eadx ();? Are you alright? "
said Ron, concerned, as Omega walked away.
As soon as Kathleen moved, a heart-wrenching pain came from her broken arm, causing her to break out in a cold sweat. She forcibly endured the pain as she shook her head and whispered, "She won't die yet!"
She smiled at Ron. "Thank you, Ron, but if you hadn't come to save me, I'm afraid I'd be dead today. Those guys wouldn't have let me go!"
When she thought back to the time when she had fallen into Tommy's hands, Catherine's heart was filled with fear. She was not afraid of death, but she was afraid that Tommy would use all sorts of methods to humiliate her.
Ron nodded and smiled. You and I are friends who have gone through thick and thin together. Since you have something to do, of course I won't leave you behind! "
Catherine's face reddened as she recalled the time she escaped with Ron in the Holy Roman Empire capital, St. Paul. She stole a glance at Ron, then lowered her head, looking a little uneasy.
Ron looked at Catherine's somewhat twisted arm and frowned. "Is your arm really okay?" Since you're already injured like this, are you really not going to have any treatment? "
Kathleen was already breaking out in a cold sweat from the pain. She could only force a smile and say, "Then I can only bear with it. You're not a priest. Just wait until I go back to my sister's place and find a priest to heal you …"
Ron laughed, "Then there's no need to go through all this trouble, I can cure you …"
As he said this, Ron released the zombie Aryan from his space bag. Under Kathleen's surprised gaze, he used a healing technique. Soon, her injuries were completely healed. Kathleen was no longer surprised to see so many of her magical abilities.
Kathleen was clearly more interested in Speck than in the healing Aryan. She looked around him, unable to tear her eyes away.
"What a powerful battle puppet, and it can actually release a domain …"
Ron smiled, "It's just the strength of a great swordsman, so the released domain is not the complete domain. Otherwise, Beamon wouldn't have been able to escape!"
"That's amazing!" "If only I had a combat puppet like him!"
Kathleen sighed. If she had the ability, she and her sister Juliana wouldn't have to hide every day.
Just as they were talking, Vivian ran over, panting. She was surprised to see the two of them.
"Vivian, you're back. I was just about to go find you …" As he spoke, he introduced the two of them.
"Hello!" Catherine nodded politely.
"Hello!" "Ron, where are we going now?"
Tommy had already run away, and his identity was most likely exposed. Logically speaking, he should be returning to the Roland Empire by now, but what about recruiting new students?
If I can't recruit any students, then it would be equivalent to returning empty-handed. Ron's face was somewhat anxious. Or not to return?
As if reading Ron's mind, Catherine smiled and said, "Ron, why don't you come with me to Manchester?"
"Manchester?" "What is this place?"
"This is the base of our Ebia's Resistance Army!" Catherine thought for a moment.
"Aren't you going to recruit students? That's our territory, and there are a lot of kids around the age of ten there. I can make them your students … " Catherine said with a smile on her face.
"Really?" When Ron heard this, his eyes lit up. This way, there would be hope for him...
… ….
The three of them left the Multicolored Stone Castle. After walking for a few days, they finally arrived at a place called Dawn City.
"We're in Dawn. Let's go take a break!" The three of them had been on the road for several days, worn out by the wind and dust. They had not bathed for several days, and their clothes also smelled strange.
"Alright!" Ron nodded agreement.
Judging from the corner of the castle in the dense forest, the city wasn't too big, but it was more like a town.
"This place used to be very prosperous, but ever since the Holy Crusaders occupied this place, it has declined a lot!" Catherine's eyes were sad.
It was only after entering Dawn City that Ron was able to see the entirety of what had once been one of the most important towns in the southwest of the Kingdom of Ebia. The mottled city walls, the wide, dilapidated streets, and the vast expanse of deserted houses gave him a picture of what had once been vast but had never been there.
What most surprised Ron was that there were a large number of Holy Crusaders stationed here, keeping watch over the streets of the city of Dawn from three to five steps, watching the people pass by.
Seeing these fully armed Holy Crusaders, the eyes of the people on the streets were full of fear, fear mixed with a strong anger, just like the surging undercurrent under a tranquil lake.
This was the city of Dawn, the epitome of the kingdom of Ebia being conquered.
"Halt, what are you doing?" Just as Ron and the other two were looking around, a voice shouted out, its tone filled with indifference.
Several soldiers of the Holy Crusader Army quickly walked over, looking at the three of them with suspicion.
Kathleen's pupils shrank as she lowered her head so that the other person wouldn't see her. Ron understood and walked up with a smile. "We're passing by mercenaries, please let us know!" As he spoke, he handed the mercenary medal over to the soldier.
Behind the medallion, there was a glimmer of light. It was the light of the shining gold coins, illuminating the eyes of the soldiers.
The soldier's face softened a little, and he calmly accepted the mercenary medal. He pretended to pick it up and look at it a few times, then handed it back to Ron.
"Not bad, as expected of a mercenary. Very good, you can leave now!" After saying that, he stuffed the gold coins into his clothes and left.
After that person had left, Kathleen then raised her head, looking at his back, she fiercely cursed, "These scum, sooner or later they will die a horrible death!" He turned to Ron and gave him a hard look. "What do you think you're going to do with the money? More money? "
Ron smiled and did not answer. It was fine to spend a few dollars to avoid trouble, but for him, things that could be solved with money were not a big deal.
As they walked past a street corner, a grand building appeared in front of them.
"The Divine Cathedral!"
Ron's eyes hardened as he looked at the grand and imposing building. In his dream, he vaguely felt that the disappearance of the Necromancy Magic had something to do with the Holy Church.
At this moment, he was attracted by the sound of an argument not too far away.
"You … "What do you want?"
In a shop selling beast materials, there were more than ten Holy Church priests surrounding an old man who was about 60 years old. The old man had a panicked expression on his face. There was a 30 year old young man standing next to him who was suppressing his anger.
The leader of the priests stood in front of the shop and said aggressively, "What do you want? Do you really not know, or are you just pretending that you don't know?
"I... I gave it to you last month! " Surrounded by more than ten priests, the old man was a bit lacking in confidence.
"Last month? What about this month? " The priest said coldly.
"Monsignor, last month's faith tax was twenty gold coins, but …" But to suddenly raise it to forty gold coins this month... This … How can I afford this? My lord, I. "My family still needs to eat …" The old man started to complain.
"Eat? You don't have to pay faith tax for your meals? You don't need to believe in the God of Light when you eat? Let me tell you, the God of Light is above everything else. No matter where you are, the God of Light is looking at you … "
"The divine teachings stipulate that anyone who is disrespectful to the God of Light is a heretic. I'm telling you, if you don't pay the tax on faith, you are disrespectful to the God of Light, a heretic. Do you believe that I will set up a fire rack here and burn all of you here?"
"Yes!" "Burn to death..." The other priests glared at him viciously, their wolf-like eyes fixed on him.
"I... "I …" The old man trembled, unable to speak.
"It seems like you don't have the money to take it out!" At this time, the priest in the lead sneered and waved his hand, "Since that's the case, let's move all of these strange beast materials out of the way and smash this place down for me!"
"Yes sir!" The tens of priests answered in unison. When they spoke, their eyes were filled with greed.
Just as he was about to say it, a dozen or so priests suddenly rushed into the store and smashed the shelves filled with all the refined beast materials. At the same time, they threw out a kick and knocked over the shelves.
"You … "You can't do this..." The old man grew anxious. Trembling, he rushed towards those priests, but was ruthlessly pushed to the ground.
"Father... "Father …" The young man beside him rushed over to help his father up. His eyes were filled with hatred as he stared at the priests.
This … It was a naked robbery, in the name of God, and Ron was trembling with rage, clenching his fists.
"Damn it!"
Ron was very angry as he saw this scene. But now he knew that Holy Church was a giant monster to him. It was like crushing an ant to kill him. He had no choice but to endure it. Chapter error, point this report (registered free)
