25. Today's headlines

At the dinner that day, Sir Donald, who was in a good mood, brought out fine wine and entertained the guests.

For a while, the guests and hosts enjoyed each other's drinks and drinks.

However, all three bishops declined the dinner and left early.

But before leaving, they had to help destroy the jewelry that had been blessed during today's interview, so as not to leave traces and reveal other people's techniques.

The bishop from the original chaos volunteered to take on the matter, and asked the other two to take the first step.

He quickly used magic to dispel the blessing effects on those jewelry.

But he accidentally missed one thing——

A bracelet as hard as a three-pointed thorn...

"Ahem, as you get older, some negligence is inevitable..."

The bishop whispered, secretly hid the bracelet in his sleeve, and hurriedly said goodbye and left.

After he returned to his residence, he quickly dismissed the servants, locked himself in the room, and then carefully took out the bracelet blessed by Gallo.

"It looks like a real holy object no matter how you look at it. If it wasn't contrary to common sense, even I would be fooled..."

"Although there is a flaw that makes items hard, it can be easily solved. You just need to find things that are already hard..."

"The designer is right. There will be many believers interested in holy objects, as long as they can afford the right price."

"All this is to better spread the glory of my lord...and...my unfulfilled son..."

He whispered to himself, actually planning to steal Gallo's magic and sell it to believers as a sacred object.

In order to analyze the magic more thoroughly, he first held the bracelet, activated the magic on it, and prepared to carefully record the specific fluctuations.

But the next second, he suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart...

"Ouch! My blood! It's burning!"

He screamed strangely and violently tore off his clothes, leaving only a pair of boxer briefs. Then he spread his legs and rushed towards the wall.

After a muffled thud, a human-shaped hole was actually knocked out of the wall?

And he took advantage of this momentum and continued to rampage, flying sand and rocks along the way, and even rushed out of his own home and ran into his neighbor's house.

The streets that had been silent in the night suddenly became noisy...

Gallo, on the other hand, was enjoying a delicious supper with the old bishop and discussing the next arrangements.

"I will be rich soon. When the salary comes, I will decorate the church, right?"

The old bishop thought for a while and replied:

"Don't be in a hurry, save the money first, and when you have enough, go rent a church in a better place."

Religion in the City of Innocence has developed, and many sects have come in to test the waters, only to fail in the end. The various churches they left behind have also been purchased by real estate developers at low prices and leased to subsequent sects.

So if you have money, renting a church with a good port and a large flow of people, and decorating it in a corresponding style, is much better than staying on Old Oak Street.

"That sounds good, but how much does it cost to rent a church?"

"As far as I know, you will definitely need dozens of gold a year..."

"this..."

"So, you have to work harder, and I have to work harder to preach. With your level of magic, if you want to make money..."

As the old bishop was talking, he almost spilled the beans and quickly changed his words:

"It still takes a lot of hard work. If it were your senior brother, our life now would be much better."

"Oh, senior brother... it's such a pity, God is jealous of talents..."

"But I will continue to work hard! I will try to catch up with my senior brother!"

"I really want to go to work in the weapons shop earlier, but it's a pity that I have to wait for three days... But it's just right, I will use these three days to practice more hardening magic!"

In this way, Gallo spent the whole night repeatedly contacting the simple hardening magic, striving to practice it to the level of mastery, like an arm.

So everything in the whole church suffered...

The broom and mop were as hard as a shovel, the towel and handkerchief were as hard as a razor blade, and even the little cat's fur was as hard as a little hedgehog.

He kept tossing until he was about to go to sleep, then he dispelled the effects of the magic, exercised some more, then lay on the bed and confessed to the goddess.

"I... performed so well today!"

"I... performed so well today!"

"I... performed so well today!"

"Rereading is also a sin. I hope the goddess can forgive me."

After that, he fell asleep.

Early the next morning, the headline of "Innocence Daily" published this news:

"What is the reason for a well-known bishop running naked on the street late at night? Is it a distortion of human nature or a loss of morality? Let me take you into the truth that men will cry and women will be silent."

The specific content is probably about an old old bishop who went crazy for some reason. Not only did he run naked in the street, he also ran rampant and caused chaos in the street.

Even the city defense team was dispatched, but a dozen strong young men chased and intercepted him. They were panting from exhaustion, but they couldn't do anything to him, and several people were injured in turn...

In the end, he finally managed to subdue him by using anesthesia flying knives used against large monsters.

But perhaps because the anesthetic effect was too strong, he is still unconscious, so it is not yet clear what exactly happened.

Gallo took the newspaper from the old bishop, read the news, and sighed in a low voice:

"What a shame! As a pastor, even I feel ashamed and suggest this man retire as soon as possible."

After that, he asked the old bishop who was drinking tea beside him:

"You won't be like him in the future, will you?"

The old bishop squirted and coughed repeatedly.

"Ahem, ahem, that's... of course..."

After such a small episode, Gallo spent three peaceful days and finally waited for the appointed day.

The agreed weapon is located on Victor Street in the south of the city. It is said to commemorate the first lord of the Innocence City, that is, Marquis Jeff Victor who led the army to drive out the aliens and established the Innocence City along the way.

And named.

Old Oak Street, where Gallo is located, is located in the north of the city and almost passes through the entire Innocence City. In the past, it would have been a very difficult journey, but it is different now. He is a car owner.

It was also a very high-end donkey cart, which took him only two hours to arrive at the weapons store on time.

Sir Donald's butler was already waiting at the door. When he saw Gallo coming, he looked at the pocket watch in his hand, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile:

"You are very punctual. I believe this will be the beginning of a happy cooperation."

With that said, he led Gallo into the 'Shining Sword' weapons store.
