01106 Enter the castle

Perhaps because they couldn't beat them, those church knights did not maintain their arrogant attitude, but negotiated peacefully with the soldiers guarding the city. Through my extraordinary hearing, I knew that these church knights were preparing to go to the epidemic area, and here

They chose it as their last supply station. Even the black-hearted lords had to be timid when facing the regular army of the church. Even if there was a fight, it was absolutely impossible for these miscellaneous armies to wipe out all the knights.

Bai Yanghua went crazy again. She actually wanted to take this opportunity to throw plague-infected things into the city to launch an attack. I slapped her hard twice to make her understand how crazy and evil her idea was. In order to avoid this

The girl had more terrible thoughts, and I decided to go to the city now to investigate the situation. If there are really all evil people in this castle, then it is not impossible to punish them.

Since this group of knights belongs to the Southern Church, and our disguised identity is the Northern Church, they cannot recognize the lies we made up. However, they are suspicious of why two nuns are running around alone.

They even suspected that we were people who betrayed the church and ran away, and wanted to conduct a so-called heresy trial on us. Fortunately, we pretended to be God's maids and took out the emblem to identify ourselves. They finally put aside their doubts, but they still treated us

The mission was full of questions. So I had to follow the story made up by Sister Sai and tell them that we were the chosen ones and were performing secret missions and so on.

I thought they would be frightened by this rhetoric and treat us with respect, but unexpectedly their reaction was very strange. Although they believed what I said, they offered to act together with us on the grounds that they wanted to protect us.

.I refused this proposal by saying "Everyone has their own mission", but they actually said that the previous mission was not important, and protecting us was more important. Their reason was that the nearby villages and towns had basically been slaughtered by the local lords and churches.

There is nothing to clean up. They went to the epidemic area this time just to check for deficiencies. Now that they have met us, the chosen ones, it is their mission to protect us. This is completely in line with the church's philosophy of putting the overall situation first.

Naturally, it is impossible for us to allow this large group of strangers to follow us, not to mention that their purpose is not clear. I don't believe that they are really trying to protect us. They must have some ulterior motive. Although I have no idea what the purpose is.

But Bai Yanghua and I have reached a consensus, which is to find a way to get rid of them. The people in the church are all lunatics with mental problems, and I already regret taking the initiative to get involved with them.

Most of the people in the castle were the lord's private soldiers, as well as some servants and other support staff. The total number of people was probably close to a thousand. This was already a large army in this era. No wonder the lord didn't run away in a hurry.

It was to search the surrounding areas. It turned out that there were too many people and we couldn't run fast even if we wanted to. It was better to take our time. Only then did I realize that this lord was actually very smart. The reason why he ordered the massacre of the village was to slow down the spread of the plague.

Speed, rather than simply killing for the sake of killing. If we try to stop them from massacring villages without antibodies, then maybe we will do bad things with good intentions.

Baiyanghua was still in a state of indignation and trance, so she still wanted to kill everyone here. So I dragged her around the castle to let her figure out the truth.

"Amy, what are you doing! I don't want to go sightseeing in this den of sin!"

Baiyanghua waved her hands reluctantly, not cooperating with me at all.

"Don't move! Be careful of shaking Yesha unconscious!"

I adjusted the rack on my back to prevent the little animals from being shaken off. Ever since Baiyanghua went crazy, I took over the task of carrying the little animals from her, and I felt more at ease carrying it on my own.

"Don't take me around anymore! I'm afraid I won't be able to help myself and start killing people!"

Poplar flowers are shouting loudly in my head.

"You're killing people! You're an ordinary person who grew up in a peaceful world. How can you kill people?"

"Why not! Wouldn't it be nice to trample them all into pieces!"

"Do you think soldiers with swords will let you trample on them! The ones you killed before were all maimed by me, okay? I told you not to go to extremes. Before, you were in pain because you killed someone, but now you actually want to

Taking the initiative to kill people? Is there something wrong with your brain?"

"There's just something wrong with my brain!"

"If there's a problem, fix it, don't make trouble for me!"

"I'm not causing trouble! I just want to find a place to stay quietly instead of wandering around here!"

"It's not just wandering around! Look!"

"what are you looking!"

"Look at those poor people working! They are all slaves, healthy people, a group that is oppressed and exploited, and are not even treated as human beings. Do you think they are also accomplices in evil!"

"What...aren't they the lord's lackeys!"

"Of course not! They were all forced!"

"..."

"Take a good look at Yanghua. Think about how terrible your previous thoughts were! You actually want to kill everyone in the castle! Then we will really become heinous villains!"

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"How about we give them the antibodies."

"What! You actually want to save these villains!"

"I'm not saving villains, I'm saving these poor innocent people!"

"Can't we just kill the villains and let them go?"

"Then watch them being slaughtered by the church?"

"This... we can tell the church about the antibodies! That's right! Then they have no reason to kill people casually! We are the chosen ones, so our words still have weight, and we can also prove it!"

"I don't think it's appropriate."

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know either, but it always feels wrong."

"That's what you say!"

"No, I'm just thinking about ways to maximize the use of these villains. The goddess believes that executing criminals is a wasteful act, and it is wise to use their value rationally. These people have stronger mobility than ordinary civilians, I think

The hope is that they will be better at spreading antibodies."

"...You are right, but don't forget that these guys are villains who kill without blinking an eye. Maybe they killed more people than they saved after they fled to other places."

Baiyanghua regained her composure.

"Yanghua, your words reminded me."

"Have you figured out a way?"

"We can try to lure them to a deserted wasteland to take refuge, so that they will not harm other people, and we can also use their strength to open up wasteland and build a base. There is no owner of the land in this world, so it will not be the same wherever they run.

.”

"But... how do we do this? And even if they establish such a stronghold, they will only save themselves, and they will not be able to help others?"

"What do you think would happen if we turned this stronghold into a holy city that has magical powers and is flocked to by everyone?"

"Ah? Just you and me? Can we do it?"

"How will you know if you don't try? Rather than running around the world to spread the antibodies ourselves, it's better to let them spread it themselves. This is definitely faster."

"Let me think about it..."

"Well, I will need you, think about it."
