Chapter 43 Ambition

[Brothers, the last day of the new book period is over, and Laoyue is still breaking out in the third watch! Ask for collection and recommendation! 】

The carriage continued to move forward, with the sound of horses hooves galloping outside. Although Merlin hadn't opened the curtains to see it, the bumps he felt in the carriage could roughly indicate that the carriage was fast.

"Wow."

Suddenly, the carriage gradually stopped, the curtain was pulled open, and a gust of cold wind blew in.

"Father."

There was a hint of doubt on Merlin's face, and it was old Wilson who pulled the curtain.

Old Wilson nodded slightly, and then got into the carriage directly. His face was still a little pale, but he looked much better.

"Father, is your injury okay?"

Merlin looked at Old Wilson's abdomen, where there was still an incision on the black armor.

"I'm fine, just a little hurt."

Old Wilson paused, then raised his head and stared at Merlin for a while before he sighed: "Merlin, you have really grown up and can bear the burden of the whole family! There are some things, I have to tell you."

"Father, talk to me if you have anything."

Merlin moved as well, leaning his body as close to the back of the carriage as possible.

"It's about this time, the church's big move, do you know what it is?"

Old Wilson's expression also became solemn.

Merlin naturally shook his head. Although he guessed that this incident was definitely not a trivial matter, otherwise Old Wilson would not have rushed back in such a hurry, but he didn't know what was going on.

Usually, the Church of Light in the Kingdom of Light, and even in several other small kingdoms, has supreme rights. Everyone believes in the God of Light, and is the spiritual leader and leader of the entire Kingdom of Light.

Merlin couldn't figure out why the Church of Light would go so far as to seize Blackwater City.

Old Wilson shook his head helplessly and said: "Originally, this matter was a secret within a secret. I have only made some guesses over the years, but now it seems that my guesses have almost become facts. The Church of Light is in the The Kingdom of Light is not one-handed to cover the sky, and there is also the containment of the Royal Family of Light and the great nobles. Even if there is a gap between the forces of the two sides, it will not be too big."

"However, in recent years, the Church of Light has expanded too fast, and it has also attracted a considerable number of small and medium-sized nobles. With the help of God's name, it has rapidly expanded its armed forces."

Merlin nodded, the armed forces of the Church of Light are probably those who guard the swordsmen, and even those who are not swordsmen of the Light, as long as they are willing to join the church, the church will allow them to become swordsmen in the church and give them some help.

These swordsmen will virtually transform into the power of the Church of Light.

"Ambition, unstoppable ambition! When the power of the Church of Light swelled to a certain point, they finally broke out... Although I can't know the situation in other places, I can probably guess that the power of the Church has an absolute advantage. , their move is to overthrow the royal family of light and establish a new kingdom ruled by the church."

Merlin's expression changed. He remembered some countries in his previous life where politics and religion were integrated. The purpose of the Church of Light was obviously the unity of politics and religion. huge country.

The Kingdom of Light is about to change!

Seeing Merlin's changing expression,

Old Wilson nodded with satisfaction, then said with a wry smile: "Merlin, the Kingdom of Light will definitely be in chaos, so we must rush back to Blackwater City as soon as possible to rescue all the people in the Wilson family."

If the church really has such ambitions as Old Wilson expected, then the entire Kingdom of Light will definitely be in complete chaos. In the Wilson Castle in Blackwater City, there are also Mei Xue, the housekeeper, and the busty lady, all of which Old Wilson couldn't give up and must be rescued.

Old Wilson never mentioned the spellcaster, nor did he ask Merlin about it, as if he had forgotten about it, but Merlin knew that Old Wilson did not mention it on purpose.

But at this time, it was necessary for Merlin to explain to old Wilson.

"Father, my teacher was a spellcaster in the Black Moon Kingdom, but he was already dead and was killed by a mage in the church."

Merlin's tone was calm, and he briefly explained the matter of old Aita.

"Merlin, I have fought with the Black Moon Kingdom on the battlefield for so many years, and I have also met some of their spellcasters... They possess a powerful and mysterious power, surpassing ordinary people, even powerful elemental swordsmen, It's not worth mentioning in their eyes, and only the mages in the Inquisition in the church can match."

Old Wilson paused, then laughed, and continued: "So, you have become a powerful spellcaster, and I am proud of you! The entire Wilson family will be proud of you!"

After saying that, old Wilson turned and jumped out of the carriage.

Merlin breathed a sigh of relief. Old Wilson had survived the "slaughterhouse" at the beginning. Whether it was a spellcaster in the Black Moon Kingdom or a mage in the church, he had seen it with his own eyes, and he naturally knew that the spellcaster was the master. A true powerhouse with great power, not an evil heresy as the Church speaks.

Old Wilson was so "reasonable" that Merlin took a few words to explain.

Merlin opened the curtain of the car and saw that the sky was getting darker and darker, and many knights had already started lighting their torches. At this speed, even if it was a starry night, they would not be able to reach Blackwater City until tomorrow.

After a day of bumping on the carriage, and having just consumed a lot of mental energy to simulate the second spell model, even Merlin was a little tired, so he leaned in the carriage and closed his eyes slightly to rest. up.

Merlin knew that when he returned to Blackwater City tomorrow, it would definitely not be peaceful. Whether it was mana or spiritual power, he needed to recover as soon as possible.

*****

In the morning of Blackwater City, there was still light snow, and some ice crystals had condensed on the ground, making it very slippery.

There was no one on the street, and it seemed very deserted.

At the gate of the city, a group of people gathered. They were all small merchants and hawkers in Blackwater City. They were all planning to leave the city early in the morning to do some business, but this morning, the city gate was still closed and not opened.

"What's the matter? Why hasn't the city gate been opened?"

"Last night, it seems that many knights entered the city, I don't know what happened."

"When will the gates open?"

In front of the city gate, many people were talking about it, but most of them didn't know what caused the city gate to close.

"I'm afraid a big change is going to happen in Blackwater City..."

Only some well-informed and shrewd people may have seen some signs, so they hurriedly turned around and walked home.
