"This woman is so hidden! It's not a priest, it's a wizard! ”

"That's right, that's right, it's amazing!"

A group of people sighed for a while, and the focus of their emotions was consciously focused on "this woman is so scheming", "usually this woman is chattering", "this woman looks weak, I didn't expect to hide such a bad heart", and other aspects that have no substantive content.

Such a big thing happened to the main temple of Notos in the Misty Lakes region. The most senior priest is a necromancer who studies the "dark arts"! The influential priestess among the current priests is not using divine magic! This person is also related! Taken together, is there anyone else in the entire Misty Lake Diocese who can be trusted?

The answer, of course, is no!

- Notos Fury!

The belief in the god of wind is the most widespread in Karthas, and even the supreme ruler of the kingdom is required to take over the staff of the wind, which symbolizes the kingship of Karthas, from the high priest of the god of wind. It's true that the god of wind is a god of the good camp, but the good camp doesn't mean that he has a good temper.

Notos sent down the oracle directly. All the clergy in Lakespring Town have been relieved of their positions, and all the personnel of the temples in the Misty Lake area have been demoted!

There is nothing wrong with the previous oracle. The current management of the Temple of Lakesprings is a huge hole, and there is even a secret passage that leads directly to the living area in the back half of the temple. A necromancer who has been pretending to be an ascetic for more than thirty years has been in control of the temple, how many men has he planted in this place? To be honest, I don't dare to check it, and I can't check it. can only be counted as a "confused account", and everyone will be fired.

The latter oracle is not a problem though. The gods were furious, how could it be enough to punish only a dozen people! Even though the gods knew that most of the people were actually innocent, they still issued a punishment oracle with the nature of a joint sit. The clergy from the temple of Huquan Town will become "rats crossing the street" for a long time to come, and it is estimated that everyone shouting and beating is not yet to this point, but if you want to get further improvement in the temple system in the future, you can only become an ascetic, a choice that does not see any direct returns and benefits.

As for the fact that in the past thirty years or so, not a single cleric has found that there is a problem with the Temple of Lake Spring Town, how could such an unbelievable thing happen. Even the Holy Son of the God of Wind has visited Lakesprings more than once, and has found no problems. What does this mean? Is it necessary to check it out?

Fang Qiuling felt that this was a pit, a big pit, a huge pit that would fall directly to the bottom of the pit even if he accidentally stepped on it, and he would never be able to climb up again. People with a little bit of brains will consciously hide away.

Inside the temple of Notos there is a department similar to the "Inquisition", called the "Dome of the Firmament". According to the Holy Book of the Winds, the judges of the Dome of the Firmament are equal in position, and each has independent judgment. If there is a conflict between the judges, it is up to the successive sons to decide.

This time the incident that happened in Huquan Town, the Holy Son himself was involved. At the very least, a crime of dereliction of duty cannot be avoided. If some "collusion" or something like that is found in the course of the investigation...... Notos is not angry, but is going to directly send the Sage down to clean up!

To become a member of the top of the firmament, it is usually an elderly person who attaches equal importance to seniority and status. Seeking stability and stability is their primary duty. Therefore do not even think about expecting the judges of the firmament to take care of this matter. Even if they bring it to them with hard evidence, they will think twice.

If you are not a member of the temple, you will be scolded by the temple before you start the investigation. Even if the current supreme ruler of Karthas received the authorization of the Dome of the Firmament and sent the elites of the heraldic court to investigate, he would also face the embarrassment of being unjustifiable. Although the Dome of the Firmament was the inquisition of the temple of Notos, which had the right to investigate and judge the clergy of Notos, the things of the temple always belonged to the "divine right", and the rule of the secular kings was based on the "royal power". An investigation of the clergy by secular people would set a very "bad" precedent.

The relationship between theocracy and kingship is naturally antagonistic. The investigators of the Heraldic Court may not have meant it, but there is no doubt that the suppression of the "theocracy" was inevitable. At that time, the prestige of the temple was hit, and there was a massive loss of believers...... Notos is probably going to send the Sage down to earth as well.

If the current King of Karthus is interested in upgrading his title from "Your Majesty" to "Emperor", then he can take this opportunity to move up and down. If you are not interested, then it is better not to wade into this troubled water as much as possible, and to stand far away to express "concern".

"Old Ed, what's your situation now?"

Pastor Ed offered to accompany the convoy before it departed, which surprised everyone in the convoy.

As a strong contender for the next chief priest of Lakespring Town, his reputation is as high as the sky at the moment. What we need to do now is to move around more, make more contacts, and mobilize the contacts and relationships accumulated over the years, and maybe the next celebrant will soon fall on his head.

The rest of the clergy were busy settling ties with Brother Charlton, fearing that they might be labeled "necromancer accomplices." Pastor Eddard has no worries at all. He personally led his team to the underground passages to fight the evil necromancer, and he nearly lost his life in the battle. This allowed him to completely clear his suspicions, and instead made outstanding achievements. His actions of leading the way and disregarding his personal safety were silent encouragement and encouragement, and he was an example for the Temple.

Fang Qiuling's question made Pastor Ed involuntarily reach out and cover his throat. At his throat, there was a large area of skin with obvious pigmentation.

"Me? I'm going to go around and help those who really need help. ”

"You...... It feels like you've changed a lot all at once. Fang Qiuling was a little curious, "Why do you think that?" ”

"I've died once, and I feel like the things I was pursuing don't have any special meaning......"

I have to say that Pastor Ed is a little unlucky, it seems that the goddess of doom has inadvertently paid attention to him.

Maggie took Pastor Ed and Lily hostage. She held a sword in each hand, one pointing at Pastor Eddard's left chest and the other at Lily's throat. Shino then suddenly attacked, and used the Bright Strike to sneak up on his hand, and a sword pierced Maggie's heart.

Her heart was pierced, and Maggie fell to the ground. But she turned half of herself before she fell to the ground, just to see who had killed her. The two swords she held were also deflected by the rotation of her body, and then fell. The sword that was originally pointed at Lily's throat landed on Lily's breastplate, causing Lily to exclaim in surprise, but it did no harm at all. The long sword pointed at the heart of Pastor Ed's left chest rose slightly, and landed directly on the side of Pastor Ed's head and neck, and then a large hole was opened.

Both of these swords belonged to Lily, who had slashed quite a few zombies not long ago. The blade of the sword is not only stained with the "body tissue" of zombies, but also with a lot of venom from voodoo zombies. So Pastor Ed was poisoned unexpectedly. He was in a coma when he was poisoned, unable to save himself. And the others were fighting the lich and didn't notice.

After the lich was slapped to the ground like a fly by the "big dog" Gunifa and all the surrounding undead were wiped out, the surviving survivors found Pastor Ed in the pile of corpses.

At that time, Pastor Ed's face was completely blue, and although he still had a breath of air, he was not far from death. And if he dies of corpse poison, then his body will be polluted after death, and there is a great possibility that he will turn into a zombie and get up again. Of course, being able to appear in the convoy now means that Pastor Ed must have been rescued.

A high-quality general-purpose antidote, plus a fourth-grade quality holy water, and then there are the few remaining healing techniques of the Gunifa. Finally snatched Pastor Eddard back from the clutches of death, and was fortunate enough to continue to survive in the mortal world.

During the resuscitation, Pastor Ed woke up. Although he couldn't speak or move his hands, his consciousness was still very clear, and he was clear about what was happening around him.

He felt the despair and fear of the Grim Reaper's footsteps approaching little by little, and that he was powerless to resist and unable to refuse. He saw the scenes of life experiences from childhood to adulthood playing out like illusions in front of his eyes. He also saw the scene where Fang Qiuling blushed and forcefully opened his mouth, constantly pouring all kinds of medicinal agents into his mouth.

In the end, his own life was picked up. But that little memory will forever be etched in my heart. Whether it becomes a nightmare in the rest of life, or a ruthless spur after realizing that he is small, perhaps this needs to be decided by the fairest time.

"Viscount Norne."

Pastor Ed put down his hand covering his throat and took the water from the kitten.

"What's wrong?"

"To be honest, I still think you're annoying."

“…… Thanks for the compliment. ”

"I'm not complimenting you."

"It's okay, I think it's okay if it's a compliment."

Pastor Ed sighed softly, "You guys are really weird. is obviously an aristocrat, but he behaves so kindly. Obviously you can be the center of attention at the banquet, but you like to sit here and tell stories to the little ones. ”

Fang Qiuling laughed out loud, and continued to say in Pastor Ed's tone, "Obviously, there are many things that can be left alone, but I jump down by myself as if I have no brains. is obviously the only heir of the family, and it is not good to carry out the 'man-making' movement at home, but he likes to run out and take risks. ”

"Poof......

The sound of Lily squirting water rang out from the side, followed by a flurry of coughing.

"I can eat with my face, but I have to rely on my talent."

"I hate your shameless boasting, or unceremonious self-mockery." Pastor Ed's face darkened slightly, "Still, I have to admit, Viscount Norn, you're very attractive. Very...... What's your expression? ”

Fang Qiuling hugged his shoulders with both hands, his face frightened.

"Old Ed, I didn't expect you to have this hobby! I misread you! Stay away from me in the future! ”

The people present were all adults, and Fang Qiuling's words and his movements comprehensively showed the meaning......

"Ahem! Ahem...... Ahem! Ahem......"

Old Tom choked too, and his old face turned red.

"Viscount Norne! It's not funny at all! Pastor Eddard's face was so dark that he could hang a few layers of soot, "I'm serious about complimenting you." ”

"Thank you. But I still want to ask first, the kind of stories that ...... have to be told with little boys, and you dare to swear you have nothing to do with them? ”

"'The story I had to tell with the little boy'?"

Pastor Eddard looked inexplicable - what kind of mess this was.

"You don't know?"

"I don't know."

"I really don't know?"

"I don't know! What is it? ”

"Oh, you don't know, forget it. If you don't know, it means that you are still a good comrade. Uh-huh, I don't know it's good, I don't know it's good. ”

Fang Qiuling didn't explain, but just nodded vigorously, making Pastor Ed vaguely aware that this was not a good thing.

"Hey, what the hell is the story? How come I've never heard of it? ”

Lily also asked curiously. At this moment, Malu jumped past her, followed by a kitten with orange fur. Malu meowed to Lily as she passed, and was rewarded with a large piece of dried fish.

The two kittens then ran away with the dried fish in their mouths.

"It's ......"

Fang Qiuling whispered a few words in Lily's ear. The look on Lily's face was first curious, then surprised, then disgusted, and finally disgusted.

"Huh! How can there be such a thing! It's disgusting! ”

"It's disgusting, but some old stuff is just good for this one."

Lily took a sip: "Don't let me beat one when I see this kind of guy!" Beat to death! Even with her, the way she looked at Pastor Ed became unkind.

Pastor Ed was a little anxious: "What the hell is going on!" ”

"You really don't know?" Old Tom poured a glass of wine into his mouth and put it down, "It's not a secret. The Heraldic Court often uses this as an interface to suppress the temple. ”

"I don't know!"

"Then come here, I'll tell you ......"

The two bigwigs exchanged words for a while, and then Pastor Ed jumped up.

"Slander! This is an absolute slander! Pastor Ed's face flushed, and he was about to go crazy, "Impossible, how can there be such a thing!" ”

Fang Qiuling changed his sitting posture to make himself more comfortable: "What, this matter has something to do with you?" ”

Just like before, Fang Qiuling only needed one sentence to make Pastor Ed half angry.

"Of course not! Whoever does this, I'll just beat him to death! ”

Pastor Eddard's attitude was the same as Lily's, and he obviously couldn't tolerate such a thing.

"Oh, it's not about you. Keep it up, and hopefully it won't have anything to do with you in the future. ”

"You!"

Pastor Ed didn't want to talk to Fang Qiuling anymore and turned away from the campfire. Jumped onto the carriage a little farther away.
