Chapter 5: The Bright Eye

After a long hesitation, Cardinal Ishtar took out a pendant with great care. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThree magic gold cylinders covered with sacred patterns form a triangle, and in the center of the triangle is a large amber opal. This pendant, made to represent the symbol of the Lord of Light, hangs from the top of a chain made of Mithril.

The "Eye of Light" is one of the seven secret treasures bestowed by the Lord of Light on the Holy See during the Great War of the Races, and is said to be blessed by the divine power of the Lord of Light. The Eye of Light is a secret treasure specially created with the oracle technique, the secret of the Holy See, after paying a certain price, through the blessing of the eye of light, the success rate of using the oracle technique is 100%.

Archbishop Ishtar clasped the Eye of Light in his palm, recited a mantra of the oracle in his mouth, and looked deep into the far north.

With the sound of his incantation, the opal-shaped eyes of the Eye of Light suddenly opened, emitting a mysterious green light, and several mysterious messages burrowed into Istta's mind.

After receiving the message, Archbishop Ishta's old face showed a look of surprise. The oracle gave him a clear hint that being in the far north was the key to breaking out of the current difficult situation.

For a full fifteen years, without the strong support of the Holy See Headquarters, the younger generation of the Imperial Branch has not yet grown up, and Archbishop Ishtar is struggling to support the Holy See Branch in the treacherous Imperial Capital. Defeat after defeat made Archbishop Ishta, who was supposed to be in the prime of life, look old.

Perhaps as His Majesty Gyllenhaal said of Ista by His Crown, "more than conservative, not enough aggressive." "This kind of intrigue politics really doesn't suit him.

Now that he has finally waited for the hope of reviving the branch of the Holy See, Archbishop Isha is a little excited and can't help himself, maybe it is really time to break the situation.

"Dylan, is Dylan here?" exclaimed Archbishop Ishtar, losing his composure.

"Always at your command. Following Istah's call, a chubby middle-aged priest appeared on the stairs of the observatory.

Dylan Bertres, nicknamed the "Eliad Hound", controls the "Stalker", the intelligence agency of the Holy See's Imperial Branch, and all the information he has is stored in his "information bag" that has used space magic.

"Dylan, did you feel the fluctuation just now?" asked Archbishop Ishta.

"Your Majesty, according to my intelligence, it should be in Greenland County in the north of the empire, and more detailed information has not yet been delivered, I believe it should be on the edge of the Warcraft Forest. Presenter Dylan replied respectfully.

"Who is the supreme head of the Holy See in the North?" asked Archbishop Ishta, calming down his slightly distracted agitation.

"In accordance with your decree, Cardinal Olufi is in charge of patrolling the north. Priest Dylan replied without thinking.

"Olufi's boy?" Ishtar thought for a moment with his eyes closed, "Greenland, I think there's a part of O'Brid's territory?"

"You're so knowledgeable. Dylan said with a smile on his face, "To be exact, only the small town of Flossaken, which is close to the Warcraft Forest, is the territory of the O'Bright family. ”

"Approaching the Monster Forest?Could it be that the energy fluctuations are coming from there?, could it be too much of a coincidence?" Archbishop Ishtar asked thoughtfully.

"No specific message has come yet, but the general direction is over there. Presenter Dylan replied with a hunched back.

"Was the light of the Lord shining there?"

"There was a small church, and the person in charge of the church was an elderly pastor named Fren. ”

"I don't think I've heard of it. ”

"Old Fren was only in high office because he was in charge of presiding over the parish that no one wanted to go to, and in fact he was only a priest. Dashan replied scoffingly, trying to hide his jealousy of Bishop Flren. He was a seventh-level priest who had not yet mixed with the bishop of a diocese, so how could that old man be so lucky to become a bishop of the diocese.

"Speaking of the parish that no one wants to go to, I remember, isn't that ninth-level guardian knight Vincent from there?"

"You remember right. ”

"Is he back there? I remember the last time he came to debrief was a year ago. ”

"No, he is still stranded in the imperial capital. ”

"Why?" asked Archbishop Ishta, frowning.

"After his debriefing last year, the adults of the Council of Light thought that it was too wasteful for a ninth-level knight to stay in that remote place, so they kept him and currently served as an instructor of the Knights of Light. Bishop Dylan sensed the cardinal's displeasure and cautiously explained.

"Those guys from the Council of Light......" Archbishop Ishtar was rather speechless, the Council of Light was a deformed product of the Holy See after the weakening of the Empire's control, and was the result of the compromise of the Holy See branch to the Empire. All worldly matters in the Holy See are discussed and decided by the Council of Light.

There are a total of nine members of the Council of Light, although the Holy See nominally occupies five of the seats, and the others are elected by the Empire's prominent families, but in fact, the five members of the Holy See also have many unexplained transactions with the Empire in secret.

"Dylan, send me an order for Olufe to go to Greenland County as soon as possible to find any clues about the energy fluctuations just now. I give him the right to act cheaply, and to find out at all costs the cause of the two successive energy fluctuations just now. "Bishop Isha has finally made up his mind.

"Obey the law. But shouldn't Cardinal Olufi be given an assistant?" Didlan's Priest cautioned.

"Why don't you take this opportunity to let Vincent go north to help investigate ......," Archbishop Ista was just halfway through his sentence when he was rudely interrupted by Priest Dylan.

"With all due respect, Your Majesty, it's not a good idea. I don't doubt the loyalty of Knight Vincent, if Knight Vincent returns to Frosacken, if there is a conflict between the local Bishop of Fren and Cardinal Olufi, it is difficult to guarantee which side Knight Vincent will be on?"

"That's a problem. Dylan, do you have any good advice?" said Archbishop Ishta, thoughtfully.

"It's better to let Martina be a Templar for a long time, because her mount unicorn is very fast and can make peace with Cardinal Olufi as soon as possible, second, because women are more attentive and should be more suitable for investigative work, and third, she has nothing to do with that Bishop Flen, and if there is an accident, I believe she can make the right choice. Dylan said.

"That's right, just do as you say. Archbishop Isha pondered for a moment, nodded with satisfaction, and added, "But in order to better accomplish this task, I think it is necessary to send a professional to assist Olufei." ”

"What do you mean......" Presenter Dylan suddenly had a bad premonition.

"That's right, you should also go and help Olufei to find out the results as soon as possible. Archbishop Ishtar smiled meaningfully.
