Chapter 54: Count for help
"Little girl, can you tell me when you got sick?"
After using several Holy Light Divine Spells in succession, but there was no effect, and there was not even a reaction at all, Father Edward frowned, and couldn't help but ask Lin Na softly.
"It's been a while, about two months ago, and I woke up and found that I couldn't see. ”
Lin Na nodded and replied truthfully.
"Then do you remember if anything strange happened around you before the onset of the disease, such as seeing something bad?"
The priest continued.
"It doesn't seem like there's a ......"
Lina shook her head at the priest's question.
"Oh, I remember, I had a very strange dream that night when I saw a lot of little silver stars falling from the sky. ”
Then, without waiting for the priest to continue speaking, Linna suddenly remembered the scene of the dream that night and added.
"Strange dreams, little silver stars...... Does it have something to do with this?"
After listening to Linna's words, Father Edward faintly felt that her eye disease was related to this, but after thinking about it for a while, he couldn't find anything to match it.
"Looks like I'm going to have to go through the church books when I go back. ”
Father Edward, who couldn't find any information in his mental memory, thought to himself.
"I'm sorry, young man, but my magic doesn't seem to work on your sister's eyes, so I'll need to look up the church books and see if I can find the root cause of your sister's blindness. Only by finding the cause of the disease can I find a way to treat her. ”
At this point, Father Edward did not deliberately hide the fact that he could not treat Lin Na for a while, and told Lin directly.
"If it's convenient for you, you can come back to me in two days. ”
Given the sheer volume of the Church's canonical library, Father Edward gave himself two days.
"Well, I'm sorry for you, Father. ”
Hearing Father Edward say that his magic couldn't work on his sister's eyes, Lynn was actually quite disappointed.
After many physicians and healers were helpless against her sister's eye disease, the church's priest's magic was almost the last straw that Lynn could grasp in her heart.
Fortunately, he is not the kind of person who is narrow-minded and will anger others because of personal anger.
Seeing that the old priest was so enthusiastic and offered to help them look through the books to find the cause of the disease, Lynn was still very grateful.
After that, Father Edward and the Lynn siblings continued to communicate for a while, and after asking about the details of the time, they asked the siblings to go back first and wait for the news, and then come back in two days.
"I'm sorry, Nana, my brother promised you that he would find someone to heal your eyes in the main city of Davia, and now he may be breaking his promise. ”
Walking out of the church of the Seven Gods, on the way back to her residence, Lynn looked at her sister holding her arm full of guilt.
Although Father Edward said that he would help them consult the church books to find out the cause of the disease, in Lynn's opinion, even the powerful Holy Light Divine Technique did not work at all, and the hope of his sister's eyes being cured in the main city of Davia was very slim.
Perhaps, there is only hope if you find a more powerful church pastor or medical practitioner.
But for Lynn at this stage, a bishop like Father Edward, a gold-level powerhouse, is already the limit of the powerhouse he can reach.
Powerful priests of the Extreme Intention Rank can only be seen in the Far South Overseas Sacred Mountain, the headquarters of the Church of the Seven Gods.
From the Northern Empire of the Continent to the Southern Sea of the Continent, the distance was thousands of miles, and for a silver-level warrior like him, it was simply an insurmountable moat.
As for the Extreme Intention mage with powerful healing spells, in the Northern Empire, where the mage power is relatively scarce, it is estimated that there is no one in the whole country several times.
Probably only one or two can be found in the Tower of Truth in the Eastern Mage Country of the Continent, or in the Elven Forest of the Far South.
The Far Eastern Country and the Elven Forest are no different from the overseas sacred mountains for Lynn, and they are both difficult places to reach.
Moreover, even if he was allowed to go to these places, he would not have the ability to meet the powerhouses of the Extreme Intention Rank, let alone ask the other party to treat his sister.
The difference between the silver level and the extreme intention level is like cloud mud, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an elephant and an ant.
Thinking of this, Lynn, who had a keen mind, felt more and more guilty and heavy.
"It's okay, brother, didn't the priest just say that he would help us? And even if my eyes don't get better, it's okay, just have my brother by my side. ”
The well-behaved Lin Na understood her brother's feelings at the moment, and hurriedly explained softly.
"Brother, I'm hungry, let's go eat first. ”
Then, without waiting for Lynn to speak, she quickly changed the subject.
"Okay, let's go to dinner, my brother will take you to eat something delicious today. ”
Feeling her sister's arm tightened, Lynn understood her sister's mind and no longer dwelled on this issue.
But in the bottom of his heart, he vowed to do everything he could to cure his sister's eyes.
"Maybe I can go to the Earl for help?"
On the way to find a restaurant with his sister, Lynn suddenly had such an idea in her heart.
"Oh, Lord Earl is now a powerhouse of the Extreme Intention Rank, maybe he has a way to cure his sister's eyes. ”
As soon as the idea popped up, Lynn felt more and more feasible.
"It's just that the Earl is still in the imperial capital to receive a summons from His Majesty the Emperor, will he have time to see us to help us?"
Thinking of the huge disparity in status between himself and the Earl, and the fact that he had never known each other before, Lynn became unconfident in his heart.
"No matter, when the Earl returns from the imperial capital, I must think of seeing him and asking him for help. ”
Thinking of his sister's health, Lynn quickly forced down the lack of self-confidence again, and cheered herself up in her heart.
......
"This one, no, this one, not ...... This one...... Strange dreams, little silver stars, what the hell is ......"
While Lynn was taking his sister to dinner, Father Edward had already arrived at the library at the back of the church and began to look through the various books inside, trying to find out the root cause of Linna's blindness as soon as possible.
He seized on the little star of strange dreams that Lin Na had said, and wanted to find a record of it in the classics.
Unfortunately, the church's canons are not all-powerful, and as a branch church of the Northland Earldom, the types of canons are not complete, and the number of books in the collection is far from being comparable to the overseas holy mountain of the church's headquarters.
Father Edward has flipped through several books on the history of the Croft Continent and has not found a description that matches it.
Later, he looked through several books on the Chaos Evil God, but he couldn't find a similar record.
In the end, he even flipped through some books that recorded the history of the Northland and strange tales, but he also did not find the answer he wanted.
"Maybe when Josius comes back from the imperial capital, I should ask him. ”
In the end, Father Edward, like Lynn, remembered the young Northland Earl Josius Olaf.
Unlike Lynn, as a close friend of the former old earl and an elder who grew up watching Josius, Father Edward had no difficulty in meeting Josius.
And he knew Josius far more than Lynn.
As the thousand-year-old guardians of the Northlands, the Olaf family is not a simple imperial noble, it is the holder of the relics left by the ancient sages, and the orderlies who suppress the power of the Chaos Evil God in the Northlands.
And Josius, who has completely been recognized by the holy relics, is known as the successor of the saint.
Based on Father Edward's understanding of Josius this year, Josius, as a descendant of the Sage, not only inherited great power from the holy relics, but also obtained incomparably rich knowledge and information.
In the priest's opinion, although Josius is only a twenty-five-year-old young man today, when it comes to knowledge, those old powerhouses on the mainland may not be as good as him.
So when faced with this unsolvable problem, Father Edward naturally thought of asking the Earl for help.
"Well, there's no way, when Josius comes back, let's ask him. Master Chanodon, who is proficient in space magic, will be in charge of the pick-up, and he should be able to return from the imperial capital soon......"
......
"Father, what is the situation, do you want to find out?"
Two days later, Lynn brought her sister to the church again. Seeing Father Edward, Lynn asked with anticipation and nervousness.
"I'm sorry. ”
Looking at Lynn's expectant eyes, the kind-hearted old priest suddenly felt a little guilty, he didn't say anything more, but the word "sorry" already said everything.
"Still not......"
After listening to the old priest's words, although Lynn was a little mentally prepared, his mood was still instantly low.
"Don't be discouraged, young man, listen to me. Although I haven't found a cause of your sister in the texts, I can recommend you to someone who should be able to help you. ”
Seeing that Lynn's eyes were dark and depressed, Father Edward hurriedly offered a word of comfort and proposed.
"Really, Father, who is this man? Can he really heal my sister?"
Listening to Father Edward's words, Lynn suddenly became excited.
"Well, I'm not sure if I can cure your sister, but he's the most likely person I know to help you. And he was so close to us and the host of the place. I mean, you know who it is, right?"
Father Edward looked at Lynn and said softly, and finally sold a small pass.
"Are you talking about the Earl?"
Lynn is not stupid either, and when she heard Edward say this, she instantly thought of her idol Earl.
The owner of this place is not Josius Olaf, the Earl of the Northlands.
"That's right, it's him. ”
Father Edward smiled and nodded.
"Josius is now a Pole Strongman, and his power inheritance is extraordinary, so there's a good chance he could help you. To be honest, if even he can't help you, I guess only a legend can cure your sister. ”
"But the Earl is still in the imperial capital, right? And he's so busy, do you have time to see us?"
Lynn had faith in her idol, and now Father Edward's words made her even more confident.
However, at this time, thinking of the disparity between the identities of the two, Lynn was still a little apprehensive.
"Don't worry, I'll introduce you, and Josius will agree to see you. And he is also a warm-hearted person, after learning about your sister's situation, he will definitely not refuse to help. ”
Hearing Lynn's concerns, Father Edward patted his chest and reassured.
"That's good, that's good......"
With Father Edward's assurance, Lynn's heart finally settled a little.
