize her, and she naturally became guarded.

The gap in identity and interests has made Lilian suffer too much calculation.

Sure enough, under the watchful eye of Ming Song and Secretly, Lillian caught Ashley's horse.

After knowing that she had poisoned herself, she instructed her subordinates to pretend to be poisoned, coaxed Ashley to make a move, and captured Ashley red-handed.

After being tortured to extract a confession, Ashley finally told her purpose.

Only then did Lillian know that this little sister, who had been missing for many years, had been by their side all along, watching them in distress with cold eyes.

Even over the years, he has secretly done bad things to children from monastery.

Nock and Lillian were far away from the coast, and she couldn't target them.

However, her twin siblings in the northern neighbors of the Lionheart Kingdom, as well as Colover, who is now serving in the resistance in the Lionheart Kingdom, have been persecuted by her.

Colwell, in particular, was wanted after being betrayed by her.

Ace told Lillian all of this in a show-off manner, just to provoke Lillian.

Lillian was indeed angered by her, and if she hadn't wanted to bring her to meet Nock and untie Nock's knot of losing her brother and sister back then, Lillian would have thrown this twisted Ashley into the sea to feed the fish.

After listening to Lilian's explanation, Nock looked at Ashley with no more tenderness and guilt.

"Since you think that the people of the monastery have harmed you, then I, as the head of the monastery, should indeed give you an explanation. Hawkes plotted to kill you and cause you to be disfigured by fire, and I will kill him with my own hands to avenge you.

But it is not for me to allow you to assassinate other people, to resent them, to take revenge on them, not to be allowed by the other people in the monastery.

Since you have chosen to be our enemy, then I will give you the treatment that your enemy deserves.

Drag her down and hang her. The body was hung in the sun at the gate of the city for three days, indicating her origin. The pagans of the Natural Church dare to infiltrate the territory of the Holy Church, and this is the end.

It just so happened that there was still a holy war between the Church of Nature and the Bishop that had not been fulfilled, and I would like to see if they had the courage to go to war with the Bishop! ”

Nock's decision surprised those present, but at the same time surprised and satisfied.

After all, Enoch's current situation is indecisive and emotional.

"Nope! Nock Lane, you can't kill me! You made me like this, and you feel guilty about me! You're going to make it up to me! You can't do this to me! ”

Ashley didn't expect that Nock would be even more ruthless than Lilian.

Where is the Nock Lane who fought for the monastery in the first place!

This is not the same as the result she planned!

Otherwise, she would be stupid to provoke him!

Isn't it just to make the other party feel guilty, and then let yourself go!

Why did it turn out to be himself put to death!

This script is wrong!
