Release that Witch Chapter 147: envoy group
Alicia did not expect that one day they could become a member of the envoy group.
After all Church send envoy During the regiment, the team members have always been elite warriors, not only cultural and military, but also their appearance Church's face. Her fighting skills and Holy Church Etiquette is very self-confident, but when it comes to appearance ... A woman who runs around the line all year long, holding a big sword and waving around all day, can see where it is? Thinking of this, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Listen to God's Officer Mira, they will go to Western Region small town of Kingdom of Greycastle to negotiate a blasphemy incident involving witch of the kingship. In addition to the God's Officer led by the team, the ambassador group was composed of ten Judgement Armys, one of whom was a cold noodle Captain with a side edge on the Hermes defense line.
But now it seems that even if he is not in battle, he is still holding a cold face. Just standing next to him, Alicia will feel that the temperature has dropped a lot.
The opposite is true for God's Officer Mira. She is over forty years old and has smart eyes. She always laughs and talks about the Church's anecdote, she is knowledgeable, and she is enthusiastic without losing her grace. Even in front of Archbishop, she still has her style. Alicia has heard more than once that she is likely to be the candidate for the next bishop.
What surprises the female warrior is that as a civilian officer, the riding of Mira is not much worse than other Judgement Armys. For the past two days, she has been leading the team from the forest to the mountain path. Allows horses to maintain speed while reducing physical exertion. This skill can only be mastered by Judgement Army who has been riding for a long time.
"Aren't we heading south?" Someone in the team asked after leaving Hermes and entering Kingdom of Greycastle.
"No, Border Town is too far away from us. I wouldn't want my **** to be worn and flowered if I walked on land." Mira waved, "Let's go east and go to Quiet Valley Town, where there is a river leading to Scarlet Water City. Scarlet Water City then Longsong Stronghold is fast. "
"When were you joining Church's?" Alicia asked curiously, "Not only do I know the various interesting stories of Holy City, but also the worldly world."
"Twelve years ago, I was exactly thirty years old at that time." Mira replied.
"It's so late," she was surprised. "As far as I know, the older you get, the harder it is to understand the teachings of gods. You have been promoted from a believer to God's Officer in just ten years. It's incredible."
"Yeah," Mira smiled, "This is the fascination of Church's. I, originally a daughter of a merchant, followed my father in Four Great Kingdoms, and brought ordinary goods in some places to another place, the price It will be several times worse. For example, the emerald green coral of Sea Wind Region was purchased from the local fishermen, and there were only two or thirty silver royals in one plant. When it was put into the water tank and brought to the Kingdom of Eternal Winter palace, it could be exchanged for one gold royal. Good condition, branches The shape is uniform, and it can even sell more than five pieces. I often think, why are there two different types of prices if it is the same item? "
"Because ... are things rare or expensive?" Alicia said.
"I thought so at the beginning." God's Officer nodded. "But something happened later changed my view. Kingdom Capital, a noble, secretly hid a witch that can change the temperature. He came up with various methods. Finally, he can raise corals from Sea Wind Region in the cold Eternal Winter Kingdom Capital. He transformed the basement in the yard into a huge pool with a skylight at the top, which can be harvested about once a year. Many. And this long business road, my father can only run once a year. So there are more emerald corals in the market, he not only sold to the Royal Palace, but also to those big noble. If it is rare to be expensive Then, the price of emerald coral should continue to fall. "
"But only two years later, the Royal Palace refused to accept those low-priced emerald corals, thinking they were all counterfeits. The coral sold by my father not only did not reduce the price, but doubled. As for the noble that hid witch , Was taken out by Church, tied to a torture rack and burned to death under cover and witch. But I know that the corals he keeps are not counterfeits and are no different from the emerald corals transported by my father.
"It is not wrong to think that things are rare. There are many reasons to determine the price of goods. This is just the simplest example. -- because the Eternal Winter palace uses emerald coral as a symbol of luxury. Value. When more emerald corals appeared, they impacted the royal regulations, so the queen also celebrated the execution the same day. Do you think these goods don't look like us on earth? "
"Like ... what?" Alicia didn't return.
"Like the people and children under the kingship." Mira said one word at a time, "We have been given a price since we were born, and this price is not a reflection of our true value. We are just like this emerald coral, obviously , Some are cheap, while others are unattainable. "
"Unreachable ... you mean noble."
"noble is the coral of the Eternal Winter palace," God's Officer laughed. "They were not different from us when they were born. They have a both hands, a pair of feet, a pair of eyes and a mouth. However, they are artificially regulated at the highest Value, this inequality does not depend on their own ability, but from the rule of kingship. So I joining Church, at least in the new Holy City Hermes, origin will not limit your value. If we can turn the entire continent into Church's In the end, Holy City, the so-called gods country, is nothing more than this. "
"You're so good!" Alicia nodded again and again, excited in his heart. As if it were really possible to build an above-ground Kingdom of God like Mira, the people were born regardless of descent, and there were no pariahs and slaves. What a wonderful scene.
"Kingdom of God? Huh ... how many more people do they want to become cold-blooded monsters?" The cold face Judgement Army Captain shook the reins and took a step forward. "Master God's Officer, how much do you know about God Punishment Army?"
"Hey, you --" Alicia just wanted to pay attention to his politeness, but was stopped by Mira before he could say.
"God Punishment Army is the most powerful warrior of Church. They are transformed from Judgement Army with strong faith, willingness and dedication, and courage."
"The most powerful and good, Judgement Army conversion is also good, but they are not transformed into soldiers, but a group of monsters without emotion!" He left this sentence coldly, and rushed to the front of the team Already.
"It's rude!" Alicia said resentfully. When Hermes saw him, he still felt that he was in danger, with the calmness of a general and the bravery of a soldier. How could he become such a person now? ?
"It doesn't matter, he just feels restless." Mira shook his head. "In order to build the ground Kingdom of God, there will inevitably be setbacks and sacrifices ... but, at least we are willing."
When the group arrived in the next town, it was too late. God's Officer took the envoy group to the church to rest. Everyone went back to their room to sleep after eating, but Alicia followed the Judgement Army Captain and stopped him in the aisle.
"Master Mira is our leader. Do you do that is What does it mean? Have you forgotten the rules and regulations of Church's?"
"Your name is Alicia, isn't it?" he said after a moment of silence.
"Yes, I am the same as you now, my name is Judgement Army Captain. I asked your name back in Months of Demons, but you didn't say anything, can you tell me the name now?"
"Abrams," he said blankly, "why do I do that ... Do you have a brother or sister?"
"No." Alicia suddenly remembered, he once said that his brother was a God Punishment Army.
"I have. He grew up with me at Church, we know each other as if they were one person. Later, he took the initiative to accept the God Punishment Army conversion, and I have never seen him again. The -- judge told me His transformation was very successful. Now that he has gone out to perform special tasks of Church's, I am really happy for him. "He paused," Until one day, I saw him again in the cathedral, I shouted his name, on Qian wanted to hug him, but you guessed what I saw? ”Abrams's face showed a bit of pain.“ A stranger. He just walked past me as if he hadn't seen me at all. Staring straight ahead, the action is not like humans at all. "
"..." There was a chill behind Alicia. She wanted to shout out that the other party was lying, but Zhang could not say a word.
"God Punishment Army is deprived of human feelings, but it is a moving dead thing." He pushed away Alicia, who was standing in place, and walked towards his room without looking back.
