"You two have unwarranted slander against the clergy of the Statue of Liberty, and as the Grand Priest of the Temple of Liberty in Castletown, I will judge you!"

As Grand Priest Reed swung the Hammer of Judgment, the onlookers let out an exclamation.

Then Grand Priest Reed walked up to the two of them and said:

"You two are chasing the clergy of the Statue of Liberty for no reason, as the Grand Priest of the Statue of Liberty in Castletown, I will punish you!"

As a divine pattern composed of holy light appeared in front of Grand Priest Reed, the holy light and prayer dissipated at the same time......

Another hammer light fell on the two of them, and the two priests of the Moon God Temple were still trying to get up from the ground, but the two hammer lights flashed, and the two immediately screamed again and fell on the observation deck.

Grand Priest Reed looked at the indignant Silver Moon Elves around him, unmoved, and then said in a loud voice:

"You two persecuted the clergy of the Statue of Liberty for no reason, as the Grand Priest of the Statue of Liberty Temple in Castletown, I will sanction you!"

The two young priests were beaten to the ground with blood, then to the ground by two hammers of light, and the third was small and delicate, and they were extremely light, but they hovered above the heads of the two priests of the Moon Temple, and finally struck him the head.

The Silver Moon Elves who were watching around all subconsciously shrank their heads, and the two young priests of the Moon Temple simply lay upright on the stone floor and fainted.

High Priest Reed put the 'Sacred Prayer' in his hand into his magic pocket, bent down and grabbed the collar of a Luna Temple priest, then turned his head to look at Roy, who was stunned next to him, and ordered, "Where are you...... What are you doing in a daze, you can't come over to help! ”

"Oh, here we are!"

Roy hurriedly ran up, grabbed the arms of the other Luna priest, and dragged him to the front of a carriage, following the example of Grand Priest Reed.

Archpriest Reed and Roy worked together to lift the two Luna priests into the carriage, and the half-blood elf, who had been wearing a visor, drove the carriage away from the Cliff Avenue towards the Temple of Liberty.

"His Majesty Mitchell had signed a contract with the Grand Sage of the Moon Temple regarding the two temples, and since the priests of the Moon Temple took the initiative to attack us, we have a reason for this matter anyway."

"Although the Moon Temple is the largest religion in the Elven Continent, but now our Statue of Liberty Temple is preparing to evacuate the Elven Continent on all fronts, and the upper echelons of the Moon Temple want us to leave quietly, Roy, do you know what they are most worried about what we are doing before leaving?"

Roy had never thought of this, as he hadn't even thought about following the Holy War Legion of the Temple of Liberty out of the Elven Continent and into the Dark Lands.

Now that I think about it, I said worriedly:

"Are they worried that we're going to tear down all the temples and turn them into ruins before we leave?"

Grand Priest Reed shook his head slightly, indicating that it was not.

Roy thought seriously again and said tentatively:

"Are they worried that we will take a large number of believers? The population of the elven world is not large in the first place......"

Grand Priest Reed continued to shake his head, and then did not let Roy guess again, but said directly:

"They are worried that we will bury countless flames of holy light on this elven continent, even if we leave, five hundred years later, or even a thousand years...... One day, the Holy Light will shine again on this continent, and then these sparks containing the power of faith will ignite the entire Elven Continent. ”

"They can't wait for us to get away with it now, where are they going to come to us at this time......"

Archpriest Reed said this, and for Roy, it meant that it was only a matter of time before the Liberty Temple was evacuated from Castletown.

"Teacher, I'm glad you were able to make it in time......"

Roy sat in the carriage with two Luna priests at his feet.

When Grand Priest Reed heard Roy say this, he immediately laughed and said:

"Haha, let me tell you another truth, that is, there are not so many coincidental things happening in this world, the so-called coincidental ...... It's better to say that someone with a heart has made some preparations in advance. ”

"Teacher, you're saying you're getting ready too?" Roy asked Archpriest Reed.

Grand Priest Reed nodded, and then said:

"I know that you only have a half-day class at the Elven Academy, and this morning the guards of Edward Street in the lower city invited me to preside over the funeral ceremony, and after the ceremony, I want to ......take advantage of this convenient condition," Grand Priest Reed pointed to the carriage, and continued: "Came to the Elven Academy, returned to the temple with you, and when I came to the temple, I just saw you board a carriage, so I had to ask the coachman to follow all the way." ”

Roy thought that he had run to the Samp Leather Shop in Heroes' Square at noon, but he didn't find the Grand Priest Reed who had been following him all the way.

"Teacher ......"

Roy was inevitably a little moved in his heart.

Grand Priest Reed shook his head and said to Roy, "You have to study hard and improve your strength as soon as possible in order to have the power to protect yourself." ”

Then, probably worried that Roy would be depressed, he encouraged him again:

"Actually, you have done a good job, at least the 'power blessing' is used very spiritually......"

The two talked almost all the way.

……

It wasn't until the carriage stopped at the gates of the Statue of Liberty that Grand Priest Reed stopped encouraging Roy.

Two young priests of the Moon Temple were brought back to the Temple of Liberty by High Priest Reed.

It was already afternoon at this time, and the two young priests came to their senses while they were in the carriage, but they lay down in the carriage and pretended to be dead, as if they had been broken apart by a hammer.

After the carriage stopped, the two young priests were chased out of the carriage by the Grand Priest Reed.

Grand Priest Reed pointed to a clean step in the vestibule and asked the two of them to kneel in front of the Statue of Liberty by the pool in the courtyard.

(The ranks of the Temple of Liberty are roughly as follows: Trainee Priest [not considered rank] - Priest [Normal 1-9] - Grand Priest [1st turn 10-19] - Battle Priest/Priest [2nd turn 20-2] - Light Templar/Bishop [3rd turn 30-39].) ）

(The rank of the Temple of the Moon God is: Trainee Priest [not counted] - Priest [1-9] - High Priest [10-19] - Elder [20-29] - Sage [30-39].) ）

So the priests in the Temple of the Moon are actually just ordinary priests in the Temple of Liberty.

Jasper and Abt didn't expect that Grand Priest Reed had gone out for a long time and actually brought back two priests from the Moon Temple and asked them to kneel in the courtyard......

Hearing Roy say that he had been chased by the two priests of the Temple of the Moon in the city for the past two days, he dismissed the idea of interceding, but the two of them still sent a glass of cold water to the priests of the Temple of the Moon every once in a while to prevent them from suffering from heat stroke in the sun.

Roy sat honestly in his study all afternoons and studied magic.

Everyone waited for a whole afternoon, but they didn't see the Temple of the Moon come to the Temple of Liberty to find someone.

The two young priests were more unlucky, and the prawns on their faces and necks, which had become cooked in the white sun of the vicious sun, had become red, and their skin was obviously sunburned.

Fortunately, they still had water to drink, and until the sun went down, the two priests of the Moon Temple were already sitting on the ground with their eyes closed without saying a word.

Roy was in no hurry to go home, everyone was waiting for the Moon Temple to come and take the two priests away......

It wasn't until a crescent moon appeared on the surface of the sea, and the heat of the day gradually dissipated under the sea breeze, that three carriages with the emblem of the Temple of the Moon slowly stopped at the gate of the Temple of Liberty, and a group of priests of the Temple of the Moon jumped out of the carriage, and they lined up in two rows at the gate of the Temple of Liberty.

The door to the Temple of Liberty was pushed open by Jasper, and a crowd of three priests came out, one of whom was Priest Thorndike.

Priest Thorndike walked among the three, his face gloomy and his eyes cold, and when he walked into the front courtyard, he saw the two young priests who were slumped in front of the Statue of Liberty, and despite their sluggishness and sunburn, Priest Thorndike strode up and kicked the two young priests on the shoulders.

With just two kicks, he kicked two young priests to the ground.

It was probably the three carriages at the entrance of the Statue of Liberty, which attracted many half-blood elves from passing, and everyone honestly stood outside the courtyard of the temple, peeking inside through the iron fence.

When Grand Priest Reed heard Jasper's report, he walked out of the main hall.

He stood on the steps of the main hall entrance and looked through the pool at the three Moon Temple priests in the courtyard.

"I'm the priest of the Temple of the Moon God—Thorndike, Reed, are you trying to provoke a war between the two temples by holding the priests of our Temple of the Moon for no reason?"

The Grand Priest Reed took a few steps down the stairs and rebuked the Thorndike priest:

"Thorndike, I've heard your name, and when you say 'war between the two temples' from your mouth, your tone is really not small, remind you...... You can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing, didn't Elder Sherwood of the Temple of the Moon God remind you recently to avoid friction with the Temple of Liberty as much as possible during this time? ”

"It's not our fault in this matter, it's you two young priests who have been making trouble with us as trainee priests at the Statue of Liberty one after another."

"Speaking of which...... I'm going to ask you the other way, what did you do when you arrested Roy on the street? ”

“…… Or is it because he's been tracking down the whereabouts of the Holy Grail of Wisdom and caught your short feet? ”

"If I want to write a letter from Golfito headquarters, say that your priests from the Temple of the Moon are blocking this ......"

Priest Thorndike did not dare to openly talk about these secret matters with Archpriest Reed in the courtyard again, which was expressly forbidden by Elder Sherwood, and the sweat on Priest Thorndike's forehead broke out again at the thought of Elder Sherwood of the Temple of the Moon.

"Enough, Reed, what the hell do you want?" The Thorndike priest's voice was a little dry and hysterical.

"Give back the Holy Grail of Wisdom that you took away, and you can take these two priests with you." Grand Priest Reed pointed to the two young priests sitting in the courtyard and said coldly.

Priest Thorndike reminded Archpriest Reed, "They are the priests of the Temple of the Moon God!" ”

Grand Priest Reed said, "According to the rank of the Temple of Liberty, they can only barely be called priests. ”
