The Benefits of the Ancestors——Zhu Xie Nai III Chapter 34: The Rekia Clan
When the four of them met at the door of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Art... it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. Alexander relied on his sense of food to find a good roadside stall to deal with - cheap, delicious, and clean.
And hygienic.
"The scenery is nice, but it's a pity that I don't have time to enjoy it." While exchanging information, Ryan ate the last skewer of meat.
"Anyway, let's ask people from the Church of the God of Knowledge first, and then we can decide on the next step." Alexander said, and of course no one had other ideas.
The four people entered the door. There were currently no clergy in the hall, it was all believers studying art.
"Should we wait a while or what?" Karin asked.
Alexander did not reply. He first observed the activities of these people and the situation in the hall. Those believers were reading, writing, carving, etc. In short, they were studying their respective arts. The church of this church is very beautiful both internally and externally.
Art. There is no similarity between their works, they are all different.
Carlin also paid attention to those paintings that were left unattended. But there were so many of them, and they didn't seem to be related.
And Ryan looked for those portrait paintings to see if there was anyone who looked more like Nina. Of course there was not, but Heath only told Alexander that the painting of a faceless woman was in the utility room, where he saw it when he was moving Fageni.
of.
Noel, who was not interested in art, had nothing to do and waited in a daze to see if the priest would come. But the four of them waited for a quarter of an hour but nothing happened.
It is not rude to enter the back corridor without a priest accompanying you. Moreover, these people also represent the face of the Church of the Holy Glory God to a certain extent.
Alexander decided to go out and find a nearby merchant or passerby to ask why the priests here were not in the lobby. Several merchants said that the priests must be there at night, but they were not sure during the day. It seemed that sometimes some believers would run away at night if they felt inspired.
come over.
Carlin, who didn't follow him out, focused on the painters who were resting or preparing to leave, but there were only one or two.
Alexander had no choice but to try to talk to a believer who seemed younger and talkative after he came back. Perhaps it would be better to call him an artist. "Hello? Where is the pastor here now? We have something to ask them."
The believer was a little impatient, probably because Alexander was disturbing her. It seemed that the priest was not in the hall during the day, unless there was something important. There was usually one on duty during the day and three at night.
"Then if you have something to ask the priest, how do you ask the one on duty to come out?" Alexander asked as calmly as possible.
But they won't go to a priest if they have nothing to do. Because priests who believe in the God of Knowledge and Art don't have any special duties. They themselves also study art.
"Does that mean the priests on duty during the day usually don't come out?" Alexander was dumbfounded. "Okay. Thank you for bothering me."
"In this case, it would be more troublesome. Do we have to come at night?" Ryan asked his teammates, because it was at night that Fageni suddenly fainted.
Noel went out to take a look at the sky, and then proposed to leave the church first. The others had no objection. The moment he left the church, a paper ball fell from Alexander's head.
"Huh?" This scene seemed familiar. Alexander caught the paper ball and walked out to look at it.
It said, "What do you want from me? Come quickly, I will be in the empire in five o'clock."
"Well. This seems to be the fast-legged Roja you mentioned. Let's go." Alexander breathed a sigh of relief and headed to the Church of the Holy God of Glory.
But when they arrived at the church, the dwarf priest told the four of them that she had gone home to repair equipment...
"Will she come back soon?" Alexander asked, and the dwarf priest said that she just threw in the document bag from the empire and teleported home.
"Then can you tell her where her home is? We'll go there right away." Alexander started to have a headache again. The priest told her that it was the Rechia clan's mansion, but he didn't know which one it was.
After Alexander said goodbye, he went to the Lechia clan. The four of them went to the other side of the water city, that is, the part above the water. Generally speaking, dwarves like to live close to the earth, but the Lechia clan did the opposite.
Of.
Fortunately, they were not forging here, but at the Blacksmith's Industrial Co., Ltd. or the church of the Church of the God of Forging. In short, we finally asked about Kuaishan Luoya's home. It was a small wooden house on the water, and there were some white-skinned slender things growing in the water.
A tree with a main stem and red leaves, which are very beautiful.
Walking into the house, a dwarf forger who had made weapons for Carlin in Guzhuo Town seemed to be helping a girl about 1.5 meters tall to tie her shoelaces. When she got closer, she saw that he was actually adjusting a silver metal iron.
boots.
"Ahem." She coughed, and then the dwarf blacksmith left.
"Ms. Alexander, Mr. Carlin, Mr. Lane, and Noel, nice to meet you." Roya said hello first.
"Nice to meet you, Ms. Roja. It seems that you have heard about our identity and purpose of coming?" Alexander was the first to come out to negotiate.
[What a well-informed person.] Noel felt that this guy was not polite. Although he was from the same race, he did not need to beat around the bush. But he was used to dealing with humans, and he was not used to it.
"Nice to meet you, nice to meet you," Ryan said, while Carlin just nodded slightly.
"I opened the route from the Empire to Guzhuo Town, and I also brought the letter there. From now on, all your church-related information is delivered by me." After hearing this, Roja is indeed the best candidate.
"So that's it." Although Ryan didn't know much about what happened before, he didn't understand why.
"Excuse me, if that's the case, I'll get straight to the point. We hope to know what happened when Miss Nina went to the Church of the Holy God two days ago, as well as the information related to her disappearance, and we hope that you can give us some advice." Alexander immediately proposed.
own information needs.
"Miss Nina came to me just to pick up some things that I had stored before. I have been in the empire since then. I just found out about her disappearance. I'm sorry that I don't have any valuable information." It sounds like Nina has been there for a long time.
Knowing Nina, Alexander always felt strange.
"Ah..." Alexander also knew that Nina did say that she had withdrawn money from a friend. "Is that so? Did she drink with you at that time?" But Roja shook his head.
"Well... Isn't it convenient to say yes?" Alexander was about to give up.
"If possible, could I ask what she stored?" Karin asked.
"Yes, what did she take? Can you tell me a little bit if possible?" Noel's character is also very direct.
"As for what was taken, it was just some personal belongings. This has nothing to do with the disappearance, so I can't comment." It sounds like it may be related to the girl's little secret.
"Then what did she say when she came to get the things?" Karin didn't give up.
"You didn't say anything to me, you just brought a letter to the empire." After Roja finished speaking, Carlin became more and more confused. Could it be that it was for Brandon?
"Letter? Is it convenient to reveal who it is addressed to?" Noel asked.
And Ryan shrugged. "If this is the case, Ms. Roya doesn't know the news about Nina's disappearance, so we can only start from other aspects. By the way, Ms. Roya, do you know a bald principality person?"
?" He described the characteristics of the bald male principality people he had obtained previously.
"Well... after she disappeared, someone from the duchy asked the trading house to send something over. It was a well-informed, bronzed, thin, bald man. Do you know anything about this person?" Alexander added.
"I think this has nothing to do with the disappearance. I just sent it to the church in Lamesa City. I don't know who will take it. As for the people from the principality, I have never seen such a person, but I can help you take a look.
, are you waiting for me here?"
"This...then I'll help you." Alexander didn't understand what he meant for a moment.
[Is it the church in La Mesa?] Noel remembered that Alexander told her about her adventures in this place.
"Thank you." After Ryan said that, Roja used his space ability to teleport away, but the normal magic of the paladin cannot teleport too far... He only left one sentence. "I will be back in three-quarters of an hour."
"This... is amazingly fast, space teleportation, really amazing." Ryan praised.
"Um... I think we should wait where we are. It's not good to wander around." Alexander said.
"Three moments, it won't last long, why don't we wait?" Noel took off the pieced giant ax and placed it on the wooden bridge. Anyway, there is nothing to do, so just wait. The dwarf's patience is never lacking.
"Wait a minute." Ryan sat down directly.
Kalin noticed that the dwarf forger who was helping Roja adjust his boots hadn't gone far yet, but he was just waiting and enjoying the beautiful scenery here.
Sure enough, about three-quarters of an hour later, Roja teleported back. Her face was a little red, and she took a few breaths before continuing.
"Thank you for your hard work. Don't be impatient and speak slowly." Alexander said immediately.
"The entrance to the palace, the entrance to Countercurrent Trading Company, and the entrance to the Footprints of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Art. There are three sighting reports in total. Some merchants witnessed the people from the principality you mentioned, but there were no continuous sightings on the nearby main roads and paths. It was like
The movement in space is the same. What I mean is that I have only seen it at these three intersections, and no one has seen it even if I walked a little further to the side streets."
"Well, this guy doesn't look simple." Ryan frowned as he hurriedly stood up.
"Hmm... It seems that this person is not simple. Let's ask about it later when we go to the Church of the God of Knowledge and Art. Thank you." Alexander was still polite.
"Thank you for your hard work. So this person didn't go through the streets, but through a secret door, right?" Carlin guessed.
"There should be no such thing as a secret door at the entrance of the palace..." Noel was speechless.
"It would be easier to handle if it was really something as low-level as a secret door." Alexander shook his head.
"Anyway, I didn't ask anyone who saw them on those paths. This is a beacon that can contact me. If you have anything, you can use this to contact me and provide me with spatial coordinates. However, this beacon is very expensive, so don't use it indiscriminately." Luo
Ya reached into his pocket and pulled something out.
Alexander felt that Roja was really kind-hearted. "I understand, thank you again."
The semi-dwarf then gave Alexander a quill. "You can't put it in the space equipment. I can see it when you write on the letter paper." The letter paper was very expensive, costing three paise per piece.
"Okay." Alexander didn't lack the money. This kind of contact method could be solved for only 1 paise, but the cost was too low. She put it in her pocket and nodded.
"But looking at it this way, it is difficult to find this person and it is difficult to start with. We can only continue the investigation from other aspects." Lane said.
"That's it, I'm leaving." Luo Ya saw a few people continuing to discuss and left.
"If you're too bothered, we'll take our leave." Alexander was polite to the end.
