Chapter 21 The Disadvantages of Comparing Your Heart to Your Heart (Part 2)
With a smile on his face, Chabron said sincerely, his clear eyes as pure as a baby:
"It's nothing, Uncle Jacks. I believe that you must have encountered monsters dozens of times more dangerous than this in your adventure life. Their ferocity and cruelty are definitely beyond my ability to deal with."
What the young man said was true.
And that’s literally what it means.
"You are a priest of light who can perform miracles. I am a guy who lives with his savings. It is really an honor for me to receive your compliment."
Jax shrugged and teased.
Then, Chabron began to explain the ins and outs of the matter to Jacks. He started from the time he was hypnotized by Arya, and fully recounted his subsequent experiences, including being almost deceived by a fake priest, and the scarecrow that suddenly appeared.
During this period, he (of course) ignored the fact that he could see the level, and only described the level 2 warlock as "an insidious unknown caster disguised as his adoptive father Matru, with ulterior motives, suspected of being a cultist"
".
"I didn't expect it to be like this. Maybe there is a group of cultists with unknown purposes hiding near the town, and even the weird fire may be related to them."
Jakes' face became more solemn, his usual cheerful and decadent expression was gone, and his facial features were like hard and powerful sculptures.
He raised his head and then asked Chabron:
"Are you sure that the fake Father Matruh said, 'This is illegal', right?"
"Yes, this is incredible." Chabron put his hands away, "Can you imagine? A suspected cultist who pretended to be a righteous cleric deceived me and tried to use legal weapons to protect himself!"
"Illegal? I thought of a very bad possibility, and I hope my guess is wrong." Jacks frowned, "Uh... Mr. Pastor, you are the favored one of the God of Knowledge, and you are definitely in this regard.
Knows more than I do.
"But my experience comes from my past adventures and life experiences, and there may be something that is not in the file.
"Ha, it's just my guess. Don't take it too seriously. I wonder if you would like to hear it."
"It's what I asked for. Also, just call me Cha Bron." Cha Bron agreed with a smile, and raised his slender ears.
After receiving the affirmation from the blond priest, Jacks was very pleased and slowly spoke:
"A friend of mine once told me ("Friends out of nothing!" the blond boy couldn't help but think) that in the hands of a great being, social norms, order, and laws are just playthings that can be twisted at will. Such a great being established
He is the pinnacle of all abstract orders and has influence over all secular kings. All the nations on earth are just puppets in his hands."
"Uncle, when you talk about great beings, do you mean gods?" Chabron asked.
According to his description, the young priest can roughly identify one of the nine gods through the memory of the original owner and the basic understanding of the setting in his previous life.
The Lord of Order, the Emperor of Law, the King of Kings, the Convict, the Ruler of Nations, the Ever-Watching Eye, the Dark Sun that Never Ends - [King of Kings].
"Yes." Jacks nodded.
------------------
Jacks deliberately avoided his name to avoid the danger of being perceived by [divine consciousness]. This kind of caution is usually unnecessary - obviously the Nine Gods are not free to care about everyone's bad words.
But Chabron had a different understanding of this - when he reached level 13 in a certain save before time travel, he and his teammates had destroyed the evil god's conspiracy three times, destroyed 15 temples, and influenced 300 people (using physical means).
Multiple evil/cultists. Psychological influence also exists - such as using charm spells.
The most thrilling one was when he and his teammates fought a battle between three level 13 characters and the incarnation of [The Laughing Clown] in order to expose the scam designed by the God of Trickery and the Lord of Lies among the Nine Gods.
Oh, by the way, after the saintly incarnation of the "Lord of Lies" was beaten to the ground, everyone discovered that the "Lord of Lies" had told the truth throughout the whole process. They were looking at God through colored glasses. Well, this
It's not the point, ignore it.
So considering Jacks' worth, it's not incomprehensible to be a little cautious.

Then, Jacks pointed to the jungle to the north:
"The spell caster who pretended to be your adoptive father, Father Matruh, and was a suspected cultist, fled into the woods, right?
"In this case, let's go in and check it out."
Beside Jacks, the handsome and gentle little pastor still hesitated a little:
"But, is there any danger in entering rashly like this?"
Hearing the worried words of the young man beside him, Jacks immediately understood his intention:
Is Chabron worried about my safety? That's right. In his view, I'm just a retired uncle who has had some adventure experience in the past.
Jacks, who originally didn't plan to reveal too much of his past in this remote Wind's Breath Town, thought about it for a moment and decided to explain a little:
"Xia Bron, you don't need to worry about my safety. After all, I am also a former adventurer. I know how to defend and use weapons. I still have some basic combat skills."
"Uncle Jacks, although you have rich experience, your own superb martial arts skills are not enough..."
"I understand that no matter how skilled a warrior is, he still needs a weapon to display his strength. I don't carry a weapon now, but I have a magic weapon that is bound to me and can be summoned with a single syllable and gesture."
"But, Uncle Jacks, it's not that I don't believe you..."
"I'm not bragging. There are many lucky ones like me among adventurers."
Magic weapons are very rare, and even most of the kingdom's high-ranking officers may not have a magic weapon handy. Jacks (level 16) is explaining why an alcoholic uncle actually has a precious magic weapon.
"No, you misunderstood. To be honest, I'm actually more worried about myself." Chabron smiled bitterly. It was undeniable that he was telling the truth.
The blond boy then said:
"Dealing with the two scarecrows consumed most of my strength and left me slightly injured - let's put it this way, if the health status can be divided into 19 levels from low to high, I am at the 14th level."
Now it's a level 2 character in bad shape teaming up with a level 16 character!
To be honest, if Jacks hadn't been by his side, the boy wouldn't have dared to continue tracking. His current state is very bad: his mana and [Guard Flash] times have been exhausted, [Guide Power] needs to rest for an hour to recover, and his health points
If he is dissatisfied, even a Tibetan mastiff can pose a threat to him - that is a Tibetan mastiff.
"By the way, little Chabron, you said before that the guy who used illusions to disguise himself as Matruh dropped an iron book when he escaped? Where did you put that thing?" Jakes' expression became serious and he asked
arrive.
"Still there..." At this time, Xia Bron looked at the open space and suddenly discovered——
The ground was empty.
The iron book that the warlock dropped on the ground disappeared without knowing when.
