Chapter 1999 It’s better to do the right thing than to do the wrong thing
Of course, everything has two sides. For convicted sinners and heretics, the holy flame is also the most terrible punishment, because when it burns the body, it will also burn the soul.
Almost all religions regard burning as the most extreme form of torture.
For example, witches in the Middle Ages were burned at the stake if they were caught, and a large group of people were called to kill chickens and scare monkeys to watch.
The astronomer Bruno who advocated the heliocentric theory, the natural scientist Servetus during the Renaissance, and the famous French Saint Joan of Arc all died at the stake.
Although Jenny could not make any sound, her distorted face and trembling posture deeply conveyed pain and despair. The people next to her, including the Legend Team, felt extremely depressed and could not even breathe.
All a little suffocated.
Goat couldn't help but said in the team channel:
"Damn, this move is too vicious. What if it's used on me?"
Fang Linyan said calmly:
"It won't work. First, space will protect us, and then Athena will also protect us, but it's hard to tell about the centaur tribe members you summoned."
Xingyi couldn't help but said:
"This woman is also unlucky. At that time, I wanted to tear her mouth out when I saw how proud she was. But now, looking at her miserable condition, I feel a little pitiful."
Omi said calmly:
"If you choose the wrong path, say the wrong thing, and don't have the strength to bear the consequences, then this is what you will end up with!"
Under Aleven's deliberate control, the holy flame burned for five minutes before it was extinguished. Wisps of white powder fell from the air, probably only two or three grams. This was the only thing Jenny had ever lived in the world.
evidence.
At this time, the sound of "Dede" came from the side. It was the sound made by Yang Si's teeth hitting each other in extreme fear. He noticed that Aleven looked towards him and immediately knelt down.
He begged and cried bitterly:
"I am guilty, I repent, I am willing to dedicate everything I have, I just ask you to spare my life!!"
Aleven said expressionlessly:
"Yang Si, your wife was sick, and you tried your best to come to the church to ask for holy water to cure her. Faced with the mercy of my God, you also swore to be loyal to my God, but this time you backed down before the heresy's threats.
Already."
"The Lord has mercy on the world, and the Lord will not punish you for your cowardice, but you will no longer be welcome in any church of the God of Order. Just go."
Yang Si stayed there for more than ten seconds, completely unable to believe that he had passed the test like this. Then he turned around and ran outside. He just took five or six steps and fell down with a thud.
He was lying on the ground. It looked like he had fallen very hard. He must have hit his lower lip and was bleeding profusely.
However, even though he was in the severe pain of falling, Yang Si still gritted his teeth and continued to crawl forward. Then when the pain subsided, he stood up and continued to trot with a limp. It seemed that he didn't dare even for half a second.
He stayed a little longer, but soon his loud wails were heard in the distance.
After all, although the God of Order did not punish him, in this god-dominated society, if he was branded as a hypocrite, he was destined to be cast aside by mainstream society.
However, in the eyes of Fang Linyan and others, this treatment is reasonable. After all, the core law of the God of Order is order. Everything must run under the established rules. If the rules can be changed at will, it will violate the God himself.
of the priesthood.
Therefore, when Jenny made a mistake, Aleven was like a judge, able to choose the punishment scale from light punishment to severe punishment - of course, he chose the heaviest one.
However, Yang Si did not talk nonsense, so although Aleven wanted to kill him, he could only follow the order and drive him out of the church. After all, rules are rules.
Of course, it can be seen from the hatred in Aleven's eyes that this matter may not end like this.
But even if Aleven wants to find trouble in the future, he will definitely have to resort to false accusations, frame-up, etc. You can't just say that I don't like you and want to deal with you.
Then, Aleven looked at Rothbacher and said calmly:
"I sent you out to receive distinguished guests this time. I was originally more optimistic about you and gave you a chance to be promoted, but..."
Having said this, Aleven shook his head slightly, with a hint of desolation in his words:
"You go to the court to report. I will find someone to take your place."
Roth Bacher's eyes were filled with tears, but he didn't dare to say a word. He could only nod his head tremblingly.
"Wait a minute."
Fang Linyan suddenly smiled and said.
Aleven said:
"Honored Guardian, what's the matter?"
Fang Linyan said:
"I have no intention of interfering with all decisions made by the great Church of Order. I just want to make a small suggestion, because this suggestion is related to our vital interests."
Aleven forced out a smile and said:
"Your Excellency, please speak."
Fang Linyan pointed at Rothbacher and said:
"Actually, from the very beginning, I felt that the lady who welcomed the priest did a very good job, and judging from the fact that you selected her to do this job, she should be the most suitable person selected out of thousands."
After hearing this, the goat immediately helped and said:
"Yes, it is inevitable that a person will not make mistakes when doing things. If you want not to make mistakes, then you have to do nothing. Bishop, how you deal with her is a matter within the church. I have no intention of interfering. I just want to ask you to postpone this punishment. I
How about she hopes that she will still receive us in the coming time?"
After hearing Fang Linyan's words, Crespo immediately laughed in the team channel:
"Goat, why did you and the boss suddenly start talking to her? You must have fallen in love with her, right?"
Vulture said:
"No, this woman is as flat as the Mississippi alluvial plain. The boss doesn't like this."
Omi suddenly said:
"What do you know? A good result is worse than a good result. They made a very smart decision, and the relationship between this Aleven and her should not be ordinary. As soon as Wrench opens his mouth, he will definitely push things along."
"After all, according to the teachings of the God of Order, Rothbacher didn't actually make any big mistakes. At most, he was just a person who didn't know people well, which led to serious consequences."
After hearing Omi's analysis, the others naturally said nothing more.
After listening to Fang Linyan's words, Aleven looked at Rothbacher and said:
"Oh? In fact, she just did some trivial things within her duties, but she didn't expect that she could make the Guardian look at her differently?"
Fang Linyan smiled and said:
"No, it's because she works hard."
As expected, Aleven followed suit, looked at Rothbacher and scolded:
"Why don't you thank this Lord Guardian for interceding for you!?"
Rothbacher immediately burst into tears of gratitude.
***
Next, Fang Linyan and the others had to rush for time, and this was the territory of the Sect of Order, so Rothbacher accompanied them throughout the whole process, and they were always careful along the way.
Because flying mounts could be used throughout the entire journey, the group of people quickly arrived at their destination—Ansukka.
This is a huge city, very prosperous, with many spectacular buildings that are amazing. They are among the top ten in the entire star district. It is equivalent to hoping that the star district can compete with Shanghai, New York, and Paris.
Such a big city.
Then, with the help of the church, I settled in the most luxurious Plantagenet Hotel in the area smoothly.
Before entering the room, Fang Linyan winked at the goat. The goat immediately understood and then went to find Rothbacher and said:
"Ma'am, I really need your help with a little thing here."
At this time, Rothbacher was in the stage of making meritorious deeds and said hurriedly:
"Okay, okay, what's the matter?"
The goat took out a special longbow captured from those forest elves:
"It's like this. We accidentally obtained some things like this in the place where we performed the mission before. They should be regarded as local specialties. However, the quantity was a bit large and it would be a waste to use them as souvenirs, so we planned to sell them to make some money.
.”
"It's just that we are unfamiliar with the place and don't have many channels. Could you please help us find out the relevant prices?"
After Rothbacher heard this, he immediately took it over to check, and then immediately went to inquire about it through his own channels.
She knew very well that she owed these people a huge favor, so at this time she could only accept whatever the other party offered, even a piece of grass, and then she had to find ways to get something valuable to repay.
Favor.
To Rothbacher's surprise, the bow that Goat took out was not a commercial product. It was in quite good condition. Even with her own amateur eyes, she knew it was extraordinary.
And this is the territory of the Holy See. Rothbacher himself had very good connections to seek this reception position. As long as he can get this done, he can be promoted to another level and officially become a priest.
This may not sound like much, but you must know that Rothbacher is only twenty-two years old this year. At this time, in the entire Holy See of Order, there are only thirty-seven female priests at the age of twenty-two.
This is a huge organization that governs hundreds of trillions of believers!
So despite the fact that she is very weak in front of Aleven, the resources at her disposal are actually very abundant.
Soon, Rothbacher was rewarded by a familiar business owner:
"The type of this bow is the Bow of Life. It is a rare item carefully crafted by forest elves. It has special functions such as automatic aiming, self-healing, enhanced damage, etc. Theoretically, it takes a forest elf seventy years to
It’s quite expensive to make one.”
"It's a pity that this bow is caught in a curse. There is a lot of resentment on it. It should not be obtained through trading, but after killing. It must be purified in a special way before it can be used. Otherwise, its value will be lost."
It’s very high. Even so, the price on the market should be between eighty and one hundred gold rands. If it is a bow of life that can be used directly, the price will be at least two or three times higher."
"Is it that high?" Rothbacher asked in surprise.
This boss is called Barros, and he is a good friend of Rothbacher’s father. He also knows everything and talks about it:
"Yes, and the Bow of Life has a very special feature. If five archers use the Bow of Life to defend themselves against the enemy at the same time, and the distance between these five people cannot exceed a hundred meters, then a forest called a forest will be formed.
The bonus of the aura can increase the movement speed and attack speed of friendly forces within a hundred meters by 2%."
(Note: Don’t underestimate the 2% bonus. For example, two Liu Xiang are racing. In just one hundred meters, Liu Xiang with the aura can surpass two meters, not to mention the attack speed bonus. This kind of thing is a bonus.
If there are more people, the effect will be even greater and the value will be astonishing.)
"So, generally speaking, if we acquire this weapon, as long as we don't have a lot of money waiting to be cashed out, we will stock it up, collect five of them, and then sell them together. In this case, each one can be sold at a premium of 50%.
above."
After hearing the above figures, Rothbacher was stunned. You must know that the monthly salary she can receive is only twenty gold rands, and this is already a pretty good income.
As far as the current market conditions are concerned:
One gold rand can buy several practice weapons (gray).
The weapons used by ordinary warriors (high-quality white) are within the price range of five to ten gold rands. After all, this is what professional warriors need to survive.
Ordinary enchanted weapons (blue equipment) require thirty gold rands. Of course, they also use the most common basic enchantments, such as strength +1 and attack power +1%.
From this we can deduce how terrifying the value of this bow of life is.
The price of this bow can reach this figure, which is considered a high-quality weapon for warriors. By the way, it is still cursed, and its value is equivalent to a 30% discount!
After getting the news, Rothbacher thought about his savings for a while, then made up his mind, came to the goat's room and said:
"Your Majesty the Guardian, I just used my personal relationship to inquire about it. Your bow has an extraordinary origin and is worth more than two hundred gold rands. And someone from the merchant happened to be buying a batch at a high price, because after collecting five bows, you will
There is an additional bonus. So it is given.”
Having said this, Rothbacher gritted his teeth:
"A high price of four hundred and ten gold rands."
You know, even if this bow was taken to Rothbacher and brought to Barros, Barros would not make a penny and directly sell it at the consignment price, and he would only be able to give out 110 gold rands at most.
Therefore, the extra 300 gold rands were actually Rothbacher's private money as a subsidy, which was considered to be a thank you to the legendary team for giving him some kind words.
"Is it that high?"
The goat said in surprise.
Then, he took out a large box from the side. Seeing this scene, Rothbacher suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Sure enough, the goat opened the big box directly, and there was a box full of Bow of Life inside!
