Hearing that the messenger wanted to summon him alone, Ray Font was immediately excited. He grabbed Ariel's arm in flattery and asked three times: "Really?"
"Of course it's true. How could I lie to you about such a big thing?" Ariel said confidently.
"That's good." Ray Font said very quickly.
As soon as he finished speaking, like a rabbit with a tail on fire, he ran towards the inn where Allen was with a "swish" sound.
Looking at Ray Font's quickly retreating back, and then looking down at his round belly, Ariel sighed silently unconsciously, thinking: When can I run as fast as this brat?
…………
However, when Ray Font stepped into the door of the inn, his joy gradually faded and was gradually replaced by nervousness.
This meeting was the first time the two met after the battle between the Lord Messenger and the angels of the Church of Light.
On the one hand, Ray Font had heard that the Lord Messenger had become a little different from before after that thrilling battle - according to the description of the high priest Delphi and his student Vann Igneel,
That is, "Sometimes, I even suspect that it is my Lord who is coming in person."
On the other hand, the current internal situation in the Kingdom of Greyhawk is serious, and the new king Mayfield I has clearly betrayed his previous alliance with the Black Temple. Under such a tense situation, Ray Font is looking forward to the envoy to give him a heavy responsibility.
, to punish those who disrespect the great god of darkness and his messenger.
"Come in."
When Ray Font carefully arrived at the second floor of the inn, he heard a dull voice coming from inside the house.
Ray Font gently opened the door and entered in response.
"I have met the envoy, sir." He bowed and saluted.
Alan York, the messenger of the God of Darkness, was sitting quietly in an armchair by the window. He put his arms on the armrests of the chair and glanced at the scenery outside the window, as if he didn't notice Ray Font at all.
arrival.
But Ray Font did not dare to disturb the messenger's thoughts.
He just stood aside quietly, waiting for the messenger's instructions.
I don't know how much time passed, but Allen finally said leisurely: "Have you ever felt that the residents of this plane don't seem to have much respect for the gods?"
This question came out of nowhere. Ray Font didn't know what the messenger's purpose was for asking this question.
He only dared to lower his head and show his loyalty in the safest way: "As long as the messenger gives the order, I will kill all those who are disrespectful to God."
Allen seemed amused by his remarks.
All he heard was Allen chuckled and responded: "No need. If you kill all the people on this plane, where will my Lord's followers come from?"
Ray Font nodded repeatedly and said nothing.
Lord Messenger was as enigmatic as ever. Ray Font felt that with his stupid mind, he couldn't keep up with Lord Messenger's thoughts.
Afterwards, Allen paused for a while, and then continued: "Lei, you have to understand that there are hundreds of countries on the plane of Payne, and there are also hundreds of countries that are either real or fictional.
of gods.
"Unlike the residents of the Kingdom of Braden who worship the gods, the people of the Pain plane treat the gods like commodities.
“If the gods can help them, they will not be stingy with their beliefs and sacrifices; but if a certain god loses its use value to them, then they will abandon this god and turn to another one.
The embrace of a god."
Having said this, Allen grinned and said: "Perhaps other gods can tolerate their preference for the new and dislike the old. But you have to understand that my lord is a very vengeful god."
It seems inappropriate to use the word "vengeful" to describe a god. But at this moment, in Lei Fant's view, when such a description is said by the messenger himself, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.
Appropriate.
"What are your orders from the envoy?" When Leifant smelled a hint of fighting in the air, he asked the envoy without hesitation.
Allen smiled and replied: "Take the sword given to you by my lord, and then at the right time, go and kill all those people who blasphemed my lord."
"yes."
…………
After Ray Font left, Allen met Sean Derek again in the inn room. After briefly explaining the next matters, he stood up from the chair, put on his hood, and turned his face
He hid in the shadows, then turned around and left the room, arriving on the streets of Castle Greyhawk.
At this time, the street was still very lively.
In order to recruit priests for the Dark Temple, King Mayfield I did not hesitate to give extremely generous treatment, which caused everyone on the roadside to talk about it, and Allen secretly found it funny.
But Allen did not participate in it. He knew that the time to solve the problem had not yet come, so he only needed to observe secretly and make full preparations.
However, at this moment, Allen suddenly heard a set of conversations like this from the surrounding pedestrians:
"Hey, do you know? A very strange thing happened when I was sleeping last night. I feel like my house is haunted!"
"What happened? Is it terrible?"
"I clearly remember that I locked all the doors and windows of my house yesterday before going to bed. But when I woke up this morning, I saw that there was a note beside my pillow out of thin air?"
"Note? Could it be that a creditor wants to use this method to collect debt from you?"
"How is that possible? I don't owe anyone money. Besides, the content on that note has nothing to do with borrowing money."
"What's on the note? Can you tell me?"
"The content on the note is this: 'Alan, come back quickly! Mr. Merlins is in trouble, and we need your help.' The signature is a girl's name, called 'Selena Solomon'."
"But the problem is that I don't know either 'Alan' or 'Mr. Merlins'. There is no reasonable explanation for this matter other than being haunted."
"..."
Allen stood quietly on the roadside, listening to this conversation, his expression on his face did not change at all.
He didn't know how the note came to Payne's plane, or whether the information on the note was true, but thinking about the goddess of light who had become powerful recently and the angel he encountered not long ago, he couldn't help but start to worry.
The current situation of Braden Kingdom.
So Allen stepped forward and said: "Sir, can you show me the note you mentioned?"
