Chapter 229 miserable

As the new year's spring is approaching, Bruce's savior finally arrives.

Because of his meritorious service in discovering Bruce's legendary experience, Haydn was promoted to the rank of purple bishop. This arrival brought Bruce good news: the Holy See recognized Bruce's identity as a mage and granted him permission to move freely outside, but he could only use the status of a knight and should not be easily

Use magic and do not teach magic to outsiders without authorization.

Bruce happily asked Haydn to sit down and asked affectionately: "Your Excellency, you don't have much business recently, do you?"

Haydn said politely: "Brother Bruce, you're welcome. We don't know each other before we fight. I'm only a few years older than you. Calling you a bishop is too foreign. How about we become brothers?"

Bruce smiled and said: "Brother Haydn is right! I have been very troubled by something recently, eh!"

Haydn said boldly: "Brother Bruce, please tell me, as the eldest brother, I will give you your full help!"

Bruce said: "It's not a big deal. The Coleman area has stabilized now, so I want to go to the Island of England to visit some friends. It's just that there is no reliable person to take care of me when I leave, so I will inevitably feel a little uneasy. I don't know Brother Haydn."

Can you stay with me for a few days?"

Haydn thought for a while and said: "The matter is not serious, but after all, I am a religious person and it is inconvenient to interfere in secular affairs. Why don't I apply to establish a regional church in the Coleman area, so that I can stay here reasonably and at the same time deter the residents?"

It just so happens that I want to stay by your side, what do you think?"

Bruce gave a thumbs up and praised: "Brother is wise!"



How could we not return to the island of England without bringing the beautiful girl Juliet with us? When Bruce told her about going home, the little girl looked unhappy, but the longing was clearly evident on her face. A seventeen-year-old girl

I’ve been away from home for more than half a year, how can I say I miss home?

After all the arrangements had been made, it was already the warm spring of March. Bruce, Juliet and her second father-in-law, Leonard Montague, boarded the luxurious ship that Haydn had found for them. Standing on the bow of the ship, they thought about leaving England.

Looking miserable when he had to sneak across the country, Bruce not only showed a proud smile. It must be wonderful to think about Chris's shocked look when she saw him again!

The journey home passed quickly. The three of them looked towards the coast with joy, hoping to see the beautiful scenery of their homeland, but what they saw was a mess. The once prosperous North Berwick Port was full of ruins and merchant ships coming and going.

Without a trace, it must have sunk to the bottom of the sea long ago.

Bruce said to Leonard: "Protect Juliet, you stay on the boat, I'll go take a look first."

Leonard pulled Juliet behind him and nodded.

At this time, the first mate on the ship also came over and said to Bruce: "General, I am a deacon of the Holy See and a member of the Inquisition. Please allow me to go with you."

Bruce said: "Follow me!" He jumped hard on the side of the ship, leaping ashore like a big bird. The first mate was young, but his figure was not as weak as Bruce's. Without seeing how his body moved, he had already reached Bruce's side.

Bruce couldn't help but praise: "Good skills, what's your name?"

The first mate said politely: "My name is Randy Sassoon. I am a trainee deacon who has just been assigned to Bishop Hayden. I have just graduated from the Holy See's magic training class."

This was not the time for chatting. Bruce nodded and said, "I just used my mental power to investigate, and there are no survivors within a 500-meter radius. I'll go to the north and have a look. You go to the south to do some reconnaissance, and we'll meet here in half an hour."

Randy took the order and left. The two searched the entire North Berwick Port and found no survivors! Not only were all the people dead, but also chickens, ducks, dogs and other animals were killed!

Half an hour later, the two met again, and Bruce said solemnly: "The situation is serious. Everyone and the animals were shot through the chest with great force. It was a single blow and extremely cruel! I don't want to do what a normal person would do."

Randy nodded and said: "Not only that, I have used secret methods to detect that everyone's souls have disappeared. Logically speaking, this is absolutely impossible! After death, the soul will leave the body, but it will linger near the body for seven days.

Around. And it must have been less than four days since the tragedy occurred here. Logically speaking, there should be many souls."

Bruce raised his eyebrows: "Do you know soul magic?"

Randy shook his head and said: "No, soul magic is just a legend and has disappeared for thousands of years. However, the Holy See has methods to detect souls, which are mainly used to determine the time of death, which is much more accurate than just looking at the corpse."

Bruce thought for a long time and said, "How many of you judges are here this time?"

Randy answered truthfully: "It's just me. General, please don't get me wrong. We have no intention of monitoring you. I am only ordered by Bishop Hayden to protect the safety of your family."

Bruce smiled and said: "You are overthinking. I am just worried about the safety of my family. The situation now is too weird. I don't trust them to get off the boat. Do you dare to walk inside with me?"

Randy replied decisively: "That's exactly what I meant!"

Bruce returned to the boat and told Leonard to turn around and stay away from the coast, and not to go ashore until they came back! Juliet looked at him worriedly but did not speak. Bruce gently rubbed her head and smiled: "Don't worry, I just

Look at the situation, there is no danger."

After arranging everything, Bruce and Randy flew to high altitude to launch a blanket search. They went all the way from North Berwick Port to the outskirts of Edinburgh but found no one alive! Looking towards Edinburgh, a 3,000-man troop was attacking Edinburgh.

city ​​wall!

Something strange happened! A dozen soldiers holding huge iron spears did not dodge the oncoming arrows. They quickly rushed to the bottom of the city wall and jumped up. They easily jumped to the top of the city! The defenders responded.

They were also very skilled. The archers immediately moved away. Rows of defenders carrying thick iron spears quickly surrounded these enemy troops. Although both sides used iron spears, the attacking enemy soldiers had one in hand and could swing it easily.

, but the defenders used a team of two or three people. Eight or nine people surrounded one person to fight, and relying on the large number of people, they could barely stab the enemy and seriously injure them.

Soon, more and more enemy troops jumped on the city wall, and the Edinburgh defenders were in danger! Bruce couldn't help but prepare to take action, when a familiar figure appeared on the city wall! Jones! He was holding what looked like a staff.

The gun-like object was pointed at an enemy, and the front end of the object shot out a cold light that instantly froze the enemy! Then the defenders worked together to stab the enemy with iron spears, and finally killed him!

Behind Jones, more than a dozen figures joined the battlefield, holding weapons identical to those of Jones. The situation finally stabilized. When the enemy troops under the city saw Jones appear, they immediately changed their attack targets. Dozens of enemy troops all attacked Jones. Bruce
