Release that Witch Chapter 891: Wound of the monastery
"I'm not Pope, His Excellency the Pope has already been" Isabella just wanted to deny it, but was stopped by Agatha's shoulder shot.
"The task is important, Your Majesty will not mind."
The seemingly unrelated words, Isabella instantly understood the meaning of the other party, she also knew that this method was more convenient, but for the king who valued power, this was really a dangerous signal.
Recalling what she saw and heard in Neverwinter City, she hesitated for a moment and then accepted her resignation, "Save you What does it mean? Where are Judgement Warrior and God's Officer?"
"They ran!"
"No, some people are called away by Holy City!"
"We committed a crime and killed God's Officer ..."
"That's not her fault!"
"No food, no clothes ... No supplies for two months, have we been abandoned?"
"Say something stupid, isn't Your Excellency here!"
A loud answer sound was heard at the scene.
"Be quiet!" Isabella said impatiently. "Someone said then it will be alright." She scanned the crowd and reached out to the leading nun, "Come on first, stand up and talk."
"Yes, Your Excellency." The nun first touched the ground respectfully before climbing up from the ground. "It was more than a month ago that I received the message of Hermes for the last time ..."
After one hour, Isabella finally got a general understanding of what happened here.
Since the war of Cold Wind Ridge, the supply of monasteries has deteriorated. At first, the amount of food has shrunk. Later, the number of times has halved. Because the three courtyards are all under closed management, the news comes from outside, and the order is fairly stable. The clerics and Judgement Warrior in the ward encouraged everyone to pray diligently and get through this difficult situation with a strong attitude, and said that situation will soon turn around.
But this is not the case.
The so-called last news of the other party is that Church transferred all Judgement Army and God's Officer a month and a half ago.
The nuns don't know what kind of order they received, they only know that those who have not been transferred away from the hall face death as if they lost their souls.
Then the monastery became a disaster.
According to the principle of automatic replacement, they claimed to be the new God's Officer, but they no longer lead everyone to pray, and they are not willing to follow the shrinking and dieting system established by their predecessors. Not only did they enjoy the few grains stored in the warehouse without restraint, they also further deprived the orphans' food.
When the nuns went to negotiate, they learned that the sky was falling apart, that is, the collapse of the Hermes Cathedral.
Church has arrived.
In order to fight against the enemy, the senior management decided to abandon the old Holy City and transfer all the officers to the plateau. The last order left to the monastery was to resist the invading enemies on their own and dedicate their lives to gods until the last moment.
Although these changes sound incredible, the closure of the passageway to the Church of Reflection seems to verify their claims.
Faced with this bad news, the nuns also split into two factions, some were completely disappointed, joining had the "new God's Officer faction", and others were hesitant to know what to do. According to the leading nuns, Church was so Powerful, powerful enough that they hardly need to think, and have never considered their own destiny ... Because of this, the news has almost completely led them into chaos, as if the world as they had known it suddenly collapsed.
It's the new God's Officers who make this situation worse.
They were originally low-level believers. They are only slightly higher in the monastery than nuns. They are usually responsible for assisting the administrator to manage the affairs in the courtyard. There are almost no people who may be truly capable of promotion and will not be assigned here. . Now that I have tasted the sweetness of power and lost the supervision above, it is naturally out of control.
For example, the "blessings" of choirs and shrines.
In fact, this kind of thing is a ban in itself, but the management of the monastery by Holy City is not strict, so big people with special hobbies often come here to have fun, which is not a secret in the compound. Until the Exceed escape event was triggered, Church strengthened supervision in this regard.
However, they have no concerns now.
"Blessings" forced obedience from pull people alone to the entire class, and even evolved into a body-for-food transaction. This not only completely violated the Church's decree, but also pushed the hesitant nun to the orphan side.
Although these girls of all ages were scoured from Four Great Kingdoms, teaching them literacy, reading books and chanting carols is not without feelings over time. Coupled with the order given by Church, the nuns began to resist the instructions of the new God's Officer and secretly took out the grain in the warehouse and distributed it to the hungry children.
But no matter how they shrink and diet, impossible turns out food out of thin air. Grain in the warehouse is becoming scarce. God's Officer also noticed the "rebellion" of the nuns. The conflict erupted during the smuggling of food. They caught and executed two nuns on the spot. This move was intended to deter everyone but inspired the rest. The nun's uneasiness. After a series of planning and series, the leader launched a counterattack one night. The God's Officer, who was addicted to the enjoyment, was caught off guard, and the orphan coalition that was absolutely dominated by the number of people joined together in one fell swoop.
Not only that, the leader also contacted two other monasteries through the tunnel, and solved the ugly Christians in the same way.
Just when everyone tried to send a representative to find a way to cross the high wall of the compound and report the plight of this place to Hermes, the army of Kingdom of Dawn appeared on the border of the old Holy City.
Now that you have been abandoned, there is no other way but to resist yourself. Everyone knows that once the enemy captures the monastery, even if they do not resist, the end will not be better, so the scene that Isabella saw first.
...
After listening to the nun's statement, Isabella raised huge doubts in his heart.
She also heard about the bad habits in the monastery. As for those who are incompetent and quickly corrupt after being empowered, it is no surprise that she was surprised by the order announced by Church.
To fight against the enemy? If that's the case, they will impossible In the abandoned outer wall situation Ignore the monitoring of the mountain trails. What is the difference between this approach and the first line of defense?
Even if you step back 10,000 steps, Holy City is really short of manpower to the extent that even the ladder in the cloud cannot take care of it, impossible also said "abandon the old Holy City".
Because most people don't know the secret of Church's, but she knows clearly whether the new Holy City on the plateau or the old city at the foot of the mountain is not the core of Church's. There is only one true core of Church, that is, the secret mechanism buried deep underground, whether it is the mining of God stone, the research of magic stone Sigil, or the God Punishment Army transformation ceremony, all in this secret institution built 400 years ago ongoing.
In the old Holy City, there were secret passage leading to the secret temple, and even the main exit location. How could such a position of important be so easily abandoned?
This command is full of loopholes, lie!
