460 Priests
behaved very politely, did not dare to slack off at all, and obviously put the position of the investigation team members very high.
The members of the investigation team looked at each other.
Have they been discovered?
Or even see through their identity?
So, why not?
They were just about to meet this priest who was said to be a descendant of the queen of the ancient kingdom of Loulan.
Besides, they have nothing to fear.
Behind them stood the Freedom International and the United Preservation Force, the most powerful forces in the ninja world.
The joint action of the two families means the power of the entire ninja world.
Whoever it is, must give in to this will.
They have that self-confidence.
"Please lead the way."
"Yes, come with me."
In this way, following this person, soon after, he arrived in the center of Loulan, where a church-like building was built.
They walked inside, through a long walkway, to the bottom of a platform step.
On the platform, a figure turned.
It was a very small figure, no more than five or six years old, with light reddish-brown hair, dark brown eyes, and conspicuous eyelashes.
The hair on both sides is tied back at the back of the head, forming an arc on both sides.
At the back of the head is a ponytail that droops back.
Wearing a purple robe on his body, he has a very ancient style in the ninja world...... It's just that the architectural style here doesn't look like the main style of the ancient ninja world, it's more like the ...... on the Western Continent It is not surprising that there are already some architectural inheritances in the style of the Western Continent on the side of the Wind Country, and even many people in the race have characteristics similar to those of the Western Continent.
There are even ancient rumors that the ninja world and the western continent were connected by land a long time ago......
"Welcome, people from the United Preservation and Freedom International."
The immature voice spoke.
Their identities were revealed in one bite.
Although they had expected it a long time ago, they were still a little surprised to be broken by such a direct explanation.
And this priest is also a little too young.
"You're the priest?" An investigator asked.
The girl nodded, a very gentle smile on her face.
"Yes."
"Why are you so young?"
"Because I'm only so young."
At this moment, the investigator from Konoha spoke: "The Queen of Loulan was very young at the beginning, and the past time is not very long, and it is normal to have such a young daughter. ”
"Yes, there was a rebellion in Loulan at the beginning, and it was also thanks to the ninjas of Konoha who maintained it."
The priest politely nodded to the investigator from Konoha and said.
Then he said to the people present: "I know your intentions, please rest assured, we are not wanton cultists, we just want to protect the power of the dragon veins and garrison this land as in the past." ”
"We need to be observant."
"Everyone is welcome to come and observe, and the town of Loulan will definitely entertain all the distinguished guests from afar."
The members of the investigation team were quite satisfied with the other party's cooperation.
Then someone asked, "Where does your electricity come from?" ”
"Of course, it was transformed through the power of the dragon vein."
"The dragon vein still has a powerful chakra, right?"
"Yes, but at the same time, the dragon vein has a spirit, he has awakened, and we are not blindly asking for the power of the dragon vein, we are exchanging the power of the dragon vein with faith." The priest said calmly.
"Gods?" One of the investigators muttered to himself.
Today, many ninjas are aware of the existence of gods.
They, the ninjas who investigated the cultists' Freedom International and United Protection, must have known as well.
"Can we get some samples of the dragon vein power?" One of the investigators asked.
Whether the dragon vein is evil, good, or neutral and orderly, can be understood from the sampling of the other party's power.
After all, maybe the original power of the dragon vein is not evil, but if the cultists get involved and worship the dragon vein through cruel blood sacrifices, it is not clear whether the dragon vein is polluted.
Therefore, this kind of sampling research on the power of the dragon vein is related to their attitude towards the dragon vein and towards Loulan.
This group of people who call themselves the remnants of Loulan is not the remnants of Loulan? Or are they disguised cultists, or are the remnants of Loulan bewitched by cultists?
It can be judged by the power of the sampled dragon veins.
"Absolutely."
The priest was cooperative.
Soon after, they finished sampling some kind of power.
Among them, the ninja with the ability to perceive has already initially noticed that there is no evil and tyrannical negative flavor in it, it is very peaceful, and even has a vast and far-reaching feeling...... This made them feel a lot more at ease about Loulan and the dragon vein.
As investigators investigating cultists, they also know to a certain extent that the power of the gods that the cultists believe in, or the power of something that the cultists have touched, will definitely have a somewhat evil flavor at first sight.
It's an essence that's hard to hide.
The other party should not be a real cultist, it is possible that it is really the remnants of Loulan who came back to guard the dragon vein, if this is the case, according to the past tradition and ancient agreement, that is, they can be accepted and let them continue to protect the dragon vein.
Next, they still need to investigate for a while in this Loulan town, collect some information that should be collected, and then go back to their lives.
Just as they were about to leave here.
"Please wait a minute."
The priest stopped them.
"What else?"
The priest turned his finger at the investigator from Konoha who had arrived.
"This is a relic of the original seal."
A kunai with a strange shape was taken out.
"This is, the flying thunder god kunai of the four generations of adults?"
The ninja of Konoha couldn't help but say, and when he saw the young priest offering kunai with both hands, he reached out and took kunai.
"Yes, Konoha is really grateful for helping us at the beginning."
"No, that's in the past, and the seniors are just doing what they're told."
"There's no need for this anymore, so return it to its original owner, and please bring it back to Konoha."
"Is it back to its rightful owner? Four generations of lords......" Speaking of this, the Konoha ninja paused, and then said, "I know, I will bring Konoha back and give it to Hokage-sama." ”
"The hero who saved us is still in Konoha now." The young priest said with a smile.
Then he said: "Although everything is different, everything has gone to another fork in the road, but the future is different, or it intersects with the past that should be buried, and time is really magical......
It's very inexplicable, and I don't know what to say.
In short, with this kunai, the group left the church.
The young priest watched them go, his eyes shining with an inexplicable glint.
