Chapter 234: Absconding

At noon on the Green Grass Festival, the sun is shining in the sky.

While fierce quarrels and even brawls broke out in the taverns and inns of Ascatra City over the morning performance of the "Temple of Losanda", a group of heavily armed palades assembled in the square at the entrance of the Temple of Losanda.

Dressed in a robe embroidered with the emblem of the sun, the High Priest Gatnes came to this group of holy warriors and said in a deep voice:

"Bredrow must give a reasonable explanation for his stupidity in slandering the Holy Church, immediately stop the performance of that absurd play full of lies, and sincerely apologize to the deputy priest Murit, you come with me to the Amp Amp, and I will make a solemn protest to Bredero, if he is insane......"

"Evil will melt like snow in the scorching sun!"

The paladins thumped their breastplates and let out a roar.

"The light is always there!"

Gartnes took a solid and steady step with the golden scepter, leading the Knights of Morning Light towards the Bridge District.

There are a large number of people gathered at the entrance of the Wujiuju Hotel in Daqiao District, most of them are commoners, the number of nobles is scarce, and the number of beggars and homeless people is very large.

The people could tell from the quarrels in the tavern that the Bradero Theatre Company's performance of The Temple of Los Angeles was a work of praise to the poor, in which the lowest common people, dressed in rags and rude, possessed virtues far superior to those of the so-called cultured, civilized world, who were supportive, upright, courageous, and self-sacrificing.

The aristocrats disliked it and the clergy hated it, but the common people, who made up the largest population of Ascatla, flocked to the Grand Theater of Amm for the afternoon performances.

When the Knights of the Morning Light arrived at the gate of the Grand Theater, they were surrounded by the crowd and prevented them from breaking into the theater.

"Don't let them in, this group of people is not good, it must be bad for Mr. Bredrow!"

"Everyone knows all the dirty things that the Reverenders of Los Angeles have done, and Mr. Bredrow has done just a little bit of artistic processing, what do you want to do with him?"

"Get away, we will never allow you to bully the troupe, do you want to reproduce the scenes in the play?"

……

Gartnes suppressed his anger and ordered the paladins to refrain from exacerbating the conflict, but he kept scolding these fools in his heart.

With the divine power of the High Priest, whether it is summoning a divine servant or using a divine blade storm, it is easy to disperse this group of foolish people, but he cannot openly commit violence against the civilians in public.

The Church of Los Sanda is also considered to be a high-ranking big church on the continent of Faerun, but its power in Ammu is not too strong.

The most common teaching of Am's followers is the Church of Waukin, and the nation of merchants is not called for nothing.

The church with the second largest number of believers is not the turn of Losanda but the church of Talos, the Ams who made their fortune by sea trade and are the most feared of storms.

The church with the third largest number of believers turned out to be the Max Church, the god of thieves, and the majority of Am's shadow thieves believed in Max.

Coupled with the fact that 14% of Am's population is dwarfs and halflings, the belief in alien gods has divided a large number of believers.

Haim, the god of protection, Tom, the god of loyalty and courage, and Tyr, the god of justice, also divided a large part of the followers of the Loshanda church, and the power of the Los Sanda church was barely equal to that of these three churches.

After the Dawn Tribulation, the prestige and influence of the Losanda Church were greatly weakened, and it was no longer possible to casually burn the fools at the stake and claim to be heretics as they were before the Dawn Catastrophe.

Faced with such a chaotic scene, Gartnes was not stumped, and he immediately explained loudly to the people that this visit was not to Bredero's detriment, and that the paladins would not enter the theater, and that he was the only one who went to meet Bredro and clear up the misunderstanding with him.

Only then did the people make way for him, and the High Priest, who suppressed his anger, was able to enter the Amp Theater.

Gartness went straight to the actors' lounge backstage in the theater, where he confronted Bredero and tried to persuade him to stop the performance of "The Temple of Los Angeles" immediately, believing that the artist, who had been touted by the public, would be able to tell the difference.

In Am, the power of the Church of Los Angeles may not be strong, but looking at the entire continent of Faeron, the glory of Los Sanda is all over the land, and it is by no means something that a mere well-known servant and painter can offend.

It is not pleasant to anger the Holy Father, the Lord of the Morning Dawn, and to wait for him to incarnate to destroy evil in the mortal world, and to roast his soul in the holy flame for eternity!

pushed open the door of the actors' lounge, but the high priest Gartnes was stunned, this room had long been empty, where was the shadow of Bredlow and the other members of the troupe?

The High Priest traveled all over the Amp Theater and couldn't find any members of the troupe, only to learn that after the Bredrow Troupe had finished the first show and recorded a live version of the Shadow, he left the theater with a team of adventurers and disappeared.

There were only a few employees of the "Bredero and His Friends Cultural and Technological Development Co., Ltd." who were guarding the "magic box of light and shadow" in the theater, and the "magic shadow version" of the stage play was played in the afternoon, and the actors and troupe staff had long since been withdrawn.

The chief priest, who was bent on preventing the continuation of the performance of "The Temple of Luoshanda", smashed the "magic box of light and shadow" on the spot, and the noise it made alarmed the people gathered at the door. A clash erupts at once, just like in the final scene of the play "The Temple of Losanda", where the homeless men and beggars take out slings and sticks and scuffle with the paladins of the Knights of Loshanda Morning Light.

The combat strength of the holy warriors was not comparable to that of the civilians, but they did not dare to kill, and suffered a great loss under the restraint of their hands and feet, and were pushed to the ground by the people, and rolled on the ground.

Gatnes left behind the group of paladins who had shouted loud slogans when they set out, but were now screaming and screaming, and rushed out of the crowd alone with the Flame of Death.

He knew what was the crux of the matter, and only by catching Bredrow and making him admit his mistake could he salvage the reputation of the church in Los Sanda and stop these irrational mobs.

The High Priest used all the power at his disposal, mobilized the believers among the nobles, tried their best to find the whereabouts of the Bredero Troupe, and even sent the Morning Light Knights to ride out of the city to chase after them, and pulled up a search net, but found nothing.

The guards at the city gate did not see the troupe leave the city at all, and there was no registration of the Bledro troupe leaving the port by boat in the port customs records, and the masked mage would not have sensed the fluctuations of spatial magic in the city.

It was as if the Bredero troupe had disappeared into thin air.

What Gatnes didn't know was that as early as two years ago, when the city hall investigated the theater bombing, Luo Feng had already arranged an escape route.

Just three floors below the cobbler's workshop near the Amp Theater, the small dock used for smuggling has been stocked with a sea ship all year round, and it is here that the Bredlow Theatre Company and the Mithril Squad quietly sail out to sea without alarming anyone.
