Chapter 605: The Knights Hospitaller
As priests of the Silent Church, they had used flails to hammer faith into the skulls of many pagans, but this seemed to be the first time they were hit.
I can only say that the effect is really good. They looked at Gwen evasively. The image of Gwen swinging the flail and leaving afterimages left a deep impression on them. I wonder if they will have nightmares.
Ignati also looked at Nini deeply.
When he was in the north, he had seen the Banshee from afar, but the situation was urgent at the time and he didn't ask any more questions.
Here, they, the burial groundsmen, were merely guests, so it was naturally not appropriate for them to interfere too much.
The people of the Silent Temple don't know much about the Banshees. The Banshees are restricted by the distance of the symbiotic contract. There are not many of them stationed in the North during battles, and they rarely actually participate in combat. Zeus also does not position them as the main force on the battlefield.
Therefore, although the Silent Temple had inquired about the expeditionary force, it was only limited to mortal troops, and it did not know much about extraordinary creatures such as banshees.
The understanding I have now is still due to Gwen's input.
So when the Undertakens saw Nini, in addition to their instinctive vigilance, they also felt a bit of fear from Gwen.
"You are... um, a supernatural being from the deep sea, then..."
"There's no pollution about her."
Nora interrupted.
"Not only is she untainted, but all the Banshees are untainted. The taint lies with Castel. Well, you can see for yourselves."
The undertakers looked at each other, and then all looked at Nora. Her words were indeed a little strange.
Pollution is pollution. Is there no danger in Castres?
Or is Castel, like the Church of Poseidon in the past, trying to reach the extraordinary by actively embracing pollution?
If this is true, then it is quite dangerous. Although actively exposing yourself to pollution can gain knowledge and power, you will gradually lose your sanity, which is irreversible. In other words, going crazy is a matter of time.
As for the extraordinary creatures in front of us
"I am Ignatius, the Patriarch of the Holy Temple of Silence." After pondering for a moment, Ignatius clenched his fists, crossed them in front of him, and saluted.
This is the official ritual of the Church of Silence, but it is rarely used. When the priests of the church are not going to fight, they also like to wear armor and raise the flail as a salute.
Nini doesn't look like a mad monster, and her current behavior is very friendly. What's more important is Nora's attitude.
Ignati knew very well that Nora could not return to the Temple of Silence, but there was no direct conflict between the two. On the contrary, she was the link between the temple and Castel.
Ignati also trusts Nora's character. In the past, she broke with the Holy Temple for the resistance army. Ignati admired her courage.
Nini had taken the initiative to come up and say hello before, which was also a gesture of goodwill, so the first contact between the Banshee and the Undertakens was spent in peace.
Nini's side was peaceful, but the mind connection between the banshees was as lively as a boiling pot.
"It's bad, the Silent Temple has been fooled."
"It has to be Nini, she really can act."
"When Nini's newspaper comes out in a couple of days, I hope these priests can hold their own."
"This is hilarious! It can last two days? Didn't you see Nini shaking hands with two hands while the other four were frantically writing behind her?"
"Where's the Lord? Please save them. Let Nini handle the reception. Isn't the image of the banshee completely ruined?"
"Does the banshee still have an image?"
Xius was in his office, happily watching Nini's live broadcast, with no intention of intervening at all.
He only vaguely guessed that Big Gwen might be able to awaken these sleeping priests, but he didn't expect it to be so efficient.
The person had just been sent over and he hadn't even sat down in the office when Gwen's application for a helmet came in.
Zeus opened the mind link and saw Gwen swinging the flail, leaving afterimages. If Nora and Richard hadn't been watching, he would have wanted to stop it.
This awakening method is too simple and crude.
I thought they were going to light incense and use the smoke to perform some supernatural ritual, but what happened was that they lit the incense and hit my head with the smoke.
But speaking of this incense
Xius recalled that when he first met Nora, she used incense to play an introduction screen of the North for him. Now he thought that she was more restrained. According to the tradition of the Silent Temple, she should have played the introduction screen while smashing things.
This method of transmitting information seems quite efficient. I wonder if it can be expanded. Then teachers will walk into the classroom with flails and hammer knowledge into blank heads one by one.
You know what, it’s quite exciting.
After noting this idea on his to-do list, Xiu Si continued to watch the live broadcast with great interest.
After Richard and Ignati gave a brief explanation, he hurriedly left the hospital. There were a lot of things to do at the test site recently, and many projects had reached a critical stage. He didn't have time to take the guests for a stroll.
With Hughes's tacit consent, Nini volunteered to introduce Castel to them, and Nora and Gwen also accompanied them.
Nora followed naturally because of her identity, and Gwen followed for safety reasons. In case someone was scared and went crazy, Gwen could use the flail to provide emergency rescue.
As for whether Gwen would go crazy, Hughes sighed. It would be good if she didn't drive Caster crazy.
Thus, a wonderful combination was formed with Nini and Gwen holding Nora leading the team, followed by hundreds of buryers.
According to etiquette, the priests of the Silent Church should have waited here for an audience with Hughes, but Nora's words aroused their curiosity about Castel, so they did not care about that and went to visit first after getting the consent from Nini on Hughes' behalf.
Ignati, who was walking in front of the crowd, had a flickering look in his eyes. In fact, this somewhat impulsive behavior had another consideration - he wanted to see the real Castel.
If he followed the arrangements of the local lord, he would only see what he wanted him to see. However, Ignati really had high expectations for Castel, so he was willing to be a little reckless to see it with his own eyes.
He couldn't explain where this expectation came from. Perhaps, as Nora said, he was also tired of the repetitive fate of the temple.
The world keeps spiraling and not rising.
Nini led everyone out of the room and walked outside, introducing them casually.
"This is the Knights Hospitaller, a place where patients are treated. Mr. Richard, who was just there, is one of the acting deans here. He is also in charge of research and development on the island and is probably one of the busiest people in Castel."
"One of them? Are there other deans?" one of the buried people asked curiously.
"Yes, the other one is Ash, but her medical skills are more average."
"Medical skills are average? Is she in charge of administration?"
"No, she's in charge of the fights."
