Chapter 410: The Beginning of Confusion

When they returned to Glowa, it was a completely different place.

If before Gerlova was a slightly deserted town, now it's a mess. As far as the eye can see, there are traces of the tsunami and the houses that have been washed away. The road in front of you is also uneven, and you can see the scars left after the earthquake everywhere.

"This ..............."

Seeing this scene, Qiao Sen and Carter couldn't help but be shocked, although they did feel the terrifying power in person, but they didn't expect it to be so powerful, you must know that there is a short distance from the Ice City to here, even if it is a powerful blow from a legendary powerhouse, it is absolutely impossible to reach such a far place. Only the battles between the gods in myths and legends could have had such tragic consequences.

Even the temple was not spared, on the contrary, as the tallest building in this town, it can be said that it bore the brunt of the attack, plus it had only been implicated in the battle between Jenn and a certain paladin, and it had not had time to repair it, resulting in the entire temple now being torn apart, and there was a scene of water and water everywhere. Jenn even saw that the atrium, where he had been in conflict with the idiot, had now been completely transformed into a small pond, completely submerged in the sea, and through the sea, he could even see a few fish swimming happily in it.

In a way, it's not a good view.

Obviously, though, not everyone is in the mood to enjoy such a view.

"I've heard the general story of what happened, I've heard from Knight Captain Josson."

Bishop Hegel, who appeared in front of Jenn and the others again, turned pale. He looked exhausted. Looking at the people in front of him, he didn't even have the mood to stand up and welcome their triumphant return. Instead, he smiled wryly and raised his hand to signal to them. Then he leaned back on the back of his chair in a dejected manner, looking exhausted.

It is no wonder that the Hegelian Archbishop felt so tired, considering that the shaking that took place in the western wilderness had affected the entire continent, and almost no part of the country was spared. The western wilderness has been hit by natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis and flash floods, and the damage has been devastated. Most rulers of this era always have a few strong men under their command, and with Vivien and Nabelius' shocks fluctuating so obviously, it only takes a little sense to know that the source of this devastating shock is the Wild West. In addition, the Order had previously summoned the clergy from the four neighboring dioceses to participate in the investigation mission, and the rulers of those regions naturally knew about this matter. At this moment, it is natural to associate these two things. In their opinion, the Templar Order must have done something to cause this state of affairs. For a time, the rulers of various nations sent emissaries to the Holy State of Seth to demand an explanation of what they had done, and to tell them exactly what had happened in the Wild West.

The problem was that the Templar Order itself was also confused about this, and the rear was busy trying to appease the angry envoys. And in this case, Archbishop Hegel, who was the head of the front, also suffered. Anyone who is not stupid knows that no one could have expected such a thing to happen, and the information the Templar Order has received before does not indicate a similar situation. After all, they don't know anything about that wilderness now. In this case, it is normal for anything to arise.

But the problem is that there are always people who need to take the blame. So Bishop Hegel was pushed out and put on the back of this big black cauldron of stainless steel. This also made him feel Alexander, and the rear asked him all day long to see how the situation was going. But Bishop Hegel himself didn't know what was going on in the western wilderness, so he couldn't make it up!

And because of that. After receiving the news of Jossen's safe return, Archbishop Hegel was completely relieved, although Jossen and his party also suffered a lot of losses, but they were the first people to come out of the western wilderness alive, not to mention that they also brought back the girl named Valrhona safely, which was considered a successful completion of the mission of the Central Episcopal Order. Although Bishop Hegel was also a little surprised when he saw Valrhona, but after all, he had seen the world, and he didn't react much to it, but quickly ordered the nuns to take Valrhona down to rest, and then listened to Jossen's report on the whole thing behind closed doors, and then came out to meet with Jenn and the others.

"First of all, I would like to congratulate you on your success in fulfilling the sacred mission entrusted to you by the Templar Order, which was a difficult, difficult, and dangerous task, but you have managed to overcome all the difficulties and bring back this Holy Lady for us. On behalf of the Templar Order, I extend to you the highest respect and gratitude. ”

Speaking of this, Bishop Hegel's face finally showed a little smile, although several other teams have not yet been contacted, but now, Jenn and the others have successfully brought back Valrhona, which can be regarded as making him feel a lot more relaxed, if there is no response from the Western Wilderness, and Valrhona has not brought it out, then his side will really suffer. And now......... This credit also bought Bishop Hegel some respite from being really unlucky.

However, this is also limited.

"I've already heard from Knight Captain Jossen about Noan."

At this, Bishop Hegel's face became gloomy again. It's no wonder that the investigation team sent by the Templar hides cultists who collude with the devil. And this is not recruited by them, but by the people recommended by the nature temple, this is a very serious situation, you must know that Noan is a hero of the elf race, and the people who recommended him at the beginning are all respected people in the nature temple, if they are really involved with the demons and degenerate, then whether it is for the elves, or for the nature temple, or even for the templar order, it is definitely a stain.

In fact, after receiving the report from Knight Chief Jossen about Noan, Bishop Hegel had already made immediate contact with the Templar headquarters. And it was reported. The headquarters was more nervous about this than Bishop Hegel. After all, the Templar Order is also an organization composed of people, and where there are people, it is impossible for people to be free from the struggle for power and profit. If this is true. Then there is a good chance that there will be a big purge at the top of the temple, and the relationship between humans and elves is quite ordinary, such a sensitive matter will definitely bring more trouble, but ......... This has nothing to do with Hegel.

"I want to ..............."

"We don't have much interest in that half-elf mongrel."

However, before Bishop Hegel could finish his words, he was interrupted by Jenn.

"Anyway, you have to say that he was seduced by the demons because of his weakness, but this is also a common disease of all creatures, just like birth, old age, sickness and death, and it has nothing to do with me whether you plan to whip the corpse or bury that guy. There is only one thing I am concerned about, and that is whether the reward promised to us by the Templar will change as a result. You shouldn't be able to pay your bills. ”

Hearing Jenn's words, Carter also looked at him with a bit of admiration, knowing that he was not interested in Bishop Hegel's nonsense, in fact, after losing so many men, he only hoped that the Templar Order would fulfill its promise, instead of finding all kinds of excuses to shirk.

However, Carter didn't expect Jenn to be so faceless to the Templar Order, to put it bluntly. In fact, he has little interest in what happened to Noan. The latter had obviously been crushed to smith by that terrible dragon, wasting time on a dead man was something unnecessary and meaningless, wasn't it?

"Of course we're not going to pay off."

Bishop Hegel was also accustomed to Jenn's straightforward way of speaking. So in the face of Jenn's inquiry, he just smiled bitterly. Then an answer was given.

"But before I do that, I have one more thing to confirm with you."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Jenn raised his eyebrows.

"What's the matter?"

"About the dragon."

Said here. Hegel's face was also much more serious.

"According to Captain Josson, you've been met with a terrible one. A dragon like never before......... What do you guys think of that dragon? ”

"It's scary."

In response to Hegel's inquiry, Carter also nodded gloomily. Although he is also a hero who has been famous for a long time, he still feels his body tremble when Carter thinks about the dragon. Carter didn't even sleep well in the carriage for the past two days, as long as he closed his eyes, the image of the giant dragon would appear in front of him, and he even dreamed of the terrible nightmare of the other party suddenly appearing from the sky and opening his bloody mouth to devour himself. This has kept Carter from resting well for the past few days, and I'm afraid that for a long time, he can't expect to get a good night's sleep.

"I've never seen a dragon like that, that terrible might......... Bishop Hegel, if you don't see it with your own eyes, I'm afraid you can't understand that it's not a wurm, it's not the black dragon that we have entrenched in the Doomsday Mountains, but something much bigger, more terrifying............... How to say ..............."

At this, Carter frowned and hesitated for a moment before continuing.

"It's like......... It's like some kind of god that can dominate and destroy everything, and just seeing it makes it impossible to raise any will to resist......... All in all, I'm never going to fight a monster like that, because that's just death. ”

"Ditto."

In response to Carter's remarks, Jenn just shrugged his shoulders and didn't say much. Hearing their answers, Hegel was silent for a moment before continuing.

"Knight Captain Josson thinks that the impact that happened after that was caused by the dragon fighting something, do you have any thoughts on this?"

"I don't have any ideas............

Carter shook his head at Hegel's inquiry, but Jenn was silent before speaking.

"I have some opinions.........

"Oh?"

"I think Mr. Carter may remember that before that, we were chased by Noan, and that arrogant guy opened the gates of the Netherworld, summoning the fire demon and a whole bunch of monsters, and it was a lot of fun, and the reason why the dragon came was obviously attracted by Noan's idiot. Bishop Hegel, you also know very well that Noan is a killer, not a mage, I guess he doesn't even understand the nature of the otherworldly passage, but he can open the passage to the lower realm, which means that behind him there should be a being who is very familiar with the crossing plane, and ..............."

"So what do you mean......... Is it likely that the presence behind Noan appeared and fought with the dragon? ”

"I'm just guessing it's a possibility."

Jenn shrugged.

"After all, I didn't see that guy summon any demon king with my own eyes, and he was busy running for his life at the time, who cares about this?"

This was the art of language in Jenn, who had long guessed that Bishop Hegel would definitely tempt them with a spell like Lie Detection, but Jenn didn't care. The lies of the demons are not so easy to debunk, although Jenn is indeed lying, but in fact, Hegel is completely unaware of any anomaly.

This was because Jenn didn't say anything definitely, and it was true that he had first said that Nabelius was attracted to Noan. After that, he only said that there was a possibility that Noan would fight the dragon behind him, and in fact that it was. As for what Jenn said later, it is naturally easy to understand, Hegel thought that the "this" that Jenn said meant the dragon, but in fact, the "this" that Jenn said referred to the demon king behind Noan. Because he is indeed indifferent to this, even if he uses the detection of lies, it is absolutely impossible for Hegel to get any reaction that Jenn is lying.

Secretly changing concepts, being ambiguous, and selectively saying some of the facts, this is exactly the way the demons are best at using.

"I see."

Since he had not received any useful information from Jenn and Carter, Hegel nodded. Then he stood up and clapped his hands. Soon, the door to the study opened, and several clerics walked in with velvet cushions in their hands, on which lay a white box and a gilded scroll of paperwork bearing the heraldic seal of the Templar Order. Seeing these things, Carter and Barty, who had been standing next to him nervously, both widened their eyes, and even their breathing became much shorter. Even Jenn raised his eyebrows after seeing this, revealing a somewhat amused smile.

Bishop Hegel walked past his desk to the priests, and then paused, looking up at the crowd before him, and then smiled.

"Well, then, this is the agreed reward, the Templar Order." (To be continued......)
