The first foray into the rivers and lakes Chapter Seventy-Five: The Hakka Temple
Sitting on Xiaobai's broad back, Anna leaned in his arms. Maybe it's a long journey, tired, maybe it's last night's turmoil, and the mood is heavy. Jiro silently puffed up his chest, trying to make Nana more comfortable, letting her fluttering hair brush his face and confuse his thoughts.
Grandpa, although you have always been reluctant to face the past, unwilling to talk to me about the past, although you buried your truest feelings deep in the past. But, just like last night, Jiro personally made an oath to you. No matter who it is, even if it is the high-ranking Pope of Light, if he is the culprit back then, then let him suffer the consequences! Sooner or later, Erlang will snow your decades of hatred for you!
Undoubtedly, the old man's heart is extremely firm, and it can be seen that he was able to survive the tragedy of that year. I couldn't sleep in pain all night, and the next morning, like no one else, I was going to practice it for my two grandchildren. As for Anna's little daughter complex, the old man was also appeased, until he watched his teary-eyed granddaughter go on the road, and the old man looked happy. Erlang suddenly felt that he understood him very well, maybe he was the same kind of person, only in dark corners would he secretly lick his wounds?
Because of the trip to the fishing village, the curious baby Mentor Nia never asked Erlang strange questions again. Flying in the air has always been boring, but this time it's a lot less cumbersome and much faster: that's how Nia describes Mark, it's so heavy that it's about to crush her beloved pet!
On this day, I finally saw a piece of land again! When I flew closer, it was not a piece, but a lot, a lot of islands! Large and small, dotted all over the place, with a bird's-eye view from a high place, this is exactly a paradise!
The trio landed on one of the largest islands, the highest of them. Erlang is down-to-earth, and finally there is no longer a feeling of erratic. This is a huge platform, surrounded by eight thick white stone pillars rising into the sky, which can be tens of meters high.
More than a dozen heavily armored paladins greeted her, bent down to Nia, "I've seen Miss!" Nya didn't say anything, waved her sleeves, and walked forward.
Erlang watched quietly, and thought with his toes, this is a destination of this trip, the Bright Holy See, but it is just a branch, an important force guarding the southeast of the mainland! For the sake of Bao Lao, the impression in Erlang's heart of the Holy See is a little lower, although it is not to the point of hatred. God knows if it was the relationship with Shi Lao Ni Lao, who was also a teacher and friend, or the good eye relationship between the two Nia brothers and sisters narrowed the distance. It's just that if you want to have a cordial relationship with it, it's that the door is gone.
As you climb the stairs, wide white steps wind your way up the ridge, and huge stone pillars stand majestically, and you are almost at the top of the mountain. The mountain wind was fierce, and there were more and more knights patrolling on both sides, and when they saw Nia, most of them just nodded.
Fifteen minutes away, finally arrived at the top of the mountain, a huge stone monument stands in the middle of the wind, more than 20 meters high, a radius of several zhang, with four big characters written on it: Bright Holy See!
Bypassing the stone monument, there is a gate, and eight heavily armored knights stand on both sides of the door, and the wood carvings and clay sculptures do not move. Quickly following Nia, the three of them stepped through the door.
Turning the huge stone plaque, the courtyard was cheerful. Thousands of square meters of square, spotless, surrounded by spring water, crisp and pleasant. A huge stone statue stands in the middle, more than 30 meters high, with wings on its back, with a solemn expression and lifelike.
Without any more words, Nya silently walked to the front, stood with a serious expression, knocked on her chest with one hand, closed her eyes and bowed her head. Anna was stunned and stared at the stone statue. It is solemn and holy, as if it has infinite magic, and people can't help but want to bow and worship. Anna couldn't look straight and stood aside with her head down.
The Bright Holy See, there is indeed a bit of a doorway! Erlang seems to understand whether he understands or not, and there seems to be a faint coercion in the stone statue, which makes people nervous and solemn for no reason. I don't know why, but there is a kind of rejection in my heart, which seems to come from instinctive disgust.
Within a few minutes, Nia reopened her eyes and whispered, "Go, see the Bishop!"
According to Nia's account, the Archscopal of Tiannan, one of the eight branches of the Holy See on the mainland, has a cardinal archbishop in charge, who is the supreme administrator of this place, and can be described as a high authority. The power system of the Holy See of Light is divided into three major systems, among which under the Pope, the most powerful is the cardinal archbishop, which can be said to be under one person and above ten thousand. There are four cardinal archbishops in the Holy See, who sit in four of the eight branches, and only obey the orders of His Excellency the Pope, and even the number one master of the branch here, Nix, is three points below her in terms of authority. She is the only woman of the four bishops, a high-level magician of the two lines of flame and light: Fire Dance.
For the fire dance, the old nun's evaluation is: A powerful magician, strong, even if it is himself, he may not be able to win the battle. Coupled with the domineering and super destructive power of fire-based magic, it is a person that even he does not want to face. Fortunately, people are more generous, and there is a limit of generosity, so it is relatively easy to work with.
Stepping into the temple, the Holy See of Light is worthy of being the number one force in the mainland, how magnificent and brilliant!
There are not many people in the hall, and on the throne in the middle, there is a woman sitting, not expected to be old, only in her thirties, with deep eyes, long golden hair, goose egg face, snow-white skin, red and white magic robes, and brilliance. Not only is he not old, but he is also very mature and beautiful, dignified and holy. This is the senior in the mouth of that old nun? Erlang is also in a trance, is there no mistake?
Fortunately, Nyoa spoke at this time, "Nya has seen the archbishop!"
It's really true!
"No courtesy. Are these two teenagers Erlang and Anna from Tianchen Academy?"
"Yes!"
"Erlang, Anna, meet the archbishop!"
In the main hall, there were fourteen people in total, six people on the left and right in a row, just six men and six women, and behind the archbishop there was also a girl, only about twenty years old, blonde hair and blue eyes, skin as white as jade, delicate face. The Temple of Light is full of handsome guys and beauties, and most of the adults in these temples seem to be around thirty or forty years old? Well, Erlang also has to admit that after entering the Holy See of Light, his age can no longer be seen with his eyes, just like the fire dance that is at least two hundred years old, how is it maintained? Absorb the power of faith? Shake your head and smile.
Feeling that the cardinal archbishop seemed to be about to see through his eyes, Jiro looked calm and bowed deeply to her with Anna.
Archbishop Firedance nodded, "Della!"
"Here!" the woman behind her turned and came out of the line and came to the archbishop to salute.
"The Academy Alliance Competition is approaching, you can take a trip on behalf of the Holy See! Remember, you represent the Holy See of Light!"
"Yes, Archbishop!"
"Captain Fisher!"
"In!" said the first blonde man on his left hand to salute.
"Arrange for someone to accompany you and protect Della!"
"Yes!"
Out of the main hall and into the backyard, Nia pounced on Della without any image, and the two seemed to be close friends, so good that they could ignore the image.
Nia pulled Anna past her and introduced her to Dela, and the three girls became acquainted with each other. Erlang only followed quietly in the back and didn't say a word.
Della, double decade, oh, on the surface. At such an age, it represents the Temple of Light, and it seems that the status is not ordinary!
Then, Nia, a curious baby with a natural temperament, began to introduce the situation on the side of the Holy See. Although he is sometimes taken into the ditch by this woman, Tianxing Jiro is still extremely smart, and he has a general understanding of the outline of the matter.
This year's Academy Alliance Competition was held in the Water Moon Empire, and the Holy See of Light, as the number one force in the continent and a symbol of justice, naturally received an invitation. The other party is the Continental Academy Alliance, which can be regarded as one of the super forces, and it is impossible for the Bright Sect to refute the other party's face. It's just that the Holy See is in a hurry lately, the dark forces are about to move, and the general war has begun. The headquarters really didn't want to worry about these trivial matters, so they notified the Archbishop of Fire Dance and asked her to arrange to attend.
Della is a candidate for the Holy Maiden of the Holy See of Light, and a descendant of a super noble from the Empire of Light. The future Holy Maiden of Light, attending the Academy Alliance Competition as a special guest, can be regarded as a kind of goodwill from the Holy See for the Academy Alliance!
After doing it for a long time, she and Anna rubbed the light of the quasi-saint, so they were fortunate enough to use this teleportation array! Think about it, it's not a parent, Nia is just a junior, she shouldn't be able to use the teleportation array privately, right? But she knew about it, so she asked the bishop for help, and then this very kind and easy to get along with the archbishop of Fire Dance obviously didn't refute Ni Lao's face, or there was a historical factor in the middle.
He was walking in the corridor of the temple, when someone behind him shouted, "Dela!
As soon as a few people turned around, Della's face suddenly fell, why was it him again! The person who came was named Leo, the grandson of the head of Fisher, twenty-five years old this year, a high-level apprentice swordsman. Captain Fisher is the commander-in-chief of the Knights of Light here, and he is also one of the thirty-two Bronze Paladins of the Holy See of Light, a low-level swordsman, who is one hundred and one years old this year. This old man was born and died for the Holy See, and had no children under his knees, and a younger generation of the clan succeeded him and gave birth to a son, this Leo. Leo has a romantic nature, and when Della came to report from the headquarters on the first day, he was shocked and fell in love with her, and always wanted to find an opportunity to get close to Della. It's a pity that King Xiang is intentional, the goddess is unintentional, Della doesn't wait to see him, deliberately avoids him, and occasionally meets a few times, but they are also a little unhappy. When we met today, there happened to be a friend present, I don't know what kind of demon will be?
When I got close, this Leo looked like a talent, tall, with short blond hair, silver armor, a blue cloak, a white complexion, delicate eyebrows, and only his eyes flickered, occasionally mixed with some unconcealed desire.
"Dala, I heard that you will leave for the Water Moon Empire tomorrow, and grandpa ordered me to protect you closely!" Leo was a little apprehensive.
"Oh, close protection!" Nia looked at the smug Leo, and then at the disgusted Dela, the crooked gossip was out of bounds.
"Young Commander, is there anything else? if not, please take care of yourself!" said Della with a cold face.
"Okay, in that case, I'll see you tomorrow!" Leo turned to leave, and at that moment, Jiro clearly caught the hint of malicious mockery. Maybe this trip won't be so dull, right? Knights of Light, young leader, interesting!
