Chapter 720 Drive the temple out of the north
(PS: I bowed to thank the book friend for the reward of "Shadow Sniper". In addition, the raccoon has some problems with his recent condition, and it seems that he has become lazy... Cough cough, you have to change, you must change it. Give the raccoon two days to advance the update time so that you can not wait that long.)
Three days later, in the afternoon, Shanxi City, slums.
Just as there must be shadows under the sun, as a northern holy city, Shanxi City is almost not weaker than any northern city in terms of external image or commercial conditions. However, this cannot conceal its stubborn disease of various cities, that is, the existence of slums.
Some people are rich and some are poor and some are crazy - the reason is that simple, whether to accept or not is another matter!
At this time, a corner of the slum was a dilapidated building.
As far as you see, the outer walls of the small building are filled with holes of all sizes and air leakage everywhere, which seems to be crumbling. I am afraid that even homeless people will not choose to live in this dangerous place where they cannot shelter from the wind or rain.
But now there is a person who is staying on the second floor of this small building, half leaning on the damaged wall, and throwing a few balls of blood stained cotton on the ground beside him, with a strong medicinal smell.
His face was slightly drooping, covered with cold sweat and dust. He couldn't see the specific face of this person, but looking at the gray and white look, he could tell that his situation was in a mess.
However, the person involved seemed to be unaware of it. He suddenly turned his head, bit the gray cloth strip with white teeth, and tied the knot with a very stable right hand, forcibly suppressing the wound on the left arm that was constantly bleeding!
"Hu..." After dealing with the injury, the man raised his head and let out a gentle breath, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and his expression was a little relaxed. After that, he did not rest and recuperate immediately, but stood up with a gun. His curves were revealed, his long legs were seductive, and he looked like a woman. He walked a few steps back and forth, gathering the blood-stained cotton balls, strips of cloth, etc. on the ground, causing fire to burn.
Hesitate... The flame suddenly jumped up. The blood-stained cotton ball burned very fast, but it instantly turned into black and gray. However, the cloth strips mixed with it were still burning in the flames, twisting and struggling.
The woman did not retreat, and just stared at the fire quietly, her face dark and she was stunned. This state lasted for about a few seconds. Suddenly,
The woman seemed to notice something, and when she pursed her lips, her expression disappeared in an instant, and her spear was slightly raised. Her awe-inspiring fighting spirit soared wildly!
In an instant, a whirlwind seemed to slip into the second floor. The burning fire on the ground quickly retreated, dust and ashes scattered, and sparks flew in the sky. The scene was magnificent and magnificent. At this moment,
"Cough cough..." A few reminders of coughing sounded downstairs. Then a gentle voice came slowly, "It's me, Owens."
After saying that, the murderous atmosphere on the second floor disappeared in an instant, as if it had never appeared before. At this time, Owens, dressed in a civilian dress, walked out of the swaying stairs, turned his eyes, was slightly stunned, and then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Why do you have to? You know that Shanxi City is different from other places, come here to make things difficult for the temple... Alas. It's very dangerous!"
The woman leaned halfway back on the wall, looking calm: "It's because this place is different from other places."
"Uh... OK." Owens was stunned when he heard this, and then he couldn't help but smile bitterly and nodded in agreement. As a northern holy city, Shanxi City is undoubtedly the largest number of believers here. And this excellent place is indeed suitable to "make trouble" the temple!
Speaking of this, there is no need to doubt that this woman is naturally Xia Wei'an.
Since she decided to stand up and take the initiative to expose the dark stories of the temple, Xia Wei'an traveled thousands of miles and traveled among countless towns, and spared no effort. The impact of this was undoubtedly huge. No matter how the temple promoted Xia Wei'an to have fallen into an evil heresy, her previous glory and reputation were placed there. In this way, it would naturally cause a big wave among the believers!
Some believe it, and some slander it... But whether you believe it or not, these countless controversies are enough to make the temple frustrated and completely fall into a passive state.
In this way, the temple naturally would not let Xia Wei'an go. After tearing the face apart, in just a few days, several waves of pursuit teams rushed over and tried to kill Xia Wei'an!
I believe that if Xia Weian had not been very familiar with the methods of chasing the temple, and with the perfect disguise that Tang En had given him unintentionally, Xia Weian would have already been carrying countless infamous and returned to the embrace of the God of Light.
...
"The healing magic cannot be used, it will be detected... Take it, this is the injury medicine I bought secretly, it is all high-end goods, I have saved up a few years of savings... Well, you have revealed your whereabouts here today, I am afraid that a master will chase you tonight. I will arrange for you to go out of the city later... Now, my friend, I have done my best. So if you are caught, don't give me it..."
As he talked, he handed over bottles and jars. Owens' usual gentle smile was hanging on the corner of his mouth, shrugging and making jokes, which quickly eased the slightly dull atmosphere here.
After rebanding the wound, Xia Weian pursed her lips, hid her pretentious gratitude, and asked directly: "Is there any news from the Puritans?"
"Please, the Puritan forces are always there. Once you go back and forth, how can there be news so soon?" Shaking his head, Owens spread his hands and said, "And who doesn't know that I'm closest to you in the temple. Almost everyone is monitoring me in every move now... Tsk tsk, fortunately, no one has reported the release of water in the City of Holy Light before, otherwise I, a traitor, would have no future."
Xia Wei'an frowned slightly when she heard this: "Then are you here today?"
"Uh... Is it okay? I'm at least risking the danger of a lifetime and death to deliver medicine to you. Are you still quite reluctant now?" After pausing, looking at Xia Wei'an's frowning increasingly tightening, Owens's eyelids twitched and quickly put away his aggrieved expression, "Okay, okay, I'm here this time to tell you a big news... Alas, the temple is going to fall this time!"
"kindness?"
"You have been obsessed with chasing these days, so you don't know what happened... Well, in more than ten towns in the north, believers rioted collectively, shouting slogans to drive the temple out of the north, completely destroying the church in the city!"
Xia Wei'an was shocked when she heard this and shouted: "What! How is it possible?"
As mentioned before, although believers have great opinions about the clergy, they still have high respect for the faith of the God of Light and the solemn church. When Tang En and Sha Weian made a big fuss in the Northern Temple General Assembly, many believers stood on the periphery. But even if they saw all kinds of ominous signs, no one overcame the rules and broke in without authorization, this is a clear proof!
It is precisely because of this that although the Temple of Light is now at the forefront of the storm and is shaking, their foundation has not been destroyed much. They are still exuding an inviolable power and are still making small moves secretly. For example, the large-scale pursuit of Xia Wei'an, such as taking time to attack Tang En's killer organization...
"I also want to say that it is impossible, but now the facts are in front of me." Owens sighed bitterly after spreading his hands. "The Temple is blocking the news in this regard, but how can this news be blocked? Alas... this is the fuse. The Temple is sad!"
The truth is this. If there are no cases on the table, even if believers are disappointed with the temple, they will not think about overthrowing the solemn church beside them. But once this opening is opened, it will inevitably cause a chain reaction, like a flood in the drainage gate, and the consequences will be unimaginable!
What is more important is the identity of believers and the positioning of the temple!
You should know that the reason why the Temple of Light has the great power that has stood on the continent for thousands of years without falling. It is also the unconditional support of the majority of believers. This is also the foundation of the temple. But it is precisely this solid foundation that can also detonate and destroy everything!
A very simple truth. The temple can use thunder means to suppress the enemies that provoke themselves! But do they dare to use the same means to the majority of believers? Obviously, unless the temple wants to be destroyed, it will definitely not dare.
Therefore, this is a battle that is destined to be passively beaten. It is also the so-called "water can carry a boat and can also overturn it"!
And when it really comes to that time, ‘Punish the Temple from the North’ would not be just a slogan…
And that's the case, "You don't know what chaos is going on outside now. Shanxi City is fine, and you haven't received this news yet. But after going north for 300 miles, the towns there are already messy. In just two or three days, churches in the city were destroyed one after another. And... Well, this matter cannot be mentioned on the table. In the conflict, hundreds of clergy have been killed and many believers have been killed or injured. This matter is absolutely impossible to be good now..."
"Wait!" After a moment of stammering, Xia Wei'an frowned and suddenly frowned: "Two or three days? Are you sure that it's only two or three days, and there's such a loud momentum?"
"Haha, have you found it?" As if he had expected this question, Owens nodded, "That's right, it's certainly abnormal for the believers of more than a dozen cities to make an appointment within two or three days to riot at the same time."
He paused, shook his head and sighed, "There is a master behind him who is controlling it. What a good method!"
"Who is it?"
"Ha, you know this person, our old acquaintance."
Looking at Owens' complex expression of a speechless smile, Xia Wei'an suddenly moved her heart and blurted out: "Tang En?"
"Yeah." Owens simply nodded, then shook his head again, with a few self-deprecating sneering on his lips, "You may not know that the Zachley we always saw in the temple that day was actually the pretended by Don Eun. Haha, I used to boast about being delicate and observant, but I didn't expect that he appeared in front of me, but I couldn't see it. It was so embarrassing!"
Xia Wei'an was also stunned when she heard this. She realized that Zachley seemed to have some problems, but that was just intuition and didn't care. She never thought that this feeling was real...
After sighing with some frustration, Owens continued: "According to the two warning light columns at that time, Tang En stole two things in the temple. One was the demon skull, and the other I later inquired about it, which should be the transaction record between the temple and the Bounty Hunter Guild. Well, that is, the evidence of the temple that suddenly appeared a few days ago."
"So that's it... Humph, okay, the temple did this by itself!" With a snorting, Xia Weian frowned and asked, "But what is the direct relationship between him inciting believers to make trouble?"
"After listening to me... I just said that he was a master, and this is sincere admiration! Do you know that while pretending to be Zachley, he sent someone to secretly swallow the branch base of the Bounty Hunter Guild? Tsk tsk, this hand is beautiful, others wipe their mouths and leave after eating, and he even took away his job."
After smacking his lips, Owens' admiration was not like a fake, but he seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Tang En's indecent eating behavior. However, Xia Wei'an, who was beside him, raised an eyebrow, with a clear smile in his eyes, and thought that this was really the style of that guy...
But what Xia Wei'an herself didn't realize was that her senses towards Tang En's enemy were gradually changing, from wanting to being able to kill with one shot before, to now no longer deliberately resisting...
"The temple only learned about this situation a few days ago. Bishop Byron and others were furious when they learned about it. However, at that time, the matter of the Bounty Hunter Guild had been exposed, and they did not dare to take it back. But at the same time, they were not willing to be taken away by Tang En. So they decided to send a team to attack and exhale..."
"Silly!" Hearing this, Xia Wei'an couldn't help but curse. You know, the temple is still too busy to take care of itself, but just to exasperate the air, he made such a move that is likely to anger the other party. Isn't this stupidity?
Owens nodded in agreement: "Who said no? But there are indeed many experts in this team. Well, the leader of the team is Razel's Grand Knight, and Carl..."
"Carl? Which Carl?" Xia Weian was stunned when she heard this and asked subconsciously.
"Who else can it be? The bloody butcher you brutally slaughtered several villages two years ago. You tracked for more than half a month before finally capturing - Carl!"
"Is it really him?" Xia Wei'an's face suddenly became gloomy, "Hasn't he been locked in the General Prison waiting for trial?"
He shrugged, "I thought it was true before, but recently when I was collecting the temple's black materials, I found that Carl had come out a year ago. Alas... I probably thought he was good at strength, and it was useful. Someone arranged for him to join the assassination team of the Bounty Hunter Guild to deal with the things that the temple was not easy to come forward... Well, you know."
Bang! He slammed the ground with a sudden punch, causing the dangerous building to tremble. Xia Wei'an bit her lips tightly, and the cold light appeared in her eyes: "Okay! OK! OK! Such a temple, it's better to fall!"
This is naturally an angry voice, but it can also be seen that Xia Wei's anger and strong disappointment towards the temple's actions!
After waved his hand, Owens smiled sarcastically: "Haha, don't worry, retribution is coming... Such a powerful team will attack a bounty hunter guild that has changed hands. In fact, they did, but this attracted Tang En's anger!"
He paused and raised his index finger, "One night, the heads of the bishops of ten churches fell to the ground! The next day, the believer riot began... Haha, although I was very curious about what method Tang En used to incite believers so efficiently. But what I want to know more now is what expression would the big figures know about the current uncontrollable scene just because they had to exhale before? Haha..."
Encourage the believers? Listening to Owens' happy laughter, Xia Wei'an felt in her heart, and she felt as if she had grabbed some information, but she couldn't remember it for a moment... Finally, she shook her head and temporarily suppressed the feeling. The corners of her mouth slightly turned up, and there was also a sarcastic smile: "Oh, that must be quite exciting, I'm looking forward to it!"
He paused for a moment, and when Owens laughed a little weaker, he asked, "By the way, where is that temple team now?"
"Yeah?" He stopped smiling, Owens turned to look in surprise, "Why, do you want to catch that Carl again?"
"Not bad. But this time I will not send him to the judges again, but will directly send him to the believers as evidence!"
"Good idea...but there is Razel, who is ahead of you in the ranking of the Knights." With his eyebrows raised, Owens seemed to think of something, and asked with a gossip, "I heard a rumor. Razel had fought with you privately last year... Well, tell me who won? I will tell you where they are now? How about it, be fair." (PS: Chapter 691 mentioned.)
There are twelve knight masters in the Temple of Light, which compete every three years, and rank the rankings based on their strength.
If it were in the past, regardless of whether the private competition won or not, Xia Wei'an would not have discussed this matter behind the scenes. However, she has now become a traitor in the temple, so she naturally has a lot of views on this.
He glared at Owens, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Razel's talent is outstanding, but his mood is not open enough, and his pattern in the martial arts path is also slightly narrow. If he can study the teachings of the temple for three years, his strength will definitely reach a new level."
There was no clear statement, but Owens could naturally understand the meaning and laughed: "Ha, just say that he was narrow-minded and his martial arts realm was also stagnant. Tsk tsk, it seems you won."
Xia Wei'an did not deny it, but frowned and said impatiently: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, tell me the address."
"It's useless to tell you... Uh, I'm not teasing you. They're roughly near Moss City, but it's definitely too late for you to go now."
He spread his hands and looked at Xia Wei'an's puzzled gaze. Owens showed a strange expression and explained, "I have been paying attention to the riots of believers. Around this morning, this matter suddenly stopped. Well, you also know Tang En. This is definitely not a person who gave up halfway. So what would happen to make him willingly let go of this great situation temporarily?"
Ask and answer, "Don't you have to guess! This guy Razel is lucky and was temporarily transferred back. But Carl is definitely dead. The difference depends on Tang En's mood, and the question of killing him a few times..."
Chapter completed!
