Chapter 91: The Night of Crying

ps: Fix typos. ๏ฟกโˆ

The players who stepped out of the gate of the town hall began to look at me, I look at you, and for a moment fell into a strange speechlessness. The experience tonight is really incredible, even if it is a dream, you shouldn't open such a big brain hole.

'Smart people' who have too many scruples are sometimes imprisoned by their own ideas. On the contrary, it was a little guy like Lalu who had no heart and lungs on weekdays who was not affected. After frowning and looking around at the crowded squares and streets outside the town office, the cat boy pulled the corner of Rieli's clothes and asked, "Lily! Where do we go next? We won't be spending the night out tonight like they did! โ€

After saying this, Lalu also stretched out his hand and pointed to the refugees around him. After fleeing the fires and attacks, the aborigines in front of them were covered in dust and a disgusting stench.

Several women in the team looked at each other, and they didn't know what kind of association they had, but in short, Barrett clearly felt that they couldn't help but shiver a few times.

"Lalu is right, we should now find a suitable place to stay." Barrett, who nodded, turned his gaze to Klymatis. "The Church of the Goddess of Wealth and Commerce would not have seen its missionary pastor and her companions end up on the streets! Not to mention that we have now accepted the assignment of the Battle League. โ€

After hearing Barrett's statement, Clematis. Bot immediately raised his willow eyebrows: "You don't plan to live in the temple, do you!" โ€

"Is there anything you can't do?" Barrett touched his chin, "I remember that most temples have spare stone rooms for outside friends!" And the Church of the Goddess of Wealth and Commerce can be said to be better in this regard, isn't it? In order to win over your potential customers, you have always been known for your hospitality. โ€

"That's right." Rielly, who was touching her chin, looked at her captain slightly defiantly: "But Barrett, you think you're a big bunch of us. Is it possible to enter the client category of the Goddess of Wealth and Business? โ€

"Why not! Especially in today's Port of Voltertha. We're big customers. Barrett smiled triumphantly as he said this.

It seems to be remembering Clematis. Bot nodded in realization: "Barrett is right! The church's criteria for judging are flexible. In the eyes of those above, whoever can bring benefits to them is the best customer. And the content of the deal also includes force. โ€

"The port of Walter, which had experienced the previous catastrophe, now lacks the most is military support. With the strength of a few of us, although it is not the top here, at least it is also in the second echelon among the free personnel. As long as the people in the temple are not confused, they should not refuse our request. And I don't believe that the Church of the Goddess of Wealth and Commerce was completely unaware of the actions of the Battle League in this case. Barrett said as a matter of course.

Rielly touched Lalu's head: "This aspect of the matter is really clear to the hard-working party like you. I won't say anything about this kind of thing in the future. โ€

"That's right! Have you forgotten about the noodles? He's still in the temple of the Lord of Justice! Since we are all going to the temple of the goddess of wealth and commerce, it is better to arrange for someone to bring him out first. Claudia suddenly interjected. Auditore spoke a harsh reality.

Although the priest of the Platinum Dragon Church was a few eye-catchers in the previous battle, the church itself did not have a separate temple in Port Volta. As a result, Noodles will have to choose the resurrection temple on their own, just like Rieli (if there is a church temple in the city, it is forced to resurrect in the temple of the same faith).

Perhaps it is because of the good relationship between the Church of the Platinum Dragon and the Church of the Lord of Justice. Or maybe it's a good impression of the Church of the Just Lord since entering the game. At that time, Noodle, who had already fallen into a nervous breakdown, subconsciously chose the temple of the Church of the Lord of Justice as the location of his resurrection.

However, after the resurrection, he became a little confused, and he had to miss the previous battle to defend the administrative district. It's just that I don't know if the trap expert in the team has calmed down the excitement after a few hours of calming down.

"Hurry up and get someone! Before, the situation was urgent, but now that we have time, we teammates naturally have to enlighten and enlighten the noodles, lest it be bad for him to do stupid things alone. "It's not just lip service, Barrett is really worried that the noodles will disappear from the game completely because of tonight's blow!

Claudia. Auditore pointed to the group of refugees in front of him and said, "Then Barrett, you can open the way ahead!" You can't let us delicate girls squeeze out a passage! โ€

I looked at the lady behind me, and I looked at the refugees in front of me! Barrett flicked his neck: "Then follow me!" โ€

In the end, Barrett relied on the strong sense of oppression brought by his tall stature to make a way out of the crowd. In fact, many Aboriginal people will subconsciously back away when they see Barrett approaching like them. As a pioneer, he didn't actually put much effort into it.

The Temple of the Lord of Justice, one of the most common shrines in the 6 Western Greats. Regardless of what the rulers actually think of them. But both for its practicality and for window dressing, it will allow them to have a place in the colony of intelligent beings.

The Temple of the Lord of Justice in front of you is not only much smaller than the cities the players have visited before, but it also looks a little shabby. But according to the administrative level of the town of Walterham. But it's barely suitable.

It seems that because of the previous attack and the subsequent wave of refugees, the guards outside the temple of the Lord of Justice have also become extremely tight. Far from the gate of the temple. A paladin in silver and shining armor was the first to speak: "Gentlemen and ladies in front, please indicate your intentions. In the current situation. We hope that you will not cause unnecessary misunderstandings because of certain actions. โ€

"I'm Barrett of House Boreham! One of our companions had a friend who had lost control while breaking through the docks. For the time being, I stayed in your church to cultivate. We're here to see how he's doing. "Barrett, who had already anticipated this situation. Halfway through, he took out the family heraldic shield that represented his identity. If it weren't for his identity, he wouldn't have been able to obtain the ring, and eighty percent would have been worn by him.

After briefly examining Barrett and the token in his hand, the paladin in front of him turned his gaze to his companions behind Barrett. Barrett understood that the other party was probably using the paladin ability of detecting evil.

Of course, from the point of view of the detected party, the behavior of the paladin in front of him is also very rude - it is a bit like the first time you meet someone starts to investigate your **.

Unlike the equivalent spells cast by mages and other professions, the paladin's ability to detect evil is silent, not to mention, and does not require any special movements - it is naturally extremely hidden. If you are a holy warrior who is proficient in this way, you can even determine whether the person in front of you is in the evil camp by a glance.

However, the world is not black and white, and it is often impossible for a city to thrive without certain gray areas. Once some of these guys are red by the holy warriors, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

So in the vast majority of cities. They all have laws that prohibit any faction-detecting spells or abilities. Although it seems to be the same for those who possess this ability, it is actually aimed at the group of holy warriors.

After that, the law that is punished after violating it is the law. If it is difficult to punish, then the law is nothing more than a piece of waste paper. Professions such as mages and priests should be careful when using detection abilities or find someone to take cover, but it is difficult to be seen in ordinary cities. Not to mention what punishment to receive.

So for them, this law doesn't actually have much of a deterrent effect. Even if someone is caught, the amount of fines involved is often not very large.

However, this is not the case for the Paladins, who are the two pillars of order and kindness that give them strength. Either of these problems will cause the paladin to lose his ability - to fall.

And violating the law is a deviation from the order. If the chaotic and kind volunteers would carry out actions such as the liberation of slaves under the slogan of illegality. The orderly, virtuous paladins had to fight against the law of sin itself - breaking the old order and creating a new one.

And on weekdays, the holy warriors often don't know either. In what number of illegal use of detection evil behavior will cause oneself to be abandoned by the forces of order? Such a law was indeed a strong shackle for the holy warriors.

Maybe it's because of the pressure from the church, of course. Or maybe it's to make good use of the powerful church armament of the Holy Warriors. Laws that prohibit any detection of faction-type spells or abilities often have a series of supplementary provisions. Under certain circumstances, the paladins were able to temporarily remove this shackle - perhaps this is the final result of a compromise between ideals and reality.

It is precisely because he knows what kind of responsibilities and burdens these holy warriors are shouldering in front of him. Barrett will ignore the other party's rude behavior, when nothing has been done.

"You're welcome." As if he had completed his mission, the paladin then asked, "Mr. Boram, who is your companion?" There are also quite a few warriors cultivating in the temple tonight. After all, the priests' limited magic could not cure them all. โ€

"My companion is a halfling wanderer." Speaking of this, Barrett added as if to prevent misunderstanding, "He is a good wanderer who believes in the Platinum Dragon Temple." โ€

"I remember who you're talking about. Now the priest of the famous platinum dragon god is accompanying him inside! With that, the paladin turned and beckoned to Barrett and his party, "Come with me, a few of you!" Tonight's temple has a special reality, and outsiders are not allowed to enter and leave freely without guidance. โ€

"Extraordinary times do extraordinary things, and what you do is understandable." Barrett, who shrugged his shoulders, understood. After all, in the current situation, the actions of the Lord of Justice Temple are responsible for their lives and those who are injured in it.

After handing over to the other two paladins, the one in front of him led Barrett and his party into the temple of the Lord of Justice. And until you step through the doors of the temple. Barrett realized that the situation was even worse than the paladin had previously introduced.

Even in the corridors, you can see the wounded who have fallen to the ground and let out a burst of wails. There is not even a single regular soldier involved in guarding the security of the administrative region tonight. These untrained civilians and adventurers may be able to fight their way with the help of spells. But after the pain, he could not endure it silently.

The reason why the Viscount of the "Golden Thorn Bird" arranged these wounded people in the temple of the Lord of Justice. I'm afraid I also want to use the effective soundproofing spell in the temple. Stop their wails from spreading further! That's for the already demoralized civilians in the borough. It's a sharp knife stuck in the chest. It may even cause further panic.

"Mr. Barrett, please hurry. Watch your feet and not disturb these warriors who have fought all night for the safety of civilians. The voice of the paladin leading the way in front of him was heard again.

Although the area of this temple is not large, it is built with twists and turns to make it easy to defend the passages inside. After a few turns, the players finally arrive at the stone room where the noodles are temporarily housed.

However, after entering the stone room, the player's eyes were attracted by the tall dragon priest in front of them. In the previous battle, he cast the blessing of the platinum dragon god, and I don't know how many aboriginal lives were saved. And the golden breath that gushed out of his mouth from time to time also greatly relieved the pressure on the front line.

Up close, players are confronted with a sturdy nine-foot-tall dragon man with lizard-like claws and toes, thin dragon-like wings, and a short, stiff tail. Bronze scales cover the face with amber eyes

It is extremely eye-catching.

"Hello! Shepherd of the platinum dragon god, may the good will spread all over the Great 6. Barrett, who had led the group, immediately bent down and saluted. The identity of the other party and what he has done before. It is worth Barrett to make such a move.

"Heroic adventurers, your heroic appearance on the battlefield is truly impressive." The dragonman in front of him said with his big mouth full of scales.

"Compared to your contributions, our little bit of expression is really nothing." Barrett responded humbly.

"For your age, you're doing a great job." The dragonman touched his paws, then pointed to the noodles lying on the bed, "This believer of my lord is your companion?" โ€

"Yes! Priest, he is a companion who has gone with us from the kingdom of Nohan. Barrett scratched his head embarrassedly, "I didn't expect to encounter such a sudden attack when I went out of the hall tonight." If I had been with them, maybe there wouldn't have been such a tragedy. โ€

The noodle in Barrett's eyes was now lying sideways on the stone bed in the room. With his back to Barrett and his party, he left the players with only a lonely back. Even when he heard the words of his companions, he remained motionless. It's as if the end of the Qiฤ“ has lost contact with him.

The dragon priest scratched the scales on the back of his head with his paw and said, "As you can see, this parishioner is in a very bad situation. Although I have now calmed his mind with divine magic. But in the end, I can't guarantee whether it will be fully recovered. โ€

"Is the situation so severe?" Hearing this, Barrett knew that what was in front of him was a big deal.

"You must know that this kind of psychological wound is the most difficult to recover. After all, the minds of intelligent beings are changing all the time. It is difficult to achieve results with ordinary means. Speaking of this, the dragon priest seemed to remember something, "Of course, I have heard that there are some experts who manipulate and influence the mind, but it is not easy to find them. โ€

"An expert in manipulating and influencing the mind? Do you mean the Psychic Warlock? Barrett, who immediately sounded from the other party's statement, shook his head helplessly, "The reputation of this profession is not good in the big 6." Even if they are relied on by the organization, they often hide their true identity from the outside world. It's not easy to ask them for help. โ€

Unlike mages, psychic sorcerers use abilities known as psychic abilities. This ability originates from the cultivation of one's own spiritual ability through long-term strict self-examination and mental training. The psychic warlock Tong Guรฒ constantly studied his own psychic consciousness to tap into a wider range of powerful spiritual powers.

In the process, the Psychic Sorcerers meditate on their own memories and the nature of their memories, argue with fragments of their own personalities, and delve into every dark corner of their hearts. Only the victor who overcomes the demons and all kinds of unexpected difficulties, and dispels the distractions in his heart, can truly grasp this power.

Within this group, good psychic sorcerers are acutely aware of the effects that unethical use of psychic abilities can have on the minds of their recipients. So they only use their abilities to attack an enemy's mind when they have to, and try to minimize the amount of infiltration.

However, evil psychic sorcerers are not so disturbed by mental violence at all, and even if they pollute the souls of those who stand in their way, they only take it as proof of the superiority of their own spiritual powers.

It is precisely because of the unscrupulous behavior of those evil minds that this group has become famous on the Big 6. At the same time, they are always in a situation of disregard among the intelligent races - the ability to be good at enslaving others is always unwelcome.

'If I remember correctly, House Bolim has a complete lineage of psychic magicians. However, whether there are any existing psychic warlocks in the family is not something I can find out now. Touching his chin, Barrett couldn't think of anything to do, so he could only think of the dragon priest in front of him and asked for help: "Lord Reverend! If I'm not mistaken, Jewel Dragons and Jewel Descendant Dragonmen are both natural psychic users. I think the prestige of His Highness the Platinum Dragon should be able to build a channel for them to ask for help. โ€

Pastor Dragonman was very embarrassed and said, "I can try, but you must know that it is not an easy thing to do. So I don't dare to make any guarantees. And even if you invite users of psychic powers, you will be paid for them. โ€

"Is there a reward for dragons or dragonborns?" After hearing this, not only Barrett, but even the two wealthy ladies behind him twitched their faces and felt pain.

After the players bit their ears again, Claudia, the money bag in the team. Auditore made the decision: "Yes Mr. Priest, we will take care of the medical bills of our own teammates. โ€

"You wait until tomorrow when you pray, and I'll prepare a special magic technique. I hope the right psychic users will answer my call! After getting the response he wanted, Priest Dragonman seemed to feel a lot more relaxed.

"That's right! If you don't mind, you can use this room with me tonight. Speaking of this, the dragonman blinked, "After all, it is not easy to find a familiar place to rest at such a time. โ€

Claymatis. Bot preemptively replied: "Since it was your invitation, we will not refuse." โ€

As a priest, she knows a few things about the practices in the Church of the Goddess of Wealth and Commerce. Instead of meeting your own church, you might as well stay here!

Tired players slept until noon. At this time, on the square of the administrative district, the Viscount of the "Golden Thorn Bird" was making his speech. He is more graceful, more stable, and more confident than last night.

"Once again, thank you to all of you for agreeing to be here and to listen to me. I chose this time for only one reason โ€“ everyone here now, myself included, has been persecuted, whether we realize it or not. I have lived in Port Volta all my life, and as much as I love this city, I must admit it, and you must admit it, that we have lost the peace and serenity of our past, and we have only continued suffering. Fear should not be a part of a life to look forward to, but it now sends fear to our doorstep every night. (To be continued!)
