Chapter 504 Loren doesn't want to wear more clothes because of the cold weather
In the Southern Wantina Territory, the magic rail train shuttles across the vast plains. The view on both sides is wide, and the grass, flowers, and lakes appear even deeper and quieter in the whistling sound of the train.
Inside the carriage, the clock hands pointed to a little after five o'clock, the warm yellow sunlight danced on the solid wood decoration, and the passengers either sat quietly or talked in low voices.
In an inconspicuous corner, four clergymen sat on both sides of a table.
"The customs of the people in Nanwantina have always been—"
Loren was talking to three other priests who looked younger, but he stopped talking halfway through the sentence as if he remembered someone.
In addition to Loren, there are three other clergy members in the priest investigation team heading from Ikerit to Nanvantina. Among them, the sentinel priests with scout functions often act alone, while the guardian knights and healing priests are in groups of two.
These three people can be considered his students, and he often takes them with him when he goes on missions to train with them.
Although Loren knew that flying to Nanwantina directly with magic was many times faster than taking a car, and he also had permission to use high-speed movement magic within the country, generally speaking, unless there were special circumstances, these eighth-level strongmen would not use this method to travel.
"Anyway, be careful in the South Wantina Territory. The cardinal from the Northern Continent might pass by you, or even talk to you, and you wouldn't notice it at all."
Loren reminded.
Their main purpose of going to Nanwantina this time was to prepare in advance for the conspiracy brought about by the new cardinal.
Of course, we have also received a commission from the United Parliament of the Kingdom, hoping that the Church of the Goddess of Destiny can investigate clues to the recent unknown phenomena on the border between the Kingdom of Hutton and the Cretan Empire.
There have been strange rumors about the Kreming Empire in the past two months, causing dozens of countries, large and small, in the United Parliament of the Southern Continent Kingdom to feel uneasy.
As the true behemoth and overlord of the southern continent, the Kreming Empire is not something that any kingdom can contend with.
And each of the twelve military gods of the empire is an opponent that even Loren would find extremely troublesome.
Once the war is unleashed, all the kings, nobles and common people of any country will face a real catastrophe.
"Haha, I want to laugh when I talk about the Northern Continent. I wonder what evidence the Dimension Bishop produced to convince the Destruction Bishop that Mr. Loren is not in the Southern Continent."
The healing priest, who looked like an innocent girl wearing a white priest robe, leaned back in her chair, not feeling Loren's severity at all, and said with a giggle.
Whenever she recalled the day when she saw Loren appear with a lot of black lines on his head, scaring the Archpriests of Destruction to the point that they doubted their lives, she felt that Mr. Loren had the aura of a villain behind the scenes, so handsome.
"It really has nothing to do with me. I was confused that day as well. The church was suddenly attacked, which made me very angry."
Loren's expression seemed to be sighing, and he answered with extreme helplessness.
The most outrageous rumor now is that the Protoss Empire built a monument for him in the Imperial Square, and the peace talks between the Kingdom of Aethertalan and the Protoss Empire were named "The Agreement to Respect Lorenclantel". After hearing about Loren's deeds, the northern countries of the northern continent also began to revere him and called him the god who brought the wind of peace.
Why would the Resurrection Church believe in such an outrageous thing?
"Yes, if Mr. Loren can really plot alone to cross the northern and southern continents in an instant, then I find him a little scary now."
The secret sentinel priest was a short-haired girl wearing light soft armor under a cotton-padded jacket. She sat by the window with an expressionless face and nodded.
Loren looked like a good, pure-hearted guy as always, and it didn't seem like he was lying.
"Teacher Loren, if you pull your hair up, your eyes will change and you will smile meaningfully, wow."
The guardian knight beside Loren was still wearing a formal knight's attire even on the train. His hair color was similar to that of the Dark Sentinel Priest. He was the Dark Sentinel Priest's younger brother, but he got along better with the Healing Priest and they acted together more often.
Loren listened to the three of them joking and could only look out the window and sigh to himself.
Loren now actually feels that reputation is a very scary thing.
Some media believed the rumors from the Northern Continent and began to exaggerate the story, saying that they saw the shadow of the Holy Emperor in him. If troubled times came, people in the Northern Continent would want to push him to this position regardless of whether he wanted to be the leader or not.
Fortunately, his reputation in the southern continent is only relatively good. Not to mention the non-allied Kreming Empire, even in the allied Kingdom United Parliament's next Speaker candidate, he is only considered but ranked at the bottom.
The previous defeat of the Destruction Branch's attack earned him some reputation among the countries in the United Parliament of the Kingdom, but this luck would not happen again.
Loren has always believed that luck must be exchanged for merit.
He always said this to Mi Gaiya.
As a result, Migaia always scared Hyperion when she was little, saying that she would have bad luck if she didn't accumulate merits. Of course, sometimes Migaia would also use magic tricks to "control" Hyperion's luck to tease her when Hyperion was naughty. In the end, Hyperion firmly believed that "luck is linked to merits", and she treated Hyperion better than all the children of the same age around her since she was a child.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, Mi Gaiya's behavior is really a loss of merit, and he himself is a person who does not want merit...
"Although the Bishop of Destruction has left the Kingdom of Hutton after the last failure, the Son of Destruction Salomon may still be staying there."
While Loren was thinking, the discussion of three clergymen interrupted his thoughts.
They seemed to be discussing new intelligence from the United Kingdom Council regarding the Destruction Branch.
Bishop of Destruction Ivanos has always been a person who will not tolerate. Even if he tolerates it, it only means that he will take even more cruel revenge in the future, including interest.
"When you three see Salomon, don't hesitate and run as fast as you can."
Loren's tone became much more serious, which gave the other three people goosebumps.
"This guy is completely different from the Saint of Destruction. If he beats you three, you'll all be finished in just one or two minutes."
Loren continued warningly.
It's not that the three sixth-level priests that he had trained with all his efforts were not strong, but that the seventh-level Salomon was definitely not an enemy that the Light Elite Team could fight against.
Even if there are people who take the damage, people who heal, and people who output damage, it is still not enough.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"We also want to be like Junior Brother Lanqi and bring honor to Teacher Loren."
The Guardian Knight sighed.
"The Saint of Destruction is the Saint of Destruction, and the Son of Destruction is the Son of Destruction. In my heart, you are already great. No matter how outrageous Lanci is, he can't kill the Son of Destruction. Don't think too much."
Whenever Loren thought of Lanqi, he felt mixed emotions.
"If the Son of Destruction really dies one day, and dies at the hands of Lanqi, do you think the Dimension Bishop will really give him money?"
"I think he was joking."
"Don't tell me, if the Dimension Bishop really transfers 20,000 pounds, I can't say whether the Destruction Bishop will go crazy, and whether the Destruction Bishop will kill the Dimension Bishop or Lanqi first."
Listening to the discussion of the three students, Loren covered his forehead again.
"Ivanos might come after me first and fight me to the death. I don't want to fight with that crazy woman."
Although Loren had never dealt with the Dimension Bishop Toliado, he always felt that this guy was a super bastard. Originally, Ranchi killed the Saint of Destruction, and the Bishop of Destruction Ivanos reluctantly admitted defeat and did not come to kill Ranchi personally. As a result, he was provoked by the Dimension Bishop and reported by the media of the United Parliament of the Southern Continent Kingdom. All countries knew about this joke, and Ivanos might really turn the table.
Upon hearing this, the three clergymen all became a little nervous.
Ivanos, the holder of the [Original Slate-Fire], who is at the pinnacle of the eighth level, may repeat the legendary disaster of national destruction once he really goes crazy.
People of their level would be reduced to ashes in an instant under the world-destroying flames.
"But don't worry. Even if Ivanos is strong, he can't attack the Kingdom of Hutton alone."
Seeing this, Loren realized that he had scared them too much, so he explained gently.
Nanwantina has border defense barriers and city defense barriers. Even if the cardinal sneaks in and dares to act rashly, it will immediately trigger an alarm directly to the royal capital and suppress the negative gain effects within the barrier.
“By the way, will there ever be a time when the barrier fails?”
The secret sentinel priest suddenly asked.
"This has happened before, so we have added more restrictions on authority. If you want to interfere with the barrier of the border territory, you must get the key from the capital and the key from the Lord's Mansion of Nanwantina at the same time. After emergency braking the barrier, you can attack the energy station to prevent it from restarting. Only then can you possibly stop the barrier."
Loren responded, and for some reason he began to feel a little uneasy.
If one has infiltration capabilities far exceeding those of the secret sentry priest, it is possible that one can obtain the key to the Nanwantina Lord's Mansion, but there is almost no possibility that the key in the royal capital will be stolen.
The atmosphere in the car was very warm, and from time to time the passengers could be heard chatting and laughing. From afar, the main city of Nanwantina Territory was getting closer and closer.
Loren looked at the full moon that had risen early outside the window and was emitting a faint red glow. Apart from the fact that the moon phase was a little strange tonight, it didn't feel like anything was going to happen.
