Chapter 60: The Church Comes to the Door

Arthur stood in the courtyard and watched Huey and Golly in a daze.

Arthur had been restless all morning, and the injuries on his face and wrist had almost recovered from Nini's treatment. As for the cause of the injury, he also found a reason to prevaricate, but the crisis has not really been resolved, and the Church of Light may come to the door at any time.

It was at this time that the noisy quarrel in front of the Kingdom Post House came in.

"This is the inn of the Isaac Kingdom, and you punishment knights have no right to enter and search. ”

"Where the light shines, there is a place where divine punishment can come, and I suspect that your inn harbors dark magicians, and if you dare to stop it, you will be treated as harboring heresy. ”

Then there were the sounds of fighting and screams.

Huey and Golly had stopped sparring, looking at Arthur with inquiring eyes.

Arthur's face was expressionless, but his hand unconsciously clenched the hilt of the sword.

At this moment, a group of punishment knights broke into the side courtyard of the inn, and the cross coat of arms on the silver armor and the flame pattern on the cloak were extremely dazzling.

"Who is Arthur Shirlo. The chief knight who led the team swept his gaze to several young people in the courtyard.

"I am. Arthur stepped forward and said lightly.

"We suspect that you have something to do with the necromantic incident that happened some time ago, and now we are going to take you back for investigation. ”

"What if I say no. ”

Almost as soon as these punishment knights broke into the courtyard, Arthur made the decision to resist, even if he couldn't escape the battle and die.

The chief knight smiled coldly, "No one can say no in front of the punishing knight, take it away." ”

The knight's long words fell, and the two punishment knights behind him directly shook the silver chains in their hands and stepped forward.

This is the consistent style of the Inquisition to punish knights, and when confronted with heresy and suspicion, they always directly arrest people.

As soon as Arthur's sword was raised, a figure rushed past Arthur, and with two bangs, two punishment knights fell back.

"Get rid of them all, I'll break out with you!" Huey turned back to ask Arthur for his attitude.

Arthur's heart was hot, and he took the initiative to attack the knight of punishment, and Huey carried the disaster with himself.

The knight chief was startled, took two steps back, and shouted: "Hurry up and ask for help, the other party has resisted!"

These punishment knights who broke in knew that the person they wanted to arrest was a student who participated in the Imperial Elite Academy Challenge, and if the other party tried to resist, it was naturally not something that ordinary knights like them could win.

"You take someone to step down, and I'll take care of the rest of the rest. A deep voice suddenly sounded from outside the side courtyard door.

As the words fell, a middle-aged man in a golden cloak and silver knight's armor walked in, followed by two civilian warriors and a female priest.

All the punishment knights present immediately turned around and gave the middle-aged man a standard knightly salute, "Deputy Head Froome." ”

The other party really came prepared, and the deputy heads of the major knight orders of the church were all martial artists and magicians above level ten. The trio behind Froome is the Church Battle-Fighting Division.

Arthur glanced at Huey with a wry smile, the other party actually dispatched a general-level warrior for himself, and this time even the two of them couldn't break out.

"If you don't resist, you still have a chance to come out of the Inquisition alive, and if you do, I don't mind sending a corpse to the Inquisition for heresy. Froome said with a cold face.

Golly also suddenly jumped in front of Arthur, "Let's stop him, you find a chance to rush out." ”

Nini, who was behind Arthur, also raised her staff and took on a fighting pose.

The little witch Becky scratched her head and muttered, "Although I don't know why I suddenly have to fight with the Punishment Knight, I still owe Arthur money, and it's not good if I don't help at this time, let's go too." ”

Froome sneered and rubbed his wrist, "What a bunch of imps who don't know how to die, if I only use one hand, it's not a bully for you, right?"

Froome had just taken a step forward when an arm-thick flash of lightning suddenly fell from the sky.

Froome scurried back, lightning blasting a blackened crater out from under his feet.

"If you want to beat the younger one, ask the old one if you agree, and let a group of you go up together isn't it bullying you to punish the knights, right?" Austin pushed the door and walked out of the house.

Froome stared at Austin with a wary gaze, a thunder-based archmage was definitely a super terrifying existence.

"Do you want to openly stand up to the Church of Light?"

"I'm protecting my students, what do you mean by the Punishment Knight suddenly arresting the students of the Isaac Kingdom who participated in the Imperial Elite Academy Challenge?"

Froome pointed at Arthur, "We suspect that this student of your academy is related to the dark mage, and we want to take him back for interrogation." ”

"What about the evidence? If there is evidence, I won't stop you from taking Arthur away. ”

"Do we need evidence to arrest people in the Inquisition?"

"You don't need to arrest ordinary people, but today you are arresting the students of our Blood Yao Academy and the canonized nobles of the Isaac Kingdom, if you don't have evidence, get out!"

Froome's hand slowly rested on the hilt of the sword, but he couldn't pull it out, he didn't have the slightest confidence in Austin, but he was unwilling to retreat.

"If you want to arrest someone, hurry up, if you don't dare, hurry up!" An even more impudent voice suddenly sounded from behind Froome.

Enraged, Froome turned around and was slowly drawing his sword. When he saw the young man in white holding the magic scroll, Froome had already drawn half of his sword and put it back again.

"Your Highness Eleven, this matter has nothing to do with you, and please do not meddle in the affairs of the church. ”

Joan's face was rarely full of anger, and she felt guilty for letting Arthur be attacked and taken away by the church last night, but she didn't expect the church to take the initiative to come to her door now.

"Arthur is a member of my hunting team, and if your inquisition wants to arrest Arthur, you must first ask me if I agree?"

Froome looked embarrassed, "Your Highness, you have made it difficult for me to do this, and it will also make it difficult for the Emperor and the Pope to look ugly. ”

Joan sneered, "Ugly, then is this Empire of Light the Emperor's or your Church of Light?"

Froome immediately stopped talking, how dare he talk nonsense about the struggle between royal power and divine power. There has always been a delicate balance between the emperor and the pope, and if neither of them intends to break this balance, all those who dare to stir up trouble in the middle are victims who can be sacrificed for the sake of the overall situation.

"Since you have a hard time, then I will send you back. Joan suddenly ripped open the scroll in her hand, and a huge fire dragon roared towards Froome.

Froome was worthy of being a warrior, and the long sword at his waist was instantly unsheathed, turning into a huge lightsaber several feet long and slashing towards the dragon's head.

With a sword slash, the huge dragon head was split in two, and the bursting flames turned into countless sparks scattered in stars.

As soon as Froome breathed a sigh of relief in his chest, a flash of lightning fell from the sky, and the Austin Grand Magician struck.

Froome swung his lightsacer and slashed at the electric light, and as soon as the sword slashed the electric light, the second and third paths fell one after another, followed by the fourth, fifth, and sixth paths, one faster than the other, and one thicker than the other, which was the tenth-level thunder magic "Heavenly Thunder Nine Falls".

After Froome dodged the seventh, he could no longer dodge the two thick electric lights that fell almost simultaneously behind him.

Froome trembled and smelled of burning, but he still held on with his sword and did not fall.

"I remember you!" Froome glared at Austin again before suddenly swooping off.
