Chapter 755: Familiarity Under the Holy Light
The camp of the Church of Holy Light is obviously much better than that of the rebels.
Normal fortresses, normal tents, and even the most magnificent mobile church. This church can be transformed and combined at any time and place, with countless magic gun barrels extending from the inside, making it a siege weapon.
Patrols composed of a large number of soldiers patrolled the camp day and night. Carriages of all sizes loaded with different goods came in and out. Devout believers came to offer offerings and left with happy faces.
Faith and war coexist in this camp at this moment.
Even when the war reached its most difficult moments, the order within the camp was never disturbed. Everyone was equally bathed in the holy light, and everything was in order.
However, today, this rare peace was broken because——
"It's Caius, they're back! Hurry and open the city gates to welcome them!"
"Wait, why don't I see the Magic Pegasus? Did they fail to retrieve it?"
"Something's wrong. Why are all the knights injured?"
At this moment, the Holy Light Knights led by Caius dragged their exhausted and wounded bodies back. Their miserable appearance attracted the attention of everyone in the camp.
Then it caused an uproar among the crowd.
Because they had never seen this elite team full of brave men in such a miserable state.
Even their armor was gone! Only their thin inner linings remained! Some were left with only tattered clothes!
Caius and Anleisi looked the best, at least their armor was relatively intact, but their faces looked very ugly.
What's going on? Could it be that we are encountering an unprecedentedly powerful enemy this time?
Even the largest operation launched by the Spark Church against Caius and his men did not make this team look so embarrassed. Who is the enemy?
"We want to see the Bishop!"
Anleisi, who was riding on a horse, bent down and grabbed a soldier who was stunned with shock. Her pretty face was full of fatigue and a hint of anger.
"Lord, the bishop is in the church and he is praying," the soldier was frightened and stammered.
"Get my companions settled. They need rest."
She threw the bag carried by the horse under her to the ground. The bag fell to the ground and scattered, revealing various items on the ground.
Green flowers, zombie soldier helmet, flame pot, bone meal, and shit block.
Since medicines made from green flowers and herbs are widely circulated in the army, and soldiers have been exposed to them for a long time, they are also familiar with these things and naturally know their origins.
He was stunned when he saw these things, because the green flower looked very fresh?
The soil on the roots is even still wet, this thing looks like it’s freshly unearthed!
Where, where did it come from?
Although she could see the soldier's doubts, Anleixi was not so idle as to explain the whole story to him.
After giving the order to her Holy Light Knights to disband and rest, she turned and left, walking towards where the bishop was.
As for Caius, he was not good at reporting, and since he had contributed the most along the way, his sister asked him to go back and rest quickly.
They ran for a long time on foot, and only after they luckily found horses did they speed up and finally arrived back at this time.
This was already much later than the originally scheduled time for their return, and there was already a lot of discussion in the camp. Now that they were returning in such a badly disabled state, who knew how much gossip they would be subject to in the camp.
"Long——"
Anleisi bit her lip and reached out to push open the heavy door of the church.
Behind the gate is the statue of the God of Holy Light overlooking the visitors. Soft light shines down from its head, giving the statue a sacred meaning.
And under the statue, a young woman dressed in a pure white robe was looking up at the statue. Her dazzling golden hair was tied up with intricate craftsmanship, and she looked quite beautiful under the light.
She is the bishop of the Church of Holy Light who is in charge of commanding the camp here:
Megan Basque
Megan heard the movement behind her, but did not turn around. Instead, she continued to maintain the prayer posture with her hands clasped together. The beads made of crystal in her hands sparkled in the light. She closed her eyes and asked, "Are you in trouble?"
Anleisi looked at the woman in front of her who seemed too young even among all the bishops. She was so young and yet she held a high position, which was something many people dreamed of.
There are many legends about Megan in the church.
Some say that the other party's origins are unknown but he is highly valued by the Pope, and there must be an unknown background behind him.
There are also people saying that Meghan is actually the Pope’s illegitimate daughter, and she was dragged out now because the time is ripe in order to gain merit and gild herself.
There are also people who agree with Meghan's management ability and think she is a good manager, but it is too early for her to become a bishop.
An Leixi didn't have any special feelings for this guy. They were just partners, that is, colleagues.
From the moment she met Megan, she always had a peaceful and elegant smile on her face. She was never hurried or flustered in doing things, revealing her elegant composure. She had never been seen to panic.
It feels like there should be nothing in this world that can make her look panicked, right?
Anleixi took a deep breath and said, "We encountered the Thane dungeon."
“Crash!”
The crystal beads in Megan's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the beads rolled around when the rope broke.
"Huh?" Anleixi widened her eyes. What did she see?
"My hand slipped," Megan didn't turn around, so her expression couldn't be seen clearly. However, she managed to hold it in for a long time before finally saying, "So, the Thane Dungeon has appeared. What then?"
Did I see her shaking???
Anleisi tilted her head in confusion. What was going on? Could the Sean Dungeon cause this bishop, who was known for his calmness, to lose his composure like never before?
But she quickly adjusted herself, suppressed her curiosity, and told everyone everything she had seen and heard along the way and in the Sean dungeon.
“.”
Meghan responded with a long silence.
Finally, when she could no longer remain silent, she slowly spoke:
"Zheyang, cough cough cough, is that so?"
Did I just hear her voice crack?
An Leixi felt that something was really weird these days, even Bishop Megan became abnormal.
At this moment, Megan, having calmed down, spoke as usual, "This is indeed an important matter. You did a great job, Anleisi. It's a rare opportunity for you to return safely from that dungeon. Go rest. You must be exhausted. I need to discuss the action regarding that dungeon with the Pope and the bishops first."
She turned around and smiled peacefully, making people feel like they were in the spring breeze.
Anleisi nodded, and when she felt that the bishop had returned to normal, she turned and left.
Wait until she leaves and closes the door.
"Bang!"
Megan fell to the ground as if her legs were numb. She took a breath, clasped her hands together and trembled slightly as she muttered to herself:
"Why did that demon come here?"
