“…”

Looking at the girl squatting on the ground with her head in her hands, Fang Zheng didn't know what to say for a moment. He thought about it for a while, and finally sighed helplessly and reached out his hand. After all, he couldn't just watch her squatting on the ground like this.

"Are you okay?"

"ah……"

Hearing Fang Zheng's voice, the girl trembled again, and then she looked cautiously at the hand that Fang Zheng extended. After hesitating for a moment, she tremblingly reached out her hand to hold the other person's, and then was pulled up by Fang Zheng.

"Fei, I'm very sorry to have embarrassed you..."

"No, nothing..."

"Well, then... please wait a moment..."

After taking a deep breath, the girl put on her hood again, which seemed to relax her nervous mood. She came to the bookshelf again, took out a heavy book and spread it on the table. She picked up the feather pen next to her and drew something on the crystal ball. Then Fang Zheng saw a wonderful blue power emerge from the crystal ball, and then fell into the book under the guidance of the feather pen in the girl's hand. Then a strange and mysterious symbol appeared on the originally blank paper. Its shape is a cross star, with a circle on the outermost edge, and a circle of strange characters that look similar to oracle bone script. But Fang Zheng couldn't understand what was written on it. He learned from his memory that this was the so-called "language of the stars" in this world. It is rumored that when the goddess of order created the world, in order to stabilize the world, she gave each star their own exclusive meaning, but this language can only be interpreted by gods.

"The desolate land... the reappearing star..."

The girl whispered to herself, and even Fang Zheng didn't understand what she was saying. But soon she closed the big book in her hand. Then she took out a silver badge from the drawer and placed it in front of her. She raised the feather pen again and tapped the crystal ball. Soon, another similar force was drawn out from it and then sucked into the silver badge. Then, the crystal ball in front of the girl dimmed again.

"Okay, sir, please keep this badge. It has your star pattern."

Maybe it was because her true identity was exposed, but the girl's voice was no longer the low voice she pretended to be, but a very pleasant voice. However, Fang Zheng understood why she pretended to be like that. The girl's original voice was really not intimidating at all. No matter how you listened to it, it sounded like a soft plea.

Although such a voice combined with the girl's cute appearance makes her seem like the perfect candidate for cuteness, as a government worker, her appearance is obviously not enough to calm the situation.

"Thanks."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng took the badge, then he closed his eyes and injected his power into the badge. Soon, a dark starry sky appeared in front of Fang Zheng's eyes, with a large number of stars shining in it, and the star in the center was the most dazzling one.

This is my destiny star, but...

Fang Zheng compared the star pattern that originally belonged to Williams in his memory, and then nodded with satisfaction. Although he was not an astrologer and could not read star maps at all, Fang Zheng could still do it if he simply compared the differences between the two star maps. Obviously, the two stars were in completely different positions. At least in Fang Zheng's opinion, there was nothing similar between the two.

Then, we can continue.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng smiled slightly, put away the badge, and then he looked at the girl in front of him again.

"Miss, I have a small request."

"What request?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, the girl tilted her head curiously, then she seemed to realize something and waved her hand hurriedly.

"Well, the teacher said I can't just go out and have dinner with strange men..."

“…”

Although Fang Zheng really wanted to tell Miss that she was overthinking, he changed his mind and thought that if he didn't have all these troubles, he might have invited her to dinner or something... But forget it, let's talk about this later.

"It's like this..."

Fang Zheng coughed and put these weird thoughts behind him.

"I want to go to the temple and hope you can issue a letter for me."

"The Temple? The letter?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, the girl was stunned for a moment, and then she reacted.

"Sir, are you planning to join the Temple?"

"Yes."

Hearing this, Fang Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that although this young lady looked confused, she was still a normal person after all. Ordinary people definitely did not need any letters to enter the temple to pray, and Fang Zheng went to the temple not to pray for forgiveness from the goddess of order or to visit scenic spots. It literally meant that he wanted to join the temple.

Of course, any strict religious organization has its own strict procedures for recruiting people, and a country like the Holy Church, where politics and religion are combined, is no exception. If an outsider like Fang Zheng wants to join the Temple, the first thing he needs to do is to apply to become a trainee guardian knight of the Temple.

Don't think this is a good title. Although the title of knight is indeed very noble, in fact, to put it bluntly, what the apprentice guardian knights do is similar to the intellectuals in Fang Zheng's previous world who went to the countryside. They have to shoulder the sacred mission, go to the most difficult and poorest places, and fight against evil to protect the people. At the same time, their enemies are also diverse, including local natives such as jackals and goblins, as well as mountain bandits and robbers who are rampant, not to mention the cultists, undead, and various chaos monsters that are everywhere like rats.

Of course, danger is also an opportunity. If those apprentice guardian knights can come back alive and successfully complete their mission, they will be recognized as knights by the temple. And if these people can make great contributions in the process, they may even be promoted to Grand Knight or even Knight Commander, and have their own territory and army.

For the children of aristocrats, even if they have not accomplished any great merits, as long as they have not committed any unforgivable mistakes in the process, it is equivalent to coating their qualifications with a layer of luxurious gold, which is also quite beneficial for their future promotions.

But generally speaking, only the lower-class nobles and those descendants of small nobles would choose this path. After all, "going to the mountains and the countryside" is a difficult process. Those guys who can't sleep without beautiful women and warm beds will not be able to adapt to the dangerous life in the wilderness.

Fang Zheng watched the girl in front of him pick up a piece of paper and write something on it. Then she held up the huge ivory seal next to her with both hands, stamped it with some effort, sealed it, and handed it over.

"Please keep it, sir."

"Thank you, miss."

Fang Zheng reached out his hand, took the letter into his arms, and then smiled at the girl in front of him.

"If you have time, let's have dinner together sometime."

After saying this, Fang Zheng turned around and left with a smile without waiting for the girl's answer.

The most dangerous place is the safest place.

When Fang Zheng left the City Hall and entered the temple without any hindrance, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this sentence is truly an eternal truth.

Compared to the empty city hall, the security of the temple was much stricter. Although there was not a guard every three steps and a sentry every five steps, you could still see many fully armed temple warriors standing guard and patrolling. Even so, they still didn't pay any attention to Fang Zheng with their spears and swords in hand. They were as focused as stone statues. Perhaps these people themselves didn't think that the cultists wanted by the temple would walk into this sanctuary with open arms.

It seems that no matter which world they are in, the common characteristics of intelligent creatures are the same.

"I'm from the Silver Principality."

Fang Zheng found a bishop of the temple, briefly explained his purpose, and handed over the letter he had received from the girl.

"I come here to seek the guidance and enlightenment of order."

"I see."

The bishop was an old man with white hair and beard. It was obviously not the first time for him to receive a nobleman like Fang Zheng. The old bishop first opened the letter and read it carefully, then observed the seal and signature, and then nodded to Fang Zheng calmly.

"Come with me, child."

After saying this, the old man turned and walked towards the inner courtyard, while Fang Zheng followed him silently. The two of them walked through the porch and entered the inner courtyard. Then the old man stopped in front of a holy emblem made of a circular marble slab. He turned his head and looked at Fang Zheng.

"Stand up, young man."

"OK."

Fang Zheng's hand gently pressed the hilt of the sword, and he even felt the cold sweat on his palm. This was the last step, and the most important one. He had made sufficient preparations to face this test.

He knew what it was, everyone on the continent knew it, and the cultists knew it best.

Everyone is responsible for everything they do, and their actions will extend to the top of the line of fate, just as the ink recorded on the parchment will leave its own handwriting. No one can reverse what has happened, and the dust of history cannot cover up all the truth.

Order lasts forever.

Fang Zheng knew very well that as long as he stood on this platform, the light of order would begin to search, just like anti-virus software, it would determine whether it was a virus - the enemy of order.

Or rather, is it those damned chaos cultists?

And all of this is determined by Fang Zheng's Soul Star.

Although Fang Zheng guaranteed that he was definitely not a cultist, who knew how accurate this thing was?

You know, even antivirus software may mistakenly kill system files.

Now I just hope that this firewall can be more accurate - at least better than the Kaba driver.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng took a deep breath and then walked onto the platform.

The next moment, white light descended from the sky and enveloped his body.
