Chapter 36: The Church of Light's Actions
"It's okay, right?" Pulling the half-lying Illya up from the ground, Fang Qiubai hit the king up and down with a nervous face.
"Yes, it's fine. You're amazing. Illya said to Fang Qiubai with a faint smile.
"That's good. Fang Qiubai let out a long breath and let go of his worries.
"There's a magic crystal. Illya packed up the materials underground and handed the magic crystal of the male fire dragon to Fang Qiubai.
"Well, I hope they can give them some strength, so that if the magic is enough, I can summon more. Fang Qiubai replied by absorbing the fiery red magic crystal handed over by Illya.
"Although I already know your identity, I still want to say that it is really amazing. Like the creator, he not only created a demonic beast in this world, but also made it impossible for the god of death to interfere. The breeze ruffled Illya's long hair, and she reached to her sideburns to fix it, watching her surroundings slowly fade with a little excitement.
At the same time, in the secret room deep under the church of the Silver Mountain Bright Church, Bishop Soros was conveying the news he had just received to the congregation: "The Almighty Lord has discovered that there is a demonic breath in the depths of the Forest of Illusions, and His Majesty has sent someone to check it, and the leader of the team is the new paladin Carlos, you give me some restraint, if something happens, you know what to do!"
If there were outsiders at the scene, they would definitely be surprised, you must know that Soros has always been known for his amiability in Silver Mountain, and in the eyes of most people, he is a respectable elder. At this moment, the elder had a gloomy and murderous face, but the priests and priests present did not feel any surprise.
"Lord Bishop, could this incident have something to do with that Fang Qiubai of the Silver Oak Leaf Mercenary Regiment? The magic that the mage under his command used outside the city last time was very strange, very strange. A priest dressed in rudimentary linen clothes asked.
"Well, Father Paul, that's not your concern. Soros sneered a few times, thought for a while and added: "It depends on whether that Fang Qiubai knows whether he knows or not, and when I finish dealing with the few sluts in my hand, I will go to him." ”
"But the two men under him are terrifying, what if they don't obey?" Paul looked still a little worried.
"If they don't know what to do, then our noble paladins will find out that there are heretics entrenched in Silvermountain City, and of course what happens at that time has nothing to do with us. Soros's voice became sharper and sharper the more he spoke, with a thick anger.
"What?," Alexander asked in surprise as he looked at the news he had just received.
"Yes, that Carlos is said to have just broken through to level 8, and the dozen or so under him are actually all above level 6, but we can't know why they came to the Phantom Forest for. The soldier who delivered the message also had a hint of doubt on his face.
Waving his hand to let the soldiers retreat, Alexander fell into deep thought, Silver Mountain City, a remote city, even the Church of Light only sent a level 5 priest to preside, but this time it suddenly sent a level 8 paladin and more than a dozen knights above level 6, the destination, the Forest of Illusions? Is it because of the ghost clan incident? But why did the church not move when the ghost clan appeared, and the branch of the Silver Mountain Light Church didn't even know the truth about the ghost clan.
Although he didn't know the purpose of the Church of Light, Alexander was still going to inform Fang Qiubai, after all, according to what Fang Qiubai said, it was only through Lena and a group of super demonic beasts that the ghost clan was sealed in the Forest of Illusions, and the paladins of the Church of Light were probably here for this. You must know that the matter of the ghost clan, in addition to Fang Qiubai's group of people and the demonic beasts in the forest, Yinshan only has Alexander and a few of his cronies who know the Dao, and everyone else only thinks that the demonic beasts have rioted, in the past countless years, although the riots of the demonic beasts are not as big as this one, but there are quite a few, so when the demonic beasts outside the city are eliminated, there are no more people to care.
Considering the influence of the city lord, Alexander changed into an inconspicuous outfit, and did not think that it was getting dark. A man quietly walked towards the Silver Oak Mercenary Corps station.
As soon as Fang Qiubai and Illya teleported back to the assembly hall, they saw Kano with an anxious face in front of them, and when they saw the two of them appear, Kano was overjoyed and hurriedly greeted them: "The city lord of Alexandria is here, and now he is waiting in the reception room, you have finally come out." ”
Fang Qiubai handed in the task unhurriedly and asked, "It's so late, did he say anything?"
"I'm so good at asking, so I'm here to wait for you and the head of the regiment to come out. Kano replied helplessly.
"How many people did the lord bring?" asked Illya.
"One, and in disguise. Kano said cautiously.
Fang Qiubai and Illya glanced at each other, Alexander came in disguise at this time, most likely because there was something important, so he didn't delay and hurried to the reception room.
The so-called reception room is just a wooden house built by the mercenaries in the inner courtyard themselves, but no one is using it for the time being, so Bruce has set aside a part of it as a backup, which happens to be used here.
At this moment, Alexander was sitting quietly by the window, looking at the strange cabins in the courtyard, the tall and lifelike sculptures, and the strange building that emitted thick white smoke, and he didn't know what Lu Dao was thinking.
When he entered the door with Illya, he found that Alexander was staring at the assembly hall in a daze, Fang Qiubai smiled secretly and said, "I don't know if the city lord is driving, I hope you don't be surprised." ”
Alexander suddenly turned his head and saw Fang Qiubai, and said with a bold smile: "Little brother Fang Qiubai, don't say such hypocritical things to me, I came uninvited, I have something important to tell you." ”
"I don't know what kind of big thing needs to be told by the city lord in person?" pulling Illya to sit opposite the city lord, Fang Qiubai asked curiously.
"The Church of Light has sent paladins to the Forest of Illusions, and it is inevitable that they will stay in Silverhill," Alexander told the news.
"The Church of Light, could they be there for the Ghost Clan Seal?" Illya, like most people, has always had a good impression of the Church of Light.
"Let's not talk about whether they know about the Lu Dao ghost clan, even if they know about the Lu Dao, it is impossible for them to know that the matter has been solved this time, so I think it is very likely that their target this time will be you or the group of super demonic beasts you mentioned. Alexander cautioned.
"In this way, the city lord's impression of the Church of Light doesn't seem to be very good?" Fang Qiubai thought thoughtfully.
"It's not just bad, frankly speaking, no one, including His Majesty the Emperor, will like this behemoth. What's more, the current Church of Light has long since become corrupt and degenerate, and there are shady things to do behind it. Alexander slapped the table with an angry face.
"Aren't you afraid that we will tell the church?" Fang Qiubai asked with a smile.
"I don't believe that people with such power and fortune would hook up with the church. Alexander showed an appreciative expression, and Fang Qiubai shuddered when he looked at it.
"How is that possible? How is it possible for the church to be what you say? Isn't Father Soros very respected?" Illya came back to her senses from her stressful words.
"That old bastard? Take this siege of Warcraft as an example, have you seen the people of the church come forward to defend it? They have long been ready to escape, and now when they need to be treated by the church, how many people can afford their high fees? Moreover, I suspect that some cases of disappearances of young girls are related to Soros, an old guy, but because of their special status, I can't help it. Alexander sneered.
Illya, who had never been in contact with such a dark side, was distracted by Alexander's words, and was stunned stupidly, and Fang Qiubai's heart ached when she saw it.
Gently holding Illya's hand, Fang Qiubai said softly: "Xiaoya, there is darkness everywhere, but they hide it relatively deeply, don't be sad about this kind of thing." ”
Seeing that Illya still didn't believe it, Fang Qiubai had no choice but to pick out some things about the evil of the church from the time-traveling novels he had read in his previous life and tell them as stories.
Hearing Fang Qiubai's series of evil deeds about the church, Alexander sighed with deep sympathy: "It's ridiculous that the Church of Light thought it was hiding well, but I didn't expect to leave so much evidence, but why have I never heard of it?"
Of course, Fang Qiubai couldn't explain that this was just a novel from another world, so he could only change the topic vaguely
