"Alone?"

Hearing Bishop Hegel's words, Jenn raised his eyebrows, and the first thing he thought of was the young man with the tablet of fate, what was his name?

"Yes."

Bishop Hegel nodded, and then continued.

"It doesn't hurt to tell you about this, as the Templar Order has decided to divide everyone into six teams, two of which will be tasked with heading to the Ice City to find the survivors. While the other four groups continue to delve in, investigating the truth about how the Wild West is shrouded in eternal night. ”

The City of Ice.

Hearing the name from Bishop Hegel, Jenn quickly remembered the city, the City of Ice in the Dragonclaw Mountains of the Western Wilderness, a city built on a hill like the City of Gold. He is also a member of the Ten Towns Alliance, a city that can be considered the vanguard of the Templar Order in the Wild West. Legend has it that the City of Ice was once rebuilt by a group of ascetics from a ruin halfway up the mountain. In the beginning, it was inhabited only by a group of ascetics who believed in the Nine Saints, and since it was still a barren land that had not yet been cultivated, many of the caravans that first entered the Western Wilderness rested there, and gradually the Ice City was built.

However, among the Ten Towns Alliance, the development of the Ice City is also the lagging behind, because it is located halfway up the mountain, and the climate there is cold all year round, and the storms are fierce, and it is even more difficult to walk in winter. Therefore, after the Four Seasons Trade Road was opened, there were basically no tourists in the Ice City. But even so, the Ice City didn't stop there. Especially after being recognized by the Templar Order, it became a sanctuary frequented by ascetics and clergy. It is not uncommon to see barefoot monks and believers in linen robes muttering prayers to themselves. A scene of climbing the "pilgrimage road" leading to the top of the mountain.

However, hearing Hegel talk about the City of Ice at this moment made Jenn a little surprised. It seems that it is not the young man who the other party wants to find by himself. Otherwise, it would be impossible to give yourself such a direction, the Ice City is located at the entrance to the Western Wilderness, and it is the second closest city to the outside entrance in the Ten Towns Alliance. And he got the Tablet of Destiny in the City of Tempest, and the two sides can be said to be 108,000 miles apart.

It seems that the Templar Order does not intend to involve itself and others.

Thinking of this, Jenn couldn't help but glance at Hegel, but thinking about it, he and the others were honored nobles, and they didn't really have a devout belief in the Templar. And the fate slate is a big thing, if it is not a trustworthy person. Naturally, the Templar Order could not have left such a thing to someone else to do. In case of any danger, the first thing that you and others think about is to leave your things and run away, rather than bringing back the Tablet of Destiny. Faced with such uncertainties, it is only natural that the Templar Order could not have entrusted them with such an important task.

But then again, Jenn was also quite curious about the person the Templar was looking for, knowing that in the current situation, even if it was just incidental, the fact that the Templar Order could divide into three groups to find him means that the person's identity must be unusual. At least it could never be a cardinal. Is it God's favor? But if it's a god's favor. The Templar Order already has quite a few of them, huh? Is it necessary to do this for the sake of a son of God? Or is there something else going on here?

Thinking of this, Jenn cleaned up his mood for a while, and then asked.

"Then there must be someone who sent to search for that lucky one. Otherwise, Bishop Hegel would not have wasted time talking about this. ”

"Exactly."

Hearing Jenn's words, Bishop Hegel's eyes lit up. Then he nodded. Looking at Jenn, there was a little more approval, and talking to smart people is simple. No wonder Howard wrote to himself with a tone of helplessness and admiration when he described the young man. Now Hegel finally understood Howard's feelings, dealing with such a brilliant young man. It's really comfortable. It's just that on the other hand, this sir's temper is really not small, if he doesn't make trouble, he will make a big fuss. It's hard to imagine how Howard's old guy put up with this young man.

"Then I suppose I should have the right to know what kind of person the other person is?"

Hearing Hegel's answer, Jenn shrugged his shoulders and asked.

"The people who can risk our lives to save......... It must be of this value, Bishop Hegel. But I'm curious about who in the Templar Order has that status? ”

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

Hearing this, Hegel was silent for a moment, and at last, he spoke.

"To tell you the truth, Sir Jenn, in fact we don't know the true identity of the other party, because this order came from the Central Bishopric."

"Oh?"

In the face of Hegel's answer, Jenn couldn't help but have a gleam in his eyes. The Centric Bishopric is the core body of the Templar Order, and it can be said that the entire Templar Church is the largest in the entire Templar Order, except for the Supreme Bishop and the Saint of Light above it. Any order they give cannot be disobeyed and must be done with every effort.

"I see......... But at least we should know who the other person is. And, if the other party is really that important, why not leave when the mutation occurs? If I remember correctly, most large cities should have teleportation arrays for teleportation in times of emergency. ”

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

In the face of Jenn's inquiry, Bishop Hegel's face showed a hint of hesitation.

"In fact, the Ice City did not set up a similar teleportation array, because the terrain there was rugged, and according to those mages, there seemed to be something in the local area that was interfering with the spatial fluctuations of teleportation, so it was impossible to set up a teleportation array, plus the monks themselves ........."

I see.

Hearing Bishop Hegel's answer, Jenn nodded. Although Bishop Hegel did not say it explicitly, he also guessed that the City of Ice had always been famous for its penance, otherwise the masochists would not be keen to climb those tens of thousands of steps every day. So there is no way to set up a teleportation array, but it is in line with the will of the group of masochists, of course they don't care about this kind of thing. But now it's good. I guess none of the idiots in the Ice City have escaped.

"So, what about our search and rescue targets?"

"I don't know the specifics. All we know is that it was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, who was supposed to be an orphan. Growing up in the City of Ice since childhood, she was supposed to be a priest in the Temple of the Goddess of Water. The name is .........."

At this point, Hegel paused.

“……… Valrhona. Trixien. ”

Valrhona. Trixien.

Jenn silently recited the name back and forth in his mind several times, but eventually shook his head, at least in his memory, as if he couldn't find anything related to it. The only catch is that the word Valrhona comes from the elemental language, which means "under the firmament", but that doesn't mean much. At most, it just shows that the person who named her is a bit cultured. After all, it's impossible for ordinary people to understand elemental language.

But then again.........

"A thirteen or fourteen-year-old priest girl? Are you really sure she's alive? ”

Jenn was only surprised by this, considering that it had been more than a month since the eternal night sky had shrouded the western wilderness, and the news from Elise was that almost all the cities had completely fallen. Even she and Sofina used to just do the work of sweeping the tail, even if it was a temple with divine protection, it was not infinite. Water and food were a big problem, and Elise even encountered a scene where refugees inside a temple attacked the priests in order to grab food, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides, and when Elise rushed open the temple door with thousands of monsters, she found that the people inside had almost died in cannibalism.

Apparently, Bishop Hegel had the same doubts. It's just that he can't say anything to Jenn at this moment.

"I don't know, but the order of the Central Bishops' Conference is to see people alive and corpses to die, no matter what. All of them are going to bring her back. ”

From Bishop Hegel, this was the only news that Jenn could get, and he chatted with the other party for a while. After confirming that he could not get any more information, Jenn got up to leave.

And when he left the bishop's room. Jenn immediately informed Enoa and the others about this through a telepathic connection. And when they heard the information. Almost everyone was taken aback.

"Master, do you really think that a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old will be able to support a month under the canopy of eternal night?"

Elise was the first to disbelieve in this possibility, if before this, she did not know much about the Eternal Night Sky, but now Elise has a deep understanding of how terrible the effect of the Eternal Night Sky is. In fact, even if you hide underground or hide in the temple, you are not completely immune to the spiritual suppression and spiritual consciousness of the Eternal Night Sky, but it can only be weakened. And even if the power of the Eternal Night Sky itself is weakened, it is simply unthinkable for a human spirit to hold on to such an environment for a month. Elise also knew this very well, you must know that several times after that, when she led the Chaos Monsters to attack those strongholds, the other party collapsed almost instantly, and before Elise could actually make a move, it was already scattered, and there was no threat at all. This also made Elise feel once again how fragile the human spirit is, even those spiritually resilient priests and warriors can't resist such an ordeal, is it possible for a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl to hold on for so long?

"You can't say that, after all, there are exceptions to everything........."

"So, master, do you need us to send someone to search the Ice City?"

"Of course."

In response to Enoa's inquiry, Jenn gave a natural answer.

"The fact that the Episcopal Conference named this girl to bring her back, and even gave such a rich reward, and did not hesitate to send high-ranking priests, including us, to rescue her shows that there must be something worth that girl deserves the attention of the Templar Order. Enoa, Elise, I want you to immediately take a team of dark elves to search in the Ice City, the other party is a follower of the goddess of water, Revinie, the goddess of water, first go to search the temple of the goddess of water, even if we can't find that girl, it doesn't matter, at least we need to know what kind of power that girl has, and why the Templar Order pays so much attention to her. ”

"And what about you, master?"

"Me?"

In the face of Enoa's inquiry, Jenn smiled slightly.

"As a nobleman entrusted by the Templar Order with a devout faith, of course I will fight to the end." (To be continued......)
