Chapter 476: What rude thing are you thinking about, Your Majesty the Pope!?
"Dong dong dong..."
There was a sudden knock on the door, which made Fang Qingrou look at the door curiously. Although there was a wooden door blocking her, she couldn't see anything.
Normally no one would come to the hut where she and Char lived, but occasionally the mayors of some villages or small towns would come to find Char and ask him to help hunt some more difficult prey.
Some are caused by the destruction of farmland and the destruction of towns, and some are caused by monsters that invaded from other areas and destroyed the balance of the forest.
In addition to these two, there is also the most difficult situation to deal with, which is also Char's main job as a kingdom-authorized hunter.
It was precisely because of this job that Fang Qingrou was able to continue to stay with Charles after the blessing of the holy tree ended.
That is to deal with creatures contaminated by void energy!
This creature is extremely dangerous. As long as it is infected with void energy, even an ant can become as big as a cheetah. Not only is it extremely fast, but it can also use the power of contaminated elements.
That's why it's so important to have authorized hunters responsible for hunting this creature.
The blessing from the Holy Tree that Fang Qingrou obtained is a skill called [Wind Spirit Walker].
This skill allows her to sense the flow of the wind more clearly, and can even control the airflow in the air to assist herself.
Thanks to this skill, her two skills [Wind Spirit's Protection] and [Storm Knight's Protection] have now disappeared from the skill panel and have been integrated into the skill [Wind Spirit Walker].
This kind of ability is very suitable for use in reconnaissance, and being an authorized hunter to maintain the balance of the forest is also good.
In addition, her father in this dream world, Char, is also an authorized hunter.
Not only that, although Char's blessing from the Holy Tree is not a [Wind Spirit Walker], he is also an [Apocalypse One] who has some relationship with the wind.
So it was logical that Fang Qingrou continued to follow Char instead of being assigned to other positions by the kingdom.
However, Fang Qingrou feels that the above are actually secondary reasons, and the really important reason is that Charles is old.
He is already over fifty years old, and it is time to consider finding a successor.
Thinking about these dream plots related to herself, Fang Qingrou stood up, came to the door of the wooden house, and opened the wooden door with a little anticipation.
This time may be where the main plot of the dream world officially begins. After all, her channeling ceremony has ended, and it is time to advance the main plot.
However, when she opened the wooden door, the person who appeared in front of her was beyond her expectation.
"ah........"
She was just about to say the other person's name, but then she noticed that there were several people following behind Lu Qing, so she immediately suppressed what she wanted to say.
"Who are you looking for?" Fang Qingrou rolled her eyes and asked.
"I am an old friend of Charles, and I came to see him." The Pope stepped forward to Fang Qingrou and said with a smile.
"Qingrou, who's here?" Char, who was inside the house, heard the sound at the door and walked out of the kitchen.
When he saw the Pope standing at the door, his eyes suddenly fell into a trance. Then he looked at Lu Qing, who was standing next to the Pope, and his eyes stayed for a moment on the crown above his head.
"Isn't this His Majesty the Pope? What brought you here?" Charles looked at the Pope and raised his eyebrows.
"Of course it's the spirit of friendship, my old friend." The Pope smiled, then looked at Charles and said, "Do you mind letting us go inside to chat first?"
"Of course it's no problem. After all, there are two lovely ladies here, so we can't let them freeze." Charlie looked at Lu Qing and Irene and said.
"..."
Lu Qing and Irene didn't say anything, but Fang Qingrou consciously moved out of the way.
The Pope walked into the house with Lu Qing and the others, and Knight Myron, who was walking at the back, closed the door, blocking out the cold air.
After a while, the air in the room that had been cold due to the opening of the door became warm again under the flames of the stove.
Charles put a pot of water on the stove, waited for it to boil slowly, looked at the Pope and said: "So, what do you want to do here this time?"
"Training." The Pope glanced at Lu Qing and said.
Char raised his eyebrows, probably guessing something.
He looked at the crown on Lu Qing's head and said, "Did her parents agree?"
"Yes, I have agreed." The Pope nodded, and then said seriously: "Nothing is more important than the health of the sacred tree."
"..."
"You're right." Charles was silent for a while, as if recalling the past, and said.
"So, why do you come here to train?" Charles asked again.
"There's nothing here except snow."
"No, you are here." The Pope said seriously.
"Me?" Charles was stunned for a moment, wondering what the Pope meant.
"You are the most famous hunter in Freymures, and you are also the most powerful hunter I know."
"I want to ask you to help me find a creature that is not very strong but is contaminated by the void."
"..." After a pause, the Pope added: "At the same time, I came back to see my hometown."
"Look at the old friend I haven't seen for many years." The Pope did not say this sentence, but just thought about it in his heart.
"Using creatures polluted by the void to simulate the dirt of the holy tree?" Char touched his chin and pondered.
"Yes, but before that, you still need a lot of practice, so there is no need to rush, just find it at your own pace." The Pope nodded.
"Okay, I understand." After thinking for a while, Charles agreed to the Pope's commission.
On the one hand, this commission is not difficult, and at the same time, it is a request from an old friend whom I have not seen for a long time.
Secondly, this matter is related to the cultivation of the Pope's successor and the health of the future Holy Tree. Such an important matter really deserves to be taken seriously.
"Oh, by the way, have you eaten? It's just time for dinner here." Charles looked at the boiling kettle in front of him and suddenly thought of something.
"Hahaha, we haven't eaten either." The Pope laughed loudly and said, "You don't mind if we have a meal at your place."
"Of course not, it's just a little money for food." Charles smiled and shook his head.
"That's good."
The Pope nodded meaningfully and subconsciously glanced at Lu Qing, who had been sitting aside obediently from the beginning.
Her Royal Highness the Princess doesn't know if she has any special constitution, but she has a very big appetite. The two days of journey were really eye-opening for him.
"I hope Charles won't regret it after a while..." The pope thought in his heart, while silently taking a sip of boiled water.
