Chapter 294 Chapter 293 Reunion After a Long Separation

Chapter 294 293. Reunion after a long absence

The news of the Pope's assassination spread quickly, and the bishops of various city-states in the Theocracy sent their elites to search for traces of Ronald.

There was no need for the archbishop and high priests to instruct the bishops and believers. The moment the bishops and believers received the information, apart from those who had to stick to their posts, a large number of believers from border city-states stood up and cooperated with the knights to guard key passes, or went deep into the mountains to try to Intercept Ronaled, who is likely to escape from the territory of the Theocracy.

Staying away from the city-state, avoiding the crowds, and walking in the mountains and forests, Ronaled fled for two days and two nights. Based on the map imprinted in his mind, he confirmed that he was about to leave the border of the Theocracy.

The extremely tired Ronald stopped. The long run made him exhausted. He fled in a hurry and was unprepared. At this moment, he looked like a wild man, without the majesty of the Archbishop of the Enforcement Court.

There is naturally no shortage of food in the deep mountains and forests. Among the many prey that can be chosen, Ronaled chose rabbits. He killed four of them in one go. There was a sense of hatred when skinning and bleeding, and his eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes. The rabbits had turned into Seras, and it wasn’t until all four “Seras” were on the grill that he felt his inner depression eased a little.

After eating every Sera cleanly, chewing even the bones, and sucking them all, Ronald stood up.

A figure suddenly appeared in front of him, quietly and without any warning. As a fifth-level magician, Ronaled never felt the movement of the person at all.

The silver-white robe with gold trim covered him tightly, with only a few light brown hairs peeking out from the edge of the hood. The silver maple leaf logo on the chest of the robe was very eye-catching, shining in the sunlight.

He stood silently, but it seemed as if his back was backed by endless light, which even made the scenery behind him distort and tremble.

It was like the Silver Maple Sacred Tree that Ronald Reid had looked up at countless times.

"The incarnation of radiance..."

Ronald Reid struggled to say these words, and all his strength was drained from his body at this moment. He laughed and cried while laughing.

"Since my birth, the glorious incarnation has been the myth of the Theocracy. Countless believers only hear its name but never see its person... I started as a halo warrior, then a missionary, a city-state priest, a city-state bishop, and a back-up bishop..." Luo Nared shed tears and gritted his teeth, "Until I became the archbishop of the Enforcement Tribunal and became one of the core powers of the Theocracy, I have never seen you and am not qualified to summon you."

"Is this to fulfill my wish? In order to kill me, you showed up."

Now that things have come to an end, Ronaldo has let go and decided to throw out all the words in his heart that could be considered "blasphemous".

"Speak, extension of the will of the Theocracy, you fake things built by the Theocracy and born out of false beliefs!"

As one of the Archbishops, Ronald Reid knew very well that the so-called God of Glory, the Doctrine of Glory, the Silver Maple Sacred Tree, and the history of the Theocracy were all false.

"Archbishop Ronald of the Law Enforcement Court, you should walk with more dignity. If you are not full...there are still many here."

The radiant incarnation made a female voice as soft as flowing water. As she waved her hands, groups of hares appeared behind her. They gathered at the radiant incarnation's feet and stared at Ronaled blankly.

Among the rights that are not deprived of those whose crimes are so heinous and must be punished by the Theocracy are the following rights - they can have a full meal before death, and if their application is approved, they can change the meal provided by the Theocracy to the style they want.

As the Archbishop of the Law Enforcement Tribunal, Ronald Reid is very aware of this right. From the perspective of the incarnation of radiance, he has given the last benefit that can be obtained to those who have committed serious sins.

There were no meals made to order, just hare after hare.

He hates rabbits, all rabbits!

"Laurent sent you here?" Ronald, who knew his fate, no longer used honorifics.

"You made the wrong choice." The Glory Avatar said, "The Pope does not want to kill you. You are still loyal to the Theocracy. As long as you hand over your rights and wait until the new Pope is crowned, you will see the light of day again. It is a pity that you took action and chose Escape."

"Made the wrong choice? Do you mean to let me leave my destiny to the new Pope?"

Brilliance becomes silence.

"I don't understand why Laurend is so fond of that dead rabbit. She is just an orphan saved by believers in the great cold wave. Because of her beautiful voice, she was thrown into the choir by the high priest, and she happened to be Laurend discovered...what is so special about her that deserves Laurend to keep her by his side, treat her well, train her, and give her the best things!"

"First the saint, then the divine choice, reaching the sky in one step! She gained Laurent's knowledge, experience, and wisdom, all just because Laurent happened to go to listen to the hymn that day... Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

"Now this hymn singer will gain the supreme status of the Theocracy. As the chosen one, she has accumulated countless popularity. She can naturally wear the crown of the Pope, take over Laurent's mantle and look down on all the beings of the Theocracy... With this What is she!"

The voice of the radiant incarnation had no fluctuation: "Archbishop Ronald, you seem to have forgotten that you were once a thief, and you became the archbishop of the Enforcement Court because you happened to be tolerated by the archbishop and had your history of stealing wiped out by the Pope.' Although "While you are in darkness, you should still yearn for light.' This is Lord Laurent's message to you."

"Your hatred for Sera's Chosen God is irrational, because you were also bathed in the light of the sky and were reborn. Excuse me, you seem to have turned hatred from love, and Sera's Chosen God's rejection of your courtship has made you a little twisted... Of course, your courtship is also a little twisted. Apart from naked desire, you don't seem to have any special feelings for Sera's Chosen God, and you even have the idea of ​​using Sera's Chosen God to get close to the crown of the pope."

Ronaled stared at the incarnation of light and sneered: "It was Laurend who asked you to explain all this to me, right? He must have also told you to let me die without doubt, right?"

"Exactly."

Ronaled spat: "Hypocrisy."

"In order for Sera to take over the papal crown, all potential competitors and people who are unfavorable to Sera will be eliminated, sooner or later. Now it's me, and the next one should be those archbishops and priests who were ready to make a move when Laurend fell ill. It has come to this point, why bother to pretend and cover up?"

The incarnation of light laughed softly and said, "Sera will not be the next pope, and the pope is different from what you think. Well, I have completed the pope's instructions. In order to keep the secrets of the church... Archbishop, please, bathe in the light."

As soon as the voice fell, Ronared was enveloped by a strong light. He could only shout "hypocrisy" and completely disappeared from the world.

The strong light dissipated, the incarnation of light snapped his fingers, and the hares regained consciousness and fled everywhere.

Amid the rustling sound of blades of grass being moved, the incarnation of light left.

Soon, a group of adventurers holding magic sensing devices came to the place where Ronald was executed, and the scale that could show the magic residue reached its peak.

"Sixth-level residue... What... What on earth is this..."

"The battle has been over for a long time... There are still such powerful residues now, could it be seventh-level or even higher... What on earth happened here?" The person who spoke swallowed his saliva subconsciously.

...

...

At the border of the Kingdom of Yas, the Earldom of Nott.

Judith led two fully loaded horses on the road, and behind her, Olga looked around and kept sensing the surroundings.

"Since we came out of the city, there has been a group of people following us." Olga frowned, stopped and calculated a little, "About ten people."

"Olga, don't stop, keep going." Judith reminded in a low voice, "Don't show any flaws."

Olga, holding a magic wand, was not very good at acting, so in order to cover up, she had to hum a cheerful little song.

After entering the dense forest, the people who were following them appeared at the same time, sandwiching Judith and Olga on the left and right.

"Hand over the food obtained from the trade. I will not kill you because we are all Yas people."

Judith recognized at a glance that these were the adventurers who had been wandering around the Earldom of Nott and lived on the Adventurer's Guild.

The Yas turmoil that began a year ago led to a scarcity of commissions from the Adventurer's Guild. Strong adventurers can still maintain their income, and ordinary adventurers can only roll inward - actively find the client, lower their value to obtain the commission, in order to make ends meet.

As Lu Yu predicted, after the death of the Goblin King, Yas, which had lost its external enemies, quickly had problems. The nobles who pursued independence were ready to move. After the matter of the Earldom of Nott privately minting coins was brought to the table, the civil war broke out.

Everything happened very suddenly. The people of Yas had never expected that things would develop so quickly. It was too late for many people to wait until the war started to stockpile food. Although both the lord and Yas III strictly prohibited raising food prices during wartime, food prices continued to rise wildly.

The artificial famine forced countless people to "voluntarily" become soldiers and participate in this civil war.

Judith, who dealt with smugglers in the city-state from time to time, saw countless adventurers like herself in the past who were in distress. In order to have a bite of food, they gave up their dignity, either sold their children, or gave their loved ones to the members of the lord's guard...

Every time at this time, Judith would think of the flesh and blood chariot that appeared in front of them in the underground palace that night, breaking through the wall, and Lu Yu.

This is a magical man who used a strange summon to turn the Goblin Underground Palace, the kingdom's heartache, upside down, and eventually led to the fall of the Goblin King.

It was also because Lu Yu reminded them before leaving and provided them with a safe hiding place that they hid in a remote place long before the Yas turmoil came, and watched and helped each other with a big guy who looked fierce but was actually cute.

"Awoo~~~"

The terrifying wolf howl resounded through the dense forest, and countless monsters fled in panic.

The robbers who surrounded Judith felt the slight vibration of the ground and subconsciously looked into the depths of the dense forest, where a pair of pale golden eyes lit up faintly from the darkness.

Olga waved her hand and released the wind magic that could increase the speed for the white wolf. Several magic shields of various attributes lit up one after another, seamlessly connected. Her casting speed was enough to make many magicians in Mela ashamed.

"Run...Run!"

The terrified robbers turned and ran. The white wolf jumped out of the darkness as fast as lightning. After the sharp claws swept over, red flowers bloomed one after another on the ground.

In an instant, the surroundings returned to silence.

Looking at the robbers who died with their eyes open, Judith sighed, and she and Olga closed their eyes one by one, and took away the suicide notes they carried with them.

They used to feel sad about this scene and thought about whether they could let go of those who took risks for survival, but in the end they didn't do that.

Lu Yu told them in advance that the turmoil was coming because he hoped that they could survive the crisis with Bai Lang safely. Bai Lang must have a special meaning to Lu Yu... For himself and Bai Lang, their hiding place must not be revealed.

Since they chose to attack them, they must be prepared to die. Adventurers should have this awareness.

Bai Lang didn't think about the corpses on the ground. After wiping his bloody claws on the ground, he walked to the two horses and snorted. The two horses tensed up and ran hard immediately.

The white wolf, who was extremely sensitive to smells, stayed behind to confirm that no one was following. Judith, who was in front, wandered around in the forest for a long time before heading towards the big tree hole. It was sunset when she got home.

"Where are Valen and Waller?" Judith looked around in confusion while storing the purchased food in the dug cellar. "Where did they go again?"

"Where is dinner?" Olga was concerned about another thing. "I'm hungry. They won't be lazy and wait for us to cook again."

The returning white wolf looked around in confusion, lowered his head and sniffed fiercely, tilted his head, squinted his eyes, and seemed to recall something.

"White Wolf, what do you smell?"

Judith nervously drew her weapon and looked around but couldn't see Valen and Waller. This made her feel something was wrong. In the past, when she came back, they would come out with dinner to greet her.

Judith and Olga didn't wait for the response from the white wolf, but ate a mouthful of mud.

"What is this guy doing?" Olga spit out mud and complained.

"Hurry up and catch up, something might happen!" Judith's heart was pounding, and she had imagined the worst possibility.

As they drove along at lightning speed, Judith suddenly discovered that the White Wolf's destination was actually the large tract of farmland they had opened up. Indistinctly, she seemed to hear the voices of Valen and Waller.

Curious, she rushed forward faster, and over the huge body of the White Wolf, Judith saw a familiar yet unfamiliar figure.

"You...you..."

"Oh, they're all here." Lu Yu smiled and patted the mud on his hands, "White Wolf, Judith, and Olga...Puchi...Sorry, sorry, every time I read your name, I want to laugh, forgive me!"

"Anyway, I haven't seen you all for a long time, and I'm very happy to see that you're all doing well."
