The news of the Pope's assassination spread quickly, and the bishops of various city-states in the Theocracy sent their elites to search for traces of Ronald.
There was no need for the archbishop and high priests to instruct the bishops and believers. The moment the bishops and believers received the information, apart from those who had to stick to their posts, a large number of believers from border city-states stood up and cooperated with the knights to guard key passes, or went deep into the mountains and wilderness to try
Intercept Ronaled, who is likely to escape from the territory of the Theocracy.
Staying far away from the city-state, avoiding the crowds, and walking in the mountains and forests, Ronaled fled for two days and two nights. Based on the map imprinted in his mind, he confirmed that he was about to leave the border of the Theocracy.
The extremely tired Ronald stopped. The long run made him exhausted. He fled in a hurry and was unprepared. At this moment, he looked like a wild man, without the dignity of the Archbishop of the Enforcement Court.
There is naturally no shortage of food in the deep mountains and forests. Among the many preys that can be chosen, Ronaled chose rabbits. He killed four of them in one breath. There was a sense of hatred in his eyes when they were skinned and bled. His eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes.
The rabbits had turned into Sierras, and it wasn’t until all four “Selas” were on the grill that he felt his inner depression eased a little.
After eating every Sera cleanly, chewing and sucking all the bones, Ronald stood up.
A figure suddenly appeared in front of him, quietly and without any warning. As a fifth-level magician, Ronaled never felt the movement of the person at all.
The silver-white robe with gold trim covered him tightly, with only a few light brown hairs peeking out from the edge of the hood. The silver maple leaf logo on the chest of the robe was very eye-catching, shining in the sunlight.
He stood silently, but it seemed as if his back was backed by endless light, which even made the scenery behind him distort and tremble.
Just like the Silver Maple Sacred Tree that Ronald Reid has looked up at countless times.
"The incarnation of radiance..."
Ronald Reid struggled to say these words,
All the energy in his body was drained at this moment, and he laughed, laughing and crying at the same time.
"Since my birth, the glorious incarnation has been the myth of the Theocracy. Countless believers only hear its name but never see its person... I started as a halo warrior, then a missionary, a city-state priest, a city-state bishop, and later a bishop..." Luo
Nared shed tears and gritted his teeth, "Until I became the Archbishop of the Enforcement Tribunal and became one of the core powers of the Theocracy, I have never seen you, nor am I qualified to summon you."
"Is this to fulfill my wish? In order to kill me, you showed up."
Now, Ronaldinho has let go and decided to say all the words in his heart that could be considered "blasphemous".
"Speak, extension of the will of the Theocracy, you fake things built by the Theocracy and born out of false beliefs!"
As one of the Archbishops, Ronald Reid knew very well that the so-called God of Glory, the Doctrine of Glory, the Silver Maple Sacred Tree, and even the history of the Theocracy were all false.
"Archbishop Ronald of the Law Enforcement Court, you should walk with more dignity. If you are not full...there is still a lot here."
The radiant incarnation made a female voice as soft as flowing water. As she waved her hands, groups of hares appeared behind her. They gathered at the feet of the radiant incarnation and stared blankly at Ronaled.
Among the rights that have not been deprived of are those whose crimes are so heinous that the Theocratic State must be punished with death - they can have a full meal before they die, and if their application is approved, they can change the meal provided by the Theocratic State to what they want.
As the Archbishop of the Law Enforcement Tribunal, Ronald Reid is very aware of this right. From the perspective of the incarnation of radiance, he has also granted these sinners the last benefit they can receive.
There were no meals customized to your needs, just one hare after another.
He hates rabbits, all rabbits!
"Laurent sent you here?" Ronald, who knew his fate, no longer used honorifics.
"You made the wrong choice." The Glory Avatar said, "The Pope does not want to kill you. You are still loyal to the Theocracy. As long as you hand over your rights and wait until the new Pope is crowned, you will see the light of day again. It is a pity that you took action and chose
To escape."
"Made the wrong choice? Do you mean to let me leave my destiny to the new Pope?"
Brilliance turns into silence.
"I don't understand why Laurend is so fond of that dead rabbit. She is just an orphan rescued by believers in the great cold wave. Because of her beautiful voice, she was thrown into the choir by the high priest, and she happened to be
Laurend discovered...what is so special about her that it is worthy of Laurend to take her by his side, treat her favorably, train her, and give her the best things!"
"First the saint, then the divine choice, reaching the sky in one step! She gained Laurent's knowledge, experience, and wisdom, all just because Laurent happened to go to listen to the hymn that day... Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"Now this hymn singer will gain the supreme status of the Theocracy. As the chosen one, she has accumulated countless popularity, so she can naturally wear the crown of the Pope, take over Laurent's mantle and look down on all the beings of the Theocracy... With this
What is she!"
The voice of the radiant incarnation had no fluctuation: "Archbishop Ronald, you seem to have forgotten that you were once a thief, and you became the Archbishop of the Law Enforcement Court just because you happened to be tolerated by the Archbishop and had your history of stealing wiped out by the Pope.' Although
"While you are in darkness, you should still yearn for light.' This is Lord Laurent's message to you."
"Your hatred towards Thera God's Chosen is unreasonable, because you have also been bathed in the light from the sky and been reborn. With all due respect, you seem to be a little bit hateful because of love. Thera God's Chosen rejects your request.
Your courtship has made you a little distorted...Of course your courtship is also a little distorted. Apart from naked desire, you seem to have no special emotions for the Chosen of Serra, and there is even the idea of approaching the Crown of the Hierarchy through the Chosen of Serra."
Ronaled stared at the radiant incarnation and sneered: "It was Laurend who asked you to explain all this to me. He must have also asked you to let me die without any doubts, right?"
"Exactly."
Ronaled spat: "Hypocrisy."
"In order for Serra to take over the papal crown, all potential competitors and those who are unfavorable to Serra will be eliminated sooner or later. Now it's me, and the next one should be those archbishops and archbishops who were ready to take action when Laurende fell ill.
Priests, you’ve already reached this point, why bother pretending to cover it up?”
The radiant incarnation chuckled and said: "The Chosen God of Serra will not become the next pope, and the Pope is different from what you imagined. Well, I have completed the Pope's instructions. In order to keep the secrets of the Theocracy... Archbishop, please
, bathe in the light.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ronald was enveloped in a bright light. He could only shout "Hypocrisy" before completely disappearing from the world.
The strong light dissipated, the radiance incarnation snapped its fingers, and the hares regained consciousness and fled in all directions.
In the sound of a blade of grass being moved, the incarnation of glory left.
After a while, a group of adventurers holding magic sensing devices came to the place where Ronaled was executed, and the scale that showed the residual magic power reached its peak.
"Sixth level remnant...this...what exactly is this..."
"The battle has been over for a long time... There is still such a powerful remnant. Could it be that it is level seven or above... What happened here?" The speaker swallowed subconsciously.
…
…
Border of Yas Kingdom, Earldom of Nott.
Judith was walking on the road leading two fully loaded horses. Behind her, Olga looked left and right, constantly sensing her surroundings.
"Ever since we came out of the city, a group of people has been following us." Olga frowned, stopped and did some calculations, "About ten people."
"Olga, don't stop, keep walking." Judith reminded in a low voice, "Don't show any flaws."
Olga, who was holding a magic wand, was not very good at acting, so in order to cover up, she had to hum a cheerful ditty.
After entering the dense forest, the people following them appeared at the same time, sandwiching Judith and Olga on the left and right.
"Hand over the food obtained from the transaction. Considering that we are both Yasi people, I will not kill you."
Judith recognized them at a glance as the adventurers who originally wandered around the Earldom of Nott and relied on the Adventurer's Guild to make a living.
The turmoil in Yas that started a year ago resulted in a scarcity of commissions from the Adventurer's Guild. Powerful adventurers could still maintain their income, while ordinary adventurers had no choice but to get involved - proactively find clients and lower their worth to obtain commissions in order to make ends meet.
Just as Lu Yu predicted, after the death of the Goblin King, Yas, which had lost its foreign enemies, quickly developed internal problems. The nobles pursuing independence were ready to move. After the matter of the Earl of Nott's private minting of coins was brought to the table,
The civil war begins.
Everything happened so suddenly. The people in Yas did not expect that things would develop so fast. Many people waited until the war started and it was too late to hoard food. Although both the lords and King Yas III strictly restrained the raising of food prices during the war,
Food prices continue to skyrocket.
High food prices forced countless people to "volunteer" to become soldiers and participate in this civil war.
Judith, who often dealt with smuggled food traders in the city-state, saw countless adventurers like her in the past who were in dire straits. They gave up their dignity in order to have a bite to eat, and either sold their sons or daughters, or gave their loved ones to the lord's guard.
member…
Every time at this time, Judith would think of the flesh and blood chariot that broke through the wall and appeared in front of them in the underground palace that night, as well as Lu Yu.
This is a magical man who used a strange summoning object to turn the kingdom's troubled Goblin Palace upside down, eventually leading to the fall of the Goblin King.
It was Lu Yu who reminded them when they were leaving and provided them with a safe hiding place, which allowed them to hide in an inaccessible place early before the chaos in Yas and got together with a big guy who looked fierce but was actually cute.
Watch and help each other.
"Ouch~~~"
The shuddering howls of wolves resounded through the dense forest, and countless monsters fled in panic.
The robbers surrounding Judith felt the ground shake slightly, and subconsciously looked into the depths of the jungle, where a pair of pale golden eyes dimly lit up in the darkness.
With a wave of her hand, Olga released wind magic that could increase the speed of the white wolf. Magic shields with several attributes lit up one after another, seamlessly. Her casting speed was enough to put many of Mera's magicians to shame.
.
"Run...run away!"
The frightened robbers turned around and ran away. The white wolf jumped out of the darkness as fast as lightning, and after sweeping its sharp claws, red flowers bloomed on the ground one after another.
In an instant, the surroundings returned to silence.
Looking at the group of robbers who remained silent, Judith sighed, and Olga closed their eyes for them one by one, and took away the suicide notes they carried with them.
They used to feel sad about this scene and thought about whether they could let go of these people who took risks in order to survive, but in the end they did not do that.
Lu Yu informed in advance that the turmoil was coming in the hope that they and Bai Lang could survive the crisis safely. Bai Lang must have a special meaning to Lu Yu... For his own sake and for Bai Lang's sake, their hiding place must not be leaked.
Since you have chosen to attack them, you must be prepared to die. Adventurers should have this awareness.
The white wolf had no idea about the corpses on the ground. After wiping his bloody paws on the ground, he walked to the two horses and snorted. The two horses tensed up and immediately started running hard.
The white wolf, who was extremely sensitive to smells, later confirmed that no one was following her. Judith, who was in front of her, walked around in the forest for a long time before heading towards the big tree hole. It was already sunset when she arrived home.
"Where are Warren and Waller?" Judith looked around in confusion while storing the purchased grains in the dug cellar, "Where did they go?"
"Where's dinner?" Olga was concerned about another thing, "I'm hungry, they won't be lazy and wait for us to cook."
The returning white wolf looked around in confusion, lowered his head and sniffed hard, tilted his head and squinted his eyes, as if he was remembering something.
"White Wolf, what do you smell?"
Judith drew her weapon nervously and looked around for a while, but she couldn't see Warren or Waller, which made her feel something was wrong. In the past, when she came back, they would come out with dinner to greet her.
Without waiting for a response from the white wolf, Judith and Olga took a mouthful of mud instead.
"This guy, what are you doing in a hurry when you kick off the ground?" Olga complained after spitting out the mud.
"Follow me quickly, something might happen!" Judith's heart was pounding, and uu Kanshu www.uukanshu.com had already imagined the worst possibility.
Driving along in a lightning-fast pace, Judith suddenly discovered that the white wolf's destination was the large arable land they had opened up. She seemed to hear the voices of Warren and Waller vaguely.
With her curiosity aroused, she sped up and rushed forward. Looking past the huge body of the white wolf, Judith saw a familiar yet unfamiliar figure.
"you you…"
"Oh, they're all here." Lu Yu smiled and patted the mud on his hands, "White Wolf, Judith, and Olga... Pfft... I'm sorry, I miss you every time I read your name.
I want to laugh, forgive me!"
"All in all, I haven't seen you all for a long time, and I'm very happy to see you all doing well."
