Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Sun Church's Ball
After a while, the entire cell was completely silent.
The old priest looked at Leo carefully, and said to the vigilant paladin, "Untie them, they can't be spies sent from the White Bone Mountain Range." β
"Yes, Bishop. The paladin, though hesitant, was clearly more trained than the guards before him, and without questioning, he broke the rope from Leo and Vianna.
The old bishop also whispered a few words, and a flash of light flashed, and Leo found himself back to normal.
Vianna kept blinking her eyes, and still didn't understand how Leo's words made the other party's attitude change. She just thought that if she really couldn't do it, she would change into her own body form and rush out with Leo.
"Go outside, Lester, I don't want anyone to hear what we're talking about. The old priest waved his hand and waited for the paladin to leave, then said to Leo, "Son, I apologize for our previous recklessness. Now tell me, who are you, and why do you know about the actions of our church in the Oak Desert?"
Since the other party had already taken the initiative to apologize, Leo didn't want to say anything more, and said, "My name is Leo Minahir, and I am a student of the Calente Empire's Reventon Academy of Magic. β
"Raventon?" the old priest frowned, as if he had heard the name.
Leo nodded: "Yes, I am a classmate with Lotus and Lotus, and I came here this time to find him in Yang Halberd City." β
"People of the Sun-Chaser Royal Clan, I did hear that they sent a man to learn magic. The old mage said, not paying much attention to it, "Please continue." β
Seeing the old priest like this, Leo couldn't help but secretly say that his decision was really wise.
Even if Lothas is really a royal family, judging from the other party's appearance, it seems that the influence is also very limited, if this is mentioned just now. I'm afraid that at this moment, some evil soul test has been imposed on me.
"Actually, I know it's a coincidence. β
A few minutes later, Leo told the old priest about his stay at Fort Joseph.
"It's a coincidence. The old priest looked thoughtful.
"If you have any questions about this, you can ask Bishop Martin. Leo was afraid that the other party would not believe it, "Your church should have a means of remote communication, right?"
The old priest shook his head and said, "No need. This matter is also a higher-level secret in our church, and you can know it, which is enough to prove that your identity is true and credible. But I still have to say that this matter, please don't mention it to others casually. β
"You can rest assured. I won't, it's not a crisis just now, and I can't say it. Leo replied seriously, and then said, "Can you sue SΓΉ, why are you ...... It seems that everyone is very hostile to the mage, which does not match the rumors I have heard. β
"We will not be hostile to mages, but to those who are evil. The old priest replied, "It is so, that you have crossed the Mountains of Bones. There are several powerful lichs that have been entrenched all these years, and they have been quiet and safe with us. But not so long ago. Suddenly, several of the Lich's henchmen infiltrated our town, plundering the lives and souls of many people, including several church priests. So when we see the mage now, some of them are all soldiers. The gate guards let those men in last time. It's human nature to be sensitive now, and I hope you can understand. β
There is a pause. He added, "Actually, if I had just used the Evil Soul Test on you, I would have proved your innocence. Our church can't do anything to kill innocents. β
"Of course, I am very convinced of the reputation of your church. Leo responded, in fact, he didn't believe this statement at all.
Organizations such as the Church of the Sun God openly promote positive energy such as fraternity, kindness, and fairness, but in private, there are also shady institutions such as the ZΓ i Inquisition that are used to eliminate specific targets. If the old priest really detected the abnormality of his soul, I am afraid that the problem is not as simple as it is now, and this cell in the depths of the cell at this moment is even more silent proof.
The old mage smiled and said, "But I'm still very strange, the two of you are young, if my eyesight is correct, your level should not have reached level 3, this Moon Elf lady, I'm sorry, I really can't see her ability." So how did you get here?"
It's a difficult question to answer, and if it's made up randomly, it can only lead to suspicion, so Leo has to look at Vianna and let her decide whether to tell the truth or not.
However, Vianna looked innocent, and the meaning was obvious: I don't know how to do this, you should watch and do it.
Leo thought about it for a moment, but finally decided to tell the truth, and nodded to Vianna again.
This time, Vianna immediately understood, but did not speak, but released the firmly suppressed dragon power.
In an instant, the old priest's pupils shrank sharply, and his body involuntarily took a few steps back. Even though his own strength was already very strong, he was still a little unable to resist in front of the majestic dragon power that suddenly appeared.
"I see......," the old mage smiled wryly, "it seems that our mistake was not only reckless, but also stupid. Thanks to the two of them for forbearance, they didn't hurt those ignorant children. β
Vianna rolled her eyes and said for the first time, "What's the use of saying this, should you make up for it?"
"This ...... This ......" The old pastor was immediately embarrassed. How do you answer a dragon who asks himself for compensation?
Leo is afraid that Vianna's lion will open his mouth and make trouble on both sides, and the reason why he is only letting Vianna take action now is also to avoid arousing the hostility of the Church of the Sun, after all, this kind of super church can not be "blasphemed" by anyone.
Now that the goal has been achieved, of course, it is better to accept it when it is good. He hurriedly stood up and said, "It's just a misunderstanding, just make up for it or something." It's not too early now, we want to find a suitable place to stay, I don't know if His Excellency Bishop has any places to recommend?"
The old priest immediately borrowed a ladder to go down the wall, and said with a smile: "The two of you are guests from afar, why don't you rest in our church for one night, and tomorrow I will arrange a carriage and horses to escort the two of you to Yang Halberd City?"
Leo pulled Vianna, who was full of displeasure, and also smiled: "You are too polite, you don't need to escort anything." But if you can, can you issue a certificate for both of us, so that we don't have to encounter such misunderstandings in the future. (To be continued......)
