Chapter 159: Chapter 131: Just Let Him Live a Little Longer! (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_3

As the sheriff of Flashgold Town, he was the first person responsible for defense, and naturally, as soon as he heard Flashgold Town was attacked by cultists, he rushed back immediately.

Rein exchanged a few polite words with Lagaray before being called aside by Hamilton.

Rudolph, the head of the Church, and four Temple Knights, upon hearing that cultists attacked Flashgold Town, also decided to return at once.

After all, the Evil Spirit Knight was deep in Nightingale Forest, posing a latent threat that would not erupt immediately.

The recently restless cult was somewhat troublesome for the Monsoon and Ocean Goddess Church.

Thus, Rudolph and the Temple Knights, following Hamilton, began to examine the bodies of several Black Flame monks on the wagon.

"Such fierce swordsmanship!" a Temple Knight exclaimed.

The others nodded in agreement. They, as Temple Knights who had combated them, knew all too well how difficult it was to split a Black Flame monk in half.

"Eh! This one is Metry." Rudolph's eyes suddenly narrowed.

Although he appeared expressionless, his heart was already in turmoil.

Although he did not recognize the other two, he had had several encounters with this Metry, who always managed to escape.

The man had once been a Wizard Apprentice, but somehow got involved with the Black Flame Church. Allegedly due to his proficiency in a certain "technique", he was highly regarded by the upper echelons of the Black Flame Church.

Unexpectedly, he had died here.

Although he didn't believe that these three Black Flame monks had all been killed by the relatively youthful-looking young man before him,

the facts seemed to keep reminding him that this was the only explanation!

Moreover, with so many witnesses around, logically, this incident couldn't be fabricated.

Of course, for the Monsoon and Ocean Goddess Church, this incident was undoubtedly a great opportunity, whether or not Rein had killed them didn't really matter.

What mattered was, the Black Flame Church had lost four Transcendents in Flashgold Town, which had severely weakened them!

"Eh! Rudolph, something's off. There are one, two... six halves, which is the bodies of three Black Flame monks. But... where is the body of the fourth?" a detail-oriented Temple Knight suddenly asked.

Right then, Matteo pointed to a clump of black ash outside the church square: "Look! The other one is over there."

Everyone immediately followed Matteo's gaze.

All they saw was a large pile of black ash.

Rudolph and the few Temple Knights quickly walked over. Although the person had turned into a pile of ash, they were still able to detect some clues. Searᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Rudolph, it's a human skin armor." A Temple Knight used his longsword to poke around in the ash for a moment, picked up a thumb-sized fragment, examined it, and then looked up at Rudolph with a face full of astonishment to report.

"What! Say that again!" Rudolph suddenly showed a trace of astonishment.

"Rudolph, it's an Apostle's medallion." Another Temple Knight's longsword seemed to have touched something hard; after clearing it, he cried out in surprise.

A diamond-shaped black flame medallion appeared before everyone.

"This is an Apostle!" Rudolph could no longer maintain his calm expression, staring dumbstruck at the medallion.

"An Apostle??" The other two Temple Knights also widened their eyes in shock, mouths agape.

The exclamations of the church members, particularly the always composed Rudolph, immediately drew the attention of everyone nearby.

Whether it was Knight Lloyd, Swordsmanship Instructor Perez, or Hamilton, they all turned to look immediately.

At this time, Baron Alonso was as if struck by lightning, standing in shock!

He roared inwardly: "What! Another Black Flame Apostle died?"

"To think that this is a Black Flame Apostle!"

"An Apostle, even more powerful than veteran knights!"

Basically, without a Peak Knight appearing, there had never been a record of a 'Black Flame Apostle' being killed.

At most, it had been 'Black Flame Apostles' being repelled by the combined forces of several veteran knights!

Although his relationship with the Black Flame Church was a mutually beneficial partnership, he was unaware of the specific personnel involved in a certain operation of the church.

He had previously heard that all four Transcendents sent by the Black Flame Church had been killed by Rein, which had already shocked him immensely!

But he hadn't expected that among those four, there was also an Apostle of the Black Flame Church that had been killed!

This honestly shocked him beyond belief, shocking him to the core!

Compared to everyone else, obviously, the church members — Rudolph and the four Temple Knights, understood more about the significance and... the difficulty of this feat.

At that moment, Rein was being pulled aside by Hamilton, having a separate conversation.

"Rein, did you kill all four Black Flame Church Transcendents by yourself?" Hamilton was also astounded, sizing up his 'capable subordinate' as he asked.

Though he had estimated Rein's combat capability as high as possible, the scene before him still left him utterly shocked!
