Chapter 369: Enemy at the Gate

In the morning, Clown left the bedroom quietly. After a fierce battle last night, Eliza, who had a light sleep, was dreaming.

He pushed open the door of the next room. The two trained beasts raised their heads alertly. Seeing that it was the master coming in, Buster made a flattering sound, "Meow."

Fu Jin made a proud "quack" and fluttered his wings a few times, as if stretching.

The silver-level crow did have a reason to be proud, at least Clown did not find relevant records in the book.

"Hey, Fu Jin, I will be away for a while. You and Buster will be responsible for patrolling the edge of the city at night until I come back, but you can't leave the area of ​​the shelter array."

"Quack," this time the call was much more perfunctory.

"Little guy, don't work hard, wait to be roasted by me when you come back."

The growth of strength made the crow arrogant again, but Clown did not indulge it. A wisp of cold air of Taiyin power was transmitted along the connection between the Tao seeds.

The crow's constitution is friendly to the power of the sun, which conflicts with the power of the moon. In addition, Clown's understanding of the law is far better than that of the crow, so this proud bird immediately suffered a lot.

For a moment, Fu Jin felt that he was on the top of a snowy mountain, and the biting cold made him shudder suddenly.

"Quack," the crow immediately recharged his respect and made a firm statement.

Clown nodded slightly, picked up the black cat and stroked it a few times, and said with a smile:

"Kitty, you come with me this time."

He was worried that Bast might reach the critical point of advancing to silver, and there might be an accident.

He pushed open the window, spread his wings behind him, and flew to the roof.

At this time, the morning sun rose, and the gray fog was slowly dispelled. The sky seemed to have more golden clouds, and finally the gray fog disappeared completely, and the blue sky was like a crystal clear sapphire.

Clown faced the sun, sat cross-legged and visualized the golden light spell. Over the years, visualization has become an instinct.

The black cat squatted on the left side of its owner, also facing the rising sun, and entered into meditation at the same time. Fujin flew up silently and leaned down on the right side of his owner.

On the roof, three balls of light lit up, competing with the sun.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Clown finished his meditation. At this time, the temperature of the surface had become hot, and the place where the sun shone was even more stuffy.

He walked to the restaurant and sat down to enjoy breakfast. William skillfully poured a glass of red wine.

At this time, the assistant butler Lord Morrison came up, bowed slightly and said: "Sir, someone has been sent to the church to inform the Pope's envoy. The agreed schedule is to meet at the airship parking lot at 8:30."

Clown said "hmm" and swallowed the steak in big mouthfuls.

This is food at the level of a second-level monster. If he eats it freely, a calf will not be enough.

After breakfast, he took a carriage to the parking lot. When he arrived, Silas was already waiting in front of the airship.

"Sir, please! Do you need to go to the Holy Fire Cathedral?"

After all, Hammers belongs to the Rhine Diocese. A bishop leaving the jurisdiction should report to the cardinal.

Clown shook his head slightly: "Going to the Holy Fire Cathedral will deviate from the route. Let's go directly to the Holy See to save time."

With the ability of a sixth-level extraordinary person, the range of information transmission between Dao seeds has been expanded to a radius of 100 miles. Why does he need to go there in person to report the news?

He informed Flanders last night and asked him to strengthen the defense. The archbishop said that the protection array will also be opened in the next few days.

Three days later, the airship will arrive in Bly City. Clown, who has been staying at home, walked out and came to the viewing room.

These days, he has been practicing Silver Wolf Howling Moon. With his attainments in breathing, the proficiency of this skill has improved by leaps and bounds.

After all, the breath of the flame dragon is converted into a breathing method such as flame exhalation, which has reached the sixth level.

[Silver Wolf Howling Moon: 48252/50000; fourth level]

In a few days, this breathing method will definitely be advanced, and then he can figure out how to combine it with the barbarian bone breathing method.

Silas walked over and smiled:

"I just went to inform you, but I didn't expect you to know that we were going to arrive at our destination."

"The airship has been moving at full speed. I judged our position by its speed. I didn't expect it to be so accurate."

"It is indeed very accurate."

The two of them exchanged greetings and found two airships flying by.

On the skin of one, the holy emblem of the Lord of Fire was painted, and on the skin of the other, a blank scroll was painted.

"Strange, how did the guys from the God of Knowledge get so deep into here?"

Silas muttered, the relationship between the two churches of the Lord of Fire and the God of Knowledge was not harmonious.

When facing the followers of Hephaestus, the believers of Oghma always have an irrepressible sense of superiority, but they are often beaten black and blue by these northern barbarians.

If it weren't for the red moon phenomenon and the imminent arrival of the evil god, friction between the two churches would probably happen every day.

Klauen was also a little suspicious, but he didn't care. The airship of the church followed, which meant that the other party must have obtained permission.

The height of the airship was slowly decreasing, and after a big vibration, it landed smoothly at the parking lot in the city of Bly.

Silas waved his hand, and the carriage waiting nearby came over.

This was a carriage driven by eight horses, all silver-white, with the emblem of the Saxon family lion holding a torch.

Silas opened the door attentively and said:

"Sir, let's take the carriage to the palace. It's afternoon now. Your Majesty should handle government affairs in the palace, and the dinner will be held there."

The guest follows the host's wishes, and Crown nodded: "Okay, according to your arrangements."

The carriage rushed to the palace, and the vehicle arrived at the palace with Silas's enthusiastic introduction.

When the two walked to the hall where the king handled government affairs, Arthur was already waiting at the door:

"My friend, I am very happy that you can come. May the Lord of Fire illuminate our way forward."

"May the Lord of Fire illuminate our way forward."

Crown returned the greeting, but laughed in his heart:

'Interesting, you don't call me by my position in the church, but call me friend.

You have become friends with the king, are you going to use your friend? ! '

Generally speaking, it is not a good thing for a leader to make friends with you. He judged that the situation in the Valley Province was not good.

"Let's go to my study and chat slowly. In two hours, the dinner can start."

The two exchanged greetings for a while, and Crown went straight to the point:

"Your Majesty, I have another purpose for coming this time. I want to enter the secret library of the church. I gained something from the last time I comprehended the secret art, and I want to verify whether it conforms to the description in the book."

"No problem, I will take you there after the dinner."

Arthur was slightly happy in his heart. He would be willing to have another hundred subordinates with such ability and little trouble. It would be better if such subordinates were more obedient.

The two talked about the church, and also talked about the seemingly calm but actually turbulent relationship between the churches, and finally talked about the situation in the Valley Province.

"A few days ago, the pressure on Andorhal City became much less, and Lexis and the others were enough to deal with it.

However, seven or eight days ago, the number of high-level murlocs and deep divers increased again, and the defending troops were very tired, but we did not have enough rotation troops."

Arthur sighed and said with a little sadness:

"The riots in the city of Bly have caused us to lose too much power. There is no way, so I can only ask you for help."

His attitude was very humble.

Clown hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, I will do my best. I will set off for Andorhal early tomorrow morning."

He was eager to leave as soon as possible to learn the knowledge he wanted tonight, so as to avoid wasting time with these people.

Wouldn't it be nice to have this time to easily gain experience? !

The two chatted for nearly an hour, and Arthur said:

"I see that you are a little tired. You have been on a hard journey. Why don't you go to the nearby guest room to rest for a while? What do you think?"

Which eye of yours saw that I was tired?

Clown curled his lips obscurely. He understood that the other party was using an excuse to get rid of him, so he simply stood up openly:

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am indeed a little tired. Goodbye."

"Well, goodbye. Let Silas follow you. He is very familiar with the palace. He will lead the way for you when the banquet starts."

Watching Clown leave, Arthur called Silas and asked:

"Did you find anything else when you went to Hamers this time?"

This mission also has another purpose, to investigate whether there is any gap between the internal personnel of the Rhine City Diocese and collect intelligence for future work.

Silas lowered his voice and said solemnly:

"I found that the relationship between Clown and Flanders is not as harmonious as we want."

"Oh?!" Arthur became interested, "Tell me more!"

"This is what happened." Silas recounted the conversation between the two when they left Hammers, and summarized and analyzed:

"In any case, Clown's actions must be informed to Cardinal Flanders, but we flew directly to the direction of Bly City. So, I made the judgment just now."

In Silas's opinion, this should be a sign that Clown is slowly becoming arrogant.

Arthur nodded slightly, it was indeed impolite to do so.

The banquet was finally over, and Clown and Arthur got on a carriage and headed for St. Peter's Basilica.

The two crossed the church gate, passed through the corridor and archway, and entered the church's underground sanctuary.

"Since my coronation, the repair work of the magic circle has begun. It took so long, and finally the magic circle has been repaired."

In the passage full of torches, the torches were burning with eternal fire. Under the jumping light, the figures of the two were stretched very long, twisted and evil.

Arthur opened the library, pointed inside, and said:

"I won't accompany you in. I'm next door. Call me when you leave."

"Got it, Your Majesty."

Clown saluted again, and then walked into the empty room with a high dome.

Arthur did not enter with him, which made him very satisfied. After entering, he walked straight to the innermost wall, and then put his hand on the nameplate of a book.

This time, the magic circle was activated smoothly. After an inexplicable breath flashed over the body, a small door opened.

Clown picked up the book "Soul Sublimation - The Ladder to the Gods" and read it with great interest.

The book explained in a simple and easy-to-understand way how to enter the golden level of the Holy Mark. The concentration of spiritual energy in the world increased again, and these secret knowledge finally came in handy.

With the ability to read ten lines at a glance, Clown read it through in less than two hours.

He closed the book and sorted out his thoughts.

The book said that there is a limit to the improvement of the physical fitness of creatures. When creatures reach this limit, their strength, agility and other attributes will no longer improve.

If you want to cross the limit again and sublimate the level of life, you must work on improving the "quality" of the soul.

How to improve the quality of the soul? There is a tricky secret method that can plant a seed of spiritual power in the body of ordinary people, giving these ordinary people a belief and letting them believe in themselves.

Through the law thread of the power of faith, you can use the faith of ordinary people to warm your soul.

The improvement of soul quality is only one of the requirements. Another requirement is that the understanding of the power of law must reach a very high level.

Only by using both together can it be possible to break the shackles left by the gods.

Klauen showed a faint smile. He felt that these two methods that were harsh for others were much simpler for him. The Golden Light Mantra could meet all his needs.

He put down the book with a bursting name with a sense of loss and looked for any high-level secrets that he could use.

The gray fog dominated the earth, and the protective array covering the sky above Hammers City emitted a faint golden light.

Osman stood in the shadow of the woods in the distance, staring at the soldiers patrolling on the city wall without blinking, and sneered in his heart:

'The protective array is used, very cautious. '

He went upstream along the Rhine River and arrived at this small city, but he saw the rising protective array, and felt even more unhappy.

I'll see how long your resources can open the array. Osman knew the situation in Hammers City very well. He knew that the city did not accumulate enough and it was impossible to open it for a long time.

As long as the protective magic circle is removed, he can find a loophole and sneak into the city.

By then, his pets will definitely turn the people in the entire city into food, and he is looking forward to that day.

Osman turned around, and the alchemy beast followed him quietly.

"Quack," a crow's cry spread in the silent night sky.

Fukin spread his wings and flew quickly to Solent Street.

"You said you found the enemy?"

Eliza didn't understand bird language, she guessed and finally talked to the crow.

"Quack," Fukin encouraged the other party.

"Are you sure you can see clearly that it is the fifth-level extraordinary person that Klauen asked us to be vigilant about?"

"Quack," the crow nodded again in affirmation.

There really was a potential enemy coming to the door, which made Eliza's heart even tighter.

The further one goes on the path of the extraordinary, the greater the gap between the levels, and the less likely it is to challenge across levels.

"William, prepare the car, I want to find Fanny and Sir Nick."

She wanted to pass the message on, let everyone be vigilant, spread the message in Hammers, and seek help from the church is the fastest way.
